“Casey is so nice and took really good care of my two dogs who can be a handful at times. She sent me adorable photos during their stay!! We will be booking her for future stays as well!”


“Eman was great to plan with, and my dog clicked with her immediately. She sent me several pictures of my happy and content puppy, had absolutely no worries. So kind and thoughtful.”


“I could not have picked a better dog sitter. Nadia took such great care of my Alfie! I could tell from all the pictures she sent me that she really loved him. I am so thankful that I found her! Alfie had some rough times in his past but she handled his issues with great care and love ❤️”


“Amy was amazing and I could not recommend her enough!! She took the best care ever of our 1 year old pup and he came home so happy and tired from all the love and play Amy provided. She has a perfect house and yard for the dogs, sends so many updates and pictures, and is very communicative and kind. She clearly loves dogs and is a trustworthy person you can rely on to take excellent care of your pups! We will certainly be using her again in the future!”


“Deb was great! We originally book with just one dog for the weekend of our wedding and ended up getting a second one and she was willing to watch them both. She was flexible with us to let us come pick them up to have them be included in some pictures. We got lots of updates and they had a good time. We will definitely book again if we are in the area.”


“Cortney did awesome with our son! He love it over there with his new friends!! We definitely will book with her again!!🩵🩷 Thanks for taking care of our boy Cortney!!”



“We use Brenda exclusively. She is the best! She sends photos and updates and we always know they are well cared for. Sissy runs in when we get there as if to let everyone know she has arrived. This confirms to me she loves staying with Brenda. I’m so glad we found her.”


“Hannah is amazing! She's a real dog whisperer. Our pup HATES cats so we were nervous to live him with her because Hannah cares for a number of cats as well. Low and behold, this dog SLEPT in the same bed as a couple of cats and he was completely unfazed. Unreal. Thanks Hannah. Looking forward to booking again soon :)”


“Falcor enjoyed his Christmas vacation with Carla. She sent us updates and pictures every day. He ran out of food and she made sure to let us know and went and got him what he needed. We would recommend Carla to anyone needing a dog sitter for an extended trip.”


“Sierra, her family, and her dogs were very inviting for our dog. She was an excellent communicator, gave regular updates, and sent us many sweet photos of our dog. It felt like our dog was just part of the their family. We would gladly have our dog stay with them anytime we are traveling. We would highly recommend her to any friends who need dog sitting.”


“Jackie was amazing when watching our dog for 2.5 weeks while we were out of the country. She had great communication and sent us pics throughout the time. Great location as well for dogs to stay! Our dog has 3 legs and Jackie had no issues watching our dog and was very accommodating with any special needs. Highly recommend Jackie!”


“Andrew was awesome. Took great care of Stella for two nights, sent perfect updates and even helped her with some behaviors. She had a great stay with his two beautiful dogs. Highly recommend.”


“I cannot say enough about Krystal and her family! Truly the best dog sitter I could ever dream up!! She loved our sweet poochie like her own! She sent me daily updates with pictures and details about how he was doing, and what fun activities they were doing with him! She has a gorgeous area in her home dedicated to doggy sitting, and it is just lovely. They took him on walks and puppy stroller rides when the pavement was too hot for his little feet. They worked on his tricks with him, they even bought him a new toy just for the fun of it! I had no doubts that he was being well cared for, and that was so comforting to me while we were traveling. I will 100% use Krystal again, and recommend her to everyone!!”


“Great communication about Lulu and how she was doing while away! Lulu was comfortable with Wendy from the moment she met her. Thank you for taking great care of her while we were away!”


“Falen was very flexible and accommodating at the last minute. She really came to the rescue and my dogs felt very safe and garnered a lot of love and attention during their stay. The communication was superb and top-notch. Thank you Falen!”


About: Ive grown up with animals and took an interest in training and sitting when I was around 10 years old. I have experience training and watching family dogs, reactive dogs, service dogs and puppies! I also have multiple animals of my own and am well versed in the different care that different species may need. When I am home, my attention is 100% on my animals. I do have a full time job in a neighboring city and am gone for normal work hours, but devote time and attention when I am home. In my own home, everybody has their own space. With dogs, cats and bunnies, each animal has the ability to socialize or spend time on their own in their space. Each animal has been trained to appropriately interact with each other.
