“Selena took amazing care of my two pups for the evening! She kept me updated throughout the night, which gave me total peace of mind. I could tell they were in great hands and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“Grace is amazing! Cannoli can be a little shy at first, and she was so welcoming and made him feel right at home. He was so happy to see her his second time. He’s had so much fun, he’ll be boarding with her soon! Grace sends regular photo updates and lets us know how Cannoli is doing throughout the day, and she even gives him puzzles! I’d recommend Grace to anyone!”


“Sunshine and Shannon did a great job with our two boys. I had to go into work for few days and our dogs loved spending time with them and received lots of pets and walks. I appreciated the meet and greet, and all the updates and pictures during the day. I could tell my dogs were super comfortable spending time with them. This was the first time with Sunshine and Shannon and we’ll definitely be back!”


“Teddy had a great day playing with the other dogs and the wonderful family that you can just tell how much they love animals the minute you meet them. I had absolutely no concerns at all. Communication is great and response is quick. I'm so grateful they were available last minute. Teddy was very pleasantly happy and tired when I picked him up just the way we like a puppy at the end of the day I will definitely use them again.”


“Theo had a great time staying with Melanie again! She took him on a 5 mile hike, which I know he just loved. It's nice to pick up your dog at the end of the day and know they have gotten great mental/physical stimulation and interaction throughout the day!”


“Melissa & Tommy are genuinely such good to honest animal loving people. We are so appreciative of their patience and calm demeanor around our furbabies. Our furbabies are a lot to handle. One of them has high anxiety to loud sounds, movements, strangers and the little one is a snuggly rascal. But Melissa & Tommy handled and cared for them with so much love. We are grateful. They also provided tons of updates. We appreciate that a lot! Thank you so much!!”


“Zaira is an exceptional dog sitter. Throughout my dog’s stay with her, she regularly shared pictures and videos, keeping me updated and reassured. She is highly responsive to messages and made the drop-off and pick-up process seamless by promptly opening the gate. I wholeheartedly recommend Zaira to anyone seeking outstanding care for their dogs.”


“Brandon is super attentive with our baby ?, we built a lot of trust from day 1 as Rio like to be around him and he always make sure to send us cute photos, also he’s helping us to train him and we see the improvement on him, I would definitely recommend Brandon for anyone that cares about having a good person in charge of your dog .. Thank you Brandon !!”


About: I've grown up surrounded by dogs and have been a dedicated pet parent for 7 years. From 8-week-old puppies to older dogs, I've had the joy of raising Pomeranians, Labrador Retrievers, and Golden Retrievers, each with their unique personalities and needs. My close friends regularly trust me with their pets when they travel, knowing their furry family members will receive the same love and attention I give my own. We have had and trained our Golden Retriever since he was 8 weeks old, so I understand the patience and consistency required. What sets me apart is my commitment to maintaining your dog's exact routine and providing one-on-one attention. Since I work from home, your dog will never be alone. They'll enjoy regular walks, outdoor playtime, frequent potty breaks, fresh water, and treats. I send daily photos and detailed reports so you know exactly how your pup is doing, plus videos of their adventures. I'm always available to answer questions or address any concerns - your peace of mind is just as important as your dog's happiness. I work from home, which means I have the flexibility to provide exceptional care throughout the day. Your pup will never experience the loneliness of being left alone for 8+ hours like they might with traditional sitters. My typical day includes: - Morning walks and breakfast routine - Mid-morning play sessions and potty breaks - Afternoon outdoor time (based on weather) - Evening walks and dinner - Bedtime routine to help your dog settle I'm available 7 days a week and can easily accommodate different schedules - whether your dog is an early riser who needs a 6 AM walk or prefers lazy mornings. I can also maintain any specific routine your dog is used to, including meal times, medication schedules, or favorite nap spots. Weekend availability means I can take longer walks and provide extended play times. Since I don't have a traditional 9-5 schedule, I can provide the attention and care that working pet parents wish they could give their own dogs. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home features a fully fenced and shaded yard where dogs can play safely off-leash and explore without risk. The yard provides both sunny spots for lounging and shaded areas for cooling down during warmer days. Inside, I maintain a dog-friendly environment with: 1. A comfortable crate available for dogs who prefer their own space or are crate-trained for sleeping 2. Plenty of dog toys for mental stimulation and play 3. Non-slip rugs in key areas for senior dogs or smaller breeds 4. All hazardous items (cleaning supplies, medications, small objects) securely stored Safety protocols include: 1. Secure latches on all gates and doors 2. Regular yard inspections for hazards 3. Immediate clean-up of any messes to prevent accidents 4. Constant supervision during outdoor play 5. Emergency vet contact information readily available I understand that every dog has different comfort levels and preferences. Some love to explore every inch of the house, while others prefer to stick to familiar spaces. I'll work with you to understand your dog's specific needs and create the most comfortable environment for them. Your dog will be treated as part of the family, with the same level of care and attention I give my own Golden.
