“Kim was great with our dachshund. She’s very caring and communicative. She sent photos and updates so we knew our dog was in good hands. Can’t wait to book again when it’s warm for our dog to run around in her fenced backyard!”
“This is the second time we have entrusted Peaches to the care of this wonderful family, and we are just as pleased as the first time—Peaches clearly is as well. We are truly grateful to have found them. Their warmth and attentiveness toward Peaches is remarkable. They are the ideal caregivers anyone could find!!”
“My baby boi loves going to see Tony's family and has been several times. What I love is that Thompson gets excited when we pull up as he wants to go play with his friends. I'll continue to rebook and only great things to say!”
“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”
“We were very happy working with Jacob to board our pup Hudson! We received consistent updates and photos during his stay and Jacob was very quick to respond before/ during his stay. We love seeing the different parts of Hudson’s day indoors/ outdoors/ playing with new friends. We will work with Jacob again!”
“Kim was awesome with Tito. I felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. She kept us updated about his day and responded quickly to my questions. I would not hesitate to use her service again. Thanks Kim!”
“My pet had spent the fantastic days in her house because I felt he didn’t want to go back home with me. I appreciated about what I could get good travel due to her care.”
“Heather took care of our dog Mars for 8 days, and we had such a great experience. She sent updates every morning and evening with lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Mars clearly had the best time playing with the kids, going on walks, and enjoying the backyard. It really felt like he was part of the family. We’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave him and will definitely be booking with Heather and her family again this summer!”
“Valeria is a wonderful dog sitter! She picked up my dog from my cousin’s house nearby and had him while we were traveling overseas. She sent photos of him inside, on walks, and playing. At least 3 a day. She had very specific questions about him and asked permission for types of treats. She was always available to message back and forth about my dog and was very clear about how he spent his days. My dog looked very happy and very well cared-for at her house. I definitely recommend Valeria and will absolutely re-book with her!”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.
“Second time booking. Melissa was super flexible with our last minute overnight trip. We received lots of pictures and updates. We plan to continue to use her! Our dog seems to feel right at home here!”
“Thanks to Rusty, I was at ease traveling for a few days with the dogs in his care. Rusty has a dog-friendly space indoors and out and was attentive to the dogs’ individual personality traits and needs. This was the first time I’ve left them with a sitter and both dogs responded well and appeared comfortable. It’s a huge relief to know that Rusty is available to care for my dogs if I need to be away.”
“Angela is great!!! She sent pictures and updates. There was no need to worry because she kept me posted. Her family treated my furbies as if they were their own and took great care of tbem. I feel like I found them a home away from home. Just hope they are available when i need them.”
“I had a rescue adult dog, I did not know how it was going to go since I had never left her completely alone since I got her 3 years ago. Stella made me feel comfortable with the whole process. I cannot say enough on how pleased I am, from the updates while I was gone, to how well and smoothly everything went. It looks like my dog made some friends during her 9 day visit as she is much more vocal now, letting me know she's the boss!!!! Thank you Stella”
“Sunshine and her kids are amazing! Easy communication and a lot of pictures. Lolla is back home and for the first time she’s not stressed with our absence. I highly recommend Sunshine.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful with my dog Nellie. She is on a few medications and it was no bother for her at all to go that extra mile for Nellie. Elizabeth has 2 wonderful dogs of her own who were very happy to play and entertain my dog. I will definitely use her again and will tell my friends about her as well.”
“Chisato was INCREDIBLE. I was so nervous to leave our rescue dog for an extended vacation. Chisato gave her SO much attention and kept kept me updated at least once a day. Just one day in to the vacation, I already felt at ease and could relax knowing our baby was in great care.”

“Linnea took fantastic care of my cat while we were out of town a couple of days. She was not afraid to ask questions if I had forgotten to mention something and communicated quickly.”
About: I’ve had cats for years and know exactly how to care for them. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, experienced in senior care and meds—and I even enjoy deep-cleaning litter boxes to keep pets healthy, happy, and comfortable in their space.
“Hope was absolutely wonderful and relieved a lot of stress leaving our kitties home for a few days. She had great communication and provided plenty of photos. We could not be happier with the care she provided. She gave us peace of mind on our trip that we got engaged on! Thank you for everything!”
“Declan is an extremely friendly and reliable sitter! He's great with our new kittens and has been very gracious working with us on short notice with our relatively erratic schedule. Would recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!”
“Rosana does a great job managing our asthmatic cat with meds and all. He try’s to run, which he does with us, but she manages to get him and provide him with meds that help. She’s always OnTime and sends reports and pictures. Great job by Rosana. Won’t hesitate to use he again anytime.”
About: I’ve had a cat my entire life, growing up I had 2 family cats and they were nothing short of amazing. In college I decided to get a kitten to keep me company and she has been all over with me including moving 5 times, she is a sassy calico and is about to turn 12. Recently I adopted a kitten, a gift to myself for completing my masters. He is a male tabby and probably one of the most sassiest and hyper cats I’ve ever been around, he defiantly keeps me on my toys requiring lots of play to keep him out of trouble!
“Liz took the best care of our two dogs. One of our dogs is a bit nervous and she was great about the needs of each dog with different personalities. It was our first time to be away during the night without the dogs and they were perfectly fine with Liz making several stops throughout the day. We will definitely ask for Liz to care for our dogs in the future. She’s very good about communicating and prompt with all the requested visits. I highly recommend Liz. She is so nice and professional.”
About: I’m an 18-year-old pet sitter who has grown up caring for animals my entire life, including fish, hamsters, cats, and dogs. I’ve independently managed feeding, cleaning, exercise, and overall care for my pets while balancing school, athletics, and work. Through this experience, I’ve learned to be responsible, attentive, and patient, always making sure animals are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own. I’ve taken care of my neighbors dog during the day or throughout the night, watched my grandparents cats and dogs by stopping by periodically, and brought my friends dog to the groomer and vet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I’ve grown up caring for animals my whole life. On a daily basis, I make time for feeding, fresh water, cleaning, playtime, and monitoring each pet’s behavior and health. Weekly routines include deeper cleaning, grooming, and making sure pets get consistent exercise and attention. I manage this around school and athletics. I care for pets by following a consistent routine that meets each animal’s individual needs, whether in my home or a client’s home. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, and receive plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I carefully follow any instructions provided, including dietary needs, medication, or specific routines, to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. This is just the same as I do at home everyday for my own pets!😊
“Gwen did an awesome job watching our cat, Sulley! They really bonded while we were away — she talked to him, gave him lots of attention, and took great care of all his needs. It was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being, and that made it so much easier to be away. I could tell Sulley was comfortable and happy with her. Highly recommend Gwen if you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and great with animals!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs of many different kinds and have several years of hands-on experience caring for them in addition to caring for my own family dogs. I’ve pet sat for friends and family and have helped care for my roommates puppies since she first came home. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and sticking to each pet’s normal routine. I know every dog has their own personality, so I always take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they have peace of mind. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care throughout the day whether your pet needs morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, and overnight care. I’m more than happy to work with your schedule to meet their needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep the routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I will follow your pets regular schedule for meals, water refills, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any other care instruction you provide. I believe every pet deserves plenty of attention, patience and affection, so I’ll make sure they receive the companionship and exercise they need while you’re away. I also value open communication and will keep you updated with messages and photo so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have owned and cared for animals my entire life, I can't get enough ❤️ I have been a foster mom for 3 different rescues over the past 10 years, helping many different dogs prepare for their adoptions and transition to their new homes. I have experience with different ages, health conditions and personalities. I am very observant and patient, I err on the side of caution as you can never be too safe! Dog sitting is my full time job, so I am able to tend to your pup(s) consistently and provide a clean and safe home environment. Stays are limited to just 4 few spots, in my quiet, spacious home. Pups have unlimited access to my huge fenced in yard, with plenty of new smells and places to explore! I do not crate them unless it is necessary for meal times, rest, etc. They will be treated like family while they are here, with social time as well as one on one attention. If your pup matches with the group, they will have lots of play time to burn off their excess energy too! I will also send pictures and videos, as much as your heart desires, so you can be at ease that your dog is happy while you are away! My business is also privately insured.
“Kaya is very attentive and took great care of my three sassy cats. She responds very quickly and is always available for your needs. Kayla is a great photographer and sent terrific photos and videos that made me feel so at ease on my vacation, knowing that my girls are well cared for.”

“Cassandra is awesome. We are visiting and had no idea what to do with Gordo since we were afraid to leave him in the hotel alone and wanted to make a cubs game. We contacted on short notice but Cassandra responded quickly and took great care of our fur baby.”
“Thank You Kim for your help and guidance. Bailey loves going with you and I do believe she is learning things by you. She is much more calm, relaxed, and attentive. She shares more with her sister since she has been with you and seems to have found her nitch in our family better. You take care of her like family. I can't imagine taking her to anyone else. Thank You Again Kim for being there for Bailey and us :-)”
About: Hi! I'm Valeria, a freelance designer and proud parent of two mid-sized adopted dogs, aged 6 and 7 years. I adore caring for animals and find true happiness in their company. My dogs bring so many wonderful moments to my life, and I deeply understand the importance of giving them the attention and care they need. I'm also passionate about all sizes of dogs and cats. In addition, my hobby is horse riding, so I'm learning how to take care of horses as well. I’m currently working part time so I will be happy to take care about your wonderful pets! It’s a pleasure for me to spend time with animals! I will focus on the individual and distinct needs of each animal. I firmly believe that every pet is unique and deserves personalized care. By adhering to the specific requirements set by owners, I aim to ensure that each pet feels exceptional and cared for, making their experience wonderful
About: I'm an energetic person who enjoys being with dogs. I pay close attention to detail and I am always willing to engage in activities to keep your dog busy but I also know dogs need some down time as well. I stay at home full-time so I will be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and play time in the backyard. I am currently a dog daddy to a Chihuahua named Lucy. She'll be 1 years old on November 1st. She's very loving and friendly dog. I have 7 years of experience. I don't mind taking your dogs or puppies out for walks instead of just staying in the backyard. I will take good care of your beloved pets as if they were my very own.
“Melissa was an amazing host! She was super responsive and very attentive to my pups special needs. So grateful for sitters like Melissa who really care for your pet like their own. 10/10 would reccomendo and will book again!”
“Ashley and her family are amazing. She keeps me informed with how the day is going and is very welcoming. She is so flexible and willing to follow your dog’s schedule. She sends pictures daily which is awesome to see. When I drop Willis off at her house, he is so excited when she opens the door and loves to see her. I am so glad we found her and will continue to use her as long as we need puppy care. Thanks for everything you have done and are doing!!!! <3”
“Kim is patient and loving and Frankie enjoyed his long walk and time playing in the large fenced in yard. We are so happy that we found Kim to watch our puppy when we have family outings. Thank you so much!”
About: My husband I both grew up with golden retrievers and have a soft spot for them. When I was first out on my own and bought my first home, I rescued a pit bull and she was with me until she passed. My husband, sons and I are all dog lovers and would love to welcome your dog into our home. My husband is home full time and I work from home and we are anxious to care for your pet! We have 2 sons - ages 6 and 10, so kid-friendly dogs are a must. We are available any day of the week at any time, unless we have something specific planned (which is not often). Please feel free to ask about specific dates and times and I will be sure to add you to my calendar! My husband is home full time and I work from home so we have ample amounts of time to care for your pet. My 2 sons LOVE dogs and love to play and take dogs on walks. Our yard is unfenced, per our HOA rules so your pet will always be on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. Pets are free to explore the entire home and will not be crated or gated, unless a crate is provided and requested.
“Byron was very responsive and great at easing Bear's separation anxiety after I dropped him off. Bear even ate his dinner, which he rarely does at a new place. Will definitely use again!”
About: We've been bully breed pet owners for years, and I'm comfortable with pups of all sizes and ages. I've been hosting dogs, doing at-home visits and sharing lots of pup love for friends and neighbors for quite a long time. I'm currently working from home, and could easily fit day-time walks and at-home visits into my schedule. Feel free to let me know if your pup/s could use a day-time potty break, or even a quick walk to get their energy out! I have a fenced in yard at my home and space for a dog crate if needed. I'm comfortable with both small and large breed dogs, and would welcome opportunities to come visit your pup/s during the day to help stretch my legs, and theirs.
“Our dog gets so excited when she sees we’re taking her to “Tía Lorena’s house!” Lorena and her family are so lovely and welcoming, and we always pick up a tired, happy dog at the end of the day.”

“Brianna has been such a blessing for our 6 month old mini-dachshund, Murphy! She is helping us to continuously socialize him with other dogs, cats, and kids…You can feel her passion and positive energy and can tell she loves what she does IMMEDIATELY when you meet her! Not only is Murphy happy and excited to spend time with her and her family but she sends us pictures of all the positive interactions and moments they have during the day! 6 out of 5 stars!”
About: I got my first dog (fox terrier) at 10 and was primarily responsible for his needs until I went to college. He lived to be 11 and I loved those 10 years with him so much. During high school and college until COVID started, I pet sit several dogs and a few cats. Then I adopted a retired racing greyhound when COVID started and adopted a rescue great dane in fall 2023. I would describe myself as consistent, adaptable, respectful, confident, observant, and caring. I am very understanding to the fact that every dog has different needs and that every owner has their own rules/training styles. I am an experienced dog handler. When I adopted the rescue great dane, he was completely untrained with very dangerous and challenging behaviors. I worked with 3 different trainers, took him to a group obedience class, and researched as much as I could to train him to be the good dog I knew he could be. After almost a year of rigorous training, he has been able to become an amazing well behaved dog. I am completely open to taking care of any breed, size, age, and personality. I will not shy away from or turn down taking care of the "difficult" dogs, or puppies, or senior dogs with many medical requirements. All dogs are great and deserve great care while their human is away! Last Updated: 7/9/2025 ***I live in a neighborhood off of Route 45 and Sterns School*** WALKS AND DROP-INS - Reoccurring bookings: Mon-Wed/Fri-Sun 11:30 a.m.-7:00 p.m.; Thu 1:00-7:00 p.m. - One-time bookings: Can be outside of the above times if needed, but confirm with me first. ***A DISCOUNTED WALK RATE IS AVAILABLE DURING ALL BOARDING, HOUSE SITTING, AND DAYCARE BOOKINGS*** - 30 min walk per day = $10 (usually $20) - 15 min walk per day = $5 HOUSE SITTING: I am available to stay with your pet in your home any night and day of the week almost 24/7. I have a few re-occurring weekly dog walks so I would need to be gone for a few hours midday usually. BOARDING: Your dog can stay overnight at my house any day of the week, provided that they are a small breed, well-behaved, and okay with large dogs.* DAYCARE: Your dog can stay at my house any day of the week provided that they are a small breed, well-behaved, and okay with large dogs.* - Re-occurring bookings: preferred drop off is 9 a.m. or later, pick up anytime is fine - One-time bookings: drop off can be earlier than 9 a.m. if needed, just confirm with me first, pick up anytime is fine --- *My greyhound is 9 y.o., 70 lb. and my great dane is 4 y.o., 140 lb. My great dane LOVES small, well-behaved dogs, but still struggles a bit with medium/large dogs. I am working to resolve this and will be able to accommodate those sizes for boarding/daycare in the future! ^If I house sit for you and you have a medium/large dog that cannot be left alone or does not like other dogs, I can still bring them to my house and crate my dogs in the other room! I will always uphold any rules/training style you have for me and your dog no matter what service I am providing. I am receptive to feedback and will always keep you informed about how my time is going with your dog and will always ask questions in order to take the best care of your dog. HOUSE SITTING: I am okay with multidog homes. I will leave your house the way you had it when you leave and I can get your mail/packages/put your trash cans out and back in as well. I can take care of other animals you have as well while you are gone. BOARDING/DAYCARE: Safety and peace of mind is of utmost importance for me. Since I have 2 large dogs already, I can only take one dog at a time. (Caveats: If an emergency, I could take a second dog; if you have two well-behaved small dogs, that might be okay too - just ask me). The greyhound is very chill and is great with any well-behaved dog. The great dane is fine with well-behaved small dogs. I will always take it slow on leash when introducing the dogs to each other and then they will always be supervised when together. Only other pets I have are fish. I have no kids. I keep the house very clean and doors to rooms/bathrooms closed so no way of getting in to things they shouldn't! I have a decently sized fenced backyard. There is a few feet of the fence that is higher off the ground so if I can keep small dogs on leash when they go out. I can also take them out by themself if necessary. I live in a 4 bedroom house with a basement so plenty of room in case the dogs need a break from each other or need to play separately from each other. Additionally, the great dane is extremely well crate trained and has an upstairs and downstairs crate that can be utilized. If I had to leave for some reason while your dog is staying at my house (which I rarely do, all dogs would be separated (by crate or being in a different room). You can bring their crate and/or I have an extra crate as well. All dogs can sleep in the bedroom but not on the bed!
“Rusty has a wonderful, gentle way with dogs. Mine is an anxious, large 8 month old puppy. She warmed up to him right away and ran around in the large gated backyard, along with going to walks. I will definitely book with Rusty again and recommend him to everyone.”
“Pluto had a great time with Sunshine and her family! She was very accommodating with our scheduling needs and sent lots of thoughtful updates and photos through the day.”

I’m more than happy to work with your schedule to meet their needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep the routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I will follow your pets regular schedule for meals, water refills, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any other care instruction you provide. I believe every pet deserves plenty of attention, patience and affection, so I’ll make sure they receive the companionship and exercise they need while you’re away. I also value open communication and will keep you updated with messages and photo so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have worked professionally in the dog care industry for 3 years as a Doggy Daycare Attendant and Professional Dog Bather. During that time, I have cultivated skills that include puppy and senior canine care, administering topical and oral medications, and assisting physically disabled pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am happy to tailor my care to the specific requirements a pet parent has described. I am available 9 am-6 pm, Tuesday through Saturday, every week for drop-in visits, walks, and playtimes. My schedule will be updated if and when my responsibilities change. I am happy to follow specific instructions in your home and on your property when taking care of your pet. Please let me know if you'd like shoes removed at the door, rooms to remain unaccessed, where you would like pets kept once I leave the premises, and any other important details about your home and pet.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to walk through the door… Kind caring compassionate. The dogs love her she treats them with such tender loving care… I had hesitated to do this and now I think it’s the best decision I’ve made regarding the dogs in a long time — I need the help. Jessica is great at what she does. She takes it very seriously she worked her tail off no pun intended she’s flexible and we love her!”

“This is the second time we have entrusted Peaches to the care of this wonderful family, and we are just as pleased as the first time—Peaches clearly is as well. We are truly grateful to have found them. Their warmth and attentiveness toward Peaches is remarkable. They are the ideal caregivers anyone could find!!”
“My baby boi loves going to see Tony's family and has been several times. What I love is that Thompson gets excited when we pull up as he wants to go play with his friends. I'll continue to rebook and only great things to say!”
“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”
“Kim was awesome with Tito. I felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. She kept us updated about his day and responded quickly to my questions. I would not hesitate to use her service again. Thanks Kim!”
“Heather took care of our dog Mars for 8 days, and we had such a great experience. She sent updates every morning and evening with lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Mars clearly had the best time playing with the kids, going on walks, and enjoying the backyard. It really felt like he was part of the family. We’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave him and will definitely be booking with Heather and her family again this summer!”
“Valeria is a wonderful dog sitter! She picked up my dog from my cousin’s house nearby and had him while we were traveling overseas. She sent photos of him inside, on walks, and playing. At least 3 a day. She had very specific questions about him and asked permission for types of treats. She was always available to message back and forth about my dog and was very clear about how he spent his days. My dog looked very happy and very well cared-for at her house. I definitely recommend Valeria and will absolutely re-book with her!”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.
“Second time booking. Melissa was super flexible with our last minute overnight trip. We received lots of pictures and updates. We plan to continue to use her! Our dog seems to feel right at home here!”
“Thanks to Rusty, I was at ease traveling for a few days with the dogs in his care. Rusty has a dog-friendly space indoors and out and was attentive to the dogs’ individual personality traits and needs. This was the first time I’ve left them with a sitter and both dogs responded well and appeared comfortable. It’s a huge relief to know that Rusty is available to care for my dogs if I need to be away.”
“Angela is great!!! She sent pictures and updates. There was no need to worry because she kept me posted. Her family treated my furbies as if they were their own and took great care of tbem. I feel like I found them a home away from home. Just hope they are available when i need them.”
“I had a rescue adult dog, I did not know how it was going to go since I had never left her completely alone since I got her 3 years ago. Stella made me feel comfortable with the whole process. I cannot say enough on how pleased I am, from the updates while I was gone, to how well and smoothly everything went. It looks like my dog made some friends during her 9 day visit as she is much more vocal now, letting me know she's the boss!!!! Thank you Stella”
“Sunshine and her kids are amazing! Easy communication and a lot of pictures. Lolla is back home and for the first time she’s not stressed with our absence. I highly recommend Sunshine.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful with my dog Nellie. She is on a few medications and it was no bother for her at all to go that extra mile for Nellie. Elizabeth has 2 wonderful dogs of her own who were very happy to play and entertain my dog. I will definitely use her again and will tell my friends about her as well.”
“Chisato was INCREDIBLE. I was so nervous to leave our rescue dog for an extended vacation. Chisato gave her SO much attention and kept kept me updated at least once a day. Just one day in to the vacation, I already felt at ease and could relax knowing our baby was in great care.”
About: My husband I both grew up with golden retrievers and have a soft spot for them. When I was first out on my own and bought my first home, I rescued a pit bull and she was with me until she passed. My husband, sons and I are all dog lovers and would love to welcome your dog into our home. My husband is home full time and I work from home and we are anxious to care for your pet! We have 2 sons - ages 6 and 10, so kid-friendly dogs are a must. We are available any day of the week at any time, unless we have something specific planned (which is not often). Please feel free to ask about specific dates and times and I will be sure to add you to my calendar! My husband is home full time and I work from home so we have ample amounts of time to care for your pet. My 2 sons LOVE dogs and love to play and take dogs on walks. Our yard is unfenced, per our HOA rules so your pet will always be on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. Pets are free to explore the entire home and will not be crated or gated, unless a crate is provided and requested.
“This was my first time leave my dog Bruce anywhere other than my house. He can be a little anxious, so we were nervous to do this, but gave it a shot considering all the positive reviews Dee had. Dee updated us several times a day with messages and pictures/ videos of Bruce, which helped us relax because he looked happy at her house. Dee was very responsive to messages when we replied and we will be booking again for future trips if she is available!!”
