“Julie kept Maddie for the evening for me under circumstances that were not expected. I appreciate that she was still willing to doggie sit for me! Maddie was content when I picked her up! Thanks!”


“I cannot recommend Amanda enough! She recently cared for my two dogs, one of whom is just a 4-month-old puppy, and her service went above and beyond my expectations. From the start, she made sure we felt comfortable leaving our boys in her care, keeping us updated daily with the sweetest photos of them playing and getting plenty of cuddles from her family. Not only did she treat them like her own, she handled the extra energy and attention a puppy requires. She also went the extra mile by bathing both of my boys before we picked them up. This level of care and thoughtfulness meant the world to us. Our fur babies had a great time in her care. 10/10 would recommend. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”


“Jamie was flexible with drop off/pick up schedule and sent updates during stay. My anxious dog seemed very comfortable with her, thanks again for taking care of Clover!”



“Mischa had the best time staying with Kathy and her pups! Kathy was super responsive and flexible with our scheduling and even administered our dogs meds like a pro. Mischa also had such an amazing time playing with Eddie and Maddie that she slept for a whole day when she got home :). Thanks Kathy for taking such good care of our fur baby!”

“Always amazing! Jenai and Sean treat my dogs like their own. They’re fantastic communicators, and my dogs are always tuckered out from all the playing! They were especially accommodating and kind to them over the 4th of July weekend. Both of my dogs are not fans of fireworks, but they went out of their way to make a special space for my old man to feel a little less scared in, and made sure my younger dog got some extra love. 100% recommended!!”


“Becky boarded our dog overnight. He had a blast playing with her golden retriever all day and was well taken care of. She was easy to communicate with, great with sending videos and updates, and available to accommodate our last minute booking. Highly recommend! We will definitely use her again in the future.”


“Trina is the best! I am a new dog mom with a small rambunctious puppy so I was very nervous to leave her with anyone. I had a friend bail on me last second to watch her so I was absolutely in a pinch and Trina was quick to respond and open to a visit before hand. She made the whole process very relieving and sent update pictures through the night. My night ran later than expected and Trina told me not to worry and to enjoy my night, so sweet! I would recommend her to everyone!”


“Cairo had an amazing time with Nayoma! It was so reassuring to know that he was receiving such great care and attention while I was traveling, we will definitely be back!!”


“Melissa was absolutely fabulous!!! I am definitely the definition of helicopter mom when it comes to my dog. Melissa was amazing she allowed us to come by before the booking to meet her dogs and her. Then once the trip began she was fantastic constantly updating and sending me photos of my boy…heath is a covid puppy and VERY bonded to me and it was soo amazing to see him happy and comfortable while i was gone!! Thank you Melissa for being so wonderful!! Heath cant wait for the next trip so he can come back and play!”


“Second time using Savannah’s services and once again she did an amazing job! Nova was super tired when she got home which I was very grateful for, lol. The only bad thing is that this site has a max on tipping and I couldn’t tip her what I wanted to.”


“Stephen and Rachel were wonderful for boarding our cat, Nori. They are just the nicest couple and ommunication was always quick and easy. Their home is warm, inviting, and peaceful. They have two adorable cats of their own that were relaxed and friendly. After leaving Nori with Stephen and Rachel for over a week, she returned home in perfect shape. We would absolutely reach out to Stephen and Rachel for any future boarding needs. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our Nori!”


“Madison is amazing, my dog is very anxious. I had a lot of requests and Madison was very accommodating and went above and beyond. She sent updates every day and a video. Hercules was happy and well looked after. I will definitely use her again.”


“Jordan was so friendly and good to our girl. She kept me updated and was understanding when we ran late picking up Phoebe. Phoebe seemed to really enjoy her time at Jordan’s. We would definitely recommend and ask her in the future needs.”


About: I grew up around dogs. My grandma always had dogs around and I loved helping feed, walk, and bathe them. When I got older I convinced my parents to get me a dog of my own. On top of having a dog I also have experience working in a doggy daycare and boarding facility. Pet care fits into my routine quite well. I am currently entering college as a freshman, however I am taking around half of my courses online. Because I am only in class a couple days a week I have plenty of time on my hands to just be at home. In my home I will have a designated room for your dog to eat and sleep. This is beneficial as I have a dog of my own and while she is not food aggressive it will just help me keep an eye on your dog to ensure they are eating their own food in the right quantities. I will also have a designated space for their personal belongings and any medication to make sure it stays safe. If your dog sleeps in a kennel there will be a space for it, however if not there will be a dog bed for them to use. I will also communicate with you a proper plan for exercise and play time based on age, energy levels, and needs of your dog.

“Mr Bear is an old grumpy dog who doesn’t take change easily. I was worried how he would adapt to strange people in a strange place. I didn’t need to worry. Via the pictures Sarah sent in a daily basis, he was sitting in the bed, getting along everyone even the dog. I was impressed by the love and care Mr Bear got. Will definitely use her again.”



“Kristen was amazing from the very beginning. Our usual sitter could not take Charlie for a few days. I contacted Kristen. She was very responsive and arranged so that she could meet Charlie before. During the actual stay we received updates and pictures daily, and when we picked up Charlie he was happy and calm as if were just gone for a few hours.”


“Ashtyn is very nice and Bimmer seemed to really enjoy her and her dog Gus. I was provided with pics/videos when we were away and communication was awesome! We will definitely be using her again in the future.”
