“Vivi was amazing with my girl! It was a last minute booking due to medical reasons and Vivi worked it out. I recorded pictures and updates, which were greatly appreciated.”
“Stella looks forward to her stays with Andrew's family and Cosmo. I appreciate their time taking care of Stella when we can't. Peace of mind, for sure. Communication and feedback has been great! We are looking forward to our next stay!”
“Casey was an absolute pleasure. She took amazing care of my corgi taking him on many walks, providing playtime, and cuddles. My corgi had an absolute BLAST and came home so happy. She provided me with multiple daily pictures and updates. I will be booking with Casey again!”
“Kathryn is very loving and treated my boys as her own. They loved going to their own special “doggie camp” while I was away. Kathryn sent pics and kept me informed through the week. Great experience!”
“Shelby was the best! This was the first time my dog would be staying with someone that wasn’t family or friends. Shelby eased my fear by sending multiple updates, photos and even a video. Thank you again Shelby!!”
“Tania was awesome. She sent me pics of Jazz enjoying herself. My dog never eats when she’s at the kennel and she ate there right away. I could tell my girl was very well treated! I will definitely use Tania when I’m in town.”
“Ann took excellent care of my dog, Max! She ensured that he got plenty of playtime, and sent me plenty of pictures and updates daily. She even surprised me by giving him a good bath! She also kept him an extra night when I got stranded at the airport. She certainly has a passion for caring for dogs.”
“Can't rave enough about this Rover. Pups are always so well taken care of! Truly their home away from home with the added benefit of furry buddies to play with. Cheyenne is super flexible willing to work with your needs, communicates promptly, and handles all aspects of the pups. Highly recommend.”
“Jessica took fantastic care of my girl - I was able to leave knowing she was in good hands and getting all the love and care she needed! So grateful to her whole family for caring for my baby. ?”
“Sandra was a wonderful sitter for our German Shepherd. Pictures and videos and updates everyday, and our dog—who’s usually anxious when in a new place—took to her right away. We’re very picky about pet sitters, but I have no qualms about using Sandra again, and I plan to.”
“Elena was amazing with our fur babies. She sent tons of sweet pictures and kept us updated on our girls while they were in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would rebook her for our next vacation.”
“Jason and his sweet family took care of our golden retriever as if she were their own. We were so grateful to have them take her on walks, take pictures, and let her play with their pup. Thank you, Jason! We'll be back!”
“Oh my gosh! What a wonderful dog sitter. Kailey was truly awesome when she cared for my two pups. It was obvious they were well taken cared of while I was gone. So much so they didn't seem at all glad to see me. And why? Because they had a beautiful energetic greyhound (Rocket) and Kailey to play with in the backyard. They had walks every day and healthy treats. They watched movies while sitting on her lap and on the couch beside her - all of them including Rocket. My bigger dog usually doesn't get along with other dogs but Kailey somehow managed to get them all to be friends and have fun together. She kept me posted while I was on my trip as to how the dogs were doing and sent me a picture of them. And Kailey herself is a real sweetheart. Warm, friendly, great sense of humor and young with the energy needed to keep up with the dogs. Her house is cozy, comfortable and dog friendly. I am extremely happy for the care my pups received while with her and I will be taking them back to Kailey's Getaway whenever I next need to leave town. I highly recommend this host!!”
“She saved by taking a very late booking due to a previous cancellation. Even went so far as to meet us somewhere as we were towing a huge camper. Would not hesitate to use again.”
About: Observing and addressing subtle changes in a dog's behavior. Providing mentally stimulating activities like playtime, puzzle feeders, and appropriate socialization opportunities. Being flexible with scheduling and accommodating special requests. Promptly responding to inquiries, addressing concerns, and building a positive relationship with clients.

About: I have had experience with caring for animals my whole life. I have experience training puppies and older dogs as well. I am well experienced with senior dogs! I also have experience in grooming/bathing different breeds of dog, if that is something you would be interested in. I am experienced with cats, horses, guinea pigs and a variety of reptiles. I have volunteered at my local animal shelter, caring for several cats and dogs. I have also completed veterinary science/ animal science classes to learn more about animals in general. Over time I notice that animals sense people, most animals love me and sense that I am a genuine, caring person right off the bat. I don’t have a very busy schedule. I am not employed, so I have a lot of time to care for your fur babies. I am an online student at NKU. So I do all of my school work at home! I have a large fenced in area in the back of my yard. I have large/medium/small kennels if needed for boarding. I will spend a lot of pictures too!
“Karen is absolutely amazing. She treated our precious Sophie like the princess she thinks she is. I knew that Sophie was well taken of, safe and loved when she was with Karen. I will DEFINITELY be using Karen again as a dog sitter. ?❤️?❤️?”
