About: I have over 15 years of experience taking care of our furry little friends ranging from fresh out the womb puppies to senior dogs needing insulin shots. I’ve done it all and I’ve seen it all. However, I go at the pace of your requests. Putting you and your best friend first. my weekly schedule consists of work Monday and Tuesday from 8-1 PM. The other days I’m very flexible. Please note if you book with me on Mon/Tues I am only available outside of 8-1 PM for drop off requests. I abide by all the rules given by the client pertaining to their home. I am respectful, clean, and organized. I take great pride in my services and will make sure I meet the client and the pup’s needs! There are no dogs in my home. I live in a two floor townhome with one other person.

“I recently booked sitting services for my dog to Naoko, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience! From the moment we arrived, I was impressed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. Naoko is incredibly kind and attentive with my dog, and it was clear that he felt at ease and genuinely enjoyed his time with her and her family. I felt completely reassured knowing he was in such a nurturing environment. I’m really grateful for the care she provided and will absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future. If you're looking for a loving pet sitter, I highly recommend Naoko!”
10. Rocco C.
“Rocco is a very smart and responsible person. He has had dogs in his life since he was born. He has always treated them calmly, gently and warmly. He seems to understand animals and finds joy when he’s around any dog or cat. He went through training at the Humane Society to be an animal volunteer when he was 14. He did that purely on his own to gain experience and to learn how he could help others. He truly loves animals and loves taking care of them. I would trust him to take good care of my dogs anytime.”
