“I'm not able to say enough good things about Goharik and her AMAZING family!!! They're the absolute best with my high energy dog, every time he realizes where he's going, he gets sooooo excited. I get updated with pictures often (which I really appreciate) It's a true home away from home :)”

“Gina & spouse were so kind & loving to our 14 yr old poodle mix Murphy!! The proof of their excellent care was his constant tail wagging whenever Gina spoke to him on pick up day.

I would highly recommend her!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Dog Sitters Above and Beyond! I’m beyond grateful for the incredible care gave to my dog, Enzo. They treated him like one of their own took him on a few walks, playing with him and their sweet dog, and making sure he felt completely at home. It’s rare to find people who not only care for your pet but also go out of their way to make the experience special for both dog and owner. Enzo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved.

About: I’ve had a dog off and on since I was 5. I love animals more than people. We potty trained our dog and we trained her well enough that she can roam our house while we are away with no issues. We are serious about animal care. We love our dog with all our heart and we will love yours too! I’ll send lots of pictures while you are away to ensure it feels like you’re still with your pet. I know how it feels to be away from my dog and I want to assure you any way I can that your dog is well taken care of. I am a stay at home mama. I always make sure that my dog is well fed and constantly has water. We like to play outside and take our dog to dog parks. We have a fenced in yard with lots of dog toys. I have a sweet Australian Shepherd to keep your dog entertained. We have a sweet toddler who loves to pet dogs. She loves animals. We want the highest level of satisfaction for our clients. We will focus on making sure your dog is comfortable and safe.
