Melanie is absolutely wonderful! She takes such great care of Spanky during daycare, and I love that her two sweet little dogs enjoy playing with him too—it’s like a playdate every time! She keeps me updated throughout the day with how he’s doing, which gives me so much peace of mind. It’s clear that she goes above and beyond to meet his needs and make sure he’s comfortable and happy. I highly recommend Melanie if you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves and cares for dogs.

We received updates and pictures and received all the details of the day. We would 1000% re-book with Makenna! Amazing service, Amazing Family, Amazing time! Thank you so much!!

We will most definitely use Lindsay and Spencer again! They took so much care to do all the things that I explained would help with his separation anxiety and Mylo was SO happy there. Their communication was excellent They checked in with great questions and sent me adorable photos, one of which is my new favorite photo of Mylo! Their dog Ruthie was SUCH a friendly sweetheart, that Mylo ran back and gave her a kiss before we left! (Usually he's like "let's go, get me outta here" but their little dog is soooo adorable and friendly.) Mylo will be excited to come back and visit this home again!

Brittany was an awesome dog sitter! She sent regular updates and pictures that made me feel so reassured while I was away from our 7 month old puppy all day. Her two dogs were wonderful to play with Fonzie and were very patient when he wanted to snuggle or sit on them. I’m looking forward to more great dog sitting experiences from Brittany and her pups!

About: Our home has experience from puppies to seniors with needs. The fenced yard will be a playground with our pet-loving kids and two senior dogs I work from home and am available to let the dogs out regularly through the day, and give them the attention they need. Our pets are on a regular 2x/day feeding schedule, as well as medicine, so we’re prepared to meet those needs. Our yard is fenced and fully secure, just a few steps down from the deck. Pets are encouraged to enjoy great weather and play, but are welcome in the home and in furniture. Must get along with two dogs, and be prepared for spoiling of kisses and treats from our two kids!

First off, WOW! Lisbeth went above and beyond for my dog, Archie! She was incredibly communicative and sent me daily updates, which made my hectic one-day trip to Salt Lake so much smoother. Archie instantly connected with both Lisbeth and her dog, Honey, and he came home exhausted from an amazing play day. If you’re looking for a fantastic dog sitter, don’t hesitate to contact Lisbeth—she’s truly the best I’ve come across!

About: Hi there! I have a sweet dog named Momo who loves other dogs as well as cats. I’ve dog sat, walked, boarded, etc for the last 15 or so years. I like spending time with animals and giving them lots of attention, respect, care and love. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and runs, as well as throwing tennis balls and playing with their favorite chew toys. I am an easy going, but an active and responsible person. I love to have fun, but I also like to be safe and know when I need to lay down the law. I am easily contacted via my cell for scheduling and general check-ins on how your dog is doing. I would love to make your acquaintance and see how I can help you and your furry friend! I work from home with a 9-5, somewhat flexible schedule so I am available for all your dog needs. I usually walk my dog twice a day and can accommodate similar needs. I have a fenced in yard with a dog door for pups to run around whenever they want. I’m also a short walk to the park for some ball throwing play time! My own dog is crated when no one is home, but if your dog is house trained I do not require crating for them.

Even though her location is out of my way, our first daycare booking was proof positive to me that the extra travel is worth having Evette care for my fur pup. Instructions were followed closely and she kept in touch with updates and a cute photo. I'm glad I didn't pass up the opportunity to go out of my way for such good caregiving.

Cat is an awesome dog sitter. We live down the street from where she grew up and Cat would walk our dog and feed our barn animals when we travelled. She is responsible, conscientious, and super friendly. She really enjoyed spending time with our dog and he was always excited to see her -- which is how you know if she treats your dog well.
