Tracy and Jessica were the best host for our dog, Stumpy! They made him and us feel comfortable during his stay. They took him for adventures during the weekend and sent us pictures and updates. We will definitely use them again to watch Stumpy!

Katie provided a 5 star experience to our very spoiled furry son! Not only did she provide a private suite for him, but she also followed our very detailed feeding instructions to ensure a happy and comfortable stay. Katie sent photos of him often and we could tell he was happy and well cared for by his actions in the photos! Thank you so much Katie and family for a stress free weekend for Gunner. He can't wait to visit again and have play time with Cooper!

Great communication and were so kind when I mixed up the dates of our trip and had to add a day last minute! We also had a flight delay and they were able to accommodate our delay for picking up our boys! We will book with them again the next time we travel!

About: I’ve got a large fenced in yard and two boys (dogs) that love to play. In the summer there will be a shallow dog pool to cool off in as well. My goldendoodle frequently will lay in it. Plenty of toys/stimulation. My dogs enjoy playing with puppies but also do really well with older/senior dogs. Plenty of bathroom breaks and attention as I am home full time. I’m also available for drop-ins, walks, and giving meds with food if needed. I am home full time and can work with your current daily or weekly routine. I start my day at 5am and don't stop until around 9-10pm. I have a large fenced in yard and two male (neutered) dogs of my own! Small shallow dog pool when the weather is nice. Dogs are fed in separate rooms. Lounging on the couch chairs is absolutely acceptable here!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur babies because I would only want the absolute best care for mine. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walks, crate routines, playtime, and of course plenty of cuddles. Living with both dogs and cats has also helped me become very attentive to animal behavior and body language, which allows me to keep pets safe, calm, and happy in my care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners feel comfortable with regular updates and photos. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life since I have two dogs and two cats of my own. My day naturally revolves around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy and comfortable. I do work full time, but my job is very flexible. When I’m booked for pet sitting, I’m able to adjust my schedule or take time off to make sure I can fully focus on the pets in my care. I prioritize reliability and planning so every pet gets the attention and consistency they deserve. My home is clean, pet-safe, and thoughtfully set up to create a calm environment. I remove any hazards, keep floors clear, secure doors and gates, and ensure all pets are supervised at all times. I follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise, and playtime — so they feel right at home. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your furry family members. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative. I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves active play, cozy naps, or extra cuddles, I tailor my care to their personality and needs. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a safe, loving home away from home.

If you want someone responsible, patient, and caring, I’d love to take care of your furry friend! 🐶💛 we accept meet and greet every Saturday. You are welcome with your pet. I check on the dogs all day, and I can give them medicine if needed, follow their feeding instructions, nap schedule, and playtime routine. I’ll make sure your furry friend has so much fun they’ll be happily tired by the end of the day. I can also send pictures and videos upon request. We even do bubble time and fetch time! Just send me a message — I’d love to care for your pup. 🐶💛 I have a fenced yard and one dog of almost 2 years old, your dog is free to walk around the inside house most of the day.

About: I have had animals in my life since I was six months old and have helped care for them since I can remember. I've been married to my husband for 33 years and we have had cats, dogs, ferrets, and fish that. We are empty nesters so our complete focus is on our dogs and your dogs when they come to join our pack. I just retired so I am home all day everyday except when I have appointments. My husband Dan is also retired. So we have all kinds of time to care for your pet. Meet the team! My name is Ruth and I'm the female human in the house and my Dan is the male human in the house. Then comes Maisy, our 6 year old toy aussiedoodle, followed by her two year old half sister Gertie, our mini aussiedoodle. Maisy is more laid back and she gets along with other laid back dogs preferably. Gertie on the other hand loves all people and all dogs. I will treat your dog like our own under our care. We offer leashed walks in our dog friendly neighborhood, belly rubs, playing fetch and generally chasing each other around in fun. My house is more the dogs home than ours - where they have furniture privileges except the tables. If they are staying the night, they will be allowed to stay in our bed or we can crate as upon preference.

Sharon is the perfect person you can trust and go on your vacation, family visit, business trip etc. She made sure my cat was okay with the environment and she kept everything clean and neat. She is so sweet to cats/dogs, my cat really enjoyed the stay. There were dogs and cats that were staying with my cat and Sharon made sure she gave her attention to everyone and united them in peace.

Dana was fantastic with our dog Dakota.Dakota is a little special dog who needs a lot of love and a lot of attention. She was abused before we got her and it just takes her a while in order to trust people by the third day. Dakota was very very comfortable when we went to pick her up. She was in attack mode and protecting Dana, which I take as a good sign because she only protects the people she loves. Dana was very accommodating to us. We had a problem with pick up, but she made it work I know when I go on our next trip we will be using Dana again because our dog Dakota loves her
