“Ollie and Huey enjoyed their stay with Collette and her family. They were comfortable when they walked in the door and she communicated well throughout their stay. We will ask her to care for them again.”

“I took my 2 dogs there for the first time, and Jordan was great to communicate with, and she gave me plenty of updates on how the dogs were doing. I would highly recommend Jordan to take care of your dogs when you need someone to watch them for you.”

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was a little girl! I love watching dogs play together & joining in on the fun! We have wide open spaces out here at our place! Your dog will be sure to enjoy the outdoors here with my 3 dogs, 3 kids and myself! My current work schedule is Monday-Thursday, so I’m available for weekend care Friday-Sunday! Other arrangements can be made if more days are needed! I’m very flexible! Your dog will be so cared for out here! Although we don’t have a fenced in area for your dog to play yet, I will ensure that your dog will get out as much as possible whether it be in a leash or indoors.
About: I have grown up caring for dogs of my own my entire life. I currently have a one year old dalmatian who loves to play outside in our fenced in backyard. I'm available for walks, check-ins, and overnight stays in my home. I work Monday through Friday, but work from home during the months of June, July, and August, so I can be flexible with my schedule to accommodate your pet's needs. On a typical day in the summer I spend a majority of my time outside with my dog. In my own home - My dog will be home with your dog, and they can play inside or in the backyard. My dog has access to the living room, kitchen, and fenced-in backyard through a doggie door. In your home - I will follow instructions from the owner based on your pet's likes and needs. I want to make sure all dogs are comfortable and not stressed.
About: Hello! I am a HUGE dog lover and I would love to hang out with your fur babies! Long walks, beachin, park dates, fetch, and cuddles are some of my favorite things, if this sounds like your pup I think we will become the best of friends! I have many years of dog walking and sitting experience and we always have the best time and I look forward to seeing my little friends again soon. I have no preferences on breeds and any size. I do have a Puggle (pug and beagle) at home and he gets along well with all dogs. If you have any specific questions, I’d love to connect with you and answer any question you may have. Looking forward to hearing from you soon! ~Ciara
