“Our frenchie spent an exciting day with Vanson’s dogs. He loves to run around and that’s exactly what he did. Vanson sent photos and a video of Bentley having fun. This was Bentley’s first stay with Vanson and it was a success.”

“We highly recommend having Karen watch your dogs, she is like the dog whisperer. Our dogs both had a great time playing with her dogs and were exhausted when we came back to pick them up. They both just blended right in like they had been there before and they have never acted that way before. We will definitely use her again without a doubt.”

About: I grew up as the daughter of a professional dog trainer—my mother—and have carried on her love for all animals. I was taught how to handle reactive, nervous dogs with calm gentle confidence, keep high-energy dogs busy with engaging activities, and give mindful care of dogs that have any special needs. Dogs have been a part of my life since birth, including my 15 year old boy Chunk that is so disarming, he makes an excellent companion for even the most nervous dogs. I’ve gained a broad amount of experience as the go-to enthusiastic dog sitter for all my friends and family’s pets. I would love share a warm, welcoming home with your pet where nightly snuggles on the couch are the norm. I work from home so I can be as available as your dog needs. My partner also is home for most of the day, and only works in the evenings so one of us is almost always home. We live surrounded by trails and parks so your dog will have ample adventures during their stay. Every dog will be treated with the same love and care as if they were our own. We have a large fenced yard that they are free to roam, and a cozy home with dog beds everywhere. We allow dogs on couch and bed, though I can maintain any rules you have in your home for consistency. We do also have a cat so we cannot accept any dogs that are in any way aggressive towards cats or small critters.

About: I have 5 years of experience dog-sitting for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and ages. I am responsible, caring, and attentive to each dog’s needs, including feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic medications, and providing companionship. I ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also maintain clean living spaces, follow specific care instructions carefully, and keep owners updated with regular communication and photos. My experience has helped me build strong trust with both pets and their owners. I am available for dog boarding on both weekdays and weekends, offering flexible scheduling to fit your needs. Whether it’s a short stay or an extended visit, I ensure consistent care, attention, and a comfortable routine for your pup throughout their stay. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home environment for pets. My home has a large fenced backyard where dogs can play, exercise, and enjoy outdoor time safely. I make sure every pet feels relaxed, cared for, and treated like family. I closely follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and special care instructions. Safety, trust, cleanliness, and plenty of attention are always my top priorities.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and a reliable, caring person. As a 7th grade teacher for 10 years and mother of 2 humans and one dog, I’m patient, attentive, and loving. I’ll treat your dog like part of my family and provide a safe, loving home where they feel comfortable and cared for. I work part time from home. I work in our main space overlooking the large deck and gated yard. My doggy loves to sleep at my feet or stretch out in the sun. I walk my child and dog(s) to local school for fresh air and exercise in the morning. Then I work in our main space overlooking the large deck and yard. Either an early afternoon walk or a rigorous game of catch or play. My kids (9 and 14) are around most afternoons, providing extra stimulation or cuddles as desired. Safety is top priority! Your doggy can have free access to the yard if they won’t jump our 4 foot fence. If they have an uncanny desire to jump, they can still be outside on our large deck or have supervised visits in the yard for play and “business”.

About: I grew up on a ranch surrounded by animals and have spent years caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including breeds like Rottweilers, Pit mixes, and my own German Shepherd, Daisy. As a pet parent myself, I take a patient, gentle approach built on trust, helping every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a pet parent myself. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets receive consistent attention, adequate exercise, nutrition, companionship, and care. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I make it a priority to be reliable, responsive, and attentive to each pet’s needs. Safety and trust are at the core of my approach to pet care. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, unique personality, and needs to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize a calm, clean environment, close supervision, and clear communication to ensure pets receive safe, attentive, and compassionate care.

“Tamiko was great! She took such good care of my French bulldog and was very attentive the whole time. I loved getting frequent updates and photos - it really put me at ease. My little guy was happy and well cared for, and I’d recommend anyone, particularly with a French bulldog, to give her a call!”

“Baoying was great with Louie! She provided playtime and exercise for my very playful pet. I also like the way her pet matches Louie’s energy, Louie is a lot calmer when i picked him up.”

Lora C.

“My baby Kona doesn’t go anywhere else. She loves P. I get photos and cute videos all the time. She also knows every time we are going to her house and runs directly for her door barking. She has a blast every time”

Melisa C.

“Darren and his family welcomed us with warmth and kindness. We are nervous first time dog owners and were unsure how this new experience would go. Everything was clean and safe. Our pup immediately felt at home with Darren and his family. Darren was thoughtful, diligent, and practical when we talked about our dog's care needs. Our pup enjoyed walks, and got her regular meals and naps. When we picked her up, she was playing and happy. Her mood was great the rest of the night. We look forward to many more doggy daycare days with Darren and his family!”

Camille W.

“Neela was friendly and communicative. She read my care instructions and asked questions. My pup Katara can sometimes get stressed in new environments but she seemed at home in the photo updates and she came home relaxed and happy. I already booked Katara's next stay with Neela!”

Kaila Y.

“During our weekend visit to Sun River, Nikki and her husband watched my very anxious Aussiedoodle for the day while we took kids to an event that was not suitable for dogs. They took wonderful care of her (and me :-), I must add) and I will not hesitate to contact her on our next visit to the area. Thank you, Nikki!”

Vivian B.

“Highly recommend Nicole. She was super flexible and accommodating with drop off and pick up. Spartacus would perk right up when he saw her - I could see he was in good hands. Loved the pictures and updates too!”

“Kushram and Family are a wonderful find for dog sitting or doggy day care. Give the initial booking request a bit of lead time, as the confirmation that the day/time works may take up to a day to come through. This time I put in a request 9:30pm on a Saturday, and got confirmation Sunday evening. (I suspect requests are processed daily). The initial booking request was the largest gap we experienced in communication, scheduling the meet and greet by messages was easy - they were very responsive and want to ensure you and your pup will be comfortable with their set up and go over any special needs of the dog. Our elder pup Rick was drawn to Kushram and the whole family even on the meet and greet (I think just his wife and adult nephew), as well the drop off day of, and they were able to make him comfortable enough to eat even on a short visit. Given our short booking (only about 3 hrs) we can't really comment on long term pictures/communication during the visit, but I can say I feel pretty happy that I found some place local where I feel comfortable leaving my dog when I need to go somewhere. They also have some experience with some dog special needs, but can help best when they know about it ahead of time. They were not concerned or put off in the slightest by our pups needs (mostly that he's pretty clingy, can get cold easily, and only has 3 teeth and will only eat small pieces of food, and doesn't love hanging out with other dogs), and described other dogs they had watched with similar or more challenging needs such as dog-sitting a blind dog in a new space. Thank you for taking good care of our pup!”
