Michaella was excellent! Having never stayed with someone else before, our dog was quickly very comfortable with Michaella. She sent plenty of photo updates and clearly gave our dog lots of love and attention. We would definitely book Michaella again in the future.

Sheila is amazing!! She kept me updated during the entire stay with Logan. She even picked up and dropped off our dog when I don’t have access to my car. Logan loves to be with her and I would definitely have Sheila watch my dog again!

Andrea was a great host to milo for the weekend. I could tell that he enjoyed staying with her and her husband :) Milo had a medical issue while staying with Andrea and she was helpful and calm through it all. I’m sure Milo would love to stay again!

Ashley and her family were wonderful hosts for our dog, Dudley. He came back from his 4-day stay in great condition. He had good walks and lots of attention. He is a bit idiosyncratic in the way of older dogs, and that did not phase them. We really appreciated their loving care. Plus, Dudley got along excellently with their sweet spaniel, Wally! Ashley kept us well up-dated on his activity, which was reassuring, because it's hard leaving quirky old dogs. We highly recommend Ashley and her family.

Jahaira was amazing. She was extremely attentive to my Guinea pigs. I have the connectable play sets for them to explore outside their play ball, and she sent us daily pictures of the different set ups she would build to allow them to explore. Came home to a completely clean enclosure. Hard to find anyone more willing to spend the time and care for my little piggies. 10/10.

Lorie was so welcoming of my baby into her home! She has a great setup where she is able to separate dogs as needed. I could tell Arkose had a great time playing with her dogs and chilling on the patio! I will board with her again and definitely recommend her!

Claudia was amazing! She is so kind, friendly, and professional. She watched my dog for only one night, but she sent me a bunch of photos and updates. My dog had diarrhea and Claudia immediately let me know and asked if it was alright with me if she gave her some pumpkin. She definitely exceeded my expectations and I would absolutely trust her with my pets again.

About: I have taken care of furry friends of neighbors, friends and family for about 10 years. I currently work at a veterinary clinic and am also studying animal science at Cornell University. Hi! For house sitting: I prefer NOT to stay at your house at night. However, here is my schedule for most of my clients; feed/play/take out around 6-7am, feed/play/take out around 5-6pm, and let them out between 9-10pm again. Although this is the scheduled I follow, I would love to know your schedule with your pets and will try to accommodate them as best as I can! For Boarding: Your pup(s) will join into my family and interact with my two friendly dogs. There is a bell on the door so they can ring it to go out (if trained to do so). I hike almost everyday with my own dogs and typically take any dog that is boarding with me along. My dogs are rarely left alone but when they are, they are crated and I ask that dogs staying with me are also crate trained. All dogs that I board are introduced slowly to my own personal dogs and are closely watched until I feel it is safe for them all to be together. Please let me know if your dog has any type of food/toy aggression before hand so I can accommodate! Drop Off/Pick up is between 6:30-7:30am and 6-8pm the day of. Please reach out with any questions! For drop-ins/house sitting: I am happy to keep your pets on their schedule as best as I can weather that be keeping them in a crate during the day/at night or letting them roam free in the house, ect. I am willing to do anything that keeps your pets happy and stress free while you are away including walks, hikes, playing fetch, or just hanging out on the couch! PLEASE READ THE SCHEDULE THAT I FOLLOW IN THE TYPICAL DAY SECTION! For Boarding: I have two of my own dogs that are friendly so your dog will just become a part of my small pack while you are away. I hike almost everyday with my own dogs and typically take any dog that is boarding with me along. My dogs are rarely left alone but when they are, they are crated and I ask that dogs staying with me are also crate trained. All dogs that I board are introduced slowly to my own personal dogs and are closely watched until I feel it is safe for them all to be together. Please let me know if your dog has any type of food/toy aggression before hand so I can accommodate!

Isabel is the consummate dog lover and dogs are super comfortable around them. Isabel enjoys taking our dogs on long walks, playing tug of war with the dog toys, and cuddling up for a nap. The dogs are always super excited to see them. Isabel is great with our high energy Weimereiner and our anxious Bicuon Frisée. I would highly recommend.

About: I grew up on a farm, and I've taken care of animals ever since I can remember. I'm comfortable with horses, dogs, cats, cows, goats, chickens, and more. I've also served as a foster care provider since I was 15 when I lived with my parents. I also volunteered at a local rescue shelter and worked as a doggy day care counselor at Camp Bow Wow. I would have pets of my own right now if it weren't for the cost of care and the way I move around frequently. I'm currently a full-time student, but I still have plenty of time to care for your pups! My schedule is very flexible as I do most work online and from home. I live in a spacious apartment (in a renovated house), but I have a (very) pet-friendly landlord, a balcony, and a fenced yard. Not to mention several nearby parks!
