Amanda was fantastic—super attentive and clearly cared about our pup’s safety and happiness. She made sure to play with him and kept a close eye so he didn’t eat anything he shouldn’t in the yard. We’d absolutely book again!

Cynthia did a fantastic job taking care of my cat! She made sure she always had water, a clean litter box, and a little play time. She updated me with each visit and gave a thorough report card to let me know how things were going. I would definitely recommend Cynthia as a cat sitter and book her for future trips.

Danyelle is AMAZING!!! Took such great care of my boys over a holiday. Gave me daily updates and even put up with some of their eating "quirks", which isn't always easy. But she was super patient with them and gave them all the love they needed while I was gone. I was so super happy and relaxed to know they were in such great and caring hands. Heck, even just the trek to my trash can for litter box cleaning was an extra effort in and it's self. Can't recommend Danyelle enough!

Damacia did a phenomenal job caring for our cat while we were away. The brief daily posts helped reassure us, and we were really able to enjoy our trip! Our kitty clearly loves Damacia, who seems to have quite a gift with animals. Fantastic!

Absolutely amazing! My dog is not always good with strangers but she loved them immediately. They were so great with her. They responded to messages quickly and listened to any pet requests. It was a 20/10 experience. I’d 100% recommend them to anyone who needs their pet watched or walked. They’re amazing people!

About: I've raised dogs my whole life. Everything from cocker spaniels to a golden retriever. I recently upped the difficulty by training our puppy to be a service animal. Happy to play, cuddle, or just let them have a quiet place to settle. I have no problems taking care of your baby. While I'm newer to cats my partner has fostered kittens to elderly cats and is passing on their knowledge. I am currently full time at home so I have a very open schedule to help your fur baby with all those difficult times when you can't be with them. Your home and your fur baby will be treated with complete respect. I understand that I am being trusted with one of your most precious possessions.

About: ***To ensure I can give your pup my full attention upon arrival, please note that I will be welcoming new boarding stays on Fridays beginning at 4:00 PM. Thank you.*** Animals have been the heartbeat of my life since I was six years old. Having recently said goodbye to my own soul-dog, Sherlock, after 13 beautiful years, I carry a deep reverence for the bond we share with them. I know that for a dog, a walk isn't just exercise—it’s the highlight of their day and a chance to explore the world. Your pup will enjoy the heart of my home in a dedicated, rug-free kitchen area—perfect for staying cool and keeping things tidy. When it’s time for some excitement, they’ll have full access to my fenced-in yard for supervised 'sniff-ventures' and outdoor play! When your pup stays with me, they aren't 'guest pets'; they are family. My home is a sanctuary where they can feel safe, seen, and truly loved. I offer dedicated kennel spaces as an optional 'den' for dogs who feel more secure sleeping in their own spot. However, I follow your lead on what makes your pup most comfortable, as my main goal is to ensure they feel safe and loved throughout their stay. Please note: ****To ensure the highest quality of dedicated care during my primary service window, stays booked from Friday (starting at 4:00 PM) through Sunday evening reflect a premium weekend rate. This allows me to focus exclusively on your pup’s needs during these high-demand, shorter-duration stays**** I am fully dedicated to your pup’s care every weekend! My boarding services begin Fridays at 4:00 PM and run through Sunday evening, allowing me to focus 100% on "pet mode" once my workday ends. **Multi-Dog Households: I can accommodate 2–3 pups—please message me to discuss customized pricing. **Holidays: I am available to book additional weekdays if they connect to a weekend stay. Your Pet's safety is my #1 priority. I offer a secure, fenced-in yard for potty breaks and play. Because my fence stands at 3 feet, I take extra care with athletic dogs. If a guest shows a tendency to jump or climb, I simply transition them to a long leach during yard rotations so they can stay active and safe without any risk wintering off. You can rest easy knowing I am right there with them every step of the way.

Peyton fed our cat every night for four nights while we were away on vacation. Our cat is typically very shy and will hide when there are strangers around, but she trusted Peyton! We were sent photos of her every night with updates on how she was doing. I will definitely be booking her services again in the future!

My Leah always takes some time getting comfortable with people. That said, Le’Yana listened and used all my tricks and suggestions to help Leah become at ease with her visits. I can always tell when Leah is happy with her visit by her behavior when I get home…and Leah is happy! Le’Yana has been a joy and I receive lots of pics and updates🙂

Kiera was wonderful. She bonded quickly with Cary and she would greet Kiera at the door with her “purr engine” humming. I really appreciated the pictures that she sent. I highly recommend Kiera. Her love of all animals is quite apparent. I don’t often leave on trips, but Kiera is at the top of my list when I do. Five stars. Would hire again.
