We came all the way from Baltimore to visit friends in the area, and had to board Willow. It was Willow's first time spending the night away from us since we got her 4 months ago. Tracy was super kind and loving toward our anxious 7YO doggie. She sent photos and was watchful enough to notice some behaviors of Willow's that seemed to possibly indicate a health problem (it resolved itself). We felt Willow was getting the best possible care next to our own. We will definitely use Tracy again next time we come to visit Athens County! Thanks Tracy!

We were very comfortable leaving Ursa with Rebecca and her pack! Ursa seemed to enjoy her visit and was well taken care of. We definitely recommend Rebecca and plan to be repeat customers!

Deana was so sweet and you can tell she really loves dogs!! We got feedback and pictures every day with updates regarding how he slept, how he ate and how many walks they did. Her own dogs are very accepting of new visitors (both human amd canine) ? I would recommend Deana to anyone who needs their pet well taken care of like it was her own!

I know how scary it can be to leave your beloved pet with someone, but let me just say they will be in great hands with Schuyler!! She is professional, and cares deeply for dogs - as well as has a lot of knowledge about them and what different breeds need . I appreciated her prompt responses and communication with me , providing me all the updates I wanted while our dog Burrow stayed with her ! Would not hesitate to use her again in the future!

About: I've cared for my family's Shih Ztu ever since I was 8 years old. Throughout his 13 years of life, I've also cared for my brother's Yorkie, Lab, and Golden Retriever on multiple occasions!! Now, I have my own 6 month old puppy named Zeke💕 I'm currently a full-time college student doing this as a side job. Dogs bring me an unbelievable amount of joy and are a great way to relieve some stress from school!! If I'm ever needed inside of your home, I will treat it as though it is my own. I am very responsible and understand how to clean up after myself and your doggy!

About: I grew up very passionate about animals, and it didn’t help that we had 4+ dogs, cat(s), a rabbit, goldfish, and more. It was always viewed that I would pursue a career as a veterinarian because I care for common house pets, insects, and wildlife. It’s humorous to think of how obsessed I was with Steve Irwin. However, I followed a law enforcement and military-associated career, hoping to open my rescue one day. Animals are easier in packs, so nothing will ever be too much. I am a dedicated professional with a full-time job, earning my second master's degree, if not third, and more; if it’s one thing, I will always go out of my way for any creature. I will be able to help take care of your furry animal before and after work. Depending on your location and if it’s everything but boarding, I may be able to provide weekend care. Therefore, it is crucial that your animals can be left alone for 8-13 hours. I am able to provide medication if applicable but will need your pets preferred way of receiving their medicine. I own a 2 story home with a fence in yard. There are security cameras around the premises. If there are signs that your animal can not be trusted, they will be placed in a kennel while I am at work for their safety and my own dogs/cat safety. My boyfriend works within the county that we reside in and will be able to quickly go back to the house if a situation arises. All of my animals have been trained to be socialsble with other people and pets.
