“We left our cocker spaniel, Honey with Aurora and her family for a few nights while we were away on a trip. We had the most at peace mind knowing our Honey girl was very well taken care of with pictures and videos! Will definitely be re booking for future trips! Thanks again ☺️”
“Incredibly communicative and knowledgeable about caring for animals. Leaving our little guy with Stephanie gave my wife and I the peace of mind to enjoy our trip. We even got several photos and video of our little guy having fun and enjoying his stay. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Where do we begin! Roselyn cared for our dog, Parker, for 10 days while we were vacationing. We, along with Parker, were invited to meet Roselyn and her “pack” beforehand, providing the opportunity to ask any questions we had. Roselyn took note of every aspect of Parker, asking us very important questions and ensuring us his daily routines and norms would be mirrored as much as possible. While caring for Parker, she sent us numerous photos and videos of him from throughout each day, recapping every aspect of his day and fun with her and her pack! It was immediately obvious he was having so much fun and was very comfortable and happy! Peace of mind is what every pet owner wants when leaving them in someone else’s care. Without question, Roselyn truly went above and beyond in providing us that, caring for Parker like he was her own. We will ABSOLUTELY be going to Roselyn to care for Parker in the future! Thank you so much, Roselyn - Jingo - MJ - Colo - Ze!!!”

“Cheryl was very accommodating to our senior 16 yr old beagle and her special needs (meds and soiling pads) while we were away for 2 nights.

We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

Excellent experience for both our dog and ourselves. Thank you very much Debra!!! Your awesome!

About: Hi! I have provided pet care for many families which included over night dog sitting, drop ins, dog walking, and feeding/watering. I have a dog of my own who is very energetic, so I’m used to giving lots of attention. My schedule is flexible for walks. I can at minimum do before and after work. If additional walking is required my lunch break is flexible and I would be able to come during lunch breaks (this is true for drop ins as well) I am willing to do overnights/boardings at my own house, however I would like to meet the dog before and allow the dog to meet mine to insure there are no issues! I would prefer to only do boarding on the weekends to ensure that I can be home all day with both dogs! I have a fenced in back yard which allows space for them to run and play. My dog is very dog friendly and well socialized. She loves loves loves having another friend to play with! I currently work full time, so am able to do drop ins before and after work. Depending on location I could potentially do drop in during lunch! My availability is more open on the weekends where I would be able to do more frequent drop ins or even hang out with your pups for an extended amount of time! I have a fenced in yard and a energetic pup of my own, which allows them space to play. I do not crate my dog, but have a spare bedroom that a crate can be placed if that is part of their usual routine. Pups are welcome on the couch and bed, if this is something that is not allowed at your home I will be sure not to allow it here as we don’t want any bad habits developed! I also enjoy taking my dog to the dog park and car rides almost everyday, and if this is something that your dog would enjoy I’d be happy to do this with them as well
“Charity was fantastic! It was our first time leaving our dog with someone new and she helped us feel so comfortable. She sent pictures and updates all throughout and we could tell Sadie was having the time of her life!!”
About: I love working with dogs and I have worked in humane society all though out my high school career. I have also always had a pet since I can remember I am a teacher, so I currently have all summer off. have a lot of time hanging out and taking your dogs out and play with your dogs! I always make sure my animals have access to water and have time to use their energy and also socialize. These are very important for the health and wellbeing of a pet.
“Britni took such good care of our girl! We had issues with our 3 year old feeling comfortable with another boarded, but with Britni she instantly made herself at home. The whole family was very welcoming and my pup loved interacting with her children. Wonderful experience!”
