“Brooke and her family were excellent and I would highly recommend her. Her 3 boys were so gentle and loving to Bentley. They kept us informed of what and how he was doing and it gave us such peace of mind. Bentley just fit right into their family and it seemed like he had a great time there. We will definitely be booking with Brooke again in the future. ”


“Traveling from out of town this past weekend for a wedding, we searched for a last minute boarding stay for our Boston Terrier, Ruby, and contacted Madeline. Even though she requested a week notice, she had availability and was open to boarding Ruby for the night. Madeline was quite patient with Ruby getting aquatinted to the new surroundings. During Ruby’s stay, Madeline provided photos and updates; which gave us the peace of mind during the family wedding festivities. After picking Ruby up, we can confidently recommend Madeline to others. Thank you again, Madeline for watching Ruby!”


“Alyssa and her family were wonderful with Winston. They loved him as if he was theirs. She spoiled him and sent pictures everyday which we appreciated. He went on adventures, walks, and slept on their couch with her husband while he watched TV. He was well loved and we could asked for a better family to care for him while we were away. She and her family are awesome.”


“Krista was wonderful and treated our little guy like he was part of their family! She has a wonderful backyard for your pet to play and explore, and we wouldn't hesitate to enlist her help in sitting Thirsty in the future and highly recommend her!”


“With having an older dog that suffers with anxiety it’s hard to find someone to watch her. Judith and George were absolutely fantastic with her. She thrived at their house and I plan on using them again for when we go on vacations.”


“Pamela took excellent care of my little old man, Watson! She was so kind and gentle with him, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“We suddenly needed a dog sitter because taking him with us on our camping trip wasn't working out. She agreed to watch lunchbox very last minute which was huge! She was great at communicating with me and sent lots of pictures!”


“Amy and Patrick provided incredible care for our dog Tucker. They updated us with pictures and messages to let us know how he was doing. We look forward to reaching out to them for future times we will need sitters for him and would highly recommend them!”


“Lisa was so excellent! She gave us daily updates about our pup and was always so upbeat and positive. She truly went above and beyond by giving my dog home-cooked food. We will for sure be using her services again.”


“Mark was wonderful sitting our pup Podo. He was so attentive, caring, and made us feel so at ease. He provided so many photos and updates, and Podo seemed so happy to be there. This was his first “weekend away,” as well! We will definitely have Mark sit Podo again for us, and plan to when we go away this October. He is so kind, and truly cares about the animals in his care. Thank you, Mark!!”


“LAUREN AND DOUG ARE THE BEST! It is difficult to be away from my pup for a week, but I know that he is in the greatest care. I get the perfect amount of photos and updates. Whenever he is there, he receives so much love!”


“This was my first time using the app and Jordan made it seamless! She communicated timely and made me feel at ease leaving my baby with her for 5 days. I got pictures and updates throughout my trip and I loved that she was willing to come over and meet us prior to booking. Highly recommended!”



“We have found a home away from home for our dog Dbo! I can't say enough great things about Tracy's homestay kennel. From the beginning Tracy was highly attentive and responsive to our concerns and questions pre-booking (as we have never used a dog sitter or kennel service before). Tracy reassured us and gladly booked a complimentary meet and greet in which we were able to visit her home with our dog and see the setup for her doggy daycare. We were very impressed with the open and homely environment where the dogs could play together or retreat to a separate pen or room if need be. Tracy also has a beautiful and spacious yard where she lets the dogs out to run multiple times a day. We were very excited to take our dog to Tracy's home as we knew he would be in great hands. We were even more impressed when we dropped him off and the following day received pictures and multiple updates of our dog playing with her dogs, other dogs, her children, and seeming as happy as ever! Any pet parent surely knows when their dog is happy seeing the pictures of the huge puppy smile on his face (aka sprawled out on the floor, chew toy in his mouth). We had such peace of mind knowing not only was our dog being well cared for (but he was on his own puppy retreat!) Tracy spares not detail and provides the highest level of love and care to our dog when he stays. Dbo loves going to her home and we will continue to take him there as long as we can reserve a slot (and Tracy's vacancies fill quite fast). Thank you Tracy and family for all you do in taking care of our pup!”


About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—everything from wiggly puppies to wise old seniors. I currently work at a vet clinic, so I’m no stranger to belly rubs, bath time, or giving medications when needed. Whether it’s a dog who loves long walks or a cat who prefers snuggle marathons, I’m here to make tails wag and purrs happen. Your pets will get all the love, care, and attention they deserve (and maybe a few extra treats 😉). While I do work a full time job, I am free all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to care for pets! I’m also available after work to go for walks or just stop in and check on your pets as well. My home does not have a fenced yard, however it is in a private neighborhood with plenty of walking opportunities. I do not have children or any pets of my own at the time, so pets who prefer to be the only pet work great for my lifestyle. I’m very flexible and am a certified rule follower, so if your kiddo prefers to be at home, that works for me as well!

“Sarah and her family are great! Very nice people and I could immediately tell upon meeting them that my puppy would be in good hands while i was on vacation. Sarah sent me pictures and videos of him and how he was doing the whole time and we couldn't be happier with how she took care of him! Would highly recommend and would book again 100%”


“Anthony & Nakia are great! They made me and my dog feel very comfortable and they sent pics during the boarding. You can clearly see their love of dogs. I will definitely be using them in the future.”
