“Kim was AMAZING! She took care of our dog Peppers in her home for several days and sent daily pictures and updates, which we SO appreciated! She was also very flexible and accommodating with our schedule as we were traveling. Our dog enjoyed playing with her dog and seemed to have a very fun time with personal attention while he was there. He came home very happy and tired! When my husband picked up our dog she had packed his things nicely and even gave us a treat bag and card. We are so thankful to have found her and look forward to booking with her again!”
“We had a wonderful boarding experience with Lael. Communication was great, with just the right amount of pictures, videos, and check-ins. She truly treated our dog, Maddie, like one of the family. We could tell Maddie was happy and well cared for while she was there, which gave us so much peace of mind. Maddie loved playing outside with her 2 dogs! We would definitely book with her again!”
“Jennifer is wonderful! Our sweet Lola gets a little stressed anytime we leave her somewhere, but I can tell that she much prefers when I leave her with Jennifer and comes home much less stressed. Our pup ate an entire corn cob a few days before her stay, and she was wonderful about keeping an eye on her potty breaks and eating, providing regular updates. We'll be booking again!”
“Ashley was just absolutely amazing! If I could give her 10 stars, I 100% would! She really went above and beyond taking care of our girl! We really enjoyed the consistent check-ins and pictures and appreciate the extra time she took to let us know how Harley was doing while we were away! I was so thrilled that she actually seemed to take the time to get to know our fur baby and treated her like one of her own! This was our first time boarding Harley, but Ashley made it so smooth and stress-free! Would definitely recommend and will be booking with her again in the future!”
“Bogey and Birdie made themselves right at home at Gretchen’s. We can tell they got lots of TLC from her entire family. Communication was great and we received fun pictures and updates.”
“Megan was fantastic, great to communicate with and took great care of our dog Bob, we couldn’t be happier. Thank you to Megan and her family, we’ll definitely rebook if in the region!”
“Olivia was fantastic! She is extremely kind, communicates clearly, and flexible with changes. We had a few changes with our schedule, and she was so nice about it and took care of things. She sent us pictures and videos of our dogs while we were away. They had a great time, and I felt like they were so safe in her hands. I’ll definitely take them back again ?”
“Sydney was so amazing and accommodating with our dog Sally. She wrote us very thoughtful and thorough updates and sent lots of pictures. Sally came back relaxed and happy. Highly recommend!”
“Brooke was wonderful and our dog seemed to enjoy her time with her! We received at least daily updates with pictures and videos. We plan to rebook with her the next time we’re out of town!”
“Brooke is super sweet and did a great job working with our nervous puppy. He loved being there with her. She also kept us updated with pictures and videos every day and notes on how he was doing. We will be using Brooke on a regular basis.”
“Gerrard was and is an amazing sitter! He took care of my fur baby girl like family. Kept me updated with pictures/messages. I will definitely keep using him as my regular sitter for my fur baby!!”
“Taylor was able to fit us in last weekend to take care of our dog!! She was so communicative and friendly and great to work with! Our dog had a lot of fun at her place with her dogs and kids!!”
“Ashleigh was great with all aspects of our dog's stay. Great communication before and during the stay along with pictures of how our dog was doing. Lucy was comfortable with Ashleigh and her home, and we look forward to using her again!”
“We had to go out of town last minute and Tracy was quick to respond to our messages. She even offered for a meet and greet even though it was such short notice. She was so kind and our pup Churro had such a fun time at her place with her two dogs. We are so happy we found her and we will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Dylan was great! I was very nervous leaving one of my pups as it was her first time being away from us. She did very well and Dylan sent us updates daily. My pups didn’t want to leave when I picked them up! Highly recommend Dylan for your boarding stays.”
“Anne watched my dog over a recent weekend, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. My dog can be a bit timid and struggles with some separation anxiety, but Anne was wonderful with her. She kept me updated with pictures and videos showing my dog calm, comfortable, and getting along beautifully. It gave me a lot of peace of mind, and I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my dog with Anne again anytime.”
“Emily and her family are so sweet! She wanted the dogs to get acquainted with her before the stay, but I didn't have the time. Still, I appreciated the gesture. She was also very open to my schedule and was willing to watch my dogs at a very early time. She frequently gave me updates and photos which was a bonus. Would definitely come back to have her watch over Haru and Kobi again! ? A++++ experience.”
“Mallory was great. She gave us plenty of updates and it seemed my pups didn't want to go home. One of my dogs had to be pushed out the door when I picked them up from their stay. Will definitely use Mallory again.”
About: When dogs are with me they are family! When I worked in the grooming salon, I discovered my passion with dogs. I have taken online courses in Pet Safety and First Aid. Pet sitting allows me to continue my passion while still being available to my family. I do require that dogs are updated on their rabies vaccines and are good with small kids. I do not accept aggressive breeds. I have 2 dog of my own. I have a 5 year old Border Collie named Maizy and a 6 yr old Shiba Inu. I currently do not do overnight stays where I stay with your pets in your home, but they are welcome overnight at mine if needed. Most of my services are provided as a check in at your home or you can bring them to my home. If you need cat sitting it would have to be a check in at your home. No reptiles. I look forward to getting to know you and you fur babies! Thank you in advance for choosing me to be your friendly neighborhood pet sitter! I’m home during the day with a flexible schedule that allows me to give your fur baby lots of attention and walks weather they cone to my house or I go visit yours. I have a fenced in yard where your baby can run and play! I am to play fetch and set up a doggie/ kiddie pool for those hot summer days! When in a clients home I will feed, walk and play with your pet.

Dylan was great! He explained his home setup and how he runs things and how he gives each dog the time they need to adjust to new surroundings! He sent pictures and kept us updated on our dog’s stay and accommodated us even when we picked up early! Definitely would recommend!
I could not be happier with my boarding experience with Ashleigh and Colby. I have only had my Doxie for a couple months and I've had challenges with him. I was worried he might have an issue with their adorable little dog, but things went so well right off the bat. They have a wonderful little country-ish place with a nice fenced in area that dogs can get out and roam a bit. I had a really great feeling with both of them... a great combination of being welcoming and strong with my dog, complete attention to him. I felt very good about them wanting to know details, and asking the right questions and also listening to me. Ashleigh messaged me several times with updates and pics and her communication and attention to details was really great. I plan on trying to use them again in a couple weeks and could not recommend them more. You can feel great about using them to watch and love on your dog. SIX stars... not five.
Ashley was just absolutely amazing! If I could give her 10 stars, I 100% would! She really went above and beyond taking care of our girl! We really enjoyed the consistent check-ins and pictures and appreciate the extra time she took to let us know how Harley was doing while we were away! I was so thrilled that she actually seemed to take the time to get to know our fur baby and treated her like one of her own! This was our first time boarding Harley, but Ashley made it so smooth and stress-free! Would definitely recommend and will be booking with her again in the future!
Brad was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!! I have a dog that is a bit timid and skittish. Brad sent several texts with pictures of her while she was there and she looked very content. She was served great meals and had many walks. I would highly recommend Brad and will certainly be using his services in the future.
