“Frank and Clarissa were great! They’re responsive and attentive and provided excellent updates. We were glad to have them watch our dog without any concern or incident while away.”
“Kyle took such good care of my baby Reba! Kyle had high communication with me regarding an ear infection that my pup was struggling with and even took her to the vet when she needed to be seen. My pup was at Kyle’s for over a week and had the happiest demeanor when I picked her up. It was clear to me that she was treated well and had a good time. I’ll definitely use Kyle again for Reba’s care.”
“Talishia did an amazing job with my puppy! My Nova was having an absolute blast in the fenced in yard with Talishia's dog when I went to pick her up, her dog was very sweet about my puppy being a high energy (and a bit chaotic) playmate. Absolutely great experience, I feel like Nova was well cared for and was given plenty of attention :)”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, including my own. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, giving oral medications if needed, and caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I understand that every pet is unique, so I adapt to their individual needs and routines to help them feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, or simply keeping pets company, I can easily adapt to their normal routine and give them the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and daily routines. I also make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and close supervision to keep them safe and happy while you’re away.
“Molly had a great time with Kyle, Jacquie and their girls! They were kind, responsive and provided frequent updates and photos. Would definitely recommend to anyone needing a dog sitter :)”

“This was our first time boarding our puppy with Melinda over night. Through out the stay,we felt very comfortable with Melinda. It was very thoughtful and appreciated with her updates and providing fun filled activities for our puppy, Dini. Dini seemed like she had a blast. Would book again with Melinda!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Tracy. I was genuinely so nervous boarding my dogs for the first time, and from the very beginning she made me feel completely at ease. She was warm, patient, reassuring, and so communicative the entire time. What really stood out to me is how naturally comfortable my dogs were with her. You can tell she truly understands animals and cares about them like they’re her own. She sent updates and photos, answered my anxious first-time-boarder questions with so much kindness, and made the whole experience feel safe and personal. Finding someone you can actually trust with your dogs is huge, and Tracy is absolutely that person. I’m so grateful we found her and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Catherine was excellent with our dog Misiu! She was incredibly attentive, and sent lots of photos and videos throughout our vacation. She allowed him to snuggle with her in bed, which he’s used to. That was very much appreciated. We will definitely rebook with Catherine. Misiu was a happy boy the entire time, we weren’t missed 😆”
“I was extremely impressed with Laurie! Sophie felt right at home the second she got in the door. The pictures she sent me and updates were great. This was the very first time we left our dog with someone in 7 years. We booked Laurie in January too! Im looking forward to our winter vacation without the worry.”
“Cassie did such an amazing job with my puppy. I’m definitely booking her again! She sent me updates regularly and her dogs are awesome. My dog is only 4 months old and still being potty trained and she handled his accidents with no complaints and took him outside multiple times a day. I also booked her super last minute so i’m super happy she was able to take us. Thanks Cassie!”

Alicia has had Miles a few times now. She is very good with Miles and has been more than accommodating with Miles while in the hospital. Miles staying with Alicia and her family made my hospitalization less stressful knowing Miles was safe and in great hands. Alicia provides updates and pictures which is a great comfort to me. Thank you for your services, and your professionalism. I truly appreciate it, and you.
