“Our senior spaniel did great spending a long weekend at Holly's house. It was the first time was have done in-house boarding. We definitely prefer having our pup stay with Holly then in a traditional kennel.”
“I completely echo the positive reviews from Dondee’s other happy pet parents! Wilson was so well-cared for and we received plenty of updates and cute pictures throughout his stay. He played so much with Dondee’s puppy, Rain, that he had too much fun to miss us. We returned home with a very happy (and tired) pup!”
“There aren’t words to describe how happy we were with Elizabeth and the care she provided our Beau… she treated him as if he was hers and I couldn’t have asked for more… The amount of pictures and updates she provided was absolutely fantastic and so so so greatly appreciated! I didn’t worry about him in the slightest while we were away, just missed him! Thank you so much Elizabeth ❤️”
“Kassandra was absolutely amazing with my high energy yellow lab! She gave her lots of love and exercise and gave me updates at least daily. We will definitely be bringing Rosie back!”
About: I have a 11 month old puppy that I have started training and taking care of since 8 weeks old. I also talk him on regular walks, and bathe him. My oldest dog is almost 3 and I have also have had him since he was 8 weeks old. I have watched and walked other dogs for friends and family overnight and for extended periods. I could pet care in the summer almost every day, since I am a teacher. Some things may come up, but I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would prefer to care for pets in my home during the day to make the pet more comfortable. I am able to play with, feed, bathe, walk, etc. I have a fenced in backyard! I would love if you are ok with my 11 month aussiedoodle came with on walks or house sitting.
About: I've been dog sitting on and off since my 20's. Most were co-workers and family. I walked, bathed, brushed and given medicine, both orally and topical as required. I'm currently retired and can dog sit 7 days a week with advance notice. I can also day board as early as 7am and pick up as late as 6pm. If different hours are needed I can be flexible. I have a very large home where your dog can roam freely inside. However, I don't have a fenced in yard. I do have a secure tie line attached to my home. Your dog will never be left outside by themselves as I will be there with them.
About: I have babysat or taken care of dogs/animals ever since I was a child. To this day I will take in pets that are hurt or homeless until they are rehabilitated or find a good home. I have experience with all ages and stages of canine. Experience training dogs, nurturing them back to health, birthing, caring for seniors and special needs, bottle feeding babies, and much more. Let me know what your special needs are! I homestead and care for livestock on our farm. I have a pretty open availability. My largest chores here are completed early morning and late evening, giving me opportune time to be available during the days for checking in on, playing with and feeding, walking or housing your pup. I do not crate animals unless specified by owner. They will hang out with my family and I like they are our own if they are staying with us. I will follow and respect your rules for your pet in your homes and mine. We can work together with any special needs. I have an incredibly flexible schedule which allows me plenty of time for drop-in visits, doggie day sitting or to go on walks with your incredible pup. I will follow and abide by the rules you have in your home for pup. During our meet and greet we will go over all expectations, needs and rules for your doggie.

“Did everything for my cat as advertised and even went beyond with bringing in packages and cleaning up my cat's litter mess. She changed water out every day and showed up on time. Definitely recommend choosing her to watch your pet.”
“Holly was absolutely amazing! I was so initially so nervous to leave my diabetic cat home alone while we were away on vacation, but she did such a fabulous job making sure she was on time for every visit to give him his insulin on time every day. She also sent a report card with photos after every visit. I appreciate her so much and definitely recommend her!”
“She was always here at the same time. My cat loved her when she met her. when I got home, Jadzia seemed at ease, calm, and curious. She looked happy. Thank you for taking good care of her while I was gone”
“Angelina was very prompt with her messaging. She was reliable as she showed up at the appropriate time and followed my pets care instructions exactly. I came home to find my furry friend properly cared for. I would use her again!”
About: I have checked in on friends cats for decades. I love all cats, but give them their space when they need it. Happy to fill food and fresh water, give treats and canned food, and clean litter boxes if necessary. I am that friend that comes over and picks up the cat that “hates everybody!” I have experience caring for special needs cats as well. My Jazzy has “wobbly kitty” disorder and I have also provided saline injections in another cat.
“These 2 were so wonderful! They took care of our sick kitty so well. He looked comfortable and happy in all their update pictures and they followed our feeding instructions to a T. 10/10 would recommend them.”

“Holly is great. She is great with both of our dogs, is very professional and dependable, and easy to work with. Thank you for taking such great care of our pups. We will certainly be using you again.”
About: HELLO! I have been taking care of all kinds of dogs from pups to senior pets who have special needs. I have done stuff like this ever since I was in middle school. I am very flexible with my time. I do have a cat allergy but that won’t stop me from that either! I’m always here to help you’re best friend 😊 Im very flexible with my schedule for a couple months! I can do early mornings to late nights. I’m always able to help with anything! I’m very detail oriented and need straightforward instructions in order to properly care for a pet. The more straightforward the instructions the better! I treat any pet as if they were my own. Maybe a chance to spoil with my special frozen pet friendly watermelon slush for the hot summer days? Or a little trip to get a pup cup? My dogs are spoiled and I miss them so much so this would be a win-win for the both of us 🤣
