“I can't imagine a better person to leave our Parker Boy with! Heather took the best care of our dog and sent pictures and videos to keep our minds at ease while we were apart from him. She made him feel like a part of the family and made sure to do whatever she could to make him comfortable. We would recommend Heather to anyone looking for a sitter for their furry friends!!”

“It’s so cute to see my Chaseypoo interact with Amia and Joshua, the kids and their pups. They adore her and she comes home happy and tired and ready for a nap.”

“Alicia was great. My puppy just got spayed recently and needed to take meds to help with recovery and she was able to administer them as scheduled which made me feel at ease. She was great with her and I would definitely use her service again”

“Omg!!! I’m so happy I found Sheree! I’m a nervous Nancy when I have to leave Oreo. He enjoyed himself fully. Sheree sent plenty of pictures and kept me informed of his day. The stay also was beneficial to Oreo to help him be more socialized. He will be back…very soon.”

“This was my first time sending my baby with someone out of family and friends and what a wonderful experience!! Doris was kind and accommodating with my schedule. My furry baby fell in love with her, her baby and the space!! He didn't want to leave, even if he was happy to see me...he wanted US to stay. He has been moping all day from the hour car ride home to seeing his bed, toys, yard and Daddy...he really enjoyed himself there. I will ALWAYS book with Doris if we have to go anywhere. The only negative...I chose someone that was quite a distance from me...I would love to do weekly play dates!! Thank you for your kindness, pictures and updates Doris, we all appreciate it!!!”

“Laura was very accommodating most especially when I asked for an additional night. She would give me an update about how my dogter was doing and she even sent me a photo of my dogter. Thank you Laura for taking good care of Bimby. Till next time. 🌹”

“Dan and Monica are such wonderful people and so kind to your animal while they are watching yours. They made us feel so comfortable and they shared plenty of pictures which made us feel so happy while we were away. Would love to use them again in the future!”

“Mariel was great and gave me updates on my dog, who can be easily excitable, in a timely manner. I don’t leave her very often if at all, so it was nice to have a trustworthy person looking after her.”

Kayla O.

“I can’t recommend Nicole enough! She was extremely communicative and it was very obvious how great of a dog mom she is. I felt so happy knowing my baby was in her care. Moose had the best time!”

About: I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, including dog walking, boarding, and pet sitting. My background in dog training allows me to confidently care for pets of all temperaments. I’ve worked with everything from dogs and cats to farm animals, and I treat every pet like family—focused on safety, routine, and lots of love. My schedule is very open and flexible, so I’m able to provide pet sitting, drop-ins, and dog walks at times that work best for you, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and last-minute needs. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours. I follow your pet’s routine closely—including feeding, walks, playtime, and any training cues—so they feel comfortable and secure. With my background in training, I’m attentive to behavior, body language, and individual needs to ensure a happy, stress-free experience.

“Juliana boarded my cat Pistachio for a few days. Everything went great. She sent pictures throughout and drop off and pickup were quick and painless. Will definitely book her services again.”

Arvin L.

“Niyah did a really good job with my dog Lady. Niyah sent me pictures of Lady daily to show me that Lady was okay. Niyah was responsive when I reach out to her and she replied immediately to all of my text messages. Lady returned home happy and she was returned back to me in the same condition I left her. If I need a dog sitter in the future I would leave Lady with her again. Thank you Niyah for taking care of Lady with short notice during the Holiday.”

About: People say you can not teach an old dog new tricks but I have. I have taught my rescue many tricks and currently training her to be a service dog. I taught by granddog how to do bang (pretend dead) in just 3 days. So if you want help on them learning tricks I am your gal! I am hybrid so I work from home on certain days and will be available to watch your fur baby. I regularly take them out for walks, potty breaks, car rides, and pup cup adventures. I have a cage if needed however I have several dog beds, toys, and treats. However feel free to bring your own. If a feeding is needed please provide their food. My dog is not food aggressive but for safety I will separate them while eating just in case.

“Curly loved his stay with Emma & Timothy. It was a last minute reservation so I was grateful to have such accommodating hosts. Communication was awesome. 5/5.”

About: I treat everyone like family. Your pets will be cared for like my pets- you will be treated like family. I love animals, I have owned two puppies- one currently. I am active, loving, and caring with all animals. I will be detail oriented about all aspects of caring for your animals. I am currently a stay at home dog mom. I love being active but it’s hard to leave your pup at home alone, so I want more ways to do it with him while helping others and socializing him. I have a very open schedule and usually can fit in same day requests:) I already have a pet proofed home so your pets will be safe with me. They will have a bin of toys to choose from, treats (if allowed) to choose from, and lots of love. If I am in your home, know that I am trust worthy and respectful. I will ask lots of questions to make sure I am respecting all aspects of your property and pet. Either way, your pet will get lots of love and attention from me.
