Loving Pet Care by a Retired RN

"As a retired Registered Nurse, caregiving is in my DNA. I’ve loved and lived with dogs my entire life, and I treat every pet like family. I have decades of hands-on experience with daily feeding, active walking, and—drawing on my professional background—safely administering medications. For years, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to give their beloved pets the highest level of care, safety, and affection."

Denise and Bob were fantastic dog sitters for my pup Sadie. She has tons of energy and they show her love and care. Highly recommend them for overnight stays!

Denise was super communicative leading up to our reservation. She treated Sadie like one of her own and we will definitely use her again!

Absolutely fantastic person! Was able to book on short notice and was super kind and accommodating. Was super good with my dog from the beginning and really put me at ease at drop off. Made sure to update me on my baby about halfway through the stay. 10/10 would use again.
