“Leaving our fur baby with someone new was hard, but Paige put us at ease at our first meet and greet. Jax seemed to have a blast and was completly wore out when we picked him up after his stay with Paige. I will leave Jax with Paige again, without a doubt. Thanks Paige!”
“My two hounds were cared for, walked, played with, and had another place they can call home. Casey, was communicative and had no issues. Thank you, for taking care of them!”
“Thank for sending so many pictures and keeping us updated! Bucky obviously loves being there and feels comfortable! I still can’t believe he was willing to share his dog bed with your dogs! I love that! I’m glad we have somewhere to take him where he feels that safe!”
“This is the second time we used Jennifer and Jeff and our boy came home healthy and happy. They sent us an update during the day and always communicated quickly. Will absolutely use again!”
“Goldie, being a rescue, is a really anxious and apprehensive dog. Lydia was awesome with her, she has the expertise (being a foster for a rescue) to make the dog feel comfortable and safe. Goldie was really spoiled in her stay, we also ran into a delay in our trip and Lydia was awesome and understanding. I totally recommend her for sitting your dog!!”

“Thank you Amber, for taking on the care of Roxi. We appreciate, dog sitters like you, who jump into action at the last minute, this was Roxi first dog sitting experience, and she seems to be well taken care of. Thank you, from my family to yours!!”
About: I have been taking care of animals for my whole life. I currently own two Ferret, a rat, two dogs, and two cats. I love training dogs I am actually trying to save money to start taking certifications for dog training. I am a disabled human, so I spend almost all day at home able to care for animals. Dogs will go outside to potty every 4 hours unless special instructions are given. My dog Ruger will not be around any male dogs that I watch. I will only accept to watch a dog if the owner also bring their dog a crate, their own toys, and some of the dogs food. I will not accept dogs that have any aggression.

“Wilma and Isabel were absolutely incredible!! One of our dogs is very nervous/scared of other people and they made her feel right at home and comfortable. They sent pictures and updates every day, which was wonderful. I highly recommend them!!!!”
“Can't say enough about how pleases I was with the care and compassion they provided to my dog. They were very responsive to messages and kept me update on Max during his stay with them. Loved the pictures too they sent of Max. Not sure Max wanted to leave and come home with me after his stay with them. Lol. It can be hard to find someone good who will care for a big Doberman but they were great with him. He was right at home with them They have a great outdoor space too.”

“Great experience with Deborah! This was our first time using Rover. Our pup was well cared for. Deborah had a complete report for us at pick up including a couple tips for his picky eating habits. Normally at Kennels our pup is fighting to leave, but not at Debora's. He was happy to see us, but in no hurry to get home, so clean he had a good time. We will definately use Deborah again.”
