“Angie took great care of our pup! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her and her family. Her home is very clean and safe. She is very responisve and sent updates during our dog’s stay. I would definitely recommend Angie and know our dog will be very excited to return to her home. Thanks so much, Angie!”
“We actually forgot all of our dogs food/bowls/ect and Brooke was sweet enough to go grab it for us as we were running late for the airport. Brooke and her family are our dogs second family and we are so thankful for them!”
“She’s the best doggie mommy around. We were looking forward to ma y more spectacular stays with Mr Stanley but he’s a little skittish around the youngest. So sad he can’t come back and stay at Doggie Heaven. Highly recommend this woman for your dog sitting needs.”
“AMAZING. Danielle and Kyle did such a great job making my puppy feel at home. Provided prompt daily updates and were really easy to schedule with. Will be returning!”
“Seriously so amazing! My pup came home super happy to have spent some time with Huaqing! So communicative and provided frequent updates for how my pup was doing! You’ll be so happy and thankful to have Huaqing watch your fur baby”
“Kaitlyn and her family took amazing care of my baby girl while we were away! Daily updates with photos/videos helped put me at ease. I know she was well taken care of. Will definitely be trusting Kaitlyn to watch my pup in the future!”
“Wish I could give more ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️. Fantastic experience, and too bad I wasn’t aware of this sooner. After years of traditional boarding I found Tracy and she is amazing! Updates were appreciated and my pups are so much happier than when I pick them up from a boarding complex. Truly nice knowing my pups were in good hands!!”
“Eric watched Harley for us for 11 days! We got lots of updates with personalized photos and videos of Harley while we were gone. Harley had a blast staying at his home! She was absolutely spoiled with walks and trips to the park. We could tell he really cared for her and we will be using him again in the future!”
“Kayla sent me videos/pictures while I was away, which really helped ease my mind. When I picked up my dog, my dog started to cry cause she didn’t want to leave Kayla’s house. I highly recommend :)”
“Elena and her husband took such good care of my pup while I was out of town! She sent daily pictures and updates and even made a video at the end of the trip of all the adventures they had. Will definitely work with them again! Very grateful (:”
“Eli, was amazing w my little old lady dog Lucy. I would highly recommend him. Usually my dog gets so excited to see me after vacation, but she had so much fun w Eli she didn’t want to leave :)”
“Allie is the absolute best, a total gem, who not only cares about every fur baby that she watches but who goes above and beyond. She is truly gifted with a compassion and kindness that goes beyond the average person. She has a sensitivity and affinity for animals that borders on extra sensory. I think she truly is an animal whisperer, she can commune and communicate with animals in a way where she can truly see the pet she is caring for and understand their deeper and higher needs. She is especially gifted with cats, so my fellow cat people and cat parents look no further. She took care of my cat with the utmost excellence and empathy which was highly important to me, she treated mystique as her very own and her love of animals was very apparent to me. I trust her to care for my pets, will always come back to her and I cannot recommend her services enough. She is the best for the job and your pets will be in great hands. She is thorough and pays attention to details and truly takes the time to bond with the animals, I was updated every step of the way. Look no further, if you have pets that need a sitter, she’s your girl!”
“Pamela was a great sitter for our elderly dog, being especially caring and concerned about her diet and medication. Her love of dogs is obvious and I would surely recommend her as a care-giver.”
“Alex is a good mine. She treated my little one as her own and sent plenty of pictures to help me be close to him. Definitely will use her again and again. She also stepped up when my original boarding plans fell thru at last minute.!! Nothing but smiles!”
“Kelly is warm and genuine in her love for dogs! I was confident my dog would be safe, relaxed, and well-cared for in Kelly’s home. I picked up a happy dog and am pleased! Thank you Kelly for a terrific 1st boarding.”
“Daniella was AMAZING with my two crazy aussies! :) She kept me updated on everything and the pups had such a great time! I’ve always been nervous about leaving them especially with someone new (yes, I’m one of those crazy dog moms) but she made the whole experience very comfortable and reassuring!”
“My senior girl, Elsa, had a wonderful first overnight stay with Joy and Matthew. I was sent updates and photos during Elsa's stay that were very much appreciated!! They are a very kind couple, and have a very sweet little dog that Elsa got along well with. Their backyard is beautiful, and just perfect for small dogs. So happy I found Joy and Matthew to watch Elsa! Elsa has two more stays booked this summer!!”
“Sai was so great with Patti! This was my first time using this service and had never left Patti with a sitter before. Sai went above and beyond to make sure me and my fur baby were comfortable. He met with us before the visit and was very generous about showing us around and talking us through his plan. He shared pictures every day and updates on how the dogs were getting along since I was nervous about that. He walked them multiple times a day. Patti is in early stages of training, and Sai was incredibly patient with her and reassuring to me. He also shared the food he was giving his dog Sokka (who is a beautiful sweet boy), but was always checking and asking permission before doing anything like that. Lastly, Sai even called and coordinated with Patti’s trainer for just in case! So happy with Sai and Sokka and will definitely be booking again. Patti had a great time!”
About: I’m an easygoing individual who has grown up with pets my whole life. I regularly pet sit for friends and family, whether it’s for a day or upwards of a month. I currently have a 4 year-old Old English Sheepdog who is my entire world. I know how scary it can be to trust someone new around your pets, so please feel free to reach out to me at any time! I work full-time on a hybrid schedule and I’m usually able to accommodate working from home with advanced notice. Outside of normal business hours, I am usually free! My home is all one level with a decent sized community lawn in front of my home, as well as a fenced in patio. I have a friendly pup who loves to play, and I’m usually working from home which is a huge plus! I’m happy to follow your pups schedule and make any reasonable accommodations too!
“I'm so grateful for the last-minute adjustment from daycare to boarding. It was my first time boarding, and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her for the weekend. I will definitely have her take care of my dog again someday.”
