Nicole was kind, accommodating , flexible, and our dog Peach really did well with her! We received many updates with photos which was so much fun and appreciated! We didn’t even have to ask for those updates either 😊

Zelda suffers from separation anxiety, but she quickly adjusted to Monica and the new surroundings and appeared to have had a relaxing and restful 3-day stay. Monica kept us well informed throughout the stay and sent photos of our happy dog.

Tiffany was OUTSTANDING!!! My puppy had a ball staying with her, her husband, and the other dogs she had boarding at their home. She was patient with him as he got over his initial shyness, created an atmosphere that made him very comfortable, and even took time to teach him a couple of things (four paws on the ground and how to lessen his inclination to jump on a person when he is greeting them! She also sent videos and pictures to show me how much fun he had and how comfortable she made him (I especially loved the plush cot she created for him! I plan to create one of my own for him!!!!) I love her love of dogs and plan to board him with her in the future!!! Thank you so much Tiffany!!! Gizzmoe appreciated you all as well!!!

Sophie did not want to leave. Two very nice but different dogs live there, and both did well with Sophie, who can be a little standoffish. Will return.

This was our first experience with Erin and we couldn’t be happier. She took great care of Cali, kept us updated throughout the day via text and pictures. She was very flexible in our pick up time due to the circumstances with not knowing exactly when we would be back. Prompt response to our texts. Will be taking Cali back for this weekend.

We had a great experience with Caitlin as a sitter. She was able to accommodate our last minute request and made us comfortable about leaving our Bernedoodle in her care. With a fenced in yard she got lots of outside time and exercise. I’m sure we will be booking again in the future.

Angellynn was absolutely great! She took wonderful care of my 8-year-old dog and treated her just like she was at home. Ginger loved all the attention she got from them. They played with her and loved her. I will definitely be taking Ginger to stay with Angellynn again. Highly recommend her!

Kaily and Matt were great!!! They bailed us out in a pinch by watching our two pugs. We received numerous photos and videos of their time away. Couldn’t be more thankful for the care our dogs received and the services Kaily and Matt provided!! Thanks

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets—dogs, cats, and small animals. From daily walks and feedings to administering medications and providing comfort, I’ve built trust with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their routine, understand their behavior, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you always feel connected. With school starting in August I will be available Thursday and any weekend. I will also be able to work with you during the weekday! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible—feeding them on schedule, giving plenty of love and attention, keeping their space clean, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I respect their environment and follow any specific instructions closely. While I don’t currently have a dog in my own home, that allows me to give your pet my full attention without distractions. My dog currently passed so we have an electric fence but that’s it! If your pet stays with me, they’ll have a clean, calm, pet-friendly space with lots of one-on-one care, playtime, and love. I’m all about making them feel at home—whether it’s their place or mine.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and pets for over 20 years and truly love animals of all kinds. I’m dependable, attentive, and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, medication routines, senior pets, and giving lots of affection. I’ll treat your pet like family and keep you updated with photos and messages so you feel at ease while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting throughout the week with advance notice, and I’ll do my best to accommodate last-minute needs when possible. Your pet won’t feel rushed or overlooked in my care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions carefully. I provide a calm, loving environment with close supervision, plenty of attention, and regular potty breaks or walks. I’m happy to send photo updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy.

Great couple to watch our pup. We wanted someone with a fenced in yard and other dogs to help socialize and tire our pup out and that’s exactly what we got. Our girl was happy to come back after the initial meet and greet and happy to book with them in the future.

Brenda kept our three dogs and one cat in our home while we were gone for two weeks. She was terrific! We got a picture a day with a note and when we returned we found the pets and Brenda smiling happy and the place was very clean. Thank you so much Brenda. This will let us travel more often.
