“Jason was a great sitter for our rather demanding Dobie pup! He was also very good about our fluctuating schedule and was always accommodating. He sent many pictures and updates which were very much appreciated. Our pup loved playing with his dog Timber and she was exhausted upon returning home!”
“Rizzo had a great day hanging out with Adela and her fam. Lots of outdoor time in her amazing backyard. Great communication with Adela. Thanks for another great stay! 🐾”
“Madison took great care of our German Shepherd, Bruno. She met us prior to boarding and also provided pick up & drop off. We are sure Bruno had a great time at Madison’s based on updates we received. Will certainly rebook in future.”
“Jake is definitely the most responsible person I have ever met. He always answered my questions very quickly. My two cats are well looked after by him. He knows how to care for cats with different personalities. When we came to pick up the cat, Jake had already packed the cat's things in advance. My cats get along so well with him, they don't even want to go home! He is really nice. 100% recommend him.”
“Robert was available short notice to watch Lily. He sent me pictures and updates of Lily throughout her stay, and even took her to the dog park numerous times! He went above and beyond to make sure Lily felt comfortable and well-cared for. I will definitely book with Robert again!”
“If we could rate more than 5 stars we would! It’s stressful leaving your pets behind while you go on a trip, but we knew they were in good care with the daily updates and photos we received. We would recommend them to anyone looking for pet care. Thanks Sydney and Michael!”
“Nova had great time staying with Isaac and his family for a long weekend. He and his daughter were wonderful caretakers of Nova! We received updates and pictures throughout the day, which is always nice! They were incredibly accommodating with our changing schedule. They spoiled her with treats and walks. We will definitely be reaching out again next time we need someone!”
“Great sitters! They included our dog in everything extra they did with their own dogs. They knew she loves to hike/explore, go on rides, play & she loves to cuddle and they did it all!! We would definitely recommend them as they treated her like their own.”
“We had the best experience with Trish! She watched our two goldendoodles for two weeks while we were away. She sent several photo updates everyday - of them getting snuggles, playing fetch in their backyard, getting yummy homemade treats - which showed that she was taking such great care of our pups. Trish even brushed our dogs routinely which we didn’t ask her to do! She was so warm, welcoming, responsive, and trustworthy from the first message to the final pickup. She clearly adores dogs, well definitely book her again and we would strongly recommend her to anyone!”
“Pip had a wonderful time at Emily’s home with her and her Fiancés dog Frankie! Emily was flexible with scheduling pickup and drop off times and sent plenty of fun photos! Pip will be visiting again!”
“Kelly treated my dog as one of her own! She took him on walks, made him a special Sunday breakfast, and let him play in the kiddie pool with her 2 other dogs all weekend. I will absolutely be rebooking with her if I ever need boarding services in the future.”
“Mahvish & Syed were great! I couldn’t have asked for a better pair to watch Kip. They communicate very well, provide updates and pictures to let me know how Kip was doing. They were very accommodating and asked questions in advance to make sure they would be the right fit for Kip. I highly recommend them to watch your pets!”
About: I grew up on a farm, so I've always been surrounded by animals and have developed a natural ability to care for them. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of animal behavior. I’m not only comfortable with dogs of all ages but also have experience handling puppies and providing senior dog care. I work from home, which allows me to give your pet my full attention throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I'll be the one taking care of your pet personally, ensuring they get plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. We have a dog at home and an unfenced yard, but we're just one block away from a dog park, so your pet will have plenty of opportunities for outdoor play and exercise. If needed, we can crate our dog to ensure safety and comfort during your pet's visit. We always prioritize the well-being of all pets in our care and will adjust our home environment as needed to meet your pet's needs.
