About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds after I graduated from college and finally have my own place and free time. Been a professional dog sitter for 8 years. Their needs is always my priority. When I dog sitting, I don’t normally go in and out, I always make sure I stay with them because they feel lonely and nervous about their owner is not around. I walk them every hour, take them to park and dog park. I am now between jobs and taking care of my dog whole day at home. He is a super friendly 11 month old Aussie. Fixed male, he loves all dogs and get along with everyone I have been sitting before. He loves when there’s other dogs around. He has no problem with sharing treats and mom’s attention. We have a 1.5 acre big backyard to let them do business, running and play fetch and I always make sure I am at the yard with them. Our neighborshood is away from traffic, quiet and safe for walking dogs. I take dogs to dog park everyday around 5:00 pm for 1-2 hours to burn the extra energy and boost appetite for dinner. I love just looking at them for hours, pay close attention to dogs. How many time they scratch the ears and how many times they pee and poop. I am also good at cooking fresh nutritious dog meal. My dog loves chicken breast, chicken liver/beef liver, carrots, pumpkin and sweet potato meal. I hope my dog Keanu and I can make the stay feels like a vacation and fun for your dog. I have a 3 floor house with big yard, 2 people 1 dog live in the house. The whole first floor is for dogs, with big living room, couch, beds and a crate. Many windows allow them to look front yard and back yard. They can wander around to any floor and room they like, so even if they want some alone time, there are plenty of space for them. I can’t host cats due to my husband allergies, but I always love to go to your place to clean and feed the cats. I am between jobs so I am home 24/7. I go to the yard with dogs every hour to do business or play. Their schedule is always my priority. I have fenced yard and I always go to the yard with the dogs. I also have a super friendly 11 month old dog to keep them company
“Chris was great. He helped us out with a last minute doggie daycare request. We appreciated that he was careful to have a chat with us beforehand to ensure our senior dog would be an ok fit with his other doggie client. He sent us some reassuring photos and note letting us know our dog was doing ok. We would definitely bring our dog back to Chris again.”

“Jenny was a superb sitter! My dog clearly had a great time with her. She kept me updated throughout the entire duration of his stay with pictures and videos. I would definitely refer my friends that are pet owners that are seeking a great sitter. She was very patient with my crazy work schedule and very flexible with her availability. Going forward i will be using Jenny as his primary sitter.”

“Clare was a better dog sitter than I could have imagined and went above and beyond. I was so nervous at the start of the day, but Clare had clearly read Topies bio and her enthusiasm soothed all my nerves. The end of day report with the walks and pictures was so great because I could tell my pup had the best day. I will absolutely be booking with Clare anytime I need another dog sitter.”
