“We would definitely rebook with Derek. We got frequent updates and photos. Our girls seemed to have a great time with his dogs and family. They were treated so well. Thrilled he had the fenced in backyard. He took care of giving out the medications for one of our girls. Communication was great when it came to coordinate drop off and pick up. Made our long weekend out of state much more enjoyable knowing our two huskies were in good hands.”

13. Jessie M.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I trained dogs for 4h growing up and have experience with large breeds. I have raised cats, dogs, rabbits, and fostered puppies and kittens for the shelter. I understand safety and ensuring a dog is under control and well supervised while getting the care they need! I am available after work and have all my availability on my calendar. I can be flexible for your pets needs and would love to chat! I am not currently offering at home sitting in clients home or my home as I have two dogs at home who take up a lot of space!
14. Ernie W.
“Such a positive experience! I received regular photos and updates about my pup while Ernie was caring for her. She was treated like one of the family. I would definitely recommend Ernie, and will happily leave my puppy with him again in the future.”
15. Mason B.
“Mason was absolutely wonderful with both of my pups! He was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, making sure they were well cared for while I was away. He took them on plenty of walks and kept me updated the entire time, which gave me great peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking him again the next time I’m in town!”

“Sam did a great job watching Arabella and sending updates and pictures each day! I really appreciate it! 😊 Definitely want to hire him in the future and I highly recommend you hire him too!”
17. Ryan W.
“I can’t say enough good things about Ryan! From the moment we met, I could tell they truly understand dogs — especially my deaf pup, who needs a little extra patience and care. He was good with sending me regular updates, photos, and even little notes about my dog’s day. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup. It’s rare to find someone so dependable, communicative, and genuinely kind. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommend!”

Mia and her family embraced her like one of their own! It made me feel very comforted to know that she was well taken care of and getting lots of love and affection! Mia was great about sending me photos, videos, and updates. I will book with her again the next time I am out of town.”
20. Abigail A.
“Abby was a great dog sitter! We had to go out of town last minute and she offered to watch my dog and he had a great time with her. She let me know when she got there and left which I appreciated and communicated how my pup was doing so I didn’t worry about him. I would definitely recommend her!”
