“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful with Zelda. She took such great care of Zelda and she had so much fun that Zelda just wanted stay when we came to pick her up. Elizabeth took videos and pics to send to me while we were away which was so reassuring. It was fantastic and I plan on having Zelda stay there again every time I need go on a trip. So thankful!”


“Bella was so excited to see Brette again after the greet and meet before hand. Let's just say she was a very happy camper! Brette sent pictures each day showing how happy and active Bella was doing. I have another trip planned and have definitely booked Brette. You couldn't ask for a more attentive sitter for your pet. I am very pleased with her as my sitter when needed.”


“Amber was wonderful! She sent us several updates, including videos and pictures, was very friendly, took great care of our two girls and had great communication! We look forward to booking with her again :)”


“Bethany was amazing with Dax! I wasn’t worried a bit while I was on my trip!! He had the best time playing with her and her pups! Highly recommend will 100% be rebooking in the future when I need someone to watch my dog!”


About: I grew up around dogs and have been a dog Mom for almost three years now. I believe that dogs deserve a full life filled with new experiences and activities. I'm your girl if you want your pup to be active and social while you're away. I have experience caring for dogs of different temperaments and ages. Please let me know what your dog's needs are and I will accommodate you all as best I can. I understand the pain of leaving your puppy with a stranger - rest assured, I will treat your pup with as much respect and affection as my own. Please feel free to reach out to schedule a meet and greet if you would like to see if I am a good fit for your pup. I have worked remote the last few years which means your dog will rarely be without my presence during their stay. I will fit their schedule and needs in right alongside my own dog's. I have a large unfenced back yard where our dog loves to play. We are happy to crate your dog, put them on a long lead outside and do anything that makes you comfortable and assured that your pet is safe.

“Walt kept our boy, Teddi, for four days. Teddi is a 3 yo intact English Shepherd who has never spent a night away from us. Teddi is a very well behaved and friendly boy but we were a bit anxious how this would go. Walt kept us well informed on how Teddi was doing. Walt gave Teddi great care and a lot of attention. When we returned to pick up Teddi, it was obvious that he and Teddy had bonded very well. We are very pleased with the care that Walt provided and will certainly use him again.”


“Kayla and her sweet children took such good care of my dogs I think they were almost sad to return home. Lots of outdoor play and love in a family environment. Lots of pictures and updates. Dogs were cared for exactly as if they were in their own home with care taken to follow familiar routines. We look forward to using Kayla’s services again!”


“Can't say enough great things about wonderful Kirsten J.! We had a recent trip to Pipestem State Park near Princeton, WVa but couldn't find a local sitter so decided to board near the park. I am so happy to find Kirsten! She was about 25 minutes from Pipestem - so convenient. She has such warmth and positive, joyful energy! Our beagle girl gets nervous in new settings but she fit right in with Kirsten's pack. It helps that she didn't attempt to confine our girl and had lots of backyard sniffing space and a comfy bed. Kirsten works BEAUTIFULLY with senior pups, which some providers cannot do. She has great compassion and love for her guests. Also, her own fur babies are adorable. When we came to pick up Bibs, all the pups, including Bibs, came wagging to the door like they'd been a pack forever. If you're visiting Princeton, Athens, and especially Pipestem and need a sitter, do not hesitate to contact Kirsten! Thank you so much!!! <3”


“Diana and her wife did an amazing job taking care if our rambunctious babies! I let them know about how they like to eat things they shouldn't that are lying around the house and how our dog Lily likes to be an escape artist in the back yard. They took such great care of our babies that they informed me they swept up the floors thoroughly before we dropped them off and they watched them closely in the yard. Because of how well they were watching them, they were able to prevent our puppy Lily from succeeding in one of her escape attempts in their yard (she was digging up a hole, but they caught it, covered up the hole and kept her away from that side of the yard). I was able to enjoy our vacation so much more because I felt like I didn't have to worry about my babies being taken care of well. They communicated with me everyday and sent me lots of photos while we were gone. I will definitely come back to Diana and her wife when we need dog sitting for our upcoming trips.”


“Madison was nothing short of excellent! Super conscientious, followed care details carefully, very responsive to messages and sent lots of pictures and updates. Highly recommend!”


“Lovely experience with Emily. You could tell she has experience with animals. Very communicative and enjoyed receiving pics while away from my kitty. I am confident to leave my furry friend with her again as she was very attentive and sweet with my kitty.”


“We had a terrific experience with Heather caring for our 2 dogs. She was quick responding to texts and sent pictures of our dogs looking very comfortable in her home. I would highly recommend Heather for pet care.”


“First off y'all are awesome!! I absolutely couldn't recommend a sitter in the area more highly. I was a little apprehensive at first because right before the big trip my boy got a UTI. Callie assured me he would be in great hands and I wouldn't have to worry about a thing. Boy was she right. I'm already looking forward to planning my next trip knowing Max will be safe and very loved!!”


“Amy takes excellent care of my one year old dog Nellie while she is boarding in her home. She has a huge fenced back yard allowing for plenty of active playtime between my pup and her fun and friendly dog Sadie. Amy is very knowledgeable about dog care, behavior, and needs and I feel completely confident Nellie is in great hands during her stay!”

“Ria has been helping with my Dog for the last year. He has special needs and instructions, and she follows them perfectly. Ria also is very caring and loving to my dog. They have a great relationship going between them. She will also send pictures when I’m away on a trip. Ria and her husband Andrei are super people. Reliable, personable, thoughtful and friendly. I’ve been very lucky to have them and I believe anyone that needs someone to be with their animals would be smart to use her.”
