About: My wife Abby and I are passionate dog lovers and we are proud parents of a 3-year-old mini Goldendoodle, Mochi. She has been with us since she was a 8 week old puppy. We love spending time with her—whether it's exploring trails, visiting dog parks, or simply some indoor fun, fetch the ball, hide and seek. When it's time to unwind, we all enjoy cuddling on the couch and watching TV together. Mochi is our family member, our kid. She is super friendly and loves other dogs. Our friends have relied on us to take care of their pups while they were away. We thus have hands-on experience caring for dogs of difference breeds and sizes, including a full-size Goldendoodle, Shiba Inu, Cockapoo, Westie and Pomeranian. Abby and me work as a team. So always somebody at home! We will send lots of photos or videos for update while your pup is staying with us! I’m fully home, which gives me the time and flexibility to provide attentive care for your pup throughout the day. On weekdays, we take Mochi out twice a day for 30 minutes each—once in the morning and again after work. If the weather is nice, we’ll also enjoy a midday walk to soak up some sunshine. In the summer evenings, we take Mochi to the dog park so they can socialize and play with other pups. After that, we wind down with some indoor fun, like a game of fetch or a cuddle session. On weekends, we love taking Mochi on trail walks, giving her a chance to explore new sights and smells while getting plenty of exercise. Whether it’s outdoor adventures or cozy indoor play, your pup will always be engaged and well cared for just like how we love Mochi! We have a fenced yard where pups can play and roam freely, and our super friendly dog Mochi is always up for a playdate! I work from home full-time, so your pup will never be left alone. To ensure the highest level of care, we only accept ONE dog per day, allowing us to focus entirely on their needs and provide lots of one-on-one attention.
“Thank you so much Cassidy !!! You were great. I will call for your services again. Very much appreaciate the punctuality and care you gave Billy .. he didn’t miss a beat thanks to you !!”

“Wendy was super caring and detail-oriented. She went beyond our expectation and our two cat boys loved her. Would definitely come back to Wendy when we need in future and would recommend her to whoever needs a cat sitter.”
“I apologize for my delayed review; I was busy catching up on my work. I was really pleased that Qian accepted my request, even though it was last minute. He came to check on Ray and my house within 30 minutes of my request before agreeing to it. He understood my instructions perfectly. He was also flexible enough to accommodate my request to change the time on the first day. For the actual service, he arrived right on time and took care of Ray as instructed, sending me pictures to reassure us. On the second day, he cleaned the litter box, communicated with me, and went upstairs to check on Ray to make sure he was okay. I'm very satisfied with the service and will definitely reach out again when I need pet sitting services.”
“She was the best, sent me pictures and my cat was so comfortable with her 😻 when she left she already had cleaned the litter box and as my cat makes a mess when he eats everywhere was so clean and mess free😸 thanks Nafise🫶🏻”

About: I have been dog sitting and dog walking for over a decade, I have worked for local businesses as a dog walker, I’ve been a dog owner for almost 8 years, and I know what dog need, love, attention, lots of walking, lots of petting, and someone that will care for them just like they were their own. My work is in the evenings between 3 PM and 8:30 PM, so I have lots of time during the day and lots of time at night to make sure that your little one is walked well and will be taken care of during the day while you’re at work! Whether it’s at your home or my home, my focus will be primarily on your furry friend, in a safe and happy environment so that they feel comfortable and it’s easy for them to adjust. I live near Mill Pond as well, so it would be a great opportunity to get a big walk around the pond!
About: Ive had a genuine love for pets since childhood. Even with having multiple cats at home, I would still find cats outside and bring them home to give them food and water. My friends have also trusted me with their pets due to my experience, and Ive never really met a pet that didn't like me as well. I care for my own pets (2 Russian blue cats), in between being a musician. I embrace their healing properties (Like their purring, that is even used for acoustic therapy for bone healing in humans!), I enjoy educating myself about what they need to thrive. My 2 cats (mom and her son) keep each other company daily, they both enjoy going outside but the little one only roams in the backyard when he feels like running around and munching on grass.
About: From cuddling with cats to playing fetch with dogs, I find deep satisfaction in providing attentive and loving care to furry friends of all shapes and sizes. Every pet has their own unique personality and preferences, and I take great pride in tailoring my services to ensure each one feels happy, comfortable, and loved in their owner's absence. I am very flexible in terms of scheduling. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into both my daily and weekly routines, reflecting a commitment to ensuring the well-being and happiness of the pets under my care. Caring for pets, whether in my own home or at a client's residence, involves a comprehensive approach tailored to the specific needs of each animal. In my home, I ensure a safe and comfortable environment by setting up designated areas for rest, play, and meals. Daily routines include regular feeding times, ample fresh water, and opportunities for exercise and mental stimulation through walks, play sessions, and interactive toys. For clients' homes, I prioritize maintaining a consistent routine as closely aligned with the pets' usual schedule as possible. This includes adhering to feeding times, administering medications if necessary, and ensuring the environment remains clean and secure.
About: I’ve been a cat owner for over 10 years—starting when I was just 6 years old and continuing throughout my senior year of high school. Currently, I own an Akita-Husky mix dog, whom I’ve cared for since he was 8 weeks old, thus giving me hands-on experience with puppies and house-training. Recently, I did a 2-week housesitting stay caring for a 15-year-old senior dog. In addition, I volunteer at PetSmart, helping look after stray and feral cats of all ages, including kittens, in their pet enclosure. Ultimately, I’m both a cat and dog lover. I enjoy caring for pets of all personality types—including feistier cats—as well as all breeds and sizes, from small to large. Currently have plenty of time to dedicate to looking after pets, specifically for walking (for dogs), feeding, playing with, and caring for them. It’s my priority to ensure the pets feel loved and cared for. With my current flexible schedule, I am available for several days of the week providing dog walking services, housesitting stay-overs, and drop-in visits. When caring for pet’s for housesitting, I always aim to follow their routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, walked or let out as needed, and give plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they enjoy that). I respect the client’s space and keep the house clean and tidy. For drop-ins and dog walking, I focus on making each visit and walk a positive experience for the pet(s). Walks are thus tailored to the dog’s energy levels and needs, whether it’s a short stroll or active playtime. I also pay attention to weather conditions and use proper gear to ensure their safety. I always take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and comfort level—whether they’re shy, energetic, or somewhere in between—so they feel calm and cared for while their owner is away.
About: Before I was born my parents had a litter of kittens, I came into the world with a big family of pets! I’ve never known life without a full house of cats and dogs. I know when my pets need space and when they need love. Personality is important, animals differ so much. Being around animals so much has given me a lot of insight into how pets work. I have a very excitable French bulldog and some very sassy cats, they all require their own different needs but I love them all! I have full availability during the day Monday- Friday, I can make time any time for any pet care needs! I am finishing up my school semester but have a lot of free time during the day. I have a fenced off back yard for my dogs, they can be let out when they need to play and run around. They have scheduled eating times twice a day. My cats all have timed food as well and are very pampered (they do not follow rules very well), so sometimes they eat when they want.
“Padi is very professional and nice to interactwith. She checked in when expected and sent many pictures at each visit. She was a true piece of mind. I will not hesitate to use her service again in the future.”

Sophia S.
“Sophia Salinas is a bright enthusiastic young woman. She seems to have a special affinity for animals, particularly cats and dogs. She works as a volunteer at Petsmart and often sends me photos of the cats she is playing with. Recently Sophia went to New York City to babysit a relative's dog for 2 weeks. The dog became so attached to her that, when they were not walking or playing, he would curl up for a nap in her suitcase. But Sophia's best training for working with animals came when her own family acquired a puppy. Not just any puppy - an Akita Huskey mix. This dog is a handful, believe me. But Sophia persevered - teaching him simple tricks like sit, heel, and lie down. She took him for walks, short ones at first, and then gradually going farther afield. After some perseverance, she is now in full control and the dog obeys her without question. He also likes her to cuddle with him on the floor.”

Lubbi has taken great care of Demia. I really appreciate her effort of trying to meet and play with my shy cat. Thank you! 😻
