“Huron and Elise were absolutely amazing in every way for our sweet pup. Not only did they take our request extremely last minute but they took amazing care of our sweet girl! We really appreciated their effort of ensuring plenty of time outside and returned our sweet girl all worn out from her fun. They were truly the best and we cannot thank them enough!”

“Chash took wonderful care of Tori! She was so communicative, sent great updates, and was incredibly patient and understanding even when Tori had an accident. Tori especially adored her daughter and became her little shadow the entire time. Tori had the best time—when I went to pick her up, she didn't even want to leave to go home! I had complete peace of mind while away. We will definitely rebook in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Memphoo was taken very well at Austin’s. Austin always kept us posted with texts, photos and videos everyday. He always gladly did everything that is good for my fur baby. I felt good to leave my dog to him, Will definitely hire him again.”
“Travis was great with our beagle! Atlas definitely came home spoiled! Travis sent pics and videos to show us how things were going. He was very responsive and the whole process was incredibly easy!”


“Caden did an amazing job taking care of Pickles. Pickles was so excited when he arrived knew exactly where he was and couldn’t wait to go inside. When pickles wouldn’t eat the first day Caden hand fed Pickles. So thank you for going above and beyond!”

“Exceeded my expectations as a dog sitter! They were professional, caring, and communicated with me regularly while I was away. They sent updates and pictures, which really put my mind at ease. My dog bonded with them quickly, and it was clear they were in good hands. I came back to a happy and relaxed pup, which speaks volumes about the quality of care provided. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Nalleli and her family took wonderful care of our 15 yr old dog, Kiki. She was loved, had lots of cuddles and snacks and was very happy at Nalleli. I appreciate the care that Nalleli provided and look forward to booking her again to look after our pup when we’re away.”

“Fen received the best care while staying with Jennifer, her family, and their pupper Henry. Jennifer provided photos and updates throughout the weekend and always responded within minutes to my messages. Would love to have her care for our Fen again anytime!”

“Parker really enjoyed her stay with Andrew and his family! She came home very happy and relaxed. Andrew was a great communicator, sharing lots of updates and cute pictures. He made sure she was comfortable at all times and ensured she was okay sleeping on the first level when she showed apprehension at the stairs. As an experienced dog-owner, Andrew was confident regarding Parker's specific care instructions and ensured she had all her meds and food. I am looking forward to booking Andrew again, I know Parker will be excited to spend more time there!”

“Carl is a kind, thoughtful person who clearly loves dogs. I felt at ease within moments of meeting him and felt assured that Duncan would be well taken care of. Carl is very responsive and sent us lots of pictures during Duncan’s stay. Duncan seemed to have a great time with Carl, Oliver, and family, so will definitely be requesting his help again.”

“Our dog was well taken care of, and we got pictures during the stay. Only problem was during pickup, Cindi was not home even though we confirmed the time earlier that same day. Her phone had died so we were unable to reach her. We waited an hour but ultimately went home. We were able to pick up our dog later.”

“Anne and family were great with our dog. She was very easy to communicate with, has a great house with a fenced in backyard, nice neighborhood, and parks nearby, etc. Her own dog was adorable and got along well with our high-energy 2-year old dog. We never know about how our dog will get along since, although he is quite friendly, he does have a lot of energy and loves a lot of running, chasing, etc. We had various special instructions for feeding, walking, playing, and the like, and Anne was great in taking care of those requests. We appreciated getting pictures and updates and we highly recommend.”


“This is our second time boarding with Alejandra, and she is wonderful. She is very accommodating, friendly, and caring. She took great care of our French bulldog. While we were away, I could trust that my dog was safe, happy, and looked after. I appreciated the photos that Alejandra sent, and my 2 year old was excited to see what our dog was up to on her "puppy vacation". I am so happy I found Alejandra so that we can have peace of mind while we are away. Will definitely be back again next time we need boarding!”
About: I have over 7 years of experience as an animal caretaker and am currently a foster parent with MCASAC. I work with a a variety of dogs from all walks of life, but typically focus on tending to large and senior dogs that require special medical needs, behavioral training, and/or socialization in a stress-free home environment. As a remote worker, I have the flexibility to tailor my schedule to your pet's routine and unique needs, ensuring personalized care and attention throughout their stay. I strive to create a comfortable and safe environment for pets under my care, whether I'm caring for them in my own home or providing a drop-in visit at your home. For services whereby your pet is staying with me, I offer in-home doggy daycare for up to 8-hour stays and boarding services for extended to overnight care. All pups will have freedom to run around the house with plenty of exericse and playtime breaks throughout the day. To create a peaceful and stress-free mealtime for all pups, I feed them separately or in a designated space. In terms of supervision, there is always someone home as I live with four other family members who work remotely as well and are comfortable with providing supplemental care and attention as needed. Throughout the day, I like to share regular updates and photos to the owners, so they can see how their pets are doing while they're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I'll work with you to confirm care instructions, your pet's routine and any additional needs your pet requires during my visit.

“Dianne was amazing! Kaia felt right at home at her place and seems to have gotten along really well with Kona. Dianne was very thoughtful about acclimating Kaia to her home and then creating a safe way to introduce Kaia and Kona. She took great care of Kaia while I was gone, proactively sent updates and photos. I wouldn't hesitate to re-book.”


“Muffin had a great time with Swati. Swati did an awesome job updating us with pictures of Muffin during her stay. You can tell she really loves dogs. She also was very understanding about a last minute change our plans. I highly recommend her.”

She was incredibly communicative throughout the whole trip, sending lots of photos and videos that really put my mind at ease.

I looked into quite a few sitters before choosing Todd because I really wanted to make sure my dog would be as comfortable as possible while I was away. Todd ended up being the perfect choice! He took great care of Koda, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. If you’re considering leaving your dog with Todd, I definitely recommend him!

Tracey and her family were really wonderful with our pug Lily. Tracey is very easygoing, and made us feel very comfortable that Lily was well looked after and given lots of love and attention. This is the first time we have put Lily in a house with children and it was a great decision. Lily loves children and the girls had fun playing with her and cuddling up, which is Lily's favorite thing to do! We look forward to booking with Tracey again in the near future!

We left our 6 yr old golden doodle with Jayendri for 4 days. She managed him very well specially his food as he is a picky eater. The best part of leaving my pup with Jayendri was that I got transparent updates about food and walks and even if the walk schedules were modified. This is something I have not seen with other sitters. Gibbs came back happy and I would love to leave him back again when we go on holidays.

James, Nicolette, and their children took excellent care of our nine month old Portuguese Water Dog puppy. Lizzy was treated as part of their loving family and had plenty of exercise and attention. My wife and I received constant updates and photos. I highly recommend them and would use them again without hesitation in the future.

Andrii was really good with our cats and they looked incredibly peaceful in every picture he sent to us. He was also super responsive to any messages from us and even helped carry all of our cat gear in and out. We would definitely use Andrii again if he's available.

Sabina takes excellent care of our dog! She follows our instruction exactly and updates us daily with pictures. She also gives lots of attention and does lots of activities with Saska. He’s definitely very happy at her place! We would not hesitate to choose her again in the future!

Sure! Here’s a polished review you can use: --- We couldn’t be happier with Katrina as our dogsitter! She is incredibly communicative and keeps us updated every step of the way. It’s clear she has a lot of experience. Our dogs warmed up to her right away and are always relaxed and happy when we return. Being able to go on vacation with peace of mind, knowing our dogs are getting the absolute best care and attention, is priceless. Highly recommended!
