2. Alena & Matt N.
“Alena has taken amazing care of my cocker spaniel, Jake, for both overnight visits and more brief check-ins. My cocker is very nervous around new faces but Alena helped him quickly feel at ease- you can tell she has been around dogs her whole life. She is extremely detail-oriented, timely, and responsible- I would not hesitate to wholeheartedly recommend Alena for any pet care needs.”
3. Michael H.

7. Carla R.
About: I became a dog owner in 2010 and really fell in love with dogs and what they offer their human companions. I have over the years taken care of friends dogs when they need it. My first dog sitting job was for a teacher in Junior High whose dog had diabetes and I gave her daily shots. I will treat your dog as I do my own. Love and cuddles are included. I only plan on caring for one at a time plus my own. I work out of my home. I prefer meet and greets beforehand so I know our dogs are compatible. I look forward to meeting you and your dog. I work from my home so will be present with your dog unless I need to run an errand. My dog gets walks and time in the backyard whenever he wants. I have a fenced yard and a small dog of my own to keep your pet company. I’m sure our dogs will enjoy playing together.
8. Demetra P.
“Thank you Demi! We had a last minute need for a sitter and Demi saved the day. She even fit in a meet and greet so we could make sure it was a good fit. This helped us feel so much more at ease. We got daily updates and photos and were so grateful to see Khrush was made to feel right at home. We will definitely book with Demi again! Also, our pup came home very tired… which any Aussie parent can appreciate. Ha!”
9. Persia N.
“Persia was very flexible and kept in contact with me every day to let me know how Lancelot was doing. I’m a nurse who does overnight 12 hour shifts, and just recently got a dog with separation anxiety. Persia had me come over to make sure I was comfortable with her place prior to him spending the night, and she was very flexible when I asked to possibly pick Lancelot up early when I thought I was cancelled for the night. I will definitely be using Persia again. Thanks for taking good care of my sweet boy!”

15. Stephen H.

19. Sara S.
“Sara is communicative, friendly, and I can tell my dog had a great time in her care. I got lots of pictures and updates, and Cheeseburger is exhausted from all the fun he had on his vacation at her house”
20. Nelly M.
“Nelly and her family are absolutely amazing. We had last minute plans for the weekend and she was able to sit for us. I have 2 anxious huskies that need calming medication and she knew what to do. She constantly sent updates with so many photos which eased my own anxiety about leaving my girls for the weekend. We don't take trips often without our dogs since they have horrible anxiety, but I'm glad to have found Nelly and we plan to use her again in the future if we can't take our dogs with us.”
