“Jeffrey and Gisselle were great! We receive lots of updates and pictures of Winston during his stay. They have a wonderful fenced yard for the dogs to run around in. Winston had a great time - it was like doggie camp!”

“Sandra does an outstanding job of taking care of our dog. She has boarded our dog twice for one-week stays. With a large, fenced-in yard, our dog has plenty of room to run. Sandra gives loving attention to our dog and provides pictures and videos. Sandra truly loves dogs, and I highly recommend her service.”

“This was my first time ever using a pet sitter and thank goodness I found Amanda!! Wow! She had an outstanding response rate to all of my texts and calls. She even sent me pictures of my dog to reassure me she was ok because she knew I was nervous about her being an escape artist. When I picked up my dog both times, my girl seemed so content & happy. Amanda and her husband have a big beautiful home and give lots of love and care to their animals. I’m using her anytime I’m in this area again. Such a relief 🦋”

“The F. family was wonderful to work with. They were very sweet and kind to our Cha Cha. They made her feel right at home. Our greet and meet was perfect it gave us 95% confidence we picked the right family. They sent us lovely pictures of Cha Cha just about every day. A lovely video displaying Cha Cha's strong affection for them when she dragged her blankie to be next them at all times. So...cute. It was extremely helpful and comforting for us to be out of the country on vacation and not having to worry about our precious cargo back home. She was very relaxed and happy when we picked her up. We would definitely use the F. family again. We and Cha Cha thank you all for the wonderful experience!”

About: Hi there! Ive been caring for pets for over 20 years, and I truly treat every dog like one of my own.I have experience with everything from training energetic puppies to providing gentle care for senior dogs who need a little extra love and patience. At home, I have three dogs of my own-an 11 year old senior named Cassie Lou, a playful Australian Kelpie named Sage that is 5yrs old, and a curious 1 year old puppy named Pepper that is a Mini Aussie & Chihuahua mix. All of our dogs enjoy other dogs as well as children. I am familiar with all the unique stages of life. Over the years, I've helped friends, family and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing and giving their pets lots of attention while they're away. You can count on me to make your pets feel safe, loved and right at home while you're gone. I do not work outside the home, so I am available 24/7 to care for your pets! My flexible schedule allows me to give them plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Your dog will feel right at home here! I only care for dogs and make sure each one gets the attention and comfort they deserve. Whether your pup prefers a cozy crate or to sleep on the bed, they're welcome to do whatever makes them most comfortable-even curl up on the couch. We take regular walks and tailor exercise to each dog's energy level, from relaxed seniors to playful puppies. Every boarding stay includes a FREE BATH, so your furry friend goes home happy, clean and loved. safety and comfort always come first here!
“Katelyn was wonderful! She was able to board our dog at the last minute. (The other person I boarded with got sick and we were packing the car to leave when I found out.) Katelyn was very conscientious and texted with me when our dog wouldn't eat. Katelyn was able to get her eating again. She also took her on daily walks. I would absolutely let our dog stay with Katelyn and her family again.”

“Len exceeded my expectations! My dog seemed to love staying with her and her family. I was super worried about leaving him as he gets separation anxiety but he felt right at home! He even slept in the bed with her. She was very responsive and sent texts and pics every day. Highly recommend Len and I will definitely be using her again!”

“Cassandra was absolutely awesome!! My Gracie LOVED being with her and the huge fences in yard to run around. Cassandra shared daily pics and updates with me which was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend her to care for your pet!!”


“Kinsey felt so comfortable with Yuwadee and her family!! I received lots of updates and pics. Kinsey loved the big fenced yard and freedom to run around off leash. We have found our favorite dog sitter!!”

“Tracey had excellent communication and excellent care for our dogs. When we first arrived our dogs went right up to her and were happy to be with her. She had a small fenced in yard which our goldendoodle enjoyed. We would definitely use her for dog sitting again.”

“I would absolutely give Melinda & McKenna 10 out of 5 if I could! Melinda was so responsive setting up a meet and greet with the introduction to her home. I immediately felt such great connection! Gracie Mae was welcomed for a long weekend stay. Sweet Eli was so welcoming and such a great companion. From the pictures you would have thought they were kindred spirits. The communication, updates, pictures throughout the weekend certainly put my curiosity to ease immediately just after the first day ! The love of their home to your furry baby is above and beyond! I’m looking forward to the next getaway and I know Gracie will be looking forward to her next stay! This is truly a spa retreat filled with so much love! Melinda & McKenna you are the best and thank you for the abundance of love!”

“ALWAYS A GREAT EXPERIENCE! Milo truly lovessss Stephanie and her sweet sweet dog Pugxy. He gets so excited to see them everytime and I know he has so much fun playing when he is there. Stephanie ALWAYS sends pictures throughout the visit and wipes him down and gives him a bandana before he leaves. She is such an amazing sitter, I am glad I found someone I can trust my baby with. I would reccomend her to any and everyone I know. Thank you again!!”

“Josie was wonderful! She was very accommodating for our young German Shepherd, as we were out of town for a few days. I was able to travel in peace knowing Nova was in great care! She even accommodated a late pickup.”

“Yui was great! We haven’t used a Rover sitter since COVID began as we now work from home. Leaving our dog with someone was a concern given that it had been years since he was last away from us. Yui understood our dog’s special diet and was very good about his individualized care. She had a few other dogs in her watch and they were all calm and well-cared for.”

“Chayna was wonderful. This was a last minute booking and she responded promptly. She kept us informed with how he was doing, and sent pictures and videos. All the pictures showed Butters having a great time making new friends and being loved on. I didn't feel one ounce of fear leaving him with her. I highly recommend, and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Chayna!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Tammy as our dog sitter for the first time. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease by prioritizing Milo’s safety and well-being. She was extremely attentive and caring, ensuring everything was handled with love and professionalism. We especially appreciated her frequent updates and photos, which kept us reassured and connected while we were away. Tammy went above and beyond to make sure Milo felt comfortable and cared for. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter — we will definitely be using her services again!”


“Bailey was amazing! We had a new puppy and this was his first time staying anywhere. Bailey was extremely communicative, quick to respond with any questions, and a wealth of knowledge. Our boy had so much fun, we’d love to come back sometime ❤️”

“Needed a sitter on short notice while our apartment was being fumigated, I was so grateful for Jennifer taking them in while I was at work. She's very kind, gentle, and caring, providing perfect care for both our sweet kitties. One of our cats had a bit of irritation in her eye from some dirt, and she was able to give her the eye drops we left with her. Absolutely will book her again if/when I need a sitter, you can tell how much she loves what she does.”

Sandy was an absolute joy. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and cares for them very well. She was very accommodating and kind. She sent frequent photo and video updates of our Ranger and gladly he adored her pups. He had a blast in her big fenced yard, playing tug of war, and attempting to swim in the pool. We plan to use Sandy in the future if we ever need boarding again and we recommend her highly.

Sandra does an outstanding job of taking care of our dog. She has boarded our dog twice for one-week stays. With a large, fenced-in yard, our dog has plenty of room to run.
