Jennifer is hands down the best dog sitter! She made our Sadie girl feel like she was at home. She spent her time exercising Sadie throughout the day and snuggled with her at night. Sadie doesn’t eat very much when we go out of town, she ate each night she was there! That’s how I know she was comfortable. We will be booking Jennifer for now on! I can’t say enough nice things about her!

Kelsi was fantastic! She kept us informed through messaging with photos. Our little Frenchie was equally excited. If you love your pets, Kelsi is a great option to care for your fur babies!

Did an outstanding job when Sammy had a (pretty bad) cut on his tail. Took care of him as I would have and gave me constant updates. Very highly recommended

Matt was absolutely amazing! He took wonderful care of my dog, Kuna, and made sure he was happy and comfortable the whole time. I received updates and pictures that gave me peace of mind, and it was clear that Kuna was well-loved and cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience highly recommend Matt!

Five-star experience! Boone was so well-cared for and clearly loved the extra attention from the whole family. We couldn't have asked for a better weekend stay. Michelle is super communicative and flexible, making everything very easy.

Ciara was great- she sent pictures the whole time we were gone and Liv didn’t even want to leave when we picked her up! And to make it even better Liv was exhausted and slept all day so we could unpack and settle in when we got home!

Hilary was a terrific dog sitter for our 10 year old beagle- conscientious, friendly and so flexible, helping us out by picking up our dog for us. She sent us pictures every day to keep our "mom worries" under control. We feel fortunate to have found Hilary.

Susan is not only a wonderful sitter, she loves pets like as if they were her own! Susan has been sitting my 2 long haired cats since March when I had an unexpected death in the family. I could not find anyone to sit for my 2 cats with such short notice, I was in a pinch. Susan came to my rescue and responded quickly! I'm till this day very grateful to her! When I came back from my trip and picked my cats up from her, I had a hard time getting them back in their carrier! They didn't want to leave! I was so happy that my cats felt comfortable with Susan. I didn't mind them not wanting to leave and giving me a run around her house for half an hour trying to get them in their carrier. Susan is loving, caring and very knowledgeable about cats and she has given me pointers on challenges I have had with my cats, so she is not just a person that watches your pets. I'm very happy I found Susan, she is wonderful and my cats love her! I highly recommend her services!

Ronda was absolutely great! My pup warmed up to her immediately and I could tell by the end of her trip, Ronda was a fave! She took great care of pup and kept me up to date on her walks and behavior. My dog sometimes gets separation anxiety, but ate and enjoyed all her time. She was also super flexible with me! Highly recommend!

Chery took excellent care of our pups. The youngest had a bit of separation anxiety in the beginning and she made sure he was comfortable and relaxed. She provided photos each morning and evening which kept us from worrying about them. She will be our first option the next time we need a sitter for our boys.

About: I prioritize safety on walks and am always alert to surroundings, other dogs and weather conditions. Great with anxious dogs. Flexible schedules for last minute bookings Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I'm home most of the day. I am able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Safety is a core part of my daily routine. When caring for pets. I make sure doors gate and leashes are always secure and I stay aware of my surroundings during walks to avoid any potential hazards. Save

1000+ stars for Jay! She’s absolutely AMAZING! This was my first time leaving my 1 year old pup since adopting her in January, and I couldn’t have chosen someone better than Jay. I was worried about how she might behave due to her separation anxiety, but Jay was so welcoming and sweet that Coco felt as though she had been home all time. Jay kept me updated with pictures, videos and texts of Coco. Truly amazed with the level of care Coco received in her week long stay with Jay. Coco was even sad to leave! I will definitely continue to use Jay’s boarding services. Couldn’t recommend her enough!

Donetta and her service were great. Booked over a holiday weekend short notice and all went very well. She and her pups were great companions to my dog Frida. All were very friendly. Donetta provided great care and daily communications with photos!. Easy drop-off and pick-up. Recommend and will be using again for sure!

Our Finn was really happy when we picked him up, always a good sign. Jennifer B. seemed to be very caring and on top of taking care of the couple of dogs she was boarding at the time. We will be back !
