“My husband and I have 100% confidence in Chantal. She always provides great updates, is very flexible around drop off and pick up times— which is especially important when a train or a flight is delayed — and our dogs are treated as if they are her own, with lots of snuggling and play time. We have no anxieties about them while we’re gone. Highly recommended!”

“Layne did a wonderful job with Sandy. I was a little anxious at first leaving Sandy, but Layna kept me informed with updates daily, videos of there play time together outside. If you are looking for a dog sitter for any reason, you won't be disappointed.”

“Kari was an awesome selection to board our dog Mickey. She and her family happy and fun people and Mickey loved that. When we picked up Mickey he was a very happy boy. Tired from all of the play with Kari's family and dog. He is all tuckered out which is awesome for him. We will definitely have her to board our little boy in the future.”

“Emily was so gracious about taking our dog on a moment's notice, and sent us pictures and updates daily which put our minds at rest. We are so relieved to have a caring, reliable choice for dog sitting nearby! I'd recommend this family to anyone.”

“Joleen was amazing. We are new to the neighborhood and needed someone to watch our dog for an evening. Joleen was kind and our dog took to her instantly. She listened to our care instructions and within a few minutes of leaving our dog with her, she sent us a picture to show how happy our pup was. When we came to pick him up, he was happy (and exhausted from all the running he did in her yard!). We would definitely recommend Joleen. Was an amazing experience.”

“Alliyah and her sweet family were great with my pup. He stayed for 8 days and was very happy and well taken care of. Alliyah communicated timely and sent frequent updates and pictures throughout the week. I will definitely be using Alliyah again and I’m so happy I have found her. 😊”

“JeBecca absolutely LOVED her stay with Cheyanne and her family. Cheyanne sent several pictures everyday showing JeBecca playing with her other dogs/puppy. I am so thrilled that I have found such a loving family to watch over my fur baby when I have to go out of town. 10 out of 10, the BEST!”

“My two dogs had a great time with Jody. She adapted to their schedule and gave them their meds as instructed. She sent pictures during their stay which was much appreciated. I would highly recommend Jody.”

“This family was a delight to work with and they were so loving with my dog. They would have happily kept him forever but I couldn’t part with him. It was a huge relief to board him in a location where he received personal attention and lots of play time.”

“Bella had a fabulous time with Brenda. She looked so happy when we picked her up. I loved getting all the pictures of what Bella did while we were gone. She really enjoyed her stay.”

“This was my first time leaving Goose with someone I didn’t know and Falen made it so easy! Updated me along the way with pics and videos and was so easy to check in with. I would 100 percent use her again and so thankful to be able to leave him with someone who loves on him like I would!”

“Issa is usually shy and hides from people. I think she really enjoyed Samantha. I believe she was spoiled while staying there. I really appreciate you making sure she was comfortable and keeping me updated. Thank you”

“She was great! Sent us lots of photos! And made sure our pup was happy the whole time!! Her son was also a sweetheart and helped take care as well! Will definitely have our dog stay with them again!”

“Excellent service, care, and communication! I am extremely particular about who watches our fur baby - one, because I adore him, care deeply about his safety, and do not like leaving him; and two, because we have had more than one bad experience in the past. Marketa and Jay were patient and understanding, answered questions, addressed my concerns, and helped allay my fears and worries. And the ongoing communication was greatly appreciated. I felt they were honest and trustworthy, which was a great relief to me as well, as I felt our fur baby was safe in their care.”


About: I have grown up around all kinds of dogs all of my life. Dogs who are scared of everyone, love everyone they all hold a special place in my heart. I have always wanted to do this ! I am a stay at home mom with two dogs of my own, so I really have a very open Monday-Friday Schedule and I am open to discussing weekends! I will treat them just like they are mine, and mine are spoiled to a core. All dogs are special and deserve to know they are loved.
“Katie goes beyond with my Gabe. Katie sent updates and pictures during his stay. You know your pet is in the best hands they can be in without you. She includes your fur babies in family functions and your fur baby will become part of the family during their stay. We will be booking again.”
