“Dwayne wasn’t a stranger after long. I only ever left my labs with friends, family or the trainer. After moving across the country I needed to find the new family friend for my fur monsters. Dwayne asked great questions got comfortable and took amazing day and overnight care of my dogs. Super communicative and kept me updated while I was out of town. Happy to have found him for my doggy support.”
“Avery is the best! Henry warmed up to her immediately, and they had bonded nicely by the time I returned home. I will definitely be utilizing Avery’s services in the future! I highly recommend her.”
“Jamie was great and very easy to work with. She was on time and clearly got along with Zelda and was communicative throughout the booking process and during the day where she dog-sat. Zelda was in a good mood when I got home and clearly enjoyed the company.”
“Anissa is amazing! Very reliable and made things so easy for us. It had been years since someone other than family watched our dogs, but Anissa quickly put all anxiety at ease. Our fur babies and home were very well cared for while we were away.”
“Emily did a great job with my puppy while I was away. He is a lot of work but she was able to make the best of it! I felt so bad she had to put up with a chirping smoke alarm at my house while I was gone, but she survived that as well!”
“Emma did a great job. We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. She did a great job communicating with us and took the time to really get to know our dogs. We will continue to use Emma in the future.”
“Ashley is truly amazing. We had never left our babies with anyone before and she made all of our worries disappear! She communicated how our babies were doing and sent so many pics! Our babies were loved and well cared for and we couldn’t be happier!”
“Lexie was incredible! She not only watched our dogs for the day and night, but also drove them to our wedding across town so they could be in our wedding photos! Lexie was so kind and incredibly gracious when I forgot to leave her a key, and had to have someone run it out to her. I don’t trust a lot of people to watch my dogs, but I will absolutely be keeping Lexie in mind for the future!”
“Such an amazing sitter! Dee was extremely attentive to our dog and followed her routine to a Tee. She even went out of her way to take her to the nearby dog park to get some extra exercise! Would 100% recommend!!”
“Julia did a great job! We were away for 5 days, and our dogs were happy and well fed when we returned. The house was cleaned and she checked in with pictures to let us know that everything was going well.”
About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember. My dad used to help help run a rescue for several years, and we had many dogs of varying breeds and ages in our home. I currently have one dog named Alvin who was born in 2022. He is a yellow lab with a lot of energy! I am venturing into the working world, and this is my only role. My availability is wide open and I'm willing to help when needed! I have a small fenced in area under our deck where my dog relieves himself. I go for walks and there is a dog park very close to the house. My dog has extreme crate anxiety, so he isn't created. I am comfortable helping to ensure your pet is created as necessary.
“Leah B spent the week watching our dog. When we returned our house was exactly as we we left it. Our dog was happy to see us, but we could tell that she was well taken care of. Leah updated us with many pictures of their time together. I would definitely recommend Leah to stay at your home and watch your pet. Thank you!”

This was our first time using Theresa and it was a great experience. She came and met our babies prior to using her and was thorough with her questions. We had her for a night stay at the house. She provided pictures and updates throughout the stay. She went above and beyond our expectations. We will definitely be using Theresa again!
Jess was absolutely amazing with our pit mix pup!! She sent such prompt updates and kept us in the loop our whole travel really putting our minds at ease!! Not to mention when we had a travel fiasco getting home she was willing to pop by to let our sweet girl out to potty one more time on short notice!!! 🥹🤍🫶🏻
It had been a while since Leah had come and stayed with our pups and we were happy to have her back while away for the weekend. We can’t recommend her enough. If you want to return to happy dogs, a clean house and have someone who is proactive with communication and loves to send pics, she’s your gal!
AMAZING!! Kimberly is so sweet and her passion for our babies is genuine❤️ Our Henry is just a pup so he needs lots of extra attention, not just with play but also obedience training. Kimberly is so patient with him and treats him just like you would a young toddler. She loved on him, had lots of fun & snuggles, and communicated with text update & pictures. We will definitely be seeking her out again! Thank you, Kimberly, for allowing us an stress-free date night! I had no concerns leaving our boy with you!!
Connor stayed for 10 days with our large friendly dog and three cats. He did a fantastic job. Iur animals are admittedly a bit spoiled but Connor made sure that he understood their needs and took very good care of them. They were all relaxed and clearly liked him by the way they interacted with him even after we got home. He sent a nice photo and check in to us every day of our trip and made sure to ask questions and permissions about the pets’ care. We usually only leave our pets with family so this was a big deal for us. We will definitely use Connor in the future!
