“Brittany was WONDERFUL with our dog. He's never been left with someone he doesn't know overnight and Brittany was great with sending updates and letting us know how he was doing. Would absolutely book with her again when we're in the area!”


“Renae was a wonderful choice. Took very good care of our dog. She texted updates during his stay and also photos of him enjoying himself. She also has training knowledge and actually taught him a new command.”



“My dog had a wonderful stay with Vivian. She made sure to send pics and updates during his stay. We will definitely book with her in the future. Thanks for watching Rusty!”


“Ann was so amazing! She took our puppy swimming and made sure to send us pictures and videos. I definitely recommend her to watch anyone’s pup. And she’s overall such a good hearted woman!”


About: Growing up surrounded by a variety of animals—from reptiles and birds to cats, and dogs—I’ve developed a deep understanding of pet care. Over the years, family and friends have relied on me to look after their pets, trusting my attentive and compassionate nature. With my own dog, I’ve completed puppy and advanced obedience classes, explored agility training, and even participated in AKC FastCAT trials. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s part of who I am. My schedule is highly flexible, so I’m available when you and your pet need care most. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a midday walk, or a cozy stay while you’re away, I’m here to make pet parenting easier and stress-free. I have two children (ages 7 and 1½) who are gentle, curious, and adore spending time with pets. Alongside them is our friendly 4-year-old Dalmatian, who is crate-trained and well-socialized. We live on a spacious property with an invisible fence, but I understand not all pets are familiar with that setup—so your dog will always be walked on a leash for safety and comfort. I also have room for an additional crate to provide a secure space for your pet if I need to step out, ensuring their well-being at all times. Your furry family member will be treated with the same care and attentiveness I give my own.

“Carol is amazing. She was loving and kind with our pup and we were extremely comfortable with her when we left our pup at her home. We received regular photos and updates on sleeping, eating and playing. I highly recommend Carol!!!!”


“Melissa took excellent care of my pups. She is flexible, communicative, and very attentive and patient with my dogs. Melissa sent daily updates with photos and videos which we loved to see. She has two sweet pups that my dogs got along great with and loved playing with during their stay at her house. They also loved playing in her big fenced in yard. They came home happy and exhausted! We highly recommend Melissa for pet sitting/boarding! Thank you, Melissa!”


“Absolutely wonderful! Someone was with my baby the whole time and she was happy. In turn, I was happy. Michelle was able to work with my schedule... that kept changing. I'd highly recommend and will certainly use again in the future. Montana was immediately at ease and he body language told me she loves them. ❤”


“This was the 2nd time Nicole watched Pepper for me, this time it was for a couple of days. She takes such good care of him, treats him like he’s her own little guy. Nicole is amazing!”


“My pup spent a week with Lindsay and her family and I couldn’t be happier with how attentive she was to my dog’s needs through the entire process. She provided many updates so that I knew my pup was happy and enjoying himself. I can tell that my furball will be so happy to go back!”


“She sends of pics and updates of our fur baby the whole time our dog spends the night(s) and our dog loves to spend the night with her! Would 100% recommend her to anybody!!”


“Tina was great. The nice perk is she has a big yard and a doggie door so my Yorkie could go in and out of her house whenever he wanted to. He is very attached to people and she took very good care of him!”



“I can't say enough good things about my experience boarding my dog with Jessica. She was flexible, reliable, responsive, and my dog loved her. It was fantastic not to worry about my girl while I was on vacation. I will definitely be rebooking the next time I need a dogsitter.”


“Gary and his partner were amazing! Great communication and updates. And my dog was so happy when I picked him up! They will be our new regular sitters. Highly recommend.”


“Wow, such a wonderful sitter! Beatriz took care of my Chihuahua-mix and 3-month-old kitten for a few days. My babes are playful and clingy, and I was worried about being away from a basically newborn and her rambunctious big sister -- they're a handful! But according to all of the (amazing!!!) photos and videos, it seems they were quickly right at home, with their own spots on the couch and newfound toys. Loved all of the updates and overall appreciate Beatriz's care for my pets :). Will definitely book her again if she'll have them!!”

About: I’m a full-time professional with three years of experience teaching manners at Humane Animal Rescue, and I’m excited to welcome friendly, well-socialized dogs into my home for boarding. My approach combines safety, structure, and enrichment so your dog feels secure, happy, and fulfilled during their stay. My home is set up with safety in mind—hazards are kept out of reach, and visiting pets are supervised closely every day. I have a securely fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, and while there are a few steps, I make sure each dog’s needs are accommodated. Before any stay, I require a meet-and-greet with my own well-socialized pit bull mix and cat. This ensures everyone feels comfortable and sets the tone for a stress-free visit. I also honor your preferred training methods and routines while adding daily mental and physical enrichment—sniff walks, puzzle toys, and engagement games—to keep your pup’s mind and body happy. Whether your dog thrives on quiet companionship or loves a more active, engaging schedule, I’ll make sure they feel cared for like family. I currently am a full time working professional with a hybrid schedule. I work two days in office and my husband works from home daily. Your pet will always be attended to and cared for like our own. I understand the importance of peace of mind when trusting your pet with another person. Extra attention and care is always taken to ensure pet safety, whether this be around open doors, while on walks, or any other particular needs they have.


“Jordan did an excellent job caring for Blu at her home while I was away on an extended weekend. Her qualifications speaks for itself making her more than qualified for the job. She did an awesome job me providing me regular updates on how Blu was doing to include photos making me feel at ease for it being his first time away from me and his normal environment. Definitely recommend and would trust Jordan again for future needs.”

Haley C.
“I have known and been friends with Haley for over 20 plus years. If I could describe Haley in three words I would say compassionate, kind, and thoughtful. Her love for animals has been since she was just a little girl. She is the person I call whenever I have a question regarding one of my own dogs or when I need someone trustworthy to watch them. When my one dog had an urgent medical issue she literally dropped everything to come help me take him the hospital. That is the kind of person she is. If you choose Haley to watch or care for your animal you will not be disappointed. She will go above and beyond to give them the care they deserve.”

Jenny S.
“I've been in the dog rescue world for 8 years now. I may seem like an over protective dog parent, but because I've experienced so much, I like to do whatever I can to create a happy and safe world for my pups at all times. With that, there are only a handful of people that I truly trust to take care of my dogs. I have 3 pit mixes of my own and one american bulldog mix foster. Jenny is one of those people. She's smart and thoughtful, follows directions, and knows basic training methods (positive only!). My dogs love her and so will yours.”
