“Jessica took great care of our dog Deacon on such short notice. We appreciated the updates of photos and videos that showed he was having the time of his life. We will definitely use Jessica in the future for our boarding and doggy dare care needs 😊.”
“Jermaine was awesome! Our dog, Reese, is getting older and I feel like a traditional kennel is a little too loud & stressful for her. Leaving her with Jermaine gave us the peace of mind we needed. He was communicative and positive. She came home happy & healthy. We are very grateful and will absolutely use his services again”
“Katherine clearly has a great love of dogs and animals in general. When I picked up my dog Frannie, while it was clear she was happy to see me, she was also sad to leave. If we are ever needing boarding on the Eastern Shore again, we would go right back here.”
“Lindsay was so great with Olivia! She was able to watch her very last minute and work with our schedule. She kept me updated with pictures. When we took Olivia and brought her back the second night Olivia ran right up to her and her daughter crying with excitement. She came home all tired out which showed how much fun she had.”
“Jenny took great care of our dog, Chestnut, while we were on a weekend trip. She was very responsive and sent us lots of pictures so we knew he was doing well! Chestnut also had a blast playing with her pups!”
“Jen is a true dog lover! She is so warm and thoughtful. Lucy had such a great time staying at her home and playing with the other dogs there. Jen sent me videos and pictures while I was traveling and it made me feel so happy and secure that my sweet pup was in excellent hands. Thank you Jen!”
“Marie was absolutely wonderful watching our dog, Kobe, while we were away for about a week. From the start her communication was superb. She was patient and understanding throughout the booking process. She kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was clear how much she cared for him. She brushed him, played with him, and made sure he was happy and comfortable the whole time. Kobe came home well taken care of and loved, just like he would be at home. Marie is trustworthy, attentive, and truly goes above and beyond. We’re so grateful for her and would not hesitate to have her watch Kobe again. Highly recommend!”
“Vy provides a safe, loving, and enriching home for our dog to feel comfortable while we are away. We had flight complications while traveling and she was very accommodating alleviating any additional travel stresses related to our dog’s care.”
About: There has never not been at least one dog in our family home. I was the neighborhood dog walker as a child and have since cared for and taken in dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes from fosters to pets of friends. I work 100% remote so I’m home all day and night. My workday normally consists of a computer on my lap and pups snuggled on all sides with plenty of time for potty breaks! I have a small fenced enclosure for spending warm days outside and a very large yard and quiet area for taking walks. Plenty of space to get exercise!
“My family and I were in town for a couple of days and we needed a last minute dog sitter. Cait had some good reviews and so we decided to move forward and have her dog sit. She was awesome! Our dog had a great time and Cait said she enjoyed playing with her dogs. If we’re in town again, we would definitely reach out!!”
“Stacey was wonderful! She kept us informed, sent lots of pictures and really kept our dogs happy. We were new the area and she helped us find a Vet and a Groomer. She goes above and beyond and you can tell she genuinely loves dogs. We are so happy we found her to watch our little guys.”
“Excellent service, very nice and communicative, sends pics and vids! This was my first time ever leaving my pup with anyone other than family and I could tell he enjoyed every moment of it! Definitely will be booking again!”
“Zelie was great! She responded quickly to messages and was kind and flexible especially when we asked to add an additional night to our dogs stay at the last minute. She also sent good updates, pictures and even a couple short videos! I definitely hope to book her again!!”
“Julie is one of Milo’s favorite sitters! This app only allows 30% tip and she is worth so much more!! She takes pictures and updates me through out his stay and shows that she is very attentive to Milo!! Thanks Julie!!!”
“Tango had a wonderful time, and was very happy with her stay with Dawn and her family. She fit right in as a member of their “pack” I was very pleased with the care she received, she had plenty of fun and stimulation too.”
“Brooke was awesome with my dog. Being the first time she left with someone outside of our family member, she adjusted well and Brooke was great with her. Thank you Brooke for making me feel at ease with her being with you.”
“Jeren was absolutely incredible! I had to make several changes within a few days before our booking and she was so quick to respond and accommodate. Jeren constantly kept us updated with pictures and videos of our baby throughout his visit. We are so grateful and will definitely be booking again!”
“Fantastic! We will use Terri again & again. Cooper was at ease when we first did a meet & greet. He was happy when we went back for his stay & when we picked him up. She sent text & photos and checked in, which we appreciated so much. We could see he was happy, running with another dog who was also staying & even with her uncles dog sometimes. She has a great large fenced in area & lots around to keep them busy.”
“Jennifer went out of her way to meet us beforehand. It made us feel really comfortable leaving our dog with her. She was extremely flexible and understanding when our schedule changed as well. It was much appreciated!”
