“Danielle and her family took wonderful care of Olly over a holiday weekend. He’s an older dog who is sensitive to his care and surroundings and we are grateful for the careful, thoughtful care Danielle provided!”
“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“Carissa was very sweet with my dogs, Charlie and Murphy. She sent pictures of my dogs being spoiled every day. I didn’t have any worries leaving them in her care. Hope to be a repeat customer!”
“Melody did so amazing at comforting our king and us when we dropped King off! It’s the most comfortable he’s been during a drop off as he usually has anxiety. Communication was great and we loved the pics and videos of the time they spent together. Thank you Melody for taking great care of our fur baby.!”
“Another great stay for our Penny! Debbie is so good at sending pics and keeping us updated on how Penny is doing while we’re away so we have total peace of mind.”
“June did a wonderful job taking care of my pup! She was very prompt in response time, and was very attentive and sent updates and multiple pictures while she took care of my pup. Thank you so much, June!”
About: I have experience with dogs since a very young age, they have always truly been my best friends. I have fostering experience & have cared for mother dogs, witnessed birth, and taken care of their newborns. I live in an apartment with my boyfriend and our two cats and toy cockapoo, we are open to dog boarding and sitting! Please keep in mind when requesting us, I do work full time M-F 8-4:30p and my boyfriend works full time M-Th and every other weekend until 2:30 or 3pm, so our best availability is evenings, weekends, and overnight sittings. We look forward to meeting your precious fur babies!
“Elena was amazing. She is truly a dog lover. Romeo was so comfortable at her home. He did not skip a beat. It was like he was at our extended family's home. I plan on using her exclusively in the future. Truly an amazing experience!”
“I have used Jill a couple of times now and couldn't be happier. She is a wonderful lady that really takes good care of our boys. This last trip was so long the boy's didn't recognize us at first. I think they miss being there with all the other pup's. Anyway, if you want someone who cares about your animals, she's your right choice!!!!”
“Caroline treats our pups like her own. She is great with pairing Lady and Jazzi with other dogs. Very caring and considerate. Will definitely use her services in future!”
“Dickson was absolutely wonderful with Charlie! He sent frequent videos and photo updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Charlie is 12 years old and diabetic, she stayed on her eating schedule and received her insulin shots on time — Dickson handled everything perfectly and with such care. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was safe, happy, and enjoying time playing in his fenced backyard. You can truly tell he loves animals and treats them like family. This was such a great experience, and I will absolutely have Charlie stay with him any time. Highly recommend Dickson to any friends or family looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!!”
“From start to finish, Barbara was helpful and welcoming to our family and Kylo. Kylo definitely missed her and wanted to say goodbye. We will definitely use Barbara again because she took amazing care of our family dog. Thank you for all the updates and for looking out for our dog.”
“We are so grateful for Angela and Dave stepping in last minute to care for our pup during our two-night trip. Their responsiveness from the start made us feel at ease, and we really appreciated the regular photo updates showing our dog happy and comfortable. It was clear that our pup was well taken care of, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommended!”
“We appreciated the updates letting us know our dog was having a fun time during his stay! Great communication. It always means a lot to know our dog is being well cared for. Already booked a second stay!”
“We would highly recommend Shalyn and Joe to anyone looking to have their dog looked after. They responded promptly to any concerns we had and we received daily photos and updates on how our Pixie was doing.”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”

Danielle took such good care of my little bug! He was super nervous after I left, but Danielle took him for a nice walk to get the jitters out and let him cuddle her and her kids (and even sent me pictures of him laying across their arms while on their laptop) and he immediately warmed up. I was so grateful she came through for me for a last minute booking. Will absolutely be bringing Archie to her again!
From start to finish, Barbara was helpful and welcoming to our family and Kylo. Kylo definitely missed her and wanted to say goodbye. We will definitely use Barbara again because she took amazing care of our family dog. Thank you for all the updates and for looking out for our dog.
I knew from the moment I met Jill, that Molly and Duke would be well loved and cared for when we were away. She's warm and welcoming and definitely a dog lover! She shared some pictures of the dogs and a video of her son playing catch with Duke. They had a fun stay, no doubt! Thank you Jill. We will be back soon!
Brooklyn (and Mav) were great with our two yellow labs. Levi loved having another dog to play with and they both looked like they were right at home in all the photos Brooklyn sent. She was very accommodating and took care of both of them like they were her own. I definitely will be booking with Brooklyn again!
