“Jhensen was an awesome dog sitter for my German shepherd emmy! He sent me tons of pictures and was totally accommodating.

Emmy liked him right away. Thanks Jhensen. ”


10. Kevin C.

“Kevin was a great sitter to watch both my dogs. He was able to accommodate last minute day care booking on Christmas day and when an emergency popped up during christmas, he was very nice to help out and have both my dogs stay overnight. He sent in pictures and videos of them on hikes and having a fenced yard was a plus! they were great with the other dogs he has in the house. Came to pick up my dogs and they looked so happy- usually will bark and whine when they see their mommy but this time they just jumped in exciment. It made me happy that both my dogs were at peace and calm at someones house they did not know; espically my senior dog who has major seperation anixety from being attached to me, she did so well and looked very calm which made me happy. After picking the dogs up from his house, they were passed out on the ride home. I would recommend Kevin when caring for your dogs. He responds well and is very nice and will treat the dogs like they are his own.”

About: I will take care of your dog(s) as my own! I have been pet sitting since my college years and now I am happy to offer a great family environment for your pets at my home. I have a friendly Golden Retriever and a large fenced yard for the dogs to play and explore. I am full time stay at home mom and I am always watching the dogs. They are cared for in a family setting, roaming free around the house, the ones who are boarded spend dinner time and evening time cuddling and watching movies with us. They are included in everything we do around the house, brushed and cleaned daily, and spend a lot of time playing outdoors. I love all breeds, but currently taking care of medium to large dogs, family friendly breeds only. - Drop off and pick up hours are 8am-7pm. - No Saturday drop offs and pickups in respect for our family time. - Boarding is 2 nights minimum; 3 nights on holiday weekends. - Daycare must be on recurring weekdays, no daycare on weekends. - Discounted rates for weekly stays. - Calendar is always updated up to 6 months ahead. Trust and safety of your dog(s) are my top priorities as I know what it takes boarding my own dog while away. - I have a fully fenced yard and a few designated dog areas in my home to play and sleep. - My lawn is treated for ticks seasonally with pet safe materials. - I only board family friendly breeds for the safety of everyone. - Rough play is not allowed in my home. - Dogs do not leave property while boarded; they get to play in the yard all day. - They don’t get to interact with any dogs that are not personally known by me. - No table food is offered unless specifically agreed with owner. - Each dog sleeps on their own bed in a separate gated area at night, unless they are from the same family. - The orthopedic dog beds are washed after each boarding. - The yard is kept clean of doggy poop at all times.

14. Lisa G.
“We love Lisa! Our Goldendoodle Massimo lights up whenever she comes to pick him up and is always sad when he has to say goodbye. It's so comforting to know he's in such great hands, especially with her kids who LOVE dogs! I know he has so much fun on their walks and sleepovers and she takes the best care of him—always checking in and sending photos. We can't say enough good things about her and highly recommend her services for all of your fur babies too!”


15. Yushin "Tina" P.

“Tina & Jon were such wonderful hosts. Our puppy couldn't stop telling us how much fun she had running around in their big back fenced yard with their 2 fur babies. Tina & Jon took such great care of her. We highly recommend their services.”

“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my beloved pup! Rossana was incredibly attentive, loving, and reliable. My dog, Oskar, was so happy and well-cared for.

20. Rosediane H.
“Rosediane is great with dogs. I have a Labrador / Rottweiler mix, a shelter dog from the south who has quite a bit of energy and can be a lot to handle at times. Whenever my family happened to need some help walking the dog, Rosediane would be there to help and she was always able to manage the dog whether in a park or on the beach and keep the situation in her control. ”
