1. Mackenzie M.
“Mackenzie was fantastic. She kept us well informed on how Charlie (our lab) was doing and getting along with the other dogs. Charlie had a great time playing with new friends and splashing in the kiddie pool. We will definitely use Mackenzie again in the future.”
2. Paige P.
“Our puppies had a great time at their sleepover with Paige and they came home smelling so good! That was above and beyond! Will definitely be repeat clients.”
3. Catherine H.
“This was our first time leaving our dog with a non-family member and I can't overstate how happy we were with Cathy. She sent us daily pictures with text updates as to how our dog was doing which put our minds at ease. From the time we met her we could just tell how much she loved animals. The most important thing is we are pretty sure that our dog enjoyed his stay. He did not come home stressed out as he has in the past from staying at other boarders. We think he almost misses playing and interacting with Cathy's other dog Maddie and the kids. We would and plan on using Cathy again in the future and would certainly recommend her to anyone.”
4. Ciara H.
“When I took my pups to meet Ciara and her dogs, Buster and Simon did not hesitate at all to meet her and her dogs. Ciara was very quick in responding to any messages and she also sent me a video of them playing in the snow. I am very pleased with the care that was given. I will definitely re-book with Ciara next time we need a sitter.”
5. Josiah P.
“Josiah truly loves dogs. Ragnar is a social pup and loved playing with the other dogs. Josiah took him on outings and gave Ragnar so much good playtime, which he needs. Definitely a good fit for a high energy pet.”

8. Sarah H.
“First time user with Rover here :-). Sarah and family immediately made me feel at peace with leaving my pug. Layla has poor eyesight and hard of hearing, so it was concerned. Sarah set up a meet and greet to see if Layla would be a good match. Sarah's home was very cheerful, clean and smelled great! Layla was happy and sleepy after her little vacation! Definitely will request Sarah anytime we need to go out of town. Thanks Sarah”

“First time leaving my dogs in 2 years and from the text and pictures they enjoyed their time at Nathan’s. He kept in contact with me throughout the week with complete updates and he allowed me to pick them up before the appointed time. It’s hard to leave my girls but Nathan was wonderful to them.”

19. Sarah S.
About: I have two years of veterinary assistant experience as well as the experience of owning my own pets. I have assisted in pre-and post operative care as well as recovery. I also have experience with day to day activities such as administering medications, sublax injections, feeding schedules, and exercise. I am currently self employed and I own 6 pets! My schedule is VERY flexible and allows for adequate animal care required for walks or boarding! Providing a safe and reliable environment is my baseline for working with your furbabies. Pets are family and I understand the love and compassion we have for our furry friends. For boarding, we have a doggie door that leads to a fenced in backyard. We manually feed twice a day with Purina Pro. If you would like different food, please provide. Feeding schedules for boarding is able to be altered according to your dog’s needs. We do have a XL dog crate as well if you want them crated at night or when I am not home. I am home majority of the day and only leave for errands. However, our dogs do not need to be crated and cats have access to the doggie door 100% of the time and they sleep with us so if you allow that, they will be free rein indoors at night! I do take my dogs on walks daily so if you would like your dogs to also go on daily walks while being boarded, just let me know—no extra charge since I’m already walking my babies! Meet and Greets for Boarding will be conducted at my house so you can see where your doggie will be staying! For Pet Sitting, I find it best to work around your specific situations and needs! We can discuss at meet and greet on rules for household and feeding schedules, any allergies, etc. Meet and Greets for pet sitting are conducted at your place of residence to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for meeting your furbabies. It also allows you to show me where you store food, toys, treats, etc.
20. Nina S.
“Nina is an extremely kind and warm person! She is the biggest animal lover I know! She’s cared for my animals on multiple occasions and treated them like her own. When I come home from her watching them they aren’t even mad at me you can tell she gave them the love and care she would give her own. She’s very flexible, responsive, and reliable. 20/10 recommend her to care for your fur babies!”
