“Larissa and her family were amazing with Denver and Blu! They always looked so happy in the pictures and videos she would send and I love that she has a dog of her own that is super friendly! Already booked with her again! (:”
“Marcia was wonderful...great and quick communication, let us know how Patches was doing throughout the day and sent us pictures. We would definitely use Marcia again!”
“Abigail and her family have been amazing with my 2 girls! She is super communicative and made sure she knew everything about the girls before the start date. The girls always come home happy and tired, and Abigail always sends pictures of all the fun they have. Highly recommend!”
“Our doggie is a repeat visitor here! We never worry about him while we are away. He receives so much attention and love here! The sitter sends frequent photo uodates on how our pet is doing. Highly recommend this sitter!”
“I wish I could give 10 stars! This is definitely the best boarding experience we've ever had. They provided her so much outside and play time. Emma is usually so anxious in new places, but she really came out of her shell here. She got along great with their dog. You can tell Aanchal really loves dogs and treats each one with care. She even came back with a cute bandana!”
“If I could give Danielle and her husband 10 stars I would. Our dog hurt his leg two days before we were to leave on a eight day cruise and she took great care of him, giving him his medicine and making sure he didn’t jump, go down/up stairs or play too hard which anyone knows is hard in itself with a dog. She offered to take him to the vet if he got worse and kept us updated every day. They are amazing honestly and we definitely will be using her going forward. If you are looking for a groomer she has her own grooming business as well called Hugz-N-Kisses Pet Spa definitely check her out!!!”
“Chasity was amazing! She was great about responding in a timely manner and sending me updates about how my dogs were doing. I could tell that they were in good hands upon dropping them off and I was able to enjoy my vacation without any worries about my dogs. I plan to re-use Chasity’s dog sitting services in the future!”
“Lanette was very responsive and was able to take my pup during last minute changes! Sydney came home tuckered out so I’m know she had a great and very active time with friends ☺️”
“Home away from home! Thanks to Kylene for providing such loving and comfortable care for our guy while we were out of town. Not only did we stay in close contact, but Kylene accommodated our drop off and pick up needs. Our guy needs meds and gentle handling and Kylene ensured he was well cared for. No doubt we will rely on Kylene’s services in the future! Love her!”
“Reagan took very good care of our girls. She sent pictures and updates and responded pretty quickly when I asked about them. Her home is non smoking so I didn’t have to worry about taking them to the groomer right away. Would definitely have her dog sit for us again if she’ll have us. lol. Thank you Reagan!”
About: I am a USMC vet and I’ve been around pets basically all my life and found a passion for it. I have over 4 years with working with pets in a professional field. I currently have open availability during the week and weekend. I’m available any time during the day and any last minute requests for all pets. I have a fenced In large yard so pets are able to roam free and have plenty of play time throughout the day and stay.
“Sarah was fantastic! We definitely felt great leaving our bulldogs her. We received pictures and updates on the babies the entire time. Sarah was very gentle and loving with our animals! We would definitely use her again!!”
“Was nervous to leave our 9-week-old kitten in a new place for a weekend, but he did great with Jordan! She sent us videos of him getting settled and was super quick to respond to texts before and during our kitten's stay. Definitely recommend!”

We can’t say enough good things about Kristen! Our golden retriever was incredibly anxious about being away from us, but Kristen handled everything with so much patience, kindness, and professionalism. She took the time to earn his trust, never rushed the process, and always kept us updated. It was clear she truly cared about his well-being and comfort. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We are so grateful to have found Kristen and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone! She’s truly a gem!
