1. Hanna S.
“Hanna was amazing with my dog Stella! Stella sometimes takes a while to warm up to strangers, but she felt at home with Hanna immediately. Hanna sent me updates throughout the weekend, including pictures and videos. She took Stella for walks in the woods, played with her and even set up a kiddie pool for her. I highly recommend Hanna!”

6. Morgan & Jennifer H.
“These two women are earth angels. I had to go to Florida to close on a house I had inherited and my 14 y/o Cavalier spaniel was having some medical issues and needing a lot of and patience. Jennifer and Morgan were beyond excellent - took care of Maddie for 5 days and sent pictures and videos to us to update us on her condition. She just arrived back home now and our gratitude is beyond words for the care and love Maddie had with them. I recommend them highly and will always call them first for any future dog care needs. You won't be disappointed if you use their services - I'm certain of that.”

8. Kjersten & Nicholas A.
“Our Chihuahua mixed breed dog is not an easy dog to care for. He can be loud and hard to connect with for many people. Nic and Kjersten gave Jarvis a sense of safety and were responsive to his needs. Jarvis loved his stay with the Andersons. They will be our “go to” home when we need to go out of town.”

12. Dondee J.
“Dondee is awesome!! Our dog, Rylee love to visit Dondee. We do not board our dog very much but Dondee makes the process much easier. She sent us lots of photos and videos, which made us feel much better about leaving her. Rylee had a blast playing with Oscar and Ginger , the cat. Would not consider going anywhere else. Thank you again. The McConnell Family.”

15. Christina B.
About: Hi my name is Christina! I've been sitting all sorts of pets my whole life. My family started at home sitting ever since I was little and now that I've moved out I decided to start one on my own. We've housed tons of cats and dogs even bunnies and guinea pigs. I have one dog of my own who gets along with all cats and dogs. She just gets extra curious around cats but if need be I can always separate them. I currently work 6a.m.-2:30p.m. every day besides Sundays and Tuesdays, those are my days off. I am also in the national guard so I am gone for 1 weekend out of every month which shouldn't be a problem because I usually drive home. I let them roam my house when i'm home and separate them off in my spare bedroom while I'm away for safety reasons. I can play with them, brush them and give them all the love and affection just as if they were at home.
16. Nat O.
“Nat was great! It was our first time leaving our 6-month-old pup overnight, and Nat made sure that all of us felt comfortable with the new experience. She communicated clearly before, during, and after Greta's stay, and kept us updated with photos while Greta was with her. Thank you, Nat!”
17. Gabriella B.
“Gabriella was awesome- she kept me in the loop with what was going on and very communicative. Very nice and the dogs seemed to have a good time!”
18. Akirra B.
“Akirra did a great job with Scout. She sent us updates and photos. Her own dog seemed very compatible. I’ll use her again.”
19. Kathy I.
“Kathy watched our guy Rupert while we were out of town for a family event. She and her dog, Bullet, took such great care of him! He was tired, happy, and had such a great time! Kathy’s fully fenced in yard gave me a lot of security as Rupert gets very easily distracted. I will absolutely be using her again for all of Rupert’s future stays!”
20. Kaylin B.
“Kaylin is super friendly and took great care of our three dogs. She kindly accepted our last minute booking and worked with us as our plans changed. 100% recommended!”
