“Jaya was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! We had a situation that required a last minute booking and she was very accommodating. She and her family loved on our two pups, a bernese and a siberian huskey, as if they were their own. They even got out huskey to eat which is always tricky when he's not with us. They added fun veggies to their food and kept me updated with many photos and texts throughout the stay. I will definitely have our fur babies stay with Jaya again and I highly recommend her to everyone!”

She sent me lots of pictures every day, which made me feel so much better. She even made a daily chart of everything Milo did, including how he was eating and playing. I could tell she really cared about him, and I would definitely trust her to watch Milo again. I highly recommend Stephanie!”

We had a worry free vacation as Mohita kept us updated on Romeo with pictures and how he was doing with his diet and other activities. Overall we can’t expect anything more from Mohita and family.”

About: I have a lot of experience volunteering at various animal shelters and caring for cats and dogs of all ages. I have had elderly, disabled and animals in need of help due to an illness in my care as well. I have also had limited experience training younger dogs. I am currently working completely online, so I will have plenty of time to care for animals! However, I will have commitments on most weekends. I have a spacious house, with multiple levels, which can be blocked off in case an animal may not be able to use them. I also have a large backyard with plenty of room for larger animals to run around. I have no other pets. I am also able to crate a dog in case they are crate trained, and am quite flexible with any other accommodations for an animal.

About: I’ve been caring for and raising dogs since I was 14, so I have years of hands-on experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. Over the years, I’ve had a Pug, a Pomeranian, and I currently have a Golden Retriever, which has given me experience with everything from smaller companion breeds to larger, more active dogs. I understand that every dog has their own routine, comfort level, and personality. I’m patient, attentive, and focused on making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, basic routines, or just giving them plenty of attention and companionship, I treat every dog like I would my own. I work full-time but I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention without pets being left alone for long periods. My schedule is flexible on both weekdays and weekends, so I can easily make pet care part of my daily routine and adjust around each pet’s specific needs and schedule. I treat every pet as I would my own, with plenty of care, attention, and patience. I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in their own home, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship so they feel at home while their owner is away.

Nico was terrific. Highly recommend! He watched our two dogs over the weekend and did an amazing job transitioning them to his home. Our little guy George suffers from anxiety, but he settled right into the new environment without any issues. Kept us informed throughout the weekend with updates and pics. Thanks!

Monica was great with our pup. She was very flexible and accommodating of our last-minute booking. Our older dog was very comfortable with her, which was unusual of our pup. Monica sent daily updates which we really appreciated, and even mitigated our pup's aging bladder issues. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for peace of mind when leaving their pup behind!

Shannon was AMAZING with our pup! She sent us pics and funny updates throughout his stay, which made me feel so comfortable knowing that he was being taken cared of. She took him on tons of walks and to the fenced in dog park. She also let him make himself comfy on her couch and bed so he was cozy. I would definitely recommend Shannon and will definitely book with her again if she is available.

I can't say enough good things about Anoti! She and her family welcomed Dante with open arms and really made him feel at home. Dante is very high-energy, and Anoti accommodated nicely with plenty of long walks. I could see from the photos how much fun Dante was having and how much love he was getting. I would definitely seek out Anoti for our future boarding needs!
