We feel so fortunate to have found Scott! Our golden retriever has the absolute best time at his house; she comes home tired and happy. And he sends the best pictures showing us what she’s up to throughout the day … I wish my kids’ daycare was this thorough!

Briana and her family are so wonderful with Bentley! He is soo excited to see them and looks forward to his day stays; as soon as he gets into the house he’s wagging his tail, prancing around, and greeting everyone. They continue work on command training and crate training with Bentley and he’s doing wonderful generalizing the skills he’s taught between our home and Briana’s. She even gave Bentley a Nylabone for teething and made a doggy gift for Bentley with treats and a round knot ball in a little stocking, so cute! I would absolutely recommend Briana, they’re amazing with our pup! 1000000/10! 😁

My dog had a great first daycare experience with Mackenzie and Anthony. He’s had issues with anxiety with sitters in the past, and did very well with them and their 2 dogs. I highly recommend.

Ali is always prompt and attentive, she gives my pets the love and attention they deserve. She is clearly experienced with animals, and passionate to boot. She sends me cute photos of both my cats, and confirms that they have been played with and fed as scheduled. I love having her petsit!

Samantha is amazing! So are her pets! We booked last minute and she was so willing to work with us! She is very responsive, will get back to you quickly. She sends lots of videos and pictures throughout your pets day! Your pet will get plenty of exercise if you book with Samantha! We have already booked another week with her! My ONLY negative with her would be Ollie is definitely going to miss his friends! ☺️

This was just about as easy as it gets. Dropped Kayce off with a good conversation before I left. Picked him up with another good conversation about how he did and headed home. Normally when I pick him up from doggy daycare he just goes to sleep. He seemed relaxed and not completely worn out. It was great!

Amber has an amazing heart and passion for dogs. We have 3 Great Danes and a puggle that Amber has taken care of for us many times and they love her. They get so excited to see her, knowing that all her attention is wrapped into them. They can't wait for her to take them for a walk or just play for the afternoon or weekend overnight. They are all quite large dogs (average of 155 lbs a piece) but Amber knows just how to handle them. I recommend Amber highly to take care of anyone's dog and trust her to give the best care each and every time! I also trust her to stay in our home with no hesitation she is very trustworthy.

Courtney has been around animals her entire life. As a family, we have had a Dalmatian from puppyhood until 13 years old, a Doberman/German Shepherd Mix from puppyhood until she passed, and currently we have a Black Lab who just turned 13 years old. She has been hands on with feeding, walking and caring for all of our pets. The first thing she does when returning to her childhood home is greet Blaze and shower him with love and attention. Your pets would be in excellent care as Courtney is very detail oriented and would follow all of your pet’s special instructions.

About: I have raised dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, and chickens my entire life. I currently have a Pug and a Boston Terrier, both puppies. I work from home and can provide day care, over nights, walks, pop-ins, etc. I am right down the street from Gateway so if you need a place to drop your animal off on your way to work downtown, I make a convenient drop off location. Very flexible with times. Air conditioning inside, large fully fenced backyard, and walks daily. 24/7 availability for pet care so long as we communicate in advance. I work from home and can be available based on your needs. I am available for drop off and pick up any time. There are a few times throughout the day where I will be driving my kids to and from events. We can communicate and work around those times. I also have a keypad. Animals are watched closely in the home and kept inside the fence in the backyard under supervision. When on walks animals are always on leash and are one on one with me. Separate food and water bowls are used. My yard is cleared of excrement daily. All animals must be up to date with shots and worming and flea/tick prevention.

Paige and her husband took wonderful care of Sam! I was so excited to find a sitter who works from home and doesn’t have their own pets as these are two requirements as my dog has extreme separation anxiety (needs to be with a human) and is other pet/animal reactive. I look forward to the next time Paige dogsits Sam as I know he is in good hands.
