“Wenge was great with my dog Nutmeg. She was very quick to respond to my questions and gave me several updates about how his day was going. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Sara watched my dog Levi a couple times now and I will for sure book with her again. Levi had an amazing time with Sara and it shows she has a love for dogs and she was so good with him. Sara was also able to help me with last minute arrangements, and sent me photos and updates through out the visit which helped me feel Levi was being taken care of.”
“Ashley was wonderful with Payesh today! She was caring, attentive, and kept us updated with pictures and notes, which gave us peace of mind. Payesh came back happy and relaxed, we could tell he was well taken care of. Highly recommend Ashley!”
“Wei-Chien was great! Excellent and quick communication, provided lots of photos, videos and updates throughout the day. Our Cubby got on great with the other dogs and certainly was well looked after. Would definitely book again and recommend.”
“I am so thankful to Crystal for taking such great care of Ember, who came home happy and ready for a big nap! This was the first time I’ve left Ember with someone outside of the family, and Crystal's updates were great and very reassuring - taking away any anxiety I might have had. She also handled a rainy-day drop-off with a half-wet dog very kindly which I am extra grateful for. I would definitely trust Crystal with Ember again!”
“Fantastic service with Emma and Victoria! Pepper took to them quickly upon introductions and she had a wonderful time at their home for the day, including playtime with their little doggos. Received multiple updates with pictures which was SO appreciated! Very happy we were able to do daycare with Emma and Victoria today, and the pickup-dropoff service was a lifesaver. Thank you!”
“My pup had a great day! Thanks for treating him well and giving him the most amount of walks and attention! Will definitely book with Sarah again! She even left a little surprise in my bag, cookies and a photo of my baby! Such a cute touch!”
About: I have had pets since I was a small child, mostly dogs and cats but I grew up on a farm so have been around all kinds of animals. I have two families that contact me all the time to watch their pets when they are on vacation and we love to have them join us. I have 5 children who adore animals and who are there to lend a helping hand as well as their space to be a great companion to your pets! I work from home so I am always home with my kids and pets, your pets will never be lonely. They will be so loved and cared for, usually by the second time here they walk right in without even looking back! We will always treat your babies like we treat our own :) I’ve worked from home for many years and will continue to do so for many years to come. I am home 95% of the time throughout the week and on weekends. This leaves me very available to care for and accompany your pet. I have a fully fenced yard, we have lots of space inside and out and love to go on walks. I have 2 dogs that get along well with others and can keep your pets company. My kids will also be there to play with, care for, and show love to your pets everyday.
“Laila loves going here. Plays so well with her dog Link. Great backyard for them to run around in. Priyanka is very responsive and I get lots of updates throughout the day.”
About: Animals are often the highlights of my day to day. I recently retired from my corporate career so I can wake up knowing I can do what brings me (and animals) joy full time. I’ve grown up around Beagles, the first being rescued when I was a child, recently passing at the age of 18. We then rescued a much older Beagle that lives his best life at my Grandma’s, as well as my sister who brought a baby Beagle home 😊 I’m comfortable around animals big or small (worked with pitty/hound mixes down to a chihuahua). With all the running around, I do enjoy lounging with my 2 cats at home. I recently switched over from my full time career, so I can be around animals more often! My schedule is very flexible through the weekdays. Weekends being flexible but require a heads up 😊 Regardless where your pet is being taken care of, they will be met with love, empathy and respect. Ensuring their needs (walks in nature or city, food, playtime, naps) are consistently met.
“Evelyn and Jithin have been our go-to for a few years now. Our dog loves coming to visit Miso and her parents and always comes back with a full belly (notorious for being picky at home but not at Miso’s place) and exhausted from so much play time. Thank you both for the updates and for giving Ben a wonderful place to come stay! You guys are the best!”

About: Hi! I’m khushbu, a lifelong dog lover and proud paw-rent to a playful 1 and half year-old pup. I know firsthand how important it is to leave your furry family member with someone who truly cares — and that’s exactly the kind of care I offer. Your pet will be treated like my own, with lots of love, playtime, cuddles, and personalized attention. Whether it’s long walks, or just relaxing snuggle time, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and at home. I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to give you peace of mind while you’re away — because I know how it feels to miss your fur baby.

About: I have had dogs in my home since I was a young child. My most recent pup was a French Bulldog, who now resides with my parents. I am confident in delivering basic puppy training including walking on a leash, house commands, and behavior. I am an active person who really enjoys hikes and long walks, so if you have a high-energy dog that needs stimulation I am the guy! I work full-time from home and can accommodate dog-sitting, drop-ins, or walks during the day between Mon-Fri. My weekends are available for more sitting, walks, and drop-ins. I can provide boarding at any time! My partner and I do not own any pets but have a no-clutter house that is perfect for a dog of any size. I have a fenced yard (albeit small), end unit townhouse with a larger fenced common area for play and bathroom breaks. In addition, we back onto a larger trail network for lengthy walks.
“This was our first time getting a dog sitter for special needs pup, Gracie. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Josephine took amazing care of Gracie and will be our go-to dog sitter in the future. Highly recommend!”

I am so thankful to Crystal for taking such great care of Ember, who came home happy and ready for a big nap! This was the first time I’ve left Ember with someone outside of the family, and Crystal's updates were great and very reassuring - taking away any anxiety I might have had. She also handled a rainy-day drop-off with a half-wet dog very kindly which I am extra grateful for. I would definitely trust Crystal with Ember again!
Jana was amazing. My dog is blind and deaf and can be a bit much when meeting new people and being new spaces. Jana was unphased by it all - she was so calm and accommodating. Ernie was in love with her by the end of their first day together. She is also very prompt with replying. Highly recommend!
This was our first time using Rover and Eden was very helpful with the process. Eden and Jacob are very nice people and though our dog is nervous when we leave him, we felt comfortable leaving him in their care. They provided timely updates and photos on how things were going. It was nice to see the attention that Wolfie was getting. He seemed happy when we picked him up. I would definitely recommend them.
I had a wonderful experience with Pamela as a dog sitter for my puppy, Shiro. Before the booking, she kindly agreed to a quick meet-and-greet at my request. During that time, she asked thoughtful questions and carefully noted all of Shiro’s quirks, habits, and behaviors she should be mindful of. Shiro warmed up to her right away and was calm and happy in her presence, which spoke volumes about her natural ability to connect with dogs. She also took him for a walk, shared how well he behaved on leash, and followed my instructions to keep him away from larger dogs. I really appreciated how seriously she took my recommendations. During his stay, Pamela sent me pictures of Shiro, which gave me peace of mind and made me feel connected. She even set up a dedicated spot for him to relax, complete with a water bowl, showing how thoughtful and attentive she was to his comfort. Overall, I found Pamela to be a reliable, caring, and detail-oriented sitter. I would gladly trust Shiro with her again, knowing he’s safe, happy, and well looked after.
Andrea & family took great care of our boys again for their doggy daycare day. They enjoyed great walks, they were able to keep up with the endless playtime demanded by one and enjoyed the snuggle chill time the other enjoys. We appreciated that they were kindly able to accommodate some adjustments to the schedule also. Thanks again Andrea!
