“Magdalena took incredible care of Remi and Spud while we were away. She was punctual, communicative, and sent great photo updates each visit. Remi and Spud were calm, well-fed, and happy when we got back. We’ll definitely be rebooking with Magdalena in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy cat sitter!”
“Ra'eesa was so good to our pup. I felt like she treated him as her own and I loved that! Provided videos and pictures the entire stay, which made me feel so comfortable being that its my kids and I first pup. After the stay I told Ra'eesa Snowy will be back anytime we need a sitter ? Thanks you!”
“Dwight sent text messages and pictures of Bella, which I looked forward to, the communication helped to assure me that Bella was doing well. I could tell that Bella enjoyed her stay!!”
“Timothy was a wonderful sitter ! He shared updates and photos regularly and gave my dog extra food because I didn’t pack enough. He was also very gracious to let me extend my booking on short notice due to travel delays. Highly recommend Timothy and hope we can book with him again !”
About: I have 4 years of experience caring for dogs and absolutely love animals. I’m comfortable with puppies, small dogs, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate routines, and puppy-pad care. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, so I’ll treat your fur baby with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m also happy to provide regular pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends and can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I provide a clean, comfortable environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. I follow each pet parent’s feeding, walking, and care instructions closely and provide updates while your pet is in my care.
“Matt was awesome— and we get so lucky that Blue was in such good care when we were away! Pictures and updates about Blue’s daily activities made it so we could enjoy our vacation. Thanks for treating Blue like family! 💙”
“Courteous, competent, really helped in a pickle with our challenging puppy. Words can't express how much I appreciate his care for dog. He sent us pictures of how happy she was while we were gone and she very clearly missed him when she got back home. I would definitely ask him to host her again in the future if needed.”
“Wow!!! Where do I start. Sheree was amazing with my dog whom I feel is so hyper. I never had to worry about what he was doing or how the day and night was going because Sheree kept me updated everyday that I was on vacation. She sent photos and reassurances and it eased the pain of leaving my dog for so many days. She definitely has a caring spirit about where you just know your dog is in good hands. I will absolutely be booking with her again for the overnight stay. From my family and Yoshi we truly thank Sheree.”

“Cassandra took great care of my dog Ace during his 4-day stay. I can tell he had a good time hanging out with her dog, Chewy. Cassandra was a pleasure to work with and I hope to use her services again for future boarding.”
“What a wonderful experience this was for my elderly kitty, who was so well cared for. I've never seen her adjust so quickly. Thank you, Phyllis, for taking such good care of my kitty. Definitely recommend!!”
“1000/10, She contacted me everyday with updates and pictures/ videos. I definitely will be recommending her to my friends and family. My dog loved Ms. Toya, she came back home just as happy as she was when I dropped her off!!!”
“Veronica is the best! Tucker loved being at her place! She made him so comfortable and myself as well, knowing my senior dog was in good hands. Many, many thanks to Veronica! Tucker will definitely be visiting her again.💕”
“Cooper had a wonderful time and was wonderfully tired after a day of play with Karia. Karia was super easy to coordinate care with. Will be booking again in the future.”
“Jackie has watched our dog, Cooper, for many days at this point. She frequently updates us when we're away, and sends pictures as soon as you ask (and often when you don't)! After this last time her watching Cooper, it almost seemed like he was sad and missed her once he came home. I can't recommend her enough. She will take great care of your pet.”
“Jose was so accommodating to my ever changing schedule. He allayed my fears of leaving Chako for an extended period and was just an all-around good person to watch my chocolate lab. Thanks a bunch!!”

I had such a wonderful experience leaving my fur baby Star in her care while I was on vacation! From the beginning, she made me feel comfortable and gave me peace of mind knowing Star was in good hands. She was very sweet, caring, dependable, and treated Star like she was her own. As a dog mom, it means so much to be able to enjoy my vacation without having to worry about my baby. I truly appreciate the love, patience, and attention she gave Star while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their fur baby. Thank you again for taking such good care of my girl! 🐾❤️
Mercedes was fantastic! Our dog was so happy and relaxed when we got home. We loved getting daily photo updates where her entire family was included showing love and care for GraZeson. GraZeson and I are definitely looking to booking Mercedes and her wonderful family again!"
I couldn’t have asked for a better pet experience for my 5 month old puppy. I reached out to Amy just a week before and was pleasantly surprised that she was available but also happy to watch my active 5 month old Golden Retriever. I could tell by her profile she was someone who would care for him well. And that certainly was the case . We had originally planed for a 3pm drop off and late night pick up after a concert. And less than 24 hours before that, I asked if she could watch him from 8am instead bc of a sudden change in my plans. She immediately responded that she was available and it was such a relief. At drop off, she asked me several questions about Cypher’s care and needs and it was very reassuring. I received many photos and a video of Cypher’s extended day with her. He had a blast running in her yard and playing and being with her two pups. He also got to meet one of the kittens she was fostering. He was also able to settle and sleep in a crate she had available. It was the perfect environment for him. I’m so thankful for the care she took of him. He came back to me happy and was clearly well looked after. I highly recommend Amy. She is very trustworthy and cares deeply for animals as is evident in my experience with her. I would use her again.
