“Marinda did a great job with our dogs so much so that it appeared they didn’t want to leave lol. 2nd time we’ve utilized her services and will be reaching out again for our next vacation.”
“Sujeong & Changsun were extremely attentive to our dog. Cooper had a great stay! They sent us updates throughout the night which kept us more at ease as Cooper can be rather anxious at times. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter in this area!”
“My dog felt right at home and was very comfortable with this family. They were loving, gentle, attentive, kind, fun, conscientious, and consider it for my fur baby and for us. Kelly sent us lots of pictures and kept us a breast as to what was happening each day. I appreciate how the kids played with him very gently and the little girl even taught him how to lie down. I have a puppy which demands extra Care and they did so patiently. I greatly appreciate it this family and will definitely book with them again and I highly recommend their loving care for your pet! Thank you so much family for taking care of my 5 mo fur baby! I greatly appreciate all that you did for him making him feel like part of your family in loving him as we would.”
“If i could give 10 stars i would! I had an excellent experience with Maria for my dog’s boarding! She showed incredible love and care for my dog Mambo, keeping me reassured the entire time. I received constant updates with pictures and videos, so I knew my baby was happy and well taken care of. It was clear that Maria genuinely cared about my dog’s well-being, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. Highly recommend!"”
“Kira was amazing with Charlie and agreed to a week long stay with a semi short notice. She provided updates on her own and when asked. No complaints and would use her services again!”
“Our three senior pups love Amanda! We went away for 10 days and ran into some issues on our way home. Amanda was incredibly flexible and kind with the pick up. The dogs were well cared for and we had peace of mind while we were out of town. Thanks, Amanda!”
“Jessica was amazing with Felix, kept me up to date on how he was doing and provided a bunch of pictures. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous, but she made it extremely worry free. Her dogs were extremely friendly and even welcomed Felix the minute they saw each other. I will definitely choose her to watch Felix again!”
About: I have been an animal lover all of my life, and was raised with 5 huskies. Since then, I’ve had a variety of animals, including a salamander, chinchillas, ferrets, dogs, cats, and hamsters. I'm looking for clients who will not mind if my son tags along for a visit or a walk, and an excuse to get us both out of the house (walking is a bonus!). I have experience working as a dog trainer with shelter and rescue dogs, so difficult behaviors are no issue! I would love to take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! I currently work 3 days a week and have availability Fridays thru Mondays to help care for your critters while you take weekend getaways :) I treat a client’s home with respect, and do my very best follow routines as closely to what you do as I can. My goal is to provide safe, secure care thag you can rely on.
“Very welcoming & made my fur baby feel right at home! Communication was prompt and received updates with photos. Above & beyond service. Will definitely book again and refer to others. Thank you!”
“Steffany and Juan have watched my dog Lyric many times and are always so nice. Lyric loves going over and spending time and playing with their dogs. I couldn’t recommend them enough and always know Lyric is in good hands with them.”
“This was Stanley’s first time away from home and we could not be happier. CJ was very accommodating and provided daily updates and pictures. Stan came back happy and tired from playing with all of the other dogs! We will definitely book with CJ again!”
“Kevin and Julie were absolutely amazing! They are the nicest couple I’ve ever met, and my dog clearly had the time of her life with them. She came back happy, healthy, and full of love. They treated her like one of their own, and it was clear she enjoyed every moment, especially all the cuddles. I couldn’t have asked for better care—highly recommend them!”
“Had a meet and greet with Betsy for our corgi, Maggie ,last Thursday. Today Maggie spent 4 hours with Betsy. Betsy was excellent with her and their home and environment is dog friendly. Betsy has also been very responsive to any texts or requests that I have sent to her. We have arranged for Maggie to have a sleep-over in July!”
“Lynnea is a wonderful provider, treated our pup as her own. We received daily communication, photos and videos. I will not hesitate to use Lynnea in the future and can recommend her services to your pampered pooch. Thanx again LW!”
