“Amanda has been wonderful with Hatcher! He’s stayed several times now and he comes home tuckered out. We love her open communication and frequent photo & video updates while he’s with her. She takes great care of our boy and we appreciate all she does so we can enjoy our time away from him without having to worry if he’s ok. Thank you so much Amanda!”
“Cadey & Jacob were incredible! They were the kindest people and took such great care of our dogs! They took them on all kinds of long walks and loved on them. Plus they sent plenty of pictures throughout their stay, which was fun to see and reassured me our dogs were in excellent care! Couldn’t recommend them more! Thanks for taking such great care of our boys!”
“Lindsey has been great. I came in from out of town & was in a bind, but she helped out with my most prized possession. After meeting, I felt comfortable leaving my girl in her capable hands. If you need help with your pup & live in the Eagle River area, I would recommend reaching out to Lindsey.”

“Skywalker has never stayed with anyone before. I had concerns about his adapting to a new situation. Andrea and Arlo were awesome. Skywalker had a great time with both. He was well fed. Had plenty of exercise. He meshed well with both their dog and the owner. Thank you.”
“Olga and her kids took such great care of Zeke. I got photo updates every day and she even bought him toys. Olga was super accommodating with drop off and pick up. We even had a meet and greet prior to the first day so Zeke would have at least met her before spending time with her. I highly recommend Olga as a dog sitter.”

About: I had dogs growing up and been around a lot of families dogs. I have experience dog sitting for family and friends while they’re where away It will work perfectly fine currently I’m on leave so the dogs will have my full attention and when I go back to work I’m close by my home still and will be home during lunch to look after the dogs At my home the dogs will have plenty of time to relax or play, and will be well taken care of for the time that they are here
“Ralph loves the dogs that stay in his home as if they were his own and his house is the perfect dog house- warm, comfy, and with the most amazing fenced yard. 10/10 would use again.”
“Brianna was great. This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone. He looked very relaxed and comfortable. Her communication was great. I enjoyed the pictures.”
“He did a phenomenal job. My husky loves to try to run away but was unable to, and the GPS tracker he has just in case made me feel more safe with the dogs in his hands. He took them on walks, played with them, and gave them the company they needed to not be stressed out. He kept me updated and sent pictures of them during the time away. Will definitely be using him again if I need to travel.”
