“Our dog took an immediate liking Merri Anne. Merri Anne was quick to respond to any messages I sent. She sent a couple of photos which delighted us. Our dog seemed happy when she came home.”

“We were very happy to have Renae watch our pup and love on him. We really relaxed on our vacation knowing that Buddy was in good hands. We will definitely have Renae watch our Buddy in the future.”

“Nathan was very responsive to our questions and sent us pics of our dog enjoying his stay and getting lots of exercise. We had some friends drop our dog off and we heard that he was greeted warmly and given lots of attention on arrival. Exactly the sort of welcome you hope for when you trust your pet to someone else's care.”


“I selected Adam to watch our energetic goldendoodle puppy over a long weekend because of his stellar reviews, and I was not disappointed! Adam was flexible, responsive, and very communicative. We got picture updates and we had no concerns about our pup's well being. Adam's dogs did a great job playing patiently with an energetic pup. I would highly, highly recommend Adam and plan on booking him again.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 12, it started with my sister's dog and I've slowly expanded to neighbors and friends loving pets! Im good with knowing their body language so I know how to react appropriately. Im used to long walks with dogs. I make sure the dog is happy. Im a part time photographer so I'm almost always home! I do school online so I won't be gone during the day. I have time for 2-3 walks a day, lots of play time. I have a fenced yard to let them out if it's an emergency or if they just want to run. I take dogs on 2-3 walks a day depending on what the dog wants. I let dogs sleep with me in my bed, I love cuddling on the couch as well. I love playing tug of war. If the dog gets messy while at my house I will give them a bath. If brushing is part of their routine I will gladly do that! I love playing with pets! They will have all my attention unless they want to be left alone.
“We would definitely recommend Nicole, and use her services again. It looks that Rocket our 3 month old golden retriever had a good time. She would respond immediately to my messages and answer my questions plus her place looks adécuate for pets. Thank you Nicole.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I absolutely love animals especially dogs. I’ve trained all my personal dogs with basic commands. Let’s talk I’m currently retired and spend all day at home in the house and in my yard. My dogs go outside every hour for potty and play every hour unless I’m gone. I take my girls out first thing in the morning I walk out behind garage near orchard to let them go potty. They eat and then play and go back outside with me only as I don’t have fenced yard and want to be sure they go out back. They are placed in crate when I am not home for their safety and typically sleep there during the night or in bed with me. They go outside every hour to potty and run.
About: I love my little doggie and I’ll love on yours like they’re mine! I can snuggle with your dog if that’s their thing, or take them on walks around my neighborhood! I have some experience with special needs as my first rescue doggie was one-eyed and then had to have his remaining eye removed due to glaucoma and cataracts. I have experience doing eye drops and pet meds, as well as accommodating dogs with limited vision. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos as I know I love those updates when I’m away. Dogs are family and I’ll take great care of yours! Don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions. I’m currently working part time, so I will have flexibility in caring for your dog and can talk with you to learn more about your dog’s typical schedule. I have a backyard that works well for small dogs and I am happy to do walks if that’s what your dog needs! I do have two kids who are great and very gentle with our special needs dog.

“Poor David! And poor Ziggy! Our pup got sick over the weekend. (Not the fault of the family; he only ate what we sent.)

Thirty percent is the maximum Rover tip even for above and beyond service!”

“Fantastic experience! Carol and Brian were very accommodating of a short notice request. I felt very comfortable leaving bobbin with them. They sent lots of photo updates and bobbin had a lot of fun playing while he was with them. I picked up a very happy and tired dog. Thanks!”

“Nicole and her husband were absolutely lovely!! Quick response time, instant affection and kindness/adoration for our pups, and incredibly friendly. Our pups INSTANTLY were at ease on their property (which I think is always a strong tell) and their property is a pup's heaven! Thank you so much, Nicole. Barley and Hazel can't wait to play with you again.”


“Adam really came through for me when I was in a pinch and I'm so very grateful. He was accommodating for a last minute daycare situation and super compassionate for what I was going through. My pup obviously had a great time playing with his dogs and gave Adam kisses when they said goodbye. Highly recommend!”

“I HIGHLY recommend using Amanda to care for your pup! She’s treats your pup like her own. Mine came home happy n completely exhausted every time he visited her home. Her back yard is safe and secure as well.”

“As always Terika was great to work with and Lady had a great time. Terika communicates well, takes lots of pictures, and always has plenty of toys for the pups to play with! Will always recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was young. As well as many farm animals. I just separated from the military and kind of wanting to do something that makes me happy for a while. Which is getting to love on all the fur babies. I can give medicine as I have been treating my pup now for a few years. I can also take them for walks if wanted. My roommate does have two smaller dogs that get along with others. Pretty free schedule can accommodate last minute bookings. As far as the weekly routine if I’m booked I will be with your pups as long as you’d want me there to entertain them. My roommate has two small dogs. They get along with other dogs but mostly just lay around. Would love to discuss house rules before hand, such as are they allowed on the furniture, what are feeding times, do they get crated at night? I would also like to do a meet and greet before as well, that way they have met me and im not just a new person to them while their people are gone.
About: I have been pet sitting, and dog walking for many years. I use to house sit as well, but with two little ones I decided to stay to my home and go for quick visits to peoples homes.

I myself have three dogs of all different sizes, and a few rabbits as well for showing and my daughter for 4H. I have experience with all sorts of animals, Dogs, cats, poultry, rabbits, goats, pigs, and other smaller farm animals.
