“Madelyn was very flexible for our last minute needs! She seemed very comfortable with different dog personalities and having a wide age range together. Hazel seemed to have a great time and I would definitely use Madelyn again!”

“We are so happy to have found this family to take care of our fur babies! We received updates while we were gone and knew our boys were in good hands. I’m sure they really loved being around the 4 kids and in a home versus being in a kennel somewhere. Thank you!”

“Justin was wonderful at dealing with our very needy Old English Bulldog. He sent pictures and updates over the 2 weeks he had Freya, putting our minds at ease. Our dog enjoyed her stay with Justin so much she didn't want to leave when I went to pick her up! We will definitely use Justin again in the future.”

“Nari was happy and healthy with Paula. She kept me informed as he was adjusting to being with her. Nari comes to work with me every day and hangs out in the car when I'm at work. Paula did the same with him to keep it as normal for him as possible. Will definitely re-book with her in the future.”

“Nichole has great communication, and went beyond our expectations taking care of our golden, Nala. We have been looking for a good, trustworthy home-away-from home for Nala and we feel like Nichole and her family provide exactly that. Nala got lots of play, snuggles, and attention. They also have a huge fenced yard and well-kept home. When I picked her up she was happy and tired! We highly recommend Nichole if you need a someone to look after your pup!”

“Denice was so kind and takes her role as a pet sitter very seriously. She knows animals and once I saw her set up I knew animals are her passion in life. Not a single thing will be missed with Denice watching your furbaby!”

“Tanner was fantastic with our dog, Kubo. We were gone for almost two weeks, and Tanner sent regular updates and photos. He has a very large yard for dogs to play in, and he took Kubo on a fun hike. I definitely would have Tanner watch our Kubo again.”

“Jennifer was awesome with my spoiled boy. She didn’t hesitate to include him as part of her family and spent a great deal of time making sure everything was just as I asked. I’m probably a helicopter dog mom, but Jennifer was more than willing to comply with all my quirky boy’s lifestyle. Would def recommend if you have a kiddo requiring extra attention or if you need piece of mind while your baby is in her care.”

“Amanda did great with Mia and working with my schedule. She is flexible if needed. I had to give a three day notice I was leaving for a couple of days and she gladly booked mia to stay. Mia enjoyed playing with all the doggies and I received photos every day. Will definitely book again.”

“Kassandra did an amazing job taking care of my anxious dog. We got updates and appreciate the activity and attention given. My pup came back home happy, calm and relaxed. Wow!!!”

“They were absolutely amazing with our I year old Great Pyrenees. Amazing communication skills and it was great knowing he was safe and happy while we were on vacation. Will definitely be booking again in the future.”


“A dog lover all of her life and a very supportive family that together made our dog feel completely at home. A fenced yard and 2 lovely dogs of her own rounded out our dog's stay. Can't recommend her enough.”

“absolutely terrific. communication was excellent and always very prompt. She made sure we knew how he was doing and that he got walked a few times a day as part of Tina's normal routine.”


About: Hi! I’m a young, experienced dog trainer with a genuine love for animals of all sizes and personalities. I offer reliable dog training, boarding, and walking services in a safe, structured, and loving environment. My approach focuses on positive reinforcement, building confidence, and meeting each dog’s individual needs. Whether your pup needs daily walks, overnight care, or help with basic manners, they’ll be treated like family while in my care. I have plenty of time. In my schedule to come help out! Just let me know. Afternoons are best, or early mornings. Can’t wait to meet them. I have experience in dog first aid! Know dog body language, so I can read them to make sure they are comfortable. Dogs will always be on a leash! When outdoors. Unless in a fenced yard.
“Speedy drop off and pick up and super friendly. Appreciated the pics from the walks they went on. Was super convenient and Ashley was flexible on drop off and pick up times as well. Wonderful communication and no issues!”

“Jessica’s home was warm and inviting and extremely dog friendly. My 8 month old doesn’t have manners yet and is a bit rambunctious but Jessica was so patient with her. Sent me pics and videos of her days. If my dog Tilly could speak the day after I picked her up I just know she would have said I want to go over to my friends house! Thank you so much for loving her during my absence. You are my person I will always call you first! Thank you again!”

“Elizabeth boarded our 12 week old Blue Heeler for two nights. She was easy to communicate with, sent pictures during his stay, and even dropped him off (which was originally not park of the arrangement). He was returned happy and well cared for.”

“Georgea did a great job of taking care of our cat! Would definitely hire her again. She had quick communication which definitely put us at ease while being out of town.”

“Lacie has been a life safer with an unexpected family member being away from home and needing care for his cats. One in particular is very reclusive and over the last few weeks has opened up and allowed visual appearances as well as pets. Lacie's truly helped during this trying time. She'll treat your pets as if they we her own 🥰”

“Hailey did a great job. She always kept in contact with me each day and let me know that she could find the cats if I asked her. Let me know their food and water levels as well. Great job, thank you!”


About: I've taken care of cats my whole life. I've had nearly 10 cats in my lifetime and my main job has always been to take care of them. Back at home, I had 4 cats who were the lights of my life, and since I have moved away I now have 2 beautiful kitties and they are still the lights of my life.

“Jennifer went above & beyond! She’s very sweet & bubbly, also professional & kind. She adapted to all my crazy-cat-lady antics & took care of my cat so well! She even cleaned up after a surprise bird massacre…”

“Heaven did great for a seven day house-sit! I had quite the menagerie at the time - fish, frogs, birds, cats, and came to all of them happy and healthy and the house just as tidy as when we left.”


“Amanda did an amazing job with my old challenging cat! She kept in contact with my every day, didn't hesitate to ask questions, and made my vacation worry free! I will 100% be booking with her again.”


“Kacy did a wonderful job of taking care of my kitty. Sadie is an elderly kitty who has lots of quirks but Kacy worked really hard at winning her over and was very conscientious to notice her habits to help reduce her anxiety. Kacy kept me informed every day and was open to suggestions about taking care of Sadie. She took care with my house just as if it were her own. I can't thank Kacy enough! .”
About: Coming from rural Minnesota, I've been raising animals for as long as I can remember. I take pride in having the honor of caring for fur babies and treat every animal as my own. I work Monday through Friday from 9-5, so I’m available for pet care in the evenings and fully available on weekends. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pets company, I’m here to make sure they’re happy and comfortable while you're away! I have a large fenced backyard and 3 dogs of Mt own who love having new playmates. I live right on a trail that surrounds a nearby park so walking and exercise is a breeze!

About: Cats are my favorite animal and I have years of experience caring for them! I currently have two cuddley cats, Tuco and Junior, who I care for every single day. My drops ins would ensure a clean litter box, full kitty bellies, lots of purrs, and whatever else your cat needs to be happy and healthy while you are away!
“Melissa was an absolute sweetheart! She came to meet our 2 kitties and did a short walkthrough of our house before we left. During her visits I got pictures of my cats and little updates everyday. I was very comfortable with having her watching over our cats, it felt nice not having to worry about them! If I need to, I’d definitely hire Melissa again, and I recommend you do the same!”


“Megan took very good care of my 2 kitties who were both very shy and scared for the first few days. She sat with them to make sure they ate and eventually they became friends. I'll definitely be booking again with them for our next trip.”

About: I have 20 experience taking care of pets, from small rodents and reptiles to large breed dogs. I have an occupational endorsement for veterinary technicians assisting from MSCU. I foster cats and dogs for local Rescues. I have a small zoo at my house that includes chickens, rabbits, cats, and dog and several reptiles. So I am open to care for more than just your dogs and cats. I am a SAHM of 3 children(ages, 12, 15, and 19) and 20 plus pets, including our fish & chickens😁. Looking to add some income doing what I love most. Caring for animals. I have a large home to accommodate pets of many varieties and sizes. I have a large yard with a heavily wooded area surrounding the rear and lined by a fence on one side and a large hill on the other side. I have experience in emergency care for pets if ever needed. I frequently foster pregnant cats and dogs so they have a safe space to deliver and care for their litter’s until we can find them living forever homes.
About: I’ve had cats most of my life but have also had dogs, fish, birds, hamsters, mice, and guinea pigs! Spiders are the only pets I can’t handle. I’m currently unemployed and haven’t been able to find full time work due to the bus driver strike. So, Monday-Friday I take my high schooler to and from school and am free to take care of people’s fur babies all day and night! I love animals and treat them as my fur babies! I spoil them with attention and make sure they are well taken care of and happy!

I’m retired and have every day and evening to take care of fur babies I love giving love and comfort while Mom and Dad are gone I’m retired and would enjoy doing care for animals I’m have a full day to care for them I did DayCare for 20 plus years and I miss caring
About: With a strong background in working and high-drive dogs—especially German Shepherds—I bring a structured, intentional approach to pet care. I’ve raised and trained multiple dogs through advanced obedience and sport foundations, with a focus on clear communication, calm handling, and routine. My experience has shown me that not every dog thrives in chaotic daycare environments, which is why I prioritize individualized care, low-stress transitions, and purposeful engagement. Whether your dog needs stability, mental stimulation, or simply a quiet, well-managed space, they’ll be handled with the same level of consistency and respect I expect for my own dogs. Pet care is built into my daily routine from start to finish—it’s not something I squeeze in, it’s something I structure my day around. Mornings begin early with kennel checks, potty rotations, feeding, and a calm reset for the day. Throughout the day, I run scheduled rotations for exercise, engagement, and rest, ensuring each dog gets individual attention without overstimulation. Evenings include additional potty breaks, wind-down time, and a final check to make sure every dog is settled, clean, and comfortable. This consistent, predictable routine allows me to provide attentive, low-stress care while maintaining a calm and controlled environment for every dog. In my home, pets are cared for in a calm, structured environment designed to reduce stress and provide clarity. Each dog is housed individually and follows a consistent daily routine that includes scheduled potty breaks, feeding, rest, and purposeful engagement. I focus on calm handling, clean transitions, and one-on-one attention rather than group chaos or open play. Dogs are monitored closely throughout the day, and their environment is kept clean, quiet, and predictable. This approach is especially well-suited for working, high-drive, or more sensitive dogs who benefit from structure, routine, and thoughtful care.
“Justin has taken exceptional care of Felix. Super responsive, warm welcome every day and great updates at the end of the day. Flexible to meet all the needs of my senior pup and crazy work schedule. So so grateful for the attention and care Justin gives my old pup! Couldn’t ask for a better arrangement. Thank you Justin!”

About: Adult human with many years of pet-owning and pet-sitting experience. Have hosted 15 foster dogs and puppies in past 2 years, setting them up for success with regular exercise and clear and consistent rules. I have a good set-up for hosting both dogs and cats responsibly. Please contact with any questions. I am a stay-at-home supportive spouse, meaning I am available to treat your pets like I treat my own. My pets are spoiled. And well-behaved. For dogs - have a fenced-in yard for safe pottying. I have a friendly adult female dog - spayed, and two well-behaved cats. I have local trails available where I exercise my own dog. I can provide a crate, if desired - I do request that your dog be crate-trained and I cannot accommodate a dog with a heavy prey-drive. For cats, I have an unused bedroom set up as a private suite, that my own pets do not have access to. This room has a window and plenty of cat napping options. I live on a quiet street. I am available to give your cat as much attention as they desire.
“Incredible rover! The whole family is incredibly sweet, considerate, and accommodating. My pup was so excited to go over and play! I’ll happily work with Madelyn again. Thanks so much for taking great care of her!”


About: What sets me apart is my depth of hands-on experience caring for dogs with many different personalities, temperaments, and needs. I’m very comfortable managing multiple dogs, reading body language, and creating a calm environment where dogs feel safe and settle in quickly. I have experience with puppies, including potty routines, crate training foundations, and helping young dogs adjust to new environments. I’m also attentive to senior dogs and those who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra comfort and supervision. Because dogs are such a big part of my daily life, I naturally pay attention to safety, structure, and individual needs. I understand how to introduce dogs carefully to new spaces, prevent overstimulation, and maintain routines so they feel secure while their owners are away. I only accept one household at a time, which allows me to provide personalized care, close supervision, and plenty of attention. My goal is always for dogs to feel relaxed, comfortable, and genuinely cared for-not just watched. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m home frequently throughout the day and dogs are already a central part of my life. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I plan my schedule around the dogs in my care so they aren’t left alone for long periods. I’m able to maintain feeding routines, exercise, and quiet rest time so they feel comfortable and settled. Because I only accept one household at a time, I can focus on their individual needs and make sure they receive personalized care throughout the day. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I create a calm, structured environment where dogs can settle in and feel secure. I only accept one household of dogs at a time, which allows me to provide close supervision and individualized attention without overcrowding or unnecessary stress. I introduce dogs to new spaces gradually and pay close attention to body language, behavior, and comfort levels so I can adjust care to their needs. Dogs have access to comfortable resting areas, regular potty breaks, and supervised outdoor time in a secure space. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully for feeding, routines, medications, and exercise to maintain consistency. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for during each visit, and I provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident while they are away. My goal is always to create a safe, low stress experience where pets feel relaxed and owners feel complete peace of mind.
“I have no worries when I drop my puppies off with Astrid! I get updates throughout the day and they are so sleepy when they get home from all the fun they had throughout the day!!!”

About: My name is Cameron, and I’m a dog trainer offering personalized training and boarding services designed around the unique needs of each dog. I take a thoughtful, intentional approach prioritizing structure, environment, and overall well-being so every dog in my care feels safe, understood, and set up to succeed. No two dogs are the same, which is why I tailor each stay to match their temperament, behavior, and needs whether that means building reliable obedience, working through behavioral challenges, or enjoying a balanced and structured day-to-day life. When dogs stay with me for boarding, they’re not just being watched they’re cared for with purpose. Each dog follows a structured daily routine that includes exercise, enrichment, rest, and play, all adjusted to their individual energy level and personality. I’m very intentional about creating a calm, controlled environment, whether a dog thrives in a social setting or needs more one-on-one time and space. A big part of my program includes getting dogs out into the real world in a safe and structured way. We incorporate long walks, hikes, and adventure-style pack walks to build confidence, improve behavior in new environments, and allow dogs to decompress in a healthy, fulfilling way. These outings aren’t just for exercise they’re intentional training opportunities that help dogs learn how to exist calmly and neutrally around new sights, smells, and distractions. I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide range of dogs, from police K9s and sport dogs to beloved family pets and rescue cases. That experience allows me to confidently adapt to different drives, temperaments, and challenges. At the end of the day, my focus is on building clear communication, confidence, and trust so both you and your dog feel supported every step of the way. For the past four years, I have immersed myself in working with dogs across various fields, from pet dogs to police K9s and protection dogs. This diverse experience has enriched my skills and deepened my passion for canine care and training. My part-time job provides me with the flexibility to dedicate ample time to these incredible animals, allowing me to focus on their training, well-being, and development. This journey has been immensely rewarding, fostering a profound connection with each dog and enhancing my expertise in handling and training them. Ensuring the safety and well-being of dogs in my care is my top priority. I implement strict safety protocols, including secure environments, proper nutrition, regular health check-ups, and personalized training programs tailored to each dog's needs. I vigilantly monitor their behavior to prevent any potential issues and provide a nurturing atmosphere that promotes their physical and emotional health. By fostering a routine that balances exercise, socialization, and rest, I create a harmonious environment where each dog can thrive safely and happily.

A small one connected to the house with a dog door and a bigger one. I have chickens who live in the bigger one during the summer. I am not currently having doggie visitors overnight as my cats don't like it.
About: I have been caring for pets for my entire life.

Monday-Friday is mostly open with a few instances where I don’t have flexibility. I will care for your fluffy friends either at your home if that is your preference, or I can offer short term stays at my home. My preference is to keep animals where they are most comfortable.
About: I know pets are part of the family and I want pet owners to be able to travel with peace of mind knowing their dog is well cared for.

I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment for dogs to feel comfortable while you’re away. I work from home, so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and enjoy getting dogs out for walks and fresh air. I try to keep routines consistent—feeding, potty breaks, and activity—so your dog feels as close to home as possible.

“Sage took wonderful care of Ollie who needed a quiet, loving environment while we went to dinner and a show. She showed great sensitivity to his special needs (he is recovering from surgery), and was very reassuring and professional with us throughout the process. We will definitely call upon Sage the next time we are in Ashland.”

About: I have taken care of all sizes of dogs for about 8 months now. My family and family friends have trusted me to take care of their fur babies. Feeding them, giving them their meds, and following a daily routine (given from family of the dog) were all apart of things I’ve had to do as a dog house sitter. I have a job, I work about 6hour shifts at least 5 days a week and my schedule changes every week.I do school online so I will be able to do it whenever I have free time. BUT I am almost done with school and will be graduating in May. I would care for your pets by taking them outside, playing with them, feeding them, bathing them if necessary, and giving medicine if also necessary.
About: I am currently on a 3 10s schedule and am available sat-tuesday. If we can come up with a potty plan, I can accommodate my 3 work days as well. Ive owned both show and working dogs, ive worked with special needs and puppies. While I don not offer training, I can continue and maintain anything you are working on with your pet. I work 3 10s a week and am home sat- tuesday. I prefer booking for my off days but work days are fine as long as potty arrangements can be made. I do not currently own any animals however I currently help run a horse barn. Dogs will be let out on a leash so that they can be supervised. I can provide several walks a day if requested. Because I have no other pets feeding can be done however the owner request. Free fed, portioned and soaked. I also have experience with raw.
About: I have experience with small to giant breed dogs. From kitten to senior cats. Additionally I have experience with administering medication via shot(for cats and dogs), pill, mousse, cream, and I have wound care experience. I have had several years of pet car from puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats. Additionally I have cared for some varieties of fish and amphibians. Animal care is my top priority. I work full time but I work 5 minutes from home allowing me to visit home every day for lunch. My work schedule is 5 days a week but with being so close to home I am able to visit the house every four hours. Additionally I have weekends off as well. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have 2 friendly dogs and a yard that I can walk your dog on a leash in. My dogs are very well trained and stay in the yard without a leash. Additionally my dogs come in the house on command, no dog will ever be unattended when under my care. My dogs get along with cats and ferrets as well. We like to joke that our orange cat trained both of our dogs.

About: I’m not a teen :) so I will show up without fail on time every time. I’m not the cheap option but I guarantee that there’ll be no surprises if you hire me. If you have multiple pets, please reach out to me, we can discuss a personalized rate. I am around dogs and cats all my life, that’s my happy place and I love every aspect of it, even the not so glamorous parts like cleaning, listening to barking, or dealing with emergencies. I worked at a pet Resort for years here in Alaska working with all types of furry friends. I have a soft spot for seniors, I also have a lovely old lady in my home, a 12 year old German Shepherd, Molly. If I may suggest something to any pet owner in our valley: please don’t choose your sitter based on who’s the cheapest available option… taking care of your pets in your home is a big responsibility. Great joy as well of course but it must be done with 100% attention, care and love. I can promise that 100% because that’s the only setting in my book when it comes to animals. Please feel free to reach out to me if you need help, I would love to be there for you and for your pets. I raised three children, all grown-up now. I have the time now for your pets. Because of my love for animals, I look forward to helping you when you need it! Safety is THE most important aspect of taking care of a pet, so before I start working with one I always have multiple questions to the owner. Knowing your doggie, knowing the routine, the environment etc is a crucial factor in providing a safe and quality service.
About: Growing up I always wanted to be a veterinarian. I still do. I just love the critters! Dogs, cats, lizards, chickens, guinea pigs... They're all fun! I treat your animal like my own. They're allowed up on the couch, on the bed. They ride around in the car with me and go visit friends. Looking forward to our next adventure together! I work part time and make my own schedule. My goal would be to spend as much time with the animal, and leave it as seldom as possible while in my care. We have a fenced portion of yard, walks can be provided. And for sleep we can crate or let free. Lots of love and snuggles too, of course!

Hope to see you soon! Happy tails! I do work full-time but have plenty of time in the evenings and weekends to take care of your pups. Just let me know what you need and we can figure something out! We have plenty of space and always watch our dogs when they're outside. We treat our pups like they are little humans, so your pup will easily be spoiled.
About: Adult human with many years of pet-owning and pet-sitting experience. Have hosted 15 foster dogs and puppies in past 2 years, setting them up for success with regular exercise and clear and consistent rules. I have a good set-up for hosting both dogs and cats responsibly. Please contact with any questions. I am a stay-at-home supportive spouse, meaning I am available to treat your pets like I treat my own. My pets are spoiled. And well-behaved. For dogs - have a fenced-in yard for safe pottying. I have a friendly adult female dog - spayed, and two well-behaved cats. I have local trails available where I exercise my own dog. I can provide a crate, if desired - I do request that your dog be crate-trained and I cannot accommodate a dog with a heavy prey-drive. For cats, I have an unused bedroom set up as a private suite, that my own pets do not have access to. This room has a window and plenty of cat napping options. I live on a quiet street. I am available to give your cat as much attention as they desire.
About: I have watched my friends and family’s pups like they’re my own countless times! We always have such a great time. I have one dog, Ricco, who is great with other pups of all sizes and ages. We have a large intended yard that’s great for fetch and trails nearby for walks or runs! I work 7.5hrs per day, MWF I work from home and TR I work in Wasilla. I like to take the fur babes everywhere that I can, just to get them out of the house, even if it’s mundane post office runs or whatever. Per manufacturer’s (owner’s) instructions! Try to keep pets apart when feeding. Let out as often as requested (and feasible per my work schedule). Like to let pets play together if they’re friendly to each other.
About: When your dog stays with us, they become part of our everyday life not just a guest. Our home is calm, welcoming, and centered around making dogs feel comfortable, safe, and included. With me home all day, your pup gets real attention not just quick check-ins. Whether it’s playtime with Diesel, relaxing in the house, or just being close to people, your dog will always feel cared for and never overlooked. I take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, and needs so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. You’ll get regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and truly being cared for ❤️ I started doing this with my daughter because of our love for dogs, and it’s turned into something really special for us & we look forward to every stay❤️ 🐾🐶 Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I provide constant supervision, ensure safe introductions, and give plenty of breaks when they need time to relax. With over an acre of fully fenced space, they’ll also have plenty of room to run, play, and get lots of exercise.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, so becoming a dog and cat sitter 4 years ago was a given. From senior snoozers to zoomy puppies, from ‘don’t touch me’ cats to ‘please love me immediately’ cats—I’ve handled it all and loved every second. I’m currently part time so I would have plenty of time to check in with your pets. My job is very flexible with breaks so I would still be able to check in halfway through the day. If watching pets in your home, I will ask for a list of expectations (feed times, concerns) so I can do the best job. I will be diligent about updating you, sending photos, and asking questions if they arise.

“Madelyn was very flexible for our last minute needs! She seemed very comfortable with different dog personalities and having a wide age range together. Hazel seemed to have a great time and I would definitely use Madelyn again!”

“We are so happy to have found this family to take care of our fur babies! We received updates while we were gone and knew our boys were in good hands. I’m sure they really loved being around the 4 kids and in a home versus being in a kennel somewhere. Thank you!”

“Justin was wonderful at dealing with our very needy Old English Bulldog. He sent pictures and updates over the 2 weeks he had Freya, putting our minds at ease. Our dog enjoyed her stay with Justin so much she didn't want to leave when I went to pick her up! We will definitely use Justin again in the future.”

“Nari was happy and healthy with Paula. She kept me informed as he was adjusting to being with her. Nari comes to work with me every day and hangs out in the car when I'm at work. Paula did the same with him to keep it as normal for him as possible. Will definitely re-book with her in the future.”

“Nichole has great communication, and went beyond our expectations taking care of our golden, Nala. We have been looking for a good, trustworthy home-away-from home for Nala and we feel like Nichole and her family provide exactly that. Nala got lots of play, snuggles, and attention. They also have a huge fenced yard and well-kept home. When I picked her up she was happy and tired! We highly recommend Nichole if you need a someone to look after your pup!”

“Denice was so kind and takes her role as a pet sitter very seriously. She knows animals and once I saw her set up I knew animals are her passion in life. Not a single thing will be missed with Denice watching your furbaby!”

“Tanner was fantastic with our dog, Kubo. We were gone for almost two weeks, and Tanner sent regular updates and photos. He has a very large yard for dogs to play in, and he took Kubo on a fun hike. I definitely would have Tanner watch our Kubo again.”

“Jennifer was awesome with my spoiled boy. She didn’t hesitate to include him as part of her family and spent a great deal of time making sure everything was just as I asked. I’m probably a helicopter dog mom, but Jennifer was more than willing to comply with all my quirky boy’s lifestyle. Would def recommend if you have a kiddo requiring extra attention or if you need piece of mind while your baby is in her care.”

“Kassandra did an amazing job taking care of my anxious dog. We got updates and appreciate the activity and attention given. My pup came back home happy, calm and relaxed. Wow!!!”

“They were absolutely amazing with our I year old Great Pyrenees. Amazing communication skills and it was great knowing he was safe and happy while we were on vacation. Will definitely be booking again in the future.”


“A dog lover all of her life and a very supportive family that together made our dog feel completely at home. A fenced yard and 2 lovely dogs of her own rounded out our dog's stay. Can't recommend her enough.”

“absolutely terrific. communication was excellent and always very prompt. She made sure we knew how he was doing and that he got walked a few times a day as part of Tina's normal routine.”


About: Hi! I’m a young, experienced dog trainer with a genuine love for animals of all sizes and personalities. I offer reliable dog training, boarding, and walking services in a safe, structured, and loving environment. My approach focuses on positive reinforcement, building confidence, and meeting each dog’s individual needs. Whether your pup needs daily walks, overnight care, or help with basic manners, they’ll be treated like family while in my care. I have plenty of time. In my schedule to come help out! Just let me know. Afternoons are best, or early mornings. Can’t wait to meet them. I have experience in dog first aid! Know dog body language, so I can read them to make sure they are comfortable. Dogs will always be on a leash! When outdoors. Unless in a fenced yard.
“Speedy drop off and pick up and super friendly. Appreciated the pics from the walks they went on. Was super convenient and Ashley was flexible on drop off and pick up times as well. Wonderful communication and no issues!”

“Jessica’s home was warm and inviting and extremely dog friendly. My 8 month old doesn’t have manners yet and is a bit rambunctious but Jessica was so patient with her. Sent me pics and videos of her days. If my dog Tilly could speak the day after I picked her up I just know she would have said I want to go over to my friends house! Thank you so much for loving her during my absence. You are my person I will always call you first! Thank you again!”

“I felt so comfortable leaving my dog here because she was awesome! She sent pictures to me of my dog while he was there which gave me that extra bit of comfort! She was great with communicating and I'll definitely be using her again!”

“Olga was so great with our 1 year old Labrador retriever. She sent a lot of photos of their walks and park plays. We felt safe knowing Olga was the perfect person for Lollie. Thank you Olga!”

About: My name is Cameron, and I’m a dog trainer offering personalized training and boarding services designed around the unique needs of each dog. I take a thoughtful, intentional approach prioritizing structure, environment, and overall well-being so every dog in my care feels safe, understood, and set up to succeed. No two dogs are the same, which is why I tailor each stay to match their temperament, behavior, and needs whether that means building reliable obedience, working through behavioral challenges, or enjoying a balanced and structured day-to-day life. When dogs stay with me for boarding, they’re not just being watched they’re cared for with purpose. Each dog follows a structured daily routine that includes exercise, enrichment, rest, and play, all adjusted to their individual energy level and personality. I’m very intentional about creating a calm, controlled environment, whether a dog thrives in a social setting or needs more one-on-one time and space. A big part of my program includes getting dogs out into the real world in a safe and structured way. We incorporate long walks, hikes, and adventure-style pack walks to build confidence, improve behavior in new environments, and allow dogs to decompress in a healthy, fulfilling way. These outings aren’t just for exercise they’re intentional training opportunities that help dogs learn how to exist calmly and neutrally around new sights, smells, and distractions. I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide range of dogs, from police K9s and sport dogs to beloved family pets and rescue cases. That experience allows me to confidently adapt to different drives, temperaments, and challenges. At the end of the day, my focus is on building clear communication, confidence, and trust so both you and your dog feel supported every step of the way. For the past four years, I have immersed myself in working with dogs across various fields, from pet dogs to police K9s and protection dogs. This diverse experience has enriched my skills and deepened my passion for canine care and training. My part-time job provides me with the flexibility to dedicate ample time to these incredible animals, allowing me to focus on their training, well-being, and development. This journey has been immensely rewarding, fostering a profound connection with each dog and enhancing my expertise in handling and training them. Ensuring the safety and well-being of dogs in my care is my top priority. I implement strict safety protocols, including secure environments, proper nutrition, regular health check-ups, and personalized training programs tailored to each dog's needs. I vigilantly monitor their behavior to prevent any potential issues and provide a nurturing atmosphere that promotes their physical and emotional health. By fostering a routine that balances exercise, socialization, and rest, I create a harmonious environment where each dog can thrive safely and happily.
