Pet owners are often faced with the dilemma of what to do with their pets when traveling away from home. Or you might find yourself out of the house for more hours than you pet can handle.  You just need someone to come in and visit for a time. 

If you are like most pet owners, you either board your pet or arrange for friends and neighbors to take care of your pet while you're away. However, transporting your pet to a kennel can be inconvenient, and friends may not provide the level of care your pet requires. In addition it is often uncomfortable and awkward to impose on friends and family. It is also commonly known that pets do better in their own environment.

Our service provides your dog, cat, birds and other pets the care they need while you're away -- right in your own home! With us, you are assured reliable and responsible service. Your pets will: 

   *stay in their own familiar surroundings  
   *follow their customary routines 
   *receive loving individual attention 
   *avoid stress

Even if you are not leaving home, there may be instances where we can be of service. Unusual working hours or lengthy illnesses may make it difficult to care for your pet. When those times arise, your pet sitter is just a phone call away, ready to provide assistance.

About Us:

Hi, I'm Debbie,
I have had a great love and appreciation  for animals since I was a little girl.  It is my belief that the pets we bond with are gifts on loan to us from Heaven, and they are assigned to us to be our special companions in order to teach us about God's perfect and unconditional love.  It's no coincidence that "Dog" spelled backwards is "God"!  I had two Jack Russell Terriers, Spartacus & Cinnamon. Sadly, on February 6, 2008 I had to have Spartacus put to sleep due to illness.   He was an adorable white and brown-eared Pudding Jack Russell who had the most amazing white eye lashes.  Although  between him and Cinnamon,he was the most stubborn, he was my first and a wedding gift from my husband.  Having to let go of him after only 6 1/2 years was devastating.  He had alot of personality and feared nothing!  A friend of mine described him as a "little toughie" and said she could envision him wearing a white tee-shirt with a pack of cigarettes rolled up  in the sleeve.  I now spend alot more time with Cinnamon because I know he's missing Spartacus as well.  It has always been a goal of mine to work with amimals and I am looking forward to the opportunity to meet you and your special companions and to provide loving care to them when you are away from home.


Hi, I'm Leah
There was a time as a little girl that I wanted to be a veternarian.  I couldn't think of anything better than being with animals all day.  Unfortunately, that never happened.   But that didn't squelch my love of animals.  Over the years I have helped neighbors by taking care of their animals while they were away.  I have also had my own assortment of cats, dogs, birds, turtles, gerbils, etc.  This past February we had to have our 13 year old Cocker Odie put to sleep due to sickness.  Currently we have a black cocker spaniel named Nuit (pronounced New-ee with the accent over the ee).  We adopted Nuit in May, he is six years old and a tremendous blessing to us.  We also have two cats, a black and white one is Opal, whom we call Opie, and a gray cat  named Grayson (originally 'she'  was named Gracie but 'she' actually turned out to be 'he' so he got his name changed).  We aLast year Debbie and I were talking about starting a business and 'voila' here we are.  We can not think of anything that is better than taking care of your very special friends.  We look forward to giving them loving care so you have peace of mind while you are away.
