About: Hi there! Thanks for considering us. We are husband, wife and a 2.5 year old fur baby (golden retriever) Juno. We have both always loved animals and are very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds. Both of us have attended pet training classes that taught us how to deal with shy/timid pups. Sruthi has had a family Labrador growing up who she cared for very dearly. Together we have 15+ years of pet care experience that includes accommodating complex feeding schedules, plenty of walks, administering medications, and loads of rubs and cuddles. For in-home boarding, we provide a comfortable and safe environment, complete with lots of playtime, cuddles, and personalized attention. My wife and I work full time from home. One of us is always at home to take care of your precious one. Most of my wife's work is offline and she has good amount of time to take the pets for quick breaks, feed them in the afternoons if needed and we are both always available to give the pups lots of attention, rubs and cuddles. I have a fenced yard with approximately 2500 sft play area, I have a super friendly golden retriever.. a huge crate if needed for your dog. We have slow feeders, toys and pet wipes to make sure your pup is clean every single time they visit outside and also helps to keep our home tidy.

About: I have taken care of my families dog for over ten years now. This includes feeding, toileting, bathing, administering medications, trimming nails, and basic training. Further, I have been trusted by many family members and friends to care for thier dogs, big and small, for short and extended periods of time. I am currently working part time, so will have plently of time to walk, feed, and play with your pet! I am availbale most Saturdays, Sundays after 1pm, Mondays until 2 and weekdays after 4. In your home, I will ensure your pet has a clean and safe environment free from any hazards. They will be observed to ensure their behaviour is not abnormal. Further, I will provide enrichment opportunities for your pet to ensure they are both mentally and physically fulfilled.

About: My wife and I have been around dogs our entire lives—we’ve both cared for them since we were kids, and that lifelong experience has given us a deep understanding of their needs, behaviors, and personalities. Over the years, we’ve become the go-to sitters for our family and friends, who trust us to look after their dogs with the same love and attention we give our own. We currently have a dog of our own who we care for with incredible passion and dedication and we would treat yours as if it's our own. We’re comfortable with dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes—from playful puppies to seniors who need a gentler pace. Whether it’s high-energy walks, giving medication, or just keeping a consistent routine, we’re committed to making every dog feel safe, happy, and loved while in our care. Pet care fits naturally into our routine and lifestyle. I own a landscaping company, but lately I’ve taken on less of a physical role and do most of my work from my home office—especially during the summer—so I’m available throughout the day to give pets plenty of attention, walks, and care. My wife is a teacher, which means she’s home full-time during the summer and available after school hours during the school year. In the winter, my landscaping business slows down, and I usually take on substitute teaching, which offers me a very flexible schedule. I’m able to adjust my availability around pet care needs, making sure your dog is never left alone for long and always gets the love and attention they deserve At our home, we have a large fully fenced-in yard that’s perfect for dogs of all sizes to run, play, and safely enjoy the outdoors. We make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and comfort, treating them like part of the family while they’re with us. Our home is clean, pet-friendly, and a calm, welcoming space for all animals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we’re clean, respectful, and always mindful that we’re guests in someone else’s space. I’m no stranger to working in other people’s homes and yards—my landscaping business has taught me the importance of professionalism, trust, and care when on someone else’s property. You can count on us to treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and responsibility

Caitlin C.
“Kaite has been an exceptional dog sitter for us, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She cared for my families three dogs with incredible patience and compassion, her gentle and calm demeanour put all of them at ease right away. My family has trusted Katie many times with pet sitting and she has displayed great critical thinking skills and insight into the nonverbal language of our dogs which has allowed her to be in tune with their needs. Katie handled many of the hurdles with dog care with grace and by making informed choices. When our senior dogs required extra care and medication Katie handled all their needs with great attention to detail. Highly recommended!!”

Emma is physically fit and energetic and loves to play with the dogs. Her belief is animals have rights too and they should be respected.

Casey W.
“Casey is an amazing care provider for our dog Chloe. She’s so attentive and treats her better than we do! And that’s saying something because we spoil Chloe. I can rest easy knowing Casey is going above and beyond caring for our dog while we’re away. Casey also has a family dog that she’s the primary caregiver for and I’ve see how well she cares for her dog Lucy. Outside of her ability to care for animals I have known Casey for almost 10 years now, and she is the most responsible kind and loyal person out there. Anyone would be lucky to hire her to care for their animals and could trust her in their home.”

“Aleksandra has helped take care of my little chihuahua on many occasions and I can’t ask for a better caregiver for him. He’s a nervous little boy and with her he’s as comfortable as with his own family. She’s so loving with him and loves to be with him as much as we do.
