“Aisha was great and very accommodating. She boarded Oliver even though it was kinda last minute. And she was understanding when I was late picking up Oliver due to traffic!”

“Teigan was awesome with our girl Faye! She watches other dogs so Faye was able to make some friends and enjoy her time while we were out of town. She came back happy and ready for a nap after her fun filled weekend. We don't have any complaints, Teigan replied when we checked on Faye and sent a few pictures as well! Her set up was great with a lot of room for Faye to run around. I definitely recommend her. 😊”

“Julie was absolutely amazing with my dogs! She was so great about keeping in touch/responding with any issues or updates as well as sending pictures to show how much fun they were having. I would absolutely recommend her!”

“My dog loved his stay! He came back tired and happy from getting to play outside with other dogs. Chelsea was very accommodating when we couldn't pick our dog up at the original time. We will definitely be using her services again.”

“Stephanie and her girls were so sweet with my dog! She is also great with communication! I got multiple pictures of Rex doing what he loves. It is clear that she has taught her kids how to be respectful of an animal’s boundaries and letting them acclimate as they are in a new environment. I know Rex would be happy to go back for another visit!”

“Chris did a great job taking care of our dog, Jefferson, and was available over Memorial weekend, which was so helpful. Throughout the 2-week stay, he provided pictures and updates to us. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for someone to take care of (and love) their pet.”

“We were very happy to meet Steven and Karin. This was our first time boarding Ted with them, and Steven offered a Meet & Greet to make sure we were a good fit. From the start, they were extremely friendly and made Ted feel comfortable. They also have a very sweet, well-behaved dog who got along great with Ted. Ted came home happy and completely exhausted, which is rare for him! We highly recommend them and will definitely book again.”

“This was the first time I used Rover for Nahla and Levi and it was such a smooth process! Laurent sent me pictures everyday and the dogs loved it there! Will definitely be using Lauren again!”

“Chloe was the absolute best sitter we could have ever asked for. She truly cares about the fur babies she is caring for. She kept in contact with us sending messages and pictures. We had a stressful situation that led to her watching Lizzy and she went over and above just babysitting, she made having to leave her for 3 days and 2 nights easier. She will always be our go to if we ever need a sitter again.”

“This was the first time we’ve left our dog overnight with someone besides family and Crissy was so great! She sent updates and took great care of my pup! We will definitely use her again when needed!”

“Donovan was very accommodating and understanding with our pit bull! His place was very clean and seemed like a safe place for our boy. We were even running behind on our pickup time and he was very understanding and flexible. As well as sending us photo updates. Will be using him again in the future :)”

“Victoria B. is an excellent doggie sitter. She took care of my Cavatzu for 10+ days and sent a picture of him regularly. That in itself told me he was very secure and doing fine. I highly recommend Victoria B. She will take good care of your little buddy just as her own. Thank her for your services.”

“Nina was amazing. Tucker had a lot of fun with her. I’m sure he enjoyed a lot playing with her big and sweet dogs. She sent me pictures and was very responsive. And besides that he got home worn out, meaning that he burned a lot of his energy.”

About: I have always loved dogs and taking care of them for friends and family. I have taken care of a variety of dogs from the size of a Chihuahua to a Labrador. When my grandparents would go on trips, they always trusted me to care for their dogs. I have taken care of puppies and older dogs, some who have needed medicine or special care. I have house sat for my sister while taking care of her lab and husky for a week. My previous roommate recommended me to her friend to take care of her dog and cat several times. A couple times I have housed a friend's dog when he goes on trips. I recently started helping train a friends puppy who is full of energy. Every Saturday for about 4 years, I helped my parent's neighbor take care of the foster dogs she housed. I would help feed them, take them outside, and put them in crates when they were off to be adopted. One time she had a litter of puppies, so I would go and help take care of them or help the mom rest from the puppies. When she would go on vacation, my family would take care of her own dogs. I am currently looking for work, so I am free during most of each week. I attend church Sunday morning and have church group on Tuesday and Thursday nights. These activities will not get in the way of me taking care of your pets. I do not have any dogs of my own, but I am considered an aunt to many dogs by their owners. I will follow the routine and house rules that you have set for your pets when I take care of them in your house. I am able to take your pets on walks or to the park, if allowed. I can watch your pets while they are roaming around the backyard, if needed. I have some experience crating dogs.
