“I was so nervous leaving my dog with anyone - but immediately after meeting Brittany, I knew that my dog was going to be in great hands. Brittany and her family communicated with me throughout the stay with pictures daily and handled any concerns I had promptly. Thank you Brittany for watching Lucas! Highly recommended.”


“Renae was a wonderful choice. Took very good care of our dog. She texted updates during his stay and also photos of him enjoying himself. She also has training knowledge and actually taught him a new command.”


“Carol was the absolute best sitter we have known and used. Our dog was certainly a challenge at 17+ years old but she handled him with love and care throughout his stay. His poor eyesight and hearing, weak legs, anxiety, and the medications required for them were handled professionally.”

About: I am an average guy who works from home 3/4 time. I have a small but quaint place with a fenced in yard. I have 2 dogs who will keep your dog company who love to play, sleep and cuddle. I have plenty of dog toys and treats. I am able to attend to your dogs needs as needed but at least every hour in between my sessions. I have cameras tp observe the dogs when I am not home and friends close by should I absolutely need. I work from home and can have hourly bathroom breaks. I also have pee-pee pads available. I take daily walks with my girls or I can provide individual walks for my visitors. Weekends are usually light with plans but never far away. As mentioned, I will be able to be home with periodic office hours. I have toys and a small yard. If I am stopping into your home, I will respect your and your pets boundaries and expectations.
