“Our dogs were given so much love over the last week. One of our pups had an upset tummy in the middle of the week and she kept us updated. She sent us pictures and I'm so thankful that I know they got lots of attention. We already another trip booked using them and a 3rd will be booked soon. Thanks for loving on my babies ❤️ Amy P.”
“My 3 pups were at ease as soon as we got there which is huge for me. They were right at home which rarely happens. Echo is a wonderful care giver and took my 3 at the last minute which I will never forget! She did an awesome job and sent pictures often. This always makes me feel a little less guilty for leaving by seeing them relaxed and having fun. I wholeheartedly recommend Echo for your fur babies care when you have to go somewhere and need someone who will take great care of them! I will definitely be using Echo again.”
“Christina was our first booking with Rover, and we could not have asked for a more caring dog sitter. She treated our 1.5 year old GSP like her own and sent us pictures to keep us posted on all the fun he was having. We really appreciated her frequent communication and how she genuinely loved on Branch while we were away. We would highly recommend!”
“After seeing all of the positive reviews about Crystal, I felt so at ease leaving my fur babies with her. She boarded my cat and dog for an extended weekend while my husband and I were away. I know they were in good hands.”
“Amazing sitter!! Communication was easy and Penelope was so at ease under her care! I had a great experience and I know Penelope did too! It’s so nice to know that she’s not anxious while I’m away!”
“Brittany went out of her way to make Zelda feel at home. She worked with Zelda's needs and provided updates to ensure my nerves were at ease. Truly wish I lived nearby so I could drop Zelda off to her again! Thank you 🙏🏽”
“Lindsey was great with our senior doberman, she kept up with all his medications. She was very accommodating and gave us updates on our pup. An added bonus, as a Vet tech, she made us feel very comfortable our dog was in good hands. Thanks Lindsey, we will be using your services again soon!”
“Gerry and her family were great with Saint. This was the first time we have left him with someone for a long time (3 weeks). We got pictures very frequently. Her house and yard are uniquely set up for dogs, including crating if your dog is crate trained. Because we were out of the country when the COVID19 issue took shape, we had to return early and Gerry promptly processed a change through Rover. We are thankful for the care that they gave Saint.”
“Great home-away-from-home for our Corgi mix. Waffle had two other dogs to play with—one a full Corgi—and a little girl, and he loves children. Brooke was great at accommodating our furbaby’s separation anxiety and our cluelessness on his first time away from us, for a week! Will be back next time we need a pet sitter.”
“Absolutely love Cherish! She was so attentive to our pups they were missing her when we got home! She went way above and beyond! Highly recommend you reach out to her if you need someone to care for your pets while you are away! You just can’t have her when I need her! 😀”
“We are so thankful we found Marluce. She is definitely going to be out go to person! She took very good care of our fur baby, sent texts and pictures daily. I could tell when I picked him up that he had made himself at home and very much had fun during his stay there. Marluce is a very patient kind hearted person who listens well and understands that pets a lot of times are more than just pets, for a lot of us they are our babies! Thank you Marluce! Hugs for little Cassy ❤️”
“Christine and her family took wonderful care of my girl while I was out of town! She sent frequent photos and updates and was flexible when I needed to drop her off early. My dog had a blast with them!”
“Brittany was great! She sent me pictures every day, and told me how good they were doing. She even cleaned their ears! I was very pleased with her and will definitely use her again!”
About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.
“I was worried the dogs wouldn't want to come home from all the pictures of them playing with the family dog the kids and themselves. So happy we found a place where I know they feel at home!!”
About: I have owned pets my whole life. I have owned cats and small dogs and even big dogs including Belgian Malinois in my lifetime. I will give your dogs and cats the best love and care while watching them. I am a stay at home dog mom so I have plenty of time to care for other peoples fur babies and give them the best care and love. If your pet stays in my home they will get lots of walks and lots of play time. I have a nice neighborhood for walking.
“Ruth and her husband provided excellent care for my dog while I was away. They have great knowledge about dogs and offered a wonderful home away from home for my pup. Highly recommended.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!”
About: Surrounding myself around pets has always given me serenity and peace. I worked at a dog resort where I fed, walked, played with, cleaned up after, and even had nap time with many dogs. I have studied dog behavior and group play through lessons given by my employment at the dog resort. I can administer medication and do my absolute best at following any requirements your fur baby needs! I have a friendly mini golden doodl), a playful toy Australian Shepherd, and two sweet cats whom I love to pieces! I also work from home and have a very flexible schedule. If you choose to get your baby taken care of by me, I will treat them like my own ❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule so they will have all of my attention! If they want it lol. I can also work around specific times you want your dog to eat, medication administered, etc. I have a fenced yard and two dogs that love to play! I can also provide a safe room and playpen for your dog to be in whenever I’m not home if that’s what they please!

About: Cats are some of my favorite creatures on earth, and I have owned two of my own for seven years.

About: Hey there! Im on par with crazy dog lady at this point❤️ I'm dedicated to taking care of your pet(s) and making sure that they have everything they need and are safe. I have four of my own and I would adopt more if my husband would win the lottery and buy us a dog farm lol. I do not mix my dogs with your pets to ensure safety of all puppers! I will care for your pet(s) just like I would any of mine. I don't have children, I have fur babies :-) My house has a large fenced backyard with trees and is just like being in the woods. I will follow the instructions you leave for me, feed them at the times that you request, and dispense any medication as instructed. I am great with communication and will absolutely send you pictures and updates throughout the day because Id want them as well!

I have a fenced in backyard, but I can also leash walk your pets as needed. We also have a great nature trail within 5 minutes of my home for higher energy dogs.
“I can't say enough good stuff about Cheyenne! You should know that I have never trusted many people with my animals, but Cheyenne earned my trust and kept it. Anyone who knows me knows what a huge compliment that is. After another sitter flaked out on us, she came to the rescue at the very last minute. She is always on time, communicates well, kind, caring, and went way beyond to make sure not just the animals were happy... but us too. We put extra on her and she willingly went even further. I hope she is still doing this when we go on our next trip! Again, she is great. Great customer service, very professional, and great with animals. :) Cheyenne, I'm sorry I didn't share the YouTube videos for the parrots sooner. If I had known it would make yall instant friends, I would have. Lol”
“Katherine, Cared for our cat exceptionally well. She went above and beyond with keeping her fed and watered (our sassafras cat-who runs the house) is very picky). She updated us after every visit, I would recommend her and will absolutely rebook with Katherine!”
“I hired Paige to care for my cat while I was away for a few days and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She was incredibly friendly, communicated clearly and consistently, and followed all instructions perfectly. My cat was well cared for and happy when I returned. I would absolutely recommend Paige to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”
About: I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment where pets can truly relax and feel at home while you’re away. After many years working as a software engineer, I’m now retired and finally able to focus on something I’ve always loved — caring for animals. I’ve spent a lifetime around dogs, cats, and even chickens, and I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, they’ll receive patient, attentive care in a low-stress environment — not a crowded kennel or chaotic setting. At my home, pets enjoy a peaceful atmosphere, outdoor space, and even access to a private trail for safe, supervised walks and enrichment. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind, and to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for — just like family. Being retired allows me to dedicate a lot of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m home most of the day, so they are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, consistent environment. I naturally build my daily routine around their needs—regular feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest. I also adapt to each pet’s habits and energy level, whether they need more activity or a quieter pace. Because of my flexible schedule, I can provide close supervision and make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay. I provide a safe, clean, and calm home environment where pets are always supervised and treated with care and respect. I take time at the beginning of each stay to understand your pet’s routine, habits, and any special instructions so I can keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. In my home, I ensure the space is secure and pet-friendly, with no access to anything unsafe. Pets have a comfortable area to rest, fresh water at all times, and a clean environment. I closely supervise interactions and never leave pets unattended in situations that could pose a risk. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, and I monitor behavior to quickly notice any signs of stress or discomfort. If needed, I can separate pets to ensure everyone remains safe and relaxed. My goal is to create a trusted environment where pets feel at ease and owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands.
“Showed up and did everything, very respectful of my space and my pets. It’s always a stress wondering if someone will be reliable especially with your pets while you’re on vacation. I’m very pleased and would definitely recommend to anyone in need of pet sitting.”
About: Caring for pets isn’t just a job, it’s a passion. I provide loving, patient, and dedicated care so your pet feels happy and safe while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive attention, affection, and the care they deserve at all times.
About: Hi! I’m Lyndsey and I was a veterinary technician for 4 years, but have been dog sitting full time for the past 3+ years. I also have my own licensed dog boarding business, and do Rover on the side when I have availability! My husband and I live in Athens,TN. We have about 5 acres of land fenced in. We love getting to meet all kinds of different dogs, and having them interact with my kids. I’m home pretty much all the time so I never have to crate unless they sleep in one at night. I have clients that have been returning since 2019. I have 2 little girls, and all the dogs I’ve watched have been great with them! During all of the stays for the dogs I watch I provide homemade treats, and toys to play with. I hope to watch your fur baby real soon! ❤️ So I’m available any weekend or weekday to dog sit your sweet fur babies! I will make sure they are in great hands! Look forward to meeting new clients! I’m able to administer any medications you may need for your fur baby! I’m currently home 24/7 unless I have doctor appts, or have to run a few errands. So your dog wouldn’t ever need to be crated unless you have them sleep in one at night. I can also admin meds if they require to have any during the day. I have a fenced in yard that wraps around my whole house, and also send pics throughout the day how they are doing. They have plenty of room to play as well.
“We had Becca come for a meet and greet while we were home to meet our pack and the setup for future house sitting. She was very communicative prior to the visit and really loved on our furbabies during the visit. We are looking forward to planning our trip and for Becca to stay with our furbabies.”

About: Dogs naturally gravitate to me and me to them. They have been a part of my life for over 18 years. I've cared for three senior dogs of my own, two who had several chronic conditions. I have experience administering medication and providing special care. In addition, over the years, I've gained experience caring for the dogs of other owners. Your baby will be pampered and spoiled as if he or she was one of my own. Your pet(s) will receive multiple potty breaks throughout the day. In addition, pet(s) will get daily play time in large fenced backyard and 2 walks a day. I have a half an acre fenced backyard, so plenty of space for your baby to run around and play. Clean dog beds, and if preferred for sleeping, crates with beds for all sizes. For the length of the stay, your baby will be able to make himself or herself at home.

I've spent years caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and support.

I look forward to becoming one of your pet's favorite people! Because I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule and am able to provide care throughout the day. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, medication administration, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Every animal is unique, so I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs before care begins. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or providing drop-in visits, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress and help them feel secure. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise requirements, and household rules. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, and overall well-being so that any concerns can be addressed promptly.

About: We're a homeschool, pet-loving family. Your furry friend is going to have an awesome and FUN time while you're away! We do plenty of walks and outdoor play. Our house is large and open as well. We do ask that pets are kid friendly and house-broken. We've pet sat for friends and family for many years and would love to give your pet a fun stay! We're hoping to create long-term relationships with pet-parents. I'm a homeschool mom and love to spend time at home snuggling furry pets! I have an awesome neighborhood with sidewalks and other friendly, neighbor dog-walkers. I have a large house and welcome pets that want to be petted, walked and loved on. For independant cats, there is plenty of room to roam. Note, my yard is not fenced, but we have a huge lot to explore and sidewalks for long neighborhood walks.

“My dog ran back and gave Kallie two good-byes before coming to me to go home, which was a great sign to me that he really loved her and trusted her. She is very good with my golden retriever and has a nice home and fenced yard for him. I am so happy I found her.”
About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.

I offer at-your-home drop in visits which may include food, water, bathroom breaks and medication administration. Dog walking is also available in your neighborhood.
About: One of my cats has separation anxiety and chronic health issues, so I know how hard it can be to travel while worrying about your pets. My goal is to provide an enriching but calming experience for your pets while you’re away so you can have peace of mind. I have owned pets since I was a kid, and have also spent over a decade riding and caring for horses. I have experience administering medication to cats, and am meticulously observant about any behavioral changes. My husband and I own our own company, and I work from home full-time, so my schedule is extremely flexible. This also allows me to bring my work to your house and spend extra quality time with your pets. My goal is to provide an enriching but calming experience for your pets while you’re away so you can have peace of mind while you travel. I have experience giving medications to both dogs and cats, and I monitor pets closely for any behavioral changes. I also want your pet to have an enjoyable, stress-free experience - wether they need cuddles or play (and hopefully both!) I am happy to cater to their individual needs.

About: Hi!! I am 18, I will make sure you are comfortable with me being your home and trusting me with your animal!! I have been taking care of animals since I was able to understand the concept. I have a chocolate lab names Rusty and two guinea pigs named Costello and Kota. I adore animals! I work a part time job and I am currently in college. Tuesdays and Thursdays I have classes from 9:30 am to 1:45 pm. I will be available from 6:00am - 8:00am and 2:30pm - 10:00pm on those days! Any other day of the week I am completely available. (Apart from working around my part- time schedule) I can care for animals in all sorts of ways, if you just need someone to watch your pet for a couple hours, feed, water and play with them. If you need them taken to training classes, the park, etc. Anything! :)
About: I have had dogs in my family since I was born and I absolutely love all dogs great and small. I have cared for dogs from puppies to seniors and even a cat (shocking I know)! I currently work from home and I am able to give great attention to your pet. If you need any urgent care, just let me know. I like to let pets warm up to me, I don’t like to try and pet them or hold them - I think it’s better to let them learn to like you. Once they’ve accepted me, I’m their best friend!
“Rex loved Abbi and his walks She is totally dependable and never let us down We are so happy we had Abbi take care of Rex She is wonderful Thank you so much and hopefully we will have you take care of Rex when we come back to work here at Sequoyah”
About: I love animal behavior and training. I personally trained our service dog, Crew. He goes just about everywhere with us- trails, stores, restaurants, hotels, airplanes. In my neighborhood growing up, people would call me whenever they went away and wanted animal care. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, and rabbits. I had my Siberian husky for 16 great years. I loved training her. I considered stuffing pillows with the volume of fur I brushed out of her coat! I can help with puppy and obedience training. I can help with advanced canine skills, including scent work, service work, and public access. I can administer medication. I can bathe and brush. I can play and have a great time with your pet! Something else? Just ask me! My wife and I keep a remote work situation which enables flexibility. Let me know what your specific needs are and I’ll be happy to coordinate with you. Consistency is key for animals. I aim to maintain the status quo that your pets are used to in their home. I welcome owner instructions and preferences. If crating a dog, I prefer to do so after exercise and potty.
About: Hi, I’m Tony! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’m lucky enough to have turned that love into my career. I’m a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) graduate currently trying to get my license. I’m passionate about making pets feel safe, loved, and cared for, just like part of the family. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog needing extra TLC, or a cat who just needs a cozy lap to nap on, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and at home, even when you can’t be there. I am currently living in Ooltewah, while I wait for my veterinary license. I have lots of free time during the week to dedicate to caring for your pets! I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own home. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I have clinical experience, so I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets, special needs pets, and administering medications if needed. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, and you can trust that your pet is in kind, capable hands every step of the way. My goal is to provide not just care, but comfort, attention, and peace of mind, for both you and your pet!
About: I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment where pets can truly relax and feel at home while you’re away. After many years working as a software engineer, I’m now retired and finally able to focus on something I’ve always loved — caring for animals. I’ve spent a lifetime around dogs, cats, and even chickens, and I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, they’ll receive patient, attentive care in a low-stress environment — not a crowded kennel or chaotic setting. At my home, pets enjoy a peaceful atmosphere, outdoor space, and even access to a private trail for safe, supervised walks and enrichment. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind, and to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for — just like family. Being retired allows me to dedicate a lot of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m home most of the day, so they are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, consistent environment. I naturally build my daily routine around their needs—regular feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest. I also adapt to each pet’s habits and energy level, whether they need more activity or a quieter pace. Because of my flexible schedule, I can provide close supervision and make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay. I provide a safe, clean, and calm home environment where pets are always supervised and treated with care and respect. I take time at the beginning of each stay to understand your pet’s routine, habits, and any special instructions so I can keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. In my home, I ensure the space is secure and pet-friendly, with no access to anything unsafe. Pets have a comfortable area to rest, fresh water at all times, and a clean environment. I closely supervise interactions and never leave pets unattended in situations that could pose a risk. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, and I monitor behavior to quickly notice any signs of stress or discomfort. If needed, I can separate pets to ensure everyone remains safe and relaxed. My goal is to create a trusted environment where pets feel at ease and owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands.
About: I offer pet care with love, responsibility, and great attention to detail. I understand that every pet is part of the family, which is why I provide a safe, clean, and caring environment. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or companionship, your pet will be in good hands and receive the care they deserve. I work for myself, which gives me a very flexible schedule to care for your furry baby and give them plenty of attention and love. I also have two friendly dogs who love to play and socialize, so your pup will have great company and a fun, safe environment while in my care. I have a fenced backyard, which helps keep your baby safe and secure while they play and enjoy their time outside. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved like part of the family.

“Our dogs were given so much love over the last week. One of our pups had an upset tummy in the middle of the week and she kept us updated. She sent us pictures and I'm so thankful that I know they got lots of attention. We already another trip booked using them and a 3rd will be booked soon. Thanks for loving on my babies ❤️ Amy P.”
“My 3 pups were at ease as soon as we got there which is huge for me. They were right at home which rarely happens. Echo is a wonderful care giver and took my 3 at the last minute which I will never forget! She did an awesome job and sent pictures often. This always makes me feel a little less guilty for leaving by seeing them relaxed and having fun. I wholeheartedly recommend Echo for your fur babies care when you have to go somewhere and need someone who will take great care of them! I will definitely be using Echo again.”
“Christina was our first booking with Rover, and we could not have asked for a more caring dog sitter. She treated our 1.5 year old GSP like her own and sent us pictures to keep us posted on all the fun he was having. We really appreciated her frequent communication and how she genuinely loved on Branch while we were away. We would highly recommend!”
“Brittany went out of her way to make Zelda feel at home. She worked with Zelda's needs and provided updates to ensure my nerves were at ease. Truly wish I lived nearby so I could drop Zelda off to her again! Thank you 🙏🏽”
“Lindsey was great with our senior doberman, she kept up with all his medications. She was very accommodating and gave us updates on our pup. An added bonus, as a Vet tech, she made us feel very comfortable our dog was in good hands. Thanks Lindsey, we will be using your services again soon!”
“Great home-away-from-home for our Corgi mix. Waffle had two other dogs to play with—one a full Corgi—and a little girl, and he loves children. Brooke was great at accommodating our furbaby’s separation anxiety and our cluelessness on his first time away from us, for a week! Will be back next time we need a pet sitter.”
“Absolutely love Cherish! She was so attentive to our pups they were missing her when we got home! She went way above and beyond! Highly recommend you reach out to her if you need someone to care for your pets while you are away! You just can’t have her when I need her! 😀”
“Christine and her family took wonderful care of my girl while I was out of town! She sent frequent photos and updates and was flexible when I needed to drop her off early. My dog had a blast with them!”
“Brittany was great! She sent me pictures every day, and told me how good they were doing. She even cleaned their ears! I was very pleased with her and will definitely use her again!”
About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!”
“Major, our Shih Tzu, needs a little extra TLC. So we are very happy that Rachel was available to take care of him for our vacation. She made sure he got all the attention an older dog needs. She sent daily pictures and updates and gave Major his special diet and lots of love.”
“Joslynne was great with Levi and Strauss! She was very responsive and both of our boys seemed very comfortable with her immediately after our meet and greet! Thank you Joslynne for taking great care of our babies! ?”
“Brandy was so sweet to my pup and sent daily updates! She was very responsive as well. He came back to me in awesome spirits and seemed to have a great time! I would definitely re-book with her!”
“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”
“Jason took such great care of our husky, Apollo, and on short notice when our initial vacation plans were thwarted. Our doggo is a high-energy goofball; Jason cared for him like one of his own dogs, and sent us picture and video updates. Apollo really enjoyed his stay with Jason, and we couldn't be more thankful!”
“Super sweet and accommodating! We had a cancellation and needed a last minute babysitter, and Laura helped us out no questions asked! She sent us updates everyday, and even had extra collars when we forgot ours. Our puppy seemed to get along great with her pets/family, so I’d definitely recommend Laura if your pup enjoys running around and socializing. I will definitely be rebooking!!!”
“Our two puppies Asher and Snoopy had a wonderful week away from their pawrents this past week! Bethani made them feel at home and gave them a great amount of exercise while we were away on our trip! Thank you Bethani!!! Looking forward to having our pups stay again with you!!!”
“My first time away from the pups and frankly I was nervous. Aric kept me informed on them and it was obvious they were treated like they were “family”. It gave me peace of mind and I was able to enjoy my time. ( I think they ? also enjoyed their “staycation” from me ?)”
