“First time we have boarded our dogs overnight but everything worked out great! Christina kept us informed, sent photos, videos and updates throughout the day. She was very respectful of our instructions and concerns for our pets. We look forward to using her again and recommend her highly.”
“This is our first time leaving our puppy with anyone especially for multiple days. Cindy was really responsive and flexible as we figured out our plans. Kuma had some playmates while he stayed and came home tuckered out. I loved the vidoes and the photos she sent to us, letting us know he is outside getting exercise and having lots of fun! I am glad to have found Cindy for Kuma and the family!”
“Natalie was the best. She is so kind and took such care of our Louie. She was really tuned in to him and what he needed and was in touch with us to share photos and updates. I don't see how we could have found a better sitter for our dog.”
“My dog can be pretty shy but warmed up so quickly to Kaylee! Kaylee was super communicative and accommodating and sent lots of pictures and updates during our stay. Would love to use Kaylee again in the future!”
“Our pup is a sensitive, nervous guy. Marna made sure he felt loved and at home. I could tell he was having fun with her family through the photos she sent. She filled us in each day and sent photos. 🤩 Will definitely use Marna again!”
“Alissa truly provides a dog disneyland for our pups. Enrichment exercises, fun treats, and an agility course. She treated them like they were her own. Even took the most amazing photos of them I’ve ever seen. Do not hesitate to leave your dogs with her, except for fear of them not wanting to come home. Highly highly recommend.”
“Mariah, Kyle and family took good care of our 10 yr. old Portuguese Water Dog during our week long family vacation. They treated him like he was part of the family and he enjoyed being around their dog and another one they were also boarding. Having a fenced in yard was perfect for playing and getting exercise. They were easy to communicate with and wonderful about giving regular updates and sending photos.”
“Audrey was absolutely sensational and caring for our dog while we were away for several days. We had never used her before and we feel like we really lucked out!! Our dog got daily hikes, great toppers on her regular dry food, special treats, and lots of time to roam and sniff + play with the other pups that Audrey was caring for. Thanks, Audrey, for your amazing care. We appreciate you so much and look forward to using you again!”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my entire life and have taken on some of my friend’s dogs while they were away without issues. I also have experience taking care of my dog after severe leg surgery that left her unable to use her rear legs for a month. I am currently working from home, so I will always be around to make sure your dog is safe and happy. I will also be available to let them out frequently and go on walks. We have a house far from the road that is secluded from other houses or people. We have a large backyard they can play in with my 3 year old lab mix. I can crate them at night if needed or leave them out to sleep on one of the many dog beds depending on your preference.
“Rebecca was a great fit for our dog Roxy! Roxy doesn’t like to be left alone and loves to go on walks so Rebecca was a perfect choice for a pet sitter. Roxy also loved playing with her dog Congo! We also loved the pictures and videos she sent while we were away.”
“We picked up a very happy and well cared for dog at the end of her stay. Lacey and her family provided thoughtful and professional care to our Kwila. They went above and beyond when Kwila had one of her seizures, contacting the emergency vet and keeping us informed. We felt Kwila was very well cared for, and we are grateful.”
“Marissa is always thoughtful and sweet with my boy, Blue. When we have to leave him, he knows he gets to have a sleepover with his pal Marissa, and it’s like a mini dog vaca for him too. We have such a better time knowing that he’s in great hands!”
“Craig did a great job of babysitting our dog Heiwa for two weeks. We received an update with pictures almost every day we were gone, including pictures of Heiwa romping on the beach with Craig and his dog Penny. I highly recommend him if you need a dog sitter. We will definitely use him again next time we need a sitter!”
“Breanna has been an absolute lifesaver! Her flexibility was quite remarkable. But, on to the dogs— she’s like a dog whisperer lol. My very difficult and reactive dog took to her immediately and my senior dog was comfortable as well. My dogs were well cared for, no doubt about it. I will definitely use her again.”
“Eliot was wonderful! She was so good with our dog and even gave me some great tips on a type of lead that might be more comfortable for our dog and still prevent her from pulling. We will definitely use Eliot again if the need arises.”
About: I grew up with dogs, since I can remember, I was watching all of my neighbors dogs before I was even old enough to work. I have no problem, administrating medication‘s, or even giving them a bath or doing their nails. I love animals so much that one day I hope to grow up and have a big piece of land so that I can hold a sanctuary for all the animals I can give a good home too and rehabilitate. This is my full-time job watching your loved ones and helping out in anyway I can so I am fully and completely at your disposal. I have an un fence yard currently so unless you’re comfortable with having them be off the leash I’ll take them for a walk or to a dog park with your permission. I don’t mind animals on my furniture, but if I were in your home and that’s not cool with you, just let me know. All I wanna do is provide comfort and enjoyment while giving you the ability to relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“This is our second time boarding Curt with Chelsea. She took very good care of him while we were on vacation and sent pictures and updates on how he was doing. Would highly recommend her anytime!”
“Makaylah was absolutely wonderful. I needed very last minute overnight accommodations for my pup, and ended up needing an extra day of care. Makaylah was so kind and flexible. My dog (who is often nervous with new people for a few minutes) took to her immediately, and it made me feel so comfortable leaving her, and I got morning and evening texts with sweet pictures and updates on how she was doing. I would highly recommend Makaylah to anyone!”
“Natalie was amazing with our dog Leo! After a last minute illness prevented us from using his normal boarding facility, we found Natalie to help us take care of Leo over the holidays. She provided regular updates and he had a great time with her. He seemed very comfortable in her home and we will definitely trust her again with our dog!”
“I don't often leave 5 star reviews, but Amberlynn keyed in to our needs to make Henry's stay with them wonderful. I have a highly reactive dog, and was extremely nervous to leave him with someone, but she had great communication with me leading up to his stay and handled his behavior wonderfully, but of more importance, she also keyed into what I needed to ensure both he, and they, were comfortable together so I could relax and enjoy my vacation without stressing over how he was doing there. We had a lot of communication on the onset to calm my nerves, and once I knew he and they were settled comfortably, we had a few "he's doing great" check ins. Not only would I highly recommend her for her care of my dog, I would also highly recommend her for calmly dealing with an anxious owner.”
