Augusta is so kind and I appreciate her taking great care of my baby boy. She communicates well and sends picture updates which are much appreciated. My Russy feels comfortable at her home and I’m grateful for Augusta’s hospitality. 😊

Lucia was able to accommodate my last minute boarding request for my puppy. She's communicative, flexible, and provided a very welcoming home. I received multiple photos a day and even came back to a groomed dog. I would recommend Lucia!

Sharon was the perfect sitter for our mini labradoodle Sydney. She took excellent care of Sydney and kept us updated with texts, pics and videos throughout our trip. We felt that Sydney was safe and loved while we were away and could relax and enjoy our trip. We will definitely be contacting Sharon to see if she is available next time we need a sitter!

My pups had so much fun! The pictures and videos put a smile on my face and put me at ease to know my dogs were having a great time at a new place. Milo found a new best friend ?. I'm sure my pups can't wait to visit again and get more cuddles! Thank you!

Beedo had a fabulous time with Coralee. From the moment we arrived and the way she greeted us I knew this was going to go well. Coralee was attentive to Beedo's special needs and quirks and built an instant relationship with him. It was a great experience and I loved the picks she sent me of him relaxing with his blankie with her dog. I highly recommend Coralee and her dog Peducci. They're a great care team!

We are so grateful for Erin!!! Our pup wound up with pneumonia after a kennel boarding and we had a very expensive trip planned for a couple days later. We couldn’t take her back to a multi-dog boarding situation in case she was contagious and she needed space to rest and recover. Erin was so fast with her response and very accommodating for her needs! We got pictures/updates daily and could tell she loved the park by her house. THANK YOU AGAIN!!

Carol took great care of our puppy, Max, for about a week while we were on vacation. She was wonderful! Max seemed so happy in all the videos and pictures Carol shared. I think Max actually misses being there and having more friends to play with! Carol is easy to communicate with and was very flexible and accommodating.

About: I’m a devoted dog lover offering safe, caring, and dependable boarding. Your dog won’t just be watched—they’ll be loved, cuddled, and cared for like one of my own. I have experience with caring for bullies, mix breeds , and purebreds of all sizes and ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I recently completed the Certificate of Training for Pet First Aid & CPR through Pet Tech I have doggie clients that I walk however your dog will never be left alone for extended periods. If your dog requires more personalized attention I will be able to modify schedule to ensure your dog feels loved and safe. I genuinely love dogs and take pride in providing a safe, caring, and reliable place for them to stay. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or quiet time, your dog will be cared for like one of my own. We have a large fenced in yard and the house is dog proof to ensure no safety concerns. Your pup will have a choice on where to sleep pending on preference….crate, dog bed or on a human bed. Experienced with administering medication. Daily photos and updates included! The boarding and/or daycare home will not have any other dogs. If your pup likes a canine friend then I can introduce Caesar, our English Bulldog , who lives a few houses down the street in our primary home.

About: Hi, I'm Angela! I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by dogs, and I truly believe a home isn’t complete without the sound of four paws on the floor. I recently said goodbye to my beloved Pit Bull, Bia. She was my world, and I want to treat your pup with the same devotion, patience, and affection that I gave to her. My fiancée, Lauren, and I have her two dogs 2 weeks out of the month and they are great with other dogs and love to make friends! I work from home during the day and am a dance teacher in the evening. Between the two of us we have flexibility most of the day for house visits, walks, boarding, and daycare! I work from home during the day and my fiancée is home in the evening so we have a flexible schedule to give your furkid lots of love and attention! I have a large backyard on a quiet residential street and 2 sweet dogs part time who love to make friends! I have the ability to crate dogs of all size in my home and will not accept dogs from multiple families at one time so your baby will be spoiled!

About: Animals have been part of my life since day one. I grew up with dogs and cats of all personalities! I currently share my home with Kisses, my calico, and Teddy, my German Shorthaired Pointer — one of the highest-energy breeds out there — so if your dog goes a mile a minute, I'm more than ready for it!! Over the years I've dog sat for all sizes and breeds — from tiny lap dogs to large, boisterous pups — and I treat every single one like they're my own. Your pet will be loved, played with, and completely spoiled. My home has a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, zoom, and explore that's perfect for dogs who need to burn off some energy. I'm also comfortable administering medication, so pets with special health needs are absolutely welcome. Your baby will get the same attentive care at my place that they get at home. Whether your pet needs a calm, cozy stay or a high-energy playmate, I've got them covered. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I work remotely with a very flexible schedule, which means pet care is never an afterthought. It's woven into my whole day. I'm home the majority of the week, and on the rare occasion I do step out, I'm never gone for more than 3 hours. Your pet will always have someone present, attentive, and ready to play, cuddle, or just keep them company. No long stretches alone, ever. My home is set up thoughtfully for both dogs and cats. The layout is split-level, with cats having full run of the upstairs and dogs enjoying the main floor plus access to the fully fenced backyard — plenty of space to play, explore, and burn energy safely. The two never have to share space unless everyone is comfortable. I do have a resident calico and a German Shorthaired Pointer, both of whom are friendly and social, so I do ask that visiting pets are comfortable around other animals of their kind. I always offer a free meet-and-greet before booking so we can make sure everyone — pets and people — feels good about the stay before any commitment is made. My home is puppy-proofed and high-energy-dog-ready, and I have 24/7 SimpliSafe security monitoring for added peace of mind. You can expect regular photos and updates throughout every stay because you shouldn't have to wonder how your pet is doing. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions exactly. Your routines, your rules — meal times, crate preferences, favorite toys, walking routes — I stick to all of it. I respect your home as if it were my own, always clean up after your dog outside, and scoop litter boxes daily. Your pet's comfort and your peace of mind are the whole point.
