“Last night was my first night away from my 4 month old puppy. Even though my pup did great on our meet and great I was very anxious about leaving her. Bob knew my husband and I were celebrating our 25 year wedding anniversary and made sure we relaxed and enjoyed ourselves but sending periodic updates with pics. When we picked up our puppy today she just woke up from a nap on Bob's lap. She was happy to see us but in no rush to leave. Bob will now be watching her for 10 nights in the summer and I couldn't be happier. I am 100% confident that I found the perfect sitter for my little girl. Thank you again Bob!!!”
“Michelle was so great to our dog, Josie. We were in a pinch and needed a last minute sitter. Michelle was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She sent pictures and updates throughout the stay which made me feel at ease knowing Josie was in good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dog loving sitter!”
“Felt 100% confident leaving my pup with Deena. She sent pics every day and texted with updates on how he was doing. Will definitely book again!”
About: My name is John, I previously raised a pit lab mix for 12 years before she passed. She was sweet dog but required additional attention around other dogs and had genetic health issues. I have two kids between 8 and 12 would like to experience having a dog in the house again but would only be able to handle dogs good with children. I look forward to hosting your dog in my house where I can offer a clean, save, loving environment. I’m looking forward to weekend opportunities to host where we will prioritize your dogs needs. I work from home Monday- Friday 9 - 5, so weekdays are possible. I have a fenced in yard where your dog can run and play. I have local hiking trails for walking dogs. Would prefer dogs that are/ being crate trained. And Dogs would be limited to main floor. ( no stairs )
“Michael is a terrific guy with a great sidekick, his super chill dog Archie!

“They took great care of my dog when he had a tummy ache and cooked him chicken and rice. They also had to give him a bath. My Freddy is an older dog and they went above and beyond in making him feel loved and cared for”
“Rachel and Brian were very accommodating during our trip! We got held up and had to stay another day and they had absolutely no problem extending Oreos stay. They sent us pictures during our trip showing how happy Oreo was which made us feel better since this was the first time we ever left him for an extended period of time. When we got back it seemed as if Oreo didnt want to leave! We highly recommend them!”
