I loved everything about this stay! Their home and community are beautiful, and they were so kind to take Arley in on such short notice. He felt right at home, and I could tell he was well cared for. Definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

I cannot say enough about my experience with Beth and her husband and their home, little dog and cats. I felt so at ease around their kindness. The best part is that my dog was more vibrant and playful after two days with them. They were keen to follow instructions and just be a loving presence for Zushi. That’s what we needed most! I will be booking with them again. And highly recommend them.

Amy and her daughters were so great with our energetic puppy!! She got all her energy out in the few hours they were together. They went to the dog park, and let our puppy go to town in their pool (which is her happy place)!! Will 200% be scheduling a bunch more play dates!

About: As a veterinary technician with hands on experience in pet sitting and grooming, I bring a well rounded background to caring for your pets. I understand not only the medical and behavioral needs of animals, but also the importance of keeping them comfortable, clean, and happy. Whether it’s administering medications, providing gentle grooming, or offering dependable sitting services, I treat every pet as if they were my own ensuring they’re safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, and pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. With my background in veterinary medicine, along with experience in grooming and sitting, caring for animals comes naturally to me. I build my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for, whether that means daily walks, playtime, feedings, or administering medications. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate each pet’s routine, ensuring they feel secure, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am Recover CPR BSL/ASL certified, and safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. With my background in veterinary medicine, I pay close attention to details like secure leashes, pet-proof spaces, and monitoring for any signs of stress or discomfort. In your home, I follow your pet’s routines closely to keep them comfortable and maintain their normal environment. In my own home, I provide a calm, safe, and supervised space where pets can relax and feel at ease. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved, secure, and well cared for, so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I've had dogs most of my life. Am familiar with obedience training and have cared for several seniors. When I lived up north, I boarded dogs in my home. I am a freelance editor, so my work is transportable. Busiest times are generally in early evening but sometimes in the day. I am almost never way for more than 4 hrs. I have a dog door from the lanai that leads out into a fenced dog yard at the side of the house. I can also crate as needed or set up doggie playpen.

Karen is a very loving and positive person. She was wonderful with my puppy. Finn is a seven month old Alaskan Malamute and very skittish. He was not exactly the right fit for the dogs in her home, but she worked very hard with him to make him as comfortable as possible. It was his first time being in a home with other dogs that he did not know. She was patient and kind and he was anxious, but very happy when I picked him up. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who asked me.
