“Just took our new 2 year old for the first time. Jaime has been watching our 10 year of dog for almost a year now. Both love going to her place. Always love the updates daily to see how much fun they have”

“Ruth and her husband provided excellent care for my dog while I was away. They have great knowledge about dogs and offered a wonderful home away from home for my pup. Highly recommended.”

About: I have owned pets my whole life. I have owned cats and small dogs and even big dogs including Belgian Malinois in my lifetime. I will give your dogs and cats the best love and care while watching them. I am a stay at home dog mom so I have plenty of time to care for other peoples fur babies and give them the best care and love. If your pet stays in my home they will get lots of walks and lots of play time. I have a nice neighborhood for walking.

“Thank you give Joseph 10 Stars I would maybe I could give him two separate reviews and that would add up to 10 Stars. He kept me up to date with videos and photos. My Basset Hound didn't even want to leave. Having Joseph's services available to me really help me out and is going to help me out in the near future. I can't give you enough thanks Joseph!”

“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”


“Christina and Brent are superb! They treat your fur-baby like their own. They took excellent care of my chocolate lab Harlie. I was nervous leaving her for 8 nights while on vacation, but they spoiled her rotten. Christina is great about sending pictures and updates. It was obvious by the pictures that Harlie was being well taken care of and getting lots of love and attention! Thank you Christina and Brent for taking such good care of Harlie! I highly recommend them! You can enjoy your vacation knowing that your fur-baby is being well cared for!”

“Amazing sitter!! Communication was easy and Penelope was so at ease under her care! I had a great experience and I know Penelope did too! It’s so nice to know that she’s not anxious while I’m away!”

“Denita and her husband took care of my bullboxer and my granddaughter’s beagle while the family went on holiday for the long weekend. They were quick to reply if we sent a message, sent pics of our dogs enjoying their stay, and gave us a great overview of their stay when we picked them up. My girl went from shy and insecure to acting like she lived there. Before we booked, we met them and visited for about an hour while our pups got acquainted with them and their pups. I have never left my girl with anyone but family, but now I feel as if I can. Thanks so much!”

“Georgie enjoyed a lot with Kayley and her family. They treated her as their own pack member and shared a bunch of pictures of them having fun every day. Thank you!”

“Carrie is absolutely wonderful. She sent tons of pictures and videos and treated my Buster as her own. I was worried he wouldn’t want to come back! We’ll definitely be using Carrie as our go-to sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking. Thanks for everything, Carrie!”

“Brittany was great! She sent me pictures every day, and told me how good they were doing. She even cleaned their ears! I was very pleased with her and will definitely use her again!”

“Marluce and her family were great. You can tell they love animals. Bella was in good hands. She took Bella for walks and threw the ball with her in their fenced backyard. Bella got along fine with their dog Cassie and we got lots of pics. We will definitely have Bella stay with her again, in fact she is staying with her again this week! Thanks Marluce and family!”
About: Surrounding myself around pets has always given me serenity and peace. I worked at a dog resort where I fed, walked, played with, cleaned up after, and even had nap time with many dogs. I have studied dog behavior and group play through lessons given by my employment at the dog resort. I can administer medication and do my absolute best at following any requirements your fur baby needs! I have a friendly mini golden doodl), a playful toy Australian Shepherd, and two sweet cats whom I love to pieces! I also work from home and have a very flexible schedule. If you choose to get your baby taken care of by me, I will treat them like my own ❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule so they will have all of my attention! If they want it lol. I can also work around specific times you want your dog to eat, medication administered, etc. I have a fenced yard and two dogs that love to play! I can also provide a safe room and playpen for your dog to be in whenever I’m not home if that’s what they please!
“Tish was amazing with Bruno. Definitely felt like he was on vacation as we were:) he loved playing with their dogs in their backyard! Tish was super kind taking him for walks and hikes. She clearly loves dogs and all animals and we felt super confident leaving him with her. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

“We are so grateful to have found Echo to watch our dog while we were out of town! Echo kept us updated on all the fun our dog was having, with pictures and text messages. Echo and her family played with our dog, took her for walks and spent time with her. The communication between us was perfect and she was so flexible with scheduling. And so friendly too! I highly recommend her.”

“I asked Kelley to board my dog and was very pleased with each and every aspect of her care for my dog. I called her with very short notice and she didn't hesitate to accommodate my request. I received updates throughout the stay and was assured of my pets condition. I highly recommend her service and will be sure to use her again in the future.”

“Crista was absolutely amazing !! She went above and beyond for my dog and was so incredibly thoughtful! She sent many pictures while he stayed and he loved playing in her big fenced in yard ! I would definitely recommend her :) Even before we left for our long car ride back she packed his with ice so it stayed cool in the car !! Thank you again!!”

“Elaina took such great care of our Stella! She consistently sent updated pictures and videos of Stella and provided daily updates on her well-being. Stella received lots of loving attention just like at her home. We felt happy that Stella acted and looked very happy in every pic that was sent. Stella came back clean, and calm seemed to be so relaxed. We will be using Elaina again!! Great backyard for an active dog like Stella. She seemed to have made a new friend with "Bug", their dog and their sweet two-year-old daughter.”

“Bethani was wonderful with my Luna. Her communication was wonderful and stayed in touch while we were out of town. Bethani was so sweet and caring towards Luna. Super attentive to her weird quirks. I can not say enough good things about her stay here ❤️”

“Kristen was wonderful! I was a little hesitant to use Rover, but I am so glad that I listened to some fellow dog moms about using it. I came across Kristen’s profile and noticed someone I knew who left a review which made me feel better. I did a meet and greet with Kristen prior to our booking and it was very reassuring. She is kind and very welcoming. We have boarded Peaches in the past at a kennel, but our experience with boarding facilities have not been great. I am so glad we tried something new because when we picked Peaches up it was like night and day in comparison to previous stays at the kennel for boarding. She looked like the happiest girl with Kristen. Also, Kristen sent us some photos while we were away and that made us so happy. I couldn’t be more pleased. Book a service with Kristen because you won’t regret it. :)”

I am so grateful Kelley had availability to watch my dog. She was close to my area and had a nice home and Kelley's own Goldendoodle gave my dog a buddy to play with. I did not have to worry about her at all as I knew she was in a caring, safe place!!! Will absolutely use again in the future!

Mercedes doggysat our Sophia for 2 nights. She sent us sweet pictures and updates during our time away. With each picture I could see that our sweet maltipoo was so happy and felt comfortable where she was. A home away from home :) We felt complete peace knowing our Sophia was in such loving hands. We will definitely be requesting Mercedes to watch Sophia in the future. Definitely recommend!
