“My dog Eddie just had his first experience with Brandi, and I can’t say enough good things! I had to take a trip on short notice, and I was a bit nervous about leaving my dog, with someone new. But Brandi made everything so easy. Her communication was fantastic—she kept me updated and sent some great pictures of Eddie having a blast. Eddie got to play with her dog and another pup, and I’m sure he loved having the cats around too! He even got in on a little football action, which he loves. It was clear he made some new friends, and seeing him so happy was comforting. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about pets, I highly recommend Brandi. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again.”
“I'm so happy that I found Lauren to watch Shifty. She sent photos and videos of my pup having a blast daily. I felt safe on my vacation knowing that Shifty was also having a vacation. Lauren treated her like she was a part of her own family. I will definitely call her again whenever I go out of town!”
“Leslie was a wonderful sitter for Lola. We have used her twice and she will continue to be our go-to whenever we're in Guernville. She has a great house perfect for dogs and she was incredibly easy going. Would highly recommend!”
“Our XL dog had a wonderful stay. He was so well cared for and I loved that he got to spend his vacation with three kiddos as well. Such a wonderful family! Very grateful that they took him in as their own for our little getaway!!”
About: Walks through Armstrong Redwoods are a favorite activity. I have a large yard and a dog friendly house. I have a couple of years experience working in a veterinary clinic giving me experience medicating animals, including giving injections. I have a pool for dogs who love to swim! I was a volunteer and puppy raiser for Canine Companions for Independence back in the mid to late 1980's, and a Puppy Petter for Assistance Dog Institute in the early 2000's. I've also kept busy with boarding in my home for friends and acquaintances. I love dogs!! I have Sundays and Mondays off from my full time job, but I can fit in a nice walk after 4 pm most other days. When I have someone's dog, they get my full attention; we play, exercise, snuggle. My focus is providing an enriching experience for your dog .
“Bernadette watched and fed our little dog while we went to dinner for the night. She was very accommodating and communicative through the whole process. We would recommend her for dog-sitting, especially for small dogs.”
“Veronica was an excellent choice for my Tito. She is professional, experienced and a very kind person. Tito was made to feel right at home and was very happy while with Veronica. He had his first pupcup and she sent him home with the cutest hallow costume. I highly recommend her for your pet. ❤️”

From daily walks to playtime and snuggles, Heather D. truly treats our dog like their own. Their reliability, kindness, and love for animals shine through every visit. Highly recommend!”
“David was very easy to work with and responded quickly to our questions/ concerns. Our dogs had access to a few enclosed acres on the property which was great for the dogs...a beautiful setting as well. Our 3 dogs got along well with David's dogs and another visiting dog. Most important, I felt our dogs were in good hands with David.”
“Christina provided excellent care for my 2 month old pup. I liked that she sent me pictures of him daily. She was very responsive over text message. I highly recommend Christina.”
