“Nathan & Laura were amazing!! They sent me lots of updates and photos and were true to their word...Star is exhausted from all the fun she had! I would definitely book with them again!”
“Another wonderful experience having Peter and Barb watch our two pups. We are so lucky to have found them and can leave town with total peace of mind that our girls are in excellent hands! They always come back tired and happy!”
“Zane and his wife were so friendly!! They sent us updated with our pups and we loved that. Our dogs had soo much fun there and were tired when we picked them up:) would recommend them to anyone!”
“Took care of my 6mo pup who was recently spayed. Made sure she didn't expend herself and irritate the incision, which is impressive considering my pup loves to jump and play with other dogs.”
“Patty was great she understood that Ed would need a little time to settle in she sent me great pictures of him enjoying her fenced grass yard he ate well and seemed rested when I picked him up”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with Reka! She kept me updated with great communication, photos, and regular updates. Reka received so much love and attention from Heather, her kids, and even the neighbors. She had a blast playing with other dogs and was truly treated like a princess. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—highly recommend!”
“Jamie was above and beyond an excellent sitter for our Heidi while we were on vacation! While our dog is a very sweet girl, she has some things going on as a puppy that can make her a handful - Jamie cared for her with grace and ease! Great communication and easy to book with. The only downside: we can’t bring her back to Rochester with us to use as our regular sitter!!”
“Nicole was awesome! Super good with communication and keeping us updated on how our pup was doing. Also Nicole was super flexible and very kind when our plans got shifted due to a flight cancellation. I highly recommend you book Nicole for all your pet sitting needs. We’re so happy that we knew our dog was in good hands and Nicole made sure we never had to worry about anything with our pup through our whole vacation.”
“Emily took wonderful care of our Stella while we were at an out state wedding. We were able to enjoy ourselves knowing Stella was well taken care. Emily did a great job of sending pictures thoroughout the weekend of Stella's happenings. I would highly recommend Emily. Her passion for animals, approachable personality, and flexibility made the experience a wonderful success!”
“Kelli was awesome to work with and they took amazing care of my Springer. I got regular updates and could tell he was getting lots of exercise and affection. Thanks Kelli and fam!”
“Kylee and her partner David were wonderful with our dog, Rusty! I could tell right away that they would be a good fit and that I could trust them. They provided updates and pictures which helped me feel at ease while I was away. Rusty got lots of cuddles and even got to go on a hike with them, which he loves to do! I will definitely be reaching out to Kylee any time I need someone to watch our pup.”
“Wonderful experience for our pup and for us. As a nervous mom I was put at ease with not only how comfortable our dog was in her new environment but also with all the wonderful updates and pictures throughout the visit. Truly a wonderful, caring and responsible environment!”
“Lisa took great care of our dog while we were away. She was always prompt with communication and also kept us updated with pics and videos (but not an overwhelming amount of them). Opie returned home worn out from playing with His new furry pals. He also returned mysteriously smelling like a newly-groomed dog....:) We will definitely look to Lisa for future care for our pooch while we are away.”
About: Hi, I’m Sierra! I’ve loved animals my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I enjoy getting to know each one so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own by providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, potty breaks, walks, and any special needs to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care and make sure both you and your pet have the best experience possible. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I work hard to keep each pet on their normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I always keep a close eye on the pets in my care and treat them with the same love, patience, and respect I would give my own. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Shiloh did amazing with our golden doodle Jinx! She sent sweet update photos and jinx came back happy as ever. Her children gave our dog lots of love and her dog was very sweet and playful!”

“This was our second time booking with Sabrina and her daughter! We appreciate them so much, they always do such a wonderful job checking on our cats. We will definitely continue to book with them!”
“Courtney was the sweetest individual ever who took such good care of my kitty while he stayed with her. Most people wouldn't be willing to board a cat for near a week and she not only did but she did everything she could to make him comfortable during that time. Will absolutely be booking with her again!!”
“Beth was wonderfully professional!!! She sent us pictures of our pets and a brief report every night! It put our minds at ease that she was taking such good care of our pets and watched our house, including bringing in the mail and watering the plants. I recommend her highly!!”
“Christina is wonderful with animals and very professional. She took care of my two cats and hamster while we were on vacation. She was reliable and kept me informed about the status of my animals. She communicates very well. I already booked our next vacation with Christina watching our pets. I recommend her 100%!”
“We had an unexpected trip out of town and on short notice she came and did a meet and greet and then checked in on our cats while we were gone and made sure they got their medicines each visit. Having Talia stop in and give our cats medicines while we were gone was such a load off my anxiety. She communicated when she'd be headed over and a quick update on our cats. Highly recommend.”
About: Hello there! I have been working in the pet industry for 6 years now and two years not in the industry. I have done everything from training to grooming. Currently living in Minneapolis, I have one larger dog named Gros tet (big head). He melts like butter and plays according to the animal visitors play type! When you book with me know your animals are in good hands, I will ask questions before the final book to make sure it is a good fit for you and for me. Communication is key in my eyes, and I love sending photo updates throughout the day! 2019 I left the active duty military, and my husband of 3 years is still active duty Marines. (So if you have an energetic pup that needs some run time we would be happy to accommodate!) when it comes to grooming, I operate my at home salon…well at home… could be good for some doggies and not so much for others. Ask away! I love giving recommendations to educate people about their pets:) Much love, The Legers At the moment I do not work but I go to online college! I’m typically home all day unless I need to step out for errands. We go to bed around 10-12pm and wake up around 7am everyday. Pretty relaxed. If you have a list I’ll gladly go through it. Every dog is different and with ever dog routines need to be adjusted. Since I already have a dog in home usually, visiting dogs like following him around, typically he is a very good trend setter! I will only do things I feel comfortable with, for example, if weather is bad and you would like a walk during the day, the animals safety comes first! We will try other games around the house! Or maybe even a training/mental stimulation session!
About: I have owned cats my entire life. My very first pet was a Siamese cat named Emma that I got for Christmas when I was 7 years old. Since then I have owned pretty much every breed of cat throughout my lifetime. I have owned mama cats, and kittens. I have no problem cleaning litter boxes and have no allergies.
About: Hi there! If you’re looking for someone who truly adores animals, you’ve come to the right place! From childhood through high school, I spent my time walking neighborhood dogs alongside caring for our own family pets. I was known around the neighborhood as the reliable babysitter and animal lover everyone could count on! At 17, I took on the rewarding challenge of training my own Service Dog, which gave me even more hands-on experience and deepened my love and understanding of dogs. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities! From gentle senior pups who need a slower pace to week-old puppies still with their mama. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know and care for hundreds of dogs, each with their own unique personality and needs. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I’m currently on summer break from college, which means I will have plenty of time and flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and quality pet care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your furry family member. I tailor my care to each individual pup and always work closely with pet parents to create the safest and most comfortable environment possible, because nobody knows your dog better than you do! I have safety plans and routines in place for different types of care and am always happy to adapt to your pet’s unique needs, personality, and routine. Feel free to message me with any questions about my services or safety measures! I’d love to chat and help you feel confident and comfortable when booking with me!
“Another great stay! This was my third booking with Kim and my kitties absolutely loved her visits. It's great knowing I can enjoy my vacations and not worry, while Kim is caring for my boys!!”
About: My goal is to make your time away from your family member as stress free as possible for both of you. I honestly didn't create this account solely for a few extra dollars, although that's a nice bonus. I just love having extra dogs around, and my dog appreciates the company too. Socialization is (should be) a life long process after all. I have a fully fenced yard for potty breaks and we get out for walks daily. A little about me...I'm 37 and I've been in Duluth for 19 years. I moved here to attend college, and loved it so much I never left after graduating. I work from home full time for UnitedHealth Group, which my dog, Copper, is a huge fan of. I adopted him in April of 2023 and I'm looking forward to showing him a lifetime of adventures. I'm well versed in the areas of dog training and behavior, as well how dogs communicate with us and with one another. A little about my pets... Miss Nala, who's pictured in some of my photos, passed in February of 2023 after almost 14 years of being the best bud I could've asked for. I absolutely think Pitties are the best dogs out there, but decided on a breed that would be a little more hardy for our MN weather this time around and that's how Copper came into my life. I'd be happy (perfer) to set up a meet & greet before hand for everyones peace of mind. Just like people, two friendly dogs may not always get along. Of course, there's no fee for this! See my calendar for availability. Please note, although I work from home, weekday availability begins at 3pm unless the pet is okay being crated or trusted unsupervised during my work hours (to be let out for playtime/potty breaks while I am on break). Your pup will be treated like family and will have my undivided attention while in my care. Lots of space for playtime in my fenced backyard and plenty of comfy furniture inside to relax on. :)
About: I was never a cat person until I found a kitten on the side of the road and took her home. Now I couldn’t imagine my life without a cat! I currently have 2 cats of my own, Jam is a 1 and a half year old Tuxedo cat and Momo is a 9 year old Flame Point Siamese. I have experience cleaning ears and giving meditation to cats, as my Momo is more on the elderly side and needs a little extra TLC. :) Of course nobody loves cleaning litter boxes, but for a feline friend I gladly do it! :)
About: I’ve grown up around cats and currently have my own indoor/outdoor cat who I’ve cared for over the past two years. I’m familiar with their unique personalities and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for—whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company.
About: Hi! My name is Abigail, and I’m 24 years old. I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always felt like second nature to me. I have experience working with a wide range of pets, including dogs of all energy levels—from high-energy breeds that need structure and engagement to calm, easygoing companions like golden retrievers—as well as cats with a variety of personalities. I’m comfortable adapting my care to meet each animal’s unique needs. I currently offer in-home pet sitting, providing attentive care in your pet’s familiar environment so they can remain comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I also provide basic training support and walking assistance, especially for owners who may need extra help keeping their pets active and well cared for. I’m open to caring for other animals as well, such as birds or reptiles, as long as clear instructions are provided to ensure their routines and needs are met properly. With availability during the second half of my week, I’m excited to grow my pet-sitting business long term. My goal is to earn trust, build strong relationships with both pets and owners, and eventually turn my passion for animal care into a full-time career. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I look forward to connecting with interested pet owners and would be happy to answer any questions. Wishing you a wonderful day! I currently work the first half of the week but am available after 4 PM on Wednesdays and anytime from Thursday through Saturday. With this flexibility, I’m able to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets during my off days. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I closely follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions provided by the owner. I keep a clean, pet-safe space, supervise pets at all times, and never introduce new animals without permission. In a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure. I pay close attention to pets’ body language and behavior to keep them comfortable and stress free. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so owners can feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

“This was my dog Ellie's first time staying with someone she didn't know. Chistina made her feel at home by introducing her dogs one by one. When I left, 3 of them were playing fetch together.”
“Laura and Nathan were fantastic! They made me feel confident and secure leaving my pup with them. They provided great feedback and lots of pictures. They are gems.”
“We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Rachel and her wonderful family! They looked after Jack while we attended a wedding, and from the moment we met them, we knew he was in the best hands. Rachel was incredibly kind, caring, and thoughtful, and her whole family made Jack feel completely at home. It was so reassuring knowing he was being loved and cared for as if he were part of their own family. We could relax and enjoy the wedding knowing he was so happy and comfortable. Jack was so well looked after, and it’s clear Rachel genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she watches. We are beyond grateful for everything she did and would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and amazing with dogs. Thank you again, Rachel!”
“Patty is the absolute best. Our boy is reactive, and when we had family visit, we needed a place for him to stay during the day to avoid the stress of having strangers (to him) in the house. Oh my goodness I cannot say enough good things about his stay! She was so flexible with timing, which was great since our dinners and activities were very variable. She gave us lots of pictures, followed his lead on if/when he wanted to meet new dogs, and he was so excited to see her every day! She was responsive, kind, and the big yard to run around in was so so good for him. Patty is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs, and asked all the questions that made me feel like she was going to handle our dog well. She gives full answers to any questions you may have, as well. We will for sure be using her again!”
“Great rover! We had our dog spend the day at Jamie’s place for the day while we had family over. Jamie was super nice and super thoughtful and accommodating with our dog. Would definitely go with her again in the future!”

“Heather and her family did such an amazing job with Edie. They helped her ease into a new environment and gave her lots of love and affection. Heather sent many updates during the day and in all the pictures Edie looked happy and content. When Edie got home she was exhausted from a day of fun. I would recommend Heather to anyone looking for care for their pup!”
“Nicole is great to work with. She is very good with my dog. She takes him to dog parks and on walks and when he comes home, he is tired! She is knowledgeable and has shared some tips with me which I really appreciate. She communicates with me during the day and sends lots of pictures. I am very grateful to have found her!”
“We have used Casey a couple of times now and plan to use him even more in the future. He’s very responsive anytime we reach out and regularly checks in and provides updates on our pup. While leaving Sampson with him for day care, he took him out on a walk with the pack and sent through some videos and pictures of he and the other dogs romping around. I highly recommend him!”
“Courtnie is absolutely fantastic! My little guy is usually a bit skittish when going to a new home for day care but he warmed up extremely well with Courtnie and her dogs! She is super accommodating and incredible when it comes to the care of dogs, very highly recommended her! Thank you so much!! ?”
“Not only were Aneesa and Ethan super flexible with working out pick-up/drop-off times, but Chester also came home SO happy and obviously well taken care of during his stay. Can't wait for the puppies to hang out again!”
“She did a great job with Lola. We really appreciated the last minute accommodation and she was very flexible with our time. Thank you again. Will definitely use again when in the area.”
About: Hi there! My name is Savannah (or Sav for short!) and I’ve worked in pet care for 6 years in Minneapolis before moving to Duluth, resulting in completing hundreds of walks and dozens of sittings- and I love what I do! I also am the dog mom of a spunky 11 year old German Shepard mix. I understand the need for detailed and compassionate care, especially in the winter and summer when extra resources like dog boots or extra water may be needed. The pets I’ve had in my care lately range from pit bulls and labs to pugs and even older dogs. I am excited to meet your dog! I spend all day, everyday walking dogs of all ages and breeds. Pet care is my full time job and I love what I do! Many dogs feel most comfortable in their own home so I am happy to provide sittings in your home to care for your pet the way you would! I have experience training and specific requests, like administering medications. I always will treat your pet with the utmost care and respect!
About: I have 6 years in animal care 2 years of that is working animal control for the city! I love caring for other pets and animals.

“Christina is wonderful with our 4 month old puppy Dolly. She has been very helpful in the training and socializing processes. She is very kind, patient, courteous and responsible. Christina communicates all needs or issues respectfully. Christina does her best to accommodate any changes to Dolly’s walk schedule. We feel 100% confident that Christina cares for Dolly as if she were one of her own. My husband and I can not say enough good things about Christina. If we could we would definitely give her way more than 5 stars. We would 100% recommend Christina to all of our family and friends.”
“Audriana is fantastic! She gives my updates of how my puppy is doing on his walks and sends me pictures. She also gave me over a months notice when she was going to be out of town and not able to walk my little guy. Would HIGHLY recommend Audriana.”

About: I love animals of all shapes, breeds, sizes etc. Growing up I was surrounded by a variety of dogs; collies, mastiffs, and great danes. There was never a time we did not have a dog. I have a lot of experience with dogs and some with cats. I am also very familiar with geckos and bearded dragons. I had a crested gecko as well as a bearded dragon. I currently have two dogs: Skye and Bella. They are sisters who look and act completely different. Skye has had some medical issues so I'm familiar with medication administration and cleaning out ears. I work short shifts at my regular jobs so just message me to see if I am good fit for your fur babies! I will always do my best to make things work In my home, I walk my dogs around the neighborhood 3-4 times a day. So I would do the same for your dog(s). We love to go to the dog park and try to do that every week. With your approval that is always an option. In your home, I will make sure to follow your instructions so that you and your fur baby are as comfortable and happy as can be.
About: I have owned my dogs since they were puppies and trained them myself for general commands as sit, down and come, and also potty training. I also grew up with cats. I also used to have a roommate where I would assist in the care of her German Shepherd as well who does not do well with strangers, which makes me used to big dogs that seem scary and can pull if they want to. I have one dog of my own currently and a toddler. We live in our own home in town with a fenced yard. I have already had COVID-19 and also am fully vaccinated for COVID-19. I currently work full time 9-5 job Monday-Friday straight. I can easily schedule drop ins and walks fitting around this schedule as my regular schedule is extremely predictable. I’m flexible in needing to leave work early if I need to on certain days and may be able to accommodate for last minute changes in your needs. I am comfortable with both shy and overly exitable pets of all sizes and can match their energy and needs. I will take pets on outings and work with training on request.
About: I've been taking care of pets for 6 years and have 4 pets currently. Bluto (olde english bulldogge), Ruby (rottweiler), Tibby (siamese), and Molly (longhair). I do have experience with senior cats and dogs. We can talk a long walk on nature trails, or we can go for a slow stroll around the neighborhood! I only do gig work, so my schedule can fit around whatever your needs are. If something ever changes, you can always reach out and we'll work something out. For drop ins, I'll stop in and make sure theres no potty mess and if your kitty wants to we can play with whatever toys are available. We'll play for a bit so they're happy and worn out by the time we're done.

“Amber is the best! I'm so happy with how it's going with my pups! My chihuahua-dachshund is impossible to walk but just a couple of weeks of walking with Amber and he's walking without pulling!!”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I grew up with long haired dachshunds. I have also owned labs, a Dalmatian, huskies, you name it. I love big cuddly dogs the most, but will love up on the smallest to the biggest dog the same. I also have a big heart for senior pets. I work full-time during the week but I am always on the go and able to help with pet sitting, dog walking, helping with caring for animals as needed. I am available for house-sitting depending on the days/times. When I go to someone's home to care for their pet I will treat it as though it is my own pet, which is with the utmost care, kindness and love. I have a huge heart for all living beings including animals and humans. I am highly responsible, and responsive.
About: I have two dogs of my own and foster regularly for a local rescue. Friends and family often rely on me for pet sitting because they trust my reliability, responsibility, and genuine love for animals. I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and attentive care to every pet I meet. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I work part-time mowing lawns and driving for Uber. This gives me the flexibility to schedule visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I enjoy being active and outdoors, and I love incorporating pet care into my daily flow. At home, I have a nice fenced-in yard with an in-ground system that’s safe and comfortable for pets to enjoy. When I’m in your home, I always respect your pet’s routine and preferences, making sure they feel secure and cared for in their own space.
About: I have had dogs in the past but now have only cats that don’t like being outside, i love walking my friends dogs in the summer because i love being outside and i love dogs! I work full time but love walking outside and love furry friends!! I have 3 cats at home so i can’t have dogs at home but absolutely adore them and love taking my friends dogs for walks! I am a very safe and cautious driver and know many trails around the area to take your furry friends on walks not far from home!!
“I received a cuter pic of my dog sitting so pretty than I’ve ever been able to take. Sav was punctual and had good communication throughout. I know my dog is in good hands. Will book again!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, from puppies to the elderly. They’re all adorable! I have experience giving medication such as pills and ear drops. I love all dogs and will clean up a mess they’ve made even if it’s inconvenient. Baths are always a struggle for most dogs, but I think of it as a fun challenge! I’m always putting my all into caring for your pet! I’m currently attending college, so I will take care of your adorable dogs when I’m not at school or at work! I have class on Thursdays, and I work at my internship on Tuesdays and Fridays! I also work my part time job in the evenings Monday-Friday. My more flexible availability would be on Mondays, Wednesdays and weekends! But if you need me to help out on any day of the week we can talk and we can try to work it out! I have always had plenty of animals in the home growing up! I’ve taken care of puppies and older dogs, I love them all! I’m always willing to go the extra mile to make sure they get what they need. You just need to communicate what their needs are and I will do my best! Your dogs comfort and happiness is my top priority always! I have experience with cats as well! I rescued a kitten on the side of the road almost 2 years ago and now I have a love for cats! :) I have a younger cat and an older cat so I have experience with cleaning ears and giving meditation!
About: I have had multiple dogs ever since I was born and love providing care for them. My grandparents also owned a dog kennel so have always been aware of proper exercise, care, and support for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Lastly, I am in school to become a nurse so caring for others is a passion of mine! I currently am a college student moving back to Duluth over the summer and work two jobs which allow me the availability to pick and chose the days I work so if enough in advance I am very available to fit pet care into my weekly routine any day of the week! I have a half fenced in yard at my house but also very aware of the area and neighbors surrounding. I have easy access to hook up a long leash for the dog to play while I supervise as well as, no other dogs live with me.
About: I've had many different pets since I was a kid dogs ranging from German Shepherds to Pomeranians. I've owned many cats, and had birds, guinea pigs, and Snakes. So I can manage in a multi-pet home. Also I have experience giving cats oral medications as mine need some. I work full time but have 1 hour breaks 2 times throughout my day M-F, I can stop by and do pet checks, and on the weekends I have all day availability. I will follow directions to a tea to keep your pets routine as normal as possible. On walks I can stop by parks and run around or play games with them.
About: I have over ten years of pet ownership and care experience. I have owned or cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, snakes, geckos, cattle, pigs, horses etc. I am an animal lover and will give your pets the same love I give to my own! I am currently on my summer break from veterinary school, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available for a wide variety of services. I am extremely attentive and take great pride in the attention to detail and thoroughness that I use in my daily life. I respect homeowner and pet owner rules completely. I will take extra precaution to ensure the safety and health of your animals in my care.
About: I have had all types of animals since the age of 4: Dogs, rescue dogs, cats, bunnies, ducks, chickens, birds, horses, etc. It’s safe to say I have a ton of experience, knowledge, and confidence when it comes to caring for your furry friend! I am a public school teacher, so I won’t be available between 8am to 5pm during the work week. I am extremely flexible and can make most accommodations work. I am able to do anything to make your pet feel loved, safe, and comfortable in my care. This will require clear and direct communication about your pets character and habits to ensure your pet is happy and comfortable.

“Patty was great she understood that Ed would need a little time to settle in she sent me great pictures of him enjoying her fenced grass yard he ate well and seemed rested when I picked him up”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with Reka! She kept me updated with great communication, photos, and regular updates. Reka received so much love and attention from Heather, her kids, and even the neighbors. She had a blast playing with other dogs and was truly treated like a princess. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—highly recommend!”
“Jamie was above and beyond an excellent sitter for our Heidi while we were on vacation! While our dog is a very sweet girl, she has some things going on as a puppy that can make her a handful - Jamie cared for her with grace and ease! Great communication and easy to book with. The only downside: we can’t bring her back to Rochester with us to use as our regular sitter!!”
“Emily took wonderful care of our Stella while we were at an out state wedding. We were able to enjoy ourselves knowing Stella was well taken care. Emily did a great job of sending pictures thoroughout the weekend of Stella's happenings. I would highly recommend Emily. Her passion for animals, approachable personality, and flexibility made the experience a wonderful success!”
“Kylee and her partner David were wonderful with our dog, Rusty! I could tell right away that they would be a good fit and that I could trust them. They provided updates and pictures which helped me feel at ease while I was away. Rusty got lots of cuddles and even got to go on a hike with them, which he loves to do! I will definitely be reaching out to Kylee any time I need someone to watch our pup.”
“Wonderful experience for our pup and for us. As a nervous mom I was put at ease with not only how comfortable our dog was in her new environment but also with all the wonderful updates and pictures throughout the visit. Truly a wonderful, caring and responsible environment!”
“Lisa took great care of our dog while we were away. She was always prompt with communication and also kept us updated with pics and videos (but not an overwhelming amount of them). Opie returned home worn out from playing with His new furry pals. He also returned mysteriously smelling like a newly-groomed dog....:) We will definitely look to Lisa for future care for our pooch while we are away.”
