“Alara was absolutely wonderful with our dog. Not only did she constantly update us throughout the week on how he was doing, but also treated and cared for him like he was one of her own. She also gave us super helpful tips and recommendations. It is clear that she has a vast wealth of knowledge when it comes to anything dog related!”

“Sam was the best! Very accommodating and you know that she cares about animals. Treated my dog Jaxie like her own and I could tell she was loved and had a great time away from home. First time using this service and my expectations were blown away, will definitely rebook with Sam in the future! Would give more than 5 stars if possible.”

“We had a wonderful experience boarding our mini golden doodle, Gigi, with Amy. From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear that Gigi was in great hands. Amy sent us daily pictures and updates, which truly eased our minds while we were away. It was heartwarming to see Gigi having such a good time and being well cared for. We could tell that Amy genuinely loves animals and went above and beyond to make sure Gigi was comfortable and happy. We will definitely consider using Amy’s services again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Jeffrey was wonderful with my dog. My dog is high energy and he came home exhausted. Jeffrey was knowledgable in the best practices for safe play and how to minimize risk while introducing dogs which was very important for me. He kept me updated and I received daily photos. I would absolutely use him again to watch my dog.”


About: I’ve had pets all my life. I’m retired so I have time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’ve worked with deaf dogs and administered meds for both young and older pets. All in all my theory is that pets just make one’s life all the better they are truly gifts to us. I am retired so I have a lot of flexibility to stay with your pet or have your pet with us in our home or walk your dog when needed. I have a fenced yard and two sweet dogs who get the run of the house along with your dog, including the furniture. It’s a happy home here.

“We had such a wonderful experience with Paige. She took great care of our dog, Shadow, and kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated. Shadow had a blast playing with Paige's dog, Mazie, and came home happy and tired. We highly recommend Paige and will definitely be using her again!”


“Dianna was the best ! She sent many pictures and videos of the pups while we were out of town. She has a large fenced yard and the pups came home exhausted and relaxed. We would highly recommend booking with Dianna !”
