“Cherie did a great job taking care of our dog Ruby! She was great about sending pictures and updates so we always felt like we were in the loop on Ruby’s care. Ruby came home tired from all the walks!”
“Valerie and family took great care of Hobie my dog. I've boarded him at two places that are kennel type over night with multiple dogs. He loves other dogs but he always came home stressed and once with kennel cough. Those stays it took him about two weeks to get back to normal. With his stay at Valerie's with only him he came home happy and healthy. Valerie communicated with me and sent pictures while he was at her house with her family. I highly recommend her!”
“I couldn’t be more grateful for Emily! I booked her last minute, and she went above and beyond in every way. She walked my dog daily, sent tons of updates and photos, and truly treated my dog like her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in such caring hands. I will absolutely be booking with her again—anyone would be lucky to have Emily watch their dogs!”

“This was our first time with a dog sitter and we were very nervous. Rosemarie did a really great job taking care of our dog and keeping in contact with us a few times each day. It was wonderful getting pictures and videos throughout the day. It was clear Rosemarie and her family cared for our dog and made sure she got a lot of exercise multiple times each day. She also did little unexpected extras that really made our dog’s stay extra special. We will definitely be seeking her services again in the future! Thank you Rosemarie!”
About: If you’re looking for someone dependable to drop in on your pup or take them out for some fresh air and exercise, I am here to help! Working from home gives me the unique ability to step away and dedicate my full attention to walking, check-in services, and boarding for your furry family members. Dogs have been the center of my family's world since we got our first puppy 25 years ago. After our beloved 14-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback passed away in January 2026, we realized just how much we missed the routine of caring for a dog. I love interacting with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Through fostering numerous puppies, I have mastered the art of leash training and high-energy play. Furthermore, because our own dog was deaf and lived to a ripe old age, we are uniquely equipped to provide gentle, specialized care for elderly or disabled dogs during drop-ins, walks, and some boarding. I promise to bring peace of mind with plenty of updates and love! Working from home full-time Monday through Friday gives me incredible flexibility throughout the week. Because my desk is just a few steps away, I am able to seamlessly structure my day around your dog's needs—taking regular, dedicated breaks to provide refreshing neighborhood walks, interactive playtime, and frequent outdoor potty rests. Your pup will enjoy consistent companionship and routine care without me ever having to leave the house for an office commute. I live in a rambler with a walk-out basement and a large yard. We live near a couple of parks, and I love taking the dogs for walks.

My dogs clearly enjoyed themselves and I appreciated getting daily updates with photos. Two of my dogs can be fussy and particular about meals and that was handled well. I felt a high level of comfort in leaving my dogs with them and it helped me enjoy my trip so much more. I will definitely book again without hesitation.

Janel & Michelle were wonderful with Zen! While I was away, I got pictures of Zen out for a walks, sunbathing in sun rays, and getting snuggles in bed. I was told there were zoomies around the house as well! Zen had a good time and I had peace of mind during my vacation knowing he was well taken care of. Thank you so much!
