Anna was great with our two beagles! They adored her and got lots of cuddles. Anna was very diligent in asking any questions to ensure she was giving them the best care and sending a lot of pictures.

I can’t say enough good things about Robbyn. Jackson immediately connected with her, and he was more relaxed than I’ve ever seen him for a high energy puppy. She kept the place spotless, communicated regularly, and sent plenty of photos so I always knew he was doing well. I’m truly grateful for the care she provided, and I will definitely be booking with her again.

Whitney house sat and cared for our two labs (one who is young and FULL of energy!) during the Christmas break. She sent regular updates and pictures which we really appreciated! We will definitely reach out to her again and recommend her to friends and family in need of a pet sitter.

I would ABSOLUTELY book Armonee again! I was very apprehensive about leaving my dog with someone for the first time, but Armonee kept me updated throughout the entire week and sent photos/videos. Mila was well cared for, and that made it easier for me to enjoy my trip.

Alexa was absolutely wonderful! She took the time to meet our babies beforehand since they can be a little extra at times, and they immediately felt comfortable and at ease with her. She kept us updated with several pictures, and her communication throughout was excellent. Most importantly, our babies were truly loved and cared for while we were away. We also just moved into a new home from out of state, and many of our belongings — including our couch — still haven’t arrived. We always want our sitters to feel as comfortable as possible, and Alexa was incredibly understanding and kind about our situation, which gave me such peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend Alexa, and I know our babies will be in great hands when we book with her again!

Just got home from our trip and we couldn't be more pleased with DeHaven, who stayed at our house for a week. Daily notifications and pictures were supplied, all positive reviews! DeHaven did lots of dog walks and ball throwing for our Lab, and kitty cuddles with our kitty. They made us feel confident our babies were in good hands. House was clean and organized. Definitely want the DeHaven/Ashlee team again!

Emma was FANTASTIC with our two little guys (dogs), one is a Maltese and the other is a mini Golden Doodle. Usually, they do not eat at least the first day and usually not for two or three days if we leave them with someone, which has always been people our dogs know and love. Not so with Emma; she was able to get them to eat their first meal and every meal thereafter. You could tell by the pictures, etc. that they were happy and enjoying her in our home, where she stayed with them for a week . . . in our home overnight that is. When we returned, of course, our pups were very happy to see us (almost overwhelmingly so) but it was a true telltale sign when they ran to the bedroom door where Emma stayed, and they started to whimper when they realized she wasn't there. We will definitely be using Emma again in the future. I recommend her without hesitation or reservation to watch your pets/family.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very young. I love all breeds of dogs and I also have trained 2 of my own dogs for obedience and hunting competitions. I enjoy every minute I get to spend with these awesome pets! I am currently going to school part-time to be a nurse so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! Currently my school is online for the summer so your pet will have my full attention!! My home has a 1 acre backyard so plenty of space for your pet to play if you want them to come to my house! I have 2 friendly labs that would love to make friends or if your pet likes one-on-one time, my dogs can stay home and I can come to you!
