“Catherine was amazing! Her and her husband were very sweet and knowledgeable! They took the time to do a proper meet and greet which helped my dog get to know them and made my experience so comforting to know exactly where my dog would be as well as get to know who my dog would be staying with. They sent updates throughout the entire time. My dog was so happy, well cared for, and felt at home. Highly recommended booking Catherine!”


“Kerri and her family took great care of our big Newfoundland mix. Her dogs were friendly and played well with my dog all week. I appreciated getting photos every day which let me know my dog Juneau was happy and safe! Looking forward to booking with her again in the future. Thanks again!!!”


“Kathy was an amazing pet sitter. My dog stayed for three nights and had the best time playing with her sweet dog Ollie. Kathy was incredibly attentive and kind. My dog had hurt her leg prior to going over there and she even took the time to gently massage her leg ( after checking with me) It really meant a lot knowing my dog was so cared for uncomfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kathy again and highly recommend her!”

“Jennifer was amazing! She took such great care of my dog Dunkin’. She kept me updated throughout his stay with messages, pictures and videos. She went above and beyond my expectations. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

About: I offer doggy day care in a safe, loving home with a large fenced-in yard for plenty of supervised play and exercise. I have experience caring for shy dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, so I understand that every pup has different needs, energy levels, and comfort zones. My two friendly dogs help create a welcoming, social environment for dogs who enjoy companionship. I focus on making each dog feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while providing owners with peace of mind through dependable care and updates Pet care is a natural part of my routine. I work full time during the week, so I make sure pets get loving care, exercise, and attention before and after work. Since I have weekends off, I’m able to provide lots of extra time, play, and personalized care then. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and at home. Pets receive plenty of attention, supervised playtime, potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I also have a large fenced-in yard for outdoor play and two friendly dogs for social interaction if your pet enjoys companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I understand every pet is different, so I always adjust my care based on their personality, energy level, and needs. My goal is to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind through dependable care and updates
About: For the comfort and safety of every pup, I only host one family’s dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog my full attention and maintain a calm, low stress environment. My care goes beyond the basics. it’s rooted in genuine love and experience. My journey caring for Kayne, our special needs dog, taught me how to handle medical routines, provide comfort, and stay attentive to every detail. That experience shaped my approach to every pet I welcome. I understand that each animal deserves patience, respect, and love. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, they’ll always be treated like family in our home. We’re CPR and First Aid certified, giving you extra peace of mind while your pup is in our care. Pet care is woven into my daily life and something I genuinely love. As a stay at home mom, I’m home full time to give every furry friend constant love and attention. Our days revolve around walks, playtime, and snuggles. Caring for our late dog, Kayne, who developed a spinal injury and heart condition, taught me that true care takes patience, compassion, and adaptability qualities I bring to every pet I meet. In our home, every animal is treated like family. I provide a clean, safe, and active space with multiple walks, a fenced yard for play, and individualized routines. Through my experience caring for Kayne, who required special medical attention, I learned how to adapt to any level of care whether it’s energetic puppies or older companions needing extra comfort. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands that treat them as one of our own.
“Our dog Maggie had such a great time with Ann and her family. Between catching wiffle balls or playing in a kiddie pool, Maggie was well looked after and enjoyed lots of play time. Ann is a very loving and caring person and we knew immediately Maggie was in great hands. The backyard is safe and fenced in with plenty of space to run around. Ann gave daily updates with photos and videos! Highly recommend!!”

“Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.”

“"I just boarding my dog Aston for a few days stay with Kathryn and couldn't be happier!! Kathryn and her family treated my Aston like their own. Its a home-setting which is best for my Aston as he has never been in a kennel setting and does not like to be in a crate/cage. Kathryn has a lovely home and fenced backyard for the dogs to play and toys/beds in every room of the house" Highly recommend!! - Arlene. D”

“Ashley was fantastic. Extremely conscientious, sent pictures and text updates throughout our pooch's vacation there, and really worked with us on timing and logistics. Very reliable, and would choose Ashley again in a heartbeat.”

“We were visiting from out of town and not able to have a meet-and-greet before the stay, but Donna’s experience and knowledge of dogs made us feel very comfortable to leave our dog with her. She was accommodating with drop-off and pickup. We would definitely have Donna watch our dog again.”


“Gen was very accommodating by taking Winston and gave me updates the entire time. I knew the whole time Winston was safe, and was well taken care of. I will be booking w/ Gen again the next time I go away!”

“Had such a wonderful experience with John. From the moment we dropped our pup off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in caring and capable hands. Communication was great throughout and Cookie came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which says everything. It’s obvious that every dog is treated like family and in a clean and safe space. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend John to anyone looking for trustworthy care for their pet!”

“Marla is so sweet and was such a great host for our fur babies! She was super easy to communicate with and even sent us video updates while we were away! Will definitely book again when I need a sitter!”

I left my dog with Paul for four nights and he was fantastic! He lives in a quiet neighborhood, very peaceful with a great yard. I got plenty of updates and photos of my girl while I was away. She was clearly comfortable and at ease at his house, her tail was wagging from the moment I dropped her off until I picked her back up! He and his wife are very capable, clearly love animals, and take whatever precautions necessary to keep your pet safe and comfortable. Next time I go away I will be calling Paul back up for her to stay again! Absolutely recommend, your pet will be in great hands.
