“Emily has been stopping in to feed and play with our puppy a couple days a week for the past few months, and we were so lucky to find her. She is flexible, responsive, helpful, knowledgeable, and takes great care of our pup. She has given us pointers on stopping bad behavior and has even brought him toys. We are very comfortable leaving him alone during the day knowing she's going to stop by to give him the attention he needs. I cannot say enough good things about her.”
About: I’ve worked at a doggy day care for a little over six months and before that worked for a dog boarding facility during the summer. I also have my own dog named Peggy. I’m currently on summer break right now from college so I’m looking for something to fill my time as well as some extra money. I’m pretty much free during the weekdays and occasionally on weekends! I love to play with dogs and take them outside or for walks. If there are specific food requests I can fulfill them. I can crate them or administer medication if needed.
“Jorinee was excellent with both of my cats. I am so glad I found her. I use to be concerned about who would look after my fur babies or even if I would be able to travel at all. My cats were very comfortable with her. They were relaxed, well fed and their litter box was clean. You can tell it was done on a consistent basis. I have another lengthy vacation for next year and will no doubt be requesting her. She is excellent and I would recommend her to anyone asking.”
“Nicole took great care of my 5 cats while we were away. We came home to everyone well fed and happy”
“Great with our cat, Jellybean. Pleasant and responsive. Thanks, Juliana!”

“Lupe has watched my pets over the past couple of years. I can always count on her to take care of my pets well in my home. My cats could be a bit shy with strangers but they were able to warm up to Lupe fast. They feel at home when she takes care of them, which is a relief when I am away. In addition, she keeps me updated daily with pictures and any important info every time. I highly recommend her ❤️”

Jazmine A.
“Jazmine is amazing with dogs! She is very caring, gives them proper attention, has plenty of patience for all breeds, she's very detailed with how to care for their personality, and when she took care of my dog, he wanted to stay with her from how great she was with him.”
Camille B.
“Camille was so wonderful with my dogs Reina and Kyro and I’m so thankful for her! I am active duty military so when I had a hectic work schedule that would keep me away from home for extended hours throughout the day, Camille faithfully came by to feed my dogs, walk them, and even stayed with them for periods of time. My sweet Kyro has separation anxiety and doesn’t take well to new people, but with Camille he grew fond of her quickly! Both my dogs love her and I had no doubt that they would be properly cared for. Over the years, she’s been our go to pet caregiver and has even welcomed our third pup Zeus with open arms. I would choose her again and again, and highly recommend her. If you are looking for someone who loves animals, is kind and patient, along with respectful of your home, she should be your first call!”
Brittany L.
“Brittany would be a loving, caring, and responsible pet caregiver. In the past seven months I got to witness her giving our boy his best life, before cancer took him from us. She kept him on schedule for his breakfast and dinner. She took him on walks, car rides, and the occasional pup cup. Brittany would treat your pups like her own.”

“You can rely on David. He is very devoted to his dogs. David has a very calm presence and just enjoys dogs so much. David respects the rules my dog has been taught to follow and he gives Charlie lots of love and attention. He loves going to dog parks and dog meetups. Charlie always greets him like a long lost friend!”

Danielle R.
“Danielle is the best sitter I've ever had. She not only cares for my 13 year old dog Snow but treats him with the senior care he needs. She make sure he gets his afternoon arthritis pills he needs and she always follows instructions of where he can and can't go outside so he doesn't trip of hurt himself. She is always on time, and dependable. Because she knows how to care for senior dogs I only trust Danielle to take care of Snow. With her vet tech background, I trust her judgment if at any day something happens with Snow and she recommends he needs to go to the vet asap. Thank you Danielle!!! A+++”
Frances & Luis R.
“We LOVE Frances. I met her through our work (also with dogs!) and was more comfortable leaving them with her than at our work (as my dogs have only ever slept in houses/with people, never a kennel/vet). THEY. LOVE. HER. To the point where, when last we booked with Frances, they knew the sound of the car parked outside and Could. Not. Wait. To. Get. In. Very kid at a sleepover 'okayseeyamomloveyaBYE!!!!' Also it's easy to get an update whenever we want one, which is always nice/keeps peace of mind, not that we need it at this point. 17/10 recommend.”
Ariecia R.
“I am happy to recommend Ariecia as a dog sitter. As a proud dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have a reliable and trustworthy person to take care of our furry friends when we are away, and Ariecia is that person. I have known Ariecia for many years now and during that time I have seen firsthand the love and care that she gives to her own dogs. She truly pampers them, paying attention to theirs needs and really treating them with love as if they were her own flesh and blood children. Whenever I've had to go out of town, I have trusted Ariecia to take care of my own dog and she has never let me down. She has always made sure that he gets plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. She also keeps me updated with pictures and videos which warm my heart when I am away and missing my dog. What sets Ariecia apart as a dog sitter is her genuine love for animals. She treats every dog as if it were her own and goes above and beyond to make sure that they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in her care. If you are looking for a responsible, reliable, and caring dog sitter, I highly recommend Ariecia. She is a true dog lover and will take excellent care of your furry friend!”
Jasmine S.
“Jasmine took care of my two fairly temperamental pit bulls with excellent care, and I’d recommend her to anyone! She knew of Clouds allergies and did her best to follow suit with what was best for her. She took both my dogs in and walked them separately to avoid conflicts with any other animals because Reign is animal aggressive. I will have her watch them again!”
