Living near parks and trails provides ample opportunities for enriching outdoor activities. You can trust your pet will receive dedicated, safe, and loving care.


“Jeff is more than a dog walker….he’s a dog whisperer. Henry learned so much in a matter of hours. If you are willing to be open to Jeff’s suggestions, even the most experienced dog owners will learn something new…getting a fresh perspective on handling our 150lb Great Dane pup was well worth the time! Thank you Jeff!”


“Thank you for the last minute booking, Leo loved it!”


“I found out the day before that I needed a sitter for my 8 month old, yet to be neutered, tank of a puppy, Apollo. Having previously left him with only family members, and only a handful of times, we were a little nervous. When we first got there, Apollo immediately seemed to feel comfortable, not even looking back at me. I received photos a few hours in, and when it was time to pick him up, Apollo was trying to climb into a lap (he’s 75 lbs), and was being praised as a love, cuddle bug! Overall positive, seamless experience and I would book again.”


“We first met Alyssa during a meet and greet with our dog, Molly. Coming from a rescue center with a difficult past, Molly can be a bit challenging. We’ve been showering her with love, and Alyssa immediately connected with her energy. Throughout the day, she kept us updated with messages and photos, which we truly appreciated. Alyssa, thank you! We’re looking forward to Molly staying with you next weekend.”



“Gen was great! Super responsive, awesome fenced in back yard and really sweet dogs that Casey had a blast with. Will definitely use Gen again when we need someone to watch Casey. Thanks!!”


“Melissa was easy to work with when I scheduled my booking with her. My dog Holly Berry seemed happy and content during her stay with Melissa. I will definitely book again with Melissa.”


“Jerol and Jeffrey took great care of my pups. Everyday the pups were excited to go and reluctant to leave. The enclosed back yard, walks, attention given met all my expectations. I cannot say enough good things about the experience! I highly recommend them and am looking forward for another doggie day care!!!”


“Maryann was great with Taylor. She walked her twice and hopefully my pup played with hers.”


“Korin was great and so flexible when I had a last-minute change in schedule. She took care of my 5-month old puppy and was understanding of her needs at that age. She fed, walked and played with my puppy and my pup was happy after her stay.”

About: NOW BOOKING SUMMER 2025 I enjoy spending time with pets as i've had a variety over the years. My dog passed away in may of 2025 so getting to spend some time with others’ makes me happy. from puppy to senior, they will be cared for with so much love and as my own. { note: tips are greatly appreciated! } I am a mom of 2 and currently am staying home. i take this job very seriously and care for my clients pets as my own. i have a fenced yard on both sides. dogs are outside every 2 hours for potty and play time. emergency local vet less than 5 minutes away from my house. pictures are always provided upon request.

About: I've experience with large breed dogs with medical conditions as well as elderly dogs. I am also able to administer medications if necessary during your pet's stay. I currently work from home four days out of the week so your pet will never be home for long. I've a large backyard with plenty of space to play and we also go on walks during lunch when the weather permits. I am a true animal lover having owned various animals over the years. Most recently I parented an English Mastiff, Jackson who's crossed the rainbow bridge and Monet, a 6-year-old Cane Corso who I've had for the last year. We live in a Ranch on a half-acre so there are no stairs for older/injured pups and plenty of space for your them to exercise and play. I work from home also, and love my daily lunchtime walks. My home is also very pet friendly so they are welcome to hop on the couch and snuggle if they'd like. Over the last 20 years I've cared for various breeds both small and large with all manner of personalities. I've sat for family and friends with various breeds from Great Danes to Pomeranians. I've even sat for a boar before. My Jackson suffered from a heart condition and bladder stones, so I am experienced with caring for senior pets and pets with medical conditions that may require medications administered. If there are any special requirements your baby needs I look forward to working with you to accommodate them as best we can. During your absence I want your pet to feel as stress-free and safe as possible and with me your fur babies will be well cared for and loved like my own. In order to provide them with the best care, I do think an in-person meet-and-greet is beneficial for getting acquainted.

About: Hello loving pet parents! I’m an animal lover with 16 years experience and lots of love to give. I'm 42 and been a fur loving lady since I walked neighborhood dogs as a child. In my adult life, I WORK FROM HOME part time in freelance marketing and spend the other half of my time volunteering with animal rescue groups working in various areas such as general animal care, animal rescue placement and animal rights legislation. This has been a passion of mine for many years. Why do I say PLUS? Bc i’ve completed training in dog walking as well as dog nutrition. Through this I've gained an extensive education about animals (dogs in particular) as well as some behavioral training/ training for efficient walks. I also have a lot of experience with anxious dogs through working in animal rescue/ fostering. I understand the extra care required for dogs that have had troubled past. We had a second dog we rescued after she was abandoned…Buttercup but sadly lost her a couple months ago to a battle with cancer. I know how hard it is to be able to find people you can trust to care for your pets so I'd love to be that person for some of you. I live with my boyfriend Patrick who also works from home and is also a dog lover. We're both looking forward to hosting some furry friends. Some info about our home: 2 bedroom/ 2 bathroom one floor apartment inside a quiet development. Across from my apartment there are 2 fenced in dog parks but also quiet streets for walking which im happy to do depending on your dogs needs. Our dog buttercup loved long walks throughout the entire development as opposed to Sonny who just likes to go to the park to do his business then come straight home so I fully understand that every pup is different. There is also an entire woods across the road with paths through it. When I've watched friends dogs in the past they have really enjoyed taking scenic walks through there. I say luxury not bc I live in a fancy house but because I will provide extra care and comfort such as the following: - 4 different texture/ size dog bed options, all freshly cleaned - access to full sectional couch, one full size bed in spare room that is low to the ground/ convenient for dogs lounging - Air purifier and dehumidifiers: I find also helps dogs breathing while they sleep - 6 different treat. options upon owners approval - Enrichment toy options - Long walk options, walk training upon request - Homemade meals upon request - Pawdicure upon request: paw cleaning, coconut oil paw massage, nail trim - Crochet accessory: I crochet as a hobby and like to make collars or bandanas as gifts for pets to leave with. There are examples in photos 🐾🙂 Pet care has always been a big part of my life. I work in freelance marketing from home so have projects from time to time but other than that I focus on my dogs and giving them the best life as well as my animal rescue work. After losing a pet recently, I have even more time and nothing would make me happier than to spend it caring for other loved furry family members. The development I live in has 2 dog parks and one is right across the street from my apt. There are also walking trails in the woods across the street as well as many paths through the development that make for very nice long walks. I am flexible depending on your dogs needs and have walked/ cared for all types of dogs from highly reactive to special needs dogs who need walking assistance. I am also trained in pet CPR and efficient walking. I also incorporate enrichment toys into my dogs daily lives and would be happy to offer the same to your pets. Currently we have one dog at home, Sonny who is 16 years old but very healthy for his age. He is very calm and good with other dogs, mostly keeps to himself. I have a local animal emergency center should any issues arise, it is 10 minute away.
