“Lynn is amazing! She has become my go to dog sitter! Millie absolutely loves her and is always so excited to spend time with her! I constantly feel confident that my baby is well taken care of and happy!”

“Matilda was great with our dog. Miley (our Dog) is extremely nervous but seemed to warm right up to Matilda and her two dogs. She will definitely be my first choice for any future booking needs; she was amazing.”

About: I currently only take one dog (or dog family) per night! This makes for a relaxed environment that we all enjoy. I have always loved animals, and I have had a variety of pets over the years from dogs to cats and more. I fell in love with being the best "dog auntie" ever, and that's how I got started as a dog sitter. I have no dogs or cats at the moment, as I work my way towards a small backyard farm. Dogs love my yard!!! Come for a meet and greet! I love to spend time in our yard with the garden, and of course our visiting dogs. I work from home as a parent and family coach, and I'm working towards my certification in Collaborative and Proactive Solutions. My kids also homeschool, so we are all here a lot. My kids love animals as much as I do (although somehow I still do all the work LOL), and we love to welcome your critters into our home. We like to welcome our doggy guests like a member of the family for their stay with us. I board / pet sit in my home. I have a 6-ft fence around my backyard. There is one section that measures closer to 5 ft. I always do a meet and greet before having a dog stay. Dogs must be up to date in vaccines. I have a variety of dog toys and dog beds and water bowls and feeding bowls. I can rearrange things depending on who is staying with us. I only host one dog (or dog family) per night. **I CAN accomodate more than one dog from the same family!! Message me if this applies.**


“She was compassionate, thoughtful and considerate. She sent us the cutest pic to put our minds at ease while we spent the day at the zoo until it was time to check into put rooms. I am very happy and grateful that something like this exists. I was also pleased that she didn’t have any restrictions like spayed/neutered only. Two thumbs up! :)”


About: I am the go to Dogsitter for all my friends so I thought might as well make it a side gig! I have a Belgian malinois mix who is fantastic with dogs and is ecstatic when his friends stay over. Our house is extremely dog friendly - fenced in yard, allowed on furniture, doggy water fountains etc. We also just started documenting some of our pet sitting on insta - @sitstaywed check us out! I work from home and already have a walking/feeding/playing routine with my dog. My house has a yard too so they will have free reign during my meetings! We leave the door open and the backyard is completely fenced in. My yard is fenced and I also have a Furbo camera to monitor if I am notified of any barking while I am gone - plus it throws treats!

“Bruna was great!”


“Rasha was amazing and went above and beyond for Coco washing her bed after she has an accident and sending lots of photos. I would definitely use Rasha again and can tell she’s a dog lover, not someone just in it for the income.”


“Madeira and Dean were awesome! They arranged a meet and greet prior to our scheduled date for dog sitting so that Peaty could meet their pup. They took great care of our dog Peaty, providing us updates and photos to let us know he was doing well. Peaty came home super tired and quickly fell asleep. Glad to know he was in good hands.”


“Our first doggy day care with Miranda and Evan went so smoothly. Hannah is a sensitive girl but she was doing very well under their care. Yuma too! I highly recommend and will book more days with them!”


About: Hi, I’m Hazy! Nurturance, love and care are what I lead with when caring for your pet. With my therapeutic background, I focus on bringing comfort and well-being to your loved fur babies. I specialize in caring for your pet holistically, including physical movement, outdoor time to connect with nature, and emotional attunement. I have experience with sensitive dogs, shy cats, and high energy bundles of love. I have cared for fur babies post-surgery and administered medicine, along with grooming, walking, and cooking specialized diets. I bring warmth to those experiencing the turbulence of anxiety and offer a safe place when environmental factors become overwhelming. I look forward to connecting with you and your furry loved ones and providing individualized care. Please feel free to reach out with any inquiries! I am currently prioritizing pet care, so your fur babies will receive all the love they need! I enjoy taking the pups out throughout the day to get lots of sunshine, walks, and smells. I'll intermittently pop out to run a few errands, go to meetings and appointments (usually for just a few hours at a time), but will frequently be in the home with your loved ones, so can provide medication, playtime, snuggles, or whatever your furry family members need. When boarding fur babies, I like to follow as close to routine as they are use to. This includes walks (time and distance), eating schedules, potty breaks, and socialization. I find this consistency helps reduce anxiety and makes for a smoother transition. We have a four year old bull terrier at home who loves other dogs. I like to go slow with interactions to allow all pups to have the most positive experience possible. This might include a scaffold approach but is highly customizable depending on your preferences and your pups comfort level. Our dog is crate trained, so if I need to step out for a few moments, she's really comfortable hanging in her crate for a bit (she loves it!). For walks, I like to follow the dogs lead. Some pups have LOTS of energy and are ready to run, so I'll jog along side them. Others need to go really slow, so I'm happy to mosey along and take in the scene. I like to allow them to smell as much as they want, for some good mental stimulation, paired with the amount of exercise that suits them. I want to learn all about your furry family member to individualize the care I provide to them and ensure all parties have smiles on their face and warmth in their hearts.

“Awesome sitter! 2nd time having her take care of harley and it was really nice that she’s able to be really flexible! Also awesome at communication ❤️ my harley loved staying and playing with her and her pup! Will definitely come back next time 😄”


“Natty was extremely friendly and took excellent care of our fur baby. She kept us posted how she was doing by sending lots of pictures. We will be booking Natty whenever we visit San Diego. Actually, we have another day booked today with her.”


About: NEW CLIENTS PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING 1. Bookings and Meet & Greets must be scheduled at least two weeks prior to requested booking dates. I do not take last-minute bookings. 2. Please have a filled-out bio for your pet if it is empty. 3. A paid day trial is necessary (for new clients) for stays exceeding 4 days to ensure your pet will be comfortable and a good fit for our home. 4. Due to the presence of neighboring walls, we are unable to accept pets that exhibit barking/whining behavior (when we leave the house) to prevent potential noise complaints. 5. Dogs must be crate-trained or comfortable staying in a designated open space with a gate (only when we are away from the house or for overnight sleeping). 6. Proof of updated vaccinations is required. 7. Drop-off and pick-up times must be exact; no time windows. 8. We may be away for up to 4 hours on weekends; your pet must be comfortable being alone during that time. ----HOURS OF OPERATION---- SUN- THURS: 8 AM - 9:30 PM New client drop-offs are not accepted after 6 pm. We want them to have some time to settle in. Dogs must be picked up on time, or a $15/hour late fee will apply. If your dog is not picked up by 9:30 pm, you'll need to pick them up the next day, and an extra night’s boarding fee will be charged (see rates for details). *IMPORTANT* I know that unfortunate events can occur like flight delays, check bags, traffic, etc. Please try to provide extra time in your booking request in order to prevent additional late fees. CARING FOR YOUR PET 💕 🐶 I understand how important your pet is, and while they’re in my care, they’ll receive plenty of love, attention, and care. I know being away from your pet can be tough, so I’ll make sure to send you updates and pictures to keep you connected ☺️. We currently only care for one dog (small size) at a time including our own pet Sophie. This is great is your dog is timid and tends get overwhelmed in a new environment and with a lot of other dogs around. We work from home, so your pet will always be supervised. When we leave the house, we place them in a designated area with a pet gate and monitor them through a camera. — ABOUT ME — Hi! I’m Thi and I have always had an absolute adoration for dogs! I’ve been a dog momma for a little over 25 years now (since I was a young child). I grew up being surrounded by dogs and have experience working with different breeds of all sizes. My partner and I currently have a sweet senior German Shepard Chow Chow, Sophie — you probably thought was still a puppy if you met her. She loves playing with small dogs but enjoys sleeping most of the time. Oh - and eating of course! ----HOURS OF OPERATION---- SUN- THURS: 8 AM - 9:30 PM New client drop-offs are not accepted after 6 pm. We want them to have some time to settle in.

About: Looking for a furry friend for our 10month old Malshi, Bo 🐶. I live with my mom whos watches over our crazy puppy. She wants to adopt another dog so that Bo doesn't get lonely, but instead, I got her a side hustle This will be for my retired stayhome mom, Erin, and our puppy, Bo, who loves dogs and takes four walks a day. Any small to medium size dogs are welcome. I live in a multi level home in a quiet and safe neighborhood. There won't be any loud noise or heavy traffic which will be a safe place for your furries.

“Abigale is amazing! I have been looking for a trusted sitter and finally found one! Updates me, cares for my furbaby, and makes it all a very easy going comfortable process!”


About: Hi Puppy Parents!! My name is Shelby and I have owned and taken care of several animals for over the years from a 19 year old senior dog with special needs to a pregnant cat and her newborn babies! I've worked with many different dog breeds, from Cane Corsos to Chihuahuas and have loved my time with all of them! I'm currently working part time and so have ample time to socialize and engage with your pups! I absolutely LOVE playing and working with dogs, right now I am really enjoying training my new rescue! I live in a 1,000+ square feet condo with plenty of room to run and play. Your pup will have access to plenty of outdoor activities as I have a dog park in my complex as well as several hiking trails and other dog parks super close by! I like to bring my dog to one big activity a day whether it is a hike or going to the dog park to get out some energy. We would love it if your pup would want to join us for those activities but if they prefer to stay home that’s totally fine too! And then we do TONS of enrichment activities afterwards to stimulate his super smart and mischievous brain! I do not have a yard because I am on the second story but I have a fenced in deck my dog loves to soak up the sun on! I take my puppy out every hour/hour and a half on a little walk around the complex (.5 miles). Depending on your pups specific needs we could make these walks longer or shorter! :) I am working part time, only 3 days a week as a respite care provider, so I have ample time to play and love on your pup! I have a 13 month old puppy to keep your dog company if they are interested, but can also be separated as my pup is crate trained and we have 2 big bedrooms that they can have their own space in if need be! Taken out for potty breaks at least every hour/hour and a half! Please let me know your pups daily routine so that I can make this transition as easy as possible for them. If your pet has any specific needs, the more I know the better, I can provide and care for your baby!! :)

She has watched our three amazing dogs (ages 5-10) multiple times while we’ve traveled, and I have never felt more at ease knowing my "kids" were not just being cared for, but truly loved. Hazel goes above and beyond in every way—spending extra time with them, sending thoughtful updates and adorable pictures, and even surprising them with extra treats! What truly sets Hazel apart is her incredible attention to detail. She genuinely cares about their well-being and even takes note if something seems off, which gives me so much peace of mind. She is my absolute go-to for dog sitting! If you want to travel stress-free knowing your pups are in the best hands, look no further. Thank you SO much, Hazel—you are a treasure! 🐾💛”
