“Julie was so kind and loved on our pups so well. Her home environment was very clean and safe. She was flexible and communicated well. I would definitely use her again for my penny and lucy!”
“Teigan was awesome with our girl Faye! She watches other dogs so Faye was able to make some friends and enjoy her time while we were out of town. She came back happy and ready for a nap after her fun filled weekend. We don't have any complaints, Teigan replied when we checked on Faye and sent a few pictures as well! Her set up was great with a lot of room for Faye to run around. I definitely recommend her. 😊”
“We were very happy to meet Steven and Karin. This was our first time boarding Ted with them, and Steven offered a Meet & Greet to make sure we were a good fit. From the start, they were extremely friendly and made Ted feel comfortable. They also have a very sweet, well-behaved dog who got along great with Ted. Ted came home happy and completely exhausted, which is rare for him! We highly recommend them and will definitely book again.”
“Our dogs had a wonderful vacation with Lauren! Our minds was at ease knowing that our fur babies was in such great hands during our honeymoon. Thank you so very much! Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Donovan was very accommodating and understanding with our pit bull! His place was very clean and seemed like a safe place for our boy. We were even running behind on our pickup time and he was very understanding and flexible. As well as sending us photo updates. Will be using him again in the future :)”
“She was so nice and friendly. I hate leaving my dog anywhere and I’m so attached, she really helped with the walking out the door problem, she immediately noticed we had a hard time leaving each other and crouched down to distract her so she didn’t watch me leave and I didn’t have to watch her give me the look of abandonment. When we picked her up, she was happy and energetic. I believe she had a great time with Aisha. Will definitely continue to use her as a doggie sitter for every time I need one. Thank you so much for taking care of my baybay. ?”
“I am so appreciative of Crystal and her family! They went above and beyond to care for my whiny little dachshund with anxiety. He is an intense little guy who needs regular company. I received updates and pictures and he seemed so genuinely loved, well-cared for, and spoiled. I will absolutely book another sitting with Crystal when I need someone to watch him.”
“Chris did a great job taking care of our dog, Jefferson, and was available over Memorial weekend, which was so helpful. Throughout the 2-week stay, he provided pictures and updates to us. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for someone to take care of (and love) their pet.”
“He’s always excited to go there and he always comes back just the way we left him. She’s sent pictures with him hanging out with other dogs in the back yard. We use her as often as we can. We actually drive 25 mins out of our way for Gus to stay.”
About: Your pets are your family and it’s no different when they are with me! I am a stay at home mom so I’m always available to give your pets cuddles or take them out on walks. I have experience with dogs who take medications, have seizures, need special diets and can handle other needs as they arise. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works from home so we are always available to take care of your pet with walks or snuggles! Our yard has a fenced in section for pets and our neighborhood is a great environment for safe walks. We have 2 toddlers who love to run around and play so your pet will be very well entertained. We also have 2 lazy dogs and 1 sleepy cat so if your fur baby prefers naps and cuddles they will fit right in over here as well!
“Loki loved his stay with Stephanie and her family. Her girls took great care of him. He got lots of playtime and walks. Stephanie was great at communicating. We would definitely have him stay with them again in the future.”
“Shania is amazing I needed a sitter on a very short notice and she was willing to work with me and take my puppy last minute she sent me updates and pics so I knew he was doing good and even let him cuddle during the night 5/5 stars would definitely recommend her!”
“Ashley took great care of my two dogs at her kennel. The only thing I would mention is that I had assumed she was watching them at her house when I booked her, but it was really where she is a groomer, so the dogs were kept in a kennel except during play & potty breaks. There were several other animals there. You could tell Ashley loves animals & they did great in her care.”
“Layne watched my Tyler (cat) for several evenings and provided daily pictures/updates on how he was doing!! She was friendly and professional and made the entire process very easy. Glad Tyler had a good place to stay!!! I would definitely recommend.”
About: My oldest is Bubba 16yr 100 lb black lab mix and my youngest Harley 1yr 65 lb lab shepherd mix. Ive taken care of dogs/cats for over 20 years. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is very flexible for boarding, daycare or just to drop in to make sure your furries are exercised and fed. I have a fenced in yard and a playful little girl doggo who will make sure your pet gets the exercise and attention they need. My dogs are spoiled with walks, playing frisbee, daily brushes, homemade food and treats. There is nothing better than getting to spend time with them everyday and would welcome the opportunity to look after your pup. Feel free to ask Bubba and Harley on how well they are treated!
“Nina was amazing. Tucker had a lot of fun with her. I’m sure he enjoyed a lot playing with her big and sweet dogs. She sent me pictures and was very responsive. And besides that he got home worn out, meaning that he burned a lot of his energy.”
“Jackie is hands down the best sitter we’ve had on Rover in over five years! She’s quick to communicate, great with animals, and a kind person. She’s also been flexible and easy to work with when I was running late. I could not recommend any more highly.”

I am so thankful for her. We never have left our animals with another person. She reassured us that everything would be fine and sent pictures daily. We had a last-minute medical problem with one of our dogs and she was able to give the medication and shampoos that were required. This was also during Thanksgiving week I feel extremely confident in what she does and would refer her to anyone and everyone. My Pomeranians are real barkers. They have not been around too many dogs or any cats. I am so thankful that they were to adjust and socialize. What a great help.! Thanks again for all your hard work. We really really appreciate it.! She is the best.
