Jennifer and her family took good care of our little Jax. She sent pictures with updates during his stay. He seemed very happy and relaxed with them. We are glad we found someone who not only can take care of him but also cares about his well being.

Jonathan, is an amazing dog dad! He has had many different breeds under his care throughout his life. I trust him with my dog any time I am out of town or unable to take my pup for a walk. He will ensure your dog is taken care of to the highest degree. Affectionate, responsive, and attentive are all qualities that make him my trusted dog sitter and walker when I am in need!

About: I’ve been around all types of pets and admired every one, I truly love having them around and ever since I lost my dog Tyson to cancer a lot of animals have been more friendly around me I’m a self employed photographer so pet care doesn’t get on the way at all of my bookings as long as we communicate clearly our schedules Whenever possible I incorporate the space that’s available for activities to do it your pet I’ll always find something for them to do in terms of training or playing for repeat clients

i had the pleasure of having holly take care of my dogs, pi and nora, during the hectic preparations of my wedding. she truly went above and beyond in ensuring their well-being. hollys dedication and love for animals were evident in the exceptional care she provided. from regular walks to plenty of attention and pictures, she treated them like family. what truly stood out was when holly offered to bring pi and nora to the wedding venue for photos. it was an incredible gesture that made our day even more memorable. i am immensely grateful for hollys professionalism, reliability, and the peace of mind she gave to me during this special time. if you’re looking for someone who will go the extra mile and tear your pets with love and care, i highly recommend holly

Janette took great care of my 15 year old poodle. And she was very patient with him when he was a little nervous in the beginning. She made sure to keep in contact with me to give me updates.

Jolene was absolutely wonderful. My dog is a little wary around new people and Jolene was willing to meet a couple of times to help Panda feel a little more at ease. She was very communicative during the stay and sent lots of pictures. We will be using her again!

Dora was wonderful. She keep me updated daily with what Camila did every day with pictures, that help keep my mind at ease during my trip. She made sure she was comfortable and happy with her and the rest of her fur babies. Lots of walks and took her around town to keep her active and happy. Overall I can’t recommend her enough I will be asking for her services again and I bet Camila will be very happy to see her as well.

Our two dogs, Freya and Blu, had a great stay with Tyler and his family! They also had a lot of fun playing with the family dog, Simba, and Tyler sent regular pics and video of the dogs playing and frolicking in their HUGE backyard. Our lab, Blu, never gets tired of playing fetch, and luckily, Tyler’s kids were on hand to throw the tennis ball. Tyler has a lot of experience with Shepherds (Freya is a White Shepherd) so I felt confident in his abilities. Highly recommended, and would definitely use again if we go out of town.
