Heather is amazing! Right away my mind was at ease with having her stay with our pup. Our dog was relaxed and happy upon us returning and I know she was well taken care of and enjoyed her time with Heather. Will 100% be booking in the future 😊

Working with Mary was a great! After we read her reviews and met her in person, we were so confident leaving our dog with her. Mary is a great communicator. All my questions were answered so quickly. She also sent us pictures of our dog living her best life while we were gone. It was so sweet and made us feel so relaxed and allowed us to enjoy our time at our daughter’s wedding. We already have plans for another trip and we are booking Mary for sure. We highly recommend Mary!

Rob did an amazing job housesitting for us, he was great with our fur baby and kept the house immaculate. He even did more things that we did not ask him nor expect him to do. Highly recommend his services, we were very happy knowing our house and pup were left in good hands! Thanks a lot Rob!

We had never left our fur babies with anyone but family, but since we had a family wedding we needed someone to care for them. When we met Julie we could tell that she had a love for animals and our pups took a liking to her right away! While Julie was caring for them she would keep us posted frequently on how they were doing by sending pictures . We will definitely be using Julie again in the future, it’s so nice to know we now have someone that we feel very comfortable with staying and caring for our fur babies!

Sarah was GREAT! she went above and beyond caring for my baby sending us pictures and taking care of our home as if it were her own. She washed blankets and towels that she used, cleaned up after herself and even shoveled the sidewalks/driveway since we got a few inches of snow one of the days we were gone. We will deffinately use her again!

Chloee has a heart of gold. She absolutely adores every animal she comes in contact with. She treats them all like her own furry friend. I've never met anyone who loves all animals like she does.

I, without reservation, can vouch for Ricky as a thoughtful and responsible young man, who has cultivated over the years an affinity for pets, and particularly dogs. He could be expected to be a most steadfast, reliable and kindhearted source of care and support for canine companions.

Kassia was great! She was available pretty last minute (huge procrastinator here). I didn’t want to board my dogs as they are rescues and I didn’t want them to feel abandoned. Kassia was available to make frequent trips to my house (one of my doggos has a tiny bladder) for an extended weekend. She was quick to respond and she was able to visit the day after first communicating to meet my dogs. She texted me pics of my boys while I was away to let me know they were okay. I left a lot of notes on medicine and vitamins they take and she left notes back to let me know what she gave them and when. I highly recommend her.

Lexi did a wonderful job watching our dogs! She was very nice, quick to respond, and sent plenty of photos of our dogs while she was spending time with them (I could tell they enjoyed her company as well). She was very tidy and left our home just as we left it. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter!

About: I’ve have had dogs since I was 12. For the last decade, I've been the go-to dog sitter and trainer among my family and friends. I love working with dogs regardless of age or size. I will work with you to ensure your dog is safe and engaged during their stay. I only use positive reinforcement with my own pups and will do the same for yours. I am patient and diligent in my training. I’m currently a stay at home dog dad. Your dog will be under supervision at all times and will have plenty of opportunities to play, go on walks, go to the park, and get *all* the pets. I have two well socialized dogs of my own. A 9 year old female German shepherd named Lucy and a 7 month old male border collie named Lincoln. We have a fenced yard, doggie splash pad, and small pool. We also make frequent trips to various dog parks and will with your permission of course. Your dog will be allowed full run of the house if temperament allows but we have several kennels and dog proof rooms if they need space to unwind on their own.
