About: My love for animals shines through in every moment I spend with them. I’ve had pets my entire life and began walking neighborhood dogs as a kid, quickly realizing how much I loved caring for animals. I’m experienced with pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments — including dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, reptiles, and aquatics. Whether furry, feathered, or scaled, your pets will be cared for like family. I’m also fully insured, giving you extra peace of mind while you’re away. Offering trusted, personalized care right here in your community. Currently providing services in The Brio, The Reserve, Country Point, Whispering Pines, Colonial Woods, Station Yards and beyond. Pet care is my full-time passion! I’m dedicated to providing superior care when you need it. Every service is thoughtfully tailored to your pet’s individual needs. Walks and Drop-Ins are scheduled with plenty of dedicated time, allowing me to be fully present for both my Day Care and Boarding guests. I take a flexible approach to pet care, tailoring my attention to meet your pet’s individual needs…whether they’re high-energy and adventurous or laid-back and easygoing. My goal is to provide a loving, safe environment where your pet is always my priority. You’ll receive detailed daily updates, complete with photos, so you can feel confident knowing they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for.

Catherine was great! She treated Maci like one of her own, even allowing Maci to sleep in her bed at night. Catherine sent pictures daily and was fast to respond to my e-mails. I would absolutely use Catherine again FIVE STARS

Christina was amazing with dudley. She sent photos every day as well as text updates to let me know what they doing at the park and on walks and how my snugglepuff was adjusting and settling in. She gave me early notice that the food was running low so I was able to send her more well before it ran out and became an emergency. He also enjoyed playing with onyx, the neighbor dog, and I was thrilled he had the canine company. She was very loving and kind towards duds, and I am sending him back next week for 3 more days to board while I wrap up a work event.

About: My fiancé has been a pet groomer for 18 years and started a grooming business (Krystal’s Klassy Kutz) in our home a few years ago which has been thriving! Always being around the pups that come to our home for grooming services inspired me to also work with dogs. I started only with her clients but decided to branch out and offer my services to all. I can provide up to date references upon request. Your dog is never left alone. Someone is always home. I’m also available for home visits. You can contact me 24/7 I’m always available for you. Completely fenced in, private yard for your pup’s safety. Plenty of play time throughout the day. Paws n claws on TV all of the time!

About: For the comfort and safety of every pup, I only host one family’s dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog my full attention and maintain a calm, low stress environment. My care goes beyond the basics. it’s rooted in genuine love and experience. My journey caring for Kayne, our special needs dog, taught me how to handle medical routines, provide comfort, and stay attentive to every detail. That experience shaped my approach to every pet I welcome. I understand that each animal deserves patience, respect, and love. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, they’ll always be treated like family in our home. We’re CPR and First Aid certified, giving you extra peace of mind while your pup is in our care. Pet care is woven into my daily life and something I genuinely love. As a stay at home mom, I’m home full time to give every furry friend constant love and attention. Our days revolve around walks, playtime, and snuggles. Caring for our late dog, Kayne, who developed a spinal injury and heart condition, taught me that true care takes patience, compassion, and adaptability qualities I bring to every pet I meet. In our home, every animal is treated like family. I provide a clean, safe, and active space with multiple walks, a fenced yard for play, and individualized routines. Through my experience caring for Kayne, who required special medical attention, I learned how to adapt to any level of care whether it’s energetic puppies or older companions needing extra comfort. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands that treat them as one of our own.

About: I have 15+ years of owning my own pets (dogs, fish, birds, and hamsters) and caring for other people’s pets. I feel comfortable feeding, bathing, walking and providing any other type of care the pet needs. I truly love animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a six-year-old son who absolutely loves animals as well, so pets staying in our home should be friendly and comfortable around children. We are a caring, animal-loving home and can’t wait to meet and care for your pets like they’re part of the family! I am home full-time, so your pets will always have love, attention, and supervision throughout the day and will never be left alone for long periods. I’m able to take dogs out frequently for walks and potty breaks, and our apartment complex also has a fenced area where pets can safely run around and play. My goal is to make your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while you’re away! I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. In my home, pets will receive constant supervision, plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of love and affection. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while sticking to their normal routines as much as possible.

Jennifer was absolutely incredible while caring for our dog, Loki, during a week when my husband Joey and I were away on a cruise. Leaving your pet behind is never easy, but Jennifer made the entire experience feel effortless and reassuring. From day one, she went above and beyond to keep us connected. She sent frequent updates, along with tons of photos and videos, so we could see exactly how Loki was doing. It wasn’t just check-ins—it genuinely felt like we were still part of his daily life. Seeing him happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for gave us so much peace of mind. Jennifer handled him with such patience, attentiveness, and warmth that he seemed completely at home. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she looks after, treating them like her own rather than just a job. I couldn’t recommend Jennifer more highly. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely wonderful with dogs, she’s the one. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again.

About: Throughout almost my whole life I’ve been taking care of a bunch of different types of animals. I took care of a Goat once IN MY APARTMENT. HAHAHA I had her in the balcony with a lot of plants so she could eat. But then we had to let her go as she grew up because there wasn’t a lot of room in the apartment for her. Then I took care of my 4 dogs, Dory, Kylie, Kevin and Max. They were my reason to be. I don’t have them anymore, but I will always remember them in my heart. ❤️‍🩹 I have now a little cutie cat, called Coffey. She’s like my child, I love her with my life. I’m in college right now, so I would like to have this job as a part time. And the only reason I’m taking it as a job is because I need to pay college if not I would have been doing it for free. I like to see what are the needs of the pet first. I like to check if there’s any dietary restrictions, any medication, any allergy or any other personal indication for the pet. And after I have that covered I do whatever the owner allows me to do like playing with them in the yard.

Our dog Pepper had a wonderful stay with Matthew and Kristin over the Thanksgiving holiday. They were super communicative and sent photos of our pup throughout the weekend. I think Pepper wants us to go out of town again so she can go back and see her new friends! Thanks for everything, Matthew and Kristin!!

Catherine was amazing! Her and her husband were very sweet and knowledgeable! They took the time to do a proper meet and greet which helped my dog get to know them and made my experience so comforting to know exactly where my dog would be as well as get to know who my dog would be staying with. They sent updates throughout the entire time. My dog was so happy, well cared for, and felt at home. Highly recommended booking Catherine!

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Lauren and Kenny. They took amazing care of my 9 month old pup Melo, while I was away for the week. From the very beginning communication was clear and consistent I received regular updates and videos that really helped put my mind at ease. Melo came back not only happy and healthy but noticeably calmer and more balanced which really says a lot about the quality of care he received. It’s clear that Lauren and Kenny treats the dogs they watch like their own. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!
