“Renee is awesome! She took amazing care of my boy Moose over Labor Day weekend — and on super short notice, which was a total lifesaver. Moose had the best time running around her yard and made lots of new fur friends. I could tell he was having an absolute blast! I’m so grateful for how well she cared for him and will definitely be booking with Renee again. Highly recommend!”
“Julie is by our favorite & our fur babies favorite! Exceptionally responsive, friendly & loving to our babies. It’s so hard to find someone you trust with your dogs, we never have any doubt about how ours are when they stay with Julie! She has a beautiful home with so much space (plus a lot of love). We are so lucky to have found her a few years back and so happy we still have her! Thank you Julie!! -Quinn & Cooper”

About: For over 7 years, I’ve provided dedicated care for dogs of all breeds and ages. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or extra cuddles, I treat every pet like family. Pet parents trust me to keep their furry friends safe, happy, and loved while they’re away. This will be a safe space for them. I work full-time Mon-Fri. However, Fri-Sun I have more than enough time to provide proper care and lots of attention to your furry friends. They're in good hands. During certain months there will be availability during weekdays I provide a safe, welcoming environment with a fenced backyard and one friendly cat, Kurin, for companionship. If needed, I can easily crate your pup. I always supervise playtime, ensure pets have fresh water, and give them plenty of love and attention so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I would like them to roam freely around the house unless specified otherwise. The goal is to try and recreate their normal routine, so they feel at home.
“Ana was such a great sitter for our dog Jowdee ?? She went above and beyond to ensure a lovely and comfortable stay for him. She constantly stayed in touch with photos and videos. Definitely recommend and will use Ana again if we ever need our dog watched over ?”
“She did a great job with keeping my husky safe and happy especially during the holidays and while it was raining. She was quick to respond and let me know in full detail what my dog was up to and informed me of any problems that she noticed. The only small issue I had was that I wished she updated me earlier about how my dog was doing but besides that she was great.”
