“During the introduction meeting Carolina and her family were all so welcoming and kind and Carolina was obviously on point professionally so I was completely comfortable with leaving Onyx with them. The appointment went very smoothly and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog-sitter.”

“We were so nervous to leave Petey for the first time when we travelled out of the country for a week. Knowing he was in good hands and had plenty of playmates helped to ease our fears. Petey seemed to have enjoyed his time there and we have already booked Steve and Patty for future trips.”

“Ms. Mary truly went above and beyond! She is definitely a “dog person” and manages having several dogs together well. This is the longest I have been away from my dog- about two weeks over the holidays. She sent 2-3 text updates with pictures every day. Her home and backyard are set up like a dog oasis, complete with a doggie deck (low steps and a ramp to get up) for sunbathing! She also gave my dog eyedrops daily and updated me on my dog’s eyes. My only concern was that my dog would want to stay at camp forever!”

Alison P.

“Toby had an amazing time at Alex’s! He was able to explore his big yard at his leisure and also got to do some nice woodland hikes. Alex sent lots of great pictures and updates. Highly recommend.”

“We were extremely pleased with the care and attention that Michelle gave to our dog Dixie. She took great care of our dog and when we came to pick her up, I think Dixie would have been happy to stay longer. The house, the accommodations and the caretaker were perfect for our dog and she was very relaxed when we came to pick her up. Michelle was a very good "fit" for us and Dixie. We definitely would use Michelle again.”

“Dana provided outstanding care for my dog Louie! She was able to send me updates and pictures throughout his stay. I couldn’t ask for a more caring and trustworthy sitter! Thank you!”

Christine M.

“We were so thankful that Kellyanne was available for us last minute, especially since our boy Odin had recently been dealing with a leg injury. She was so accommodating and made sure we were comfortable, as it was also our first time boarding him. Would definitely recommend Kellyanne!”

Danielle S.

“We’ve always had great experiences using Rover however, Luann went above and beyond anything we could ever imagine. Luann shared pictures of our dog on daily walks, car rides and other doggy adventures throughout the day. Luann is a true pack leader.”

“Alexandria was awesome. Easygoing, communicative, flexible and totally capable. We really appreciate her taking care of our sweet pup for the night! He came back happy as a clam.”

“Charlene was wonderful. Sent me photos of my dog throughout his 2 day stay, kept me updated and was very reassuring!! When I went to pick up my dog, they were outside. He had his toy in his mouth, greeted me, and went back inside Charlene’s house! She made it feel like home to him he didn’t want to leave! Can’t wait to see her again. My dog loved it and she made sure I had all my things before going home. Will do day sitting as well. I can’t say enough good things!”

Sophia P.

“Coop had just a fun time! As happy as I was to have him come home, I know he was sad to leave his new friends! It was so cute to see Justin's little girl with his leash walking him!!! Besties for life!! Would recommend Justin and his family to anyone!”

“Shanea is amazing! She took care of our 6 month old picky labradoodle so well. She’s like his second family and had an awesome time. I would trust her to take care of your fur babies like they were her own.”

About: For nearly 20years I’ve been caring for animals of all types. I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Rodents, Reptiles, and just about everything in between. Family, Friends, Neighbors, Co-Workers and Clients have relied on me to care for their furry family members & I’ve had furry family members of my own my whole life. I have worked with all ages and sizes, and am comfortable with pets with disabilities or medical needs. For the past 16years I’ve cared for people with disabilities as a Direct Support Professional. I am currently doing that as a part-time night shift, so I am available most days and eves, during the week and on weekends! I have loved many forms of my own pets and understand the importance of safety and trust that comes with caring for another’s loved one. I currently plan to do pet walking, play dates, and sitting in your home. May consider overnight stays. May consider boarding on case by case basis. Always open for requests, and again, will consider on a case by case basis.

About: I've had dogs my entire life, but really started taking a lot of responsibility for their care around 12. From small breeds to large, I've loved them all! I have experience with behavioral issues, medication administration, seizures, and other medical issues. I'm a stay at home mom of two beautiful disabled children. We have one cat and one dog. I'm always home and available during the day for boarding. We have nice, big yards and we live in a very friendly neighborhood! I'd also love to help take care of your babes on the weekends, evenings, and occasionally during the week! I have an unfenced but spacious yard. Our home has the capacity to keep everyone separated if needed, but lots of room to be together, too! We have plenty of room for a crate, if that's how your sweet babe thrives, but we also support snuggles during sleep, too!

About: I’m a huge animal lover. When I was little, I had a few dogs growing up and was surrounded by my family’s pets as well. I give all animals love and affection. I’m that girl that gets distracted more by dogs than anything else. Your dog is a priority to me. I make sure to walk and keep your pup happy, healthy and well fed. Definitely a few treats on the side. I love taking care of animals and being around them. Dogs and animals alike are like family to me. They deserve all the love in the world. There is plenty of time for me to get out and about with your faithful companion. I will be able to give them long walks and plenty of time to play. In your home, I can play with your dog with their toys and if you have a yard, we can play fetch and lay out in the sun. Here at my home, you can be assured that I will love them just the same, if not more and keep them on their schedules.

“Sheila was amazing! She took great care of my puppy while we were out of town for a week. She had excellent communication, prompt responses and sent daily photos and videos. I loved that our puppy looked like she had a blast! I will definitely be reaching out to Sheila again the next time we go out of town.”
