“We couldn't have asked for a better experience for our dog. Azure gave our pup a wonderful home away from home and we will definitely trust her to take care of her again! We received pictures and updates every day and knew that Saffy was in good hands.”


“I had a trip I had my usual sitter unable to watch my Great Dane with very short notice. Natalie responded quickly and eased my worries about finding someone to watch my girl. When I arrived she was welcoming and Lucy warmed up to her quickly. I got pictures during the stay showing Lucy was doing well and having a good time. I will definitely use Natalie again for boarding services!”


“Karisa was fantastic! Our dog is older (15) and can get a little nervous, so a caring, home environment is what we were looking for. There was such peace of mind leaving our pet with Karisa. She even sent pictures so we could see how cozy Tilly was in their home and she was sent home with a “goodie bag” of homemade doggie treats! We highly recommend!!!”


“This was our first time taking our dogs to a sitter and Stephanie has set the bar high! She and her husband Chris made us feel comfortable immediately leaving Marley and Mack with them- especially over the holidays. Stephanie sent pictures and updates daily that we greatly appreciated. We will definitely reach out to Stephanie again!”


“Agnatha was amazing. We did the meet and greet while my dog, Cookie, was in perfect health. Unfortunately that evening my dog would need emergency surgery. My hotel wasn't refundable and I was worried about leaving my dog who now had to wear a cone and take medication. But Agnatha said she would be perfectly fine taking care of Cookie post surgery. When we picked Cookie up she was happy and healthy.”


“Alexis was amazing with our elderly Boston Terrier - she sent frequent pictures and updates and made us feel reassured that our pup was in good hands! We already booked another stay with her!”


About: I’ve spent my life around dogs and had the privilege of raising my own from puppyhood to his senior years — 14 amazing years together. While I’m not looking to bring a new dog into my home full-time right now, I still genuinely enjoy being around them. I tailor care to each dog’s needs and personality. Whether your pup is full of energy or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to match their rhythm — from active walks to quiet downtime. My husband and I work full-time, and our schedules allow us to care for dogs during early afternoons through the evenings on weekdays, as well as full days on weekends. We team up to provide consistent, loving attention for your dog. Safety and trust mean a lot to us. Our girls have grown up around dogs and always show so much love and care — they’ll stop every dog we see just to say hi, give hugs, and plenty of belly rubs. We have a fenced yard where dogs can safely play, and no other dogs in our home, so your pup will have plenty of space and attention. We always follow the owner’s instructions to keep up with their usual routine — activity, meals, naps, and all — to make sure your dog feels comfortable and at home. We know dogs need both chill time and playtime, so we make sure there’s plenty of space to relax and feel comfortable, plus lots of chances to get active and use their energy. As a family, we work together to give your dog the best care possible, treating them like one of our own.

“Emily took such good care of our Nessi. I loved the pictures and updates she provided. It made me feel great knowing my dog was being so we'll cared for. I could relax and enjoy my daughter's wedding. Thank you Emily for everything.”


“Joscelyn and Ivan and their 2 sweet kids took great care of our little 8 pound Morkie! You can tell they love dogs and love caring for them. Joscelyn is a great communicator and sent many pictures to keep us updated. We would definitely use them again!”


“Haley and Tyler were very kind and their kiddos loved on Winston well. They did a great job giving Winston plenty of exercise and handling a couple situations well. Would book with them again!”

About: I’m currently pursuing my education with one goal in mind: to make a meaningful difference in the lives of your beloved fur babies! Whether it’s training energetic puppies or giving extra love and care to senior pets, I’m here for it all. I’ve been caring for animals since I was just 4 years old, and with my Bachelor’s Degree in Biological Sciences—concentrating in Ecology—I’m excited to bring both heart and science together to provide the best care possible. Making tails wag and pets feel safe is truly my passion! I’m currently available on weekends, which means I can dedicate lots of quality time to caring for and playing with your fur baby! Now that I’ve finished college, I also have plenty of free time—perfect for early morning potty breaks, training sessions, fun play routines, and even overnight visits with attentive monitoring and late-night potty runs. Your pet’s comfort and routine are my top priority! I have spare crates available and two sweet pups of my own who love making new friends! With plenty of toys and regular trips to public parks, your fur baby will have lots of enrichment and playtime. My apartment even has a doggy-gated play area where your pup can run around safely and freely! For added peace of mind, I’m fully prepared for emergencies—I can crate when necessary, and I use doggy seat belts for safe car rides. I’m also CPR-certified and have hands-on experience with syringe-feeding medications if needed. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority!

“They have watched my dog Oliver several times. The do a great job and are very accommodating. Will continue to to use for my dog sitting needs.”


“Mindi's gentle spirit was a perfect fit for Ozzy. He was very happy when picked up and seemed to enjoy his walks and time with Mindi. She kept in touch by sending pictures of Ozzy and asked questions about how best to care for him. I will gladly reach out to Mindi again the next time we need someone to watch Ozzy.”


“I am so glad I found this app to have met Laura! She was AMAZING from the very beginning. I have never boarded my dog overnight with anyone outside of family and Laura made the process for myself and my Legend boy so easy! I always go off how my boy reacts to people when he meets them and he felt very comfortable with Laura during our first meet up which gave me a peace of mind about the entire process. Laura communication was GREAT she messaged me with any questions and she also shared updates through messages and pictures of my Legend boy throughout his stay! Her response back to me was always done in a timely matter. She was just AWESOME and easy to work with. I will definitely be returning and would recommend Laura to anyone who is looking for a safe, friendly, loving place for their fur babies to stay when in need of a sitter💗.”

“I can’t say enough good things about the amazing job she did babysitting my dog, Diggs! From the moment she arrived, Diggs felt comfortable and happy in her care. She was attentive, responsible, and went above and beyond to make sure he was well-exercised, fed, and loved. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. When I came home, Diggs was relaxed and clearly had a wonderful time.
