“Nancy was the best sitter we have ever had! She took phenomenal care of our miniature golden doodle. He is on several medicines and she managed all of them perfectly. She sent us daily updates including photos and videos so we could see how well he was doing. He got along great with her dogs. We feel very lucky to have found Nancy! Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dog!”
“We felt so comfortable leaving our sweet pup with Tami. She has a loving, secure, and enriching home/outdoor area for the dogs. She sent us updates and photos everyday and was very communicative. We highly recommend and will definitely use Tami again!!!”
“Heidi is great! She thoughtfully cared for my picky, excitable German Shepherd mix. She has a large dog friendly yard and kept us informed on how he was doing. I'd recommend her without reservation. Thanks, Heidi!”
“Laurie was just great in every aspect of boarding our pooch Mikey. She was very accommodating to our schedule and was quick to respond to calls and text. But most importantly, Laurie was fantastic with Mikey. One could immediately tell she is at ease with dogs. I would certainly use Laurie on our next visit to Prescott and recommend her to our friends with dogs. John and Nancy F.”
“We are absolutely over the moon with the attention that Jalali gave to our two large dogs. We did two days of daycare with him before they had several night stay. Each time we pulled up to his beautiful, fully fenced in rural property they would get so excited and they knew they were in for a grand adventure, he was wonderful about exercising them and letting them have their down chill time while he worked from home. Jalali was very responsive and communicative with photos messages and I felt that my girls were in good hands. Jalai will be our go to Dog Sitter when we are back in town , I am very grateful and thankful that he took such good care of our dogs.”
“Danielle is AMAZING! I have a tiny, 3-month old puppy and had never spent a night away from her until this visit. Danielle was great with communication and updates and even sent pics of my little girl on walks and playing. When I arrived, Rue was acting like she was right at home and totally didnt want to leave her cozy new digs. I highly recommend Danielle, an obvious dog lover and just one of those genuinely good people you so rarely encounter. I will absolutely be bringing my little gal back for more love in the future. Thank you guys for such an awesome experience!”
“Everything from the meet-and-greet to the pick-up at the end went very smoothly. We were able to make our trip to Colorado without worrying and our young dog had a great time with Dwight and his family and his dog Eulie up on the hill.”
About: Hello I'm Madeline, and I'm here to care for your pet just as I do for my own! I love cats and dogs alike, and have taken care of many different breeds and personality types over the years. I've yet to find any pet that I can't handle! Your pets will be loved and cared for so you don't have to worry while you are away :) For Boarding: I live on 5 acres of a wonderful pinon paradise, where your dog(s) can play and hike to their heart's content! I take my own pup for 3 walks a day, so yours will get plenty of exercise. And if they don't mind the car, I'm happy to take them to parks and longer hikes if you like! They can sleep in their own bedroom or in a fully furnished cosy workshop if they prefer. I work from home so will give them my full attention 24/7. I pay very close attention to any specific needs for diet, behavior, or whatever special instructions you give. I love to send photos and updates as often as you like, so you can see they are happy and healthy! If it's drop-in visits only, I give my full attention to playing, hugging, entertaining your pets the entire time I'm there. I hate leaving my pets behind while I travel, so I know how to ensure other owners that their pets are cared for as if they were my own :) I currently work my own schedule so can be flexible with whatever your pets needs may be. If they are boarding in my home, they will have 24/7 attention. I own 5 acres with a good portion fenced in if staying at my home. I love energetic hikes and walks and will cater to your dog's fitness level. I take my own cat outdoors on a harness and would be happy to train yours too! Whatever level of care your pet is accustomed to, I will deliver the same while they are in my care.
