“Cima had a great stay at Crystal’s place. Thank you Crystal for watching our Cima! Looks like he had fun there outside in her fenced yard and we appreciated the photo updates. I do recommend Crystal.”
“Olga was perfect! She was flexible when our dates shifted and sent photos daily to help with how much we missed our dog. It was clear to she got lots of exercise and ball chasing (her favorite activity!) I would definitely have our dog stay with her anytime.”
About: I love working with Pets, i find having a furry friend is so loving and i’m willing to help give them fun playtime and attention! I’m available anytime during the weekday and weekends! i’ll always make time to help people out when they need someone to give their furry friend some extra attention and time I have a loving dog who i love very much! i’ve always loved animals and want to have a fun, playful time with many of them! I think it’s very important to provide attention to animals so I’m very passionate about helping others out when needed!
“Julie was great.! We were delayed over the holidays and she was very helpful in accommodating our change. Our Maizey was very well taken care of and seemed relaxed & happy upon picking her up.”
“Kaitlyn and John took amazing care of my dog while I was away. This was the first time I left her at someone else’s home for an extended amount of time and it seemed as if my dog fit right in with their family and was given so much love and attention. They sent pictures and updates daily and my dog returned to me happy and healthy. I would love to have them watch my girl again next time I am in need of a pet sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda is amazing. Lola loves the whole family. Happy dogs at Amanda’s. Regular updates and feedback. Very responsible care. Thank you Amanda for taking the fear and anxiety out of the equation.”
“Ralph and Irma were so great with Magic! Magic was instantly comfortable around them. He enjoyed lounging in their backyard and playing with Ralph. Ralph gave me daily updates which reassured me. that Magic was happy while I was away. Thank you so much Ralph and Irma!!”
“We really enjoyed leaving out young pup with Meghan. She was super communicative, sent loads of pictures and stories, and took Ziggy on plenty of adventures to keep him entertained and exercised. 10/10 will use again.”
“Jessica was kind and welcoming for my nervous doggo! She took great care of him and helped him settle in quickly. She also sent me sweet pics of him every day. Will definitely be returning to Jessica for future pet sitting needs.”
“Loren and her dog were amazing hosts to my little guy, providing lots of updates and pics. She was responsive and flexible on late notice. I’ll definitely reach out to Loren first if I need boarding again in the future!”
“Zoe & I did a meet & greet with Stacey & her dog before booking & Zoe seemed ok with her. She has a yard for the dogs to run around in. Stacey is very personable! Stacey was great about sending updates & pictures. She included Zoe in any outdoor activity she & her dog went on. Zoe is nervous with new people, but Stacey said Zoe warmed up to her & her dog quickly. Stacey let me know that I may not have packed Zoe enough food (mom fail) & asked what brand I fed her vs. just feeding Zoe what her dog ate, which I greatly appreciated (Zoe did have just enough, lol). She gave me thorough rundown when I picked Zoe up. I highly recommend Stacey & Zoe will be definitely staying with her again.”
“Prospect was in great company and thoroughly enjoyed his time with Aiko and her family :) Great communicators, flexible with my changing pickup & dropoff times, and my boy was returned to me safe & happy. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Lisa and Jay took awesome care of my girl. Looks like the first day or two was a bit rough, but she quickly realized life was continuing as it always had. I really appreciated all the fun pictures during my travels and I was so relieved not having to worry about her. I’m sorry orca ate all of Lily’s food, she may have gained a pound or two as you said?😉 thank you again for taking such amazing care of my little Sheba.”
“Our dog seemed to enjoy her stay. Great yard for play, and neighborhood for walks. Kaitlin gave great updates during the stay and was flexible with us for drop off and pick up.”
“This was our first time leaving our 2 dogs with other people, let alone strangers. We went to do a meet and greet beforehand and didn’t know quite what to expect. Ryan and Chelsea were great with both of them from the start. Ryan answered all of our questions and was very open. While we were away he kept us updated with how they were doing and sent us photos and videos often. That made it so much easier to enjoy our trip and not have to worry how they were doing. When we went to pick them up, our dogs were excited to see us, but made sure to get last pets from Ryan. We know they are in good hands with Ryan and Chelsea. We will definitely be coming back to them for our trips and we highly recommend! Thank you so much!”

Stacey was amazing with our pup! She watched him for two nights and went above and beyond, taking him on several hikes and sending us tons of pictures the whole time. We got daily updates so we always knew he was happy and having a great time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Stacey, we’ll definitely be booking her again!
I was so thankful to find Susan to watch our two dogs, Bella and Lulu, while we went to Homer and Seward for the weekend. She sent frequent pictures so I knew they were in great hands. Susan accommodated our large kennels so our dogs had a familiar space to be in. They both came home happy, healthy and tired. I will absolutely have Susan watch my dogs anytime we leave town or go on vacation again. FIVE stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Amanda and Shawn were wonderful for our older dogs! Very understanding and accommodating for thier needs especially with the extra accidents that my older gal had that was out of character for her. Their dogs are great with furry friends! Already booked out next stay with them!
Melanie was an amazing dog sitter! We felt very comfortable and at ease leaving our Aussie with her and her husband. It was great seeing daily updates of the activities Maverick was up to and he definitely had a fun vacation with them and got a lot of exercise! Thank you for being so great to our doggo!
Jadae was absolutely amazing with my baby Dozr! She watched him for a day and a half and treated him like part of her family. Her two little girls were so sweet with him, and it was clear he felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time. Jadae kept me updated, made sure all of his needs were met, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Dozr was happy, safe, and getting plenty of attention and affection. I highly recommend Jadae to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Sarah was absolutely wonderful and incredibly accommodating when I needed a last-minute sitter to travel out of state for a funeral. She went above and beyond by sending daily photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She and her husband even took our fur baby out for pup cups (after asking permission), which was such a thoughtful touch. It was clear from the start that they cared for our dog as if she were their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter.
Tabetha was awesome and sent me photos of my doggos relaxing at her home. It was so nice to have someone reliable to watch them so I could have a relaxing weekend away. Thank you so much for watching my doggos for the weekend! They came home happy and tired so I know they had a great time! I appreciate all of the photos!! 🩷
