1. Tatiana M.

“We have had Tanya over for drop in visits multiple times. My dog is so happy when she arrives and instantly wants to play. She gives thorough report cards and lots of photos. Thank you!”


2. Rose A.

“Rose was a very engaging and dynamic sitter. She asked important questions and was very attentive to details with my puppies, both of whom adored her. It's clear how much of an animal lover Rose is, and anyone would be so lucky to have her watch their dogs. I would love to book with Rose again, and hope the opportunity will happen again.”


3. Lindsey P.

“Lindsey is amazing! When my dog was sick and unable to go to daycare, she was available to drop by last minute and took incredible care of Molly on her walk/drop in visit. Lindsey was incredibly patient with Molly, who can be very shy and unsure around new people, and got her out of her shell, trusting and happy in no time! I couldn’t recommend Lindsey more.”


4. Alexa S.
“I’ve had Lexi walk my dog multiple times for weeks and Daisy has loved every second of it. It’s hard for me to have the energy when I come home after a long day of work to take her for a walk but she’s been coped up all day so hiring Lexi was the best decision. She’s friendly, easy to work with and Daisy loves her seeing her.”


5. Amanda S.

“Amanda did a fabulous job taking care of our two indoor/outdoor kitties! She even stopped by a few extra times to check on one of our kitties who was staying outside a bit more than usual. The house was in great shape when we returned and both cats were well fed, happy, and healthy. :) Thank you Amanda!”

“Cece was super with my 3 small dogs! Really gave me a piece of mind to know she was caring for our pups when we were away! She also sent beautiful pictures! Very happy thank you!”


7. Dani H.

“Dani is great -- my dog loves her! She's communicative, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and clearly loves dogs. She takes great care and even sent me a photo of something she noticed on my dog, which I truly appreciated. I can relax knowing my dog is in great hands with Dani!”


8. Annabelle K.

“Annabelle is quick to respond and was able to do a drop-in visit for me without a lot of notice. She was great at updating me on the visit and I will definitely be using her again.”

“Wonderful experience working with Anne. She took excellent care of our puppy with regular drop in visits and kept us updated throughout each day”


10. Emma S.
“Emma is a natural with all pets. She cared for my dog and my daughter’s cat while also feeding our fish with ease. She sent pictures of her walks with my dog and clearly all my animals were happy and comfortable with her! She was on time, reliable, and developed a comfort level with each pet off the bat !”


11. Olivia B.
“Olivia was the best dog sitter my family and I have had. We used her multiple times since meeting her. We never worried about our dogs wellbeing because Olivia was so attentive and communicative!”

20. Julie M.
About: I have over 40 years experience caring for dogs and animals. My experience includes employment with a veterinarian, employment at a kennel, and a lifetime of dog ownership. We custom built our home to be a perfect paradise for a dog's life. We have a beautiful fenced in private backyard that offers a grass area, deck area, and a woods area for those adventuresome puppies! We have a dog door for those dog guests that want frequent outings or door service by us for those less ambitious doggies. A typical day at doggy paradise includes numerous supervised romps in the fenced in backyard, walks in the neighborhood, lots of love,and plenty of water and meals as per owners instructions. As a little background we just lost our last two dogs within the past two years, one to old age, and one young to cancer. We still want dogs in our life so we are now boarding.
