About: Animal lover with hands-on experience raising wildlife from a young age and a professional background as a veterinary technician. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all personalities, ages, and medical needs. What sets me apart is the calm, patient, and attentive care I provide — I treat every pet like family and focus on making them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care naturally fits into my daily life as I’m currently home all day with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’ve raised wildlife from a young age and also have a background as a veterinary technician, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. My home provides a safe, calm, and loving atmosphere where pets are treated like family. I also currently volunteer at the humane society with my daughter, which reflects how important animal care and compassion are in our everyday lives. I have a fully fenced backyard, plenty of dog toys and treats, and provide a safe, loving environment for pets. We currently do two walks a day with our pup, River, so daily exercise and attention are already part of our routine. We also have two dog-friendly cats that are comfortable around other animals.
“Sarah took great care of our golden retriever, Phoenix, while we took a brief vacation. He fit in well with her dog, and we got many great pictures from Sarah to update us while we were away. We were super comfortable with our dog's stay even though we had never left him with anyone before. I heartily recommend Sarah for you and your dog.”
“This was Khloe’s first time ever being away from home. I wasn’t nervous for Khloe because she is very sweet & pretty much loves everyone! Ebony was super good with her. Communication was perfect. Khloe seemed to have a really good time. I would definitely recommend Ebony to watch over your fur baby! If ever needed again, I would most definitely go back to her! 10 out of 10!”
“Libby and Argo took amazing care of our senior dog Lillie and our new puppy Cooper. We got frequent updates and pictures and they made our dogs feel at home. We will continue to book with them!”
“Emily was awesome and so kind! I was so nervous about leaving my dog for two weeks since it was my first time being away from him. He takes medication and has issues eating at times, so I was worried about how he would do. She immediately put my mind at ease with her kindness, communication, and genuine care for him. She took such great care of him, made sure he got everything he needed, and kept me updated while I was away, which meant so much to me. It was obvious that she treated him like one of her own. I am so grateful for everything she did and will absolutely trust her with my dog again in the future. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and attentive to care for your pet, I highly recommend her!”
“I have used Christine and David 3 or 4 times now and couldn’t be happier. My big boy has stranger danger and he loves going to hang out with them and their sweet dog Dory. They send tons of pictures to keep you informed. Message me with any questions or concerns. Couldn’t be happier with them caring for my big sweet boy. Thank you for everything!”
“Lesley was wonderful and I was very pleased with the communcation and how she took care of Zep! It was Zep's first time staying with anyone besides family and I would definitely have Zep stay with Leslley again”

Kayla accepted my boarding request last minute and took excellent care of my pup. She listened to my spiel about my pup’s care, and asked great clarifying questions that let me know she was experienced and has a strong attention to detail. I felt confident that her and her family gave my pup plenty of love during her stay. Will happily book again.
Jenay was great and I can tell her and her kids love all the pups that come to their house. My golden retriever ran right into her house when I dropped him off and the daily pics Jenay sent me showed just how much fun he had. It was so lovely to not have to worry about my pup and if he was safe and happy! Will definitely be back next time we are out of town. Highly recommend! She is extremely sweet and responds very quickly which I think all pet parents can appreciate! Thanks again Jenay
Stephanie W was absolutely amazing with our dog, HoneyBun. She treated her like a princess from the moment she arrived and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. HoneyBun was well cared for, taken on walks, and Stephanie kept us updated with pictures, videos, and messages throughout her stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing HoneyBun was in such loving and reliable hands. We could tell she was happy, comfortable, and cared for like family. I highly recommend Stephanie W to anyone looking for a sitter who truly goes above and beyond.
