“Simply the best. We’ve taken our boys to Kristy several times now. They know when we’re getting close to her house and always so happy to walk right inside! She’s amazing! Thank you, Kristy!”


“Joseph was wonderful with taking care of our girl! He provided daily updates and made sure Tilly was active and entertained. Already have another booking with him!”


“Lola had a great time staying with Avonlea! Avonlea was very responsive and made sure to send pictures throughout the stay. Lola got to spend a lot of time playing outside and getting her energy out!”



“This is the third time we boarded our lovely Coco at Lauryn’s place. I am writing this review because Lauryn did a great job caring for Coco, a picky eater and attention seeker. We tried multiple places to board Coco in the last 6 years, but every time, Coco gets sick because they cannot feed Coco. We will use Lauryn’s service every time we need to board Coco.”


“Cassandra was amazing! She made sure to ask plenty of questions to make sure she understood my dogs habits, took him for a walk every day, and provided me with pictures and updates on how he is doing. Not only that, on one of the nights he was with her, one of her neighbors had started to set off fireworks, which terrifies my dog. Cassandra had played classical music, and comforted him for over and hour until the fireworks had stopped. I had felt like she had treated him as her own, which was exactly what I was hoping for, but more than I could have asked for.”


“Actually the best dog sitter i've had. She kept me updated on my dog's and sent pictures so i could see them . Definitely Recommend her if you easily stress about your fur babies.”


“Emily is the best! She takes such great care of my pup and is so flexible! I truly appreciate how much time and energy she gives to making sure my bulldog has the best experience possible when she is with him. Highly recommend!”


“Felt confident that Scout was being loved and cared for. Penny sent pics and videos and kept us updated on how Scout was doing. Would absolutely recommend Penny and use her again.”


“Katherine was exceptional with my dog Nala and I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone she went above and bed to make me and my dog comfortable and cared for I cannot thank her enough and will definitely use her again when needed! Lisa Hartsell”


“Sierra did amazing with my 2 year old pup, Dolly! She sent me tons of photos, was very commutative, and my Dolly had a blast! Dolly got sick during her stay and sierra delt with her and made her a special meal for her tummy! Not many people will do this so this was a big win for me!”


“First time using this service and first time my 3 cats stay with a new human. I highly recommend Kasey, she made every step of the process easy. By the time I arrive to pick them up. She was waitinf outside with the kittens luggage 😅 and the cats already packed too😅 made it easy. The cats adjusted very easy so I know they were happy”


“Francis was so happy at Erin’s home, he wasn’t ready to leave when I came to get him! Erin was quick to respond to all of my messages and made me feel like Francis was in great hands. I’m so happy to see him this way and I’ll definitely be using Erin again!”


About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I love spending time walking, playing, and caring for them. I know every pup has their own personality, from silly, energetic zoomies to laid-back cuddle bugs, and I enjoy meeting them where they’re at. You can count on me to keep your dog happy, safe, and loved like one of my own! I’m currently working online while obtaining my master’s degree, which means I’m home and available throughout the day. I love taking outdoor breaks or quick walks for coffee, and I’d love to bring your pup along for some fresh air and exercise! My loft downtown is a safe, pet-friendly space where your dog can feel right at home. I don’t have pets of my own, so your pup will get my full attention. With a dog park just down the block, outdoor play and exercise are always part of our day!
