“Bruce was very communicative and loved our pups. They can be a bit hyperactive at times and Bruce handled them perfectly. Would highly recommend and will be booking again!”
“I recently had Jieun look after my dog and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to ensure Skippy was well cared for and comfortable. Skippy can be reserved with new people, but he quickly warmed up to Jieun. Communication was another standout aspect of the stay. I received regular updates and great photos of Skippy having a good time, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that Jieun genuinely cared about Skippy’s well-being. The level of attention and care Skippy received was outstanding. I highly recommend Jieun if you need someone to care for your pet. Skippy and I are both incredibly grateful for the exceptional stay!”
“Howard & Kathleen are an absolute delight. We never have to worry when our girls are with them. Our girls always come home happy and content....we have been using them for more than 5 years now, highly recommend!”
“Frida was well cared for and seemed to bond with Briana. This a huge accomplishment for our slightly skittish rescue dog. I Highly recommend Briana and her dogs for boarding.”
“Malik is a great Petsitter. I was worried about leaving my senior dog with him, but he offered a meet and greet and they were a match! Malik took good care of him, sent updates and was patient. I would definitely rebook!”
“Stephanie did an amazing job with my Otter while I was gone on my trip! She took him to a dog party and walked/hiked with him every day. I received tons of updates and pictures. If you are leaving town, leave your pup with Stephanie, she is awe-inspiring.”
“Jayme really helped us out with watching Diesel when we had to go away for a long weekend for a family wedding. I felt very comfortable knowing that Diesel was in good hands and that he had a yard to play around with. Jayme is very kind and sent several pictures of Diesel. Knowing that he was in someone’s loving home and not in a boarding facility put me at ease. I would recommend Jayme without hesitation for anyone who wants their dog to have a home away from home!”
“True dog lover, just the type of person you want caring for your fur baby! My dog was well cared for, pampered and loved. She was proactive contacting me with a concern about my dogs health, which I truly appreciated. Definitely can recommend and will book with her again.”
“Justin was amazing! He was able to come and do a meet-n-greet, pick Harley up, communicate and drop her off as planned. I received lots of pictures and videos throughout the stay. She was very happy and I'd be excited to have her stay with Justin again in the future.”

“Monique and Anthony have been absolutely fantastic! Our dog stayed with them for 11 days while we were gone and they kept us updated with photos and videos. We could clearly see how happy our dog was and we’ll definitely book them again. Highly recommend!”
“Mikayla and Justin were incredible! They took such great care of my GSP Goose and sent very detailed and organized updates on how he was doing and made sure to get him an ample amount of exercise everyday. He looked so happy! Also they were extremely understanding and flexible when I had to pick him up a little late due to my return flight getting delayed. Will definitely be using them again!”

“We needed Jasie because our usual person was not available. Jasie lives across the street from us and we didn’t even know that until Rover! We went away Friday night to Sunday night. Jasie was great, she sent pictures, texted any questions and cared for Cadie like we would. We are so happy we found her! Will use again!”
About: I work primarily from home throughout the week. This gives me the time needed to care for anyone's pet to ensure a safe, fun environment. I dog sat for 2 years prior to my new full time role. I have fostered dogs and now I have recently adopted my own. I love dogs and look to care for anyone's pet when you need it most. Please reach out to set up a meet and greet so I can be introduced to your family member and also visit my place to see if it is a suitable temporary environment for your pet. Thanks! Look forward to hearing from you. I am home most of the time and since I have a dog of my own, any pet will fit seamlessly into his routine as well. I'm sure my dog would love to make new friends as well! I live in a dog friendly community, dog park nearby, have a fenced courtyard, riverwalk in walking distance as well. I take my dog for at least one long walk (about an hour) per day and two other times aside from that. I make sure he doesn't eat any food scraps, anything from ground outside that could be harmful either. Smoke free and alcohol free home. Can also ensure any diet or food allergies are monitored appropriately.
