“Vigi and family were wonderful and my Harley was nothing but happy with them. I will be booking for any future boarding and daycare as long as they are available. Highly recommend them for your fur babies!”


“Katya took great care of my energetic golden retriever and sent photos and videos! Would definitely recommend her and will definitely be booking again.”


“As always 100% recomended! Brad took care of Kylie and Peggy without any issues for a full week and you can notice they loved being there! Thank you for your continuous availability and for taking care of our little ones!”


“Andrea took our dog in last minute & took great care of him, checking in with pictures & texts, despite being busy caring for multiple dogs. It was also a holiday weekend on top of it. Andrea is very accommodating & understanding, we will definitely use her services again!”


“Clarissa is amazing! Great communication and even sent pictures during our time away! My crazy pup came home exhausted! She even taught her how to sleep without being in a crate or in the bed with us and she is doing well not messing in the house when we are resting! I am so grateful! We booked again and will continue to book every trip we can with her and her amazing family!”


“It was my first time using this Rover app for my puppy and I have to say Blanca was amazing with my puppy Nori. Definitely will be calling her again . She was very loving towards her and my puppy seemed very happy.”


“We are so grateful to Anolan for taking such amazing care of our two dogs, Maisy and Hendrix, this past weekend while we made a last-minute trip to New Orleans for the birth of our niece. From the very beginning, Anolan was incredibly kind, patient, and responsive. She sent us updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our doggos were both happy and in good hands. Maisy and Hendrix absolutely loved her (and her sweet dog, Benji, who they got to go on walks and play with!), and they were clearly spoiled with love and treats. Anolan’s boyfriend was also great with them, and it was heartwarming to see how comfortable and relaxed our pups were in their care. We ended up being delayed in picking them up, and Anolan was nothing but understanding and gracious about it. We would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you again, Anolan—you’re the best!”


“Anna took great care of my dog while I was on vacation, she sent me updates, and my dog definitely came home happy. I can tell she had a good time and was well taken care of! This was my dogs second time staying with Anna. Thank you!”


“Yekatarina has been taking wonderful care of my mom's two cats. She sends beautiful photos and has been excellent at communicating and helping us with last minute bookings. Highly recommended!”


About: As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone who truly treats your pup like family. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and personalities and currently focus on pups 40 lbs and under to keep things calm and comfortable in my cozy home. My own dog is about 65 lbs, gentle, and great with dogs of all sizes! I only care for one family’s pets at a time so I can provide focused attention, a peaceful environment, and personalized care for your pup’s unique needs. I work from home full time, so your dog will have lots of companionship, attention, and supervised time throughout the day. While I don’t include walks by default, I’m happy to offer them if requested. I do require that all dogs are crate trained, just in case I need to run a quick errand—your pup’s comfort and safety always come first. Your dog will be cared for in a safe, calm, and loving home with a fully fenced yard for outdoor potty breaks and play. I only accept crate-trained dogs under 40 lbs and host just one family’s pets at a time. This helps ensure a low-stress, high-attention environment tailored to your dog’s comfort. My dog is friendly and well-socialized, and I always prioritize slow, respectful introductions. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax, knowing your pet is in great hands.

“Thank you Millie for taking such great care of Batman. I really appreciated the updates with photos. Seeing him happy and content putmy mind at ease while we were away.”


“The absolute best people to watch your pup! I was frequently updated with happy pics and vids of my precious girl during her stay with this lovely family! I can’t recommend them highly enough! A+ 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


“She asked all the right questions and updated me with my pups activities. My dogs became really good friends with two of her dogs. In short they didn't miss me and loved how she made them feel at home.”



“If I could give Sanja ten stars, I would! I’m a very helicopter puppy mom, and I got severe anxiety anytime I thought about leaving my new puppy in a place that would kennel him for hours at a time while we were out of town. Plus, he came from a hoarding situation and has some anxiety and other issues. I saw Sanja recommended by a mutual friend on someone’s FB post so we did a meet and greet, and I knew just from talking with her that she could not be a better dog sitter. I have loved getting text, photo and video updates. In fact, I think my puppy is happier at her house than ours because he gets daily play time, lol. She clearly has a loving heart and home for dogs and I am SO thankful for finding her! In fact, I may continue wit occasional daycare just so my pup can get play time at her house!”

“Rachel and her daughter are the best dog sitters. Great caregivers and flexible. Great communicators. We’re repeat customers and they’re definitely our go-to now so long as they’ll have us!”


“Onyx enjoyed staying with Steve and had lots of fun. He warmed up quickly to Steve which is unusual so it's a testament to Steve's natural abilities with cats. Steve provided regular updates and pictures to reassure me things were going well. I highly recommend Steve as your next pet sitter!”
