Moose and our family absolutely adore Janelle and her kids! A very cozy, clean and comforting home for play, sleep and everything you may need for your pup for their stay!

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, and I've always had the responsibility of taking care of them. I've cared for family dogs and I help my daughter with the care of dogs and cats. I like to make dogs feel at home. I don't work, I'm always at home, and if I have to go out I always take the dog with me; it gives me time to take him out to do his business, play with him, and he always feels accompanied. I live in an apartment with a garden where they can relieve themselves and a gated parking area, but I still prefer taking them to the park to walk and play.

About: Since very young I have always loved furry babies! I'm thrilled to extend my love and care to the furry babies in my neighborhood. I have had 3 beloved dogs of my own even nursing one from just three weeks old! Over the past year, I've had the incredible opportunity to foster seven adorable pups, successfully finding loving homes for each of them! I am currently working part time on weekends so I have more than enough time to play with your pups! Available everyday & accept last minute requests!! I live in a dog friendly apartment with a court yard where your dog can potty. I am very active and love to go on walks and runs with the dogs I care for! I have my own supplies such as toys, blankets, bed, and crate!

Jill came through for me when another sitter backed out which I was extremely grateful for. I know my puppy felt safe there because he wanted to go back into her house when we were leaving. She updated me throughout the day with pictures and texts as to how and what he was doing.

About: passion and love for pets and pet safety certified + CPR / First Aid certified!! I have started my official journey of pet care and grooming 4 years ago! What began as just dog walking and drop ins, turned into my full time job in dog grooming and walking. My neighborhood and friends have relied on me to care for the pups and raved in the reviews to keep on coming back. My absolute favorite part of my job is the moment a dog is relaxed enough to fall sleep during the groom. As well as being able to play with my fur client then do a make over! My favorite grooms are seniors. Currently I work mainly in grooming. Pampering pups with bubble baths and a fresh haircuts/make overs. Leaving me plenty of time to care for your pup with a drop in or walk in the early morning or just in time for that evening walk! I’m also available for weekend boardings! I have a spacious fenced in yard to let your pup use the bathroom as often as needed or some well deserved play times! I have 1 friendly and playful female dog to keep your fur baby company and entertained. I can easily crate any dog or provide a quiet space when/if relief is needed.

About: I genuinely really enjoy spending time with dogs, being outdoors and exercising - running/jogging/hiking- with them, and having down time so they are not alone in your travels. I currently work a 9-5 with flexibility to be remote some days. I am happy to shift my daily routine to accommodate overnight stays and chances for the dog to get out of the house. I have been obsessed and taking care of dogs for as long as I can recall. I am willing to meet them where they feel most comfortable, and create as much routine continuity as possible.

Triba was professional and communicative with us, and very warm and kind with our senior dog. Drop off and pickup were effortless. Our pup didn’t want to leave at the end of his stay— always a good sign! We would book again without hesitation.
