Mattey, my dog, loves Stephanie! His new best friends are Ryder & Max, her dogs. Stephanie made our trip wonderful because she let me know how Mattey was doing and sent lots of pictures!

Mark and Vicky are amazing sitters. My Tilly is a little sad for a couple days after coming home. They are the best and I’m sure it’s a real vacation for her while we’re gone. I highly recommend them.

Gail was great and so accommodating to our travel plans. Coomunucation was good and she took really good care of Odin. I felt very safe leaving him in her care.

Nathan & Jenna were amazing! They shared great photos and videos of our pup while we were away that included updates on how he was doing in the different environment. They must of done a great job of keeping him busy too because he was passed out for the rest of the night when we got him back. We will definitely be asking them to sit again :)

Some of the best dog sitters around! I truly don’t think you’ll find anyone more invested in keeping your doggy safe, cared for and loved. You MUST book with Vicki!

Thank you so much for your great service! We loved the small polaroid picture with the fall décor and the "trick or treat" bag of treats you sent him home with! Thank you!

My original sitter canceled the morning before my trip. I was frantically trying to find a new sitter and Kathleen let me book quickly without hesitation. I am so thankful for that! I recieved messages and pictures while away and I could tell Myles had a great time and was well taken care of. Thanks again!!

Aimee did an incredible job taking care of my dog! From the meet-and-greet we knew it would be a great match, but she sent lots of photos and gave my dog so much love I didn’t worry for a second while I was on vacation for a week. I’m looking forward to my next trip so my dog can go back and see Aimee and her family again!

Kathleen and Nathan took excellent care of our dog. We were passing through the area on our way home from the east coast and needed a place for Dilly to get some exercise and play before we continued our trip. Dilly enjoyed playing in their large, fenced yard and had fun playing with their kids. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Dilly was happy and relaxed and ready to go the next day.

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.

Was nervous about boarding Stella since we’ve never done this. I appreciated the daily updates, pictures and walks that Stella thoroughly enjoys. It seems that Stella was right at home and probably didn’t mind her lengthy stay with Mackenzie & Jared. I know that if we needed to board Stella again we’d definitely choose Mackenzie!

Jenna was so great with our dog! We really appreciate that she only takes one family at a time. She sent updates which was comforting and thoughtful. Our dog felt very welcome and comfortable. I would highly recommend her! Hoping she’s available the next time so our dog is happy and comfortable again!

Andrea was great, she is knowledgeable about dogs and worked with our dog. She was sitting a couple other dogs at the same time and the day I dropped her off , she introduced Daisy to a dog of a similar temperament so Daisy would have a friend. Also we were later than expected getting home and when I asked Andrea said we could pick Daisy up the next morning instead of the night we planned to pick her up.

Sarah and Brandon were absolutely wonderful! They took amazing care of my dog during her week-long stay, and I could really tell they treated her like family. They sent regular updates, photos, and responded quickly whenever I had a question. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in great hands. I highly recommend Sarah and Brandon to anyone looking for kind, reliable and attentive pet sitters!

About: I have helped take care of friends' and neighbors' dogs/ pets for several years. I am very responsible and dependable. My husband and I have previously fostered dogs as well. I am currently working full time but have some time on the weekends to love on pets! My (human) girls would also love to help your fur babies play until they're worn out! We have a large yard that would provide plenty of room to run around. We do not have a fence so we would not be able to safely care for a dog that would take off.

Ramona and her family were so great with our golden retriever puppy Hayes. She was friendly when we met her and her kids were so great with him! Ramona sent us pictures while we’re on vacation and it looked like he was having the best time. We would definitely recommend her!
