“Emily and her family did an outstanding job of caring for Rizzo. He was having such a fun time, he didn’t want to leave. We’ll definitely be using Emily to care for Rizzo in the future .”


“We couldn't be happier with the care and attention our girl Callie received from Heather and her boyfriend. The 5 day visit consisted of belly rubs, cuddling, and walks in the park, and Heather sent updates, and photos at least twice a day. We will definitely be booking with Heather for future trips, and we highly recommend her, and her boyfriend. Such nice people and so obviously in love with the furbabies in their care! Thank you both so much!”


“This was Maggie’s first time with Jill. She was boarded when she was 1 and had such a traumatic experience we weren’t sure we could leave her with a non-family member again… but she seemed to really enjoy Jill! She was happy to see me upon return, but was also so excited around Jill, I knew she was treated well and loved on. We received pictures and updates which put our minds at ease. Thank you, Jill, for loving on our girl. (We’ve already booked Jill for next time!)”


“Carol was so kind and warm and my sweet Daphne felt very at home with her and Shorty while we traveled. I appreciated that she did a meet and greet beforehand and that she sent photo updates while we were away. When our return flights were delayed, Carol was gracious and flexible about the extra time. I feel lucky to have found such a great person and petsitter.”


“Corinna was awesome! Everything went perfectly from the initial conversation to plan Max’s drop-off all the way until pickup. Corinna was attentive to all of Max’s special needs, she was very accommodating & had a wonderful set-up for Max to feel comfortable. She also had excellent communication skills, providing many photos & updates throughout his stay. I highly recommend Corinna. A++”


“Cathleen was more than we could have asked for. She took the time to meet us beforehand, to get to know us and our dog. She sent us pictures and updates throughout Sammy's visit. She met us at the drop-off and pick up to chat. We highly recommend her….”


“11/10 recommend. it was my puppies first time staying outside of our home and Katelyn was great! she was very accommodating when we arrived later than expected and sent many pictures updates. will definitely book again 🥰🥰”


“Andrea was a great host to our KoKo. She kept us in the know with status updates as well as pictures. We contacted her last minute, but her communication and willingness to serve was evident as we came up with time lines that worked for her and us. 10/10. Andrea will get our service in the future.”


“Anna-Lena is the person you can absolutely feel safe and comfortable having your best friend stay with her! She was incredibly helpful with watching over my dog by having great communication, greeting the dogs and keeping me up to date with pictures and little notes on the stay! I know my dog enjoyed herself and I was able to enjoy myself knowing my dog was with someone that takes safety, security, and also fun into staying with her! She will always be my first choice whenever help is needed again!”


“Kathleen took great care of Poppy. She gave him tons of walks and love and even introduced him to her friends. She went above and beyond feeding Poppy healthy food that she purchased herself. Kathleen sent Poppy home clean after giving him a bath. None of this was requested. This shows the love she pours into the animals she cares for. A++.”


“Jake was great with Dexter. He responded quickly and maintained great communication. He was also very flexible with my hours of availability. Dexter enjoyed his time with Jake and seemed very happy. I would definitely bring him back.”


“Luna had a great time at Terry’s with his other pups. It was nice to know she was in good hands and good company while we were out town. I will gladly have Terry watch her again next time we need someone!”

About: On top of being a veterinary assistant for over three years, I have also taken care of pets of my own and family and friends' since I was very young. I began working at the humane society at 14 and haven't stopped working with animals since! I have a B.S in Animal Ecology, and am currently working towards becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician. I currently work full-time at a veterinary hospital with weekends free. I never work past 6:30pm and never go in before 7am. Once a week I am off at 2pm, and another day I do not go in until 12pm. This provides me a flexible schedule to take care of your furry kiddos! I have a large yard that will be fully fenced in by the end of the summer, and a very friendly dog myself who loves to make new friends. I also have very tolerant cats that adapt to new friends as well! I have a spare room and crate available if needed. I have my own nail trimming supplies and transportation for myself and even for your fur baby if needed!
