1. Stephanie K.
“Stephanie and her family took terrific care of Winston and Parker. They have a great house with a back yard, and gave my pups a lot of love! I was especially grateful that Stephanie knew how to take care of my older lab because of his age and pills needed. Highly recommended.”
2. Candace M.
“Candace was simply amazing with Ziva. I really appreciated her patience as Ziva adjusted to being with her for the first time. She sent me text messages, videos and pictures of their walks which put me at ease as I was working in the area for two days. It was also Ziva’s first time seeing horses and chickens on the farm. Ziva will definitely be staying with Candace again in the future.”
3. Brittani L.
“We were nervous leaving our elderly small dog with a new person. Brittani took very good care of Gabby. She was even flexible with us picking up our little one late because our flights home got delayed. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone with small dogs.”
4. Margret W.
“All you have to do is see the way Banjo looks at Margret to know how well she cares for him! Thanks for the updates, pictures, the great care you and provided Banjo, the extra cuddles you gave him for his 6th birthday!”
5. Charlene B.
“Charlene made our Noelli feel like she was home. She cared for her like she was her own and sent pictures almost daily. It made us not feel so guilty about leaving her for ten days. If you want your pooch to have TLC when you’re gone, call Charlene. We will again, for sure.”
6. Bryanna F.
About: I love pets. I have petstore retail experience, in addition to practical pet ownership. My family has always had companion animals. I have cared for all life seasons of pets, from baby to senior. As a stay at home mom, I am 100% free for drop in visits and walks. With little notice, I can accommodate any species or need. I tend to be an overthinker, so I am always prepared for wild scenarios. I go out of my way to make the best of every situation.
7. Alexis W.
“great boarder, did everything we asked for and provided daily pictures and videos. First time ever boarding and did not disappoint!”
8. Tabitha D.
“She was amazing with my dog. He had the best time and she kept me up to date with pictures and how was doing each day. They were even very accommodating when I was running 30 minutes late as well. I would absolutely book with her again if she is available.”
9. Lilly H.
About: I’ve taken care of doggos for the past 6 years for friends and family. I can help with puppies and senior dogs who require extra attention! I’m currently a college student home for the summer. I’m working part-time as a server throughout the week. My weekends are open for your animals! I have a fenced in yard and a playful frenchie willing to keep your pup company! We have a cat in the house who is very used to dogs but also has his own space to be away from the dogs. If the pet needs to be caged I can do that as well!
10. Chelsea H.
“Chelsea was great with our dog, Donny! We boarded Donny at Chelsea’s house while we were out of town. Chelsea was quick to respond to texts, very friendly, and professional . She offered to pick up and drop off Donny, which was very helpful. Donny had a great stay and was well cared for and happy. I definitely recommend Chelsea! We will use her services again in the future.”
11. Patricia C.
“I confidently recommend Mrs. Pat for dog sitting. Her fenced yard and attentive care were ideal for my dogs, and she diligently followed my instructions for their care.”
12. Patti H.
“Patti has taken care of our two fur babies twice now and we are very happy with her services. Our boys seem to really like Patti and they seem to enjoy their visits. From the pictures Patti sent us while watching our boys, the yard and patio seem perfect for small dogs without the worry of their escape. Believe me our Yorkie is an escape artist and staying with Patti we have no worries. We look forward to our next trip and booking our boy’s stay with Patti. Lynn & Denny Harley & Matey”
13. Summer A.
“Summer did a great job with the my dogs. She has cats and dogs of her own and my dogs were so interested in their new friends that they almost didn't notice me leaving. I'll definitely use her again!”
14. Devin & Alexis E.
“Great experience! I love that Devin and Alexis had us do a "meet & greet" before our dogs first stay, and really appreciated all the updates during our time away. Super professional and clearly animal lovers ☺️ we can't wait to book again!”
15. Jalin G.
“Jalin grew up on a big dairy farm and has always had 2 dogs in her life since she was 3 years old. Amongst all the cows, chickens, cats, goats and pigs! She’s an animal lover for sure. She currently has 3 dogs and takes them to the vet and for walks and to pet stores!”
16. Brandi M.
“My dog has stayed with Brandi twice and it’s been a really pleasant experience. She has been flexible on pickup and drop off times and has sent a picture every day except the days I dropped her off and picked her up to make sure I knew she was fine. My dog seems very comfortable with her. I will likely ask Brandi to dog sit again and would recommend her to others.”
17. Kaleigh S.
About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of animals and would be called many peoples go-to animal watcher when they go out of town! I also am training an ESA animal! I work full time, but I am always free in the evenings. If your dog can hangout alone while I’m at work then I will be perfect for you! I will follow all instructions from the owner and make sure they get updates on their furry friend! I will crate them when I leave the home if that’s what you want and will make sure they have pottied before I leave your home.
