“Maura and Lauro took wonderful care of our dog ZuZu. It was apparent that they have much experience with dogs. ZuZu enjoyed her time and we will definitely use them again.”


2. David R.

“Dave and Cait have been watching my pups now For well over a year and a half and it’s been a minute since I’ve given them a review. They are 5 star, all day, every day! My pups are loved, cared for, and happy when they are there, and tired when they come home and that makes dog momma heart happy!!! They are always accommodating when I have last minute schedule changes and also when I need to have them stay overnight!! I also get regular pictures and behaviour updates and those are so appreciated as well! If you live in Columbus or any small surrounding town, and you need your dog to learn to be social with other dogs or you just want them to have more play time, I highly recommend Dave!!! Rebecca”

“You two were Awesome! Thank you so much for taking such great care of Ruger. He had a blast and he wants to come back there! After the meet & greet on Friday, when we pulled into your driveway for dogsitting on Saturday, he remembered where he was again and we could hardly control him getting out of our truck to get into your place......he was so excited to come there🤣. Again, a BIG Thanks and see you again soon! Brian & Linda P.S. He's still worn out from playing all day there🤪😁”

“Drew is incredible. Our 11 month old Bernese absolutely loves spending his days with Drew. We recently had a baby and need some extra hands/love/attention for puppy. He is patient (must be to put up with our Lenny some days) and super easy to work with. We are so grateful to have found Drew, and Lenny is too!”

7. Gilian S.

“Gillian is great! Great with ou one year old puppy! Great communicator! Marley loves her and loves going to day care with Gillian and the other pups!”




8. Ruby A.


“Our pups had the best time! I’m actually jealous! ? Ruby was friendly, clearly an animal lover (the best people are!), and extra great about sharing photos. The boys are already begging to return!”


9. Hope R.
“Hope’s daycare is wonderful! We have a very energetic rescue border collie mix who can be nervous and shy in new situations. Hope’s daycare has been amazing for him. Not only does he love it there, but he comes home nice and tired from lots of happy play time. We’ve had frustrating situations at other daycares where they didn’t understand he could be easily frightened. Hope is patient and always kind. We can tell he’s a happy pup when he gets home. Hope always communicates so well (I may be one of those overprotective pup parents always texting!). I know Hope cares as much about the pups in her care as she does for her own. We have a vacation coming up later this year and she’s going to be watching all three of our pups for two weeks and I’m thrilled about it. I know they’ll all have a great time!”


10. Haley K.

“This is the 2nd time Haley has watched Pancho and I always feel at ease knowing he’s in good hands. She’s kind, reliable, and sends updates which I really appreciate. I can tell he has a great time every visit! I highly recommend. Thank you Haley, we appreciate you.”


11. Emily K.

“Emily was great with Remy! Very nice and responsive to messages. Looking forward to booking again soon!”


12. Tony D.

“Wow! Our Bernese Mountain dog, Rosie, had a wonderful day with Tony! He has a beautiful clean home and a fenced backyard that is perfect for dogs. A five star day! We will be using Tony again.”


13. Julie D.


“Julie was very friendly and accepted our booking late the night before we needed her to look after our dog. She took great care of Truffles and sent us plenty of photos throughout the day.”


14. Suellen A.

“Suellen did a great job understanding our puppy and her need to get adjusted to new surroundings and pets. Good job with feeding, pics and walks.”


15. Mandy K.
About: I have had animals my whole life and love every kind. I look after family and friends animals when they are away, I am open to any type of animal. My girls love helping me when it's time to take care of our animals whether it's feeding, scooping poop or litter, and feedings. Most of all they love snuggles I work from home during the week and my job is very flexible. I am open to help 6am to 8pm daily. Not a ton of notice needed. My husband has a service dog as he is a disabled veteran. We have 3 kiddos and they love animals and taking care of them! They may on occasion join me to learn good work ethics. If that's not ok, no worries just let me know.

17. Rebekah & Alex N.

“I'm thrilled I found this family to take care of my chocolate lab. Came to Madison for a wedding looking to find someone to wear out my dog. I sure did find great family. They have nice size property for her to run around, toys , and a bonus kiddie water pool. I picked her up and she fell asleep right away before we made it too the hotel. Thank you. I will use them again whenever I'm back in Madison.”
