“Stewart was able to accommodate us last minute for a few hours of doggie daycare while we met up with old high school friends in Ottuma. Stewart and his dog, Sophie were both great. Stewart sent pictures and had a large fenced back yard and a lot of toys for Maddie to play with. Callie felt at home and cuddles on Stewart with Sophie while Maddie napped among the toys LOL. THANK YOU Stewart for making us feel comfortable and taking great care of our babies.”
“Alyssa was the best sitter I could’ve asked for! I have an anxious pup that doesn’t like being left alone and she ensured he was comfortable during his whole stay. She sent me plenty of updates with pictures and videos and made me feel comfortable the whole stay. She treated Bandit like one of her own and he had a great time playing, cuddling, and sleeping with her! She even took him for a car ride with a pup cup for a treat. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica was amazing with our Golden! She was also willing to bring our dog to our wedding venue nearby so we could get some pictures with him. Highly recommend her!”
“Ali was so great with our dog! She was flexible and easy to work with and made sure she knew a lot about our dog’s routines before our trip. We loved knowing he was being well taken care of while we were gone! We would highly recommend her and plan to check with her again the next time we’re gone! You and your pets will love her too!”
About: I have owned, bathed, walked, and taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! Our pets are such a big part of our family and I hope you can trust me with your sweet babies while you’re away! I’ve been a stay at home mom for 5 years and have tons of time on my hands to care for some sweet furry friends! I’d be happy to care for your sweet furry friends just about anytime during the year! We live on a farm with TONS of space for exercise! And we just built a new home with plenty of space inside for our new furry friends to come visit and stay with us! Inside our home we have a sweet miniature schnauzer! She is great with other dogs but can also be separated from other dogs if needed 🥰 Our dog, Millie is up to date on all shots/immunizations!
About: I worked at a Vet Clinic for five years where I worked with dogs of all ages. My specialty was senior dogs. I consider myself patient and loving. I’m currently in between being done with my masters degree and looking for a new job with my degree. I’m taking a break between now and then so I have plenty of time to provide services ! I have one dog who is very friendly to other animals. I have one cat who is very independent and will not be a bother to any other friends.
About: I’ve had dozens of people rely on me in the past to care for their dogs - walking, dog park, baths, feed - I’ll do it all! I currently work full time from the comfort of my home with my 6 little loves. I’m available mornings & evenings for drop ins but can do mid day as well! My go-to is taking pups to the dog park whether that’s alone or with friends to let them explore and have fun! We enjoy the outdoors so our pups love hiking, swimming, and playing fetch!!
