“Cindy was so wonderful to take such great care if our pups on short notice. We really appreciated her coming to meet them and us ahead of time and the great communication. Felt relaxed knowing our three were in good care. She was willing to go the extra mile for us!”
“G was great with my dog hops! Spent a lot of time giving me doggie treat making tips and other good advice during the meet and greet, clearly showing she knows a lot and cares about dogs. Was on time for every drop in visit. Will definitely book with her again.”
“I honestly can’t tell everyone how WONDERFUL and KIND Tisha is to BOTH dogs and humans!!! On virtually NO notice, my husband was admitted into a hospital 3 hours away. One of my biggest stresses were my two dogs (ages 12 & 15). We usually take them everywhere but with no notice I had to figure out their short-term care. Tisha was ABSOLUTELY amazing, flexible and caring!!! I truly could not have asked for more (even though I got it with her!!). With my husband so ill, I didn’t have to stress about the care of my sweet dogs!! I feel blessed to have Tisha step in and take such loving care of my dogs!! She was so good I don’t think my dogs even missed me!???????”
“Diana is so great! She is willing and helpful to take on watching my pooch; sometimes last minute. She’s very kind and I know that kindness extends to my baby when I’m away. I highly recommend Diana!!”
About: I have had pets since I was able to walk starting with a bunny. I absolutely love all animals, and I dogsit/catsit for multiple friends, teammates and family members when needed! I am currently doing observation hours over this summer with a physical therapy clinic but, I am able to make my own hours so I can move my schedule around for what is needed! I do not have any furry other friends at home currently only a leopard gecko which his tank is in my room. I live in a complex with a pool and a dog park which is great for taking doggies to walk around and play!
About: I’ve taken care of animals for years including my own, fosters, and family and friends’ pets. I have experience with all ages and sizes of both cats and dogs. I do have a 7 year old lab in my home who is very friendly and loves overnight doggie guests. I would love to learn more about how I can help you care for your pet! Note: I only book one client at a time for in-my-home services (day car/boarding). I accept multiple dogs from the same family, but will not book another client while I have your dog(s). I currently work full time with a flexible schedule during the week and am very available on weekends! I’d be happy to see how I can fit your loved ones care into my schedule! I have a fully fenced (6ft wood privacy) large yard. We also allow our dog and your on all furniture and beds if they’d like; they’re a member of the family. We do have a crate for security if that makes your pup feel more safe and sound when they’re away from their humans. Please let me know if there are any other accommodations or notes I’d need to know to best care for your pet!
“This is the second time I’ve used Dena to care for my cats when I was going to be gone. The first time was 2 yrs ago and I felt safe and confident enough with her to request her again this year. Both times she’s had a key to my place and often came while I was out. But after I had surgery and was sleeping when she came, she made every effort to be very quiet and not wake me up. My cats were fed and litter was changed, garbage was taken out also. Thank you Dena! Maybe I’ll see you next winter when I’m back for the season!”

About: All dogs and cats I’ve been in contact with, aggressive or not, are always friendly with me. I’ve loved animals since I was 5 years old, my very first dog being a German shepherd who grew up with me :] I’ll be working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to come and see your animals. I’m free all weekends but like to be back home by at least 10 pm I have two dogs and two cats, one old pug who sleeps and doesn’t bother a single soul, and a toddler terrier with lots of energy, but usually will be put up when people or other animals are over
