“Amy did a great job taking care of our dog. I felt very comfortable working with her and I could tell she cared about animals and would treat our dog with love. I hope to have her watch out dog again in the future.”


“Our dog Comet came home after a week and was in the best overall condition ever. He just went about normally and was just in great shape. No anxiety or tiredness. When we picked him up he was part of the household and just showed he was totally comfortable in the house.”


“My dog Bear had an amazing experience with Hannah. He loved the environment and socialized with the other dogs. Hannah sent pictures and communicated frequently. I love the set up that he had his own space or he can have one on one time or socialize with the other dogs. I highly recommend Hannah. She has a lot of experience.”


“Nya was so sweet while watching my dog. I wasn't sure where her building was and she ran to where I was so that I would not be late to church. She took care of Nikki and said that he was such a good dog. I will definitely use her again and she is sweet as pie and you can tell that she loves taking care of dogs. Thank you Nya”


About: I have been taking care of dogs of every kind since the summer of 2016. Family and friends have come to me to care for their fur babies when needed. If boarding , please note there are 3 children in the home ages 6,7,8 and 2 cats who’s shots are up to date as well ( the Yorkie in my first to photo is my late MJ, the other photos ,are of pups I’ve boarded/have done drop in visits over the last few months ) I currently don’t work right now , so I’m open to most schedules that I’m given .I offer discounts to veterans and/or pet owners with disabilities as well 🙏🏽 30$ for 2 -15 minute walks per day , plus feeding and play time if needed. MESSAGE FOR RATES AND DETAILS Your fur baby is guaranteed love and absolute care 💙🙏🏽 If needed I will walk them or bathe them. If yard is fenced in, I let them out a couple times during the day, feed them at allotted times or when needed. It also depends on the level of care your pet needs

“Haley and her fur babies were amazing hosts to my little blind guy Luca. Always sending pictures and updates. Thank you so much for the peace of mind I got while having him stay with you.”


About: I have been taking care of dogs both large and small, young and old, for as long as I can remember! I got my first dog when I was 3 years old, and have had a dog by my side ever since! I have dog sat for friends and family members with dogs of all different breeds, backgrounds and ages. My first job as a teenager was at a local dog kennel & vet office where I learned a lot about helping a dog feel safe and comfortable while away from home! We have a dog (35lb 2 y/o golden doodle) who absolutely loves making new friends, and a cat who keeps to herself but gets along well with other animals when she does come out to play. My husband works from home and my work schedule is flexible meaning the pets are not frequently home alone. I have a very flexible work schedule paired with my husband working from home most days of the week to prevent extended time home alone for any pets. We have a dog who loves to make new friends and a cat who is comfortable around dogs but tends to keep to herself. We have a large yard and go outside with the dogs (on leash) to ensure they stay safely in the yard at all times.


“Jill was a GREAT dog sitter for my two dogs she had them for four days. She sent updates and pictures and put me at ease knowing my dogs were in good hands. I would recommend her service to anyone looking for help.”


“Samantha and her family were excellent and attentive to our two fur babies. She maintained the schedule we keep for them at home so it was very easy for them to transition once we got them back. They had full range of her home and was able to play and be themselves. We highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a good sitter and we’ll most definitely be using her again in the future!”


“We loved getting pictures from Betty’s stay. Valerie and Gabe were very accommodating and flexible. Communication was fantastic, would definitely recommend!”


“Haley was amazing - she asked lots of questions to make sure she took the best care of our little guy, paid perfect attention to his schedule, and sent tons of pictures and updates all weekend! She went absolutely above & beyond in every way, thank you so much!!”
