“We boarded Griffin again with Meagan, overnight. We had planned to pick him up at 4 PM the next day. something came up at the last minute and I requested doggy daycare with her, to keep him until 9:30 PM. She was very accommodating, even though it was last minute. I appreciate that she was flexible, so much!”


“My pups were worn out after a night at Ashley's - a sure sign they had fun! Ashley is very accomodating and is great at keeping in touch with the owners while we are away!”


“This was my first time using Rover and Pattie and Paul were wonderful caregivers to my dog. They sent pictures and took him on walks and played with him. They kept me posted on daily events which made me feel like they truly cared about him. I highly recommend them!!”


“Tara & Peter are great sitters. They keep me informed of how Murphy was doing with his stay with them and any other dogs that were there. They were really good at sending me pictures of Murphy while interacting with the family and their dog. It was really reassuring and I feel they were a great choice for Murphy. I would use them again.”


“I recently had the pleasure of booking a 12-day boarding with Ashya and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, the communication was fantastic. Ashya was incredibly responsive and kept me updated with regular photos, videos and messages about how my Cleo was doing, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Cleo was clearly well-cared for, happy, and even relaxed when I picked her up. Ashya went above and beyond to make sure Cleo got her required exercise, and felt comfortable and loved throughout the stay. The professionalism, attention to detail and love for animals really shone through in everything Ashya did. I highly recommend Ashya for anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you so much Ashya for making my dog’s stay so easy and wonderful 🩷”


“Wonderful dog care and service by Natalia!! Every day we got photos of our dog while our dog stayed over her house for the weekend and we could tell our dog had the best time staying over there. Again, wonderful care and service. Definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a dog sitter! ☺️”


“Peaches was an amazing dogsitter! We were out of the country and were so excited to get daily photos and videos of our dog! She truly took in Louie as one of her own, and I will 100% be using her again!”


“Leslie has watched out dog several times now, and the experience has always been wonderful. She is responsive and shares lots of photos/videos, and our Ruthie comes home happy and energized. Our dog has a lot of anxiety and nervous behaviors and it's a huge relief to us that she's in such good hands with Leslie.”


“John & Jodie are truly amazing hearts!! They treated my 2 obnoxious, but loving fur boys as real children whom I typically worry & miss in a new person's care, but after our meet & greet I felt calm & during our time away from our pups had happy videos and texts of my boys having soo much fun & love. I was so very happy & grateful. My dogs truly had a vacay day with them. I would absolutely use them again and highly recommend. This review truly doesn't sum up our happy and thankful experience with them. Again, John & Jodie are amazing hearts! ??????”


“Sparkles has stayed several times with Tanja's family! Sparkles loves her time with her family! She loves in returning to visit for more fun adventures! Lots of love! 🥰”

“Debbie was great with our two English Bulldogs! It’s nice to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. She sent pics throughout the stay and let us know how they were doing. Will definitely be using her services again!”


About: I have had all kinds of critters over the past 40 years. I’ve volunteered with the lake humane society for many years, mainly fostering both short and long term puppies and dogs. I’ve care for many post surgical, and special needs. As a registered nurse, and self proclaimed dog whisperer, I am very attentive to my guest’s physical and emotional needs. I have watched small and extra large dogs for friends and family. I truly love them all Like family. I work from home and am home all day. I’m usually up by 6am and in bed by 930 pm. My girls are small and eat 3 times a day. My dogs are a huge part of my life and their routine is my routine. I have a large fenced in dog run that keeps them safe and allows them freedom to roam and run and play until they are content. They will have access to the entire home.

“When my girls are with Katie I know they are safe, happy, and healthy! They play and cuddle like true champions. I’m so pleased with Katie. Couldn’t be more thankful!”


“I have used this App couple of times in last 2 months but this time the experience was amazing. Kassandra and her boyfriend both were so nice and my puppy was so happy with him. They sent time to time information and pictures to make sure I am aware of how my puppy is doing. And she is so crisp and clear in her communication. I will see you again whenever we will travel this area again in March . Thank you”


“I can’t recommend Maria enough! She takes amazing care of my fur babies which includes taking them on lots of walks, which they love. She really helped me out when I was in a bind and was able to take my fur baby overnight with very short notice. I am so thankful to have found her!”


“Charlie had another amazing experience with Ashley and her family! They treat Charlie as their own and she answers any questions I have. I know Charlie truly enjoys his time with her!”


“Heather took really good care of Maia while she was there. She was very flexible with last minute booking and drop off and pick up times! I love that she sends pictures of Maya during her stay!”


“Steve and his wife provided the best care for Bebe. Their home was perfect for her stay: affectionate attention, companionship, and two sweet buddy dogs to play with. I was 100% comfortable leaving her with them and will definitely use them again!”


About: Any time a friend or a neighbor goes out of town or needs help, I'm the first one they call. I love spending time with animals and making sure they are happy, healthy and their needs are met! I love working with all ages. I’ve been around dogs and cats for pretty much my whole life. But I have a love for all animals! I know it can sometimes be hard to leave your furry loved ones with a stranger, but I can promise you I will treat them like my own! They’re in good hands(: I'm currently working a 9-5, but looking for something to keep me busy before and after work! (and weekends when I'm off work as well) I'm very passionate about working with animals I’m super flexible with everything so if you have any concerns, reach out to me and I’m sure we can figure it out! I have two friendly cats who love to play and get along with all animals! They also don't mind hanging out in the basement if need be. I've got a large area indoors and outdoors to keep your pet busy or they can relax on the couch!

He got to play outside and got to play with other dogs, which he really enjoys, and he got to enjoy family time with Gina and her family. We got daily pictures and videos of our fur baby while we were gone which was very comforting to see him being to well taken care of and how comfortable he felt at Gina’s.
