Personalized care for your dog or cat - Barneston

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Barneston
“My grand pup Axel had an amazing time with Janessa. The whole family took great care of him. He came home completely happy and exhausted. That worked for me because I was exhausted too from my trip. It was his first time boarded at four years old and I was worried. He also has some habits that can make him a challenge sometimes. But in spite of all my trepidation he was really happy and all went so well. He goes back for another 9 days at the end of the month because life just got in the way. I am so happy that I have a place I know he is happy. Thank you Janessa and family”

“Awesome! Erika was super helpful, accommodating and very communicative! We got almost daily pictures of Luna which was amazing and Erika was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. Our pup came back from a week with her very happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”

“Chloe, thanks for watching our pups while we were traveling! They came back happy and tired from all the walks and playtime they got with you and your family. We’re already looking forward to coming back!”


“Nikko had another great stay with Jeanne! He was so excited to see her and his BFF Ivy. It's great to have peace of mind when you need to leave your "furry family member." ”

“Bryan watched Colby over Memorial Day weekend and from the meet and greet I was confident he would be in good hands with a family of dog people. I felt like we were understood and accepted. When I picked him up, Colby was happy to see me but then went back to lounge in their living room, which I feel is a statement that he was content being part of the household and all of his needs were met. He was calm and sleepy when he got home, which is also a good sign that he got the exercise he needed. Thank you so much for taking great care of Colby <3”

“Ben and family took great care of our 6 month puppy. We left him there for 5 days and Ben made sure to keep us updated with pics of Zuko playing with the other pups. I could also see how much affection Ben's mom had for Zuko during pickup and dropoff. Zuko was in great spirits when I picked him up and seemed to be very happy. Will definitely be using Ben's sitting for the future.”

“Lexi and Vic are one of a kind! Super accommodating and easy to coordinate with. My dog Finn had a blast running around with their furry friend all week and they sent great updates to let me know how my pup was doing. 10/10 would recommend and will book again!”

“Vanessa was amazing taking care of my dog, Moxie over the holidays! Taking her on activities, sending tons of pictures every day, and just generally including her in the family activities! We'll definitely use Vanessa again!”

“Duque was really happy when I pick him up, so that says a lot of his stay. Alexis was very responsive and sent a lot of pictures of their adventures. Highly recommended!”
“We could not ask for a better family to take care of our dog while we’re away. Stanley and his wife Victoria are true dog lovers and they treat our dog, Nori, like she is their own. Their dog Charlie and Nori get along great and I received countless pics and videos of them playing together. Communication is great and fast and we plan to book with Stanley time and again!”

“This was my first time using Rover and so I was really excited to try Mariah after seeing her reviews and location. I’m so impressed with our whole experience. From our meet and greet to seeing the boarding and play area it was much better than I expected. I thought it was just perfect and I couldn’t believe our luck. Mariah is thoughtful, well prepared and excellent with dogs. The boarding area is super clean, very organized and well lit. It was almost like leaving Murphy with a family member only better. I would highly recommend her services to everyone. She was a great communicator and kept us updated on Murphy’s activities. I couldn’t imagine a better experience than the one we shared with Mariah. Thanks again.”

“Lexi was fantastic about helping our first-time boarding pup feel safe and calm. She was patient with getting her comfortable and communicated well all throughout our trip, making us confident our pup was in good hands. I would definitely use Lexi again and recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and patient person to trust their pup with!”

“Our experience with Katie and her family was nothing short of incredible. From the meet and greet where Katie listened to all the things that make Wrigley, Wrigley, to sharing what we could expect for him while in her care, to the drop off where they helped ease the goodbye (Wrigs has short-term separation anxiety), to the photos and texts during his stay, to the pickup where Wrigley clearly demonstrated that he was settled and comfortable (it took him a minute for him to even realize I was calling his name b/c he was engaging with Katie), we couldn't have asked for more. They adapted to Wrigley's needs and welcomed him right in. Wrigley came home happy (and wiped out) from his 4 day playdate, and we know where we'll try and send him whenever we need to know that he's getting the same kind of care and love we give him at home. Thank you, Katie and family!”

“Anji was a great sitter for our dog over the weekend. It’s clear she geniunely loves the animals she cares for. She was communicative, responsible, and has such a great space for dogs to play and relax. Thanks and Harvey can’t wait to visit again!”

“Chris was easy to work with and took great care of our dog. He updated us regularly providing pictures on walks and at the dog park. I would definitely book with Chris again.”


“Diana and her kids are wonderful! They last minute helped us out and cared for our silly pup Olive. The boys kept Olive busy and Diana is an excellent communicator. I only wish they lived closer to us. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Lora Renee took great care of our cat! He was diagnosed with Lymphoma 2 months ago and we were hesitant to leave him, but Lora Renee immediately put us at ease. We felt very comfortable having her in our home.”

“Lindsay was wonderful with Winston. This was his first time being alone for a length of time. She was patient with him. By the second visit he was likely looking forward to visits for more than just the food. Lol. I got plenty of pics which eased my mind and brought a smile to my face. ☆☆☆☆☆”


“Ardelle did a fantastic job. My brave kitty made ready friends with her, and she took the time to take pictures of my shy guy, too. It was a great relief to know they were well cared for while I was away.”


“Mary was so great with our two labs, one of which is a 3 month old puppy. She is very timely, flexible, and attentive. We are so grateful to have found a reliable sitter and would recommend her to anyone!”


“Gianna was very helpful in a last-minute request for our 4 cats, including one who requires inhaler and medicine administration. She provided thorough updates and shared pictures of all four (even the hard to find ones). For disclosure, I am a Rover employee.”


About: I’ve loved and cared for cats my entire life and have cats of my own. I’m comfortable caring for cats with all different personalities, from playful and social to shy and independent. I also have experience caring for a client’s cat who required medication by injection, which I administered successfully. I’m patient, attentive, and always follow feeding, medication, litter, and care instructions closely while giving each cat the space or affection they prefer.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m very attentive to each dog’s routine and needs, whether that means regular walks, playtime, enrichment activities, or simply providing calm companionship. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, comfort level, and any specific instructions from their owner. I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, basic grooming like brushing, cleaning up after pets, and making sure dogs get the exercise and attention they need. I pay close attention to behavior and body language so I can make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. My goal is always to make pets feel as relaxed and loved as they would at home. I also make sure owners feel at ease by providing updates and photos so they know their dog is in good hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I currently have a very open and flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day rather than rushing visits. I’m able to adapt to each pet’s routine and make sure they get the care, consistency, and attention they’re used to at home. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure every dog in my care is supervised, secure, and in a calm environment where they can feel safe and relaxed. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, routines, and any special needs their dog may have. I pay close attention to behavior and body language to make sure dogs are comfortable and not stressed. I also keep a clean and organized environment, remove any potential hazards, and make sure dogs are always handled with patience and care. When outside, I prioritize leash safety and awareness of surroundings to ensure safe walks. Building trust with both dogs and their owners is very important to me. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing and can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and dependable experience for every dog I care for. 🐶

“Hi Emily! I just wanted to send a really warm thank you for everything you’ve done for our cats and fish tanks these past two weeks. Knowing you were stopping by twice a day and keeping such a close, caring eye on things made such a difference for us while we were gone. We could relax because we knew they were safe, comfortable, and looked after by someone who genuinely cares. Thank you for being so dependable, kind, and patient with all the little surprises that came up. We appreciate you so much.”


“Cynthia was a very competent sitter for my sweet feline Fannie. She sent numerous pics daily and gave me updates about my cat. She also stayed in my home so that my cat would have a person there with her at home. Cynthia was a very pleasant person individual and Fannie seemed very comfortable with her. Awesome sitter!!!!”

“Jordan did a fantastic job with my dog! Jordan came by for a drop in visit while working and all the updates he sent made my work day! He made sure that both my dogs needs and wants for play were met! Would recommend and book again.”

About: Hi there my name is Kelsey and I have centered my life around the health and well being of our furry friends. I spent 6 years working in pet insurance and have gained a lot of knowledge about how to create healthy and safe environments for our animals. The key is giving them time to warm up to a new environment, routine care and lots of affection. My own dog turns 15 this year and people still ask me if she is a puppy because of how active and happy she is around others. I always treat every animal as if they are my own and would be honored to do so for your pet too. I spend the majority of my time at home, hanging out in the backyard and have a pretty flexible schedule. We’d go outside at least 5-10 times a day, always early in the morning and right before bed. I have a fenced yard on over an acre of land and lots of non-harmful plants that my dogs loves to sniff around. When the dogs are outside I will be right there with them enjoying the afternoon.
“James took care of our two cats for a week. This was our first time leaving them alone this long. I've used Rover many times in the past, and I just need to say that this experience was the best yet! I am a Rover sitter myself (similar # of reviews and 5 stars), and I would even choose him over myself. He spent genuine time at our house through the week and kept us in the loop. For me, this is the expectation. Our cats are easily stressed and extremely needy, so when we normally arrive home, they are starving for attention. Not this time though. When we arrived home after being gone for 7 days, our boys were so relaxed, healthy, and happy. Even there coats were cleaner and healthier than before. Our house was vacuumed, dusted, bedding and living room blankets washed, trash/recycling was taken out. I'm a bit OCD and left our home extremely clean, but when we arrived home, it was even cleaner. If you are ever in need of a pet sitter, James is the best option. When you arrive home, you will understand exactly what I mean. He has my highest recommendation.”

“Susannah was great! We got regular updates with photos and the house was spotless when we got home. She made our senior cat very comfortable. We will certainly use her again!”

“Kate is absolutely amazing. While we were on holiday she took care of our two kittens. She sent daily pictures and went above and beyond to look after them. She is kind hearted and super sweet. I highly recommend hee!”

“Heather dropped in four times over the weekend to check in on, and take care of, our two cats needs while we were out of town. We have one cat who gets pretty freaked out when we're gone for extended more than a day, and she did not seem stressed at all when we got back to our home after Heather took care of her. Thanks, Heather, for taking good care of our fur babies.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Barneston
“Lexi and Victor were very easy going and responsive. We booked them so we could go hiking in Mount Rainier National Park for the day and it worked perfect. They were flexible and had great communication. Teddy had a great time.”

“Cheri has watched our pup twice and both times he’s come home content and ready for a little shut eye - it must be the nice, long walk in the forest. :) … Thank you for taking care of our somewhat anxious, excitable pup and for the excellent communication. Looking forward to more stays!!”

“Amanda is the absolute best! We had something pop up late and she took in our Indy for daycare twice this week - and he came home happy and exhausted. ☺️ Thank you for everything!!”

“Vanessa is awesome. She was so loving with Riley and sent pictures and updates throughout. As soon as I met her I could tell that she would take great care... extremely warm and kind. I felt totally comfortable with her as Riley's sitter!”

“Thank you so much, Ben and family! You guys are awesome! Gunner literally passed out when we got home. Haha! He had a lot of fun at your place. We'll bring him back for sure. So glad we found you guys :)”

“Fairly certain I get a better dog back than what I leave with ardelle 🤣 she gives the absolute best and cutest updates on all the fun things they do. Ziggy gets the full butt wiggle when he realizes who he's hanging out with. They go outside and run and play and she always has him nice and clean for me to pick back up. And she really just goes above and beyond in all aspects. Ziggy and I are both so happy to have found her and so appreciative of how great she has been for him to hang out with.”


“Jacklyn was great! Sent lots of (very cute!) pictures, walked McCoy, and made sure he got along with her own dog. McCoy was always happy to see her (and her dog) when we dropped him off. Jacklyn was also very responsive to us (e.g. when we had to modify our arrival/pick up time) which made our lives very easy.”

“Oscar had a wonderful day with Carol! He fell asleep in the car on the way home. Carol was warm and welcoming, and she treated Oscar just like one of her own. She had such kind words to share with us about his disposition which we were thankful to hear. Thanks so much!”

“Anji has a welcoming, comfortable, dog-friendly home with a large backyard. She is experienced and knowledgeable, and I will not hesitate to board my standard poodle with her in the future.”

“If I could give Manish 6 stars I would! He agreed to watch my two Malinois last minute, one of whom is a bit reactive. He prioritized a meet’n’greet to make sure all dogs felt comfortable; I was at ease instantly seeing him work the dogs through calming exercises to get to know each other. My reactive pup calmed down within minutes and ended up having a great time with his dog, Odin. He sent photos during their doggy day care visit and the pups came home happy and tired. Definitely recommend, I will book again!”

“Always an exceptional experience, and we never have to worry. I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle, Keith, and Lola — such a wonderful family. They’re personable, caring, and genuinely the best.”

About: If you prefer the boarding is like: ✅ small-group care ,only 1-4 small/medium dogs in the boarding period . We enjoy quality time and offer delicate care with each pup and so we want to limit our spots. ✅Out for Walk, out on trails ,woods and neighborhood for sniffing and releasing energy ✅Play time with humans and furry roommates-wrestling, chasing, small games like puzzle toy, hide and seek , fetching or tug of war etc. ✅ Relaxing home environment- our home is cozy and calm , gentle companionship, snuggles with small humans You are welcome to book with us! 👩🏻About me: I work from home and have more than 10 years of experience with dogs, canine training ,special care ( deafness, blindness) and precise medication . my approach is mainly based on the respect of for each dog temperament ,age and needs , to make sure their best stay experience. 🔔Important Note – Safety is Our Top Priority (Oct 2025) Since we go out on daily walks, please note that if your dog has a very sensitive stomach, we may not be the best fit.While we always do our best to make sure dogs don’t eat anything along the way, occasional accidents can happen. We truly appreciate your understanding and want to ensure every pup stays safe and comfortable during their stay. We are no longer accepting new clients with dogs that are over 50 lbs, or with high anxiety level , or uncontrollable barking issues. This helps us ensure a safe and enjoyable stay experience for all our furry guests and their roommates. 🌈In addition, I want to express my deepest gratitude to the owners , especially those who come back again and again , gave me the opportunity to care for your beloved little ones! It’s been an incredible journey getting to know dogs with different unique personalities and temperaments. They truly bring so many funny and heartwarming stories into our lives!

“I couldn’t be happier with the care Quinten provided for my dog Penny. From the moment we met, it was clear they had a genuine love for animals. They kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My pet was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Quinten to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!”

“Minnie was so amazing. I have a 6 month old Chihuahua terrier mix who isn’t very socialized yet so around strangers he can be very timid and fearful. I needed a dog sitter for about 12 hours and Minnie was a perfect fit. My pup took to her well during our meet and greet and during daycare she sent me tons of photo updates throughout the day. I’ve never seen my pup so comfortable with a stranger AND new environment as he looked in the photos. I can tell he was having fun. I’m so thankful his first experience with a pet sitter was a positive one. I would highly recommend Minnie to any pet parent!”

“I’ve booked with Mariah for 3 times now with more to come! My pup is always excited when I drop her off and so happy and relaxed when i picked her up. She’s obviously very well taken care off when i’m at work.”

“Thank you so much Lilia and fam for watching Gunner. It can be hard leaving him, but knowing he was safe, loved, and kept busy made all the difference. I could tell he had an amazing day because he came home happy and content. We appreciate you!”

“Kacey was the perfect answer to giving our dogs a midday break while our friends were taking care of them. Kacey was the ‘dog whisperer’ and even got our boys to ‘pose’ for some beautiful photos! We are very thankful for Kacey and her loving care of our boys during their walks together. Thank you, Kacey!”

“Lily was fantastic with our two pups! She was on time, communicated clearly and was very reliable! She was able to help us out last minute in a time we really needed it. We will continue to use her in the future!”

“Nicolas has been such a huge help with my girls!! They’re not the easiest to walk because one is old and stubborn and the other is young and wants to run, and he’s great with them. :)”

About: I’ve always dabbled in pet sitting for the fun of traveling and meeting new breeds. Now that I’m semi - retired, I've discovered a new joy in providing care without the pressure of outside responsibilities. Having nowhere else to be means I can spend hours with your pets, letting them set the pace on our walks, and offering endless cuddles, allowing me to form trusted connections with every animal I watch. It is not that pet care fits into my life as much as pet care IS my life. It is breakfast, walk or read (depending on the species), groom, pet, games, naps, then dinner and repeat until bedtime. In follow the outline provided by the pet parent to work through the pet’s familiar daily routine. For dogs, I emphasize exercise and with cats, I emphasize stillness. For both, we find a compromise 😂
About: I have been a dog sitter awhile and have gained a lot of experience. I have done overnight stays, check ins, dog walks, and more. I have a puppy of my own and have grown up with dogs my whole life. Neighbors, friends, and more have trusted me to check in on their pets, feed them, and play with them. Worked with many different dogs and various ages. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to come check in on the pups and play with them. My work schedule does change depending on the week but I am available every day of the week. I am free mornings and nights and would have time mid day to check in on the dogs. I have a fenced yard for my dog and I walk him twice a day so he can get his energy out. I would walk your dogs how ever much is needed. Additionally, I would make sure to check in on them multiple times outside of my other jobs to ensure that they are good and can be let out. I am comfortable making sure any necessary medication is given on time and that they are also fed at there normal times. I know how much pets need to play and I would love to play fetch and more with your pets!!
About: Hi there! Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember. My background includes working as a veterinary assistant, years of hands-on pet care experience and working as a K9 handler. I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines, and I strive to provide care that keeps them comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. I have experience with high energy, senior, special needs and more. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members. I provide dependable communication, plenty of photo updates, and attentive care for dogs, cats, and other household pets. My goal is simple: to treat your pets like they're my own and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I’m so excited to share that I now have FULL TIME availability for pet care! My calendar will be up to date so reach out for any help you may need! I can do daily or weekly walks and drop ins every day with no time restraints (unless I am booked). I currently do not have room to have your pet stay in my home, however I am more than happy to come to you whether that is for a walk/playtime and mealtime or for an overnight stay! I am more than happy to bring anything with me extra you might need or not have.
“Juan came by to take care of our kitties and it was perfect. He was communicative, respectful of our house, and did everything exactly as we wanted. Definitely rebooking with him again for Kitty care.”

About: I’ve taken care of family and friends pets for as long as I can remember! Me and my girlfriend have this rover page together as we host and care for all pets together!! She is a nurse and I work in maintenance meaning we both have very flexible and open schedules- especially during the week!! We have a 8 month old golden retriever puppy who we got when she was eight weeks old. She is fully crate, trained, and potty trained. She’s super sweet with everybody and loves all animals( even our cats)! We feel confident, taking care of a variety of pets and have experience in senior dog care, puppy stages, and everything in between!! as mentioned above I have a very flexible schedule ! I’m open most timings and most days! I love taking them on walks and playing with them! My puppy loves whenever anybody comes over!! I will try to make my schedule around the dog- trying to maintain a safe environment and keep them in their typical and normal routines !
About: I have walked and have had overnight stays with my neighbors dogs for 6 years now. From big dogs to small dogs and even cats! I prefer no aggressive breeds(pits, shepherds, no huskies etc) I am pretty free during the week now that my daughter has started school. I am a musician also so I am out of town sometimes for shows and gigs, but I do have free time too! If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have a big yard and there are great walking trails around my house. There is also a doggy park near by. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat, but he is chill and warms up easily. If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. We help each other out! Only excepting smaller to medium sized dogs for new clients currently. I do not have a fenced yard and keep all dogs on a leash whenever I am outside. They are able to run free in my home though!
“Raeven is clearly gifted! She is one of the good ones. She is truly a dog whisperer. My dog, Gabby, absolutely loves her like I have never seen her behave with another person save for me and my husband. It makes my heart smile. I know she is being well taken care of and super happy. Raeven is communicative, sends pics, and clearly cares about each animal like they belong to her personally.”
“Alright... where to begin! Brian did a wonderful meet and greet with my boys (two newfoundlands) and walked them today without me..that may seem like a strange thing to say but Byron (my younger boy) refuses to go on a walk for anyone but me - not even my husband! He was perfectly fine on going on the walk with Sinjin (my older boy) and Brian. No temper tantrums, no refusal to walk. NONE of it. Brian took them on a good walk, they had fun and their were no problems.”

“My grand pup Axel had an amazing time with Janessa. The whole family took great care of him. He came home completely happy and exhausted. That worked for me because I was exhausted too from my trip. It was his first time boarded at four years old and I was worried. He also has some habits that can make him a challenge sometimes. But in spite of all my trepidation he was really happy and all went so well. He goes back for another 9 days at the end of the month because life just got in the way. I am so happy that I have a place I know he is happy. Thank you Janessa and family”

“Bryan watched Colby over Memorial Day weekend and from the meet and greet I was confident he would be in good hands with a family of dog people. I felt like we were understood and accepted. When I picked him up, Colby was happy to see me but then went back to lounge in their living room, which I feel is a statement that he was content being part of the household and all of his needs were met. He was calm and sleepy when he got home, which is also a good sign that he got the exercise he needed. Thank you so much for taking great care of Colby <3”

“Lexi and Vic are one of a kind! Super accommodating and easy to coordinate with. My dog Finn had a blast running around with their furry friend all week and they sent great updates to let me know how my pup was doing. 10/10 would recommend and will book again!”

“Duque was really happy when I pick him up, so that says a lot of his stay. Alexis was very responsive and sent a lot of pictures of their adventures. Highly recommended!”
“This was my first time using Rover and so I was really excited to try Mariah after seeing her reviews and location. I’m so impressed with our whole experience. From our meet and greet to seeing the boarding and play area it was much better than I expected. I thought it was just perfect and I couldn’t believe our luck. Mariah is thoughtful, well prepared and excellent with dogs. The boarding area is super clean, very organized and well lit. It was almost like leaving Murphy with a family member only better. I would highly recommend her services to everyone. She was a great communicator and kept us updated on Murphy’s activities. I couldn’t imagine a better experience than the one we shared with Mariah. Thanks again.”

“Lexi was fantastic about helping our first-time boarding pup feel safe and calm. She was patient with getting her comfortable and communicated well all throughout our trip, making us confident our pup was in good hands. I would definitely use Lexi again and recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and patient person to trust their pup with!”

“Our experience with Katie and her family was nothing short of incredible. From the meet and greet where Katie listened to all the things that make Wrigley, Wrigley, to sharing what we could expect for him while in her care, to the drop off where they helped ease the goodbye (Wrigs has short-term separation anxiety), to the photos and texts during his stay, to the pickup where Wrigley clearly demonstrated that he was settled and comfortable (it took him a minute for him to even realize I was calling his name b/c he was engaging with Katie), we couldn't have asked for more. They adapted to Wrigley's needs and welcomed him right in. Wrigley came home happy (and wiped out) from his 4 day playdate, and we know where we'll try and send him whenever we need to know that he's getting the same kind of care and love we give him at home. Thank you, Katie and family!”

“Anji was a great sitter for our dog over the weekend. It’s clear she geniunely loves the animals she cares for. She was communicative, responsible, and has such a great space for dogs to play and relax. Thanks and Harvey can’t wait to visit again!”

“Chris was easy to work with and took great care of our dog. He updated us regularly providing pictures on walks and at the dog park. I would definitely book with Chris again.”


“Diana and her kids are wonderful! They last minute helped us out and cared for our silly pup Olive. The boys kept Olive busy and Diana is an excellent communicator. I only wish they lived closer to us. 10/10 would recommend!”

About: I've been surrounded by pets my entire life! From a young age I learned the responsibility, dedication, and care that comes along with pets. I have experience with puppies, adult, and senior dogs, kittens and adult cats, and many small animals including but not limited to guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, tortoises, and sugar gliders. I am comfortable with all walks, feeding, bathing, and oral medication. I have experience with reactive/anxious pets, and know how to give them the space they need to feel comfortable. I own my own business and work from home. My husband works from home and is home all day, so plenty of time for cuddles and attention if we're boarding your fur baby! We live in a quiet neighborhood on a dead end street, with a large fenced in back yard for your pups potty breaks and exercise needs! Pets have free reign and are allowed on furniture and the bed, we treat every pet as if they are our own. We do have our own dog (Enzo) but we live in a two level house, and while boarding I stay completely separated in the downstairs part of the house, and the dogs never see each other. The downstairs has its own entrance/exit direct to the fence in back yard, so it's easy to keep everyone apart! I work a flexible hybrid job, in-office Monday thru Friday from 10am-2pm, and am available any time outside of those hours. My husband works from home and is home all day. We will absolutely make sure your fur baby gets plenty of love and affection! We live in a quiet neighborhood on a dead end street, with a large fenced in backyard. I am familiar with crate training, potty training, and leash training using positive reinforcement. I also have experience with reactive and anxious dogs.

“I felt incredibly confident in Pam the moment I met her. Lucy seemed incredibly happy when I dropped her off and picked her up. I will look for Pam again the next time I need to board Lucy. Thanks Pam!!”


“Erin and her husband were incredible! Lea was loved and spoiled and taken care of like she was family! Our flights back were delayed 2 days and it was such a relief knowing I didn't have to worry about Lea because she was in such good hands. I looked forward to the pictures and videos and it made me feel so connected to her. I couldn't have asked for anyone better to be watching my baby dog.”

“Ashley was awesome! I had major oral surgery and needed him cared for so I could heal without having to worry about my dogs care and she took such good care of my migi and sent me lots of updates and photos in the 6 nights she had him. She was very accommodating as well when we needed to change or do things differently in migi’s favor. Will def book her again in the future! Highly recommend 10/10.”

“Anping took great care of Chief and Chief got spoiled 😉 by multiple walks and got a new doggy friend. Thank you for all the pictures. I am strongly recommend Anping.”

“Jessi was amazing! She was very understanding and flexible when I messed up the drop off time and sent daily updates! I would definitely recommend using her for your fur babies! Finn came back so happy and tired from all the playing!”

“Kari was a wonderful help with Mishka. She was super responsive and went out of her way and made a meal to make sure our finicky eater was well nourished during his stay. Highly recommend her ❤️ Thanks, Kari!”
