“My dog Reese is so happy to spend the day with Arden! By our second and third visits, Reese had learned what it means when I say “you’re going to see your friend Arden today,” and she happy whines in the car when we get close to her house! Very grateful to have her as a backup parent for when I need a break.”

“Sloane is the BEST!! Her updates are detailed with lots of photos, and as an anxious dog mom, I really appreciate that! Cooper has such a great time with her and always comes home tired from all the fun. 10/10, cannot recommend more!”

“Karissa and Robert took such great care of Sherman for his first week at day care. He enjoyed his time so much and they made his new environment so comforting and easy. Thank you both so much, can’t wait for Sherman to go back to have a great time again this week.”


“Archer had a fantastic day with Brittany! She kept me updated on how he was doing, took him to the dog park, sent pics, was very responsive. Would definitely use again.”

“Absolutely amazing caregivers!!! My little angel had a blast with Yamy and Alfonso. They are completely understanding and gentle to my little fur baby. 110% booking again!!”

“Julie was so sweet and caring to not only Lily but me as well. She’s really great with communication, sending multiple updates throughout the day and answering very quickly. I know Lily was well taken care of. Thank you Julie :)”

“Adrian was so great! I needed a last-minute sitter for a couple days and she was able to take care of my boy no problem. I got a lot of updates and pictures on what ghibli was up to, and he got tons of exercise and got along well with her dog. She even accommodated me when I was running a little behind and had to pick Ghibli up a little later than usual. Highly recommended !”

About: I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember. Whether they need a nice long walk, some time playing fetch, casual company, or some pets. I'm your guy. I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs who need special care or administering medication. I'm currently working from home so I am free for dog walks throughout the day and even boarding on weeknights or weekends. Feel free to book with me and even set up a recurring visit. I currently live in an apartment with my cat, Squeak. I work from home so I'm free to take your pet on walks throughout the day as they need and I'll treat them like one of my own. I can crate them as-needed or let them relax in my home if they're house trained.
“Still in recovery from an attack by a large dog, our little seven pound puppy Maui needed extra TLC. Martine and Ron were as loving and caring as we could ever had hoped for. I recommend them most highly and without reservation!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments for over 20 years. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their dogs consistently and responsibly. I’m calm, attentive, and safety-focused, and I aim to give each dog a steady, stress-free walk tailored to their needs. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I keep a flexible schedule to accommodate regular walks, check-ins, and last-minute requests when possible. I prioritize punctuality, clear communication, and consistency so pets get reliable care and owners know what to expect. I’m careful and attentive when caring for pets in clients’ homes and during walks. I follow all instructions closely, keep dogs secure on leash, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. My focus is always on safety, calm handling, and respecting each pet’s routine.
“Re’Anna was so kind and understanding. She was able to accept my last minute booking for doggy day care. Rambo had such a good time. Her kids were really good with him too! Definitely will be booking with her when I’m in the area again!!!”

“Daniela is awesome! Oakley loves her, and she takes great care of him. He’s super excited to get dropped off for the day. She sends updates throughout the day and I would highly recommend her!!”

“She really took care of my baby like he was hers. I could tell he was comfortable and loved the whole time he was with her. I was nervous at first because that’s my heart, but the way she treated him and kept me updated gave me so much peace. You can tell she genuinely loves animals, and that’s all I could ever ask for. Thank you for taking such good care of him.”


About: Now booking for June and Beyond! Hi! I’m Garrett — I provide a safe, clean, and fun home for your dog while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I love staying active with walks and playtime, but I also make sure your dog feels comfortable and relaxed like they’re at home. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your dog is doing 😊 I can host multiple friendly dogs at a time, so your pup can enjoy some social time if they’re comfortable around others. I also offer baths before pickup if you’d like your dog going home clean! Feel free to reach out with any questions — I’d love to take care of your dog! I have a flexible schedule and can usually accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I always try to keep a consistent routine so your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable in their environment, and I will always keep you updated with messages and photos so you know your pet is happy and safe while you’re away.

About: Cat and Dog first aid certified and 25 years experience In pet-sitting, dog training and volunteering for various animal organizations allowing me to be very In tune with your pups and their needs. Your fur baby will have full-time one-on-one care and we provide a safe and fun place for your pups while you are at work or on vacation . I send photos and updates daily so you can know exactly how they are doing. ****Please note, I cannot accept super high energy or anxious dogs and like to keep a playful, but stress free environment for all the pups :) Dogs must be fully potty trained in other peoples homes and be dog friendly with other dogs. I take as many walks as the pups need and do not watch more than 2 dogs (That makes 3 with my girl) so your dog will always have personal care in a fun and stress-free environment! Feel free to contact me for a meet and greet! =) ********IMPORTANT NOTES!!*********** **Due to proximity of neighbors and that I have client calls, we cannot have dogs that continuously bark out of respect for my neighbors. I cannot accept super high energy or anxious dogs and like to keep a playful, but stress free environment for all the pups :) Dogs must be fully potty trained in other peoples homes and be dog friendly to other dogs. I work from home and your dog will have lots of full time care and cuddles. I do not take more than 2 dogs at once so your dog will have lots of personal attention. Drop off and pick up times are from 7:00 am - 9pm. We have a fenced in back yard and also live waking distance to a quiet greenway entrance for lots of sunny walks in nature for exercise if needed.
About: I grew up with labs and retrievers but now live alone with my 2 cats (who are pretty much used to dogs, but still wary of them). I watch peoples dogs and foster with Saving Grace when I can so have experience with a wide range of dogs. I am an engineer but am taking time off from that job. One favorite thing to do with a dog I watch is taking them to my building’s fenced in private dog walk and playing fetch! I have a large dog crate if that is better for sitting/boarding but only if that is part of their normal routine. Pets are allowed on the furniture (also if normal) and since I have pets already, I have extra water around the apartment. Since I’m used to hosting dogs, I’m good at “cat proofing” the apartment and my unit has a good layout to separate the cats and the visiting pet if needed. I choose how to take out any dog based on their personality: dog walk at my apartment building, walks, local dog park, hikes, etc. I also have plenty of dog toys.
About: What sets me apart? I treat every pet like they’re my own—spoiled, loved, and showered with attention! Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, or just a cozy nap buddy, I adjust to their unique personality and needs. I have experience with all kinds of pets—from energetic puppies who need structure and training to sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and gentle care. I’m also great with shy or anxious pets, helping them feel safe and comfortable in my care. You can count on me for dependable, tail-wagging service with lots of photo updates (because who doesn’t love surprise pics of their fur baby during the day?). Let’s make your time away stress-free—for both you and your pet! Caring for pets is truly the best part of my day! I build my schedule around the pets I’m looking after, making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or cozy evening snuggles, I’m flexible and fully present for every furry friend I care for. Spending time with animals doesn’t feel like a chore—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I plan my week to make sure I’m never rushed, so your pet gets all the love, care, and time they deserve! Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m coming to your home, they’ll be treated like family every step of the way! In My Home: I provide a safe, cozy, and pet-friendly space with plenty of snuggles, playtime, and attention. Pets are free to roam, lounge, or explore (with supervision, of course!). I follow their usual routines and keep their favorite toys, treats, and comforts close by to make them feel right at home. In Your Home: I make sure to respect your space while giving your pet the love and attention they’re used to. I stick closely to their feeding, walking, and play schedules to keep everything familiar and stress-free. Plus, I always keep things tidy and make sure your pet is relaxed and happy while you’re away. No matter the location, your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priority!
“We’re are so blessed to have found Jenn! She hung out with our special needs pup all day during our event and made sure he was safe as can be! Thanks again Jenn! Niko said he misses you already. 🤗”

About: I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting since I was 19. I absolutely love dogs, taking them on walks (or runs if needed!), and just giving them all my love. I’m working from home and have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to help out anywhere from once to probably three times a day if you want! I live in a two bedroom townhome with my 8 year old heeler. My dog is very sweet and likes to hang and walk with most dogs but can be shy when meeting a new friend. She is less excited about hyper furry friends but am happy to always do a meet and greet before booking.

My dog came home exhausted in the best way possible! Dee took such great care of my little goofball and kept me updated with pictures! I highly recommend Dee to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely compassionate toward animals. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!
Sloane is absolutely amazing! Finding someone you trust with your dogs can be tough, but she has completely restored my faith in pet sitters. Bear and Hamilton always come home happily exhausted and clearly well-loved. I feel so at ease leaving them in her hands. Absolutely recommend. Thank you Sloane

Ollie had a great time with Karissa and Robert (and family)! They kept him going and engaged with play as well as working on some training. They also communicated well and shared lots of pictures of their adventures. We will definitely be booking with them again!

We’re so grateful we found Isabel to care for our Luna! Our dog, who’s usually slow to warm up, felt right at home immediately. The updates and photos gave us so much peace of mind—it’s clear she truly loves and cares for every dog like her own. We’re looking forward to Luna’s first overnight stay and an already booked longer visit with Isabel. Highly recommend!

Your doggie will be in wonderful hands. It’s clear that Mara loves animals and it shows in how she’s taken care of our pup. Mara is communicative, punctual, thoughtful, and updates us with great photos/videos throughout the day. And for Winnie - she lives her best life with Mara! She always comes home tired after a big day of walks, play time, and parks. We are so lucky we found Mara.

Monika has a really chill vibe, making her an ideal pet sitting candidate for our somewhat anxious dog (and maybe somewhat more anxious dog parent!). Monika responded quickly to the booking request. Drop-off was convenient: Monika came to the parking lot to grab Scarlet and Scarlet's toys, etc. Scarlet was noticeably tired when she came home from staying with Monika. Appreciated the daycare report card. Recommend!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Julie! Hugo LOVES her, she takes great care of him, follows all instructions, and obviously really enjoys helping care for animals. I will continue using Julie's services anytime I need help with Hugo. Highly recommend!
