“Left our 12 yr. old springer spaniel with Mike and Sherry for 10 days and were very pleased that he seemed to be very comfortable and right at home. Enjoyed the many photos that were sent along with updates on how he was doing. Will definately call upon them in to future.”
“Darcie was wonderful with our dog, Remi! She sent us lots of photos with updates throughout his stay and we felt completely at peace knowing that she was taking care of him while we were out of town.”
“Everything went great as expected. Thanks for keeping us posted with all the pictures and videos. Holly was for sure in great hands and will look to schedule another visit in the future. A++”
“Emily did a great job caring for our dog while we were on vacation for a week! She sent pictures and updates daily and was very easy to communicate with. She treated our dog like one of her own, even letting him sleep in her bed when he didn’t want to sleep in his kennel! We would definitely use Emily again!”
“Andrea was a great host to our KoKo. She kept us in the know with status updates as well as pictures. We contacted her last minute, but her communication and willingness to serve was evident as we came up with time lines that worked for her and us. 10/10. Andrea will get our service in the future.”
“Carol was so kind and warm and my sweet Daphne felt very at home with her and Shorty while we traveled. I appreciated that she did a meet and greet beforehand and that she sent photo updates while we were away. When our return flights were delayed, Carol was gracious and flexible about the extra time. I feel lucky to have found such a great person and petsitter.”
“Kathleen took great care of Poppy. She gave him tons of walks and love and even introduced him to her friends. She went above and beyond feeding Poppy healthy food that she purchased herself. Kathleen sent Poppy home clean after giving him a bath. None of this was requested. This shows the love she pours into the animals she cares for. A++.”
“Corinna was awesome! Everything went perfectly from the initial conversation to plan Max’s drop-off all the way until pickup. Corinna was attentive to all of Max’s special needs, she was very accommodating & had a wonderful set-up for Max to feel comfortable. She also had excellent communication skills, providing many photos & updates throughout his stay. I highly recommend Corinna. A++”
“Anna-Lena is the person you can absolutely feel safe and comfortable having your best friend stay with her! She was incredibly helpful with watching over my dog by having great communication, greeting the dogs and keeping me up to date with pictures and little notes on the stay! I know my dog enjoyed herself and I was able to enjoy myself knowing my dog was with someone that takes safety, security, and also fun into staying with her! She will always be my first choice whenever help is needed again!”
“Cathleen was more than we could have asked for. She took the time to meet us beforehand, to get to know us and our dog. She sent us pictures and updates throughout Sammy's visit. She met us at the drop-off and pick up to chat. We highly recommend her….”
“Shalom was very well taken care of, she was comfortable and happy when we came to get her. She even seemed to have gained a little weight which we've been trying to get her to do for awhile now! Terry was very kind and polite and we'd gladly take Shalom back to him to be watched whenever we need!”
“Thanos seemed like he really enjoyed his stay with Olivia and family. I truly appreciate her accommodating for his last minute stay. She communicated well and sent lots of updates and pictures. Thanos came back to us with a smile and new friends. Definitely recommend!”
About: On top of being a veterinary assistant for over three years, I have also taken care of pets of my own and family and friends' since I was very young. I began working at the humane society at 14 and haven't stopped working with animals since! I have a B.S in Animal Ecology, and am currently working towards becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician. I currently work full-time at a veterinary hospital with weekends free. I never work past 6:30pm and never go in before 7am. Once a week I am off at 2pm, and another day I do not go in until 12pm. This provides me a flexible schedule to take care of your furry kiddos! I have a large yard that will be fully fenced in by the end of the summer, and a very friendly dog myself who loves to make new friends. I also have very tolerant cats that adapt to new friends as well! I have a spare room and crate available if needed. I have my own nail trimming supplies and transportation for myself and even for your fur baby if needed!
“Taylor was absolutely incredible with my little kittie boy Blue! I was scared to board him as he's only 6 months old but Taylor took great care and showed deep compassion for him. He came home excited and almost refreshed. I highly recommend Taylor if you're looking to board your cat or any other animal. Her passion and love for animals is very evident. Taylor will be the first one I call next time! Thank you so much Taylor! 5 Stars aren't enough!”
