“Katherine provided excellent care of Ellie while we were away visiting family. She sent daily videos and pictures of Ellie, which the family enjoyed seeing. We could see the love and attention Ellie received while we were away.”
“Michael was amazing! He kept us posted on Shaani’s Activity multiple times a day. He took great care of her like one of his own dogs. Asked plenty of questions to make sure my dog was well cared for including her meds. We would certainly board her again with Mike.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Marlies stay. Tons of communication and pictures. Lots of great buddies to play with. She was so well taken care of. It is wonderful not to have to worry when we are away. We are repeat customers and will book for future vacations. I can’t thank you enough !”
“It was a great piece of mind having Tracy watch our girl! Tracy was so courteous and sent us updates with pictures of our pup. Will definitely use again and refer others.”
“Michelle did a great job taking care of Sam for me. Sam came home after a week with Michelle happy and healthy. I would not hesitate to have her take care of my dog again if needed. Thanks again Michelle.”
“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”
“Emmanuel is absolutely amazing guys, please listen: I had a Labor Day vacation booked and the Wednesday before we were leaving (we left Friday afternoon) our sitter cancelled. We have an almost 5 month old Dane and a 4 year old husky, both purebred and the handfuls that they sound like. Emmanuel cared for them, sent us pictures of the new friends they’d make, them eating, using the bathroom or even getting exercise. My Great Dane boy came home, if not at the same training level, better from the socializing and lifestyle he had with Emmanuel. I recommend him 10 times over and want to use him for an October vacation I have planned!”
“I highly recommend Johanny. She send me videos/photos of my two doggies everyday, sometimes multiple times and they were enjoying every minute. Definitely I will rebook with her.”
“Just wow! An outstanding experience. My pup was beyond happy with his stay at Megans home. I’m really grateful for her having the availability on such short notice. Thank you 🙏”
“She is wonderful. Sending us pictures and letting us know how puppies are doing. They adjusted very well and it seemed that they were in a friendly environment. We would definitely book her again for our next trip”
“Harley enjoyed her stay!! It really put our minds at ease she was taken care of and made new friends!! We would definitely recommend and we will be contacting for future visits!! Thank you!!!”
“Haylie was absolutely amazing with our dogs. For a short weekend she watched our two goofy and very energetic dogs. She took great care of them and let them play outside a lot! She let us know how our dogs were doing and made sure they were happy and healthy!”
“My boy Veto enjoyed his 9 night stay with Lorraine. We did a meet and greet prior and he warmed up to her and her husband right away. He came home tired from all his walks and took some nice long naps after his stay. All communication with Lorraine was very prompt and I felt very comfortable with leaving him in her care. I would definitely recommend Lorraine!”
“Alonni is amazing and took wonderful care of our pups. She sent tons of pictures and gave us updates while we were away. She genuinely cares about each and every dog and we can’t thank her enough.”
About: I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur baby with someone new. That’s why I go the extra mile to build trust and create a calm, caring experience for both you and your dog. Whether it’s a quick walk, a day visit, or overnight boarding, you can count on me to give them the attention and love they deserve. Available on weekends for now, will soon be opening up a doggy daycare and it’ll be full time. Reach out to me for more information In your home, I will follow all the instructions necessary to have a successful day with your pup. I try to also do some training while taking care of the pups to keep them mentally stimulated as well!
About: I spent my youth training to be a vet and fostering dogs. I learned a lot at vet school, namely that I couldn't ever deliver the final act of compassion. So, I turned my attention to my true passion - caring for dogs! I have been dog sitting for over 15 years and I love it. Every new dog that I meet reminds me how much I love dogs. I am flexible to the needs of every dog I care for and will make their experience with me as similar to their home life as possible. I have two dogs of my own, but they LOVE meeting new dogs to play with. If your dog is not as keen to new friendships, I can separate them all with ease. I have only one hard line, I need to meet you and your dog before the stay. I have learned that it is the best way to ensure your dog's comfort in their stay. I did not always adhere to this and I have seen some very stressed out fur babies. I want your fur pups happy and healthy as much as you do! Thank you for your consideration. I work from home so, I will be with your dogs all day. If we have any grocery trips or daycare drop offs, they will be crated for those brief periods. We keep our dog-less activities to a minimum during pet stays. We have no fence and our dogs run off-leash. With your dogs, I will walk them leashed because dogs (like children) test boundaries. We also go to creeks and hikes very often, and your dogs will join us leashed (if you approve).
“Gabriella was great! She stayed in communication with us throughout the week and opened her home up to my dogs Waffles and Roxy. Waffles had such a good time she didn’t want to leave! We picked up both dogs happy and exhausted (in a good way) from their vacation with Gabriella (and Crue). I would highly recommend Gabriella to anyone looking for a place to board their dogs and will definitely reach out again when Roxy and Waffles need a place to stay for a few days!”
