Ivy had a great time with James and I will definitely be using them again. Typically when meeting someone new, Ivy is timid, but with James they were fast friends and any anxiety I had about leaving her with someone new was gone. Highly recommend!

Amy and her family treated my little furbaby Buddy like a member of their family. Not only did he receive excellent care but the pictures, videos and updates Amy sent put me at ease on my trip knowing he was doing so well. I would not hesitate to use Amy again.

So easy to trust Nancy with my Great Dane! He’s a big goofy boy and she was so wonderful with him. I also love how methodical she is about introducing her dogs and other dogs to one another in a calm and safe manner. 10/10 highly recommend!!

Great Experience! While watching my puppy over the weekend they provided consistent updates the entire time. I really appreciated the regular photos and messages that gave a peace of mind knowing my puppy was doing well while I was away. My puppy also got a ton of playtime and attention!

Tia is awesome! My pup’s first overnight and day camp went great. She sent lots of cute pics and the sweetest little write-up of how his stay went. I felt so comfortable leaving my little guy with her, especially after getting to meet the other dogs and seeing how calm and loving she was in her interactions with all of them. We are so grateful that our dog has a safe and nurturing place to socialize, play, and tire himself out! We will definitely be back and he can’t wait 😊

Michelle is wonderful! Phoenix warmed up quite quickly to Michelle and immediately took to playing with her pups. Made it a point to stop by before heading home so Phoenix could say goodbye to her new friends. Planning to schedule a day or two when back in the area just so Phoenix can see her friends again.

Emily and her family took great care of D-Rex and were very flexible. They sent us a lot of pictures and kept us updated. So glad we found them in such short notice and they were able to accommodate us.

Mary was the absolute best! My poor pup got 2 front paw injuries during our hike at the Appalachian trail. She came last minute to pick him up and care for him. She did such a great job that my pup came back very improved! I know he had a great time and is recommend for anyone and everyone to use Mary. She was so caring and sweet that I gave her hugs before leaving. Thank you Mary! You brought so much peace for me to complete my section hike of the trail!

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I am a trustworthy retired RN who is looking to spoil your dogs while you are away. I am a non-smoker and very active with walking/hikes and pickleball. I am retired now for 5 years and spend my day actively with hike/bikes/pickleball to name a few activities. I am available most days with proper notice. I do not have a fenced yard but do have a 7-year-old dog named Dori who gets her exercise walking daily. If you pup likes fenced in yards caring for your dog would be better at your home.

If I could give 10 Stars, I would!!! Megan is the best…period. She communicates very well, my dog adores her, she’s diligent about bringing him outside for exercise, and she’s been unbelievably flexible! I will use her again and again and again!!

My experience with Amanda was outstanding! I was nervous about leaving my small older dog with someone new but the entire experience went very well. Amanda asked a lot of questions about him beforehand and kept in touch with pictures or information about how he was each day. I will definitely feel comfortable using Amanda each time we go away and hope she will be available.
