“Im so grateful the the love and attention you give Toby, as evidenced by the regular updates, photos/videos and that he is clearly sad to leave you! Thanks for being so flexible with times and last minute requests!!”


“Best sitter in the area!! Lilly is exhausted and she misses Smokey so much! We had to move our trip dates due extreme weather in Texas and she was totally fine with it. She took great photos and videos of Lilly playing with Smokey, Laronna is the best!!!”


“definitely recommend! she was very flexible on watching Henry last minute on thanksgiving day! kept me updated and came home worn out and very happy! thank you :)”



“I have no words to express how pleased and blessed we are to have found Katie on this platform. For a long time, we hesitated to leave our puppies Dexter and Lilly in someone else's care due to Dexter’s medical condition who suffers from seizures, thyroid, and arthritic problems, which requires medical treatment 4 times a day with everything what that includes. Also, Lilly being a very affectionate rescued dog but super nervous and difficult to get on trust with other adults. Finding Katie has allowed us to feel very relieved and confident that our puppies are receiving not only the best care and attention, but also the most genuine affection that anyone can give us. Like everything in life, there is a time to adapt to changes, however, Katie and her family made this adaptation for Dexter and Lilly and for us also the best! Katie, thank for your patience, understanding, constant communication and love for our babies, we are happy to be able to count on you for the care of our furry babies.”


“Kristin did a great job taking care of my dog. She communicates well, shared photos/video during the boarding period, and was flexible with pick-up/drop-off times. I will rebook with her next time I’m heading out of town.”



“Chloe had a blast!! She was completely worn out by the time we picked her up! I loved getting pictures and updates of her while I was away. Will definitely be using Brittany again!”


“"Brandon was very good with our dog, who is large and can have high energy. He asked for any specific care details and provided brief updates throughout our trip. He kindly accommodated an extra day for us on short notice when we had to delay travel due to inclement weather. Would recommend! We will definitely use Brandon again in the future, Moto had a great time!"”


“Sierra and Matt took great care of my baby while I was out of town! I definitely plan to book with them again. They kept me updated and at ease with daily pics and videos (overthinking dog mom here). My dog is very social. He loves kids, people, and other dogs. So I love the fact that he had playmates and was able to bond with their kids and dog as well. I know he had a blast and will be returning again :)”


“Carolina is a keeper . We will definitely use her services again. A very warm and friendly home. Carolina is fantastic to deal with. She kept us updated daily and sent photos. She was available to talk to and truly cared about Loki’s needs. We loved her!”


“This was our first time leaving our boys with a sitter and Melanie was fantastic. She was quick to respond and put our minds completely at ease during the meet and greet. Both dogs are recent rescues and they don’t always warm up to strangers right away, but they liked Melanie and her husband instantly. They got along well with her dogs, and I could tell they were going to have a great time. We got messages every day while we were away with updates, pictures, and even a video of them. It was a huge relief to know they were in good hands. When we picked them up they were happy to see us, but were clearly having fun. This was our first time using Melanie as a sitter but it won’t be the last!”


“Oreo loved his time with Masha and family. My dog Oreo is very picky with people and other dogs but he really enjoyed his stay with Masha and family, and especially Bonnie the family's Yorkie. I definitely recommend over putting your doggy in a kennel to have them stay with Masha, Bonnie and family. This was a sweet treat for Oreo as he got to play versus being stuck in a kennel. Highly recommend 👍”


“Katie saved me with a last minute request and took amazing care of our 1yr old boxer. She sent photos throughout and when we picked her up I could tell she was at ease from her stay. She took her on walks, played and cuddled, and will definitely rebook with her.”


“Desiree was wonderful with our two dogs. Our pups can be demanding and anxious, and Desiree provided them with excellent care, making them feel comfortable and at ease. We are truly grateful for her help.”


“Holly and her family were awesome! It seemed like Luka really enjoyed his time! Thankful for the updates each day as well as putting up with my big boy!! Would definitely book again!!”


About: I've taken care of dogs for a number of years. Great Dane to yorkies. We just love to hang out and have a good time. I am retired, so I'm home all day. Snickers my beagle would love to make some new friends. So I am available for most anytime. I have a six foot fenced yard. My beagle Snickers would love to have other dogs come over. Plenty of dog blankets and toys for all.

“I can’t wait to book McKenna again! She was wonderful, very accommodative, and took great care of our puppy, Mochi. I was gone on a work trip for an entire week and felt guilty for leaving him that long, but she kept me updated with messages, pictures, and even some videos every day. He had so much fun! She took him on walks and to the dog park. I highly recommend her!”


About: We love dogs in our house. We've had 3 dogs of different sizes at one time. I loved going for bike rides with my Husky and my Border Terrier. Now we have a small Border Terrier named Indy. I love training dogs to do tricks, and just cuddling up in bed or the couch. Your dog friend will be have a blast with us and get all the love. I particularly like large dogs and I don't mind them jumping on me when they're excited, they just think they're little in their heads. My kids, of course, like the little ones and are always ready to play and be gentle with the little guys. Your dog will be just one more family member to us. I work from home, and I can take frequent breaks for walks, playtime, potty breaks. I rarely spend more than a couple of hours out of the house if I do go out.
