“Always have excellent care and communication with Beth! Rosy is right at home with them and we never have to worry about her while we’re away - best care for our pampered pup!”


“If you want to have peace of mind in knowing your pup is in great hands, then book with Brian. He is extremely knowledgeable in dogs and you can tell he cared for our dog like it was his own. It was such a relief leaving our pup with someone with so much experience and knowledge while we were away. Thanks, Brian!”


“Wade is Absolutely an Amazing Person! Our dog, Kasey, immediately took to Wade with kisses and smiles. Kasey gladly bonded with Wade during activities of frisbee catching and more. Wade had Kasey overnight as his guest. Wade followed the feeding instructions perfectly. The next day, they played more activities in Wade's wonderful back yard that is near a beautiful creek and wooded area. The two went on a 5 mile hike later in the day. Kasey again stayed overnight with Wade. Upon pickup, Kasey was just smiling, wagging his tail, and obviously really enjoyed his stay with Wade. Wade deserves more than 5 stars. It's doggie "shangri-la" at Wade's.”


“Excellent! Provided photo updates multiple times a day for the 10 days we were gone. Photos showed her lounging on furniture, going for walks, and enjoying the other dogs. Will use her again!”


“Janel made sure Lake was well taken care of during our weekend visit to DCL! She sent frequent updates/pics and took him on plenty of walks to get his exercise in. She was also very accommodating in letting us pick him up to take him on the boat with us and drop him off afterwards. Great Rover - thanks for watching after Lake!”


“Amber was a great sitter for our two pups. She checked in often with pictures and updates on how they were doing. They had a great weekend in a loving and caring home!”


“Our pup Colt had a great time with Jessica. She has such an accommodating and pet friendly property. Obviously a pro when you meet her, would absolutely recommend for anyone who is in the area!”


“We needed an emergency sitting since our previous solution couldn't address our needs at the last minute. In comes Megan to the rescue! She could not be more pleasant and while our dog isn't necessarily comfortable with strangers, he warmed up to Megan and they were best buddies by the time we picked him up. Would definitely recommend and use her again.”


“Crystal and Jadon are the best! Our dog Ruby just spent a week with them while we were on vacation. Crystal was in touch with us every day sending pictures and videos and letting us know how she was doing. Ruby had so much fun at their house! We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was being cared for so well. We would definitely recommend Crystal and Jadon!!”


“She did great with our cat Smokey! Will definitely book again. She was very understanding of the storm and pick up times being pushed back. Also sent pictures to update us regularly on our boy! Couldn’t be more happy! 10/10 recommend her & we will be back!”



“Brittany was amazing! My dogs took to her instantly and she was very good at keeping in contact and keeping me up-to-date on everything concerning them. 100% would recommend for boarding. We will be returning customers for sure.”


About: I have watched multiple types of dogs including: shih tzu, Yorkies, Pomeranian, lab, poodles, redbones, border collie, boxers, pit bulls, jack Russells, and Chihuahuas. I have bathed, cut hair/ nails, brushed, and given medicine to many dogs. I have fed, watered, walked, ran, and scratched dogs. I have kept multiple dogs overnight, during the day and in the evening. I have taken dogs to the vet, let them out periodically, and just stopped by to give them some attention also! In the end, I really truly do love all dogs and I just want to give them the love and attention they deserve. I have availability through out most evenings from 4pm - 11pm. I could also do some earlier in the morning for a couple hours with enough notice. Weekends I’m fully free. I can also do overnight and then morning drop offs if needed. Or I could keep them at my house during the day and stop by a few times to let them out (I’m right next door)! I will give them food / water / medicine when directed. I will give them treats when deserved or directed. I will take them on walks, play with them, and let them out periodically to use the bathroom. I will give them lots of cuddles and scratches if that’s something they are interested in!

“Michelle was so incredibly wonderful, I honestly feel like I have hit the jackpot with finding her and her husband. My Griff was so happy he didn't even realize I was done. Hands down best experience I have had thus far! Will be a repeat customer!”


About: I have hands-on experience raising and training three dogs of my own, currently aged 2, 3, and 4. I’ve cared for them since they were puppies, handling everything from basic obedience training to daily walks, feeding, grooming, and socialization. I’m a nursing student home for the summer and looking for a fun, active way to earn extra income. I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or some playtime in the yard, your pup will be in good hands! Your pup will be cared for in a safe, loving environment at my home, which has a fully fenced-in yard perfect for play and exercise. Dogs are always supervised and treated like family whether we’re enjoying outdoor time or relaxing inside, your dog will feel right at home.

“Kristina was very open and caring for my fir kids. She sent pics often and was very helpful when my older dog had issues when I was gone. Thanks so much for your care”


About: Hello! I’ve had a dog through my entire life. I have experience with puppies as well as elderly dogs. I also am experience in handling deaf and blind dogs, as my dog has these impairments. I currently work full time while in law school part time. I am available after 4:00pm on weekdays. On the weekends, I can be flexible. Just shoot me a message! I have one small dog who is house trained. We take her for walks around our neighborhood or leash her in the yard. She will remain away from any animals that I would be caring for as she is a very old girl.

About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, I also helped out at our local animal shelter ! I’ll be more than happy to watch your beloved pets !! I’m available throughout the week at anytime ! I do have a main job as a overnight caregiver on the weekends but when your pets are with me they will have my full attention and love ! As I said Pets are family! They deserve respect and love just like us. Your animal will be taken very well care of. I can take your pups on walks and make sure they get the exercise they need !

About: I’ve taken care of cats for a year but I also had a cat growing up. When I did have 2 cats they were my world. I enjoyed every minute when I had them. I’m very passionate about caring for cats. I was working full time at the hospital but I’m free every day Monday-Friday until I get the job that I want but after I get that job I’m still available I don’t have a fenced back yard but my neighbor is a pet friendly environment. I’m near a park that is safe for animals as well.
