If I could give Jacqueline 10 stars I would!!! She took AMAZING care of our Blaikey during her stay with her and her awesome family. She was sweet, attentive, loving, affectionate, and accommodating to our sweet little girl. Her daughter was amazing with Blaikey and so gentle and kind with her. She sent pictures and updates every day and went out of her way to make sure Blaikey was comfortable and felt safe and secure in their home. Their dog Mocha was a wonderful friend to our dog and so sweet to her. They really loved each other 🥰. I will absolutely utilize Jacqueline again to watch our dog and recommend her to everyone!! She is amazing and will treat your dog like family because to her- they are!!!!😁🥰♥️

Grendel loves visiting with Lynn. I am very thankful for Lynn’s patience and understanding regarding my being late due to a flat tire. She had big plans this evening and still managed to make everything work out.

My dog had another wonderful stay with Charley and Anthony ! They even were able to keep her for a couple extra days when I got sick and had to go to the doctors. Awesome caretakers ! They provide lots of updates and pictures so you know your pet is having an awesome time. 😊

Sara and Cassy are wonderful! I was worried about leaving my little guy, but they made him feel right at home. I could not be happier and I’m pretty sure my pup can’t wait for me to go on another trip so he can go to Sara and Cassy’s again!! 🥰

Rebecca was the best! We had never left our baby with anyone. We are never away from our babygirl. We went and met her and her family. They was both the nicest persons ever. The house and yard was clean and a very good vibe came from them and their home. When we took Roxi to Rebecca, we told her that she is in training, and the things we needed her to do during her stay. She did everything we asked of her. She answered all my text throughout Roxi's stay. And sent pictures. I will definitely use Rebecca if we need another sitter.

Kassandra was very thoughtful and gentle to my pet. I could tell my pup enjoyed her stay b/c she returned happy and did not hide behind the couch in angry protest ha ha! I so appreciate Kassandra’s attention to details and true concern for my pup’s well-being. I highly recommend! But please do not book her on days I wish to ;) as I would like first dibs for her caring for my pup!

Bailey did a great job watching my cat. Took care of him well and even isolated her own cats when mine was being uncomfortable around them, despite their friendly attitude toward him. When I came to pick him up she had all his things packed and even had him in the carrier which is always the most difficult part. I hope Arlo gets a chance to visit her again in the future!

Brynn was welcoming and reassuring when we dropped our dog off. She asked good questions and seemed very comfortable with our high energy dog. Bryan provided messages when we asked about Bailey. She was very prompt in responding. I would use Bryan as a boarder again.

Lindsay is an angel! I was looking for someone last minute and she contacted me right away! No one wanted to take Rocky in due to him being a bit aggressive and reactive but when we went to drop off Rocky with Lindsay, he immediately took a liking to Lindsay. He immediately wagged his small tail and didn’t even growl at her or anything. Lindsay definitely kept us updated throughout our vacation with pictures and she kept us updated with things Rocky did! Once his stay was over, we went to go pick him up and he looked like a new dog, he didn’t bark at us and was very calm. Lindsay definitely has an amazing aura with dogs that even Rocky who is aggressive loved her! She also let us know that Rocky is such a big sweetheart, thank you so much Lindsay! I will definitely trust Lindsay with Rocky again and all my other pets when I need someone to take care of them :)

About: I currently have two small dogs who I take care of full time. I’ve had them for 2 years now. I love playing with dogs, rubbing their tummy, or just hanging out with them. If your dog has separation anxiety that will not be a problem. One of my dogs is the same way and I wouldn’t mind being there full time for your dog. Pet care fits into my schedule perfectly because most of my days consist of being home taking care of my two small dogs. I’m also a nursing student so it helps that I have a lot of time after studying to play with the dogs/puppies. I have a fenced yard. It is pretty big. In order to keep my dogs safe I always make sure doors are closed before letting them out and as a special precaution I like to add an AirTag to their collars in case anything happens (has not happened yet but it’s better to be safe than sorry).
