“Matt is kind and patient with my Italian greyhound. He sent several text updates with photos. He took the dogs on walks and played outside in his big yard - she was happily worn out at the end of the day. My pup loved him! I will definitely book with him again and recommend him to friends.”

“Khaytlen is an incredibly responsible and loving dog owner who goes above and beyond to ensure her pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for. She has three dogs of her own, and they are not just pets—they are family. She takes them on regular outdoor adventures, including hiking, road trips, and water activities, making sure they get plenty of exercise and enrichment. Her dedication to their well-being shows in how well-trained and happy they are. With her experience and passion for animals, I have no doubt she will provide safe, loving care and excellent service to any pet entrusted to her.”

About: Do you have a large or reactive dog? Finding trustworthy sitters or boarding can be difficult. Well, i can help. I regularly volunteer at local shelters and specialized in large dogs and behavior cases. (Ask me about Baloo, love sharing his story). As a dog dad myself i will provide great love and care as if your furbabies were my own. I work from home remotely. Typically we do a morning walk before i start work, short walk during my lunch break, then a good long walk when i am finished working. While i am working unlimited potty breaks in the yard as requested. I have a 6 foot privacy fenced in yard. I live about .5 miles away from a park with a dog park. Any medications can be given as requested. For aggressive dogs we obviously do not go in the dog park, but i can walk around the exterior to assist with training.




11. Val S.


“Val was very accommodating on short notice and with a holiday weekend. She sent photo updates of the boys during the stay. The great thing was as soon as we pulled up to the house the pups were very excited and when they came home you would have thought they went to camp, they were so happy! I recommend and would ask Val to watch my pups again.”


12. Jaiden R.

“Jaiden has watched my pup many times. She is super flexible and helpful when you have a last-minute needs. She treats your dog with upmost care and make sure you’re updated throughout the day that your baby is safe. I know that he is fully cared for when I’m at work which is such a nice peace of mind. I will keep coming back and you should too.”

14. Mariana M.
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Mariana! She has been taking care of my dog daily, and I can see just how much my dog adores her. Every morning, my pup is excited to see her, tail wagging, and the bond they've built is so clear. Mariana is incredibly attentive, always making sure my dog gets the right amount of exercise, playtime, and cuddles. What I love most is how much she tailors each day to my dog’s personality and needs, whether it's a long walk, a game of fetch, or just some quiet time together. It's such a relief knowing that my dog is in such loving, responsible hands. I also appreciate that Mariana has a super friendly, medium-sized dog who is playful and great with other dogs and humans. My dog always has a blast with her, and it’s so heartwarming to see them getting along so well! I can always count on Mariana to send updates and photos, which makes me feel so connected to my dog while I'm away. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, look no further. My dog loves her time with Mariana and her dog, and I’m grateful for her exceptional care and warmth every single day!”


15. Paul G.
“Paul accepted my last minute booking request. I had to adjust my drop off/pick up times & he was flexible with that. My dog Eddie can have a bit of anxiety when he isn't with his family. When he was picked up he was very relaxed & happy; so I know he was well taken care of. I will definitely use Paul again.”


16. Sienna W.

“My dog Modi absolutely loves Sienna! She does amazing with him and he always comes home EXHAUSTED. We had modi go to someone else while I wasnt in town,mistake there on my part, and she was so willingly to take him in an hours notice. I always get nervous leaving modi with people but we have constantly gone back to Sienna for daycare and will use her for boarding if we ever need it. She also sends us updated pictures of him, which I love. 10/10 recommend and I can’t stress how amazing she is ☺️”
