“Jack and Emily both appeared in happy Murphy photos during another great visit this week- his head resting on them, rolling in the yard, relaxing in his favorite spots in the house, getting petted. Murphy loves his vacation home and we feel lucky he is safe and so well cared- for!”
“Jessie has been so wonderful. I am a first time dog mom leaving my boy with a stranger for the first time. He dealt with my daily messages and made me feel so much more comfortable to be able to just enjoy my vacation! I would recommend Jessie to anyone and everyone. I’m fact I already have :)”
“I'm so grateful that Max was able to stay with Catherine and her family!! This was the first time that he was away from us, and he had so much fun that I don't think be even noticed we were gone! They gave him so much love and exercise and sent us tons of wonderful photos. They are the BEST!”
“They were fantastic with our anxious Dachshund. They gave us regular updates and pictures. They requested that we do a meet and greet before hand, and I'm glad that they did. I feel that doing that made my dog feel more comfortable when her vacation day came. They are great people who live animals, and they did a fantastic job with our dog. Five stars all around.”
“I wasn’t able to make my booking with Ashley due to some unforeseen family circumstances, but I did make sure she was paid for her inconvenience regardless. Lovely person & and I’m sure a great sitter! Hopefully, I will be able to use her services in the future!!”
“Kate did a great job watching our little guy! She kept us posted regularly, with nice photos too. "Buster" came home relaxed and playful, as if he had never left, which is what we look for in a successful boarding stay. Looking forward to next time!”
“I was very happy with the way RB was taken care of by Emma. She took in RB and really made her a part of her family for the week. I worried because she has separation anxiety but the pictures and feedback she sent me during the week made me feel better about leaving her with Emma. I would definitely recommend Emma and use her again if the need arises. I felt RB got the care and attention she needed.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs of every kind since the summer of 2016. Family and friends have come to me to care for their fur babies when needed. If boarding , please note there are 3 children in the home ages 6,7,8 and 2 cats who’s shots are up to date as well ( the Yorkie in my first to photo is my late MJ, the other photos ,are of pups I’ve boarded/have done drop in visits over the last few months ) I currently don’t work right now , so I’m open to most schedules that I’m given .I offer discounts to veterans and/or pet owners with disabilities as well 🙏🏽 30$ for 2 -15 minute walks per day , plus feeding and play time if needed. MESSAGE FOR RATES AND DETAILS Your fur baby is guaranteed love and absolute care 💙🙏🏽 If needed I will walk them or bathe them. If yard is fenced in, I let them out a couple times during the day, feed them at allotted times or when needed. It also depends on the level of care your pet needs
“Amber did a great job taking care of our two pups for a couple of days! They got lots of socializing with the whole family. Her dog and cat got a long very well with our dogs and we got photo and text updates. Would recommend and plan on booking with Amber again!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs both large and small, young and old, for as long as I can remember! I got my first dog when I was 3 years old, and have had a dog by my side ever since! I have dog sat for friends and family members with dogs of all different breeds, backgrounds and ages. My first job as a teenager was at a local dog kennel & vet office where I learned a lot about helping a dog feel safe and comfortable while away from home! We have a dog (35lb 2 y/o golden doodle) who absolutely loves making new friends, and a cat who keeps to herself but gets along well with other animals when she does come out to play. My husband works from home and my work schedule is flexible meaning the pets are not frequently home alone. I have a very flexible work schedule paired with my husband working from home most days of the week to prevent extended time home alone for any pets. We have a dog who loves to make new friends and a cat who is comfortable around dogs but tends to keep to herself. We have a large yard and go outside with the dogs (on leash) to ensure they stay safely in the yard at all times.

“Haley and her fur babies were amazing hosts to my little blind guy Luca. Always sending pictures and updates. Thank you so much for the peace of mind I got while having him stay with you.”
“She treated my dogs like family. They were so comfy when I dropped them off, they weren’t at all worried when I left. She did great giving medication to my older dog too. She lovely to interact with. Would absolutely use her again!”
“Valarie was awesome and Jasper felt like he was at home the entire time. He loved spending time with Valarie and her pups!! She was also super communicative and sent us regular updates (very cute ones). Would highly recommend her 😊”
“Ian and his family watched my golden retriever last minute for a week while I was out of town. They sent daily pictures, and were quick to respond to all my questions. Oakley got along great with their family dog and kids!”
