“Jennifer took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She communicated with me every day and sent photos. Before drop off, she called and told me about the environment at her house and asked some questions, which was reassuring. She treated our dog like he was one of her family members. He came home happy and tired, and he made friends with some other pups. We would definitely use Jennifer again as a dogsitter. Thanks!”

“Tina was fantastic! She sent me text messages, pictures, and videos of my Boston Terrier, Lee Lee. Tina took Lee Lee to the local dog park for exercise and cuddled with her in the evenings. I don't think my dog missed me at all. I will definitely use Tina in the future.”

“Christianna did a great job of caring for our dog, Max. We greatly appreciate her ability to book last minute! She provided photos and updates over the time we were gone. Max was very well taken care of. We highly recommend Christianna!”

“She’s the best ! I had a last minute family situation and she was able to accommodate getting my dog later in the evening and kept her longer than expected! Thank you !”


“Thank you Melissa! Max and Ringo had a great stay with you. They loved your fenced and shaded backyard and appreciated splashing in the doggie pool. It was the perfect environment!”

“Our two dogs are always happy at Rose’s home! We enjoy pictures and updates while we’re traveling. We have a senior dog and it is a comfort to know she is comfortable and happy while we’re away.”

“Brandy and her family were amazing!! We left both of our pups with them for weekend boarding and the care that they received was exactly what any dog parent would want; they were loved on all weekend and we were sent plenty of photo updates! Definitely would recommend Brandy and we’ll definitely be using her again!”


“It was obvious that Christine genuinely loves the dogs she looks after. She gave Gordon a no-rush meet-and-greet and let him get used to her house. She had lots of amenities for dogs, including toys and treats, and was careful to ask good questions about Gordon’s habits and preferences. Christine also gave daily updates including videos and photos, which really helped us realize how our little guy was fitting in. We would be happy to let Gordon stay with Christine again in the future!”

“Karen was warm and friendly with both us and our dog. She sent regular updates while we were away. Our dog must really love Karen because she was barking protectively when I walked up to the door. We look forward to more visits with Karen!”

“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my dog while I was away. It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. Your patience, kindness, and attention truly mean a lot, and I could tell my dog felt comfortable and happy with you. I really appreciate the time, effort, and love you put into caring for them. Thank you again for everything!”

“Sarah was so easy to work with, responsive, and friendly. She has a lovely home with a great yard. I appreciated her checking in with updates and pics, and could enjoy my trip knowing my pup was in such great care. Will definitely book again and highly recommended!”

“Ellie exceeded my expectations. She was available to sit for my dogs on very short notice, was very communicative, and sent pictures of my pups regularly. It was such a relief knowing they were so we'll taken care of while I was away.”

“When I picked up Jackson, I was not sure he wanted to leave his vacation with Kathryn and her wonderful family! Sure he was excited to see us, but, then he laid down next to Kathryn as if he was feeling pretty comfortable at her home! She sent photos and write ups daily and this made me feel so much better about leaving him in her care. It was like he knew the family forever! This was the first time we went away without him in 8 years so I was a bit anxious about leaving. I would have no problems leaving him again if I have another opportunity to do so. I highly recommend Kathryn and I know he was very happy being there and well cared for. He enjoyed his daily walks and never missed a meal and perhaps, Me!!!! If there were 10 stars I would click everyone of them!”

“Was very appreciative that Donna took Kodi at the last minute when her usual border wasn't available. She seems so pleasant. Kodi was fine. I will definitely use her again if necessary. I gave her a cash tip which I always do so that they can get full benefit of it.”

“Audrianna was a fantastic sitter for my senior kitty, Jackson! She sent pictures and updates often as requested, provided tons of play time, and most importantly, I came home to a happy boy. Highly recommend!!”

“TOP ENDORSEMENT: Pet care is Kimberly's career. This dedication & training are evident in her professional in-person demeanor and ease with animals. Kimberly sat my two male, semi-feral cats for a week and I couldn't be happier with her care. Food, water, and litterbox cleaning was EXACTLY as I asked. The aloof, don't-touch-me cat now adores her. She was even kind enough to water my money tree and stack my mail. Her expertise and depth of experience enabled me to travel completely WORRY FREE. Highly recommend!”

“Ellie G. is a great communicator with photo updates. The daycare day went well and Annie O was introduced to Ellie’s chickens and I’m sure she wanted to get a little closer but Ellie was great keeping Annie away from them. Annie also met Ellie’s dog and it appears that they both made a new friend. The day was a success.”

“I would leave Linda 10 stars if I could. She was very flexible with my early drop off times. Sends lots of pics of your pet while they are with her. My dog has the best day ever when she goes to Linda’s house, she comes home and puts herself straight to bed after a day at Linda’s daycare!! ❤️”

“Teela did a great job with our puppy! She accommodated our last minute booking and was very friendly. She gave us updates and pictures throughout the day which put us at ease. Would definitely book again in the future!”

“Lynn is very nice and kept me updated. Every so often she sent me pictures of Annie and their outings. Very communicative. I love that. We will definitely use Lynn again and will recommend her to friends. All in all it was a great day for Annie.”

“Corey and Monica were very friendly and took great care of Pepper. They sent photos throughout the day which I appreciated. They were accomodating and willing to work with me with some of Peppers anxiety issues. Will definitely be bringing Pepper back for future daycare :)”

“Victor and Abigail were awesome and took extra steps to make sure our anxious pup had a great time. They sent us videos and pictures every day, which we really appreciated. After his first day in daycare, my dog was very excited to return on the following days. He seemed to really like the folks who took care of him and was nice and tired once I picked him up. Staying with these folks was definitely a mini vacation for my dog!”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with them, cared for and dog sat for over 15 years while being a nannny. I've had two dogs of my own as well. My family and I have recently lost our beloved pup and are desiring to spend time with yours to get all the dog snuggles and love we can! I am a stay at home mom with 3 kids. We are home daily and most weekends. We love for your sweet pup to hang with us during the day or stay with us during a vacation or long weekend away. We do not have a fenced in yard but have 2 acres of property that we would leash your dog and take for walks around the property. We had a dog in the past that had medication needs and special food needs so I accustomed to caring for dogs with special needs. We are also a couch/furniture friendly family if that is something that is important to you. We do have small children but both are use to dogs and love them! We also do not have a pet of our right currently and so your dog would definitely be the center of our attention.

About: Hi 👋 My name is Brooke and I’m your 4-legged-baby‘s new best friend. I am both a dog and a cat person. I’ve had the privilege loving my own and have fostered many others. I have tons of experience with special needs pets, including special diets and administering medications. While getting paid to do something I love sounds amazing, safety is priority number 1. So go and enjoy yourself, I have everything under control 😉 While I do have to show up to my day job in order to maintain my cats life of luxury(and believe me he is demanding), I am an early bird so I can stop by first thing in the morning. I will head right over after work and again before bed. Unless you’d like me to have a sleep over with your pet so that they won’t feel lonely. I’m going to love your pet as if they were my own. I follow instructions and I don’t allow myself to become distracted. Your pet is my priority.
