Michelle was amazing with our 1 year old Lab and we knew she was in good hands for the holiday weekend as soon as we met her! She most definitely is a dog lover, great with communication, sent wonderful pictures and provided welcome feedback. We will most certainly use her again next time we are in her area.

Morgan and her family took excellent care of Flynn and were flexible when our plans changed due to unanticipated circumstances. Loved the photos of Flynn playing with Willow, their dog. We would definitely book again.

Sonya is wonderful. She kept me updated on my doggo and how he was doing during his stay. He was well cared for and had friends to play with. He seemed to really enjoy his time there and I loved how experienced Sonya is with dogs. She really knows what she’s doing and I’m looking forward to booking with her again.

Cindy was amazing. I wish we lived closer so we could used her all the time. We told her our dog had accidents and she was very understanding and accommodating. She has a nice back yard and let our dog our often. We could tell our dog was very loved when we came back to pick her up.

Heather was great with our dog, Rosie! She sent picture updates each day and gave our dog plenty of exercise. It gave us so much peace of mind to know Rosie was taken care of while we were away--hope we can book with you again, Heather! Thanks for everything.

About: Being raised on a dairy farm I’ve been around all sorts of animals, big and small. From kittens, chickens, calves, dogs to full size cows I have done it all. I’m a proud owner of two pure bred English Mastiffs, we just whelped our first ever litter of pups! I’m looking to fill spare time in my day doing what I love most! I have always had so much love for all animals. Let me help you by loving your fur babies while you are busy! I’m available almost all the time. Currently I’m a stay at home mom caring for my 3 year old and 2 gentle giants. Weekdays, weekends, nights or mornings, I can be there for you! I have a very large yard(field) and two gentle giants to keep your babies content and happy. Look forward to a clean, exercised and fed pup when you get home! I have a giant crate also if needed.

We pride ourselves on personal attention given to your fur babies and adventures outdoors. We currently have one golden retriever who is three years old as of December 2024.

I am available for puppy attention, overnight and long-term care for dogs that are vaccinated and treated for flea and tick. We are busiest in the winter months with personal sports, and open to adventures throughout the year/day with animals included. We have a safe environment. I do keep our bedroom doors closed. If there’s anything else you’d like to know, please don’t hesitate to ask. Currently our pets are cared for not crate trained. Ing is an option however. I offer daily walks and multiple catch and throw opportunities daily.

About: I have been fostering for almost 10 years and have taken care of cats, dogs and horses growing up my whole life. I am familiar with giving meds and special needs for dogs and cats as well. I am working part time to spend more time with my kids and dogs and my kids also love new companions we take in and care for. I have just been wanting to care for more animals in my area. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dobermans and a doberdoodle. They are all dog and kid friendly. My dogs are vetted and up to date on everything. My dobermans are the reason I started fostering as they love new friends! My doberdoodle was my foster fail that I love dearly. I do have a couple kennels but if your dog does better with no kennel I do that as well!

Audrey was wonderful! We were in a bind last minute and she saved us. Audrey is very responsive, sent pictures of our boy and put my mind at ease. It can be so challenging finding care you trust for your pets but I would absolutely recommend Audrey and would use her again in the future.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds and sizes of animals since a very young age, I love spending my time outdoors all year round no matter the weather! I’ve always had a passion for not just dogs but all types of animals and will continue to always believe animals are better than people.🤍 I’m currently home full time Monday through Sunday (with the exception of appointments, shopping, etc.) and am available from morning to night and even overnight stays! If I care for your fur/scaled/feathered baby in your home I will follow all rules and protocols given to me, as well as spend as much time with them as I possibly can!
