1. Jesus D.

“I returned to a very happy dog after a stay with Jesus. Jesus was very easy to work with, and anytime I need a sitter, I’ll be calling Jesus for sure! From the beginning, Jesus was very responsive. I could tell from our first interaction that he loved animals, and my baby would be safe with him. As it was my first time using a sitter, I was so pleased that Jesus keep me so updated throughout her stay. He sent me pictures and videos every day. I would highly recommend Jesus for your dog sitting needs!”

3. Ana & Byron C.

“This is my first time having someone outside of my family watch my fur baby. Kanesiha was so good with my dog. She sent messages videos and pictures to keep me up to date on my dog. She will be my go to sitter”


5. Angelo T.

“We have had our two dogs stay with Angelo and Dawn before and it’s the best decision we made on who will care for them when we are out of town. They are so very kind and accommodating, and are very quick to respond to messages. They send multiple videos throughout the day and are excellent with their care, including special feeding guidelines and supplements. We live about 30 minutes away from them, but the drive is worth it for the best care for our babies. They provide superior care and love your babies as their own. So grateful for them!”

9. Rachael R.
About: I have been caring for animals most of my life. As both an animal lover and as a handler. I became a professional pet sitter after being recommended by colleagues that evolved into now clients who travel often. My gift is that I understand the unique emotional life of the animals which means maintaining a peaceful environment so they feel safe while away from you. I have administered medications as well as helped injured animals and pet sat geriatric pets up to the age of 17 as well. I am a writer and a fitness professional, I love to cook and be outdoors. My schedule is flexible and pet care is second nature for me. I do both in home and out of home pet care depending on the need and longevity of the sit. Prefer to house them myself because of the yard and dog friendly environment. I have experience with extended stays —30 plus days as well.


10. Raquel F.

“Raquel was very accommodating in keeping my baby Chase. She gave me updates and sent pics for the days she kept him. Even though Chase isn't completely housebroken, she was very patient with him. Chase enjoyed his stay with Raquel and her baby Cairo. I will definitely be using her in the near future. Thank you again”


11. Iman M.

“Iman made me feel comfortable while away for 7 days. I received videos and pictures and my Jax looked really happy while he stayed with her. I intend to book her again.”


12. Olga M.

“Olga was wonderful! She took very good care of our baby Max! This was our first time leaving him and I was very nervous. But Olga kept us updated throughout the days with pictures and updates of how he was doing everyday. Would definitely use her again next time we go out of town”




13. Candace C.

“We were very happy with Ridley's stay at Candace's house. He had a medical issue pop up right before our trip and she took such good care of him. We received updates and photos almost daily, which ease our mind. We will definitely use Candace again to watch our dog.”


14. Chloe K.

“I can't say enough good things about Chloe! She took such amazing care of Teddy while we were away, providing multiple daily updates that really put my mind at ease. It was clear from the pictures and messages that Teddy was in great hands and having a blast. What truly set her apart was her willingness to go above and beyond when our plans suddenly changed. She not only adjusted her schedule but also graciously helped by dropping Teddy off at a family member's house. Her kindness, flexibility, and genuine care were outstanding. I highly recommend Chloe to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and thoughtful dog sitter!”


15. Jenevieve R.

17. Ann J.
