“Brody just loves going to visit Jennifer! He has stayed with her twice, and each time, Brody seems to become a more confident, independent dog. I fully trust that I am leaving him in capable hands when I drop him off. The home environment that Jennifer provides is unbeatable. I would never send my dog anywhere else!”
“On a scale of 1 to 10, Liz is a 10+ dog boarder/caregiver. It was quite apparent in the photos and videos she sent that my 2 girls felt loved and were very happy. They made new fur friends, having such a fun time playing with Liz's 2 oh so sweet pups. I would highly recommend Liz if you need dog boarding services.”
“Ethel Mae’s proxy parents, Jessica and Charles, continue to make her feel right at home. And I mean RIGHT at home! They both indulge her. We are so happy to have found them.”
“Our pup had so much fun staying with Charles! She had lots of attention, cuddles, and playtime with puppy pals. I love that she wasn't put in a kennel and was allowed to sleep in a home environment.”
“My boy had a great time at Amber's house. He came back happy and tired; definitely got some much needed outside time, socialization, and cuddles. It was easy to coordinate drop-off and pickup, and I received updates and pictures during his stay.”
“Absolutely amazing! Very flexible, understanding, responsive, and professional! I have a crazy work schedule and she responded very quickly met the needs of my schedule and my two crazy fur babies! Definitely recommend her and We will be returning :)”
“Peyton took good care of Kylo while we were traveling. She sent me updates about him time to time along with pictures so I was aware of how Kylo was doing. I highly recommend Peyton for keeping your furry friends while you need. Thank you once again Peyton !”
“Ashley and Brownie were great! I took our puppy to meet Ashley and her apartment was spotless and her dog was gentle and playful. Ashley was very comfortable answering all the questions of a new puppy mom and made me feel that my puppy would be happy in her home! I plan to use her again and would recommend her highly! Thanks, Ashley! Beverly Noffsinger”
“Margaret was wonderful! My dog looked like she was on her own vacation at Margarets house. She would send me pictures of Lucy playing in the yard and what bedding Lucy picked. Lucy loved being at Margarets house. I highly recommend Margaret!”
“Another excellent experience for my 12-year-old Aussie and me (i.e., confident piece of mind while I'm traveling). Ellie knows and loves Animals and is flexible and considerate of their owners. Thank you.”
About: I love dogs and have a friendly, 2-year-old yellow Labrador. I work from home, so your dog will always be within my sight. I understand how difficult it can be to board your furry friend, but you won't have to worry when your pet is in my care. I work from home, so your dog will be with me throughout the day. My dog enjoys sleeping in his crate, but if your dog isn't used to crates and prefers to sleep in bed or on the sofa, they will have the freedom to do so. I have a fenced yard and enjoy a daily game of ball with my dog, Milo, every morning. We also take walks together each day. Milo is great with other dogs and acts as a wonderful mentor. If I ever need to step away from home, I have an extra crate available to securely accommodate your dog if necessary. Rest assured, your dog will always be housed inside my temperature-regulated, loving home, not in an outdoor kennel or garage.
“We can’t say enough about Savannah. She was an absolute godsend for our family. After driving for almost 8 hours and arriving at our hotel at 9 PM on a Friday evening, we found out that their pet friendly policy only applied to dogs. That was a major issue for us since we had brought our dog and our cat with us, sending us into an absolute panic. We sent a message to Savannah and not only did she respond immediately, but she brought us out of our panic by telling us to head right over with our sweet girl. During her time watching our Kitterz, she sent us pictures and updates daily, which let us know we left her in good hands. Going above and beyond, she invited us to visit during our vacation since she knew we were missing our girl. We wish there were more than 5 stars to rate her because she was incredible!”
“Alyssa did an amazing job taking care of my dog Claire. She would send me update photos throughout my trip to ease my stress about how Claire was coping with us being gone. The difference between how happy Claire was when we returned proved that Alyssa is an incredible sitter and value compared to local kennels in the area.”
“Randi did an amazing job and was available on short notice. She has a very big yard, took good care of Ace and sent several pictures and communicated frequently with me during Ace’s stay with her.”
“Ryan and Stephanie are wonderful! My Charlie had such a good time! I am sure if he wants to come home! Thank you Ryan and Stephanie for taking care of our ? pup”
“Cameron has a professional setup for your fur babies. I got daily pictures and updates of my 4 fur babies. Will definitely have Cameron take care of my fur babies in the future. Thanks Cameron!”
“Excellent service Alexis and her husband are heaven sent. They are very responsive and took both my pups at the last minute. I couldn't see leaving my babies with anyone else.....know that you both are our pups official caregivers when we are away. They showed both my fur babies who have different personalities so much love. Our poodle was afraid to walk off the porch before we took her to you and as soon as she got home she just ran and ran all around the yard. It may be minor to some but it means a lot to my children and I. Thank you again and we will see you soon!❤”
