Kerry and her family treat our dog like absolute royalty!! He’s welcomed and cared for as if he were their own. We always pick him up happy and clearly spoiled with love. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter.

This was my first time using this type of service, it was great to not have to board my girl especially since she requires insulin shots twice a day. Bobbi and her husband came twice a day during Christmas and were great with her.

Ashley was amazing. My original plans fell through for my dog and she was so nice and helpful. This was my first time leaving my dog and she kept me posted with pictures and texts everyday while he was there. If you need boarding I recommend Ashley. I will be booking with her again 10/10.

Cleo always enjoys her stays with Denise's family. They always follow her care instructions and take great care of her, and share plenty of photos so I can check in. Would definitely recommend this sitter and will book with them again in the future.

Tina was fantastic! She sent me text messages, pictures, and videos of my Boston Terrier, Lee Lee. Tina took Lee Lee to the local dog park for exercise and cuddled with her in the evenings. I don't think my dog missed me at all. I will definitely use Tina in the future.

She was absolutely wonderful! She was very kind, communicative, and clearly cared a lot about my puppy. She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent lots of pictures, which really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. It made such a difference knowing my puppy was in good hands. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. 🐾

I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention my dog received from Christianna & Mary. From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in great hands. They were incredibly responsible and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the day. My dog was calm, happy, and excited when I returned, which is a huge relief. I highly recommend Christianna & Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter for their furry friend!

I highly recommend Melanie and Randy to care for your pets! Our dog,Pax, can only have a certain type of dog toy, since he is a heavy chewer, and Melanie made sure that he would only have non-destructable toys to play with. She also gave updates with pictures to let me know how Pax was settling in. I felt very comfortable with Melanie and Randy caring for Pax and will definitely rebook with them on the future.

I can’t say enough good things about Nikki! She treated my big baby just like her own and put up with me being overly cautious before Finn’s stay with her. She is excellent at communicating and sent lots of sweet messages and pictures while we were gone. I almost can’t console Finn because he misses her and her pups! He probably can’t wait for us to go away again so he can go visit Nikki.

Christine is an excellent pet sitter. She is warm and friendly with both the owner and the pet. She asks detailed questions because she wants to take care of your dog in the best way. She sent daily pictures and videos so I knew my Wally was happy ? I would strongly recommend Christine!

About: As a child I've grown up with multiple animals as animals as pets, including a few dogs and a few cats. Professionally, I've had four total years taking care of different animals, which includes supervising dogs as well as helping various animals such as cats, guinea pigs, and other animals get adopted. I have had general experience feeding, walking, bathing, nail trimming, and over all playing with and supervising dogs. I also have had experience taking care of elderly and disabled animals, which includes but is not limited to a 19 year old cat with arthritis and kidney disease. I have experience giving animals oral medications at the correct times and have been consistently. As of right now, I am offering house sitting, drop-ins and dog walking. As of right now, all seven days of the week are generally free for me and I am home most of the time. However, there may be some days where I'm not available, such as certain holidays or family events. If something happens where I can't take care of your animal(s) (such as an emergency), I'll try to let you know ahead of time. I'll always keep your animals supervised regardless of whatever service I'm doing at the time. If your animal takes medications, I'll administer them at the correct times.

About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life. I currently have a Blue Great Dane named Diesel. He is great with other dogs, and we will have to do a meet and great to make sure you’re pup will get along with him also. I’m usually available unless the wife has me doing something. I spend every min I can with my dog and will show your dog the same treatment. My yard is unfenced for now, but it is 2 acres that’s at the end of a quiet neighborhood. We have plenty of room to play and go on walks.

About: I have over 30 years of caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes-including rescue dogs. It is a dogs world-I just pay the bills!! Hi there! I have taken care of and loved dogs all of my life! I currently have two dogs at home- Ryder who is a 7 year old yellow lab who loves to play fetch and cuddle and CiCi, a six year old shepherd mix who loves to explore the backyard and play. Both of my dogs are very dog friendly and love to play. I work from home most days and am available on weekends. I have half an acre of fenced in back yard that allows your fur baby to have endless zoomies and potty breaks! I also take my dogs on frequent walks to get their exercise on as well. Dogs are welcomed on the couch. Interactions and meals between dogs will always be supervised. Please let me know how I can best fit your dogs needs! I have a spacious house that allows allows dogs to relax and have their space. My backyard is half an acre and fenced completely. I enjoy walking my dogs for both physical and mental exercise. I always ensure the safety of my dogs and will care equally for anyone who trusts me with their pups.

My Husky Tonks was in good hands with Kerri! She has an adorable beagle who bonded with Tonks right away. Tonks got a ton of attention and went on frequent walks. Kerri took lots of pics and provided frequent updates. I would highly recommend Kerri to care for any pet as she is highly responsible and provides loving care.
