15. Troy G.
About: Important to read all: I highly recommend booking 45-60 days in advance. Spaces fill up quickly especially for holidays!!! Very loving & nice home to hang out and receive attention. You will receive photos and video updates during their stay. 1. Kennels. At night and the short periods we are away from home, they will be in a kennel. But lots of free time while home. 2. We follow all of your care instructions. 3. Please inform my us if your fur baby is a jumper. 4. Sometimes we have dogs from different homes but they they are kept separate as necessary. 5. Pitbulls are the sweetest dogs and are welcomed when my children are not around, due to an unfortunate accident. 6. Males tend to mark their territory, therefore we may use a band-daiper around their abdomen as needed. They are cleaned and sanitized after each use. The yard is fenced in at 5 ft tall. Jumpers are never left unsupervised and safety is our top priority! We have multiple dogs from multiple families, but if we don’t think they get along with other dogs, they will take turns playing outside and inside. We feed and care for them according to your routine. Safety is very important. We may use a muzzle when introducing your dog to another dog. If there is any aggression, we don’t let them play. If you want your dog to play alone, please let us know.
16. Alisa I.
“Alisa has owned one dog, which recently passed, and she was caring and considerate right up to the very end. She and her family like dogs, and would like to have another, but it’s impractical right now. I think your pet would be in good hands with Alisa and the whole family.”
17. Jackie R.
“Jackie was fantastic. We appreciated her quick response to our request and her follow through to meet with us was exactly what we needed. Jackson enjoyed his time with Jackie. I will reach out to again in the future.”

19. Kaylee M.
““Kaylee is truly the best when it comes to dog sitting and caring for dogs! She is incredibly reliable, always going the extra mile to ensure dogs feel happy and loved in her care. She has a natural ability to connect with dogs, even those who are shy or anxious, and her calm demeanor puts both pets and their owners at ease. Whether it’s taking them on fun walks, feeding them on schedule, or simply spending quality time with them, Kaylee treats every dog like they’re her own. I couldn’t recommend her more highly for anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog sitter!””
20. Tori H.
