“Wendy took such good care of my boy! She is very communicative and was flexible when my flight was delayed (departing and arriving). Most importantly Cody came home happy!”

“Heidi Was great! Drop off was easy. Aspen (Dog) grew up on a small farm, so it was like visiting his old home. She sent photos of him to me and that warmed my heart. I would 100% recommend Heidi to anyone!”


“Serena was able to help me out by watching Leo for a week on short notice. She was very pleasant to communicate with and attentive to my pup's needs. I received prompt responses to my questions and was updated with photos of Leo enjoying his time at her home. I especially loved seeing him waking up and doing his silly morning dance, which made me feel at ease during his boarding. Serena and I were also able to arrange transport for drop off which was a huge help. Thank you Serena!”

“Mikey was the most wonderful caregiver for our two dogs on an extended trip we took out of state. I could tell when first meeting her that she had a warm heart for dogs, and through the regular updates she sent I could see that our boys were fully welcomed into her home (including treat time and snuggles on the couch with other family members). She took careful note of our feeding instructions for one of our pups with a sensitive stomach to make sure he had a good stay (which he did). After their time with Mikey, I’m sure that our dogs thought they were the ones getting a vacation! We would happily book the boys again for another stay with Mikey.”

“Lindsey, Leland, and their kids took amazing care of our 13-year-old Golden Retriever, Callie. She had injured her back leg about a month before her stay, and they were incredibly thoughtful in managing her needs. They made sure she got all her medications and adjusted her walks based on what she could handle. I’m pretty sure Callie felt like she was at a spa—between the gentle attention, extra brushing, and love from their three wonderful kids, she was clearly in great hands. I accidentally mixed up the pickup date by a day, but Lindsey and Leland were incredibly accommodating and kept Callie that extra day without hesitation. I was so relieved, knowing she wouldn’t have to be shuffled to a different home just for one night. Throughout her stay, they regularly updated us with photos—Callie lounging in the grass, out on a walk, or happily curled up in someone’s lap. The peace of mind they gave us was priceless. If I could give Lindsey and Leland six stars, or more, I absolutely would. They went above and beyond in every way.”

“We are so pleased with the attention and love that Kim and Dave have given to our dog. I am not certain that she missed us very much. She felt right at home within minutes of meeting them prior to being boarded there. It was so wonderful to feel secure leaving her with people that truly care about her comfort and happiness. They are great with sharing photos and responding to messages and sharing daily photos too. We will be using them again for future needs.”

“Ashley and Robbie were so great! I was concerned my dog Nova might not settle in..she is a bit crazy. She did great and Ashley dealt with her rambunctiousness! She sent pictures and videos all the days and they were great. I could see Nova was settling in and becoming part of the family. I would highly recommend bringing your pups here..they will be treated like family!”

“Kara did an excellent job caring for our dog and took care of him as if he was her own dog. She was willing and able to keep his general daily routine which kept him comfortable, happy and healthy. She was attentive to his needs and sent regular updates with photos. Kara is a wonderful and loving sitter and I highly recommend her.”

About: Hi pet parents 👋 A little bit about me - I grew up in Texas and have years of experience with caring for animals. I love spending time outdoors. You can find me snowboarding, paddle boarding, hiking, camping or rock climbing. 🧗 I work remotely and my schedule is flexible. I take my dog on 3 walks a day. In the mornings we take a 4 mile walk and are super active on the weekends going swimming and hiking. Multiples walks a day. I enjoy taking mine to the dog park and on hikes. We also don’t mind being lazy and cuddling on the couch :)
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated pet professional with 11 years of experience in veterinary medicine, certification in dog training, and active board member to a local animal shelter. So caring for animals is truly my passion and profession. My background allows me to provide a level of attention, safety, and knowledge that goes far beyond typical pet sitting. I’m comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including puppies who are still learning the basics, senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care, and pets who require medications or special routines. I’m also happy to reinforce training, structure, and good manners during my visits so your dog stays consistent with what they’re learning at home. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and routines so pets feel secure and stress-free while you’re away. Because of my veterinary background, I’m also experienced in monitoring for health concerns and administering medications when needed. Whether your pet needs playtime, structured walks, training reinforcement, or calm companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I strive to give owners peace of mind through communication, reliability, and professional-level care. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐶🐾 With my current schedule, I wake up early to make sure every dog’s needs are met—whether that’s potty breaks, medication administration, or starting the day on a calm routine. After I return home from work, I spend plenty of time with the dogs for play, exercise, enrichment activities, and their regular feeding routine. My home environment is structured, calm, and designed with dogs’ safety and comfort in mind. With my background in veterinary medicine and dog training, I focus on maintaining clear routines and a low-stress environment so dogs settle in quickly and feel secure. Dogs staying with me follow a consistent daily routine that includes potty breaks, enrichment, rest time, and play. Structure helps dogs relax and prevents overstimulation, which is especially important for puppies, high-energy dogs, or dogs who thrive on predictability. I have a large backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time for exercise, play, and mental stimulation. Playtime is always monitored to ensure dogs stay safe and comfortable. For safety and proper rest, I also have Impact Kennels available for structured downtime. Crate time is used as a positive, calm space for dogs to decompress, eat meals, or sleep—similar to the routines many trainers and veterinary professionals recommend. For dogs that enjoy extra activity, I also offer optional hikes and adventure walks, providing additional exercise and enrichment depending on the dog’s energy level and owner preferences. Every dog is different, so I tailor care to their personality, energy level, and routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away.
“This was our first time ever using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! They took such incredible care of our dog and truly treated her like one of their own. It was obvious she felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time she was there. She got along so well with their dog, and they played hard every single day, which made us so happy to see. We also really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and communication while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”

“Amazing dog sitter! Super reliable, caring, and great with communication. We got regular updates and our pup came home happy and relaxed. It’s clear they truly love what they do. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”

“Suzanne and her family took great care of my timid Brittany. We had never been separated before, and it was only the 2nd time in her 6 years of life that she spent nights away from home. Suzanne's son spent a lot of time with her, coaxing her into trusting him and feeling safe with the new situation. Suzanne sent me pictures and text updates, letting me know how my dog was doing at settling in with them. By the time I returned from my trip, Jolie was feeling at home with Suzanne and her family. My ability to enjoy my vacation with my family was made possible by the care and attentiveness Suzanne focused on my dog. I would definitely board Jolie with Suzanne again. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a good, caring home environment for their dog when they have to leave them for a while.”

“Kaitlyn was awesome - very detailed and great at giving updates and taking our dog Blue out for tons of walks and adventures like he loves. We will use Kaitlyn gain in a couple weeks. So far superior than using a kennel. Thanks! The Jordan’s”

“My 2 dogs were very happy there and came home and just as they left they spent a week there with Rebecca. She is very kind and loves all the animals. Highly recommend her! I will be using her again! Thank you so much for reliving the stress of leaving.”
