“Rodney is a true professional. Every drop-in visit is consistent and reliable. He treats my two puppies with care and patience, and I can fully trust him in my home. What sets Rodney apart is his communication—he always sends detailed updates with photos and candid feedback that help me reinforce my puppies training. I am very thankful to find someone I can trust for my puppies.”
“Barbara came in first day and was amazing! Services I needed were 2x weekly dinner feeding and potty time so that I can feel less guilty about not always getting home right after work. The meet and greet exceeded my expectations when Barbara started asking me relevant care questions about things I hadn't thought to yet communicate. As a pet mama, I can't tell you how important that is to me, especially with my memory. First day, she sent me a comprehensive update of my dogs feeding, care and potty time along with as many pics as the app would allow. I can't express how good it feels to have the help from someone who takes my babies care/concerns to heart as much as I do. Fully recommend Barbara and will continue to keep her part of our schedules as long as she will have us!”
“Arlette was amazing, she kept us at ease during our 5 days away from home. Her punctuality and communication are top notch, we will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Hannah did a fantastic job and really went above and beyond. We are over The moon that she took care of or pup with as much compassion in love as her own animals.”
“Diana was very communicative and took lots of pictures of my babies. It looks like they absolutely loved her. She went above and beyond following directions that I had left and I will be booking again!”

“Dawn was wonderful and very accommodating for the fur babies. Always responded in a timely manner and would keep us updated to her status as well. We were at ease during our travels and upon return our dogs were in great condition and relaxed, almost as if we never left. Thanks Dawn!”
About: I've been working with animals for almost 10 years. I was a veterinary technician in private practice and currently work at an animal shelter. I have a range of experience from healthy, medical needs, and seniors. I'm comfortable administering medications and providing medical care. I work well with scared and nervous pets and make sure their time is stress free as possible. I also have personal and professional experience with pocket pets and aquarium pets. I work full-time but I make sure to plan accordingly for your pets needs. I have an extra bedroom that they can stay in, if not comfortable having them around other pets. I also have a kennel if they need down time or like to have a safe space to decompress in. I have 3 days off during the week and those days will be filled with multiple walks, play sessions, and anything else that will make their stay comfortable. I have a fenced yard and my 3 dogs love playing and taking walks throughout the neighborhood. I have a separate room and/or a kennel for any pet that's not comfortable or needs additional time to decompress.

Shelby C.
“Shelby has watched our 4 dogs several times while we were out of town, as well as when we traveled out of country. She was very communicative with us the entire time on the status and behavior of our animals. She was also very good about meeting the differing needs of our four dogs. One is very hyperactive and she took him for runs to help get his energy out, and one is very anxious/special needs but she was incredibly patient and adapted to ensure the best care was still being provided. She is always thorough to ensure any dietary needs or medication is being met and administered appropriately. Her background in multiple fields of animal welfare comes through, and you can tell she has a love for all animals. Would definitely recommend her!”
