“Our dog Frida just finished her second boarding visit and loved her time with Brit and her family. It’s truly a home away from home for her. We got daily photos and updates. We have an older dog with diabetes and Brit was so helpful in being able to assist her in her feeding/medication requirements. Frida adores Brit, her family, and their dog and we look forward to using their services again moving forward!”


“There is no one I prefer to watch Sadie more than Bruce! He always updates me how she’s doing and gives her so many walks and she even eats more of her food when she’s with him! She loves Bruce and I Strongly recommend him for your fur baby. Thank you, Bruce!!!”


“Our dog loves staying with Jieun! She is very professional and communicates in a timely manner both before and during visits, but most of all we know our dog is in great hands.”


“Brianna has watched 2 dogs for us a couple of times now, and both times, she was amazing with them. One of the dogs is a low maintenance elderly dog that does need medications, and the other is a high maintenance velvro dog with fence and leash reactivity (though he does play nicely with other dogs). She has taken both into her home and embraced them as they are. I’m so impressed by how well she handles both of our dogs and we always try to book with Brianna first when we travel before making other arrangements. You won’t regret using this sitter!!”



“Howard & Kathleen are an absolute delight. We never have to worry when our girls are with them. Our girls always come home happy and content....we have been using them for more than 5 years now, highly recommend!”


“Tatyana was so nice and I felt secure leaving my two dogs with her. She accepted our last minute request, was very welcoming to Mia and Cody and provided us with many updates and pictures. I will definitely book her again”


“Noemi was wonderful with my dog and accomodating to my last minute booking! She sent me daily doggy mail and updated me on his activities. She has a beautful large fenced in yard for the dogs to run around and play. Very pleasant and my dog seemed happy when i picked him up also so i know he enjoyed himself! Will definitely book with Noemi again!”


“I highly recommend Malik for pet sitting. Hoyt and Roseau, my grand-pups received all the care and attention they needed. Malik was prompt with his responses and updated me the entire time I was out of town. That was extremely comforting. This was the first time the pups were away from family and home and they will be ten years old this October! After our meetup and conversations, I never worried a minute while I was out of town. I knew through his updates and pictures, he had everything under control. It was such a comfort knowing that my pups could maintain their routine, (and medication,) while away from home. Since my children moved, travel for me has been a no-go. Thanks to Malik that has changed. I am forever grateful.”



“I always feel great leaving Moose with Katherine! She's so so kind and thoughtful, always checking in to give updates and pictures of Moose's stay.”


“We had a fantastic experience! Kayla took such great care of our dog, Soren — it was clear from the start that she is kind, attentive, and genuinely love animals. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. In fact, I think he’s missing her! We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with Kayla again. Highly recommend!”



“Mikayla and Justin were incredible! They took such great care of my GSP Goose and sent very detailed and organized updates on how he was doing and made sure to get him an ample amount of exercise everyday. He looked so happy! Also they were extremely understanding and flexible when I had to pick him up a little late due to my return flight getting delayed. Will definitely be using them again!”


“Bianca is very responsible and does an amazing job at caring for my dog. I have left my dog with her multiple time in the past and every time she goes above and beyond. Thank you Bianca!”


“Marie was great with our frenchie Dean. I can tell by the pictures she sent us that he was well taken care of and he made himself right at home. I will definitely leave him in her care again.”


“Julissa was wonderful with Thor and very accommodating to our last minute changing schedule due to flight delays. She provided updates and photos of our pup which eased our seperation. Thank you, Julissa!”


About: I work primarily from home throughout the week. This gives me the time needed to care for anyone's pet to ensure a safe, fun environment. I dog sat for 2 years prior to my new full time role. I have fostered dogs and now I have recently adopted my own. I love dogs and look to care for anyone's pet when you need it most. Please reach out to set up a meet and greet so I can be introduced to your family member and also visit my place to see if it is a suitable temporary environment for your pet. Thanks! Look forward to hearing from you. I am home most of the time and since I have a dog of my own, any pet will fit seamlessly into his routine as well. I'm sure my dog would love to make new friends as well! I live in a dog friendly community, dog park nearby, have a fenced courtyard, riverwalk in walking distance as well. I take my dog for at least one long walk (about an hour) per day and two other times aside from that. I make sure he doesn't eat any food scraps, anything from ground outside that could be harmful either. Smoke free and alcohol free home. Can also ensure any diet or food allergies are monitored appropriately.

“I really wanna thank justin and his family for taking great care of my noss ❤️ he was a very happy puppy while in their care and I will highly recommend them to anyone and definitely will be coming back!!!”


“Zuleima was an awesome sitter. She sent me daily updates in lady and plenty of photos to show me that she was well taken care of. I will fully trust my dog with Zuleima again for future dog sitting needs.”


“We needed Jasie because our usual person was not available. Jasie lives across the street from us and we didn’t even know that until Rover! We went away Friday night to Sunday night. Jasie was great, she sent pictures, texted any questions and cared for Cadie like we would. We are so happy we found her! Will use again!”
