“Maurice and Penny took great care of Peanut! I got lots of photos, and Peanut got lots of snuggles, walks, and playtime with their other dogs. I got back a happy and tired puppy dog :D”



“Great dog sitters! Marine was constantly sending me pictures of my pup, and he had a great few days with them. They have a large property and understand dogs very well. I will definitely be leaving my dog with them in the future!”


“I cannot imagine a better place for a dog to stay! Donald and his “doggy camp” are a home away from home as well as a fun romp in nature. Our dog had the best of both worlds, a comfortable home experience with Donald in his lovely cabin AND the outdoor fun and companionship of his other 4 legged guests on hikes and playing. Can’t recommend him high enough. Your dog will thank you! -Stephanie”


“Thank you Barbara and Darryll for being such great companions for Nyima while we were gone. It was so helpful to know she was loved and taken care of - and that she got to play outside with you every day!”


About: I am an animal lover who grew up taking care of many different kinds of animals and owning my own dog at a young age. I enjoy teaching and training our dog as well as playing with him. He's a happy, people-loving companion! I work from home and home school all 4 of my kids so taking care of pets fits into my schedule very well. Daily feeding and walking are scheduled. I happily include our pet in our home with some boundaries such as staying off of the furniture as well as not eating food off of the table.

“Kevin was great - excellent communication, and I felt my dog was in good hands. He stayed with Kevin for the two days we biked at KT. Kevin took him for hikes each day, which was greatly appreciated. He has a sweet greyhound that didn’t seem at all perturbed by our high energy springer! We go to KT at least once a year and hope to book him again!”



“Our dog, Baker, has stayed with Piper multiple times and always has the best time. Piper gives him so much outside time and is really in tune with Baker’s needs. I also love that Piper gives us lots of daily updates and photos. Piper is our most trusted dogsitter and I never hesitate to see if she’s available when we need to travel!”


“Sarah was absolutely the best dog sitter! She watched my pup for the holiday weekend while I was traveling, and I enjoyed my vacation knowing my pup was in good hands having his own doggy-vacation with Sarah and her dog Simba. Simba is her adorable friendly pup who is very good with other dogs. Sarah took our pups on multiple hikes and adventures. She is an excellent communicator, professional, and caring, and made everything seamless for me. Thank you Sarah! Highly recommend her!”


“Faye and Guy are so wonderful! They took in Bruno like he was one of their own. Bruno had such a good time and I received updates every day! Luck to have someone nearby that is so reliable!”


“Julia was AMAZING. She was the first person we’ve ever left our little fur baby with besides family, and after her... I don’t know how we’ll leave her with anyone else! She sent us incredible and gorgeous photos, took her on a hike and probably 6 walks within 24 hours, and took amazing care of Ina. I would recommend julia to anyone looking to board their dog in the Bay Area—she even met us 30 minutes from our house since the hour drive was a bit far for us, free of charge. Julia is an incredible dog sitter and such a clear dog lover. Highly recommended any day x x x x x x x x x x”



“Kelly is tremendous. We are so thankful. This was our first time leaving Teddy with someone AND he has some special needs, and Kelly took care of everything. We felt so safe and secure. Thank you! Can’t wait to bring him back.”


“Kim was awesome! I was visiting Stowe with my family and felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She did a great job at keeping me updated and sending lots of pictures. My dog got lots of exercise and play time outdoors and looked like he had a blast! I would definitely use Kim again if I’m in the area!”


“Julia was an excellent match for our two dogs for overnights. Large running and playing area and she took them for lots of walks. They obviously felt comfortable with her right away. Julia is an experienced dog professional and exudes the confidence and technique theater goes along with that. We will definitely call upon her again for dog care.”


“Maria provided exceptional care for our two large dogs. Prior to her and her dog, Lalo, 10 day stay at our house, Maria was gracious to meet us to introduce our dogs to Lalo. Cooper has IBD and severe allergies. Sometimes this makes him more irritable and reactive to other dogs. Generally, the concern is more with large dogs but Lily and Cooper have not been walked or had other dogs in their home in a few years. Maria has a very calm demeanor and is well versed in dog language. All introductions went well and her dog Lalo is well socialized and trained. We consider Lily and Cooper more 'needy' due to health issues. Maria was great at maintaining their routine with multiple feedings per day and a daily walk outing. The walk outings were 'above and beyond' as Lily and Cooper need to be leash walked. Maria provided daily photos and updates and is a really positive person. These updates made our vacation relaxed and worry free. In the past our dogs have exhibited some separation anxiety. When we returned home, they were happy and obviously had been groomed. If needed, we would enthusiastically book Maria again to care for Lily and Cooper.”

About: I've always been around animals growing up. I've cared for all different kinds of livestock, cats, dogs, and small animals like bunnies and reptiles (no snakes or spiders though yet). And I love every minute of it. I have over 10 years of professional pet caring experience. I've house/pet sat for family members before. And local people in my town. I've also worked and still work in horse boarding barns, small family owned barns, and a local large animal sanctuary. I've even volunteered at my local animal hospital multiple times. I'm always willing to bend to the clients personal request when it comes to caring for their fur babies and homes. Right now I'm still in school until June 8th 2025. I have 3 jobs. One is seasonal and 2 are year around. So my schedule has a lot going on. Luckily my jobs are pretty flexible making things like house/pet sitting doable. I'm a very patient person. So when it comes to dealing with pets and tasks I take things one step at a time. My pets are well loved and know it. I have never gotten a complaint from any past or present client. I am more then willing to communicate different needs and come up with a plan to make your pets and you getting to know me a good and relieving experience. I'm also more then happy to give regular updates and send lots of pictures.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 15 years now. Briefly owning my own pet sitting and dog walking company many years ago before having children. My family and I have been fostering dogs for just over a year now and have had the joy of finding 6 dogs their forever homes. Now being a stay at home mom with some spare time on my hands, I’m looking to get into pet sitting and dog walking again to share the love of animals with my kiddos! Flexible availability as I am home most days all day. Mid mornings and early afternoons are best for walks. Overnight care in our home is available any day and night! We have 10 acres off a private road with ample space to run and enjoy walks. We also have an entirely fenced in yard for the dogs to romp as they please!
