About: July/2022- With deep sorrow we announce that as july 24th Hatchi passed. We thank him for been a great dog for the pass 9 years. We will miss you and will live in our hearts forever, Rest in peace good boy. Hi my name is Adolfo and I live with my lovely wife Estefania, We are a couple that shares a passion and love for animals, specially dogs. Our love for dogs is so much that we adopted one of our dogs from CACC 5 years ago and it was the best decision we have ever taken. If you decide to book any dog sittings or boarding with us, you can be confident that your fur friend will always be in the best caring hands. On top of that, your dog will always have our attention as we both work from home. In addition, we will give you peace of mind by keeping you up to date about your dog throughout their stay so that you can remain confident that they are been treated like the kings and queens they are. In their stay, they are going to spend their free time in a full fenced yard with fresh water; ready for them to play and exercise. We will also ensure the safety of your dog by supervising them at all times while they have a great time in the yard. Please Note: At this time we are only looking for dogs that are neutered/spayed and that are not aggressive towards any other dogs for the safety of other dogs.

About: I have had a dog my whole life and feel very connected to them. Generally, I prefer big dogs but would love any type of dog. I have experience with dogs with seizures and dogs who need medication, as well as some experience with reactive dogs. Since I love to walk, and dogs love to be walked, I think this is a perfect fit! I'm currently not working (through the end of the summer) so I am available weekdays and evenings for walks or doggy day care, as well as on the weekends for walking or boarding. I have a large fenced yard and a friendly, patient Lab Mix to keep your dog company. I can crate your dog if needed and also have lots of indoor space for lounging or playing.

About: Hiya! I'm Michael. I'm dedicated to providing pets with quality care and affection while you're away. Growing up, I was always surrounded by animals. I love all manner of pets: cats and dogs alike, birds, rodents, reptiles, etc., and I feel comfortable around them all. In high school, I began dog and cat sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, where I acquainted myself with services like (dog) walks, overnight stays, administering medicines (as needed), and home security checks. Whether you have a large, high energy dog who prefers a hike, or a old cat that prefers quiet companionship and head scratches, I’ve got it covered. I love learning about animals and their various quirks and habits to ensure they feel safe, loved, and entertained, so rest assured, your pets will have a wonderful experience. During the day, I work as a substitute teacher, meaning I have a very flexible schedule throughout the week. I am available for early morning walks and feedings before 8:00 AM, am occasionally open for midday check-ins, and am always free for dinner and evening care (typically after 3:30 PM). Additionally, my weekends are completely open, allowing me to dedicate a majority of my time to your pets for longer outings or overnight stays. Because I follow a school-day routine, I’m a great fit for owners who are comfortable being home during the day and are ready for lots of attention once school’s out (especially during breaks)! When caring for pets, my top priorities are maintaining their routine and ensuring the safety of the home. I stick closely to schedules to keep stress levels low while you're away. For dogs, this means regular walks and plenty of play; for cats and smaller animals, it means keeping their environments clean and comfortable. When requested, I also perform basic home checks, such as bringing in mail or adjusting lights, so you can have peace of mind, and I always leave everything exactly as I found it.

If I could give more stars than 5 I would. Sam is the only sitter that my cat trusted enough to come out of hiding. I have a cat with a traumatic history and normally he does not budge from the farthest depths under the bed. I finally can stop worrying about my gentle giant while I am away.

Lauren was absolutely amazing watching my dogs for three days! From the moment we connected, she was professional, warm, and incredibly attentive. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved on the entire time. She followed all instructions perfectly and treated them like her own. When I returned, everything was clean, organized, and my pups were calm and content — which says everything. It’s not easy trusting someone with your fur babies, but Lauren exceeded every expectation. I would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care. Thank you, Lauren! 🐾💛

About: I've had a dog in my life ever since I was 5, and I've taken care of my friends pets for even longer! I've also walked four dogs at once, and I'm very proud of that. I have a golden retriever I see three times a week. I'm in-between school and work, I have a lot of free time to take care of animals. I like to be where the animals are, whether there's a backyard, we're on a long walk, or we're cuddling on a couch watching a movie. I do work at home, which results in a lot of close contact.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life, including a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Pitbull mix, so I’m very comfortable with both large and high-energy breeds. I also have experiences with extended stay puppy sitting where I managed feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and creating a calm, structured environment. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attentiveness are, especially with puppies. I’m currently preparing to welcome a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very intentional about creating safe, positive experiences for dogs. I work Monday through Friday but my partner is currently home all day, so someone will always be there to care for your dog! We are open to boarding any night. Walks I am primarily available after work or sometimes the morning before. My partner is currently available most anytime! We are both reliable and detail oriented. We are prepping to bring in our very own golden retriever puppy, so will treat your dog as if they are our own! As mentioned above I work Mon-Friday roughy 8-4. My partner is currently home throughout the day so someone will always be there to care for your dog. We are open to boarding almost any day especially weekends where we are both home. Walks and drop ins work best for me before work hours or after but my partner has open availability so between us we can accommodate to you! Feel free to ask if you have any specific availability questions! :) Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and am very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and safety during walks and care. I always keep dogs securely leashed on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing a safe and positive experience. I’m also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always feel confident and connected while your dog is in my care.

About: I have been watching my friends’, family’s, and neighbors’ pets for 5+ years now. I offer a “Wow” factor of service that goes beyond the traditional water, food, bathroom routine. When I care for any pet, I take the extra care and time to play and cuddle so your fuzzy friend is never lonely. I make sure to bring my Polaroid camera to take pictures of your pet while you’re away so you never miss a moment and can display your cutie anywhere in the home - completely complimentary! I also have extensive experience with administering medicines like liquids, pills and subcutaneous fluids to differently abled pets. My own cat has needed each of those in the past so I have grown comfortable doing so and take extra care in the practice. My service is exemplary; neighbors who no longer live close to me still call me up to take care of their pets. I can’t wait to take care of yours! I am a primary grades teacher on summer break. This means I have lots of unused patience I typically spend on my little ones to use on taking care of your beloved pets and household, as well as lots of time on my hands to attend to your needs! I care for any pet like they are my pet. As a pet owner myself, it is so hard being away and worrying how they’re doing. When I leave them in others’ care, I would hope they care for my pet like they are their own. I take this philosophy into the homes and lives of others. With extensive practice in child care, pet care and medicine management, and house sitting, I will come to your aid with a lens of empathy and compassion.

Liliia was a superb cat-sitter! I was able to reach out, in short suspense and in desperate need, to Liliia and quickly/conveniently book her. She was open to doing whatever it takes to make me feel comfortable with her and took the time to get to know my cats while I was away. Also extremely great at communicating quickly and effectively! I would 100% book her again if her availability was open! If you get a chance, make sure you book her as well!

Nataliia is an incredible sitter! We just moved from across the country, and our dog is having some separation anxiety with the move. Nataliia has been great with him, he warmed up to her faster than he has to anyone before! She is communicative and on time, and sends pictures of Charlie during her visits. She has been amazing to work with and we are lucky to have her as a sitter for our dog!
