“Tanisha is wonderful. This is the first time I've left my fur baby with anyone. Tanisha put my mind at ease and answered questions I didn't know to ask. She texted me with updates every day and sent photos. Her communication was excellent. I will definitely work with her again.”
“Aimee was great with our Toast. He was extremely comfortable and at home with her. Aimee was very attentive to him and sent daily updates with pictures which is very important to us as dog parents, she was also extremely responsive and caring. She is definitely our preferred sitter and we are so happy to have found her.”
“My pups enjoyed their weekend with Brittany ! She’s very responsive & made them feel welcome like her own . I’ll definitely be using her in the future”
“Thank you to Sherree and her family for all their loving care. They did a wonderful job taking care of my emotional pup who was upset we left her for the holidays. Thanks and we are forever grateful.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our dogs while we were away! LeKesha was incredibly kind, professional, and clearly has a natural way with animals. Our pups took to them right away, and it was such a relief knowing they were in loving, capable hands. We received regular updates, photos, and even a few videos that made us smile every day. It was obvious our dogs were happy, relaxed, and getting plenty of love and attention. Highly, highly recommended for anyone looking for trustworthy and genuinely caring pet care!”
“I was a little worried because she only had one review before I booked. I am beyond impressed with her. She was a very good communicator, sent lots of pics, took him on walks and made him feel at home. We were gone for a long time over the holidays too. I’ll definitely use Janet again!”
“Boarding my two boys with Emily was the best decision we could make for our trip! My two boys, Aris and Pepo, had the time of their lives and I left the island with a lot of peace of mind. Emily sent me multiple updates per day and I knew they were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. They’ll definitely stay with her again during my next trip!”
“Shanique was awesome. She did a wonderful job making my little one so comfortable and part of her family for the weekend. She sent many pictures of Phoenix having so much fun! I can tell he loves her too. Shanique is a wonderful and I am so glad I chose her to keep Phoenix. I definitely trust her and will use her again and again!”
“I was nervous because of my dog has never been away from me but I was comfortable with Mrs. Karen. Very sweet lady and trustworthy with my baby. 💙”
“Kyle is an amazing and dedicated sitter! He knows exactly how to care for and interact with our Rottweiler. So much so that when our dog was being dropped off, he tried to turn around and follow Kyle! Highly recommended!”
“Very loving and friendly! I was able to enjoy my trip knowing my dog was in wonderful hands, we enjoyed every picture you sent! I will definitely book again.”
“I give them 100 stars they are the best they’re good with dogs. My dog is great with other dogs. They’re right around the corner from my house. They’re the best I will be coming back and I also asked them if my dog allowed to come back and they told me yes ,Great communication great people”
“Awesome! This about sums up my experience with Dominique. She kept our two for babies and they came home happier than they left. She is a natural with animals and has excellent communication skills. We have used Rover before and she is the third person we have used and all of them were good but Dominique is the best!”
“Krystal & Corey took great care of Lacy. I saw her coming back from a walk and she didn’t want it to end. I thank them for walking her before I picked her up. They were even considerate about me being late for pickup.”
“A key test of a sitter is how a dog responds to the second visit. Luna sat patiently at Krystene's front door while I walked back to get her things for the visit...once the door was open, Luna trotted in, found her spot and laid down. That's a dog approved sitter.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and can’t remember a time when I didn’t have at least one by my side. With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—including my own two—I offer more than just a place to stay; I provide a safe, loving home away from home. What sets me apart is my deep understanding of canine behavior, patience with puppies, and gentle care for senior dogs. Whether it’s helping with basic training or giving extra attention to older pups who need a slower pace, I tailor my care to fit each dog’s unique needs. You can trust that your dog will be treated like family here. I currently work full time. However, I work from home 3 days a week and I am in office 2 days a week. Dogs get lots of attention. I have a large unfenced yard with two friendly dogs to keep yours company. I take dogs out on leashes for walks and can crate dogs if needed.
“Bingo had an amazing time with Sheavel. It was a last minute booking due to a family emergency and everything worked out perfectly. 10 out of 10.”
“Loleatha was very caring & loving to our babies. I would definitely recommend her to all my friends & we will use her again for any upcome events that we might have..”
“Jewel was such an awesome sitter. She was very welcoming, personable, and communicative. It was such a change for Nori to switch sitters but Jewel and her family were very good with Nori. Will definitely use her again.”
“Patrice was *beyond* wonderful! Not only did she take my insulin dependent senior dog at the last minute, she gave me daily feedback about my baby's wellbeing and sent pictures/videos. That is a wonderful benefit and relief. I wod DEFINITELY recommend Patrice to anyone who wants their baby to be taken well care of. Thanks a million!”
