“We have two dogs, one who has a lot of energy and anxiety. Rainy and Perry watched both for over a week and sent us daily updates with pictures of activities they all did including daily walks, fetch, treat time, etc. We’ve never seen our dogs handle separation from us this well and can only wonder if our dogs had a better time on vacation then we did! We will definitely have them stay here anytime we go away and highly recommend them for fellow pet owners.”
“Debbie and Phil have watched Zola numerous times and always treat her like their own! I never have to worry about her when she is with them. Their house and yard is an absolute retreat for Zola. Five stars all the way and highly recommend them!”
About: I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur baby with someone new. That’s why I go the extra mile to build trust and create a calm, caring experience for both you and your dog. Whether it’s a quick walk, a day visit, or overnight boarding, you can count on me to give them the attention and love they deserve. Available on weekends for now, will soon be opening up a doggy daycare and it’ll be full time. Reach out to me for more information In your home, I will follow all the instructions necessary to have a successful day with your pup. I try to also do some training while taking care of the pups to keep them mentally stimulated as well!

“This was our first trip away from our little princess Luna. After several searches and attempts to find the right sitter, we came upon Megan. She responded almost immediately after we sent the request. From the first introduction, through Luna’s stay with Megan and her family, we felt we found the perfect person to watch Luna while we were away. Megan sent daily updates and photos which put our minds at ease. If you are looking for someone to watch your dog, Megan is the person you should book!”
“Amber took great care of my baby. She sent plenty of updates and even put his coat on when it was cold. Her cute little puppers panda taught Krypto how to be a dog. She understood my anxiety and my nervousness with leaving my baby with a stranger. I will definitely be using Amber in the future.”
“Karter took care of our pup Casey overnight. He and his family are such warm, pet friendly people. I’d recommend Karter for dog sitting. One of my other dogs is currently staying with him, while we’re away for the week. We will use him from now on, when we need someone to watch our fur babies! 🐾🐶🐾”
About: I've taken care of pets since I was young. I've always had a dog, cat or bird in my home. My current dog is a rescue. I rescued her 13 years ago and she is now 14 years old. I love all animals, but you can be assured your pet will be treated like a member of my home. They will be loved, respected and treated like royalty. I'm retired, so I have plenty of time to spend with your precious pet. I'm with my dog all day. I even take her with me when I run errands. My yard is fenced in, but I will still take your pet out on walks frequently. I have a small dog, who is the love of my life, to keep your pet company. I recently rescued 2 small dogs. A toy poodle, 2, and a Yorkie-poo, 10 months. They are a mother/daughter duo.

“I was able to thoroughly relax and enjoy my own vacation knowing that Maggie was loved, well care for, and had other dogs to play with. I will definitely keep this service and Kristen M. in my contacts for all my future needs.”
“Gabriella was great! She stayed in communication with us throughout the week and opened her home up to my dogs Waffles and Roxy. Waffles had such a good time she didn’t want to leave! We picked up both dogs happy and exhausted (in a good way) from their vacation with Gabriella (and Crue). I would highly recommend Gabriella to anyone looking for a place to board their dogs and will definitely reach out again when Roxy and Waffles need a place to stay for a few days!”
