“Crystal and her son are amazing!!! They made our boys feel right at home!! We could tell Crystal and her son provided the boys with lots of love and attention, which is quite the task with our attention seeking boxers :) Crystal is very accommodating and responsive with communication before, during and after their stay. We received pictures and updates throughout, I couldn’t have been happier with her services!! We definitely recommend Crystal and are happy that we found someone to take care of the boys instead of having them go to a kennel environment!!! They were loved and taken care of 24/7 and it showed!! :)”


“Ashley was AMAZING with our two pups! We never leave without them because they have anxiety. Ashley came in and immediately our dogs were excited and comfortable around her! Without a doubt we will be using Ashley for our future needs!”


“We had to find a new sitter very quickly for a trip out of the country. We did a meet and greet with Tessa and our animals loved her. She was FANTASTIC. She stayed in our home for 9 days and took excellent care of my two cats and special needs dog. We were very nervous about leaving our dog (Rhone) who has epilepsy with a new sitter but Tessa was calm, responsible, and easily handled all the care details for her. Tessa was respectful of our home and even laundered the sheets and towels before. I will not hesitate to have Tessa stay in our home again.”


“Amanda L. was a fantastic pet sitter for our female dachshund, Koko. We highly recommend her and will definitely ask for her to watch our pup again! Amanda always kept us up to date on Koko's antics and sent pictures so we didn't miss her too much. She went above and beyond what we expected and we greatly appreciate the care she provided and I know Koko loved her back! Amanda possesses all the qualities you want and more in someone to care for your animal - she is caring, dependable, mature, thoughtful, and we can tell she really loves animals! Thank you Amanda for a job well done!!”


About: I can do boarding for any friendly cat since I have 2 kittens but it would be hard for me to watch a dog in my apartment or board a dog so I would have to come to your house to watch your dog. For any visit that I will make to your house, I will make absolute sure that your dog is comfortable with me being there, then I will gain their trust so that every time I come back they will get more and more happy that their friend Nikki is coming to take care of them! If your dog needs a walk, don't worry! I have experience with a dog that weighs a good 100 pounds, so they can't run away from me! I'll even clean up after your pooch after they go to the bathroom, just to make sure your neighbors don't get angry with me! Also, any animal I meet I love, so that means any job I take, I will be more than happy to keep returning to your house, or walking your dog(s)!

“Amber was absolutely amazing with our 11 month old puppy and kitten and our older cat while we were away for a week! She sent daily updates and pictures on everyone and house-sat as well, we came home to a tidy home and happy pets! Her boys came along some days and managed to wear down the Labrador energy! She followed all of our instructions to a tee and we are so very pleased at the professionalism she showed until the very end of our trip. We will definitely be using her services again! Many thanks for aiding in the discovery of our pets' new best friend!!”


“5/5!!!!! I secretively didnt want to write this review because I didnt want everyone to know how amazing Bekah is with our boys! But, I have to do whats right ◡̈ Bekah is fantastic! Our boys absolutely love her and were sad to see her go. They cannot wait to cuddle with her again soon!! Thank you so much!”


About: Hi! My name is Kat, but I get it if that’s a dirty word in your house. I’ve been lucky to grow up with dogs of all levels; Huskies, Mastiffs, Pugs, etc. I started watching friends, family, and neighbors pets in 2019 and in 2021 I rescued my beautiful Cane Corso! I love all animals and can be trusted to treat your fur-baby with the upmost care and attention. I’m very active so I’m happy to play/hike/walk all day, I’ve even roller-skated with a pup. As I mentioned, I have a rescued giant breed. With her being a tougher rescue she has taught me how to handle almost any situation. She is reactive on walks so I’ve done training to continue to get her exercise with as much ease as possible. That being said, I can handle most dogs at all levels, no matter the size. Currently, I work 3 evenings a week with open daytime availability. I can drop in or take your pup for a walk anytime during the day and most evenings. I exercise often and go on lots of walks through the day, so if you have a high energy dog it’s no challenge for me. I wait a bit between exercise and feeding but I will prepare the food exactly how you and your pup prefer. I’m comfortable with crating and have done crate training.

Nicole K.
“I have a 5 year old Bernese Mountain Dog named Dakota. She is approximately 110 pounds and every well trained. Nicole (we call her Nikki) has been to my house when home from University for about a year and has been always exceptional with Dakota. She calls for her to come and lay beside her and pets her - she plays with her in the yard - and takes her for walks around the plan. I believe that Nikki is more than acceptable to become a dog sitter and a loving dog caregiver. She has proved to be responsible - intelligent - and well suited for this position. You are making a good decision.”
