“Emily did a wonderful job caring for our two senior dogs during our vacation. She sent me regular photos and updates and was responsive to my messages. Emily and her family gave our fur babies lots of love during their stay at her home for a week. I would highly recommend Emily for pet sitting/boarding.”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful about keeping us in the loop on how our dog was doing. We could tell from the pictures and messages she sent us that Mylo was doing just fine. It was our first time leaving him since we rescued him in September so we were nervous about it. We’ll definitely use Heather again when we need to go out of town.”
“Our pup just really took to Carol and had a great 2 days with her. She sent us pictures of him and let us know how he was doing through out his stay. We will definitely be using Carol again!”
“Darcie and her family were very thoughtful and accommodating for my dogs needs. She kept me updated on his stay with messages and pictures. Would definitely take him back.”
“My big wannabe lap dog had a great time at Sherry’s house. I was updated with pics on how he was doing throughout his stay. He had lots of fun with Gus her golden retriever. Would recommend and use again for future stays.”
“Anna-Lena is the person you can absolutely feel safe and comfortable having your best friend stay with her! She was incredibly helpful with watching over my dog by having great communication, greeting the dogs and keeping me up to date with pictures and little notes on the stay! I know my dog enjoyed herself and I was able to enjoy myself knowing my dog was with someone that takes safety, security, and also fun into staying with her! She will always be my first choice whenever help is needed again!”
“I feel so grateful that I found someone like Genna to watch my English Setter. He plays beautifully with her dog and is treated like part of their family. She gives him the love and care that gives me peace of mind when he's with her. The huge, fenced in backyard is another plus.The photographs and video she sends on a regular basis make me smile. I highly recommend Genna to anyone looking for an outstanding sitter for their dog!”
“Corinna was awesome! Everything went perfectly from the initial conversation to plan Max’s drop-off all the way until pickup. Corinna was attentive to all of Max’s special needs, she was very accommodating & had a wonderful set-up for Max to feel comfortable. She also had excellent communication skills, providing many photos & updates throughout his stay. I highly recommend Corinna. A++”
“Cathleen was great at communicating and great with the dogs. She’s a natural with them and her dog Thor is a big ol’ sweetheart. My dogs took to Cathleen’s backyard so quickly. It was a great space. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Kathleen took great care of Poppy. She gave him tons of walks and love and even introduced him to her friends. She went above and beyond feeding Poppy healthy food that she purchased herself. Kathleen sent Poppy home clean after giving him a bath. None of this was requested. This shows the love she pours into the animals she cares for. A++.”
“I left my dogs for the first time over Christmas. My very excitable, stage-one clinger (GSD) was calm and happy when I picked her up which indicates that she was feeling very relaxed during her stay. It was a great experience. I highly recommend Jake and his family.”
“Shalom was very well taken care of, she was comfortable and happy when we came to get her. She even seemed to have gained a little weight which we've been trying to get her to do for awhile now! Terry was very kind and polite and we'd gladly take Shalom back to him to be watched whenever we need!”
“Thanos seemed like he really enjoyed his stay with Olivia and family. I truly appreciate her accommodating for his last minute stay. She communicated well and sent lots of updates and pictures. Thanos came back to us with a smile and new friends. Definitely recommend!”
“Andrea was a great host to our KoKo. She kept us in the know with status updates as well as pictures. We contacted her last minute, but her communication and willingness to serve was evident as we came up with time lines that worked for her and us. 10/10. Andrea will get our service in the future.”
About: On top of being a veterinary assistant for over three years, I have also taken care of pets of my own and family and friends' since I was very young. I began working at the humane society at 14 and haven't stopped working with animals since! I have a B.S in Animal Ecology, and am currently working towards becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician. I currently work full-time at a veterinary hospital with weekends free. I never work past 6:30pm and never go in before 7am. Once a week I am off at 2pm, and another day I do not go in until 12pm. This provides me a flexible schedule to take care of your furry kiddos! I have a large yard that will be fully fenced in by the end of the summer, and a very friendly dog myself who loves to make new friends. I also have very tolerant cats that adapt to new friends as well! I have a spare room and crate available if needed. I have my own nail trimming supplies and transportation for myself and even for your fur baby if needed!
“Erica was very good with Jude. She has a big back yard for Jude to run and play with her dog and still took him on walks. She was very accommodating on times for drop off and pick up.”
