“Kathleen is our go to dog sitter! She is always so flexible with drop off and pick up times. She sends pictures and videos to keep us up to date. I know my dog loves her time with Kathleen and I feel good that she has a warm, welcoming, safe home to stay in when we go away.”

“Richard is the best! We no longer feel guilty taking trips without our dog Boo knowing that he has the best time at Richard’s. Richard always sends daily pictures and is very communicative, so we never have to worry about our baby.”


“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”


“My "girls" had a great experience with Maria & Tony. Maria was quick to respond when I inquired about staying with them. She also sent many updates along with pictures of their stay. Tony was punctual picking up the girls as well as dropping them off. Charlee and Rosie seemed to really enjoy the yard and getting to meet the other pups. I highly recommend Maria and Tony. We will definitely have our girl;s stay with them again in the future.”


“Stacey was wonderful. She was very responsive, when I asked a question before my pup’s stay and during. Also sent plenty of pictures and just totally felt comfortable leaving our furry family member with her for a full week!”


“Emily and Patrick were very kind and flexible with us when my boyfriend and I needed a dog sitter for a wedding. We were late picking her up and they were very understanding. Our dog and Eli must have had a blast together, because slept the entire next day! We will be using them again in the future!!”


“Great communication, easy drop off and pick up, affordable rate, and our dog seemed very happy and comfortable to be. I think our dog loved pal’ing around with Chang’s friendly pup Valley because she came home completely tired out. Would definitely recommend and rebook.”


“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!”


“Devin and Tim are amazing!! Our dog Balto enjoyed every minute of his stay and really enjoyed their dog Luna. Luna made Balto feel right at home and kept him busy playing during his stay. They send pictures and kept us updated throughout his stay. Would highly recommend Devin and Tim!!”


“It was our first time boarding our pup and Trent and his wife were awesome. Super accommodating when I asked to meet prior to booking. They sent me pictures and videos everyday which helped ease my mind. Potato had the best time and was very well cared for. Will definitely use Trent again in the future for boarding needs!”



“This was our second practice sleep over before our trip. Pam kept us updated with photos and informed us how well Mando was doing. It was just what we needed to know how comfortable and happy Mando will be during our upcoming trip.”



“All I can say is WOW! We are SO lucky to have found Jeannine and her family. Lazlo, our almost 7 month Vizsla, spent 2 days (including an overnight) with Jeannine and he LOVED it. Jeannine was wonderful, answered questions so quickly in the booking process, and sent us lots of photos and updates each day. She has a great set up and is so sweet and professional. I’m so glad we found someone who is reliable and as wonderful as Jeannine. Lazlo can’t wait to stay again!!!”


“We had great experience with Jena and Nick. Dexter received lots of love, personal attention, playtime, daily walks. Their pet Sebastian was a very nice dog and became great buddy of Dexter in a short time. They have a very nice and clean fenced backyard too. Dexter really enjoyed his time with Jena, Nick and Sebastian… We really appreciate their effort in making sure Dexter felt it at home…Thank you Jane, Nick and Sebastian for being so lovely to Dexter.”



“Willow's second stay with Ruth was a success! Willow immediately went to her to say hello when we arrived, so she remembered her favorably, and when we were leaving Willow went to her to say goodbye. Willow loves staying with Ruth!”


“Liza and her family took great care of Mitsy for us. Liza was pleasant to work with and she sent pup updates with photos regularly. Mitsy had a blast on her visit! We will definitely book again.”


About: I have two Aussies that love to play with other dogs. The 2 year old has been trained and the 7 month old is going to weekly classes with me doing the daily training. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I do have an enclosed deck for dogs that don’t want to run. I can also leash walk I am home almost 24/7 to give your pet full time care. If I cannot be outside getting that dog energy ,out I use my garage for play I have five acres to roam if you’re pet can be off leash. I can do on leash walking many times a day. I am always keeping my dogs current on there training which includes leash walking in our yard as well as in public

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and absolutely love caring for animals. In high school, I worked at a local boarding and day care facility in my hometown in New York, helping care for both dogs and cats. I’ve also watched pets for family and friends over the years, gaining experience with all ages and temperaments. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! I’m a teacher, so during the summer I have lots of availability and spend a lot of time at home with family, friends, and my own dog. During the school year, my availability is a bit more limited. I’m happy to customize care based on your dog’s needs, including limiting activity to one level if that’s best for them. If your dog is used to a crate, I can include that to help them feel comfortable and secure. Daily walks are part of the routine to keep your dog active and engaged. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I always keep dogs on a leash to ensure their safety while outside. We also have one friendly dog at home who’s great company and would love to keep your fur baby company too.
