Could not ask for a better caretaker for our dogs. Luna is absolutely delightful to work with and does everything possible to make sure you and your pets are comfortable. I could tell how much they loved animals from the initial visit and how much my dogs loved them ❤ I received pictures and updates on my dogs frequently while I was away. Book with Luna and you will not be disappointed! Luna is very professional and respectful, really paid attention to the details when taking care of our dogs. We already booked our next house sitting service with them!

Melanie was amazing! She followed everything we had talked about and we wrote down. She gave her lots of attention and exercise. She stayed with Luna longer than we had needed her to. She left us a report, sent us pictures, was on time, and sent a text to let us know she would be leaving. I would highly recommend her!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I have experience with small dogs all the way to Bernese mountain dogs. Currently I have a mixed breed named Arlo that is full of energy. We love to go on walks and adventure everyday. Your dog will not be bored and will be loved like they are my own. Currently working full time with the ability to work from home if needed. I only live 3 blocks from where I work so coming home is no issue. I am a early riser so my dog gets plenty of exercise in the mornings to wear him out while we are gone. I would be able to watch your animal any day of the week. I have a nice size backyard that isn’t fenced in (my dog doesn’t need) but have a chain in case your animal needs it. I have a very nice crate if they prefer to lay or sleep in one. I am mostly outside in the mornings and at night so your pup will always be moving or can lay around and relax if that’s what they prefer.

About: I owned a dog for a couple years who had a disease that required special care when eating and drinking water, he had a lot of medical needs. I became profiecent in his needs and provided great care before he passed. With that said, I have experience with taking care of dogs with special needs. I also have experience raising a puppy from very young, so I understand reactiveity in dogs and have learned different ways to calm them down or pay special attention to them during moments of high reactivity ( like during walks) I am currently work remotely from home and have a pretty flexible schedule during my day that allows me to do side quests such as rover I have a fenced in yard and 1 dog who loves playing with other dogs! so your fur baby would have a best friend to play with during the day. I can also easily crate my or your dog

Couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my cats and dogs! Angela made a special effort to understand the routines and quirks of each of my animals. My dogs are anxious with new people and one of them likes to bolt. Angela was very aware and confident about working with these challenges. She’s a true ‘animal person’. I came home to a happy pack! 100% will work with her again!

The house was in perfect condition when we returned and Odys was happy and healthy, ready to see us. We got regular updates with photos.

Morgan adores animals of all kinds, but especially dogs. At a young age, Morgan was able to prove responsible and trustworthy to take care of her own pet, and would often be asked to tend to friends and family’s pets as well. There is something about a dog’s tail wagging that makes Morgan happy. She has always been noticed in school and in the jobs she’s held to be a hard worker, kind, and courteous.
