“Adrian was so kind and helped us out with a last minute booking due to death in our family. He took great care of our two border collies and stayed in communication with texts and pictures. We will definitely book again.”


“Wendy was outstanding. She was appropriately communicative and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. My dog was a bit anxious the first day and Wendy was patient and caring with him. Also, my plane got back late and Wendy was understanding. Cannot recommend highly enough”
“Tracy is the most thoughtful dogsitter, she kept me posted with photos and videos of my pup. My dog came home smiling from all of the fun she had with Tracy and her sweet dog.”

“Cristi took AMAZING care of our four dogs last weekend. We were getting married in Hocking Hills and last minute decided we should find someone to watch our dogs during the weekend. Cristi was extremely friendly and helpful. Not only did she keep all four of the dogs the entire weekend, she was also willing to pick up our dogs after our ceremony so we could have our little ones in our wedding :). It was such a relief to have our dogs so well cared for throughout the weekend and appreciate Cristi's flexibility with our schedules!!!”


“Bridget was wonderful for an overnight stay for Shelby. She was very communicative and sent many pictures and videos of her playing with and snuggling with Shelby. I would 1000% book with Bridget for any dog sitting needs!”

About: I've cared for my family's Shih Ztu ever since I was 8 years old. Throughout his 13 years of life, I've also cared for my brother's Yorkie, Lab, and Golden Retriever on multiple occasions!! Now, I have my own 6 month old puppy named Zeke💕 I'm currently a full-time college student doing this as a side job. Dogs bring me an unbelievable amount of joy and are a great way to relieve some stress from school!! If I'm ever needed inside of your home, I will treat it as though it is my own. I am very responsible and understand how to clean up after myself and your doggy!

“Madison and her sister were so great with our boys! Great back yard and we loved all the picture updates! No doubt in our minds that they were very loved and taken care of during our week vacation. So happy our boys now have a ‘home away from home’ :)”


“Deana was so sweet and you can tell she really loves dogs!! We got feedback and pictures every day with updates regarding how he slept, how he ate and how many walks they did. Her own dogs are very accepting of new visitors (both human amd canine) ? I would recommend Deana to anyone who needs their pet well taken care of like it was her own!”

“I know how scary it can be to leave your beloved pet with someone, but let me just say they will be in great hands with Schuyler!! She is professional, and cares deeply for dogs - as well as has a lot of knowledge about them and what different breeds need . I appreciated her prompt responses and communication with me , providing me all the updates I wanted while our dog Burrow stayed with her ! Would not hesitate to use her again in the future!”

Wendy takes the best care of my dogs! They are older dogs (10 and 15) and they would not do well in a boarding kennel. They stay at her house and get their daily walk, lots of attention, and great care. They feel right at home and that means a lot! Thank you Wendy!
