“Lulu is the absolute best with our fur babies. She's very caring and goes out of her way to ensure our kitties are well adjusted while we are gone. She's a great communicator and I highly recommend her to care for your pets while you are away.”


“Maryn is a superstar! My little girl was sick the entire time I was on vacation. Maryn gave her every medication needed and extra snuggles to help her feel better.”


“Excellent service. My dogs were in perfect shape and temperament upon our arrival. No signs of stress and I can tell they got lots of love. House is in condition as we left it. Great communication and even some pics.”


“Virginia took excellent care of my babies. I didn't worry about them while I was gone and she sent regular updates. She also was willing to stay and extra night due to my flight home getting cancelled. I would book her again.”

“Gabriela was amazing with our pups. She sent lots of pictures and left our house clean and organized. We will be using her for all our upcoming travel.”


“Kelsey is by far the BEST dog sitter we have EVER had!!! She went above and beyond every single day with both our boys with walks, play time, feedings, potty, etc. We know this because she was so communicative and sent pictures/videos anytime she was with them. This was huge because it gave us that comfort while out of town that they were in the best hands (honestly maybe even better!!). We ended up having some travel issues that caused us to be gone for another day and even though I know she’s busy, Kelsey took care of our boys without missing a beat! She’s the best to work with, super consistent and our dogs absolutely love her. We wish there were more stars to give because 5 doesn’t even seem like enough!”


“Mya was amazing! She took great care of our pup and did an awesome job!”


About: I have adored dogs since childhood and have experience in fostering, training service dogs, and providing enrichment to pit bulls at the local humane society. Currently, I own a golden doodle and understand the significance of your dog. I promise to care of them with love and dedication! As a dog parent myself, I understand the guilt of not being able to walk or hang out with your dog as much as you would like! That is why I offer flexible dog walking, boarding, and day care services to take that stress off your plate! I am available for reliable all of these services on a daily, weekly, or bi-weekly basis I have ample experience in walking all kinds of dogs, from energetic puppies to elderly or disabled dogs. Your dog's well-being is my foremost concern, whether that means going for a run or leisurely strolling and sniffing around. My goal is to ensure that your dog receives enough exercise and enrichment in the beautiful outdoors, which is undoubtedly the best part of their day!

“Torie took great care of my doggies and my home! She is always so sweet and attentive with my pups, and she did a great job of checking in and giving me updates while I was out of town.”


“She was able to watch the girls with very short notice. I appreciate her so much for that and for taking such good care of my dogs. I will definitely use her again.”


“Olivia is such a blessing for our pups! I feel so lucky to have someone that they are comfortable with and that I trust to have their well-being and care at heart!”


“Our pups loved David!”


“Jenny was amazing and put our minds at ease knowing our Luna was taken care of. She was recently adopted and still getting acclimated to our home when we had to suddenly leave town. She kept us updated and sent pictures!”


About: We’re a pet-loving home with 3 cats and 2 sweet senior dogs—all friendly, spayed/neutered, and great with guests! Your pet will feel right at home with plenty of love, snuggles, and playtime. I am available everyday, if I am boarding in my home I am available to come and go a lot. If boarding in your home I am available to stop by multiple times during the day/night. I have a fenced yard & two senior dogs who enjoy company. They’re still young at heart! 3 cats who are very social and enjoy new faces.

“Jade did a great job taking care of Nash and Abegail, she sent updates daily and pictures, also went the extra step in watering all our plants while we were gone Would definitely recommend, put us at ease while away”


About: Hello, I'm Josie, I'm 26 years old when I was 18 I worked with animals first time at petsmart as a dog bather. I have always loved animals. I'm very good at taking care of animals always enjoyed it. I worked at a kennel as a doggy daycare and I love it. I dog sit for friends and family then and there. Dogs trust me. I take my time with aggressive dogs. i never give up. I help build there confidence and there trust. After that they look at me like I'm part of the pack. I'm unemployed and a stay at home mom. I have plenty of time to take care and play with you're fur babies. I love working with animals ❤ We live in a trailer in the country alot of space to run its not fenced. But I would take them out on a leash or a lead.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and am an avid animal lover! From dogs and cats to bunnies and reptiles. Breed nor age matters! I’ve been around dogs as small as Chihuahuas to dogs as big as Great Pyrenees. I also have experience with dogs as young as 2 months and dogs as old as 18 years. I am able to provide what your pet needs, including; nail trimming, brushing, bathing, medication, and more**. In my hands, your dog will receive the upmost respect and care. **I cannot provide these if your dog responds aggressively as it could lead to injury. This is for the safety of everyone, including the animal. I’m a full time art teacher that commutes 40 minutes to and from work. That means pick-ups and drop-offs for boarding will occur in the early evenings (around 4:30 - 5:00pm) unless otherwise specified. While I may not be home during the day, my partner is, and can let your dog out to potty/stretch on a regular basis. When I am home, your dog will receive lots of love and attention! During the summer, I am home all day! There are also a few times throughout the year when I am home for the holidays (like winter break or spring break). We can discuss pick-up and drop-off times if you end up needing boarding during one of these days. I have a 4ft chain-link fenced in backyard with lots of shade and running room. I have two dogs who are dog friendly and would love to play with your fur baby OR I can keep them separated. I can crate your dog (we have kennels or you can provide one). I also have a spare bedroom if your dog is not comfortable with other animals (we do have 3 cats) and is not crate trained. Otherwise, your dog will be loose in the house and allowed on furniture. There is a park right across the street from the house, perfect for walks or playing fetch. We also have a kiddy pool if your dog likes to play in water! Lastly, we are a take a cruise in the car kind of family, so if your dog loves car rides, they’ll get to tag along. I am the kind of individual who follows a schedule if provided one, so if your dog has a routine or special needs, please let me know :)

About: I’ve taken care of puppies and other small dogs since I was 15. Neighbors and friends and family have relied on me to watch, walk and feed their fur babies. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I’ll be able to walk anytime. I try to get out in the fresh air daily as needed. So excited! I have a friendly, lovable dog that will keep you fur baby company. I also will make sure the pet is well feed. I can easily crate if needed.

About: I had a mini schnauzer growing up that I helped train/raise from a puppy. I have taken care of my friend’s dog’s before too. I am a fan of walks, snuggles, and scratching a belly or ear until the leg starts shaking I work from home 4 days a week and have gaps in my schedule where I will be available to visit or stay with your furry little friend. As a former pet parent and current child parent; I understand how difficult it can be to leave your babies in a strangers care. I will treat your pets and home with the love and respect they deserve.
