“Our 2nd visit to Katelin. Fantastic communication. Really appreciated the adorable daily update photos! Keke had a blast with her friends and was well taken care of. :)”
“Bella was so happy to be her house under her watching and when i pick her up, she didn’t even want to leave. And came back with out of energy and tiredness of having good times with new friends. Also her dogs are super friendly and welcoming to me. Love it and would book again.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience for our dog. Azure gave our pup a wonderful home away from home and we will definitely trust her to take care of her again! We received pictures and updates every day and knew that Saffy was in good hands.”
“Agnatha was amazing. We did the meet and greet while my dog, Cookie, was in perfect health. Unfortunately that evening my dog would need emergency surgery. My hotel wasn't refundable and I was worried about leaving my dog who now had to wear a cone and take medication. But Agnatha said she would be perfectly fine taking care of Cookie post surgery. When we picked Cookie up she was happy and healthy.”
“I would leave more stars if i could.Anne is an amazing sitter.She kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the day!!!I can only recommend her.I will book her again thats for sure”
“Ozzie had the best care at Stephanie’s. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home with me! She treated him just like her own and I feel very lucky to have had found her. I will definitely try to rebook next time we travel.”
“Mindi's gentle spirit was a perfect fit for Ozzy. He was very happy when picked up and seemed to enjoy his walks and time with Mindi. She kept in touch by sending pictures of Ozzy and asked questions about how best to care for him. I will gladly reach out to Mindi again the next time we need someone to watch Ozzy.”
“My boxer pup, Jax stayed with Sara for a week and I can’t be more happier that I chose her. Sara was attentive, accommodating and most of all so loving to Jax. I could not recommend anyone better…..bonus that she has pups of her own so she is very aware of the pups needs. Thank you Sara!”
“Kristen is amazing with our diva dog who has some anxiety. Our dog loves going to her house and meeting new friends. She is our first choice whenever we need someone to watch our dog.”
“Our boys had a blast with Jennofer and her family! They even seemed a bit disappointed to go home with us! We got wonderful daily (sometimes twice daily) updates with the best photos. Will definitely recommend and use her again!”
“April and her family were great hosts for our dog. Finn got much attention. I appreciated the photos April sent as well. I knew Finn was in good hands. Thanks.”
“Best decision to leave our boys with Joscelyn. They were so well loved and she provided updates and photos daily. Our vacation was so much more enjoyable knowing our babies were safe and happy. 1000% would recommend Joscelyn to anyone needing dog sitting.”
“Heather took excellent care of our two dogs. It was their first night away from home and they were relaxed and happy when we came to pick them up. We’ve already booked their next stay with her. I’m happy to recommend her services!”
About: I have been taking care of all dogs since I was 10. Doberman, Rottweiler, Hounds, Cocker spaniel, Labradoodle and Wheaton Terriers to name a few. I know how to be patient with the Rescues. When to give space and when to shower them with love. I have experience with senior dogs and their extra needs. I work from home, which allows plenty of time for potty breaks, play time, treats, and cuddles. I'm available for boarding 7 days a week. Treat them as i do my own. I have a spacious backyard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I have pet gates available if needed and plenty of comfy dog beds.
“Brody was well cared for and was treated with love and kindness. We received pictures of Brody "taking over" their own dogs big boy bed instead of his own smaller version, but it it didn't look like he cared very much! Pretty sure Brody was in charge as usual. I truly appreciate having someone who cares for our Brody's needs while we are away- he has such separation anxiety now that he is older! Thank you again Ashley for your kindness- I would recommend her for your pup's needs.”

Venus K.
“Mrs. Venus is so sweet and loving to our sweet Kobe. Venus has taken care of Kobe since he was a puppy. The first time we dropped Kobe off with Venus, we could tell it would be the perfect fit for Kobe; there is so much room for each puppy to run around and play. Venus also sent picture updates throughout that day, and she was okay with me calling from time to time to check in, which made me feel happy to see my furson having a good time. Now, whenever I put Kobe in the car and he knows he's going to see Mrs. Venus, he wags his tail all the way to her home.”
