We left our 10 month old Pippin with Kimberly and Jeremy for a long weekend and were so happy we chose them! Kimberly sent us pictures and Pippin made himself right at home immediately. From the pictures sent to us, he might have had a better weekend than his humans! Thanks so much!

Michelle was amazing with our 1 year old Lab and we knew she was in good hands for the holiday weekend as soon as we met her! She most definitely is a dog lover, great with communication, sent wonderful pictures and provided welcome feedback. We will most certainly use her again next time we are in her area.

Sonya is wonderful. She kept me updated on my doggo and how he was doing during his stay. He was well cared for and had friends to play with. He seemed to really enjoy his time there and I loved how experienced Sonya is with dogs. She really knows what she’s doing and I’m looking forward to booking with her again.

We had a last minute change in plans and needed to book a sitter to watch our two dogs. We have two very energetic dogs and can be a lot for most people. She was very open and loving towards the dogs since they stepped in the door. I will 100% go back to Cheyenne when we leave again. We received many pictures and updates throughout our entire stay. Cheyenne was extremely accommodating on our drop off and pick up schedule which took a lot of pressure off of us. Thank you so much Cheyenne in taking care of our loved ones.

Heather was great with our dog, Rosie! She sent picture updates each day and gave our dog plenty of exercise. It gave us so much peace of mind to know Rosie was taken care of while we were away--hope we can book with you again, Heather! Thanks for everything.

About: I have been fostering for almost 10 years and have taken care of cats, dogs and horses growing up my whole life. I am familiar with giving meds and special needs for dogs and cats as well. I am working part time to spend more time with my kids and dogs and my kids also love new companions we take in and care for. I have just been wanting to care for more animals in my area. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dobermans and a doberdoodle. They are all dog and kid friendly. My dogs are vetted and up to date on everything. My dobermans are the reason I started fostering as they love new friends! My doberdoodle was my foster fail that I love dearly. I do have a couple kennels but if your dog does better with no kennel I do that as well!

Lisa is the bees knees!!! She was so communicative and accommodating. I was nervous but in a pinch and needed to put my trust in someone to watch a very special member of my family. She exceeded any and all expectations I could have had. She was personable and friendly to me too. What an absolute pleasure. Thank you Lisa!!!!!

About: I had to put down my 10 year old lab this winter. I miss having dog, but thought this would be a great way to spoil your dog and have a dog in the house again. I'm not ready for another pet just yet. I will be in charge, as I work from home. Promise lots of walks, private beach if your dog enjoys that and lots of attention. No puppies (can discuss if housebroken) and can provide for senior dogs if needs are reasonable. Thank you! I primarily work from home so your dog will never be left alone for long. I am writer, so I sit at my desk quite a bit. However, those hikes in the woods or walks around the neighborhood are necessary. I would love to have your dog join me. I will treat your dog like a part of the family. I walk, feed and give plenty of attention. You tell me the rest. I miss having our own dog and would love to take care of yours. It's not a good time to get another dog, but I know how to love and care for yours. I work from home and will handle the care of your dog.

Cindy was amazing. I wish we lived closer so we could used her all the time. We told her our dog had accidents and she was very understanding and accommodating. She has a nice back yard and let our dog our often. We could tell our dog was very loved when we came back to pick her up.

About: Being raised on a dairy farm I’ve been around all sorts of animals, big and small. From kittens, chickens, calves, dogs to full size cows I have done it all. I’m a proud owner of two pure bred English Mastiffs, we just whelped our first ever litter of pups! I’m looking to fill spare time in my day doing what I love most! I have always had so much love for all animals. Let me help you by loving your fur babies while you are busy! I’m available almost all the time. Currently I’m a stay at home mom caring for my 3 year old and 2 gentle giants. Weekdays, weekends, nights or mornings, I can be there for you! I have a very large yard(field) and two gentle giants to keep your babies content and happy. Look forward to a clean, exercised and fed pup when you get home! I have a giant crate also if needed.

Caroline was great with communicating. We were greatly appreciative of her welcoming Bentley to stay last minute, seeing our other boarder had to back out due to a family emergency. Bentley seemed to enjoy his time there. He had one behavior problem that was very unusual for him, but Caroline was open and honest about what happened. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Bentley with her again.

Such a wonderful and relaxing time for road-worn Millie! It was wonderful that Coleen was available and her home and environment were so peaceful! I would highly recommend Coleen for any care for any pet. I felt like Millie had a nice vacation with her Auntie🥰. Will be using her again when we return to TC next spring.

Sally was very nice and sent me ample pictures of my Buster. I forgot to take my dogs food and she she would give my boy some of her dogs food, if I didn’t mind. I would use Sally again. Thank you Sally, for loving my sweet boy!
