Pet care experience

*Please note we are not accepting any bookings less than 2 nights* (except day care and existing clients) 20+ years of experience in petsitting and boarding. Pet first-aid and CPR certified. Born and raised in Wilmington, Amy attended BHS and Goldey-Beacom College. Cathy is a retired teacher. We host dogs in our North Wilmington home (fenced yard), or Amy can come to you. It's not unusual that Cathy is watching 2-4 dogs at our house, while I stay at someone's home. We have 1 dog ourselves, a female lemon beagle named Sammie, who is wonderful with visitors. Many references available! We treat your pets like they were our own. Our house is filled with water bowls, dog beds, treats, and lots of love. Pets are welcome to sleep in the human bed, in crates, or dog beds. We require a meet and greet before any boarding or sitting takes place. Please note we have a hard weight limit of 30 pounds per pet. We look forward to meeting you and your fur baby!

Cathy and Amy were wonderful and took great care of our Doggo! They are super friendly and create and joyful environment for the visiting dogs. As soon as I heard my dog was relaxed in the dog bed outside the bedroom and the kitchen I knew we found great sitters for our dog:)
