“Yaqi was absolutely amazing with my dog, Pocky! She kept me updated with messages and photos, was always responsive if I had any questions, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I highly recommend her and would happily book with her again!”

Katherine T.

“She is so kind and patient with our dog! We knew she was the right one as soon as I saw the house skies in the pictures as we have a Husky. We would highly recommend her!”

“Monica did a great job communicating and sending pictures. She took her on long walks and made sure she was all set up in her crate at night. Miley came home happy so we were happy!”

“First time experience with Michelle and a good one overall! Great communication and upfront about the experience. Appreciate Michelle’s willingness to give some extra support to our pup who took some warming up to boarding. Would definitely consider for future boarding.”

“We had another wonderful experience with Kelly. Charlie stayed with her and her pups for the weekend-and it just happened to be Charlies 3rd Birthday. She went above and beyond celebrating him with homemade dog-friendly cupcakes, which was so thoughtful and adorable. It gave us such peace of mind that he was not only looked after but truly cared for. Once again he came home happy, healthy and relaxed. We are very grateful for the extra effort Kelly put in to make his Birthday special!! Highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: Bella’s Journey Pet care was born from my 16 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog from puppyhood to her senior years. This lifelong journey taught me the joys and challenges of nurturing a pet through every stage of life—from playful puppy antics to managing the unique needs of an aging pet, including mobility support, medication, and gentle care. My deep understanding of pet behavior and health means I provide patient, compassionate, and personalized care for your beloved dog. I’m dedicated to treating your pets like family, supporting their happiness and well-being. Bella has crossed the rainbow bridge, but her Mom has plenty of love to share! We were also very blessed to own and care for three horses over a period of 15 years. Much larger scale than your beloved family remember. But an added layer of comfort knowing we are equipped for small and larger responsibilities! My background in holistic approaches to pet care will also offer you and your pet ease of mind. My schedule is flexible to match that or my clients needs. In your home. Or mine if I do not have an in home overnight on the schedule. Reliable, caring in-home pet sitter providing attentive, stress-free care, feeding, walks, medication, and companionship, ensuring your pets stay comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away.

“Jessica is fantastic! She took our pup to the park and on her errands which made him very happy. Very communicative too the entire time with photos and videos. And she takes excellent photos to boot!”

Anthony M.

“We had another fantastic experience with Marissa. This was her second time watching our 11 years old dachshund, and we couldn't be happier. Since he's a senior dog, it means the world to us knowing he's in such gentle, attentive, and caring hands. He was so happy, relaxed, and well-cared for the entire time. We will definitely be booking Marissa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.”

“Jonas had an excellent sleepover! Jillian was easy to reach and gave lots of info about Jonas's stay.”

Katie S.

“Greg & Sonia have watched my dog Shelby a number of times and for extended periods of time, they do an amazing job with her. I hardly worry about her when I’m gone because I know she is in great hands! They are the first and only sitters I reach out to!”

Tyler M.

“Alex Anne takes great care of our dog, Reggie! She sends photos/updates and we never get the feeling he is unhappy when he’s with her. Highly recommend!”

Torie & Alexander W.

“My dogs had an absolute blast during their stay. There is so much space for the dogs to explore, sniff, and burn off energy, which made a huge difference for them. I picked up two very happy, tired pups, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such a great environment. I will definitely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a safe, fun place to board their dogs.”

Tania S.

“I am so happy I chose Michael to care for my Aussie Layla. She is like my child and I was worried about leaving her but Michael immediately put my mind at ease. He was so warm and welcoming and Layla went right to him. It was apparent how much he loves dogs. His home and fenced yard provided a safe environment with plenty of room to roam. He took Layla on nice walks and stayed in touch with me through texts and pictures. I will definitely continue to use him for any future needs.”

Liz F.

“Eliza took such great care of our George! She sent updates and photos which we really appreciated! Thank you Eliza! George loved his stay with you and his new friend Lola :)”

“Eileen was a wonderful sitter. She took excellent care of our dog, was flexible with Flora's needs and updated us daily with pictures and commentary. Would definitely ask Eileen to watch Flora again!”

Megan B.

“Elisa is truly caring nature, and I felt totally at ease leaving my baby with her. She treats your dog like it’s part of her own family, and on top of that, her home is spotless! She also kept me posted with texts and photos though out each day. I will continue working with Elisa and happy I found her and Fiona (her dog). ✨✨✨”

Holly C.

“My dog, Lucky, had a great time. We were gone for 10 days and he was so happy. Communication and care were top notch. We will definitely book again the next time we are out of town.”

Sabrina B.

“We are very thankful for the excellent care we can count on with Wendy and Bill! It means so much to us to have a loving home that we can trust with our pup when we're out of town. We also really appreciate the prompt communication before, during, and after boarding. They're the best!”
