Christina was incredible. My boxer Logan is my best friend. We are very connected and I dreaded leaving him in someone else’s care for the weekend. But after a meet and greet with Christina I knew that Logan was being left in the best hands possible. And now that we’re at home on the couch, I know for sure he was in the best hands possible. This dog rarely lacks energy, and he’s cuddled up with me snoring. He didn’t want to leave Christina’s when I picked him up which I’ve never seen him do before. Christina provided pictures and multiple updates to ensure us Logan was doing well. Logan was bummed his vacation had come to an end! Thanks so much Christina!!!

Sarah was very responsive as we set up our meet and greet so she could get to know Mia. She has a great home and yard for hosting pups, and her little dog, Sweetie, was very excited to meet our Mia. We especially appreciated that Sarah was accommodating of our older dog's needs, especially with climbing stairs. Mia seemed happy and settled in well with Sarah's family. We would happily leave Mia in Sarah's care again.

Marcie took great care of my little boy. She was understanding of his needs. Ex- Sensitive stomach hypoallergenic food, needs to wear male wraps, etc. she did a great job keeping me updated on how he was doing, and sent fun pictures. By the end of the stay Charlie had made himself at home. Thanks for all your help Marcie. 10/10 would recommend

Eliot was a big help in watching our dog Monty for three nights in her house when our kennel reservation fell through. She provided daily updates with pics and got Monty out on plenty of walks. Monty seemed to really enjoy the stay. Highly recommend!

Marissa is always thoughtful and sweet with my boy, Blue. When we have to leave him, he knows he gets to have a sleepover with his pal Marissa, and it’s like a mini dog vaca for him too. We have such a better time knowing that he’s in great hands!

About: You can be sure that your sweet pup will get the time, love, care, and exercise that they need while they are in my care! I am currently stay at home with my four year old and own a cleaning company. I only clean a few hours a day Monday through Thursday so I’ll have plenty of time to play with a furry pal! I love to walk around our beautiful neighborhood several times a day to get plenty of steps in. We have a large yard in a safe neighborhood. The dog/dogs will be leashed and with me anytime we are outside. I have a large metal crate that the dog can stay in when it needs a rest!

Clover had a great time at Chelsea’s with her family! She was there for nearly two weeks and was very well taken care of, and happy! Chelsea sent pictures and regular updates, gave her her monthly flea/tick, and was patient with Clover’s puppy antics 😂

Nikki was fantastic! I felt very comfortable having her take care of Clover for a couple days. Her property is perfect for a dog that's used to being off leash and Clover even had a friend to play with while she was there. Nikki sent plenty of updates, pictures, and video which was perfect because I missed my baby! I would absolutely recommend Nikki to anyone that needs a pet sitter ?.

About: I grew up on a large farm with show dogs! I have had dogs, cats and all farm animals my entire life and their happiness, care is always top of my priority! I work from home full time, so there will never be a period your fur baby will be left alone unless I need to run a quick errand. I have two dogs ( a shih tzu (7) and a mini schnauzer (6 months), we have two well behaved cats and 6 chickens that are enclosed in an outside area. We use a bell system on the doors for our dogs to tell us when they need to go outside and positive reinforcement at all times.

Charles and Christina (along with their fur babies Emily and Roscoe) were absolutely amazing. They made our girls part of their family while we were away for a long 9 day vacation. We had updates multiple times throughout the day with pictures. You could tell our girls were well cared for and loved. They even allowed our high energy dog Lola to try out walking on a treadmill, which is exactly what she needed. We will be using them again in the future and recommend them to anyone looking.

Alyx was wonderful to work with and we are very happy we found her! She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on Lucy's stay with messages and pictures. We were nervous leaving Lucy with a new sitter but feel confident that she was well cared for and given lots of one-on-one attention in her time with Alyx. We definitely recommend her!

I was very nervous about leaving my 2 dogs anywhere for a night but Anna was so sweet and took great care of them. One is a puppy and one is an adult and she was able to manage them both with no problems. I'll be using her again.

Missy is terrific! Very lucky to have found her to care for our 2 yr old English Golden. Great communication, regular updates, pictures, lots of outdoor activities, and our pup clearly loved and and was comfortable w Missy and her family, human and canine (Charlie). Brix was very happy and relaxed when she got home. :-) Highly recommend!

Craig was so great with our hyper, anxious dog! He sent regular updates and photos and was very flexible when our travel plans changed at the last minute. His own dog is so calm, and was so sweet with ours as well. I highly recommend Craig—your dog will be in very good hands with him!

About: I am a big time dog lover! I work from home and am able to be here with the pets all day and take them out at least every 2 hours or as needed. I have a big house with a decent sized yard (NOT fenced). I'd love a few more companions hanging out with me and my dog, Lola! There aren't a lot of pet sitting options in this area so here I am making it an option :) Please come check me out! I work from home so i am here all day with the pets and able to tend to them as needed. i get an hour break for lunch and thats usually when i take my dog out to play/walk. I am available for day time pet sitting during the week. If needed me on a weekend we can most likely work something out-case by case basis-but it wasn't something i wanted to promote on my profile.

This was our first time using a pet sitter/doggy daycare, so we were a little anxious and didn't know what to expect. Jennifer was amazing and did such a wonderful job with our pup! We will definitely be asking her to sit him whenever we need the help from now on! What a fantastic experience!
