“Suki had a blast with Nicole and her husband! Nicole sent daily photos, updates on activities, and I brought home a very happy —and tired—dog. Suki will no doubt miss all the activities and snuggles! Thanks!”


“Maryah was awesome. Even when our plans changed because of hurricane Lee she was accommodating. Great country location for the dogs. I would highly recommend her and have no reservations using her again in the future.”


“Just got done with my family beach week, and we relaxed and enjoyed knowing Carlin was in very carrying hands with Michael. We got plenty of pictures and even a sweet drawing his sweet girls made for her. We will definitely be back!”


“Dayana took such good care of Roxy. She is settled and well, when normally she is extremely nervous. My Roxy felt safe. I would rate higher than 5 stars ⭐️, if I could.”



“Debra sent a message and a picture every day Meadow was there which was very settling for our family. She really paid attention to Meadow’s behaviors and actually had to take her to the emergency vet for a medical issue. This medical issue would not have been discovered had Debra not been paying attention to the change in Meadow’s behavior. I highly recommend Debra and was very pleased with the care Meadow received!”


“John did a great job taking care of our girl for over a week! He was communicative and sent photos and videos every day, which meant so much to us. He will take great care of any pet!”


“I left my golden retriever with Briana for the weekend. She provided pictures, updates, and my dog was happy as can be during pickup. He played great with her dog and I will definitely use her again.”



“Luiz and family have taken care of Becky on several occasions, and have always been excellent.! Becky Luvs being there Terrific yard, very accommodating, Molly is her friend”


About: Hi! I would love to take care of your dog like he/she was one of my own! I love all animals and so does my family! I have had pets and dogs since I was a child and so has my husband. I am a stay at home mom at the moment and my husband works full time. We live in a single family home. We recently lost our 14year old mini schnauzer, he is the one in our photo gallery. Someone who will always be with me is my daughter, who is one year old and my son who is 5 years old. Please contact me with any questions. I am currently a stay at home mom and will be able to walk your dog or let them out in our yard through out the day. We have a yard and a senior dog to keep your dog some company. We also have a crate if that will keep your pet more comfortable.

“Phil was great with our pups when they stayed the weekend! He sent lots of pics, and they looked happy and relaxed at pickup time. I would recommend and leave my dogs with Philip in the future.”


“Carter was great! Very responsive and sent updates about Eloise’s stay. She seems like she had a blast- going on hikes, playing with the other pups - given how tuckered out she is now :) thank you!”


“Jessica and Josie were wonderful with Miss Ruby. Even understanding her occasional accident in the house as coming from anxiety. Possibly due to construction noises which were expected to be gone before Miss Ruby’s visit. It changed my perspective from paying for Dogcare to paying to have Miss Ruby share her joy with Josie and Jessica and their family. ???”


About: I’m a very responsible and loving pet owner. Have rescued many pets and now have found myself with some free time and would love to help new pets and people! With notice, I am completely free on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays & Sundays. (Monday, Tuesday & Friday I can be available for a few hours in the am) I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to play and a kiddie pool to cool off in! I have three very friendly doggos myself but plenty of space so they can be kept separate if you desire.

About: I have cared for animals, including rescues puppies and have some experience with senior dogs as well. I love to get to know them and their individual needs. I currently am a stay at home mom and so I have flexibility to come to your home and care for your pet while you’re at work or away on vacation. I will give your pet the love and attention they deserve and need. Taking them on walks and playing in the yard (dogs). Cats I will gladly pet and play with as well.

“I wish I could give more stars! Haley was heaven sent. She gave us a full tour when I dropped my dog off, she sent so many adorable photos and videos during the stay, and completely kept my mind at ease the whole time. We will definitely be using her for all future trips!”
