About: Hi there! My name is Gabi and I have about 10 years of pet care experience. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors! I have spent time working at boarding facilities where I administered all kinds of medications and kept up with individual dogs’ feeding schedules. I genuinely enjoy walking dogs and being active, but also don’t mind if your pup is more of a couch potato that just wants some company. Whatever their needs, I’ll be there for them AND you! I’m a county employee so I do work full time, but on the days that you schedule me, I’ll be completely available to you! I also understand that sometimes life happens and I’m more than willing to be flexible when needed! Each dog is an individual and I like to take my time getting to know each dog I work with. I have previous experience working at a behavioral center for dogs, so if your dog is fearful or maybe even a little reactive here and there, that’s totally okay! I will always take the time to connect with your dog on their timeline
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 17, and over the years I’ve had the joy of caring for all kinds of animals big and small. From playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I’ve done it all. I’m also experienced in giving medication when needed, and I truly love providing comfort, care, and companionship to every furry friend I meet. I work three days a week, which leaves me with plenty of free time to dedicate to pet sitting. It fits perfectly into my routine, and I love having the flexibility to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for animals to relax and play. I live in a quiet, pet-welcoming neighborhood with minimal traffic, making it great for walks and outdoor time. Whether your pet loves lounging or being active, they’ll feel right at home here.
“Jaclyn was so great with our 3 kitties. We have one special needs cat with unique requirements and she handled him flawlessly! She provided updates and photos and we felt so comfortable leaving our fur babies with her. We would recommend her to all of our friends.”
About: I have taken care of not only my dog but have friends who relied on me to feed and to walk their dog(s) as well. I'm currently in school but I am able to help out during evenings throughout the week. I am also free on Friday mornings as well. I can help feed the pets if I'm needed. I can walk them around the neighborhood, dog parks if that's ok, or even go on hikes.
“Amy was punctual, communicative, and my dog was really tired when I got home! I appreciated Amy's attention to detail. It was well worth the peace of mind to have Amy drop in for my dog.”
About: Love dogs, and I want to be a dog aunt! I've cared for friends' dogs for overnight stays. I especially like taking them on hikes! Grew up with cats, they're special creatures -in a good way! I work as an environmental consultant as well as a hiking guide for a local hotel, and my schedule is usually flexible! I usually start and end my own day with walks! Animals are part of the family and should be treated that way. In my client's home, I follow what is the norm for the pet so they feel the most comfortable!
“Today was my second booking with Anna, and my little pup was back in his happy place again. As before, Anna was prompt and professional, and most importantly took such great care of my little guy. I think he may have a new best friend. She took care of him, gave him lots of petting and belly rubs, and sent lots of pictures of their playtime. I would recommend Anna to anyone looking for a great caretaker for their favorite furry friend. I will absolutely book again!”
About: What truly sets me apart is the level of personal care, attention, and genuine connection I bring to every animal I care for. I don’t just “watch” pets—I bond with them, learn their personalities, and treat them like my own. I prioritize trust, safety, and consistency, making sure your pet feels secure and loved whether you’re gone for a few hours or a few days. With experience starting at a young caring for a wide range of animals—from dogs and cats to more unique companions—I’m well-versed in animal behavior and creating a calm, nurturing environment. I also go the extra mile with regular updates, photos, and personalized routines to give both you and your pet peace of mind. I am a stay at home mom who also works remote. Aside from some appointments and some prior obligations here and there, I have an open schedule I enjoy going on walks and doing stop in check ups/care on pets as needed. I have a baby and odds are she will be with me. Please let me know if your pet is not child friendly so I can plan accordingly. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I aim to create a calm, familiar environment that keeps routines intact and stress levels low. I follow each pet’s specific schedule—feeding times, medications, playtime, and cuddle time—just as you would, ensuring they feel safe, secure, and loved while you’re away. I respect your space, and always provide updates with photos so you never feel far from your pet. During walks, I focus on more than just exercise—I make sure your pet gets mental stimulation, time to sniff and explore, and lots of positive reinforcement. I tailor every walk to your pet’s age, energy level, and personality, whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an energetic outing. Safety is my top priority, and I’m always alert, leash-conscious, and prepared for any situation.

“I had never used a pet sitting service before and was a little nervous not only to have a stranger watch my pets but have a stranger in my home. I must say that Clinton put me at ease he did a wonderful job and would certainly use him again in the future. He sent me pictures of my pets everyday which made me feel better. Thank you, Clinton!”
About: I have owned dogs for the last 6 years, fostered several and helped find happy homes for them. What I am able to give dogs is love, attention, and just being present with them.

Love to go on hikes, play frisbee and chuck-it! Summertime running through sprinklers, and wintertime running in the snow. I also love Cats! I grew up with cats and just adore them. I work Monday - Friday. Weekends off, which leaves me all weekend to sit, play or board your furry friends. I hike every weekend so other dogs will fit right in.

If they board with me, I can crate your pup or not. Plenty of toys, balls, and frisbees. Dog door to backyard if you wish it to be used or can be closed for safety. Gated neighborhood for walking! I would like to have a free "meet and greet" to get to know you and your pets.

“Super kind, patient and loving towards crazy puppy Kevin! Left our house better than she found it and was super accommodating. Thanks Denise! Will be rebooking”
Gabriela V.
“There is no other person I would trust more with my dogs/pets than Gabi. Not only has she watched my dog multiple times, but I have also had the pleasure of seeing her work and train her own and others, as well as give gold star care. She is thorough and thoughtful and also has an eye for details. I was never concerned that Petrie wasn’t getting attention as she communicated consistently with updates, as well as noting any concerns that arose. She also has a knack for nervous or shy dogs, and really enjoys giving them a soothing and peaceful experience. I have heard Gabi say multiple times that, “there’s no such thing as a bad dog. They just need someone to speak their language.” If you want your mind to be at ease that your dog will be happy, given medications appropriately, and will have the best walk of their lives, I assure you’re making a great decision choosing Gabi.”
Kinan C.Star Sitter
“Kinan was an absolute gem! I left my home in his care for two weeks and returned to a spotless house and even a few thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and a handwritten note. He took great care of everything plants watered, mail collected, and even handled a small plumbing issue with grace and calm. It was such a relief to travel knowing my home was in such capable, respectful hands. I’d recommend him in a heartbeat!”

Emilly D.
“While I always hate leaving my dog, Emilly makes it so much easier. Emilly had my dog for two nights and she seemed to love it. The space was clean, and my pup didn't seem starved for attention when I picked her up. Emilly genuinely cares for these dogs. Puts me at ease when I have to leave town. Great price too!”
Elvia G.
“Elvis is great! Everything you'd want in a host - very responsive, flexible about timing for drop-off and pick-up, and a genuine animal lover. She sent adorable pictures of Marley during his stay, and when I picked him I could tell he'd had a good time and been in great hands :) I will definitely use Elvia again to watch Baxter and would recommend her to others in the DogVacay community!”

I would recommend Abby 10000 times if I could! We have a particular dog, and she was willing to do a thorough meet and greet to make him, and us, as comfortable as possible. She did so well with him he even let her pet him, which isn’t common! We wil definitely be rebooking her!
