Sharon took great care of our cat! She stayed in touch with us throughout our vacation and sent pictures each day. We could tell our cat was enjoying her vacation, as well. Thank you for everything, Sharon!

Echo is so wonderful to work with and our dog clearly has a great time with her and her family! I love how Echo sends me photos and updates, and she is so quick to respond to me, too. This is so appreciated as when I travel there are so many little things to think about and prep, but Echo makes boarding my dog so easy and seamless. We have boarded our dog a few times now with Echo and will continue to ask her to watch our dog. Highly recommend!

Emily took such good care of our fur baby. We could see how happy he was in the daily photos she sent us. Great communication before and during our trip. When we had a last minute change in travel plans, Emily was very gracious and accommodating. We will definitely be asking her to care for Bear again.

I'm so thankful to have found Christine and her family to keep our black lab while we were away for a few days. Chrisitine was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. It was obvious that her kids had a big part in taking care of our dog, and he received lots of love and attention. When I picked him up, he was more calm and relaxed than he has ever been after being away from home. I would not hesitate to book with Christine again in the future.

About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.

Marluce and her family were great. You can tell they love animals. Bella was in good hands. She took Bella for walks and threw the ball with her in their fenced backyard. Bella got along fine with their dog Cassie and we got lots of pics. We will definitely have Bella stay with her again, in fact she is staying with her again this week! Thanks Marluce and family!

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!

Gerry and her family were great with Saint. This was the first time we have left him with someone for a long time (3 weeks). We got pictures very frequently. Her house and yard are uniquely set up for dogs, including crating if your dog is crate trained. Because we were out of the country when the COVID19 issue took shape, we had to return early and Gerry promptly processed a change through Rover. We are thankful for the care that they gave Saint.

Super sweet and accommodating! We had a cancellation and needed a last minute babysitter, and Laura helped us out no questions asked! She sent us updates everyday, and even had extra collars when we forgot ours. Our puppy seemed to get along great with her pets/family, so I’d definitely recommend Laura if your pup enjoys running around and socializing. I will definitely be rebooking!!!

Our dog loved staying with Rachel & her family!! So much so that he didn’t want to leave when it was time to go. 😂 Rachel was communicative and lovely and she took amazing care of our pup. We’re always a little anxious when we leave him, but it was clear from the many pictures and texts that he was well cared for, happy, and safe. We will absolutely be repeat clients.

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.
