“Jenn provided the best care for our recently adopted french bulldog, Dr. Pepper. She kept intouch with me all weekend and sent lots of pictures. He seemed to really enjoy his stay with Jenn and her family. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Corrine is amazing! I was very skeptical of leaving my dog in a house with other dogs because he only interacts with humans but Corrine made sure he was introduced to other furry friends little bit little and he had an amazing time!”
“We had a wonderful initial meet and greet with Carol. Our dog doesn't take to everyone but immediately took to Carol. We dropped our dog off feeling very good about Carol. While we were away Carol sent pictures of our dog relaxing on the couch looking very happy and healthy. When we returned our dog was obviously happy to see us. Carol said the two of them had a nice time together. I would definitely recommend Carol and we will use her again in the future when needed.”
“I was nervous to leave our puppy for the first time but Thomas made me feel comfortable after our meet and greet. My 6mo old is a little bit anxious around new people but I felt comfortable leaving him. Thomas sent updates and even let my puppy sleep in bed with him. He was also super accommodating when I mixed up days in my booking. Would 100% recommend Thomas”
“What an amazing family! Our 1 year old doggie spent 10 days with Ashley while we were on vacation !Piper was so well cared for….. just like ishe was their own doggie! We just picked her up and she was so happy! We highly recommend Ashley to care for your doggie!”
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.
About: I’ve been an animal lover and caretaker my whole life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, ferrets, reptiles, guinea pigs, hamsters, and parakeets of all ages. During the school year, I work as a full time special education teacher. This gives me mornings for walks and cuddles and plenty of time for love, attention, and playtime afternoon til bed. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog who loves to play with other dogs. I also have 2 dog friendly cats. If your pet is crate trained, I can easily accommodate that.

“Danielle was awesome with our Judge. You can see that she loves the pups and truly loves her job. We know Judge had a great time at her home because he came home nice and tired! Thank you Danielle and Judge is looking forward to seeing you again in the future!”
“Mark gave my pup amazing care! He cared and loved my dog as if she was his own! He is truly the best with his updates and videos and I could not be more lucky to have him care for my sweet Kali! Its amazing people like Mark that leaves you as a animal lover care free when your away from your pet! I thank you from the bottom of my heart Mark for such great care for Kali!!!”

Great communication and updates anytime! Yuna was so happy and already whining to go back as soon as we picked her up! She had a fantastic time!”

“Matthew and his family were great hosts to our Welsh Terrier Winnie. She is an active dog with a lot of attitude. With their two dogs Henry and Jacks they were able to keep her running, walking, and content. We know our dog had a great time when she comes home spent, worn out, and sleeping for two days. Matthew sent pictures each day and Winnie had a blast. Two thumbs up and we will gladly use Matthew again..if he'll let our 17lb beast back in their home!”
“Patricia did a great job watching Archie. She kept in regular contact with me while I was away. Archie felt very comfortable and at home with her. We will use her for future boardings.”
“Lisa was amazing! We had to make last minute adjustments for a trip out of the country for my Ella to stay with her. She was patient and understanding. The best part is when I went to pick my girl up after not seeing her for 10 days, she was still herself. It's obvious that Lisa has a love for animals. I would recommend to anyone :)”
About: I am a work from home dog mom and love my German Shorthaired Pointer, Remi. We go to the beach, park and go on neighborhood walks every day. I have the availability and capacity to have another dog to tag along. I have fostered dogs in the past and love helping a dog have a safe and comfortable place to stay! I work from home and take my dog for a walk every few hours or bring her to the beach or the park on my lunch break. Dogs have plenty of toys and comfortable places to relax and play while I work. Remi would love to keep your pup company! I have the room to have your dog set up however they need. If your pup is crate trained, I have a spare one to set up for them with all the comfy things needed to put in it. I have lots of treats and toys for pups to play with and a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood to walk them in.

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!
We had a wonderful initial meet and greet with Carol. Our dog doesn't take to everyone but immediately took to Carol. We dropped our dog off feeling very good about Carol. While we were away Carol sent pictures of our dog relaxing on the couch looking very happy and healthy. When we returned our dog was obviously happy to see us. Carol said the two of them had a nice time together. I would definitely recommend Carol and we will use her again in the future when needed.
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!
