“Hazel was AMAZING! Our pups were in such great hands and she was so communicative through the entire process, we will definitely be using her for our dog sitting needs again! She was so gentle and gracious, even sitting with our more anxious bernadoodle at meal times to make sure she was comfortable and bringing approved treats over for our pets! We are so grateful for her and our dogs are looking forward to seeing her again!!”


“Jade was super responsive and took great care of my pup! When I asked if she was able to watch my dog longer than the original booking, she did not hesitate to say yes. I would definitely use Jade again.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds and have been dog sitting since high school. I have one dog now and love to take her on walks, to the beach, and for puppycinos! I currently work from home M-F and am up early and stay up late! I take walks throughout the day, so might as well bring a fur friend along with! I have one cat and one dog who get along well with each other. Both of my pets are very calm and my dog loves other dogs!

“Jaylynne was fabulous! We needed someone to care for our two cats twice a day while we were away. Jaylynne was extremely professional and highly communicative. 10/10 recommend!”


About: I have hands on experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. In addition to my professional experience, I have a dog of my own, so I understand the daily commitment and care our furry companions need. I’ve worked with puppies learning basic commands, senior dogs needing a gentler pace, and dog-reactive pups who require patience and awareness on walks. I'm confident in my ability to provide safe, attentive, and loving care tailored to each dog’s individual needs. I’m available Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 8:30 AM to 1 PM. I also have open availability on weekends and can help whenever needed. Safety is always my top priority when walking dogs. I stay alert to my surroundings, avoid high traffic or overstimulating areas when needed, and always use secure, well fitted harnesses or leashes. I’m experienced with handling dogs that are reactive or easily distracted and know how to redirect their attention calmly and effectively. I also keep a close eye on weather conditions and each dog's energy level to ensure every walk is safe, comfortable, and enjoyable.

“Taryn is extremely responsible and a cat lover. This was one second time using her and I don’t think I’d trust anyone else! Came home to happy kitties after being on vacation.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats since i was an early teen. I’ve trained and kept them healthy and happy. Currently i have two cats and a husky that are very well behaved, non-reactive and happy. I’m a recent uni graduate who loves animals. I love taking care of them and staying active. I’m very easygoing and kind. I put a lot of effort into everything i do. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for dogs to walk around while inside. The house is very pet safe, no choking hazards around. I also live in a safe neighborhood that is perfect for walks, with a couple of parks around for dogs to get their sniffing and running done.

About: Experienced, patient, and reliable. I specialize in puppy training, senior pet care, and providing loving, attentive companionship tailored to each pet’s unique needs daily, consistently. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I prioritize regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, ensuring pets feel safe, loved, and happy. I provide safe, engaging dog walks and check-ins with playtime, fresh water, feeding if needed, and affection, ensuring pets feel comfortable, exercised, and cared for.

“Samantha is so kind and extremely reliable! Brodie had so much fun on his walks and she was so sweet to even leave him a goody bag. Will definitely use Samantha’s services again!”


“Sophie was an exceptional caretaker for our cats while we were away. Her detailed notes and pictures, which she sent during her visits, gave us peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip. She arrived on time, and our cats were delighted with her. We would definitely contact her for our next trip and highly recommend her services to anyone.”



“Our dogs and cats loved Ravit! It made our trip so much nicer to know that they were getting great care. Ravit even figured out how to get our incredibly picky dog to eat!”

About: I am a devoted dog owner with a three-year-old pup whom I walk regularly and adore deeply. Having always had a dog in my life, I am eager to expand that joy by welcoming even more canine companions into my home. I have previous experience dog-sitting for friends, which I thoroughly enjoyed. My home is perfectly set up for dogs, featuring a spacious, fenced-in yard, plenty of toys, and a constant supply of treats. I believe in creating a warm, welcoming environment where dogs can feel completely at ease, so they are welcome on both the couch and bed. My goal is to ensure every dog feels as comfortable and loved in my home as I do. I work a fully remote job with flexible hours, allowing me to step away from my desk to take dogs on walks throughout the day. My standard work schedule is Monday through Friday, 7:00 am to 4:00 pm, and I often have the freedom to leave the house when necessary. Additionally, my boyfriend, who shares our home, works night shifts, ensuring that our dog gets another walk and extra attention during the late hours. This arrangement provides continuous care and activity for our pets, making our household an ideal, dog-friendly environment. My priority is to ensure that every dog in my care feels safe, loved, and comfortable, whether they're being watched, walked, or staying overnight. Our home is equipped with air conditioning to keep them cool on hot days, and we have plenty of cozy dog beds, tasty treats, and fun toys to make their time here enjoyable and stress-free.

About: I’ve taken care of and walked dogs ever since I was in middle school! More importantly, I’ve had an unconditional love for all animals for as long as I can remember. I have a family dog that I regularly take care of, as well as my own reptiles that have specific care requirements to help them thrive. I will make your pet feel cared for and loved. I am currently working part-time, so with some coordinating I will have plenty of extra time to take care of your fur baby. So excited to meet them! Trust in your sitter is incredibly important. I have a lot of respect for peoples’ space and privacy. I will be very wary and cater to your specific needs because I understand how vulnerable it can be to let people into your home to care for your beloved pet.

“Sara is amazing!! She is so loving and kind with my newly adopted tripod dog, and she has so much experience with both typical and disabled animals. She provided photos of the visit and gave me plenty of updates all throughout the drop in. I am so glad my little guy got some love from her while I was away. I will book her again and trust her with my home and my precious pup! Thank you Sara!!”
