“My girls loved their stay with D'Artagnan. Our American bully gets super anxious and new environments and he and his girlfriend were perfect at helping her feel calm and relaxed. Nike was also a great playmate for both of them! We will definitely book with them again!”

About: Hi! I’m Luciana 🐾 I’ve volunteered with Heartland Animal Shelter for 2+ years and have experience fostering kittens, adult cats, hospice cats, and working with dogs of different sizes and personalities. As a pet parent to my cat Milo, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone patient, loving, and attentive. I provide: ✅ frequent photo updates ✅ playtime and enrichment ✅ medication experience ✅ calm care for shy or anxious pets ✅ reliable routines and potty breaks I work mostly from home, so your pet will receive lots of supervision and attention. I know every pet is different, and I always take time to understand their personality, routines, and comfort needs so they feel safe while you’re away ❤️ Not ready to book? Check us out on Sniffspot! Use code ROVER-LUCIANAG45482 on sniffspot for $5 off your first visit at our spot! I work mostly from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I do occasionally leave for short errands, workouts, or appointments (typically 1–3 hours), but I prioritize maintaining your pet’s routine and comfort. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, routines, and boundaries so they feel secure and cared for. I have experience with cats of all ages, including kittens, seniors, hospice kitties, and cats needing medication. For dogs, I’ve worked with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments through Heartland Animal Shelter. I have a fenced yard for pets that enjoy brief supervised outdoor time (always safely monitored). Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I adapt to what makes them happiest.

“My pooch came back happy and healthy! Thao was very accommodating when added two days onto my trip last minute, and even supplemented with her own food with no problem!! She also sent me pictures of him which helped ease any worries I may have had leaving him with someone for the first time. She was very easy to communicate with while I was out of town and answered any texts quickly and clearly. 5 stars from me and Max!”

“Conor and his family watched our 2 little dogs for a weekend and we’ve never been more comfortable with a place we’ve had watch them! Conor was an excellent communicator, frequently updating us with pictures and updates of our little guys just to let us know that all was well. Our little dogs were really comfortable there all weekend, and we will absolutely have Conor and his family at the top of our list for boarding next time we need help. It was a great experience sending our dogs to stay with someone so kind and trustworthy. We will be using them again soon. Highly recommend!”

“We had a great experience with Meghan! Freddy was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention while we were away.

“Undra took such wonderful care of our babygirl Mala during our 4½-day trip (Wednesday through Sunday afternoon). From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease. She kept us updated every single day with adorable pictures and videos, which really meant a lot while we were away. It was clear Mala was happy, comfortable, and being treated like part of the family. One of the sweetest touches was hearing how Undra’s 2-year-old daughter bonded with Mala — playing with her and even reading to her. Absolutely adorable and so heartwarming to see. You can tell Undra genuinely cares, and that kind of attention and love is hard to find. We’re truly grateful for the care she provided. We will definitely be using Undra’s services again for our future mini getaways.”

About: What sets us apart is that your dog becomes part of our family, not just a guest in our home. We are a loving family of five with children ages 11, 9, and 4, and we intentionally care for only one dog at a time. This allows us to give your dog undivided attention, maintain a calm environment, and reduce any risk associated with multiple pets. Between my flexible work-from-home schedule and my wife’s nursing schedule, your dog is rarely alone. We have experience caring for dogs of different ages and temperaments and are comfortable maintaining routines, administering basic care, and giving extra patience to senior dogs. Our children are gentle, supervised, and accustomed to interacting respectfully with dogs. Our large three-level home with hardwood and tile floors, along with a grassy front and backyard, provides plenty of space for comfort and play. We prioritize daily walks, structured playtime, and plenty of affection to ensure your dog feels safe, engaged, and loved. While we don’t currently own a pet, we regularly care for friends’ dogs and bring that same level of attentiveness and responsibility to every dog we watch.

“Ewa was simply wonderful. We had to deal with a cancelled flight home but she kept our dog comfortable and safe until we were able to get hm. Thank you Ewa!”

“Amanda was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my 3 yo Catahoula! She took such great care of her for the entire week and was incredibly kind and attentive. Amanda sent daily updates, which really put my mind at ease and let me see how happy my dog was. Her beagles were so sweet and playful, and my dog loved having friends to run around with in the yard. It was clear that Amanda truly cares about the dogs she watches and goes the extra mile to make sure they feel comfortable and happy. I’m so grateful for the care she gave my pup and would absolutely book with her again!”

Tracy G.

“Outstanding!! we love that we got multiple pictures and videos every single day. They took care of our pup like she was one of their own. Their dog has a great temperament and I’m sure our dog will miss playtime and naps with him! I will absolutely book again!”
