“Gail had our boy for 6 days and he was VERY well taken care of! We can tell he had a blast with her and her family, and we will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future!!!”

About: I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs, and have grown up around them. I’m very close with my family dog, Kaia, a 14 year old bichon Shih Tzu. I have many years of hands on experience caring for her, including attending puppy training classes together, she has taught me patience, kindness, and how important it is to make a dog feel loved safe and comfortable. I’m caring, and responsible and genuinely enjoy taking dogs for walks, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention. I hope to have a dog of my own one day so caring for other people’s pets is something I truly enjoy and take great pride in. Very available weekends, afternoons, and evenings. Available some days during the week depending on my work schedule. Happy to take your pet for long or short walks or even overnight. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routines, including walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I’m respectful of each pet’s personality and needs, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions from their owner. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, my goal is for them to feel relaxed, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Katrina was so wonderful with our puppy Oggie we got lots of photos and updates through the day and came back to a very happy puppy. I would definitely recommend Katrina and would happily book them again!”

“We had a fantastic experience with the Jeremy! He did a great job giving our dog enough exercise to keep him happy. We also appreciated how well they managed his medications, making sure everything was given on time and correctly. Throughout our time away, they kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which really put us at ease. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter!”

“Skyler had a nice four nights stayed with Marcella. She is very experienced with dogs. Told he was comfortable at her home which is wonderful since it was only the second time Skyler had been away from the family. We also like that Skyler had doggie company during his stay as he likes socializing.”

“Lisa was truly amazing. She was kind, welcoming , so attentive to my little ones and just an overall joy to interact with. She kept me well updated with photos and videos and she did so shortly after drop off. I’m often very nervous leaving or trusting my dogs with anyone but she was definitely the best choice I could ever make!”

About: I grew up with 8 German Shepherds, 3 cats, and 1 Poodle! I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’m calm, patient, and great with shy or anxious dogs. I’m able to read dog body language and respect their boundaries. I believe in safety first mindset on walks and in the home, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, not just watching them. I’m currently working part-time and my job is close to home, so I can walk over during my breaks for check-ins. I attend school full time, with half of my classes online, which means I’m home for majority of the day and able to give pets regular attention and care! I follow a clear schedule for walks, meals, and play-time. On-time care everyday. I care for pets by maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or a clients home. I make sure they are fed on schedule, get regular walks, and have plenty of attention, playtime, and rest. I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and safety, and I always respect house rules and special instructions. I also provide regular updates with photos so pet parents feel at ease while they’re away.

About: My partner and I have been caring for dogs since we were kids, and dogs have been a huge part of our lives for as long as we can remember. Together, we bring over 40 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Over the years, we’ve learned that every dog is different. We’ve cared for playful puppies, sweet seniors, energetic goofballs, and dogs with more challenging personalities. We understand the different needs and challenges that come with each stage of a dog’s life, and most importantly, we love them all! ❤️ Spending so much time around dogs has also taught us how to read their body language, understand their behavior, and communicate with them in a way that helps them feel safe and comfortable. When your pup stays with us, their safety, happiness, and comfort will always be our top priorities. We currently have a 10-year-old canine family member named Donnie. He is a super friendly guy who has been around other dogs and enjoys having canine company. To make sure everyone gets along safely and comfortably, we might do a meet-and-greet with Donnie before the first stay. Whether your pup is an energetic ball of chaos, a professional couch potato, or somewhere in between, we’ll do our best to make them feel right at home. 🐕💕 We're also very active and love to go for walks with our canine friends, what's already part of our routine with Donnie. Have questions or want to make sure we’re a good fit for your furry family member? Don’t hesitate to reach out, we’d love to hear from you! I work regular daytime hours, while my partner works nights, which means your pup will rarely be home alone and won’t be left alone for more than a couple of hours a day. We love having dogs around and are happy to give them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and companionship. We have a nice fenced backyard with grass and trees where the dogs can enjoy some outdoor time. We also have a dog door so they can go freely between the house and backyard.

“Had a terrific experience with Jackie!! Very warm, welcoming and at ease with our dog. Our dog quickly warmed up to her (and her dog) and seemed right at home . Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She went on long walks and was treated like a queen :)) Thanks so much, Jackie!!”

“Lorena was able to take my Ellie on short notice, and took very good care of her! She was very sweet and kind, and made sure to send some photos.”

About: Hello! My partner Chris and I would be happy to host your fur baby (or fur babies) in our home! We have two wonderful and friendly doodles (a mama and baby duo!). Rosie has been with us now since 2020 and Ginger came along in 2024. Both girls are spayed. I work from home. Both of our girls are very friendly and gentle and so are we! We invite other pups (neutered males or spayed/unspayed females) to hang out with us! Our girls love playing fetch and anything to do with the water. Pups who have similar interests would fit right in! We are happy to host your pup for daytime daycare or overnight stays. We are centrally located on Tamarack Drive off Springfield and have a fenced yard and easy access to the Mission Creek Greenway. Your pup(s) will be treated to walks, hikes, swims, and fetch galore! I work part-time from home so I'm available all day and night to take care of our doggies. If I have to run out for an errand there is always someone home. :) My partner Chris usually walks the dogs morning + night and we might take them for an additional adventure somewhere in the middle. With the Mission Creek Greenway right outside our door, little mini adventures are common. :) Our girls love sitting on the deck, listening to the birds, and watching people (and dogs) go by. We feed our dogs twice daily and they get 2+ daily walks + additional fun adventures (fetch, dog park, car ride, etc). Our girls have frequent opportunities to go outside and catch some fresh air, sniff, or use the "loo". We let our dogs on the furniture and they either sleep in our bed with us or on the floor in our bedroom. We have a crate in the room and our young pup sometimes uses it (her bedroom). We can accommodate your dog's food schedule, walk schedule, and sleeping needs. I'm also happy to administer any necessary medications to your pup.
