About: Expect prioritizing clear, consistent communication, demonstrating reliability and experience, and going the extra mile to ensure the pet's well-being and the owner's peace of mind. I am currently working as a therapist remotely and am very flexible with being able to take care of your loved pets. Communicate with me and we will make it work! I have a huge yard where your animal will be able to run around on with a yard leash. I also have a 3 year old doodle they can play with who loves other dogs.

About: I love dogs. I have a rescue her name is Snickers and shes 7 months old. I've had dogs all my life. How anyone can hurt man's best friend is beyond me. She is like my child and makes me smile, keeps me company and I dont know what I would do without her. I love her with all my heart and wouldnt trade her for the world. I would treat anyone's dog like I would my own. They are all special in their own way. I would be honored to take care of your dog, I look forward to meeting you very soon. Thank you, Robin K I work full time at home and I'm able to walk my dog and take her out anytime! I'm available all day. My Snickers would love a play mate. I dont have crate but if yours needs one you'll have to bring it. I'm very diligent in taking my pup out all day long.

“Our dog Lance was cared for by Jo and her husband Mike. We were extremely happy with the care he received while we were on vacation. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her as a sitter.”



“There aren’t enough words that can be used to describe how awesome Maria was with Cooper. She put us at ease with initially setting up a meeting to get Cooper comfortable with her. Then as the trip started she made sure to keep in contact with us and sent pictures of his day. As a bonus Cooper got to have a play mate and really enjoyed himself. We would recommend Maria to anyone who really wants to make sure their little guy is taken care of.”


“Absolute gem of a sitter! Bella had a great time with Dawn and her family for two nights. They are incredibly nice caring people. They took great care of Bella and provided updates with photos throughout the stay. I recommend Dawn be everyone’s first choice!”


About: I have been around dogs my entire life. Can care for any age dog and any breed. From your couch potato to your high energy zoomie pup! I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I spend most of my time at home so your dog won’t be alone! I have baby gates to separate rooms. I also have crates should a dog need to be crated. I have a decent size back yard, but if the dog can’t be off leash then plenty of walks are provided!

“My dog had a blast with Paul! Plenty of yard space to run around and socialize with other dogs. I received daily videos/picture updates on how he was doing. Will definitely be coming back for future stays.”


“Megan is a great sitter; super kind and very accommodating. She provides tons of pictures and updates every day and is reliable with administering medicine and reading directions. Her kids seemed very sweet and gentle and I got the vibe they gave my dog the perfect amount of attention(not too much not too little). I would deffinately use Megan again, she's one of the best I've ever used.”


“We had an awesome experience with Shankar. He and his family took great care of Bruce. He shared pictures through the stay which put our minds at ease. Bruce had a great time there with Piku his dog. He came back home very happy and had a great time with them. We would certainly board Bruce with him again. Thank you.”


“Meli was a great sitter! She’s very friendly and attentive. She also has great communication and gave us plenty of updates. I can tell our puppy had a great time while staying with her 😊”


“Kendra was absolutely amazing. From the moment I walked in I knew Scout would be well cared for and would also have a fun furry companion to play with. Kendra is very attentive to details, warm, welcoming to cuddle a sometimes shy dog and my pup enjoyed lots of exercise and play. Thank you Kendra!”
