Lauren and family are so great to my beloved Rocco. I was able to be away and did not worry about his care. I knew he was in good hands which was such a peace of mind! I will be rebooking and encourage anyone who wants to be away from their pet with no worries to do so as well!

I could not have asked for a better dog sitting experience. I have an older dog and I was very selective about who I left him with on my first vacation away from him. Ellen sent me regular updates and pictures so I could see how he was doing. Her communication was excellent. She accommodated my drop off and pick up times. When she had a request to keep another dog for a couple of days in the middle of my dog’s stay, she contacted me to ask if that would be alright. It seems my dog was very comfortable with her at her place, and I am very grateful for that.

Mary was absolutely amazing with Layla! She communicated consistently and thoughtfully, sending pictures at least twice a day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Layla usually goes on a bit of a hunger strike when I leave, but she was so comfortable with Mary that she ate every single meal. That alone says everything! Layla looked genuinely happy in every photo and was clearly very well cared for. Mary also shared how much she loved spending time with Layla, and it truly sounds like they both had a great time together. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be using Mary’s services again in the future.

Maolin was a great caretaker for Nash. We were away on vacation for 10 days and she sent daily photos and videos as well as took Nash to the local dog park to play around. She really seemed to care a great deal for Nash as like she was her own. Would definitely use again and refer her to others!

The whole experience was amazing. It was great to do a meet and great prior to Henry’s drop off. They welcomed Henry as he was their own pup. He stayed with them for three nights and I never had to worry about him. We got several pictures and videos as updates ! We are so pleased to found such a good option when we are away.

Stellar, exceptional, dope, and just SUPERCALIFRAGALISTIC, this all describes the superior service Zahria provided to my baby and to me. She was great with communicating everyday sometimes multiple times per day which definitely set my mind at ease. Sending pictures and videos of their activities. Her goal was to make him comfortable being away from me and me comfortable being away from him, well she nailed the assignment. Honestly, she treated Onyx so well I was afraid he wouldn't want to come back home, lol. I will most definitely be using her again as soon as the need arises and for as long as she is available. Zahria is highly recommended by me, if you want your baby treated like a King or Queen. Thank you Zahria you are a tough act to follow.

Angie was wonderful with our one year old mini bernedoodle Reggie. This was only the second time he stayed in someone’s house and the first time with Angie ! She’s a happy, very positive person and gave Reggie lots of TLC while we were away. She also had to administer pills to him and she wasn’t bothered by that at all. We plan to use her services again in January 2026.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and horses since I was 12 years old. My responsibility’s included feeding, walking, bathing , litter box changing , shoveling stalls . Currently I am working full time 8hr shift. I am looking to take care of pets part time after work a few times a week and some weekends . I do not have a fenced in yard so I mainly walk dogs in my neighborhood or take dogs to Eagle Creek Park if I am allowed . I have an annual park pass and use it often . I like to run so sometimes I will run with the dog .

Debra was fantastic! I felt absolutely comfortable leaving Cece and Vivian with her. She was very communicative and kept me up to date. She also went out of her way to accommodate my schedule for pick-up and drop-off. Cece and Vivian had a wonderful time and came home happy and exhausted. I would definitely recommend her.

My puppy had such a good time with Zahria! We dropped him off and hoped he wouldn't cause too much distress, he can sometimes be a handful, but she took care of him very well. We got him back to some very excited tail wagging and he gives her four paws up!

Mary was amazing. My dog Thyon is a sweet but skittish boy. Since making a big move from the country to the city, he has suffered from anxiety which he needed to be medicated for. I tried traditional boarding facilities however they were not a good fit. There were too many loud noises and he always came home stressed and nervous. Mary provided a wonderful environment. Not only was he able to quickly adapt and feel comfortable, but he seemed to thrived there. He was running in the yard with her dog Elle. Which he has not done since we moved months ago. I have finally found a place where I am comfortable to leave my boy and know he’s being well cared for. Thanks Mary!
