Sara took great care of our young dog on his first ever sleep-away. She gave him extra attention with walks and play time, and kept us updated with photos, which was appreciated. Sara is great. I would highly recommend her.

It is obvious Doug truly cares and loves all dogs. He welcomes in my dog and even sent picture and video updates while he was there. We’ll absolutely be using Doug again.

Both dogs did very well with Thomas. I would book with him again. Very flexible with pick up and drop off. Beautiful house and yard. I felt like they would be safe there.

Alexis is an rockstar sitter. When we arrived she was prepared and had a solid process that let us know she knew dogs. Her residence is an ideal setting to give you price of mind that your pet is safe and has opportunities to find a comfort zone. Expect great piece of mind!

About: I have had dogs my entire life, and love spending time with them. I would have a house full if I could! I have experience taking care of dogs from 8 weeks old to senior, and I have administered medication of many kinds. I am currently a stay at home mom of 4 (teens,tweens and a kindergarten age kiddo), so I am home most of the day. Some of my kids do participate in school sports and there are times where I am gone for a few hours here or there. Besides that, I’m always home. I currently live on a lake, tucked back about 5 miles from the highway. It’s a new construction, so while I do plan to eventually get a fence put up, right now I do not have a fenced yard. I do however have a tie out for potty breaks, and will go on daily walks. If requested, I will personally go outside with your pup during potty breaks. I also have two golden retrievers in our home that love to have fun, swim, and play. They are guaranteed to keep your pup busy. You need to be aware that I can only watch pups who tolerate kids. While my kids are very respectful of animals, I do still need confirmation they are okay with kids present in the home. They also will be crated in the event that I need to leave home for a short time.

Abigail was the perfect fit for watching Scotch for a weekend! She was quick to respond, kept us updated with texts and pictures and took such great care of Scotch! She allowed a meet and greet prior to the weekend to put Scotch and I at ease. He was smiling our whole way home. We will absolutely use Abigail again and recommend her to anyone who wants to be sure to have a trusting and loving dog sitter!
