Our boys seemed to enjoy staying with Kassie- she loved on them and they loved having other dogs to play with. Our Aussie can be a bit sad/anxious when we leave him- but both our dogs did wonderful. She sent us pics, which was great! I would highly recommend her!! Thanks, Kassie!!

Jaida was very good with Rocco and I loved that he had other dogs to play with. She kept me posted on how Rocco was doing and was responsive when I reached out. I would definitely book with Jaida again!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a kid. I’ve had a variety of breeds such as labs, golden retrievers, Chihuahuas, aussies, etc. I have helped family members with there pets when needed like house sitting, feeding, walks and more! I also have a lab for myself at home I take care of daily! I’m current a full time college student! Anytime around college my time is spent at home with my puppies and can be spent on your pets also! I have a spacious apartment with a walking path right outside my building. We also have a dog park! I can do feedings, walks, and plenty of play time for your pet! I can stay on schedule with pets if needed also as I have a feeding schedule for my lab.

I contacted Anj on a bit of short notice and after booking, she made feel that I had made the right decision immediately. She took great care of Tammy and sent me update and pics frequently. I could definitely contact her to care for Tammy again and would highly recommend her to anyone.
