“Taylor was an excellent boarder for my dog! She is professional, reliable, responsible, and kind. She paid incredible attention to all of my care instructions, took the time to ensure my dog’s comfort and ease, communicated well and promptly, and she kept me updated with photos and cute anecdotes. Taylor’s home is also well kept and very tidy. I would not hesitate to book with her again and I would recommend Taylor’s services without hesitation.”


“Cooper had a great Christmas with Brittany! He was cuddled and loved on and got plenty of time playing fetch. I got the cutest pictures every day and it made me feel so relieved knowing Cooper was safe an being loved!”

“This was my first time using a sitter, and Vanessa was terrific! We got daily updates and pictures, and my pup was kept busy! He’s pretty much been sleeping since we got home. 😊”

“Diego was wonderful watching our dog while we were out of town. He shared photos and videos, and ensured she got lots of fun and playtime. Would definitely consider having Diego dog sit again!”


“Karisa was amazing to work with! She was very responsive, sent me photos and updates, and even asked some questions that I didn’t think to! I love how careful and thorough she was, and my pup didn’t want to leave after ? they also have a lot of yard around the area, great for dogs to run around. Highly recommend!”
“Lori was absolutely awesome! We left our dog Jack with her for the first time for 14 days and he did great! He came back to us happy and healthy! Lori sent us pictures and updates every day. She followed all our directions and kept him comfortable and safe. We definitely recommend her for any of your dog sitting needs! Thank you Lori!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up with dogs, cats, birds, fish, rodents, and farm animals. Caring for pets has always been a normal part of life for me, both through my own animals and through pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. Over the years I’ve raised my own puppies and kittens, cared for senior pets, and managed medications and special care needs. One of my own dogs (German Shepherd Dog) was diagnosed with cancer at a young age, and I cared for him throughout treatment until he passed away at age four. That experience taught me how important consistency, patience, and close attention can be when a pet isn’t feeling their best. I also currently care for my senior dog who requires medication. Today I have a labradoodle that I’ve had since he was a puppy, two cats, and my senior dog. I take pride in training my dogs to be well-behaved and socialized. In addition to dogs and cats, as stated previously, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals including lizards, snakes, chickens, rodents, fish, a sun conure parrot, horses, donkeys, alpacas, and pigs. I know every animal is different, and I do my best to learn their routines, personalities, and quirks so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet is young and energetic, elderly, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I am a career biochemical scientist and lost my job in April. I am now having a blast working as a full-time stay at home mom. My 1 year old son also loves pets and would need to occasionally accompany me! I am available pretty much around the clock. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I will follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any household rules you’ve established to the best of my ability. I know that consistency helps pets feel comfortable and reduces stress while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I will make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, fresh water, and companionship. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. In my own home, pets are treated like part of the family. I maintain a safe, clean environment and supervise interactions carefully. I currently have a friendly labradoodle and two cats, so I’m very accustomed to managing different personalities, energy levels, and care needs.
“Martine and Ronald are TOP NOTCH!!!! We couldn’t be happier with their loving care, communicativeness, and flexibility. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!! Sincerely, Brad, Danielle, and Pebbles”

“Kelly was awesome! This was my first time boarding my dog Finn with her. We had just recently moved to the area but still needed to take care of a lot of things out of town. Kelly was able to do a meet and greet with us beforehand and it went great. She has a huge fenced in yard for all the dogs to roam around in and play, and Finn fit in well with her and her dogs. During Finn's actual stay, he got comfortable in her home and made new friends with both the resident and visiting dogs. Kelly made sure to send me pictures and videos throughout his stay too, which I very much appreciated. It was obvious to me that Finn was well taken care of and that Kelly genuinely loves all the dogs in her care. She was also very accommodating with the drop off and pick up times. I will definitely bring Finn back to stay with her the next time there is a need. Thanks again Kelly! Finn will miss you, Miska, Ruby, and all the other dogs who came to play! :)”
“Arden was the best! She sent photos and videos of Troy where he looked very happy and relaxed with her. She took such great care of Troy and loved on him as if he was her own. I will certainly use her again, thanks so much Arden!”

“Over all great! Took great care of my dog and updated me on her well being throughout the whole night! Even made her a scarf which was also so sweet! 10/10 recommend!!!!!!!”

“Yamy & Alfonso the absolute best pet sitters! My precious Leo was super happy, loved, cared for daily. Communication was beyond excellent and I felt super happy and relieved on my trip. Since I knew my baby Leo was in great hands. Thank you so much for everything ❤️”

“Sloane was so great with our pup, Sass! Sass is dog reactive and so it is difficult finding people that are comfortable with handling a dog with such personality, but Sloane did everything right. She also kept great communication with me throughout my trip, and made sure Sass was constantly entertained and comfortable. Sloane is a new safe space for Sass and I could not be more thankful!”

“Molly did a great job looking after my dog on his initial visit. He was very happy and calm when I picked him up indicating he was in a very comfortable environment while i was away. Definitely will rebook with Molly on next opportunity.”


“Hannah took great care of Roxy. She gave me daily updates on Roxy and pictures. Will definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”

“Mariel and Teresa did an exceptional job watching my dog Ruby for an extended stay! While she is not a runner, it was reassuring that they put an AirTag on her in the case she got lost. They were very communicative and sent both pictures and videos regularly to help me feel connected to my pup while I was away. I would absolutely recommend them because you can feel their warmth and love for animals as soon as you meet them. I will certainly reach out again when in need.”

Awesome as always. Stella had an amazing time, and she had thorough and attentive care for a minor medical issue she experienced during this stay. Couldn’t ask for her to be in better hands when this happened! I was informed every step of the way about what was going on, and Nickie took care of Stella like she was her own.

Sloane took wonderful care of Otis over the weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She sent comprehensive updates and tons of pictures throughout the stay, which put my mind completely at ease. Otis had a blast playing with a Doodle, who was also in her care. He came home happy and clearly well cared for. Sloane was also incredibly flexible and easy to work with from start to finish. I'd highly recommend her and would book with her again in a heartbeat.

When I first saw Tammy's picture I was like she is a dog lover! And she was genuinely smiling and I was right. She is a sweet lady with a love for her animals. Thank you Tammy for taking care of our Bruce. He came back sweet and very mild tempered. We really appreciate you for taking him in on short notice when we left on our way to Tennessee for a few days. May your business boost tremendously and God bless you. It was a pleasure to meet you. 😊💖🐶

I chose Yuexin due to close proximity and also having a puppy the same age as my dog. I thought that she could provide the care and love that my dog gets at home plus having another dog friend. Yuexin was very responsive and sent updated pictures everyday per my request. I loved this because you always worry if your dog is adjusting well while gone for so long. She took great care of my dog and that gave me piece of mind. She had so much fun and immediately felt comfortable in her home. I would definitely use her again and recommend her.
