“Cynthia was absolutely amazing with Eddie! She was very communicative and made me feel very at ease with the drop off and pick ups. I recommend her for boarding and I'll be booking again I'm the future!”

“Emily is awesome! She’s very knowledgeable of dogs and easy to work with. Coco was in heat for her boarding and Emily was very understanding and it wasn’t an issue for her stay.”

“Erin is so wonderful! Our boys have such a great time there. We had a family emergency that caused a last minute booking with no solid end date and she accepted it with no questions. She send lots of updates & photos. Having our boys with Erin and her family made us feel secure knowing they were having such fun.”

“Todd was exceptional in taking care of our Ava! He made sure she was comfortable in his home prior to the booking and answered any questions we had promptly. He is very communicative as well and provided us plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. We're very thankful for Todd and would recommend him to anyone seeking pet-boarding services.”

“Nothing but great things to say about Ashleigh. Communicative when inquiring about our pups. Sends pictures and does well with getting them acclimated to her home environment. Our dogs got along with Ashleigh’s fur babies and that was a bit of a concern at first as she has bigger pups. It was great that she had space outside for them to roam and play. Our dogs love to explore, run and play. I would definitely recommend Ashleigh to anyone and we will be utilizing her services again. Thanks Ashleigh!”

“Brandi was amazing! Our dogs stayed with her for a week and were very well taken care of. She kept us updated with pictures and a check in each day. In every picture, our dogs looked so happy! Brandi handled our dog’s medication and their little quirks with ease. Drop off and pick up were easy. She really went above and beyond!”

“Our Shepherd mix was right at home with Hailey and her family. He got 24/7 care, family love and attention. Hailey was easy to communicate with and worked with our special food mix that needed to be refrigerated. Great property to roam in the yard and lots of area to run and play. We will definitely bring our dog back.”

About: Ive been taking care of animals such as dogs, cats, and even critters since I was just a little kid up until now at 19 years old. Ive dedicated most of my life and time to take care of animals all over whether its just my neighbors or a homeless critter off the streets to provide quality care and affection since every animal is deserving of it even those who struggle with health, behavior health, ptsd because they are especially deserving of adequate care and love! I would be honored to watch over your loved one, in return it helps me with my degree for college working in animal behavioral health, aswell as animal health in general. Im also a big runner/walker and average 20,000 steps every day so if your critter is adventurous or even a couch potato im hands on with the experience! I look forward to working with you! 😊 Im currently disabled so Im not working at all aside from doing online college from home. Every day I spend some time getting out of the house while doing work from my phone to average my daily activity. I spend a lot of time volunteering for the community at AA meetings, feeding the homeless, animal homelessness, food banks, etc to help around the neighborhood. Im moving to ohio to finish my treatment at the cleveland clinic organ transplant center in order to do that I need to be able to make income and what better way to do that then working with critters ive loved my whole life! I have a gated community inside where my apartment sits just close to Triangle Center. It would be very difficult for any animal to get loose because the fences are metal and taller than a 6ft man to prevent any break ins or even break outs in your case! My home is inspected every other month to make sure the environment is healthy and hazardous free, lots of free space and importantly scent, and smoke free! I suffer from some health issues aswell as family so its important there isn't much fragrance in the home, aswell as it being kept clean and in shape for easy access around the house and preventing sickness. Medicine is stored and locked away aswell as any hazardous objects to prevent accidents from occurring.
“I could not have asked for a better place to leave our baby. Our plans fell through last minute, and we found Mary two days before our trip. This was the first time leaving Liberace for soo long, and they made us feel completly at ease. Mary and her husband Randy were able to take Liberace for the whole 9 days. After meeting them once I knew they were the perfect fit...they are definitely animal lovers, with plenty of indoor/outdoor options for the dogs. We loved leaving Liberace in the relaxing country setting with plently of places to run and friends to play with. They were very flexible with drop off and pick up times. They kept us updated with pictures and videos almost daily while we were away. I highly reccomend them, and will ABSOLUTELY use Mary and Randy again for future sitting needs.”

“Tony did an excellent job taking care of Benny. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of his services. He kept us well informed with messages photos and videos. I feel very comfortable leaving Benny with him and definitely will try multiple return visits.”

“Brianna was absolutely amazing! We reached out with a last-minute request to board Pinot for the weekend, and she was incredibly responsive and accommodating from the start. She sent us pictures and updates throughout his stay, which made us feel completely at ease knowing he was happy and having a great time. One of the best parts was that Pinot got to spend the weekend playing with other dogs! He’s a very active, social dog, so having plenty of playtime and friends around was perfect for him. He came home happy and sleepy! We’re so grateful Brianna was able to take such great care of him on short notice and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Robert was great with my dogs. They had a nice place to sleep and play. I think they thought they were on vacation. He was very thoughtful about making the dogs feel at home. Will definitely bring them back again!”

“Raegan is wonderful! She has an extensive knowledge of animals and an obvious love for them. She gave me such peace of mind while my puppy was in her care. Definitely will use her again!”

“Kimberley and her family (two and four legged both) loved on my dog, Charlie, for 5 days. She had good attention to detail, noting how Charlie was interacting with everyone. Charlie came home nice and tired and in really good shape emotionally. Highly recommend.”

“Larissa was the perfect person to take care of my dog. She sent me updates and photos throughout the entire time. I felt assured that my dog Mac was in good hands and at no point was worried. I’d happily leave my pup with Larissa again!”

“Kris is a good sitter. He comes on schedule, communicates well, and treats your home and pets with the care they deserve. He has stepped up for me on short notice, and always does a good job.”


“Veronica took very good care of my two cats. I loved that she sent pictures of them every day. The litter boxes were clean and she kept the floor around them swept and clean. I will definitely continue to ask her to care for my babies.”

“This was the second time Gloria stayed at our house. I felt our beloved cat, BJ, was in excellent hands with Gloria. When we returned, the house was just as we left it, litter boxes scooped, and BJ was relaxed, fed, and happy (the most important thing)! It was as though we had never left! We felt bad because, while we were gone, our TV died and our air conditioning wasn't working, but Gloria took it in stride. We and BJ hope Gloria will house/cat-sit again for us in the future (TV and heat pump have both been replaced!). Thank you, Gloria.”


About: I’ve owned many cats and have also been a trusted friend caring for other people’s cats while they’re away.

Meals are at the same time every day and of course lots of conversation, love and cuddles.
“Angel was a perfect pet walker! Great communication too. I was traveling to Lincoln City from California with my 6 month old puppy. Since the hotel didn't allow the pups to be left in the room at all, it was great to have someone lined up during my vacation to care for her while I visited places that didn't allow dogs (Indoor seating restaurants and the casino). I'll will use her service again next time I'm in town.”

“Ally was awesome! She was super responsive and timely in all communication and interactions. She cared so well for our pup and was super professional throughout the whole process.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since elementary school. Training horses and dogs has been my passion. Understanding dogs instincts and pack language helps me better serve their unique needs and personalities. My 35 years of animal care encompasses dog sitting, training, flying cross country on cabin with pup, breeding, and rearing physically and emotionally solid pups. I’ve ventured with my 4-legged buddies on hikes, walks, beach trips, long car drives, hotel stays, retirement homes, schools, river floats, horse rides, ranch work, and river walks. Living in the beautiful PNW there’s always fun to have with our pooches! I’m a work at home mom with four children and a beautiful tribe of animal, loving people. Kids and animals have routines to thrive. There’s always someone home to be with the dogs so no fur babe left behind on our watch. We go places the dogs can ride with us. Exploring the logging roads and nature walks are everyone’s favorite. Fenced yard and doggo doors allow for in and out as they please while at home. Routine starts with breakfast. Then it’s playtime with the kids while farm chores take place. If your dog eats 3x a day we’ll do lunch, more playtime, rest time since this is equally as important. Mental stimulation to stay sharp means using snuffle rugs, treat dispensers, hand feeding meals while reinforcing manners and obedience. My kids have a schedule and boundaries as do the animals giving everyone peace of mind.

“This is my first time using Rover, and I am a first time dog owner. I needed to schedule something very last minute and Emily was very flexible working with me and Daisy. She did a great job and kept in contact about her stay. She is very friendly and is very well experienced in this business.”

“I can’t thank Cynthia enough for the exceptional care she took of our pups on very short notice. Great communication and updates, and they had a blast. I highly recommend working with her!”

“Mikki was absolutely great! She took the time to have a few meet ups with our puppy to make sure everyone got along well, and she had the patience of a saint for dealing with a puppy with all her quirks. We will definitely be reaching out and booking again for future sitting needs.”

About: Military Veteran | Lifelong Animal Lover Hello! My name is Kortni, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Since the age of 8, I’ve had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals—from horses and livestock to dogs, cats, and even fish. My experience comes from both personal ownership and working alongside professional trainers, always with the goal of providing well-rounded, compassionate care. During my time in the military, I was fortunate to have a few incredible opportunities to work with military working dogs—an experience that deepened my respect for animal intelligence, discipline, and emotional needs. Now that I’ve recently transitioned out of the military, I’m taking time to reconnect with the things I love most: animals, nature, and a slower pace of life. That also means I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to your pet’s unique needs—whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, playtime, or sticking to a specific routine. This is my passion, and what I do for work. I currently have an 8-year-old Australian Shepherd at home who’s the biggest spoiled lap dog you’ll ever meet. I understand how much our pets mean to us, and I treat every animal in my care like one of my own—with love, patience, and attention to detail. Special diet? Specific routine? Just let me know—I’m happy to accommodate. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for while you're away. You can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet!

My dogs live with my parents and we have a fenced in yard and a space in our house just for the dogs. I live by myself though if your dog isn’t comfortable around other animals!

About: Certified dog trainer and behaviorist. Pet CPR certified Medication dispensing knowledge Grooming knowledge I own a 2 year old Goldendoodle, Winnie. I raised her while going to school for my certification from 12 weeks old. I practice positive reinforcement with balanced training. We work hard and play harder, and love an active lifestyle. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I intentionally keep my schedule open so I can provide consistent, attentive care. I enjoy staying busy and working with animals daily. Available 7 days a week, typically 9am–9pm. Weekend availability varies based on client needs. Animals in my care are treated like family, but with structure. I provide clear boundaries, routine, and guidance so pets feel secure and understood. Pets are given time to play, eat, potty, train, and rest. I incorporate basic manners and calm behavior into daily care so they’re not just being watched—they’re learning. I have a young child in the home, so I need to know ahead of time if a pet is sensitive or reactive around children. Requirements: Up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies) No intact dogs over 2 years old Must be safe to handle in a home environment I also use long leads when appropriate to safely allow freedom while maintaining control, which is helpful for recall and behavior work.

“Emily is awesome! She’s very knowledgeable of dogs and easy to work with. Coco was in heat for her boarding and Emily was very understanding and it wasn’t an issue for her stay.”

“Erin is so wonderful! Our boys have such a great time there. We had a family emergency that caused a last minute booking with no solid end date and she accepted it with no questions. She send lots of updates & photos. Having our boys with Erin and her family made us feel secure knowing they were having such fun.”

“Todd was exceptional in taking care of our Ava! He made sure she was comfortable in his home prior to the booking and answered any questions we had promptly. He is very communicative as well and provided us plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. We're very thankful for Todd and would recommend him to anyone seeking pet-boarding services.”

“Nothing but great things to say about Ashleigh. Communicative when inquiring about our pups. Sends pictures and does well with getting them acclimated to her home environment. Our dogs got along with Ashleigh’s fur babies and that was a bit of a concern at first as she has bigger pups. It was great that she had space outside for them to roam and play. Our dogs love to explore, run and play. I would definitely recommend Ashleigh to anyone and we will be utilizing her services again. Thanks Ashleigh!”

“Brandi was amazing! Our dogs stayed with her for a week and were very well taken care of. She kept us updated with pictures and a check in each day. In every picture, our dogs looked so happy! Brandi handled our dog’s medication and their little quirks with ease. Drop off and pick up were easy. She really went above and beyond!”

“Our Shepherd mix was right at home with Hailey and her family. He got 24/7 care, family love and attention. Hailey was easy to communicate with and worked with our special food mix that needed to be refrigerated. Great property to roam in the yard and lots of area to run and play. We will definitely bring our dog back.”

About: Ive been taking care of animals such as dogs, cats, and even critters since I was just a little kid up until now at 19 years old. Ive dedicated most of my life and time to take care of animals all over whether its just my neighbors or a homeless critter off the streets to provide quality care and affection since every animal is deserving of it even those who struggle with health, behavior health, ptsd because they are especially deserving of adequate care and love! I would be honored to watch over your loved one, in return it helps me with my degree for college working in animal behavioral health, aswell as animal health in general. Im also a big runner/walker and average 20,000 steps every day so if your critter is adventurous or even a couch potato im hands on with the experience! I look forward to working with you! 😊 Im currently disabled so Im not working at all aside from doing online college from home. Every day I spend some time getting out of the house while doing work from my phone to average my daily activity. I spend a lot of time volunteering for the community at AA meetings, feeding the homeless, animal homelessness, food banks, etc to help around the neighborhood. Im moving to ohio to finish my treatment at the cleveland clinic organ transplant center in order to do that I need to be able to make income and what better way to do that then working with critters ive loved my whole life! I have a gated community inside where my apartment sits just close to Triangle Center. It would be very difficult for any animal to get loose because the fences are metal and taller than a 6ft man to prevent any break ins or even break outs in your case! My home is inspected every other month to make sure the environment is healthy and hazardous free, lots of free space and importantly scent, and smoke free! I suffer from some health issues aswell as family so its important there isn't much fragrance in the home, aswell as it being kept clean and in shape for easy access around the house and preventing sickness. Medicine is stored and locked away aswell as any hazardous objects to prevent accidents from occurring.
“I could not have asked for a better place to leave our baby. Our plans fell through last minute, and we found Mary two days before our trip. This was the first time leaving Liberace for soo long, and they made us feel completly at ease. Mary and her husband Randy were able to take Liberace for the whole 9 days. After meeting them once I knew they were the perfect fit...they are definitely animal lovers, with plenty of indoor/outdoor options for the dogs. We loved leaving Liberace in the relaxing country setting with plently of places to run and friends to play with. They were very flexible with drop off and pick up times. They kept us updated with pictures and videos almost daily while we were away. I highly reccomend them, and will ABSOLUTELY use Mary and Randy again for future sitting needs.”

“Tony did an excellent job taking care of Benny. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of his services. He kept us well informed with messages photos and videos. I feel very comfortable leaving Benny with him and definitely will try multiple return visits.”

“Brianna was absolutely amazing! We reached out with a last-minute request to board Pinot for the weekend, and she was incredibly responsive and accommodating from the start. She sent us pictures and updates throughout his stay, which made us feel completely at ease knowing he was happy and having a great time. One of the best parts was that Pinot got to spend the weekend playing with other dogs! He’s a very active, social dog, so having plenty of playtime and friends around was perfect for him. He came home happy and sleepy! We’re so grateful Brianna was able to take such great care of him on short notice and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Robert was great with my dogs. They had a nice place to sleep and play. I think they thought they were on vacation. He was very thoughtful about making the dogs feel at home. Will definitely bring them back again!”

“Raegan is wonderful! She has an extensive knowledge of animals and an obvious love for them. She gave me such peace of mind while my puppy was in her care. Definitely will use her again!”

“Larissa was the perfect person to take care of my dog. She sent me updates and photos throughout the entire time. I felt assured that my dog Mac was in good hands and at no point was worried. I’d happily leave my pup with Larissa again!”


“My Pitt and chihuahua seemed in high spirits coming home from their stay with Shadie. She updated me with messages and photos on a last minute overnight stay, it was perfect. Definitely will return and would recommend to any friend!”

“Kelsey made this a great experience. It’s the first time I’d left my old man with someone, and Kelsey made that so much easier with photos and updates along the way. I would highly recommend her, we will definitely reach out to her if we are in the area again.”

“The best! They took such good care of Sally and were great communicators. I got lots of pics of my girl while I was away 😊 She had so much fun playing in their yard with their dogs.”
