I cannot say enough good things! my puppies had a safe and private place where they were secure and comfortable. I got photos and updates letting me know how they were doing. When we had a bit of a car problem and our pick up time changed unexpectedly - Sharon was gracious and understanding Was so glad the dogs safe and not sitting on the side of the road while we figured out tge issue. Highly recommend!

Bethani was wonderful with my two dogs during their 3-night stay! It was the first time that they stayed with someone else other than friends or family, so I was concerned about how they might do. They seemed to immediately feel right at home with Bethani. They had time outside to run and play during the day, while also having a comfortable spot just for them inside. Bethani sent me pictures of them every day, and they always looked happy and active in each picture. I will be using Bethani again!

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!

Crystal was so caring and loving to our little Marley! She and her family gave him lots of snuggles and attention during his visit. She was also flexible with drop off and pick up which is really helpful because I fly for work which can lead to delays. Already looking forward to our next visit!

Had to leave last minute for a funeral. She took Apollo in and did far beyond any care I expected him to receive. Will use Brittany for future occasions!

The whole family took very good care of Abby. I could tell by the daily updates that she was being treated just like she was part of the family. Abby perked up when I showed her a picture and said one of the children names, looking around for her new found friend only settling back down when I started to pet Abby. Can’t thank them enough for the attention given. Awesome service!

I was worried the dogs wouldn't want to come home from all the pictures of them playing with the family dog the kids and themselves. So happy we found a place where I know they feel at home!!

Absolutely amazing and stunning experience. Abigail was incredible! I got so many photos and videos. She took my dog to the dog park many times and even took him in to get a few toys when he chewed up the ones I sent with him. 100% my dog did NOT want to leave her, he had such a great time! Abigail is new to this platform, but has great experience. Definitely give her your business!

Brittany was so sweet and communicative. My dog wasn’t feeling well during his stay. She told me what was going on right away and offered to go get anything that might make him feel better. Thankfully the situation resolved and he was able to enjoy the rest of his stay.

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!

I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!

Shelly is beyond amazing! This was our first time to Leave our furry baby with anyone besides family and we were more than impressed. Not only is Shellys home clean and dog friendly but her and her two dogs are lovely as can be. I think our dog Finkle misses them already! We can’t recommend Shelly enough!

Cora and her family were amazing! They watched our 7 months old golden retriever for five days and took great care of her. The dogs all got along well and Belle loved her kids! Our flight also got moved back a day and Cora was super flexible and kept Belle an extra day for us. We got multiple pictures every day, Belle got to go out on lots of walks and got lots of snuggles on the couch. This was my first time leaving Belle and also my first time using a sitting service, and it couldn’t have been a better experience!

Emma did a wonderful job while we were on vacation watching our son graduate from basic training. She always reached out to me if she had any questions or concerns. Got a lot of pictures and updates which made this dog mom at ease. Emma will also be coming to the house for drop ins while I’m at work. I would 100% recommend her for any of her services.
