“Sylvia and her partner Micheal provided a wonderful boarding experience! They had different schedule options for me to choose from and I got to pick what schedule worked for my pet, and my budget. Thank you both so much!! Will definitely board with them again ?”


“Erin was amazing! She sent pictures of our pups and was very easy to communicate with. We highly recommend her services and will definitely be a repeat client.”


“Chris is 10/10! I always feel so comfortable knowing our baby is with him when we're away! She's happy, makes herself right at home and he is the best about being available and providing updates! As long as he'll have us, we'll always use Chris for pet sitting! You won't worry about a thing!”


“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Allison and her husband as our dog sitter for Greta on Rover! From day one, they went above and beyond to ensure Greta felt comfortable and loved. It was clear from the daily updates and pictures we received that Greta was not just being cared for, but truly treated as one of their own. They made sure to play with her every day, which Greta absolutely loved. These updates were not only reassuring but showed us just how well Greta was adjusting and thriving under their care. It's evident that Allison and her husband are genuine dog lovers and have a special touch when it comes to pet sitting. We couldn't be more grateful for their kindness and dedication. Greta came back to us happy and well-adjusted. We highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a caring and reliable dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our Greta!”



“Susan is wonderful! She was a great host for our little (older) Zoey and our big (younger) Hannah. She has a wide open and secure property that our pups enjoyed exploring. We had peace of mind with daily photos and funny videos. Highly recommended!”

Where else can you drive by cows & llamas in the next two properties down the road on the way to drop off? .Many thanks to Randy & Mary!”

“As always, Krista is awesome with Doune, our dog. I sometimes wonder if he really wants to come home. She always sends daily pictures and updates.”

Lots of walks, playtime, swimming in river and play pool. Ashleigh was great about communicating and sending photos. Thank you so much Ashleigh for taking such good care of our baby!!”


About: With 63 years of loving and caring for dogs, my life’s journey has been beautifully shaped by the incredible companions I’ve raised and adored. From my childhood pup to my German Shepherd, Bailey, who blessed me with 8 puppies, to rescuing sweet Poncho Via in Mexico—who lived a joyful 16 years—I’ve experienced every chapter of a dog’s life. In 2006, I fell in love with Australian Cattle Dogs, raising Tucker Station, Willow Springs, and Parker Station from birth. I stood by them through the toughest times—Tucker’s battle with congestive heart failure, Willow’s courageous fight with cancer, and Parker’s journey through chronic kidney disease and heart failure, before he crossed the Rainbow Bridge in May 2025. This isn’t just pet care—it’s my life’s purpose. I specialize in puppy training, providing compassionate senior care, and making anxious or special-needs dogs feel safe and loved. With me, your dog will be treated like cherished family—because that’s exactly what they are.” Caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my daily life—it’s not a task, it’s a joy! From morning tail wags to evening snuggles, my days revolve around walks, playtime, and making sure each pup feels loved, safe, and happy. Whether it’s an energetic puppy needing structure or a senior dog wanting quiet companionship, I adjust my day to meet their unique needs. Simply put—dogs aren’t a part of my routine…they ARE the routine! Safety and trust are at the heart of everything I do. In my home, dogs enjoy a clean, secure environment with cozy rest areas, supervised playtime, and a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor fun. Whether they’re playful pups or senior snugglers, their comfort always comes first. In my clients’ homes, I respectfully follow all routines and care instructions to keep pets feeling safe and secure in their familiar surroundings. During walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize safety with secure leashing, close supervision, and plenty of affection. No matter the service, you’ll always receive regular updates and photos—because I know how much peace of mind that brings!

“Jessica and family were awesome! Our girls were quite unsettled, as (in 7 years) they'd never been away from my wife and I. They gave them a ride for their money. We appreciate the boarding opportunity.”



“We left our goldendoodle pup with her for a few days while we were out of town and she did so well with him! He loved playing with her pup all day and Trinity made sure to keep me informed of how he was doing :) 100% recommend!”
