“Janet is the best sitter ever! She loves my little diva and treats her like her own fur-baby. She is so sweet and kind, so caring and truly enjoys what she does. I will 100% use Janet whenever I'm out of town, because I know my little doggie will be well-cared for, and let's just say it, truly spoilt - which I love! Janet is the best!”

“Wilson's first overnight with Kelly, she was incredibly kind, understanding of his needs and shared many lovely pictures/updates of him enjoying his stay! I'm certain he's excited for his next visit 😀”

“Spencer was perfect! He was very attentive and caring. My dog is a 15 year old senior with medical issues and he was super open to giving pet sitting with him a try and cared for him just as well (if not better) than we would've. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and will definitely hope to get Spencer again next time we need a trusted sitter.”

“We had such a great experience with Bryan! He sent frequent updates and tons of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away for a week. It was clear that our dog Lua was having an amazing time—not only with him, but also playing with the other boarding dogs and even interacting with his cats. We could tell Lua felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time we were away . We will absolutely be using Bryan again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter!”

“Amanda was a godsend for boarding our three dogs while we were away for five days. We were anxious since it was our dogs’ first time being boarded. The pups didn’t exactly make a great first impression—let’s just say they had some settling in missteps in the first 10 minutes that had us cringing. But Amanda was amazing, brushing it off with a smile and total confidence. She knows her stuff, having worked with veterinary’s practice, and made us feel quite comfortable leaving our pups with her. She sent us daily texts and pics, which was a relief. The dogs clearly loved her, and by the time we picked them up, they were chill, happy, and obviously well-fed and exercised. We’re already looking forward to booking Amanda again.”

“Lauren was great. Our pups can be a handful and she was wonderful. They came back happy and well cared for. She was a great communicator and everything went smoothly from booking to drop off to pick up.”

“Tara took good care of my dog. She stayed in touch with me while I was away letting me know everything is going well She also sent me a picture showing me how she is setting in. Tara is very responsive to my texts. I love that. I will definitely use her services again.”


“Jess and Matt are the best. My girl walks into their home comfortable and confident. She no she is always well taken care of there always and has fun. I wish I could show you a picture of what she’s like this morning still sleeping, under the covers and snoring. Thank you”


“Everything was perfect! They treated my dog like a queen and they were very accommodating when I asked for certain dietary and water needs. The dog grooming was exceptional, they made my dog look great. If you love your dog as much as I do then they’re the ones to pick.”

“Quinnlyn had a relaxing and comfortable stay with Amanda and her family. He was given plenty of attention during his visit, and settled in feeling at home with them in a short period of time. We left town feeling confident he was in good hands. Amanda was responsive and easy to communicate with, making planning and coordination seamless throughout the duration Quinn’s stay. We won’t hesitate to schedule with Amanda in the future.”

“Andrea took great care of my lil pup on her first overnights without me. She was communicative, has a fenced in yard, a great dog walking neighborhood and I would love to have Rox stay with her for future trips.”


“Henry always loves staying with Angi. After his first overnight, we had a hard time convincing him to get in the car and come home! They are very attentive to him. They took him on lots of walks and provided lots of playtime. We really appreciated the frequent picture and text updates to put our mind at ease.”
“Beth watched our dog for over a week. She took excellent care of him and was extremely professional to work with. She had clean, comfortable amenities and was very conscientious about his needs. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for a sitter.”

“Shanea is amazing! She took care of our 6 month old picky labradoodle so well. She’s like his second family and had an awesome time. I would trust her to take care of your fur babies like they were her own.”


About: Aside from my own pets over the years, I’ve also provided care and comfort to pets of family and friends. Whether in my home or yours, I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I know how hard it is to find a safe place for our fur babies when we have to travel. Our pittie mutt, Hank, can’t wait to meet your pups! I recently retired after 36 years of teaching and have lots of free time to care for your fur babies. We have a large fenced in deck (and pool for our swimmers). Our 12 acres are not fenced but are cleared for easy walks, on or off lead as desired. Our home sits well off the main road. We’re not opposed to taking pups for rides in our side by side. House trained dogs have freedom in our home. We’re suckers who allow pets on furniture and provide all the love and cuddles needed to make them comfortable. We have plenty of room for crates if your pup is more comfortable in one. In your home, I will follow your house rules. Depending on location, I can come and visit or stay overnight. I can bring mail and packages in for you and take care of your plants. 🪴
