Charlotte was amazing with my 7 month old blue tick puppy! This was my first time leaving her with anyone that’s not family. Charolette sent me tons of pictures and made sure my puppy felt right at home! Will definitely be using her services again!

If I could give 100 stars I would for the exceptional care Sarah gave to my baby I would. Not only did she care for Penny as if she was her own, this was the first time Penny has been left with anyone other than family, and Sarah made Penny feel as though she was family. I would recommend Sarah to service your pet without hesitation only when I wouldn't need her again, period!

I am beyond thankful that I found Lucky to board our two rescue pups with. I was very anxious over having to find someone whom I could trust. I looked at boarding facilities and other pet sitting services, but nothing felt right. I found Lucky after actually reaching out to two other pet sitters who were not a good fit. Lucky and Matt were the answer to my prayers. They both love dogs and are the nicest humans. I felt at ease at our meet and greet and saw how gentle and relaxed their demeanors were, which made my dogs relaxed. I am very choosey over my dogs and I would wholeheartedly recommend Lucky as a pet caretaker. She is professional, courteous and communicates extremely well. Lucky and Matt are also very patient and nurturing with dogs and our pups took to them immediately. We got daily updates and pics which made me see how well my dogs were doing, which allowed me to enjoy my vacation. Both of our girls loved the “doggie B&B” and were tired, happy and clean when we picked them up. I know they enjoyed their pupcation as much as we enjoyed our vacation. Thank you Lucky and Matt for loving our dogs as your own. They will definitely be back:)

Kourtney took excellent care of my dog while I was away for a week. She ensured that my couch potato had a comfortable spot in her home, and sent frequent updates with photos. I was able to relax knowing that my dog was in such a friendly, caring home.

Kim was amazing with my dog, Tux!! He stayed with her for 3 nights and had a blast! I know he was well taken care of! She also bathed and groomed him while he was with her and I got him back so clean and well groomed! She does such an amazing job and we will be coming back to her for grooming and hopefully he can visit again when we have to go out of town. She really is amazing and amazing at what she does! You can tell she truly loves the animals she watches and takes care of!

Miranda is absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! She took care of our dog Archie last-minute (for the first time, too) and was incredibly kind, helpful, and constantly updated me while watching him. Archie had such a good time, he didn't want to leave! We also had to pick him up past midnight on our way back, and Miranda was extremely accommodating and, again, was just amazing overall. Her dog Crush was also super sweet and has become Archie's first best friend. We will absolutely be using her services again, and I highly recommend others to do the same!!!

Aaren and Jordan are absolutely amazing, phenomenal pet sitters! From the moment I left Arya in their care, I knew she was in loving and patient hands. They treated her like family, and that meant everything to me while I was away. Their communication was top-tier—they kept me updated consistently with messages and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. On top of that, they were incredibly flexible and accommodating, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Arya truly found her second home with them, and there’s no doubt they are now her permanent sitters. I appreciate them more than words can express and can’t thank them enough for the love and care they showed my big girl. 💕🐾

About: Hi, I’m Johnnie! With over a decade of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I provide a calm, reliable, and personalized environment for every pup. Whether your dog loves high‑energy play or prefers a quiet place to relax, I tailor my care to fit their unique needs. I offer companionship, feeding, walking, grooming, and bathing, along with a fully fenced yard for safe, supervised play. Crate training or crating is available upon request. Your dog’s comfort, routine, and happiness always come first. Pet care is naturally woven into my daily and weekly routine. I structure my day around feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs each dog may have. Because I work from home and keep a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, and plenty of supervised outdoor time in my fenced yard. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening wind‑downs, I make sure every dog gets the right balance of exercise, enrichment, and relaxation. Caring for pets isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s a core part of my everyday life. How I Care for Pets in My Home In my home, dogs enjoy a safe, structured, and loving environment. I provide consistent routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. My fully fenced yard allows for supervised outdoor play, and I tailor activities based on each dog’s energy level—whether that’s high‑energy fetch or calm relaxation. I maintain a clean, comfortable space and can accommodate crate training or crating upon request. Every dog gets personalized attention, enrichment, and plenty of affection. **How I Care for Pets in a Client’s Home** When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines to keep pets comfortable and stress‑free. I stick to the owner’s feeding schedule, walking preferences, and any special instructions. I make sure the home stays tidy, provide updates with photos, and give each pet the same level of care and attention they’re used to. My goal is to make their time away from their family feel as normal and reassuring as possible.

Amanda is a true pup lover. My dog has anxiety when he leaves home, and usually won't eat or play while I am gone. Amanda's calm disposition and pup friendly home was all it took for him to be comfortable. She had him eating like normal on day one, and living his best pup life with his 2 new best friends. Thank you so much!! Would definitely recommend for anyone whose pup struggles when they leave home!

We recently hired Claire to care for our dog AJ, a 4 year old retriever , while we were away for an entire month. Overall, the experience was excellent, and we felt confident that our boy was in capable hands. From the start, communication was smooth and timely. Claire made sure to ask detailed questions about AJ’s routine, diet, preferences, and quirks, which gave us peace of mind. During the stay, she provided regular updates and photos, showing walks, playtime, and quiet moments — a thoughtful touch we really appreciated. Our dog seemed relaxed and happy upon our return. It was clear Claire took her responsibility seriously and genuinely cared for our pet’s well-being. She was by far our best boarding experience. We would absolutely recommend Claire to other pet owners looking for reliable and attentive care. We’re already planning to rebook for our next trip!
