“Sarah & Aaron are great with dogs! They understand how dogs work and what they need and are attentive to those needs at all times. I've left my dog with them several times now and he always comes back in perfect shape and in a good mood. He now recognizes their house and launches out of the car when we arrive.”



“Bob took such wonderful care of our pup over our wedding weekend! Our dog had such a good time and Bob even gave us updates (per our request ☺️). Thank you so much, Bob!!”


“Deanne was a lifesaver - not only did she agree to take our cat Tulip on such short notice, but she helped me with my separation anxiety with such kindness and empathy. Deanne went out of her way to send pictures and videos of Tulip having a great time, which meant the world to me. Tulip was clearly happy, well taken care of, and now I have to buy her a cat tree since the one Deanne provided brought her so much joy. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart - Brianna”


“Couldn’t have had a better experience boarding our girl. Richmond was communicative, thoughtful, accommodating of our last-minute overnight request, and took excellent care of Sunny. His fenced yard was a paradise, and the hike to the swimming hole was a wonderful treat. Sunny was very happy, relaxed, and exhausted when we picked her up. Thanks, Richmond.”


“Wonderful sitter! Highly recommend. Great with communication and sending photos with updates. I left feeling confident in her taking very good care of my fur baby. He ran to her before we left and to me that meant he had a great time and was very well taken care of!”


“Nicole was absolutely amazing!!! She was so responsive, sent lots of pics and I’ve never seen my dog so happy in someone else’s home! 10/10 experience!!! Thank you Nicole for taking such perfect care of Misha!!!”


“Brigid was perfect for my older dog Scout. She is very loving and attentive. Scout seemed very content with Brigid, who kept me updated with photos and videos. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Scout.”


“Cipriana was great! This was Buddy's first time boarding after adopting him five weeks ago and it couldn't have gone better. The Meet and Greet beforehand was a great experience and the pictures and texts that Cipriana sent during Buddy's stay were very much appreciated. Buddy will be staying again in the near future. Thanks, Cipriana”


“Maegan and her family were great sitters to my pug Sofia! I was sent plenty of pictures and I know she was cared for and loved dearly during my long 12 night trip away. Thank you for caring for her!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, presence, and attention I bring to every pet I look after. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility and availability to give pets consistent companionship and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important routines, comfort, and trust are—especially when someone else is caring for a beloved pet. I’m naturally nurturing, detail-oriented, and communicative, which means you’ll always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet like part of the family, because to me, they truly are. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 wonderful animal adoring children. Because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. During their stay, your pet will experience all the best parts of our family just as if they were our own. When caring for your pets in a clients home, I do my best to adhere to all routines and schedules so the pets can feel as comfortable as possible. I will respect your home and keep everything clean, organized, and calm. I’m more than happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. My goal is to provide a loving and safe environment for you and your pet so you can rest assured knowing that they are being taken care of to your standards.

“I am so thankful I found somebody who can take care of my little one when I’m away!!! He had a great time and he was well taken care of! I know he is in good hands!”


“Amanda was great with our dogs. She listened carefully to each of their needs and made sure to accommodate particular requests. Amanda was prompt in getting back to us anytime we reached out and sent us occasional photos of the dogs playing or resting. She has a lovely home and large fenced-in backyard where the dogs could run free and get plenty of exercise. We felt at ease knowing our precious pups were kept safe and warm while we were away!”


“Jayla was sooo sweet with my boy! He has separation anxiety and I can tell Jayla was very attentive and gave the best care for him. Can't thank Jayla enough:)”


“Vera was the perfect dog sitter for our Pixel. She sent great updates and pictures throughout our trip to make us feel comfortable and show us that Pixel was having a great time. She is very thorough and asks all the right questions (even the ones that we forgot). Highly recommend Vera for all your doggy needs!”


“Lori was a life saver! We had to book on very short notice and Lori took our 2 dogs into her home for the weekend. They were incredibly cared for in a safe home. Lori sent us updates on their well-being and they came home happy.”


“Emily one again took awesome care of my dog! He had another great time with her, and her updates gave me total peace of mind that my dog was very well cared for. She’s also very responsive and great to communicate with. Thanks Emily!!”

Nicole R.
“Nicole has a wonderful mannerism with all creatures great and small. My dogs, cats, and horses just love her. When our 18 year old cattle dog was given his final visit with our vet, Nicole brought clay to the house and made paw imprints for us. I was touched by this act of kindness and in all my years with many pets, I had never heard of this. She is one of the good ones! I smile when I see her and the keepsakes I have of my beloved pet will always be cherished by our family.”
