“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!”


“Michael took amazing care of our dog, Hopper! I booked him because of his outstanding reviews and he surely did not disappoint. He sent videos everyday and we could see Hopper was having the time of his life. Our dog struggles with socializing a bit, but Michael helped him feel calm and make friends! It was a great experience for our dog! When we left, Hopper looked longingly at his house and has been acting sad to be away from Michael and his furry friends. This was a vacation for our pup! He will definitely be back for more fun and cuddles with Michael!!”



“Kash had a wonderful time staying with Briana, her family and his new friend Duke! Briana sent several pictures daily and kept up updated on his eating, playing and sleeping routine. We knew he was getting the love and attention as if he was home.”

“Amanda is AMAZING!! She takes all proper precautions to ensure safety of her clients and their fur babies. I met her prior to her keeping Nike but did not need her service at the time. I had an emergency come up and without hesitation she was willing to care for Nike. She sent picture updates and stayed in consistent communication. I thank her so much for alleviating my stress level while I was out of town. Highly recommend”


“Heather n her family were great with Dexter! He enjoyed his vacation too! He was so clean n shiny when we picked him up, his hair looked awesome! He smelled like a farm dog so I added a bath, since I didn’t get time to bathe him before we left. Thank you so much! Dexter will be back!”

“My Great Dane loved his experience with Lydia and her family. He got plenty of exercise and was beyond spoiled. I received plenty of pictures and videos of my pup! I will be using Lydia every time I travel. If I could rate 10 stars, I would”


About: I have had a dog my entire life. When my last one passed, my heart was broken and I haven’t been able to get another one. I watched my daughter’s dog for a year but took her back about a year ago to Idaho). I work from home and it’s very quiet without any four-legged friends to keep me company throughout the day. I would love to help you out by watching your fur baby (& I can’t lie, it would make my heart happy to do so :)) I work from home and have the flexibility to take them out for walks as needed. I walk multiple times a day & would love to share that with a dog. Because I work from home, I am easily able to give a lot of love to your fur baby so that you can relax and not worry about a thing. I will love them like they are my own!

Briana & her family are fantastic!!! I will definitely be using her again to watch Bentley. She kept me updated each day with feedback on how my Bentley was doing, as well as sending pictures & videos. Bentley even became good buddies with their gentle giant. Thank you so much, Briana! Hopefully you'll be available for my next outing!
