Donna was very kind. I felt at ease leaving my girl with her. She had other dogs but kept them separated since Molly is a puppy. I would recommend Donna if anyone needs a sitter.

About: I have had pets or been around animals my entire life (including puppies, dogs, kittens, cats, fish, rabbits, and birds) and they have always been considered a part of the family. I love every pet as if they’re my own. Your pets comfort is important to me and I am confident they will feel right at home. I have experience with puppies, as well as senior care. I have also had experience with adopting my own dog with reactive tendencies which has made me hyper aware of the importance of dogs social cues both with animals and people, and reading their body language/boundaries. Safety for all parties involved is always my top priority. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. Walks availability: Anytime Sun-Tues, (Wed-Sat hours fluctuate, will need to discuss exact needs.) Doggy daycare availability: Anytime Sun-Sat (if pick-up/drop-off needed will need to discuss availability in more depth.) Boarding availability: Anytime Sun-Sat (if pick-up/drop-off needed will need to discuss availability in more depth.) Boarding with me offers you peace of mind. With timely communication and updates, you can rest easy knowing your best friend is in good hands while you are away. I do require meet & greets for any new clients to ensure it’s a good fit and safety requirements are met for all. We can discuss what works best for your pet. As long as animal is house broken and properly trained, I am flexible with crate/uncrated visits/boarding. My apartment complex is dog friendly but unfenced so would require on leash walks. Property also includes fenced in dog area, or I am open to dog park runs if that is your preference. If scheduling crated boarding, will need to provide own crate.

We first met Alyssa during a meet and greet with our dog, Molly. Coming from a rescue center with a difficult past, Molly can be a bit challenging. We’ve been showering her with love, and Alyssa immediately connected with her energy. Throughout the day, she kept us updated with messages and photos, which we truly appreciated. Alyssa, thank you! We’re looking forward to Molly staying with you next weekend.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and routines at every stage of life. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve regularly babysat dogs for family members and friends, providing dependable, loving care while they’re away. From daily walks and playtime to feeding schedules and cuddle sessions, I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable in my care. I currently have open availability, which means I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. While my schedule is very flexible, I do ask for advance notice whenever possible so I can plan accordingly and ensure I’m fully prepared to give your pet the best experience. I’m happy to accommodate weekdays, weekends, and extended stays! Your pet’s safety and comfort are super important to me! I offer a calm, loving home where pets are treated just like part of the family. I have one friendly Chihuahua and a curious little ferret who are both used to being around other animals. I always take introductions slowly and supervise to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and set up so pets can relax, play, and feel at ease. You can trust that your pet will get lots of attention, affection, and a safe place to stay while you’re away.

About: You and your pet will both feel like they’re on vacation as they have all of the comforts of home while you relax when you’re away. I have cared for dogs from the early stages of puppyhood and potty training through their later years where they just need a little extra help and lots of extra love. No matter their age, size or breed, I’m here to love your pet almost as much as you do 😉 In addition to a loving environment, I have most pet equipment including play pens, ramps, toys and treats so that your pet can have everything it needs for a comfortable stay. I also carry private insurance coverage so your pet can have the protection it deserves. I have coverage for boarders as well as for walks/drop ins. A copy of my policy can be provided upon request. ** DISCOUNTED RATES FOR DOGS WHO CAN STAY WITH DOGS FROM OTHER FAMILIES. OPENINGS IN JUNE FOR DOG FRIENDLY DOGS ONLY ** My husband and I grew up with dogs and have loved and cared for many over the years including our first doggy child, Molly. She has since crossed the rainbow bridge and although we’re not quite ready yet for a new dog, we’re happy to share our built up puppy love to provide a safe and loving environment while you’re away. At our home, all dogs become part of our family and I will reinforce any behaviors you maintain in your own home. But if your pet is used to couch cuddles they’ll get the same thing here! They’ll have all of the love and comforts of home that cannot be matched by any traditional boarding place, while receiving personal attention as they’re in space where they’ll be the only dog. It’s a change for your dog to go from one home to a new one. However, I find that having a home with no personal pets and either none, or a very limited amount other boarders if your pet enjoys company, helps to ease the transition and get them acclimated quickly. After several years of boarding dogs while I worked from home, I have been able to leave my corporate job and now I get to care for pups full time. When I have a booking, I limit the time I spend outside of my home. Puppies will never be left home alone. Seniors can also be booked for constant care if needed for their health and safety. When the weather is nice, the family and I try to be out as much as possible and will always bring your dog along for the fun! I enjoy getting out for walks several times a day to stretch out my legs after extensive periods behind a desk. If your dog is up for it, then I’m happy to get to bring them on my walks! Even the best boarding facility cannot replicate the safety, cleanliness and care that can be provided in an animal loving home where there will always be a human around day and night to care for your dog and take action immediately should the need arise. My radius for drop ins and walks is set so that all clients are less than 15 minutes from my house. This way, should you be delayed in any way, or notice something while you’re gone, I’m nearby and can easily continue my visits until you return home.

Karol is exceptionally awesome. I have 2 little girls and she took care of them so well. Took them out for multiple walks and to the park to play. Made them feel at home. I really appreciated that. I most certainly will use her again and do recommend giving her a try.

Sarah was amazing with my Dexter! He has anxiety from a dog attack and is skittish - she handled him beautifully and he had an absolute blast! She took great care with grouping dogs together to make sure they played appropriately and also ensured he had downtime to relax. I will absolutely use Sarah again for daycare and walks!
