1. Andy & Cassie W.

“Cassie and Andy are compassionate and caring. They and their children treated our two Beagles like their own. What a loving family. You can feel it when you walk in the door.”


2. Sandra & Donald T.

“They took such good care of Teddy. She was very flexible on times because we are running late to pick him up which I greatly appreciated. We will definitely be leaving our baby boy with Sandra again in the future. I highly recommend her.”


3. McKayla A.
“I HIGHLY recommend McKayla for a job with your services! Her love of animals is very evident if you were to see her with them. She has two of her own dogs and is so loving with them. This would be a very good fit for her!”


4. Crystal J.
“Crystal recently took care of my 3 cats over a 10 day period and they were just as happy and calm upon return as the day I left! Gave individual attention to each, administered medication, was very responsive and even sent updates with pictures/video. She has also watched my temperamental dogs in the past with care and ease. Her past experience working at a Veterinary clinic helps to relieve my own anxiety when leaving my pets, as I know they are in capable hands. Highly recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a compassionate and competent person to look after their furry family members!”


5. Marianne N.

“I can't thank Marianne enough! I had never left my pup with anyone outside of our family before, but from the pictures she sent me during his stay, I could see he was having a great time with her and her two very friendly and sweet pups! I will absolutely be using her services again!!”

8. Heather C.
About: We have 2 older boys who LOVE dogs. And we have a great space in and out for pets. The garage has space to run around and they can go outside whenever they want with the doggy door leading to our fenced area outside. Smaller dogs would be inside and we have kennel space inside as well. Safe and happy environment. I am home Wednesdays and Friday-Sunday each week with plenty of time to spend with your pups! My kids love dogs as well and will love to help! I have a large garage with a doggy door leading to a fenced area outside for your pups. I have 2 friendly, playful dogs and a friendly outside cat to play with your puppies. I will allow smaller dogs in the house but larger dogs would be in the garage area. Must be crate trained in case I have to run an errand or something.
