“Kaitlyn did a great job keeping our pups safe and happy while we traveled out of town for an extended vacation. This was our first time using this service, and she made the extra effort of keeping in touch throughout our trip to let us know how our pups were doing.”

“Brittni went beyond my expectations when caring for my precious Simon! She is a very loving, dependable caregiver and provided regular daily feedback on his stay. I highly recommend her and hope to be able to book with her again in the future.”

“Fifth time client and as always, a great experience. Our dogs love Chelsea and her family. Lots of snuggles and playtime and love. She is our go to and #1 choice any time we are headed out of town.”

“Rachel and Daniel were fabulous! My dogs had a great time! Honestly, I was afraid they wouldn’t wanna come back home with me lol. I’ve got future stays booked already:)”

“10/10 Jamie was AMAZING from booking to pickup! She was gracious through our need to book last minute (which nobody enjoys having to rush to find a dog sitter, so this was greatly appreciated). She took time to ask questions and fill us in on their process of handling a guest dog in their home. Her home is beautiful (I said I wanted to take his place being boarded there lol), it looks like actual doggy heaven. She sent videos and pictures that made our hearts so happy while out of town, and we could visually see how great she treated our little guy (who can be difficult to say the least). They treated our dog as if he were a part of their family in a short period of time and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! Oh and a bonus was after we picked our little guy up he behaved SO WELL, like way better than usual…..I think he was missing Jamie, her family, and her dog ❤️ You cannot go wrong with booking with her!”

“Jennifer is top notch! My dogs were picked up happy and healthy! She took them on several walks and kept us updated with pictures. She is definitely dependable and trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate to leave them there again! Thanks Jennifer!”

“Keely took great care of my dog. She sent me pictures and updates throughout my vacation which kept me at ease since this was my first time boarding. Looking forward to working with her in the future!”

“Katherine was an amazing sitter! She made sure to send updates on how my cat was doing as well as pictures and she responded very quickly if I had any questions. Will definitely be rebooking !”

“Maya took the very best care of our pups. She helped us out last minute and treated our dogs like they were her own. They had a great time and we got lots of updates and pictures throughout their stay. Highly recommend.”

“Ambri had a wonderful time staying with Jeanne. The pictures that she (Jeanne) sent me looked as if Ambri was having a better time on vacation than I was. It was very good to get them as I was hoping my little pup-dog was not sad and missing us. She is a very much a people dog, so Jeanne was able to be her "people" for a week. I know she will be excited to return for another vacation in the future.”


“Ronda is an amazing dog sitter!! She was friendly with us as well as the dog. I felt confident after the play meet because she let our good dog kairi run around in every room and outside. The house was very clean, freshly scented and safe for dogs. We were sent pictures everyday without asking or bothering her. We had no complaints for a whole 9 days on vacation to California. We will always contact her for future dog sitting no matter the duration. We trust her and she’s a good, nice, modern, casual, and sweet person. Easy to talk with and recommend her for sure upon being strangers. Ronda watched our pitbull with confidence with all the true information about Kairi. It worked out. Thank you so much!!”

“Took our pup in overnight, with a couple hours notice. He came home very happy and well cared for. Her pack was very accepting of Pete so your dogo will have plenty of great company!”

“Our 11 month old pup stayed with Brandon this past weekend and he did an amazing job! He sent text/photo updates showing what a great time she was having. Our pup became best buds with his cat, playing and cuddling. You can really tell how much he loves dogs. We highly recommend Brandon!”

“Maria was amazing! She came through for us at the very last minute and literally saved our vacation. She treated our sweet senior dog like family and that’s all I could ask for ! So grateful for her !”

“Awesome! She was accommodating, pleasant to work with and I felt confidant that my pup was well taken care of. Gina stayed in communication during my time away and was responsive to my texts and questions. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”

“My dog loves staying with Debbie! This is the 2nd time I’ve booked with her and this was a long boarding for 10 days. I had no worries while I was gone. Daily updates, pictures and videos.”

About: Hello! I currently work at a dog boarding and daycare center. I absolutely love taking care of the dogs daily. I’ve gained tons of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a busy boarding and daycare setting, providing attentive, compassionate care to ensure each dog felt safe and comfortable. As well as feeding, exercise, playtime, and basic health monitoring while supervising group interactions to encourage positive behavior and prevent conflicts. I’ve developed strong skills in handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities while maintaining a clean, organized, and stress-free environment 🐾🩷 Pet care is a central part of my daily schedule through my work at a dog boarding and daycare center. Each day involves hands-on responsibilities such as feeding, exercising, supervising playgroups, monitoring behavior and health, and maintaining clean and safe environments for the dogs in my care. Because my workday is structured around consistent routines and animal needs, I am accustomed to prioritizing timely care, attention, and safety. This experience allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my schedule while remaining reliable, attentive, and responsive to each dog’s individual needs. When walking pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and enjoyment at all times. I ensure each walk is suited to the dog’s age, energy level, and temperament, providing appropriate exercise while maintaining control and awareness of surroundings. I pay close attention to behavior, leash manners, and potential hazards, and I follow any specific instructions regarding routes, pacing, or handling. Throughout the walk, I offer positive reinforcement, patience, and attentive care to ensure each pet feels secure, stimulated, and well cared for.
About: Pets are family, and they deserve to be treated like family. I have doggy sat for a family friend for 3yrs, Zoe, and Zarley. They go out 4 to 5 times a day, they get treats for going boo boo outside. We run around the apartment and play as much as my bones will let me. I am able to brush the furbabies every day, and multiple times a day if needed. I do talk to them like they can answer me…..😂😂. Animals understand more than we think they do. I love animals so much. I wish I could get one for me. But at this time, I am unable to afford one. I will not get any animal that I know I can’t pay for what they need. I was working up until 09/2025. I got hurt at work, and I’m unable to return. I am available 24/7 now. I have plenty of time to give ALL of my time to furbabies now. I have a full time job working midnights. I get off at 7am, but don’t usually go to sleep till around 10am. I do not work Friday nights. My part time job is just Mon., we’d., and Fri, from 9am to 1pm. I have every other weekend off. I always put fur babies first in my home. I play with them as often as I can. They are allowed on the furniture and bed. No matter what I am doing, I will stop to take them out, or play with them. I DO NOT give for babies ppl food, their little digestive system mite not be able to handle it. If there is something extra that you say they need, and you don’t have, I will buy it for them. I remove any and everything off the floors, so they cannot get in it. If there is a special diet that they have, I will just need written instructions on how to prepare it.

About: I have been a certified dog trainer for 15 years, a boarder/sitter for 10 years, and a foster for 2. I do what I love! Pups are my full-time job so fitting them into my lifestyle is never inconvenient. Training, boarding, daytime care, or I can host your pet's birthday party with a cake or pupcakes, decorations, and fun games! All pets that come to my home are treated like my own. We have 2 acres for plenty of play space, walks, runs, and exploring. I am a dog foster and often have dogs in my home, but am able to also have your pet/pets as the only ones if preferred!
“Honestly I couldn't ask for more. My pup came from a shelter with an unclear history. I found a sitter who is hitting every goal I looked for. She truly cares for my girl and I couldn't ask for more.”

About: Hi, I’m Jamie, and I’m thrilled to bring my love for animals and my 18 years of experience as a Registered Nurse to the world of pet care. I know that your pets are more than just animals—they’re family. That’s why I offer personalized pet boarding and professional dog walking services tailored to meet the unique needs of each furry friend. I take a very limited number of animals at one time so that your Furry family member will become a member of our family while they’re here! As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the importance of trust and reliability when it comes to caring for your pets! Whether it’s a cozy staycation while you’re away or a fun-filled walk to keep them active, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. ** at this time I cannot accept intact male dogs** thank you for your understanding! I work part time, I am home the majority of most days so chances are I will have availability for you! I am flexible with days and times! Last minute plans? No problem! I have a large fenced in 1/2 acre partially wooded dog run. I have multiple sized crates and smaller fenced in areas as well with plenty of space for you pooch!
About: Hi everyone! Our names are Karen and Chad and we’ve always had a love for dogs since childhood. The thought of caring or rescuing a dog has always been top of our minds. When we got married, we adopted a greyhound racer. We had him for 7 years and lost him unfortunately due to cancer. Since we lost him, we’ve wanted to continue helping/caring for dogs and can’t think of a better way then helping others with their fur animals. We know the working world doesn’t always accommodate balancing out caring for our fur friends and work and would love to help with that! Please chose us to care for your fur friends whether it’s a walk or a overnight stay in our home! We will treat them with the utmost love and care! We are available daily as Chad stays at home weekly. Karen is available to help out on weekends. Please let us know how we can help! We have a nice back yard but do not currently have a fence (at this time). We can walk the dogs in our backyard with a leash and or take them to nearby parks. We do have a dog bed and dog water/food bowels with plenty of space in our 2200 sq.ft home.
About: I’ve been around all animals my whole life, My friends and family have always called me an animal whisperer because I’ve never met an animal that didn’t like me. I’m skilled in reading body language and respecting animals so they feel comfortable with me. I’m a customer service manager full time all week but will be available all weekend at all hours of the day and night so you can be free on weekends. I’m respectful of home I come to and if needed to come to mine I have a service animal that is good with all dogs but can be put away if needed.
“Gina and her husband are very nice and accommodating. I did not worry about my little guy while I was at work. They have a beautiful clean home with a large yard. Their 2 ittle dogs are very friendly and play well. I highly recommend whether you are boarding or using as daycare. Thank you so much Gina.”

“Brandon is terrific! He is a dog and human whisperer alike, putting us and our dog at ease. Cleo was able to relax and join the pack allowing us to breathe a sigh of relief. We will be using his boarding services again for sure.”

“Maya did a great job with Merlin. Not only did she take good care of him but gave him some much needed play time. She even found some new food for him that he loves. Maya went above and beyond.”

“What an amazing young lady! Positive, concerned, kind and gentle! Willing to go the extra mile for Murray and us! She listened to us, gave us suggestions…this was our first time leaving Murray with anyone! Keely provided pictures of Murray and asked great questions the entire time she had Mur! Keely agreed to a meet and greet before her time with Murray and it went superbly well. She got down on her knees and talked to Murray. She gave him time to adjust to her and on our designated day Mur walked right up to her and gave her a kiss! It was great! It did our hearts gud! Mur is a senior dog and we are thankful to have found Keely:) She is and will be our go to person from now on!”

About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.

“Amanda, Aaron, and their precious pups are wonderful! ???? Our 12 week old little girly has been socialized with all ages, shapes, and sizes of people, but not with other furry friends! Well, She had a daycare day today! She was nervous and shy at first, but then couldn’t care less about me when I came to pick her up!??♀️She loved playing and hanging out with new friends! Amanda updated me and sent me photos throughout the day! They have their house set up so they can separate the dogs if need be, and she took them out one at a time so as not to have them wrestling around in the wet mud, etc. I appreciate that! ☺️ I can tell Amanda and Aaron love dogs- we are so thankful! ?????”
“Zarina took very good care of our fur babies. Even though my pups are painfully shy, she did well with them. I appreciate her and I will ask her to watch our pups again when in town in November.”

About: I currently have a 4 year old mini Australian shepherd. My experience includes watching a puppy overnight, helping train a deaf dog, and taking neighbors dogs on walks. I am a teacher so I am available all of June-August to provide all day care for dogs or just walk dogs during the day. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of affection. I follow each dog’s routine and make sure they feel happy and relaxed while they’re away from home.

About: I always bring a treat depending on the pups diet. There will always be plenty of kisses given. I like to help with training. I can have Spot sitting on command after 30 minutes. Playing indoor or outdoors is my favorite thing to do. Especially hide and seek or playing in the pool. I’m good at observing dogs habits to understand what they do and don’t like. I volunteer with a local rescue and have helped with fostering. I am more than happy to help with an special needs and understand that they are all different. I enjoy helping animals, if I see them scratching their ears... I’ll gladly scratch them for them. I would feel bad not helping them out. I have experience watching deaf, blind, reactive/temperamental dogs. I am confident in working with them. My 2 dogs are spoiled rotten and socialized. They love meeting new pups. They sleep with me each night. I do respect owners wishes, if you do not want them on furniture. I will gladly abide. I have a client that has a list of things her dogs can and cannot eat. I take the owners wishes seriously. I’m very easy going and thrive on direct communication.
About: I have always had pets . I grew up helping my mother groom and take care of dogs. I would do anything for an animal. I am available all 24/7 everyday. I am willing to work any day of the week. I am availability because this is my only job, and I am passionate. I have been lucky enough to be raised with dogs my entire life. My family were breeders for standard poodles at one point, which was amazing to watch and learn about. I am no stranger to special needs, administering meds, able to provide short term care until help arrives. I love all dog breeds equally and will treat your dog like my own. This is my passion. I have 2 guest rooms that can be turned into private doggo apartments. If your pets need exercise I can provide. If they need relaxation, I love cuddles on the couch. We have crates of all sizes, beds for any size dog, dog gates for stairs, enough rooms to spread out and separate if needed, and live minutes away from a fenced in dog park. We live 3 minutes from 2 vet clinics and we use them for our own dogs. We have security cameras in the house with 2 way speakers if we need to step out for any reason. Please let us know about your dogs temperament with other dogs ahead of time. If your dog has special needs or quirks around certain people. We are happy to share our dogs food but would prefer food is delivered with the dog for stays. We are used to dogs that have a tendency to run if given the chance but appreciate heads up so we can be extra attentive.

“Kaitlyn did a great job keeping our pups safe and happy while we traveled out of town for an extended vacation. This was our first time using this service, and she made the extra effort of keeping in touch throughout our trip to let us know how our pups were doing.”

“Brittni went beyond my expectations when caring for my precious Simon! She is a very loving, dependable caregiver and provided regular daily feedback on his stay. I highly recommend her and hope to be able to book with her again in the future.”

“Fifth time client and as always, a great experience. Our dogs love Chelsea and her family. Lots of snuggles and playtime and love. She is our go to and #1 choice any time we are headed out of town.”

“Rachel and Daniel were fabulous! My dogs had a great time! Honestly, I was afraid they wouldn’t wanna come back home with me lol. I’ve got future stays booked already:)”

“10/10 Jamie was AMAZING from booking to pickup! She was gracious through our need to book last minute (which nobody enjoys having to rush to find a dog sitter, so this was greatly appreciated). She took time to ask questions and fill us in on their process of handling a guest dog in their home. Her home is beautiful (I said I wanted to take his place being boarded there lol), it looks like actual doggy heaven. She sent videos and pictures that made our hearts so happy while out of town, and we could visually see how great she treated our little guy (who can be difficult to say the least). They treated our dog as if he were a part of their family in a short period of time and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! Oh and a bonus was after we picked our little guy up he behaved SO WELL, like way better than usual…..I think he was missing Jamie, her family, and her dog ❤️ You cannot go wrong with booking with her!”

“Jennifer is top notch! My dogs were picked up happy and healthy! She took them on several walks and kept us updated with pictures. She is definitely dependable and trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate to leave them there again! Thanks Jennifer!”

“Keely took great care of my dog. She sent me pictures and updates throughout my vacation which kept me at ease since this was my first time boarding. Looking forward to working with her in the future!”

“Katherine was an amazing sitter! She made sure to send updates on how my cat was doing as well as pictures and she responded very quickly if I had any questions. Will definitely be rebooking !”

“Maya took the very best care of our pups. She helped us out last minute and treated our dogs like they were her own. They had a great time and we got lots of updates and pictures throughout their stay. Highly recommend.”

“Ambri had a wonderful time staying with Jeanne. The pictures that she (Jeanne) sent me looked as if Ambri was having a better time on vacation than I was. It was very good to get them as I was hoping my little pup-dog was not sad and missing us. She is a very much a people dog, so Jeanne was able to be her "people" for a week. I know she will be excited to return for another vacation in the future.”


“Ronda is an amazing dog sitter!! She was friendly with us as well as the dog. I felt confident after the play meet because she let our good dog kairi run around in every room and outside. The house was very clean, freshly scented and safe for dogs. We were sent pictures everyday without asking or bothering her. We had no complaints for a whole 9 days on vacation to California. We will always contact her for future dog sitting no matter the duration. We trust her and she’s a good, nice, modern, casual, and sweet person. Easy to talk with and recommend her for sure upon being strangers. Ronda watched our pitbull with confidence with all the true information about Kairi. It worked out. Thank you so much!!”

“Took our pup in overnight, with a couple hours notice. He came home very happy and well cared for. Her pack was very accepting of Pete so your dogo will have plenty of great company!”

“Our 11 month old pup stayed with Brandon this past weekend and he did an amazing job! He sent text/photo updates showing what a great time she was having. Our pup became best buds with his cat, playing and cuddling. You can really tell how much he loves dogs. We highly recommend Brandon!”

“Maria was amazing! She came through for us at the very last minute and literally saved our vacation. She treated our sweet senior dog like family and that’s all I could ask for ! So grateful for her !”

“Awesome! She was accommodating, pleasant to work with and I felt confidant that my pup was well taken care of. Gina stayed in communication during my time away and was responsive to my texts and questions. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”

“Thank you very much for everything towards my dog. You are a very good caregiver. My dog was very happy. She keeps you in communication and sends you photos every day.🤗”
