“Janine was wonderful to Sara who is 15 and blind. Janine is a very special person with a very kind heart. Janine gave me peace of mind while on vacation. There are no words I can say how blessed I feel to find Janine who took Sara in her home and made Sara feel loved and cared for.”
“Vicki is beyond amazing as a dog sitter. My lab has so much energy and the day he came home after a week with Vicki and her other dogs, he did nothing but sleep! While at the sitters he took great advantage of the dog friendly swimming pool and large yard. Vicki sent me pictures everyday and let me know what adventures my dog was experiencing. I highly recommend Vicki - she loves dogs!!! We will be a repeat customer ?”
“Mark and Vicky are wonderful! We were nervous about leaving our dog, Oliver, for the first time. They made us feel comfortable by meeting with us before his stay and getting to know all of Oliver's little quirks. They sent us updates with pictures every day of our trip and we could definitely see how much fun Oliver had while we were away. They gave him plenty of exercise, love, and attention. It was such a great experience and we are so thankful to Mark and Vicky for their great care. Oliver did not want to leave!”
“This was Penny's third stay with Nathan & Jennna, and our experience again was great, they are thoughtful and attentive, and their communication is outstanding. I know Penny is in good hands and a loving home when she's with them, and recommend them highly, thank you”
“Gail was fantastic & brave! We just adopted Bernie from the shelter a few days before a planned vacation...bad timing on our part! Gail was wonderful with him and sent us updates, as I was really nervous about leaving him so soon. She was reassuring and very understanding. I definitely would use Gail for boarding...if she will have him again!”

“Mattey, my dog, loves Stephanie! His new best friends are Ryder & Max, her dogs. Stephanie made our trip wonderful because she let me know how Mattey was doing and sent lots of pictures!”
“We went over seas for 14 days. Aimee kept great contact with us and sent us videos and pictures. We felt very comfortable and confident leaving our fur babies with her and her husband. I highly recommend her as a trust with and caring sitter. We will use her again for several trips we have coming up in 2025. Our gratitude is immense. Thank you! 😊”
“Jenny was so wonderful with our fur babies. We used Jenny for a week long vacation. She gave us updates and pictures. Her home is beautiful and large enough to accommodate our larger dogs that love to play and romp and then lounge on the couch. Strongly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“While Olivia was very glad to be home, I know that she was well taken care of while I was gone. Doug followed the feeding instructions that I gave him and I hear that she had plenty of walking. I hope he is available for future occasions when I am gone. I have already tipped him on pick-up.”
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, so you could say it's in my blood. Over the years, I've learned so much about their different personalities and needs. One of the most special dogs in my life was my own, who lived to the incredible age of 18. He was a constant companion and taught me so much about loyalty and love. That experience really shaped my approach to dog care, making me extra attentive and dedicated to their well-being. I also have experience with cats and rabbits as well. I usually work my other job in the mornings, but I can be flexible to fit your schedule. Let me know what times work best for you, and I'll do my best to accommodate! Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I always make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I follow their regular feeding and exercise routines, and I'm always attentive to their individual needs and quirks. Lots of playtime, cuddles, and positive reinforcement are definitely part of the deal!
“Jenna and her family were AMAZING caring for Luna! I was nervous leaving her with a sitter and going out of the country but I knew she was in good hands with this family. I got daily picture and video updates and Luna was exhausted from playing by the time she got home! 10/10 would recommend :)”
“I felt Savanna took good care of Felipe. He loves everyone and he is a good dog and that showed when he was with Savanna and her family. Yes I would have him stay with her again. He was taken in his morning walks and they shared videos. Nice home and family. Thank you guys”
About: Having a pet of my own with diabetes set me on a path to learn more and start a career toward helping animals that may need more care than others. I am a helper by trade and love spending time with pets so I hope I can apply my years of dedication and adoration for animals by helping take care of yours when you need assistance. I work as a general handyman and take classes toward veterinary technician and looking to help others with my spare time. Walking dogs is a passion of mine and, depending on the owner's request, can keep it local or take them to a desired park or hiking path. I walk daily on my own so a few extra paws would be good for me and the pooch! My cats are indoor/outdoor so they roam but stay close to the property. I do not leave them out alone. Inside we play a bit until they get bored, listen to music, and of course they nap...mostly they nap... When I have had dogs in the past, they get outside time to enjoy the sunshine and breeze and we're never left out in bad weather conditions. They've always had a safe and comfortable place inside the home.
“I was really happy with the care Enzo received from Alexandra. I got up many updates and pictures throughout his stay which made me feel at peace. She was also very helpful in setting a drop off and pick up time when I needed one last minute. Enzo came back happy and fulfilled after playing with her dogs.”
