“My dog Frankie has loved being at Jen’s house. She knows how to care for dogs, and all of the dogs seem to play well together. She has nice indoor and outdoor spaces for them, and her communication is really good. It’s nice to get picture/video updates during the day, too.”
“Ellen is so patient & understanding with my fearful dog. I drop my dog off with a wagging tail which says a lot! I am so grateful for her & her availability and communication.”
“My first booking with Amy and my dog, Buggy, had an amazing day! Walk to the park, fetch, splashing in some water, nap and some indoor games. I have more setup and get to know my dog won’t be stressing :)”
“Carrie is the best! Bear was well taken care of and had so much fun with Willow!! Bear was 100% comfortable going there each day! Thank you, Carrie & Willow - we’ll see you soon!”
“Best sitters ever! Couldn’t recommend Karen and Ryan enough. Lambo absolutely LOVES when he goes over to their house and gets the wiggles every time he see them. Just proves how much they care for your dog like their own. They’re very flexible with my schedule and I can’t appreciate that enough.”
“June is always super excited to be dropped off to play with Mckenzie and her dogs! Mckenzie has been wonderful with our 5 month old pup and its been so reassuring to leave June with someone who we know loves dogs as much as we do and also has the skills and knowledge on managing different ages and varying dog’s behaviors! She is very communicative and prompt with her replies and she has always been loving and patient with our dog!”
“Walter had a great day with Jie. Appreciated the pics and photos to ease my first day nerves. I can feel the love and kindness that went toward Walter. Looking forward to more days with Jie!”
“Bethany was THE BEST person for my dog. She has a very lovely home that is tidy and has created such a calming and welcoming vibe. Throughout the sit, she would keep me informed on what was going on and reassured my anxieties of leaving my dog with her. She listens and respects any of your requests. I could tell my dog had a lovely time with her because by the time I came to pick him up, he was hesitant to leave, which all the good signs that he felt at home. If I'm ever in the area again, Bethany would ultimately be my first choice. Thank you Bethany for all you've done to help my dog feel like it was another home and friend to visit.”
“It was my 3 month old puppy’s first time at doggy daycare and Lydia made me feel very comfortable leaving my puppy alone for the whole day with Lydia’s own puppies and other dogs she was taking care of. She also took pictures to update me on my puppy. Will definitely book Lydia again.”
“We would highly recommend Brianna! She sent us several pictures and updates of how Odin was doing and he obviously enjoyed his day with her. We will certainly use her for daycare again.”
“This was my first time leaving Atticus with a sitter on River and it couldn’t have been a better experience! She was so great at updating us and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. We will absolutely be asking Gabbi to watch Atticus again!”
“Patti is great! She is very responsive, gives photos and updates of cute things the dogs do, she has a nice yard, and my pup loves to play with hers. My dog always pulls to get to Patti’s front door and has a blast playing all day long.”
About: We just said goodbye to our 12 year old lab. We are not ready to adopt again but need a dog in the house! Your dog will be spoiled by our family (we have two boys-3 and 5), spend lots of time in our fenced yard, play at the dog park, and get lots of snuggles. We are a homeschooling family, so we are around the house most of the time. My boys and I are in and out of the house throughout the day, but because we homeschool, we are home a lot! We spend most of our time outside in our yard or hiking the Minnehaha Dog Park. We have a fenced in yard and home that is used to having a dog. Our boys are loving, gentle, respectful, and playful with dogs. Dogs are welcome to be on our furniture and live comfortably in our house!
“Upon the meet and greet I knew my hound harper would be in good hands: Andrea took great care of Harper. It is a huge relief to know I’ve got a place to drop her off at when I need to and don’t have to worry about her.”
About: I've had dogs my whole life and adopted my own two years ago. I'm extremely active and I've been taking dogs for runs, hikes, walks, and jogs since grade school. I'm prepared for any situation we might encounter on the trails, and I'm so excited to take your dog on an adventure! I'm available all week! I work odd jobs, so if a time doesn't work, I'll let you know, but I will love to add you to my schedule. I share a large and cozy studio apartment with a mellow and friendly four-year-old Labradoodle named Rufus. It's located in a large apartment complex that boasts a fenced-in play area and is close to plenty of walking trails.
“Thank you, Susan. Your love for dogs really shines through. 😊 You were able to make a positive connection with Tia quickly. I appreciate all the love and attention you gave her while I was away.”
“Deanna is so welcoming to both me and my pet! I have been delighted with her care and communication. It makes all the difference in the world to leave my pet with a kind, caring, fun person and home and that's Deanna! My dog, Foxy, runs right up to her and comes back with a smile and signs of a fun day! Thanks, Deanna!!”
