“We had a great experience with Nichole! We left our 2 dogs (3 and 14). She was great with them, and they seemed really comfortable and happy when we picked them up! She also gave them a bath on pickup which was so nice.”

“I can't recommend Monica enough for anyone in need of a caring, reliable, and overall amazing dog sitter. She was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making the booking process a breeze. During our time away, Monica kept me updated with regular photos, a video and messages, which really put my mind at ease knowing that our Gracie was happy and well taken care of. You can tell that Monica has a genuine love for animals. Upon returning home, I could tell that my dog had a fantastic time with Monica and her family. Gracie was relaxed and happy. I will definitely feel comfortable with leaving Gracie at her house again when we need to go away.”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Currently, I care for two of my own—Sparky, my sweet 13-year-old Bichon Frise, and Shelby, my playful 1-year-old Miniature Goldendoodle. Having both a senior dog and a young, energetic pup has given me a wide range of hands-on experience, from managing health needs and gentle senior care to keeping up with puppy energy, training, and teething phases. In the past, I also cared for an American Pitbull Terrier for 5 years, and over the years I’ve looked after many dogs for friends, neighbors, and family members. Some of the breeds I’ve worked with include Chihuahuas, Beagles, Golden Retrievers, Pomeranians, and a variety of lovable mixes. Every dog is unique, and I truly enjoy getting to know each one’s personality and quirks. Whether they’re shy or outgoing, young or elderly, I’m patient, gentle, and always happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’m usually available Monday through Friday, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to walk, play with, and care for your pup. Whether they need a midday stroll, some company while you’re away, or just a little extra love and attention, I’m happy to be there for them. I’m home often, so I’m able to keep a close eye on the dogs and make sure they’re always safe and cared for. While my yard is open and unfenced, I never leave dogs outside unattended—they’re always on a leash and supervised, with access to a sunny, enclosed sunroom for extra comfort. For smaller dogs, I have a crate available if preferred by the owner, and I’m also able to provide transport in case of a vet emergency. My home is stocked with cozy blankets and toys that are always available for dogs to borrow and enjoy. Located in a quiet, beautiful area, the home offers plenty of space to explore, bird- and squirrel-watching opportunities, and nearby parks for peaceful outings. The spacious living room and multiple rooms allow for safe separation if needed, ensuring every dog feels comfortable. Most of all, your pup will enjoy peace, safety, and lots of love while in my care.
“Meredith did a great job with my two girls! I was a little concerned at first, not sure if she could handle my 10 month old German Shepherd, Jream, but overall, she did very well even without having a fenced yard. My girls still got a full hour of playtime in a nearby fenced area where they were able to run and play ball freely. Meredith followed all my instructions, and I would definitely use her again.”
“Jasmine was always quick to respond and happy to answer any questions. She took good care of our dog, who had the whole basement to herself during her stay. We would definitely use Jasmine's services again!”
About: I've had many years of dog experience. Working in a dog Inn, I've met dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments. From very anxious pups to reactive older dogs, I can garentee your pup will be well loved under my care. I've been doing training for several years, we practice positive reinforcement training in our home. My own pup is special needs, being born with megaesophagus. It is important to me to make sure your pup feels safe and comfortable in my care, and if your pup needs some special attention I will happily help! Im working a part time job, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! Any day of the week, no matter of early or late. If your dog was to stay in our home, we have a lovely half an acre yard for them to play in. I have two friendly pups in my home, but I also have two extra rooms. So if your pup wants to be alone and play, my dogs will be put away in their kennels while your pup is around. If your pup needs to be kenneled, that works too! They would have a quiet room to be kenneled in. Making sure your pup is comfortable is our biggest priority, whether it's in my home or yours!
“McKenna and family took such great care of Rocko! We received frequent updates and photos and loved seeing how comfortable he was there. We look forward to having Rocko stay again!”
About: I've been taking care of dog for as long as I can remember. I'm able to take care of/ watch dog from puppies to seniors. I've watched dog with and without disabilities, and I know how to administer medications from pills to shots. I also know how to preform cpr and the heimlich if needed. I currently have a part time job where I get to choose when to work. So I'm able to spend time with the fur babies whenever. I'm very respectful of my clients homes, and I follow rules that they set of me. I like to keep my clients updated on what's going on with plenty of photos, and I always try to make sure the fur babies I'm watching have a good time.
About: I’ve never had a time where I did not have at least one dog. I love animals and would love to help give your pups a place to feel comforted and loved when you are away. I do work full-time but am typically only out of the house from 8:30am to about 4pm daily. After this we are home all evening and able to care for the pups as needed! I have a big fenced in yard for running and playing! I have 4 kids and 2 dogs of my own to play with! We are a cat free home to cater to those dog breeds that a natural critter chasers!
