7. Donna S.
“Donna rescued her bassett hound Lucy eight years ago. She and Lucy shared the best life - long walks with lots of sniffs, loving belly rubs and naps on the couch. Donna gave Lucy the best care, from a young pup to a senior dog. Donna is a true dog lover, and now that Lucy lives on in her heart, you can be sure your dog will be in patient, kind and good hands during their stay.”


8. Irene & James I.

“This last week Irene and James have been a lifesaver! I now need to have my dog in daycare full time which she is not used to and usually very nervous. I’ve had my dog stay with Irene and James for dog sitting and could not be happier. My dog has thrived staying with them. She is comfortable, eats, drinks water, and interacts with them instead of shutting down. I have been so amazed by their care of my dog and the consistent text and photos updates throughout the day. So thankful to have found Irene and James to care for my dog and fully recommend them for any dog care services!”


9. Paige P.

“Paige was wonderful with my foster dog. Lizzie is a very nervous pup, and Paige made her feel 100% at home.”


10. Jade P.

“Zorrie had a splendid time at Jade's place. Plenty of playtime and couch naps and treats. Will definitely use this service again.”


11. Bridget E.


“This is our first time doing daycare with a dog sitter and our dogs had a great time! Bridget is very experienced and handled our dogs well (one has exercise restrictions and the other is anxious) and left us with peace of mind. We’re super excited to have such a reliable dog sitter close in the area that we can use in the future!”


12. Emma G.
About: I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs for my whole life. I’ve raised puppies and helped my own senior dog manage diabetes. I know how to recognize discomfort and anxiety and more importantly I know how to find a solution to make pets feel more comfortable. Right now I work from home with a very flexible work/life balance and schedule. For me, taking care of pets is a way of making sure I get out of the house and connect with my neighbors, so I’m happy to do it whenever I can! I have worked with many dogs with different needs, from separation anxiety to illness to acute diseases like an ear infection. I pride myself on my ability to notice the needs of pets and work to make them comfortable and happy. I’ll work with you to make sure I know where everything your pet needs is- including treats, medicine, emergency contacts, their favorite toy, and something that smells like you that can comfort them if they’re missing you extra. And if all else fails, I’ll communicate with you to find a solution to make sure your pet is happy.


13. Rebecca H.

“My Boston Terrier puppy Zeki had a wonderful time with Rebecca and her sweet dog Luna! Zeki has some puppy energy and she (and Luna!) took care of him very well- this is definitely a dog-knowledgeable and friendly household. I would definitely contact her again if we need to arrange for care for Zeki.”


14. Walker & Brennan B.

“I was in a bind looking for daycare for my girl, Maisy, and Walker and Brennan agreed to watch her fairly last minute. They took great care of her and kept me updated throughout the day with pictures of her having a blast running around in the backyard and hanging out with their dog, Dolly. Maisy very clearly had such a fun day and appeared to be comfortable in their home with a huge smile on her face when I came to pick her up. She has been fast asleep ever since we got home! Their dog, Dolly, is also an absolute sweetheart and greeted Maisy as if they were already friends, despite them never having met before. I would definitely recommend Walker and Brennan to others :)”


15. Mel O.

“Mel was fantastic with our shy puppy! Her facilities were well organized with care and cleanly. She was extremely kind and a true dog lover! Our pup came home very happy. There's an outdoor area for the pups to play, indoor area, crates as needed. We will be returning again!”


16. Elena L.

“Elena was a fantastic sitter! She sent updates and pictures throughout the day and it really seemed like our pup enjoyed her time there! I’d 100% book again!”


17. Grace & Cody A.

“Grace and Cody are caring and thoughtful sitters! My sweet Oliver is a needy boy and they have worked well with us to help Oliver be comfortable in their home. And toast is adorable! :)”


18. Yujia Q.

“Yujia is amazing! She was very communicative, super kind, and sent the best pictures of Billi each day! Billi was so comfortable and happy :)”


19. Scarlett H.
“Scarlett took care of my Roxie and Loki over the summer, taking them on out on walks and making sure they were fed. Scarlett has a love for all living things, especially dogs, and I am sure she would be really happy to / is capable of taking care of your beloved animals too!”


20. Laura P.

“My dog Brittany was a little hesitant for me to leave, but Laura made her so comfortable and sent me pictures of her during play time, napping, and overall making herself at home! We will definitely be back.”
