“Bernie had such a lovely time with the crew! Kim and Jeff were so lovely, patient, and kind to him. We received plenty of photo and text updates throughout the day, which made us feel so confident about leaving our fur baby with separation anxiety in their care. Highly recommend ?”

About: I've had dogs and pets in some capacity or another throughout my life and have loved being Sister-2-Legs to each of my four-legged siblings. I have cared for a variety of animals from young to old, mostly cats and dogs, a bird, and a few rabbits. More recently, it's been a mix of senior dogs and puppies. I'm used to balancing puppy training versus the possible complex needs of senior dogs. My own sweet spaniel passed last year, and he lost both his sight and his hearing as he aged, which presented a few challenges but was a very valuable learning experience. I'm comfortable with all ages and stages of life and love spoiling every single furred family member I care for. I adapt my schedule around your pet's needs and routines. Please message me for schedule details. I may be able to offer drop-ins, walks, or daycare either in your home or at my doggy daycare outside of the time slots listed. Daycare: My yard is fully fenced with a grass area for all kinds of running and toy play time. Everyone is welcome to sprawl out on the furniture both indoors and outside. Your dog is given as much attention and love as if they were my own. I look forward to welcoming new furry friends! Housesitting: My preference for my animals has always been to keep them in their home environment where they feel the most safe and secure. I will follow all their daily routines and any other directions provided and treat their space as if it were my own. Depending on your preference, hikes, beach trips, and other special activities can be added to the daily standards of belly rubs, walkies, and cuddles. As I also have a doggy daycare, it would be great if your pets are dog-friendly and able to participate in daycare during our stay!

“MaryCatherine is AMAZING! This was my first time taking my dog a sitter so I was bit nervous, but once Buddy got there I knew he would be in great hands. She shared videos through the day to share how his day was going (which also gave me comfort). I would HIGHLY recommend her.”

“Anna and Jason are wonderful. They took great care of Shakespeare, followed care instructions perfectly, and sent us pictures and video. Shakespeare clearly had a wonderful time with them and their sweet pup. We would recommend Anna and Jason to everyone.”

“We are so lucky to have Briana to watch our pup. Hersh is very comfortable and loves spending time with her! Having peace of mind when you’re away from your fur baby is important to us so Briana is our go-to! We always enjoy the pics/vids she sends of Hershel ♥️”

“Our dog Lyra has stayed with Natalia for daycare twice now. She is quick to respond, provides lots of updates, and takes great care of our dog. Lyra came home happy and tired both times. She has a backyard for the dogs to play in, and her front yard is also fenced for extra security. I'd recommend Natalia and plan to book with her again!”

“Kai and I enjoyed Chawntea so much that we rebooked. As a first time furbaby mom it’s hard to just leave my baby with anyone. I am so glad to have found her.”

Maureen S.

“This was the first time I brought Charcoal with Rosa, she is kind and at the end of each day it was seen that Charcoal had been comfortable. Rosa answered messages quickly and sent photos of our dog. Of course I would take Charcoal with her again. She also speaks Spanish which was a plus.”

“Lily is a wonderful sitter that loves my dog as if she were her own! I would definitely reach out to Lily if I need care for Nyxie again. You will not regret asking her to care for your beloved pup ❤️ Thanks so much Lily!”

Jamie R.

“Megan accepted a drop in visit in advance of two upcoming overnight stays to help acclimate Bailey to being in a new environment. Megan is loving and caring towards Bailey and really made her feel comfortable while in her care. It’s nice to find someone you trust to care for your dog when needed, and Megan is that person for us.”

“My 80lb bernedoodle had such a great time playing with a Bruno, Zo's dog, all day. He seemed very happy and tired when I picked him up. Would return!”

About: I care for pets like my own. I go above and beyond and make sure they are clean and happy. I love taking the dogs I care for on long walks and I also enjoy playing with them, and giving them attention through a good 'ole fashioned belly rub. I am happily retired and love animals. My husband and I were pet owners to a beautiful spunky, honey-colored Pomeranian, named Daisy. Sadly she passed away in 2021 after 13 beautiful years together. I haven't replaced her since. I dog/pet sit for my friends' dogs on occasion. Pet sitting helps fill the void of my Daisy and I would like to do it more for those that may need it. My friends and family entrust me with their pets because they know I will care for them as my own. When I dog sit, I give them attention, play with them, and take them on walks. If I'm not taking them for a walk around the neighborhood or the local park, I have a backyard for them to handle their immediate business. I have a fenced backyard, a spacious living room and a large bonus room that is connected to our living room that allows dogs space to roam around. And if requested, I can also administer medications or have your dog sleep in their crate, if needed.

“Diana made us feel very comfortable that our dog Soulja was in good hands during our vacation. She would send photos and video of Soulja having a great time. We are grateful to have Diana to take care of our Soulja . T. Summerhill”

“Lilian has been amazing with my pup Pepper who is in her super hyper teenage phase. Thank you Lilian for taking Pepper on hikes and also introducing her to so many of your other fabulous pup clients.”

About: As a proud dog mom to a playful 7-year-old Husky and a sweet 10-year-old Chihuahua, I understand that every dog has unique needs at every stage of life. I’m also the trusted go-to sitter for my family and friends—whether it's caring for energetic puppies or giving extra love and attention to senior dogs. You can count on me to treat your pet like my own, with patience, compassion, and lots of tail wags. I’m currently “micro-retired,” which means I have plenty of free time and flexibility to dedicate to your furry family members. Whether your pet needs constant supervision, scheduled feedings, playtime, or quiet companionship, I can fully accommodate their needs. Your pet’s care is my priority, and I’ve got the time and heart to match. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible. I’ll ask for all the important details—Are they indoor or outdoor? When do they eat? How much exercise do they need? Any allergies or special instructions?—because consistency is key to keeping your pup happy, healthy, and comfortable. Their safety and well-being always come first.

About: With 20 years as a dog mom and 30+ years as a real mom, caring for others is second nature. Recently laid off, my flexible schedule lets me give your pup the love and attention they deserve. I am fluent in Spanish if ever necessary. My schedule is completely open any day of the week and at any time, giving me the flexibility to dedicate full attention to your pet's needs and care. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. At my home, I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for your pup to play, relax, or go potty. I also have a friendly older small dog who gets along well with all pups, creating a welcoming environment. When I visit a client’s home, I do so with caution and respect, ensuring both your pet and home are in good hands. I follow your pet’s routines and needs closely, keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable.
