“As dog owners, we all know how hard it can be to leave our little ones behind when we travel. I’m so happy to have finally found someone I can trust to ensure Edison is loved and cared for while we’re away. Jieming and his wife, Lauren, are incredibly caring, kind, and thoughtful. They took excellent care of Edison and kept us updated with constant photo updates. From the pictures, it was clear that Edison was receiving so much love, having fun, and truly happy. I highly recommend them and will definitely book with them again!”
“Erica was a wonderful caretaker of my dog Jaymo. She was very communicative and knew that I needed to see pics of my boy everyday. She made sure Jaymo got plenty of exercise with daily trail walks. I would highly recommend using her!”
“Jen was terrific to our dog. They treated him so well with warmth, care, attention, and provided him with lots of activity. We very much appreciated her positive energy, professionalism, and organization in preparing and during his care. Also, such great communication and pictures to capture his time with her family and dogs. Highly recommend Jen as sitter.”
“Angelina went above and beyond every single day, sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me smile and reassured us that everything was going smoothly.

“We have a small terrier that is cute and quirky, with a big personality. He felt comfortable with Jane immediately, which was no surprise. Jane has a calm and kind disposition that is a great fit for our dog. Her questions and comments made it clear that she is very thoughtful in making sure that our dog is set up for a good experience when he’s in her care. After spending the night at Jane’s, our dog came home calm and happy. We’re grateful to be able to travel with the confidence that our dog is safe and comfortable while we’re away.”
“Yvonne and her family took amazing care of our 3-year-old golden retriever! She was very communicative throughout his stay, and sent lots of adorable pictures and videos. She took him outside for lots of play time and nice walks, which he loved. It was truly like he was part of their family for the weekend. We knew our dog was safe, happy, and loved during his time there! We had such peace of mind on our trip knowing he was in great hands. Thank you again!”
“Mary took such good care of my miniature schnauzer who is cautious and shy. She was a great communicator. She sent pictures showing me he was happy and doing well and when I picked him he was as contentedly curled up asleep. I am so thrilled to be able to have Mary sit for him again in the future.”
“Ravi is an amazing dog sitter who truly goes above and beyond! He was incredibly responsive, kept me updated throughout, and made sure my dog felt completely at home.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of a 7-year-old Golden Retriever. I’ve cared for multiple puppies at once and have pet-sat for many friends and family, so I understand the needs and love dogs have. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them love, attention, and care to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. I work from home, so I’m available to care for your dog throughout the day. I have a spacious yard for walks and playtime, and there’s a dog park just down the street if that’s something you allow. I also love taking dogs on hikes along nearby trails. My home is large, giving plenty of room to roam, and my Golden Retriever is a gentle, friendly companion who loves making new friends. Your dog will get plenty of love, attention, and adventure while in my care. Dogs are welcome on furniture and the bed if that’s part of their routine. I make sure they get their scheduled meals, plenty of fresh water, and stick to their usual routine as closely as possible. I provide lots of love, attention, and playtime, including walks, trips to the dog park, and outdoor adventures if allowed. I monitor their health and behavior, and I’ll communicate regularly with you so you always know how your dog is doing. Your pup will be treated like part of the family while in my care.
