“Beth was so kind and so reasonably priced for my sweet boy's boarding. I've had him in day care with a big name facility, but he seemed so much calmer and more relaxed when I picked him up from Beth's. So grateful that she puts the work in for all the sweet pups and looking forward to boarding my dog with her again!”


“Linda took such good care of our adult dog & puppy. They came with alot of gear & instructions,she dove right and they settled down quickly. Linda kept us informed with text & pictures. She followed their schedule & took many walks. We greatly appreciate all the love & care she gave our girls. Greatly recommend Linda. Will use her again & again, if she'll have us.”


“Saya and David were great! Saya sent us pictures and videos and it looked like our Tanooki was having a fun staycation while we were overseas. It was our first time leaving Tanooki for such a long time but we had nothing to worry about, thanks to Saya and David. We will definitely look you up when we need to go away again. Thank you so much!!!”


“Dana was the best sitter we could ask for! She was super communicative and shared lots of photos. Our dog clearly had a fantastic time and we will absolutely bring him back for our next vacation!”


“Alexandria took excellent care of our miniature schnauzer while we were traveling for a week. She was very accommodating of our schedule and great with communication! Thanks, Alexandria!!”


“When I first met Laura, I was impressed by how she handled my fearful and sometimes reactive dog. Her calm and confident demeanor and her caring attitude quickly won over Calvin. Within minutes of meeting Laura and her dog, Wally, Calvin was literally eating out of her hands. Laura not only gave me peace of mind during my vacation by sending me photos of Calvin and keeping me updated, but she also made Calvin feel safe and part of her family. I will definitely use Laura's services again!”


About: I have taken care of pets most of my life. I’ve mostly handled cats and dogs, but I also have experience with bearded dragons 😊 I really do love all animals! I work M-F as a nurse but I’m usually done by 3:00 in the afternoon. I’ve found I really need something to do in my free time and I couldn’t think of anything better than taking care of some pets! As a nurse, safety is very important to me. I would use my days off to dedicate all my time to your pet, their happiness, and safety 😊

“Eleanor took amazing care of our dog! She was very responsive, sent updates, and treated him as if he was her own dog. She has a big yard for your dog to run around! We will definitely be using her for future dog sitting needs!”


“Samantha was great with my Finley. She sent pictures throughout the day and took her on a walk. Finley was her normal happy self when I picked her up and I can tell she enjoyed her time at Samanthas.”


“Jenning was great through this whole process. This was my first time using rover and leaving Nipsey with anybody. She was very helpful and knowledgable prior to booking and during his stay. She kept me updated with both pictures and videos and was easy to communicate with. She also gave me a list of things to pack prior to arriving and gave me a few pointers and suggestions for new things to order. Highly recommend Jenning to anyone looking to book, she cared Nipsey like her own.”


“Our pup was able to play outside, inside, and with other doggie friends. Thank you Vivian for keeping Velma a careful watch over all the dogs while they had all the fun. Great communication and sure sent pictures, videos, and updated each day. We've used Vivian twice and will continue again in future.”


“Amy and Cathy are great pet sitters! My mini dachshund, Mickey, stayed with Amy and Cathy for 3 weeks while we were away for a vacation and home renovation. Mickey was very happy there. Amy and Cathy have a very nice home and yard for him, plus he has fun with their dog, Shana! Highly recommend the team and would definitely use them again!”


About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for pets of all kinds—from tiny bottle-fed kittens to big senior dogs. I’m gentle, observant, and understand each animal’s personality. I’ve helped with giving medications, leash training, and even calming anxious rescues. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or quiet companionship, I tailor my care to what each pet needs most. Your pet’s happiness and comfort are always my priority. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for your pets with attention and love. I’m available for boarding on weekends, and weekday visits after 5pm. I’ll make sure your pet gets the playtime, cuddles, and care they deserve! I have a pet-friendly home with an open yard and two sweet, curious cats. While my yard isn’t fenced, I’m attentive and always ensure outdoor time is safe and supervised. I’m experienced with both cats and dogs, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy.

“Cindi is great! She is so attentive to all of the dogs that she cares for. I was a little uneasy when I dropped Harper off to be boarded, but within minutes of leaving she sent me photos and updates of her playing with the other pups! She keeps the dogs active and ensures that they feel comfortable and safe when away from home.”


“Elizabeth is amazing! She's extremely flexible, gives you updates on your beloved pet, and cares for them as her own. I was so nervous to leave my baby for the first time but i couldn't have left him in better hands! If you need to leave your fur baby for any reason, Elizabeth and her family is the go to 😊”


“Nicolette was an excellent dog sitter! She was incredibly caring and attentive, always quick to respond to any questions or requests. She adapted to our dog's needs with ease, ensuring Bella was well-cared for and happy. Nicolette took Bella on plenty of walks, and her spacious backyard provided the perfect setting for playtime. With an abundance of toys and treats, Bella was thoroughly entertained. We also appreciated the regular updates and pictures Nicolette sent, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend Nicolette for anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”


About: Hi! My name is Jess and I have loved taking care of dogs for a long time. I have 2 dogs (a puppy St. Bernard & middle aged Chihuahua mix) who are very easy going and low maintenance and get along with other dogs very well. I have experience with dogs of all sizes! My mother in law has 2 Belgian Malinois’ and I have dogsat them numerous times. I have a nice sized backyard and a lovely neighborhood setup to walk. I know how special dogs are, and would love to get the chance to spend time with your fur babies! I work full-time (WFH 2 days a week typically Mondays & Fridays). My dogs get fed about once a day and water as much as they need with some treats thrown in after bathroom breaks. During the day they typically use the restroom a few times and then once right before bed. I walk walk our puppy about once a day to help get her energy out. Like I said, I have two dogs who love using my fenced in backyard for playtime. I also have crates if necessary! I provide food, water, walks, treats, playtime, and cuddle time (if the dogs want to cuddle).

Jessica Y.
“Jess came into me and my dog lives almost 4 years ago and has been nothing but a joy since. She never had a dog growing up, but she has taken to these dogs like her own and loves them with everything she has. My dog Boo-Boo for example, has a hard time adjusting to new people. But when he met her, he went right up to her and sat next to her with no problems. He loved her from the start. Jess loves these dogs like they are her children and will do anything for then/to protect them. They love her so much.”
