“I can't thank Griffin enough for taking care of my dog on such short notice. They were incredibly accommodating and provided excellent care. Highly recommended!"”


“Naji watched our 3yr old weimeraner for an evening while we went to a wedding. She let us bring him over the day before for a ‘meet and greet’ with her dogs which was so helpful for us to see how they would interact. I also appreciated that she sent a few photos while we were gone. ☺️”



“Ron is the best. He is extremely reliable and so nice. Simon loves day care with him, and I feel very at ease knowing he is in his care. I highly recommend him!”



“Great communications (several check ins, including picture) to let me know my mini goldendoodle Enzo was settling in with the other dogs and doing well during his first day. Enzo was calm and confident when I picked him up - indicating it was a good experience for him too :) Thanks!”



“Couldn’t be a better first time Rover experience! Clover had a great day and Allison was awesome in communicating and 6:20 am pick up sure made my day easier. Will use again! 10/10”

About: I am a trainer with 25 years of working with dogs of all types, including shelter dogs. I currently assist the behavior team and foster department at KC Pet Project. I mostly work from home and I will take your pup for a nice long walk every day on a different trail or to a different lake or conservation area etc. I do not usually accept new clients but a few have sadly passed away. I have a regular extended pack of dogs that I have been watching for years, as needed. I don’t do daycare unless one of my clients needs it. I do have a dog-friendly home with a fenced yard and 20+ trees (lots of squirrels) and no children present or visiting. I have a dog and I may also have a foster or they may be another visiting member of the pack so please check with me if your dog is not dog tolerant. I work from home part-time and my schedule is my own and it basically centers around the dogs. Taking dogs for an adventure is always my first priority every day. I fit errands in around their nap schedule I am very aware of safety and I keep my eyes on the dog/s. They are always with me. I have a fenced back yard and if I have to run an errand and they can’t come with me, I leave them in my dog friendly living room that can be closed off. They can also be crated if preferred.

“Jacob did a great job watching my pup for the day! Took him on walks, checked in with me, and was flexible when my work ran a bit long and I had to be a little bit after our original pickup time. Thank you Jacob!”


“Great first day of hanging out at Savannah’s house. They have such a nice fenced in backyard. Can’t wait until the boys get introduced to the other dogs and get to play. Will be booking again, thank you!”


“As a new travel nurse to the area, it’s important for me to find a sitter that meshes well with my dog who has separation anxiety. Caitlin was wonderful with my boy, provided updates, and I came home a happy/tired pup! Until next time, thank you Caitlin.”

“Derrika was great with our pup! She was very professional and I had a high degree of confidence that our little guy was well cared for and loved while we were away. I loved feeling like it brought her joy to be with him too and not just a transaction. We’ll definitely be back!”


“Thanks again Ellie. Buddy has separation anxiety bad and gets so worked up & panicked if I leave him alone. But totally calm if he has company. Glad to see him normal and calm acting when I leave him with you. It's a relief to know he's got good company. Thanks for your kindness and good care.”



“Bart and his two dogs were great. Mauser was happy after the meet and greet and when he spent the day there. The backyard is great and the house is in a great neighborhood.”


About: Dogs have always been a part of mine and my husband‘s families since we were kids. We currently own two dogs and love having company. I am currently working from home so I have plenty of time for cuddles, potty breaks, and walks around the neighborhood. Our dogs also love to play or have a napping partner during the day. We have a smaller backyard with a 6 foot fence but plenty of room to run around, play fetch and get out all the zoomies . We also live in a very walkable area with walk paths and parks nearby.

“What a fantastic place to leave my Teddy. Teddy has a lot of anxiety in new places and can be a little handful for people who he’s never met, but I can’t compliment Carmen and Katie enough. They sent several pictures of him adjusting so well. Such peace of mind for me knowing he has a place that he can stay when needed. Can’t recommend enough!”



“Belinda was amazing. Sheldon had a great time. I would highly recommend!”
