“Kristal took great care of our fur baby while we went on vacation for a few days. She sent pictures regularly and when we picked up our little dog, she was happy and not at all stressed like she gets if we board her at a kennel. Communication was regular and clear. I highly recommend Kristal for your pet sitting.”


“Mary and Norm welcomed Bambi in as part of the family and I could tell from the photos it took her no time at all to adjust to her new surroundings. She can't wait to stay with them again.”


“Monica is awesome with our Sky. She genuinely loves dogs and takes really special care to give ours the attention that she needs. The communication is great and she has been very flexible with our erratic schedules. We’re very happy to have met her and we feel very comforted knowing our Sky is in her good hands”


“Cassandra has watched Phoebe, our energetic golden doodle, many times. I feel so comfortable with Cassandra watching Phoebe. She sends a lot of pictures, communicates regularly, and genuinely loves watching Phoebe! I feel confident in her care of Phoebe and will continue to entrust Phoebe with her!”



“We could not have found a better family to take care of our dog while we were away. He was so loved and Jennifer regularly sent me pics and updates. This family will be my first choice in boarding for future needs.”


“First of all, 5 stars is not enough!! I have to say Diana is a true Gem. I normally do not board my 2 labs, but I was in desperate need of someone to take care of my 2 girls for the weekend. We met at a dog park so my dogs could meet her 2 dogs (very friendly sweet babies). Right away I could feel her compassion and love for animals. The visit was fantastic. I felt relieved and knew Diana would be the perfect dog mamma for the weekend. She kept me updated with videos and photos the entire weekend. I will definitely without a doubt leave my fur babies with her again, and I HIGHLY recommend her for your sitting needs. Thank you so much Diana. I was able to enjoy my weekend and not worry about my babies! Marlo K. - Spring Grove”


“The absolute best! Jordan cared for our Bowie and especially our Senior Lola with the utmost care and attention. He was amazing with both dogs and we will use him again without question.”


About: With over 5 years of experience in dog care, I’ve had the pleasure of working with dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Whether it’s playful puppies or senior dogs needing extra attention, I’m dedicated to providing personalized care tailored to each dog's needs. My experience includes: Puppy Training: Helping young pups with basic commands, potty training, and socialization. Senior Dog Care: Offering gentle, attentive care for older dogs, including medication administration and extra comfort during walks. Specialized Attention: I’m skilled in managing dogs with anxiety, food sensitivities, and medical conditions, ensuring they feel comfortable and safe. What sets me apart is my commitment to creating a calm, loving environment where dogs feel at home and their unique needs are met. I always take the time to understand each dog’s personality to provide the best care possible! I am fully remote at home, so Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine. I’ve designed my schedule to be flexible and reliable, ensuring your dog gets the attention and care they deserve. Here's how it fits into my week: Daily Walks: I make time for multiple walks each day, tailored to the dog's energy level and preferences. Playtime & Socialization: Whether it’s a game of fetch or some bonding time, I ensure dogs get plenty of interactive play and mental stimulation. Feeding & Medication: I follow specific feeding routines and can administer medication if needed, ensuring your dog’s health needs are met. Flexible Hours: My schedule is adaptable, with availability during weekdays and weekends to accommodate your dog’s routine and any last-minute care needs. With a balanced approach, I ensure dogs receive consistent care and attention, seamlessly fitting into my day-to-day activities. Your dog will always be in great hands! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether they’re in my home or yours. Here’s how I ensure a secure and trustworthy environment for your dog: Safe Environment: My home is dog-friendly, with a securely fenced yard and plenty of space for indoor and outdoor play. I take extra precautions to dog-proof my space to prevent any accidents or escapes. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I respect your space and routines while ensuring your dog is comfortable in a familiar environment. Supervision: Whether at my home or yours, your dog will be supervised at all times to ensure they are safe and engaged. I follow specific routines to keep pets feeling secure and happy. Personalized Care: I tailor care to each dog's individual needs, whether they require extra attention, special dietary requirements, or have medical needs. I always check in with pet parents and provide regular updates so you can trust your dog is in good hands. Trustworthy & Reliable: I treat every dog as part of my family, offering them affection, routine, and a loving touch. I build trust with pets by being consistent, calm, and understanding, especially when they’re adjusting to a new environment or routine. Your dog will feel right at home, whether they’re with me or in the comfort of their own space!

“Thank you Yolanda and family for loving Evie like your own! I am very grateful that Yolanda cared for Evie like I would. This gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation! Upon greeting, her and her husband were so welcoming and nice people and I knew right away Evie would be in good hands! She was very communicative and responsive when needed! It was just the right amount of communication that didn’t have me worrying but also didn’t bother me. Yolanda sent picture and video updates which I loved! She reached out with questions right away and responded quickly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone I come across! I am truly grateful to have found her to give my Evie the care and love! I felt she was safe and a home away from home! Best wishes to Yolanda and her family and I will definitely be back in the future!”
