About: I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. Growing up, I was surrounded by rabbits, cats, dogs, hamsters, and more. Friends and family know me as the go-to person for pet advice and rehoming support. With years of hands-on experience, I’m here to provide your pets with the same love and care I give my own. I’m a stay at home mom which makes me available to care for animals full time, I’m not away from animals for more than a two hour time - but only if we need a store trip. Our home is fully fenced in, the animals will never be outside or alone with my children unattended. We only take animals from one family at a time.

She sent pictures and updates every day, answered every question I had, and created a sense of connection with Meeloo even as I was far away. I can't recommend her enough!”

About: I always thought I grow up to be a dog trainer and even made an obstacle course for my dog at the age of 8. I love all types of dogs and especially high energy pups. I have had a Border Collie, an Aussie, a Labrador and currently have 2 Doberman. We go for several walks through the day and they love to play with other dogs. I work at the fire station for 48 hours on Friday and Saturday. The rest of the week I stay at home and care for my pups, unless I pick up an extra shift. I take the dogs for several walks a day and have a small unfenced yard to let them out on leash. My dogs are crate trained and I have extra crates at my house if your dogs perfers to sleep in a kennel. I also keep a close eye on my dogs because they are known to get into mischief due to their high energy. I keep them busy with mental stimulation toys through out the day so yours will get those also. I also have a separate upstairs area of the house for dogs who want to be away from the energy of the Doberman. But most of all, I am very flexible and can work with you and yours to make it work!


14. Kristen C.

“This was our first time meeting/using Kristen. We met her two days prior and brought our baby with us to meet her pups as well. They got along after a bit of getting to know each other. She took great care of our girl, and would more than likely use her again!”


15. Janet & Saar Z.

“We have used Janet and Saar multiple times and they are great every time! Always send a bunch of photos of our pups. I know they will be happy and safe when we drop them off, they take such amazing care of our two dogs. There is no greater comfort than knowing that.”


16. Erika N.

“Erika was very responsive and sent lots of photos. She took my dogs in last minute and my dogs loved their stay! My dogs have anxiety and she was very accommodating of their needs and treated them like her own. I would definitely book again with her!”


17. Em Z.

“My girls thought it was no big deal that I came back to pick them up, so I guess that says it all. Em and Carl were good with them and gave frequent updates. Recommend”


18. Ashley C.


“Ashley took such good care of our Annie and Lola! We got videos and updates daily. She was on point with communication throughout about pickup and drop off and everything in between. Our pups were so comfortable in her home and definitely didn’t miss us. They looked so happy in all their videos and were very well cared for! We will definitely be using Ashley again :)”


19. Cynthia G.

“Cynthia took Trevor on short notice. Trevor had a hard time adapting from being gone from me and was use to being by me all the time but Cynthia was awesome. They became good friends by the time we picked him up.”


20. Madison P.

“Max enjoyed his stay with her - our first time. I could tell that she really loves dogs, and she let him sleep on the bed with her. I'm very happy with the service, and we'll be rebooking!”
