1. Karen P.

“Karen P was great! She provided a meet and greet opportunity beforehand to make sure our dogs were compatible with each other. She was very flexible and accommodating in a last minute drop off time as well as an earlier pick up time. I will definitely be using her in the future.”


2. Abigail L.


“This was Mollys second visit with Abigail and Victor! I can’t express to everyone out there how amazing they are! Our girl Molly always has the best time when she visits, and we know how well loved and cared for she is! ❤️ The only place we will consider sending our girl!”

4. Madelyn M.

“Stella loved being with Madelyn and her family and she was always down to help out and go out of her way for me! Highly recommend”


5. Leidy A.


“Leidy and Kyle watched our 12 year old boy. I was very stressed because we had never left him with anyone before. They made the process and experience wonderful. Drop off and pick up were excellent and the communication before and during exceeded my expectations. They responded quickly and sent photos of my couch potato throughout the day. One thing I loved about the experience is you could tell they really love dogs. Their home was clean and Tyler rated their couch 5 out of 5 paws. :) I would absolutely leave our dog with them again and would recommend them to others. 5 stars!!!!!”

About: I’ve had dogs on and off my entire life. For the last 12 years our family has rescued/adopted 11 dogs. I have kept family and friends' dogs while they vacation as well as done drop ins at their home for walks, feeding and cuddling. I have also taken care of goats and chickens. I will treat your pets how I would want someone to treat mine. I am comfortable around all size and breeds of dogs and cats as well as goats and chickens. I am self employed and have a very flexible schedule. I am available almost any time, including nights and weekends. Most schedules can be accommodated. I have 5 acres which about 1/2 acre is fenced in with 6-foot fencing. I can snuggle your dog on the couch or crate them if they feel more comfortable like that. I have my own personal dogs but keep them separate from other people's pets. If you leave directions of what your pets routine in your home is like I can provide for them in that manner.

“Brook is amazing! She provided exceptional care, love, and attention to our dog. We returned to a happy, healthy pet. Highly recommended for dog sitting!”


15. Christopher G.
About: I am a Canine Handler of 4 years where I have provided training, boarding, grooming, and medical services such as CPR to canines and there owners. I have entered into Prisons, Jails, Schools, Busch Gardens, Marathons, NFL Games, concerts, etc to conduct Narcotic and Explosive detection for the communities! I would love to open our home and knowledge to you and your fur family! We live in Callao, Virginia and love to travel! I have taken my canines to Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, D.C., Pennsylvania, Nee Jersey, New York and Texas for work purposes! Pet Care has a special slot of all the time, 24/7 routine, it is the most valuable part of the animal industry we are in. Pets are family members that don’t have the voice to communicate but the brain that will remember everything from trauma to the love. Pets are protected more than one way around me.


16. Casey B.
About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes! I have a little dachshund named steel who is a couch potato with the occasional zoomies as well as a 6 year old son who loves anything furry and sweet. I work 8:30-3 but only 7 mins from home and can pop in on my lunch if needed. Otherwise home and ready to play with fur babies I do not have a fenced in yard but do have space where they could get their zoomies out. Welcome to be on furniture and even better if they snuggle my kiddo in bed.


17. Katie B.

“Katie was amazing! She was communicative and sent pictures of Lewis to show he had settled in great! I would highly recommend Katie.”


18. Chris C.
About: I’m a dog owner, a mother, and a grandmother and I love playing with and caring for dogs in my home. My dogs and I love to have visitors come over and play with us. We always treat them like family while they are with us and make sure they have fun and are well taken care of! They have unlimited outside play time and can make themselves at home inside the house also. I have plenty of experience in all aspects of dog care and would welcome the opportunity to help in taking care of your dog! I’m currently not working so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. Doggie day care and boarding available any day or night. I have plenty of yard space, a great neighborhood for taking walks, and plenty of room inside the house for the dogs to hang out and play.


19. Betsy B.
About: I have been caring for animals my entire life. I do work a full time job. However after work my full attention will be on your fur baby. This may include walking around the neighborhood, play time in the house or during the warm season I live on the water. So if your dog enjoys swimming relaxing on the beach. I believe we are the perfect match! I do work a full time job from 8-4:30, Monday through Friday. However my evenings will be full of your fur baby. Between playtime or relaxing on the couch I am here for your pet! I don’t have a fenced in yard but I live on two acres about mile from the road. I will always ensure your pets safety is my top priority!

About: Hi there , I just have always had a love for animals , I am currently a full time student on my way to become a veterinary technician as well as working full time in a vet clinic. I am open to watching your pets if they get along well with other dogs/small kids, with my work schedule it would be best to watch at my own home but depending on the situation and distance I could possibly stay at yours as well ! I have 3 days off during the week so depending on the scenario I can always bring your pets to work with me as well so they are not alone. I already work with animals as my job and love being around them. I have a good experience and it’s really just part of my daily routine Just whatever is instructed for me to do , I want to make sure everything is fear free and I am able to bond with the pet and help with their nerves and just make sure they have a good time
