“Kathleen is an awesome communicator (sending a lot of pics and updates while we were away) and has such a beautiful/kind soul. She and our little Beo had plenty of walks and cuddles and we will be using her routinely as our sitter. She is the best!”


“Really appreciative of Richard for doing such a great job watching my dog Oscar while I was away. Richard was pleasant, his dogs were very friendly, and his home seemed like a great and safe environment for Oscar. Richard was kind enough to book with me right at the last minute and sent me photos and videos to update me during my trip. Definitely would recommend Richard to anyone looking to board their dog.”



“As always I feel so comfortable leaving my high anxiety dog with Victoria! I know she is in the best hands. I will continue to be a returning customer!!!”


“Our 8-yr old male Airedale sometimes has his own way of looking at things. We left him with Stacey, first time, and he did fine, even through a thunderstorm. They know what they are doing. Recommended sitters.”


“It was amazing to have Amy watch our dog! Drop off and pick up were very easy and convenient, and she was wonderful with our pretty anxious and nervous dog. She took great care of him and really went the extra mile in every way. Thanks, Amy!”


“THE BEST DOG SITTER EVER!! Rose watched our pup Nathan over the weekend and I will be exclusively user her in the future for any and all pet sitting. The room she has for her Rover guests is clean and very comfortable for dogs. Her two dogs Daisy and Whiskey are really nice and sweet pups and got along great with ours! Rose provided plenty of enrichment and playtime for Nathan and we did not worry at all while he was under her care. Everyday she made sure to update us and send photos which was super nice. Nathan even came down with tummy issues the day before our trip and Rose still accepted our sitting appointment and even got him better again! She has an amazing knowledge of pet nutrition and (after asking permission of course) fed him a diet to help his tummy! While doing this, she even recommended food that would be better suited for his size and type of dog. I’m so happy we found Rose and look forward to many more sitting appointments with her!”


“Patrick and Emily were fabulous! Zeke loved it there. They provided pics and updates and took very good care of our puppy while we were away! Highly recommended”


“The only dog sitter I will use from now on! Really cares about animals and send me frequent updates and pictures. From someone who has anxiety leaving their dogs I really was so happy having her watch our pup! Will be a frequent client :)”


“Why would I want to provide a positive review for Caitlin & Conor and ruined my chances of them being available when I need them to babysit Parker next time?! But the facts are they were terrific. They are definitely dog people. They communicated well and provided me daily updates with pictures and were so accommodating when I forgot to provide Parker’s food!”


“Our dogs were well taken care of over a weekend at Shannon and Steven's home! They were very communicative and based on all the photos, we know our dogs received the thing they crave the most = snuggles. We were thankful they were able to accomodate us in the mix with their 2x dogs. We'd definitely book with them again if Louie and Bess would allow it! ☺️”


“Kristina and Fletcher took great care of Norton. He was immediately at ease with them and they tolerated all his little quirks with affection! They communicated well, sent pics and updates, and Norton will definitely stay with them again given the opportunity.”


“Sierra always takes excellent care of Max! He has some separation anxiety and can be shy at times, but he is always very excited to see her when I drop him off. I can tell that he is very relaxed under her care and really enjoys all the snuggles and play time!”


“Brad was awesome! Tommy was definitely very well cared for during his stay. Sent daily updates with pictures! I never boarded my pup before and if I ever have to again I will be definitely using Brad!”


“Krista was great. She sent us updates and photos throughout the week to let us know how things were going. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”


About: I have had dogs my whole life. My first dog on my own as an adult is currently a senior. He is a very sweet and gentle dog who loves to play with new friends. I have about 10 years of experience, dog sitting friends and family members' dogs. I am comfortable working with food aggressive dogs, highly anxious dogs, and everyone in between. I am experience with administering medications, working with puppies and supporting senior dogs. I have a great track record with leash training, potty training and winning over anxious dogs. I use positive reinforcement (single ingredient dried pumpkin treats) to keep your pups attention and gain their trust. I am happy to do a meet and greet beforehand in order to gain your trust too :) I look forward to working with you! I currently work part-time, Monday, Wednesday, Friday 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. I am available for walks after 2:00 p.m. on those days and all day Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am available Monday through Friday for pet sitting, but will be out of the house for the hours of 8-1 MWF. My partner works from home, so if your dog need 24/7 care we can arrange that. As I mentioned in my bio, my main training mechanism is positive reinforcement. I do not believe in punishing dogs. In my experience it does not work and does not feel good! That being said, I am happy to work with you and come up with a plan together.

“Very grateful to Brittany and Pippin for caring for Lilah while we were away. Brittany sent photos daily, which I always appreciate, and Pippin kept her well occupied with lots of playtime!”


“Robert & Kaitlin were awesome! My dogs had a great time and it was so nice leaving them and not worrying about them! We got photos and updates. We will definitely be using them again soon - highly recommend!”


“Puppers came home happy and healthy, which is all I can ask! Joe has a great back yard and seems to have lots of puppy pals for my girls to play with. Always responsive, pics every day. Couldn’t ask for more - will definitely call on his services again!”

Casey S.
“Casey has been caring for my dogs and cats while I am away for years, and she has been exceptionally good with them. They always seem so happy when I pick them up, and I can have peace of mind that they are having fun, exercising, and being treated with respect when with Casey. I have a small dog with behavioral issues who can be difficult to find care for, and Casey meets him where he's at, respects his boundaries, and he LOVES her! This dog doesn't love anyone! Would highly recommend Casey.”
