“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter. The kids and I were apprehensive, but after meeting Mitzi, seeing her home, the kids and the other doggies,,,we felt at ease. Mitzi kept communicating with us about our beloved Ro’ & she sent us pics and vids of Ro’s adventures at her home. So glad that Ro had a great experience at Mitzi’s home😊.”
“Krisztina treats them like her own. Her home is warm, inviting and clean!! I felt guilty having them shed all over her gorgeous home! My two large dogs (50 and 80 pounders) had a great time lounging around and also watching the squirrels and birds outside. They loved collecting sniffs in the yard and laying to bask in the sun. We lucked out with Krisztina! ❤️”
“I have zero complaints....and Jett doesn't either. Bridget was quick with communication and met us at a dog park before the dates we needed her. She spent about an hour with us at the park. She was very transparent about how her household runs and who would be around Jett for his stay. While in her care she sent daily updates and was flexible with pick up time due to a delayed flight. Jett was very much at ease when I arrived. Bridget is definitely on my list if trusted pet sitters!”
“Renee and her family took great care of our little chihuahua. She sent lots of photos which we really enjoyed. We just booked her again for our next trip. Highly recommend!”
“Hannah & PJ, we’re great with Fletcher! He seemed to have a good time and that put me at ease 🩵 Their dog was a perfect playmate for him. I’m highly recommend their puppy care!”
“Elaine and her family were wonderful. They treated my dogs like their own. Elaine handled my rambunctious 1 year old dog, Annika like a professional dog trainer and Goose, my 4 year old, enjoyed home school with her daughters. Petunia, Elaine's family dog is very sweet and gets along very well with other dogs. I will definitely look to Elaine in the future for any pet boarding needs.”
“Kelly and Jacob were great. They took care of my hyper 3month old Lab puppy for the weekend. My dog seemed to feel safe with them as he was cuddling up with the kids on the couch. Kelly was great about sending pictures of my puppy during his stay and made me not have to worry about if he was okay.”
“Blake was great with Lulu and she enjoyed the stay. He was very accommodating on extremely short notice and worked with us in making everything go smoothly. Will definitely use again.”
“THE most WONDERFUL team of pet sitters EVER!!! The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, the pictures , videos and the love the family has shown, their job and with their furry clients are just a few shining examples of her superior work ethic. My dog actions expressed he was very happy there.”
“Wonderful!! Responds promptly very friendly. Deann took excellent care of our boy could of not ask for a better sitter. She made us feel very comfortable gave updates during our trip. I would recommend her to everyone”
“We have nothing but praise for Scott & Heather. They took such great care of our pup and loved on her. We received lots of amazing pictures throughout our time away. I think our pup had more fun on her "vacation" than we did! Will definitely rebook with Scott & Heather on our next vacation!”
“Diana and her family are amazing! Always taking such a good care of Bella and always keeping me updated with cute pics! Definitely recommend them to watch your fury baby!!”
“Paula and Shubert are Super Host, Both, very responsive and went above and beyond to take great care of our extended child Sofie. I will recommend them both with your pet's needs, as they are very friendly, attentive and dedicated.”
“We left our 2 boys with Tanya for 2 nights and I am so happy we went with her instead of a commercial boarder. My boys seemed very happy and were definitely spoiled. The next time we need to leave the babies we will definitely use her services again!”
About: I sometimes feel like a dog/cat whisper. I have a very calm nature and I think dogs/cats can really pick up on this. I have had animals of my own but could no longer afford the monetary funds it takes to care for dogs and cats. I am a retired active senior citizen and I have a lot of spare time I would love to devote to dog/cat boarding or walking. When I do care for dogs/cats in my home, I try to make sure they feel I care for them and snuggle and hold them, if I am allowed by the animal. I always wait to see if they have sniffed me and that lets me know they are or are not accepting of me.
