“Oh my God. Chantel is the best. We had never been separated from our Dog since we got her in November 2023. She did a great job caring for our baby girl for 6 days while we were away. She kept us informed of how she was doing and shared videos of her the entire time we were away. She is truly an amazing and gentle pet lover. We would highly recommend her to care for your pets when needed. We would definitely give her a 5 Star rating 😉 Thanks so much Chantel and family for loving our baby girl while we were away.”
“Very thankful to have Samira take care of our puppy during the Thanksgiving holiday! He has a lot of energy and is only 6 months old. Very friendly family and would definitely have them keep Rip again. Highly recommend!”
“Lisa treated my dog, Diego, like one of her own! He spent the weekend at Lisa’s house and was spoiled! We knew Diego was being well cared for by Lisa and her sweet family, and that put our minds at ease. We will definitely be booking with Lisa in the future!”
“Kordula was amazing! She took such great care of our dog during the entire stay. I received consistent updates, photos, and videos that gave me complete peace of mind while we were away.

She loved playing with all the kids and their pups. Communication from Kaitlin & Jeff was fabulous! We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone.”

Thank you again Alison, we will def be seeing you again soon! :)”

“She was an amazing dog sitter. She kept Sheba for 3 days and kept us informed the entire time. She let us know right away if anything was off and truly cared about Sheba’s wellbeing. She was also very kind and professional when we met. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Caitlin! She was absolutely incredible—by far the best sitter we’ve had for Sully. She kept us constantly updated with pictures and messages, which made it so easy to relax and enjoy our own vacation knowing he was in such good hands. From the looks of it, Sully had his own vacation filled with fun, cuddles, and adventures. We’ll definitely be booking with Caitlin again—she’s a true gem!”

We also have a dog fence we could make a play area for.

About: I have plenty of experience. I would often pet sit for my parents neighbors and I always grew up with pets in the house. I currently have cats, dogs and chickens. I helped take care of my family dog from when she was a puppy until she was old and could barely walk. I have a dog I got as a puppy and trained him myself and I trained my parents dog when she was a puppy, I taught her all the tricks she knows. I also have a dog with epilepsy so I have experience giving medication. I’m currently self employed and make my own hours and I stay home with my step daughter so I have lots of time on my hands. I am great at caring for your pets needs however you need. I’ve given medication to both cats and dogs so if it is something your pet needs I am the person for you.
“My dogs were very happy and healthy when we arrived home. They definitely enjoyed having Annalise stop by to see them and walk them. She did very well with pics and notes from each visit. Definitely would book again!! And 100% recommend.”
“Gigi was amazing! She got to know our kitties before coming to house sit, she kept me updated with pictures and statuses throughout each day, and she answered promptly when I would reach out. She made sure to ask me before doing anything we hadn’t previously discussed and is an overall sweetheart! I will 100% use her again and I recommend the same to others.”
About: Hello! I’ve grown up with dogs almost all of my life. The only time I didn’t have a pet was when I first moved away from home, but I got my wonderful dog, Poppy, as soon as possible.

“They were amazing! I was nervous to leave my pups but they were so tuckered out when they got home and I know they took great care of them while staying there! Will definitely use them again when I need a sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, and recently gained experience caring for cats, birds and rabbits. I have also spent some free time volunteering in animal shelters so I am comfortable with all animal sizes. I hope to care for your fur baby soon! I currently work remotely full time which allows me to spend time with pets who are in need of boarding. Because of my time at home, pets will receive lots of attention and care. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who are fully vaccinated and enjoy playing with others. One is an American foxhound and the other is a great dane
“First and best experience with a pet sitter! I’ll always have her watch my pups, she treats them like her own family! My doggies are well cared for and I feel mentally at ease.”

About: I’ve had my own pets since I was old enough to walk! I have a cat and great dane, and have had many other small pets in the past. I walk my great dane every day and I am happy to take care of your little loved ones! I am a full time student and work/volunteer part time, so I try to be as flexible as I can with clients. I am happy to make space in my schedule to take care of your furry friends! I do not leave pets unattended. I am very observant and quick on my feet. Your pets safety is my #1 concern. My pets get loads of love and attention they need at home
About: I have diverse experience in different professional and educational roles that provided me with opportunities to service customers, athletes, and furry friends with the most positive experiences possible. From birth, I have lived with dogs and have never gone a day without having one by my side. I have over 15 years experience of dog training, dog sitting, house sitting, and other activities to supplement these disciplines. My strength is centered on my ability to communicate and educate appropriately with dogs and humans alike. I believe dogs are such a blessing to each human's life and we must exercise and provide them with their most primal needs so we can live in harmony! I am a friendly outgoing worker with a knack for making people feel comfortable and have an experience that goes above and beyond their expectations. I have no doubt you will find that I am an excellent candidate for your needs. It would be a dream to be able to put these qualities to work with you and your furry friend.
“Marlon was great with our pup, it was Genji’s first time with daycare, first time being away from home and he was a little anxious but Marlon made sure Genji felt comfortable. He”
About: We're conveniently located just off of hwy 401 and near I-95 and I-40. I've always had family pets since I was the age of 2. I've cared for all ages of dogs and cats. I've been a midwife to many previous cats, bottle fed, watched live births of pups, and administered oral medications. I am always available for play time and snuggle time. I currently work part-time and am only away for 6 hours during the day. During this time my husband or my teen are usually home for part of that time. It's perfect because our pets aren't left all alone for very long. I have 2 dogs, one is playful and one is very relaxed. They have been around other dogs a number of times and loves playing at the dog park. They are friendly. At night our dogs are able to go upstairs and sleep in our room. During your pups stay, they are welcome to sleep anywhere in the house. We have a spare room downstairs that I'm happy to stay in if they need that (my dogs take up our whole bed upstairs). If your pup is crate trained and prefers their crate, I suggest you bring it for their stay so they can feel more at home.
About: Hello, I am Ang, a passionate and caring pet lover who has been a proud dog owner for over 15 years. With a spacious yard and plenty of play space, Our home is the perfect destination for dogs who need a comfortable and loving place to stay while their owners are away. We are a family that works from home so you can expect round the clock care for your pup. As a lover of travel, I understand how difficult it is to find quick, affordable care for my dogs. I am hoping to provide that service to those in the community that can relate. As a beginner Rover, I am excited to open my home to new furry friends and provide them with the same level of care and attention that I give to my own dogs. I am committed to making sure each dog in their care feels comfortable and happy, whether it's through long walks, extra snuggles, or just spending time together in the yard. I understand that every dog has unique needs and preferences, and I am dedicated to creating a tailored experience for each pup we take care of. With years of experience as a dog owner, I have developed a keen sense of how to provide a safe and nurturing environment for dogs of all ages and sizes. When you leave your dog with us, you can rest assured that they will be in good hands and receive all the love and care they deserve. Book your pup's stay today and give them a home away from home! Here's a sample schedule for caring for dogs during our dog boarding: 7:30 AM - Wake Up, Potty break, and food time! 8:30 AM - Free playtime in the yard and indoors 10:00 AM - Snack time and rest period 12:00 PM - Afternoon walk/playtime 1:30 PM - Free playtime in the yard 3:00 PM - Snack time and rest period 5:00 PM - Evening walk/playtime 6:30 PM - Dinner time and give any necessary medications 7:00 PM - Free playtime in the yard or indoors 8:00 PM - Wind down for the night and relax inside 9:00 PM - Final potty break before bed 10:00 PM - Lights out and good night! Of course, this schedule can be adjusted to meet the specific needs and routines of the dogs in your care. It's important to prioritize their physical exercise and mental stimulation, while also providing ample rest periods throughout the day. Additionally, feeding times and any medication schedules should be strictly adhered to. By following a consistent and structured schedule, we can help ensure that the dogs in your care feel safe, happy, and well-cared for during their stay. I have a fenced-in backyard and a large field for playing fetch in my development. I have a dog run that is cleaned regularly for potty breaks, and the main grass is reserved for play. We have one child who is 8 and very familiar with dogs as he has had 3 dogs since he was born. We recently lost our pug of 11 years and are looking forward to inviting new pup guests into our loving home. We are avid animal lovers and can be found regularly hanging out at local farms playing with goats, taking our youngest lab out for walks, frisbee, and hanging out at the river when the weather is warm. Hope to book with you soon :)
“Kate has taken care of my puppy twice now and she is amazing! She sent picture updates and he just looked so happy to be there. Kate is so sweet, responsive, and I'd trust her with my pup again!”
“Lisa took in our last minute request for Beau. Beau loved the meet and greet later that day. Then needed an extra hour in pick up and Lisa obliged. Amazing sitter than you so much”
“This was my dog’s first time staying with anyone other than family that is around him oftern! He had a great time! Maria was great at communicating and made sure i was updated regularly! I had a little separation anxiety but the open communication was definitely helpful and helped ease my anxiety. I would recommend Maria, she cared for my fur baby like one of her own. He had a great time and would recommend her as a sitter!”
About: I provide experienced, in-home pet care with a calm, structured environment — not a crowded kennel. I focus on personalized attention, routines, and making each dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable like they’re at home. I structure my daily and weekly schedule around pet care, allowing me to be present throughout the day. This ensures consistent routines, regular check-ins, and personalized attention for every pet. I care for pets using a structured, supervised setup. I have multiple indoor kennels for comfort and safety, a fully fenced backyard with outdoor kennels for supervised play and fresh air, and a climate-controlled shed for temperature-safe rest and rotation. Pets are never left unsupervised, and I rotate time between indoor comfort, outdoor activity, and rest to ensure safety, cleanliness, and individualized care.
About: Growing up we had dogs and lived them all. Got on my own I had a total of 3 dogs and thought I would not have a cat but did and would not have traded her for nothing. Did pet sitting for an older small dog and all went well. Have raised 2 dogs from puppies and one was easy and the other not. I just love animals large or small and right now I'm without any animals. So to be able to take care of and play with dogs of different sizes would be awesome. Dogs and cats are so unique and they make my day and make me smile. Currently I'm retired and take my walks around the pond and feed the ducks as well Currently have some activities at church on Monday morning. Otherwise a doctor's appointment. My time is pretty flexible except for Sunday for church, My animals are always treated like family. They are not meant to be tied up outside either. I feed them well and of course some treats. My philosophy is they can sleep anywhere they want, including my bed. There should be a bed for the dog or cat in more.than one room. Do my best to keep them safe from hazards just like a child.
“Staci is an excellent pet sitter that provides amazing care for our Maggie. Maggie has separation anxiety and needed to start developing social skills to help her with separation and just overall being around other people and pets. I am so happy that I found Staci, because after just the first time that she cared for Maggie, I can see how happy my furbaby gets when I even put her in the car seat. Maggie gets so excited because she knows we are on our way to a play date or overnight fun filled stay with Staci. I’ve observed how much calmer Maggie is and how much she loves to be at her sitters house. Thank you Staci for caring for our Maggie with such love and care. My family and I appreciate you so much. -Dina”
“Jessie and her husband were super nice and very accommodating. Both of my dogs are high energy breeds so I know they can be a lot for people, but Jessie took great care of them. They were nice and tired when they got home, which helped me out a lot. I greatly appreciate how responsive she is, which made scheduling a breeze. Jin can be picky with people but he warmed right up to the two of them. She did great with my dogs and made my day a lot easier--I'll definitely be scheduling with her again when I need an extra long break. 11/10 would recommend!”
About: I’ve had dozens of different animals since I was young. Ranging from farm animals, domestic animals, parrots and reptiles. Medication administration experience and bottle feeding as well. No care details are too extra or complicated. I am open to sitting any type of animal! I am home full time aside from errands with my little ones. I have a mini farm as I call it. Dogs, chickens, cats, ducks and more. I am outside majority of the day. We do love going to the park where my bulldog enjoys the dog area as well, so if you’re ok with it, trips to the park may be part of your pets stay! My farm is not completely fenced in, but I do have a fenced in area attached to the front of the house for the animals with plenty of space! I have a very long gravel driveway away from the main road. I have leads, collars, harnesses and cages if needed. I have baby gates in home if needed as well. My two dogs love everyone, they can just be overly friendly! Our oldest cat’s go outside a lot, so they are usually busy all day. Our youngest cat loves to play with everyone including dogs, but likes to stay inside. My female dog is not spayed, un neutered males will either be supervised or separated at night time.

“Samantha has been such a welcome addition to my puppies life. I work long hours and my boyfriend goes out of town frequently so find a flexible and kind dog walker was important to us. Samantha has been so great, she is very flexible and is dedicated to treating our dog well. She also gives a lot of great puppy advice and has been a huge help on getting our puppy to walk better.”
About: I have grown up with both large and small dogs, as well as cats. Animals have always held a special place in my life, and I understand that our animals are a true member of the family and should be treated as such. I have rescued two dogs of my own; we have learned to roll over, lay down, and spin around. With my years of experience and interaction with animals, I can guarantee that your pet will be in the best care. I currently work on an “as needed” basis so I have a very open day-to-day schedule, leaving me with the availability to spend any amount of time with the sweet dogs/cats in my care. I typically spend the weekends at home with a good book, hiking or playing disc golf in my free time, all of which include my dogs by my side. My dogs are obsessed with the water, so we are often found fishing or swimming at the river or lake when the weather is ideal. I will be caring for my dogs or others animals some of the time so if house-sitting, I might have to come and go here and there but your animals will always be top priority during that time. I will communicate with you before booking what my schedule will look like. I take my pups to the local parks or hiking trails at least a few times a week for new smells and extra activity. I am willing/able to take your dogs to new places if you would like, depending on how well they do in the car. I always dedicate at least 1-2 hours a day to my dog’s physical activity, so your pups will definitely have the opportunity to exercise and release all that energy, followed by an evening of many cuddles and sleeping in the bed. (if allowed)

“Miya is amazing! She enjoyed all our animals especially Hemingway! He loves her and pushed me out of the way to get to Miya! She helped me with some chores I’m unable to do and offered more help if I needed it! She is very pleasant and friendly! I would absolutely recommend Miya for pet walking or pet care! She is wonderful! Very kind and competent!”

About: Hi, I’m Maylan! I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether that’s energetic puppy care, patient senior support, or helping shy pets feel comfortable. I have experience with feeding routines, potty breaks, exercise, and keeping pets calm and comfortable while owners are away. As a pre-VMT student with a strong passion for animal care, I focus on safety, communication, and treating every pet like family. I have years of experience taking care of my own pets as well as neighbors, friends, and those I had the pleasure of meeting along the way. I am currently working part-time while also in school full time. My time for pets is fairly open and will try my best to find a time that works for all involved. In the clients home I follow each pets normal schedule to make everything run as smoothly as possible and keep them feeling safe and comfortable while their pawrent is away. I provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and yard clean up. For drop-in visits and overnight stays the same applies.
About: I think my personalities and empathy sets me apart from others!! I love to treat other the way that I want to be treated. Therefore, I’ll treat your pet with love and care! I’m home from college so I don’t have anything to do. So my schedule is very open and flexible! So I can bring my attention to give your pet love and care! I’m very respectful of others property and things. So if you allow me to come into your home you wouldn’t even know I came in there!

About: Hi! My name is Fernanda, and I provide drop-in visits and dog walking in the Lillington area. I've always had a deep love for animals — I'm a dog mom to three myself: Cobain, Moonie, and Jalapeno, a senior dog who showed up at our house last year and never left. Caring for three dogs with very different ages and personalities has taught me to read each dog individually rather than treat care as one-size-fits-all. I understand your pets are members of your family, and my goal is to give them that same love, attention, and safety while you're away. I'm home most of the day, so a visit from me isn't rushed or squeezed in — your dog gets real attention, not just a quick in-and-out. As a dedicated pet parent to my own three dogs, my daily life is entirely built around a structured animal care routine. Because of this, my schedule is highly predictable and reliable. I manage my time carefully to ensure that your pets receive punctual feeding, on-time medication, and consistent potty breaks without disruption. Whether you need early morning check-ins or late evening drop-ins, I am organized, timely, and fully committed to keeping your pet’s normal routine exactly on track. Safety is my absolute highest priority. Managing a diverse three-dog pack with completely different sizes, breeds, and personalities—including a delicate senior dog—means I am hyper-aware of animal body language, stress triggers, and environmental safety. I strictly follow all entry/exit protocols to prevent escape artists from slipping out the door. I am patient, gentle, and highly experienced in tracking slow movements, administering oral medications, and recognizing when a pet needs quiet rest.
About: I am a mother of two grown children. I have had rabbits and dogs as pets since I was a child. For the past 7 years my husband and I have rescued 8 cats and 4 bunnies. At this point we live in “their house.” I work remotely and have lots of love and care to offer. I work remotely and have a lot of flexibility. I am physically very active for an animal that needs lots of movement. I can essentially set my own schedule. I have a fenced yard and 1-2 bedrooms that can be utilized exclusively for a visiting pet. Local park within walking distance. Meticulous in housekeeping and prioritizing needs of animals.
About: PLEASE READ TO THE END, there are important scheduling details you don’t want to miss! I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages since I was a child, my family would always have 3 dogs and a cat at all times. I’m very familiar with dogs with environmental and food allergies as my own pup and one of my parents dogs have them. I am also experienced in administering medications to animals, and people(I’m a nurse during the week). I currently work full time on weekdays and I am free most weekends of the year. Weekday work schedule; Mon 9a-4:30p Tue 9a-4p Wed- Fri 7:30a-5:30p therefore I can only accept weekday requests outside of these times. My primary service area includes Fuquay-Varina and Holly Springs. I do accept clients outside of this area; however, a $10 travel fee will be added for locations more than 10 miles away, as they typically require at least 20 minutes of travel time. I always walk my dogs on a leash. I always cross the road if approaching another dog and/or person walking to make sure everyone is safe and respected.
“Renae was awesome with my 5 year old and took care of our 3 month old puppy! She sent pics of them playing and on walks and went above and beyond with our pupps. I would recommend Renae to anyone. Thank You Ranae”
“Jessie was great! She communicated daily and was very patient with one of my dogs who is shy. My dog came around on Jessie's third trip out and was fine from then on. We will definitely use Jessie again.”
About: Hello, I am Ang, a passionate and caring pet lover who has been a proud dog owner for over 15 years. With a spacious yard and plenty of play space, Our home is the perfect destination for dogs who need a comfortable and loving place to stay while their owners are away. We are a family that works from home so you can expect round the clock care for your pup. As a lover of travel, I understand how difficult it is to find quick, affordable care for my dogs. I am hoping to provide that service to those in the community that can relate. As a beginner Rover, I am excited to open my home to new furry friends and provide them with the same level of care and attention that I give to my own dogs. I am committed to making sure each dog in their care feels comfortable and happy, whether it's through long walks, extra snuggles, or just spending time together in the yard. I understand that every dog has unique needs and preferences, and I am dedicated to creating a tailored experience for each pup we take care of. With years of experience as a dog owner, I have developed a keen sense of how to provide a safe and nurturing environment for dogs of all ages and sizes. When you leave your dog with us, you can rest assured that they will be in good hands and receive all the love and care they deserve. Book your pup's stay today and give them a home away from home! Here's a sample schedule for caring for dogs during our dog boarding: 7:30 AM - Wake Up, Potty break, and food time! 8:30 AM - Free playtime in the yard and indoors 10:00 AM - Snack time and rest period 12:00 PM - Afternoon walk/playtime 1:30 PM - Free playtime in the yard 3:00 PM - Snack time and rest period 5:00 PM - Evening walk/playtime 6:30 PM - Dinner time and give any necessary medications 7:00 PM - Free playtime in the yard or indoors 8:00 PM - Wind down for the night and relax inside 9:00 PM - Final potty break before bed 10:00 PM - Lights out and good night! Of course, this schedule can be adjusted to meet the specific needs and routines of the dogs in your care. It's important to prioritize their physical exercise and mental stimulation, while also providing ample rest periods throughout the day. Additionally, feeding times and any medication schedules should be strictly adhered to. By following a consistent and structured schedule, we can help ensure that the dogs in your care feel safe, happy, and well-cared for during their stay. I have a fenced-in backyard and a large field for playing fetch in my development. I have a dog run that is cleaned regularly for potty breaks, and the main grass is reserved for play. We have one child who is 8 and very familiar with dogs as he has had 3 dogs since he was born. We recently lost our pug of 11 years and are looking forward to inviting new pup guests into our loving home. We are avid animal lovers and can be found regularly hanging out at local farms playing with goats, taking our youngest lab out for walks, frisbee, and hanging out at the river when the weather is warm. Hope to book with you soon :)
About: I've grown up around pets my whole life; dogs, cats, fish, even chickens! I can't imagine not being around them! Before I went to college I could dog sit for some of my mom coworkers during the summer. I would take them for walks, play with them, stay over night with them, anything I was asked of. I enjoy being around animals, they bring me joy and boost my serotonin. I promise I will love and care your pet(s) like they are my own! I am currently working a couple of odd jobs over the summer. I am a college athlete and have three volleyball camps to help run this summer. They are all out of town so I will not be available those weeks. I am also an Orientation Leader for my college. It's only for a week in June. It will take up most of the day but I do have times to come check on your animals! Other than that most of my days are free to have plenty of time to play and love on the babies! I am a very active person so I would love to take your dog(s) on walks. Maybe even take them to the park, if that is okay. If you have a yard I'll play with them there as well! I love getting their energy out and then just chilling and cuddling with them to make sure they feel loved.

“Lisa treated my dog, Diego, like one of her own! He spent the weekend at Lisa’s house and was spoiled! We knew Diego was being well cared for by Lisa and her sweet family, and that put our minds at ease. We will definitely be booking with Lisa in the future!”
“Christopher and Christina were wonderful to watch my dog Max for a full week. I had such peace of mind and received regular updates and photos of Max during that time. Can not recommend them enough!”
“Kristen and her family took wonderful care of our Dashi! She’s very responsive and provides frequent photos. Dashi was happy to see us, but we could tell that she was well cared for and content. She had a great time playing with Bentley and other friends!”
“Samantha did incredible with Kevin and made sure to keep me posted on his care! I work a lot of long shifts as a nurse and she did a great job making sure Kevin felt loved and played with during those days!! Kevin came home a happy camper. Definitely recommend her!!”
“Wow, what a great experience! Both Cassandra and her husband are great with dogs, their kids are great with dogs, and their dogs are great with dogs! I have a two-year-old lab who is still very much a puppy, and this wonderful family was able to handle her beautifully. They made her part of the family in every way. I'm so pleased.”
“Alison and her family were so great with our Sofie! They kept great care of her, keeping her on her schedule. Sofie also got to spend a lot of time outside which she loves. Alison was great about keeping me posted with how Sofie was doing and would send great pics. I appreciated her communication and I knew Sofie was being well taken care of!! Thank you again Alison, we will def be seeing you again soon! :)”
“She was an amazing dog sitter. She kept Sheba for 3 days and kept us informed the entire time. She let us know right away if anything was off and truly cared about Sheba’s wellbeing. She was also very kind and professional when we met. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her.”
“This was the first time our pup had stayed away from us and I was nervos but Maria kept me updated and sent multiple pictures throughout the day. She took great care of him and we will be using her from this point forward! :)”
“They were absolutely amazing! I got really good consistent updates on our fur babies and they had a great time! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a good environment to have their fur baby stay.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Caitlin! She was absolutely incredible—by far the best sitter we’ve had for Sully. She kept us constantly updated with pictures and messages, which made it so easy to relax and enjoy our own vacation knowing he was in such good hands. From the looks of it, Sully had his own vacation filled with fun, cuddles, and adventures. We’ll definitely be booking with Caitlin again—she’s a true gem!”
“A wonderful sitter! Kimberley did an excellent job keeping Yasuke. When we got home Yasuke was completely exhausted so I know she had a fantastic time with Kimberley! I would definitely recommend to others!”
“We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Dylan and Erica!! From the moment we dropped our dog, Dillon off, it felt much more like leaving him at a loving home rather than a boarding facility. He received special attention throughout his stay and was clearly treated like part of the family. They made sure he got plenty of walks and multiple trips to the dog park, which he loved. We also really appreciated the regular photo updates — it was reassuring to see how happy and comfortable he was every day. They have a great yard and tons of toys, so he was never bored. Honestly, by the time the stay was over, we weren’t even sure Dillon wanted to come home with us. That alone says everything. We couldn’t recommend them more and would absolutely trust them with our dog again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Emily did an amazing job taking care of my little fur baby. I could see the joy on my pup's face in the photo updates she sent me! I would recommend Emily to anyone. 10 out of 10!”
“It was such a breeze booking with Tania! She accommodated my last minute request, was quick to respond, communicative and my dog Max had a blast! He has been sleeping ever since i picked him up, which is how you know he had a great time. Thank you so much Tania!”
“Andrea did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Kona. We were away for 17 days and needed a loving family to taker her in rather than a kennel. Her previous reviews all lived up to their marks. Andrea is knowledgeable and attentive to dog personalities and was able to help our girl transition into a good routine with lots of love and exercise. Having our dog sleep in her own bed each night (with her blankie!) made it much easier to be away. I received pictures or text communication almost everyday. I couldn't have been happier and will definitely use Andrea's services again. I highly recommend.”
