“Corrine is amazing! Joey had a great time with her and his furry friends while we were away. It is the 1st time we left Joey with anyone and would not hesitate to bring him back to Corrine.”
About: I have cared for puppies, as well as adult dogs and aging dogs. I love them all and they all sense it when I meet them. I am retired, so I have a lot of time and a very flexible schedule. Also, I am up very early in the morning, and like getting an early start. I have a partially fenced yard, so would be more comfortable with your dog n a leash or inside the house if at my home.
“Avigail was great with our dogs and they loved staying with her! She sent us pics throughout the day and kept us posted about everything. They came back home so tired from all the playing 😂 Definitely recommend her :)”
“Cara is very caring and an excellent communicator. She has a neat, clean home & a very friendly small dog who readily accepted our 24lb cockapoo. When we returned to her home after the Meet & Greet, our pooch was happily whining & immediately laid on the floor & stretched wagging his tail. He was thoroughly happy when we retrieved him several days later, Cara even cleaned his ears when she saw he had ear discomfort, Highly recommend her.”
“We were hesitant about leaving Max with anyone while we took a vacation. After meeting Carol we we were reassured. She really put us at ease by sending pictures and a video of Max out for a walk. He was well taken care of and we could relax and enjoy ourselves. We will definitely book with Carol again when we need a sitter for Max. Thank you!!”
“Very appreciative to have taken my pup last minute when I flew home for a wedding. Was great with my pup and he loved playing with her kiddos. Thankful that she was able to give him his medications when asked. Thank you so much, definitely would recommend and use again when back in the area!!”

“This was the first time my husband and I left Lindi for a week and we are so grateful she was with Tom. He sent us pictures and updates and really eased our minds. He is truly a dog lover and we couldn’t be more pleased!”
About: I have had dogs since I was a teenager and now care for my one senior dog and one mid aged dog as well . I am currently a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to give your pet all the care and love they need! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for play and two loving older dogs of my own who love to relax, sun bathe on the deck and sleep all day. We also love to spend time at night cuddling with our guys on the couch!
“Christine and her family took excellent care of our Sugar and Ella while we were away. She updated us frequently with texts and pictures.As a rescue dog, Sugar is normally very tentative and shy. Sugar came home a new girl. She is even greeting strangers without fear! Ella had an issue with her ears while we were away, and Christine quickly reached out to us to treat it.They both were happy and healthy when we returned.”
“Gwen is amazing! I felt she displayed the confidence in handling our 90lb Rhodesian Ridgeback from the moment we met- She properly and confidently introduced her dog to Ffion in a calm, controlled manner. She truly understands a dogs mindset and immediately connected with Ffion- she is a dog lover through and through! She welcomed Ffion as if she was part of their family and I felt that our dog would be safe, loved, and more than cared for on her overnight stay. A beautiful fenced in yard, a warm and kind family who also clearly loves dogs, organized (with her instructions printed) and clean + comfy environment. I look forward to booking with Gwen in the near future and we are so happy that we found her! Highly recommend!”

“This was our first time using Matt for an overnight for our dog Gino. Gino had the absolute best time! Not only did Matt send us updates and pics which made us feel so comfortable and happy knowing he was having fun, Gino loved Matt’s dogs Jax and Henry. (And so do we!) We are so lucky to have found Matt! Thank you for taking such good care of Gino! See you next week!”
“Max had a wonderful time with Mark and will be looking forward to the next time he stays with him. Mark kept me posted on their time together with regular photos and videos, and I had absolute trust in the care he was giving my boy. I would not hesitate in calling on Mark in the future.”
“Patricia was excellent. She responded to my request very quickly, and was able to watch Teeko that very weekend. Went for a meet and greet to meet her and Jagger after our request, and had no trouble scheduling that even within a small timeframe. Patricia was very patient with Teeko as he got to know Jagger, and as he was his usual hyper husky self pacing around the house and sniffing every thing during the meet and greet. She is a confident dog sitter, easy to work with, and very kind hearted. She sent us a really cute picture of Teeko enjoying his stay, which we really enjoyed seeing during our little weekend trip. Her adult daughter was helpful as well, and took Teeko for a nice walk which of course makes Teeko a very happy camper. I highly recommend Patty and definitely plan to use her again in the future!”
“Bailey was very happy to stay and play with Georgia. Danielle was so friendly and welcoming, it was easy to know she would take good care of my pup. She also has an awesome big fenced in backyard for the doggies to run around and get their energy out. Thank you!”

I had such a wonderful experience with Margaret and Christian! Her communication was excellent—she kept me updated and made sure every detail was clear. Margarets super knowledgeable and even took the time to write down all the important information, even though my dog is probably one of the easiest dogs to sit. I loved getting all the pup pictures, and it made my vacation so much more relaxing knowing he was in such great hands. It was also so sweet getting to meet Margaret’s son, Christian, and hearing that my pup was the favorite—absolutely made my day! I felt completely comfortable the entire time. Highly, highly recommend!
When I dropped off Buddy at At Jamie’s house he was welcomed as if he was visiting his second home.Her daughters were thrilled to have Buddy there and from the pictures I was sent he made himself right at home. Her whole family enjoyed having Buddy visit and I’m so glad to have found Jamie and her family.
This was our first time using Matt for an overnight for our dog Gino. Gino had the absolute best time! Not only did Matt send us updates and pics which made us feel so comfortable and happy knowing he was having fun, Gino loved Matt’s dogs Jax and Henry. (And so do we!) We are so lucky to have found Matt! Thank you for taking such good care of Gino! See you next week!
I had such a great experience leaving my dog with Laura & Carmine while I was away for the weekend. My dog has separation anxiety and some behavior quirks, so finding the right sitters can be tough—but they were incredibly understanding, sweet, and welcoming. He was clearly well cared for, had fun, and most importantly, felt safe and relaxed in their home. I would absolutely recommend them to other pet owners and hope to book with them again in the future!
