“This family is so kind and caring, and they took such great care of our dog for 9 days. We got pictures and updates daily that made us feel at ease being gone so long. Bruce and Kristin were so flexible and easy going, and we are so fortunate to have found them. We feel like we struck gold with this sweet family and look forward to using them again!”

“Super nice family and home with fenced yard. We needed someone on short notice due to a family emergency. Katie and Samuel offered to be flexible with our return date which we greatly appreciated. Juneau seemed to have done fine.”

“Emily was great. She had quick communication and accepted my booking fast. I needed my buddy boarded for a few hours the next day due to a job interview and didn't have many options. Emily had great communication and was easy to work with. I would recommend her to others in the future. I just hope Rudy treated her well.”
“First time staying with Christine, - our dog Toph felt right at home and we felt very safe leaving her while on vacation. Our dog had an incident right before we left so I definitely had some anxiety being away from her so shortly after. Christine updated us frequently and shared advice from her experience as a dog trainer/handler. Her dogs were wonderful playmates and allowed our dog to make new friends. Overall took excellent care and truly cared about our dog as if it were her own.”
“I would highly recommend Nicole. Her and her family where so great with Lacy. She keep me updated and had Lacy outside every day wish Lacy loves. I would definitely use Nicole in the future.”
“Sure! Here's a thoughtful review you can leave for Ryan and Martha: --- Ryan and Martha were absolutely wonderful with Yogi! From the start, their communication was excellent — clear, prompt, and always thoughtful. They made dropoff and pickup incredibly easy and were very flexible with the timing, which we really appreciated. Throughout Yogi’s stay, they sent us regular updates and the sweetest photos that clearly showed how happy and comfortable he was. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. You can tell they genuinely care about animals and treat them like part of the family. We would absolutely trust them with Yogi again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, responsible, and communicative pet sitters.”

“Sarah and Karl were great! Super communicative and always kept us up to date on how Sally was doing (with lots of pictures!) They were flexible with our drop off and pick up times as well due to the bad winter storms and weather. Sally looked like she had a blast and she’d love to visit again!”
“Mary and her family were absolutely wonderful sitters for Grizzy! They took great care of him during a cold snap, making sure he was warm and comfortable. Mary sent wonderful updates and absolutely adorable pictures, and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Julie was absolutely fantastic. She knows dog behavior very well and I completely trusted her with my 12 week old puppy who is very nervous. Julie went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was comfortable and well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

About: For 5 years, I’ve been caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I believe every pet deserves more than just basic care—they deserve attention, playtime, and plenty of exercise to keep tails wagging. I’m especially attentive to pets with special needs, making sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or extra snuggles, I treat every dog like part of my own family. I welcome pet care into my schedule pretty easily from the time I wake up until the last potty break of the night. I’m generally home all day and can be attentive to pets who require a lot of interaction. I have one 9 year old white Shepard who is very friendly , docile and gets along with all dogs. I live near many walking trails in a very walkable and dog friendly neighborhood, so frequent dog walks are easy. Your pet will be free to roam the house indoors and relax on my closed in deck.
“Absolutely loved Jodi and so did our dog, Maddie! Jodi took care of our elderly dog as if Maddie were her very own. I felt confident in her knowledge and passion for caring for small and or elderly dogs. Jodi sent us photos and texts frequently and really put us at ease.”

We have used her now for two family trips when we were out of town for an extended period of time, and we always joke that Milo our Labradoodle doesn't want to leave her! Milo has been a part of our family since the day he was born and means so much to us. The level of attention, care, and love that is given to him by Marla and her team is truly unmatched! We always know he is in great hands and we love getting a picture of him enjoying his time! Her whole process is stress-free and is amazing to not have to think twice about one thing on your to do list!”
