“Dian was the best- warm, welcoming, and very interested in learning about my dog so that she could make his stay comfortable. He usually won’t eat when he’s away from me, but he quickly adjusted and consumed his usual meals. I will definitely be using Dian again!”


“I was so comfortable leaving Chance in the care of Marissa and her family. She communicated with me through our entire stay and sent beautiful pictures of Chance adjusting (and loving) his vacay family. A special thank you to her son, who romped with him daily in the Ohio snow. We are so lucky to have them close as we travel a lot.”


About: I have had dogs my entire life. We currently have two sweet cavaliers, age 12 and 8.5 who love to be with other dogs. I was an agility competitor for several years. My husband and I are retired, and home most of the time unless we are traveling. We often care for friends' pets and are happy to provide references. We have a doggy door to a safe fenced area for potty breaks and outdoor play. Your dogs will bed part of our family while with us.

“Katelyn and Andria were fantastic! They kept me updated on my pup throughout our trip and sent lots of pictures. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them!!”


“Michele saved my life, I always take my dog everywhere but for obvious reasons I couldn't go to Cedar Point. I contacted her and she quickly said yes. She walked her and took care of her until the afternoon. She sent me photos so I could check her status with my dog. Highly recommended. Thanks Michele.”


“Asia is amazing, we will be rebooking with her for our next trip! She sent thousands of pictures everyday and kiwi looked very happy in all of them.”


“Danielle was great! She took our dog on short notice so that our family could go to Cedar Point while passing through. Her family loved her up and updated us by text and pics.”


“Suzanne was very responsive to messages and kept us updated during the stay. She has a great personality in person as well.”



“Sharon was so sweet with my sassy old doggo when he was out of his element. Her patience and kindness with Gary were very much appreciated! ???”


“Bridget was so easy to coordinate with and did a fantastic job taking care of Watson for a 3 night visit. Really great communication before and during the stay. Her dogs were super friendly and welcoming of Watson in their space right from the start which gave me good peace of mind while he was there. He literally didn’t want to leave when I picked him up so I think that says it all :) Thanks Bridget!”


“Erin did a great job watching my 13 year old little old dog at her house while I was on vacation. I have my vacation booked for next year and I would definitely use her again for that! Her whole family absolutely adored him and took such great care of him. Thank you so much!!”



“Jenn made leaving my puppy for the first time 100% easy and comfortable! To find someone online and not know anyone in my area was very nerve wracking for me to leave my puppy. I was gone for two nights and Jenn sent me pictures and updates of all the fun Hazel was having with the many different dogs boarding with her. Hazel came home happy and exhausted because she was spoiled and played inside and outside. I wouldn't trust anyone else with Hazel, and she will absolutely be back for both overnight boarding and daycare!”


About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember—most of them high-energy Beagles—so I know firsthand how much love, patience, and consistency pets need. What sets me apart is not just my experience, but my genuine connection with animals and understanding of their unique personalities and needs. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs needing medication and a gentler routine. I’m confident with leash training, reinforcing basic commands, administering meds, and offering plenty of structured playtime and affection. Whether your pet needs a jogging buddy, a calm companion, or someone to stick to their routine like clockwork, I’m here to help them feel safe, loved, and right at home! My primary job is remote, which allows me the flexibility to work from anywhere. However, I do currently work part-time on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am typically home by 1:00 PM. In addition, my weekends are completely open and available. I live in a peaceful, low-traffic area with over 20 acres of walking paths and wooded trails—perfect for outdoor exercise and exploration. I also have a wraparound porch with multiple leads for safe and relaxed outdoor time. I have two friendly, playful female dogs of my own, and I’m experienced in managing multi-dog environments. If needed, I’m fully capable of crating or separating pets to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. I’m committed to providing attentive, personalized care and any support your friend may need to feel right at home!

“Great host took great care of my dog and kept me updated if I head that way again def will use again”


“Allison was great for our Dachshund. She took her on a weeks notice and Molly stayed with her for a few days while we were traveling out of state. She kept in touch with us by text and sent us photos daily. Definitely will use Allison again and highly recommend her. Thank you again Allison!”


About: I’ve been raised with dogs as well as cats, in order to teach me responsibility, my grandparents taught me to look after and care for the dogs we had. My friends as well as family members have reached out when they were going out of town because they trust me to care and love their furry member of the family while they couldn’t. I’m currently available any day, full time! I’ll have all the time in the world to love and care for your pups! I can do boarding on the weekends as well as specific days of the week! I have a fenced yard, as well as a clean space. My parents are also dog lovers so not only would your pups get love from me but as well as them. I have a backyard with space for a pupper to run around and a gate so that they cannot venture too far!
