“Elizabeth was wonderful with Scarlett she took care of her as if Scarlett was a family pet , i couldn’t be happier that I found her I will definitely call Elizabeth again . Thank you Liz”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for Piper’s overnight stay with a sitter! Karen did a fantastic job keeping us updated throughout the five days, sending daily photos and messages that gave us peace of mind. It was clear that Piper was well taken care of, happy, and even got to enjoy many trips to the park! Knowing she was in such great hands made our time away so much easier. We highly recommend Karen and would absolutely book with her again in the future!”
“Francis is extremely accommodating. She works great with my schedule because I’m very last minute. Her parents are always there too, so my dogs get extra lovings. Simba and Grace were exhausted 😴 when we got them. Francis is definitely my go to.”
“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful with Sully! He received the best care with them. Elizabeth also sent lots of photo updates and kept us appraised of how he was doing while we were away. We would absolutely have Sully stay with Elizabeth again!”
“Loved her!! Got daily pics and updates which was AMAZING! My pup was definitely loved while she was there and made our trip less stressful knowing she was in a good home :)”
“Mr Bubs loves to go spend time with Maddie and Jack. He is always excited to be dropped off and my picky eater always finishes his meals there. It makes me happy he has a home away from home when I have to travel.”
“I've already re-booked! The entire process with Shannon was seamless, from the meet and greet which we did in advance to Spencer's first overnight! HIGHLY recommend. When we did the meet and greet, Shannon spent about and hour with Spencer and I, giving us the opportunity to see how he interacted with her daycare dogs as well as with her personal dogs. She has a huge, fenced in yard, which is very well gated off and contained. She took the time to get him used to her outdoor area, as well as her home. I was very comfortable knowing he would be safe, and well cared for. During his overnight stay, she texted me several times, with photos and let me know he was doing well. Spencer came home from his visit tired from playing with doggie friends, and well cared for. I have already booked future visits and I highly recommend!”
“Jessica is amazing !! I recommended her 100% my border collie ares is obsessed with her. Every time I pick him up he always exhausted and ready to go to his bed lol. She really sweet and definitely updated you with pictures to make sure your fur baby is safe so you can relax without the anxiety.”
“Nick and his wife were a life saver. I felt so much better about Diesel being with them over being in a kennel. They were able to accommodate my stay on a short notice too. They treated Diesel like their own and snuggled with him all weekend. He came back tired and well cared for. I highly recommend Nick to take care of your pup!!”
“Nina was very accommodating to my dog and I. My dog stayed with her this past weekend and Nina treated him like a part of her family. I loved that he had a great time at her home and wasn’t just placed in a cage over night like at most places. I’m booking with her again for any future trips! If you want your fur baby to be comfortable, loved on, and well cared for, book with Nina. She’ll keep you updated and you won’t have to worry while you’re away.”
“Our dog stayed with Erica and Thomas & family for 2 nights. We were given updates throughout the stay. This was appreciated as it was his first time there. A beautiful countryside home with a big yard and drop off and pick-up went smoothly. Marino will be back.”
About: I’ve had dogs for 30+ years and now I’m retired with no dogs so have room for yours. I am gentle and playful as well as responsible and active. I do not take cats, sorry. I watch our daughter’s dog on occasion but would not watch him at the same time. I had a lovely chihuahua for 16 years, and a husky, as well as a fluffy white mixed pup, all healthy and happy and had their senior years with us as well. I’m retired and home all day doing eBay and other hobbies. I also take daily walks and would take your dog out often as well. I have a large fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. I am also home a lot and allow the small dogs to jump up in my lap and furniture.
“Dana was great, very flexible and welcomed Yogi into her home. She sent photos to let us know our anxious pup was settling in and making new friends. Yogi had a great time and is looking forward to visiting again soon!”
“Brittany was so great! She sent lots of photos of all the fun our dogs were having, keeping my mind at ease. She walked the dogs and made sure they had plenty of exercise, and from the looks of it- a ton of fun. Absolutely phenomenal!”
