Laura provided great care for my pup for a couple of days while we were traveling--doing boring people stuff--in her area; we received a happy (and tired) pooch at the conclusion of her stay. Would definitely book again!

Deborah is always great. This is the third time she has watched Harley for us. And even though this was last minute, I only asked her the evening before, she was willing to take him. And he is always happy when I pick him up. Thank you so much Deborah!

Lucinda was able to watch our Nova girl last minute and welcomed her into her home as one of her own. Nova was very comfortable and enjoyed her stay.

About: Growing up on a family farm, I have had the opportunity to care for many different kinds of animals (dogs, horses, cats, chickens, goats, pigs and cows). I have taken care of family and friends dogs for the last 20 years. I have raised 5 puppies and have shown a few of them in local shows. My kids are 10 and 7 and love taking our dogs for walks, hikes and playing with them in our very large back yard. I am home all summer and my school year schedule varies so I have plenty of time to take your pup on walks and play with them. I have a large fenced back yard and 2 pups friendly pups. I have the ability to take your dog to either a paved or dirt trail for walks or runs. My dogs walk 4 to 5 miles a day but I can definitely make the walk shorter if needed. I have the ability to separate the dogs if needed. I can also crate the dogs. Our dogs love to lounge on our couches.

Maria kept in touch and sent pics and videos multiple times each day giving me the peace of mind that our dog was going well while we were on vacation. Her family showed our dog the same love he would receive at home. I managed to mess up our pick-up day but she was understanding and flexible. I highly recommend Maria and will be reaching out again next time we need a sitter.

Couldn't have been better. Evan was super accommodating with our last minute travel plans and answered all questions and texts back very quickly and professionally. He even texted us photos so we could see she was happy and having fun. Will definitely use again.

Scott was awesome. He did an amazing job communicating and letting us know how Zoey was doing. And the best part? It seemed like he was really able to handle her energy, which says a lot!

Jeffrey and Nicole took great care of our dog Beau! Played fetch with him and even took care of an unexpected ear infection right before we left. They sent us updates just the right amount. We will definitely use them again!

Taitum was the perfect sitter for my Svenny! She sent me photos and updates throughout the weekend which gave me such a peace of mind! Sven came home tired and happy so I know he was well taken care of all weekend. Taitum’s puppy was the perfect play mate for Sven as well!

Patty was great to work with and always prompt with responses. I appreciate the updates and pictures. I let her know I have a nervous dog and she was open to a meet and greet and asked what would help my dog to be comfortable while he was with her. Will use her again. Thanks Patty!!

Couldn't ask for a better house to leave my girl at. She had a blast with Juno (the house pup) and the constant updates gave us peace of mind. Thank you Brianna. We will definitely leave our girl with you any time we need to.

Shelly and her family were great hosts for our 2 dogs - they quickly worked out that one needed activity and one just needed love. We received lots of pics and informative updates, and really hope we have the opportunity to have our dogs stay again. Thank you so much!
