“My colleague recommended Howard to me as “the dog whisperer” and I can’t agree more! I was a little nervous to drop my pup off for daycare less than a week after rescuing her, as she is quite wary of strangers. She jumped right into Howard’s arms and apparently spent the rest of the day happy as can be cuddled on his lap. She came home happy, tired, and ready for dinner & bed! Howard also does a wonderful job of sending updates and photos throughout the day. The first day she went to Howard’s, my pup hadn’t pooped in 2 days and it was something I was worried about. He sent me a text as soon as she went so that I would have peace of mind. She has since been back to Howard’s a few times a week and I can not recommend him more!”

“By far the most comfortable we’ve ever felt leaving our very loved dog anywhere. Jieun was extremely responsive, loving to our girl, and sent amazing photos and updates during the day. Couldn’t have been happier with her care!”


“Mariana is amazing. Izzy loves her daycare visits and enjoys spending time with her and her two dogs. She sends lots of photos so you know your dog is having a great time.”


“Malik was great with our dog, Olive, who generally doesn't like not being with us. He also sent us pictures and updates on how she was doing during the day, and was easy to communicate and schedule with. Thanks, Malik!”


“Max had a great first day of daycare with Cheyanne and her pups. Leading up to this stay, Cheyanne was very friendly, quick to respond, answered all my questions, and seemed very knowledgeable. She sent some cute photos, and Max came home happy and relaxed. We will definitely book again!”


“Highly recommend this home! Took excellent loving care of our little doggy!”


“Nyassia was very attentive to Chai, she kept me updated on everything and sent me pictures. And Chai came home with a goodie bag 🥺 Thank you for taking such good care of my baby”


“The best”


“Merlin had a BLAST with Raeven and team. We received a bunch of photos and a video that captured his personality and illustrated his enjoyment. 10/10 - your pup will enjoy a day with their squad.”


“My fur baby requires a great deal of attention due to some health challenges. This makes me very careful about who cares for him. I am so Blessed to have Liza taking care of my lil guy. I would highly recommend her to people that need puppy ? care”



“I am incredibly grateful to Mikayla and Justin for being so patient and caring for my senior dog Leyla. Thank you so much!”


“Our Pup had a great time, she was welcomed in and had a great time. Melisa is kind, laid back and Nola had a wonderful time. Her yard is fenced in and a safe environment. Would recommend and will use again”


“Truc watched our Russell terrier Ozzie for the day when we were in the area on vacation. Ozzie left happy and tired, and had a great time with her lab Calvin. Truc was very responsive and easy to communicate with, took special care to ensure Ozzie adjusted well, and even took him on a special adventure in town. Would highly recommend. Thank you Truc!”


About: I have had cats my whole life and a family dog. I am an approved dog foster and enjoy getting to know pets and making them feel loved :) I am a remote learning student! Which gives me plenty of time to go out and spend time with pets. Not usually available on the weekends. I have 3 sweet cats which can be separated from pets if needed. My priority will always be to keep your pet safe and comfortable!

About: I will take care of your best friend with the same love I show my sweet Labrador’s. I will show patience and love with each of your dogs walks and make sure that they get all their business done, plenty of exercise and time for sniffing all the things as well. If I sit over night you will have to specify not to let them on the bed bc I will want to snuggle and make them feel at ease while you are gone. I will send pictures of your pet playing, relaxing and keep you up to date on if he/she used the bathroom and make you feel comfortable while away from your pet because I know it’s not always easy. I will be your best friends, friend.

About: I can provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching experience for your fur baby. I’ve had labs, a Rottweiler, and a poodle. Comfortable giving meds too and caring for older dogs. I prefer dogs to be bathed prior to boarding. My job allows me flexibility because I work from home. It will be easy to sit, feed, and walk your dog and be a companion. I prefer dogs to be bathed prior to boarding. I can easily crate your dog if needed and take he/she for walks such as down to the park or the beach or town center.


“Mattie had a wonderful time! She loves staying with Sylvia! And we don’t have to worry about her knowing she’s in good hands while we are away.”

Between the three of us, someone is usually home. Let us know what you need and let’s see if we can make it work! When you book with us, we lock your rates in so you pay the same rate for future bookings. Your dog will be treated like one of the family! We offer free Meet and Greets to make sure everyone is comfortable before the stay begins. We take just one family at a time.

“Mary-Ellen took care of our blind Shih Tzu, "Peanut" for the day in her home this past weekend and was just AMAZING with her! She was so interested to find out all the little details ahead of time to ensure that they had a fun and comfortable day. Because of Peanut's special needs, my boyfriend and I are very nervous about leaving her with sitters, but after meeting Mary-Ellen, we felt sure that she would be in the best of hands. Mary-Ellen sent updates throughout the day along with several photos so I could see what fun they were having. Mary Ellen's home is adorable and sparkling clean, and as an added bonus, her daughter and Peanut really hit it off and had a wonderful time together. We would highly recommend Mary Ellen to others and will definitely book her again in the future.”


About: Born into a family with a dog, I was "groomed fur this." I've never not had cats and dogs. I spent several years with a breeder as a live-in nanny to the puppies of a Labrador and a Dachshund, and the kittens of a Persian and a Himalayan cat. I currently have two older rescue dogs, and two cats. I work from home, so my pets get lots of personal attention. I put on the soft music with the birds for my cat who demands it by sitting on the table and chirping at the TV. If I go out, they have their beds and blankets for nap time, and we go outside as soon as I return. Every couple of days, I make the dog food in the slow cooker. We take walks around the yard with one of the cats who uses the outside potty with the dogs. My pets sit in their beds, on a chair, or the couch in the same room where I am working. I have all the beds lined up and I snuggle each one into a bed with a blanket and pillow. I can easily crate your dog or keep your pet in a separate space. Every few hours, we take a walk outside.

Marie B.
“Marie has been caring for my kitties as if they are her own for multiple years. She treats them with the utmost care and love and I can always trust that they will be well taken care of! She is also great with dogs and every other animal I've seen her with. I've personally witnessed her walking, playing with, and caring for little and big dogs alike! She has the energy and desire to keep up - and bonus, she enjoys the rain and snow!”


Mandy L.
“Mandy takes great care of my little dog, Blaze, whenever I leave town for work, which is 1 to 2 times a month.

I highly recommend her!”


Marie G.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Marie as a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter/walker. She is caring, loving and responsible. I’ve always been impressed by her reliability and genuine love for animals.

I always have peace of mind knowing my baby is in such capable hands.”

Naomi M.
“I have known Naomi for almost 20 years and have known her to have 1-3 pups that she has called her own at any time. When I say “called her own” I mean she treats her dogs as her family and with that I have seen her make the best homemade chicken, veggie, and rice “dog food” that I have also enjoyed since it was a delicious protein and nutrient rich meal for all creatures. All dogs with her get the same care, food and love that family gets. Period. I highly recommend Naomi.”
