Rachel was amazing! I truly appreciate the updates each evening. It put me at ease while I was away. She was very observant of Toby’s behaviors and his comfort level which I appreciated. Toby & I can’t wait to book again. Thanks again Rachel ❤️

I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Shirley for the weekend. He has separation anxiety and she was accommodating towards his needs to ensure he had a stress free stay with her. I appreciate how she was flexible with my drop off and pick up times. Would definitely hire her again!

About: Over 15 years of loving, hands-on experience with dogs of all kinds, including seniors and medically sensitive pups. I treat every dog like family, providing walks, playtime, meals, and gentle care tailored to their unique needs. Patient, dependable, and passionate about keeping tails wagging and pups happy. I’m available on weekends, holiday breaks, and after-hours during weekdays. With my flexible schedule, I can give plenty of playtime, walks, and attention to each pup, ensuring they feel loved and active throughout their stay. My home features a secure, fenced yard and a friendly dog who love companionship. I provide safe walks, structured play, and can crate or supervise dogs as needed, ensuring a nurturing, reliable environment for every furry guest.

Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and intuition I bring to every animal I work with. I’m not just a sitter—I genuinely understand dogs on a deeper level. I’ve helped deliver puppies, cared for senior dogs with patience and attention to their changing needs, and I have hands-on experience rehabilitating abused and neglected animals. That means I’m calm, observant, and able to read behavior quickly—whether it’s a nervous rescue or an energetic puppy still learning boundaries. I’m especially comfortable with puppies (potty training, basic commands, structure) and senior dogs who need a slower pace, medication, or extra comfort. I also naturally go above and beyond—whether that’s making sure routines are followed closely, giving extra affection, or keeping a close eye on subtle changes in behavior or health. Outside of sitting, caring for animals is just part of who I am. I regularly feed and look out for stray animals, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be understood, protected, and genuinely cared for. As an only child, I’ve always found a deep sense of comfort and connection in caring for dogs. Being able to meet their needs, earn their trust, and give them love brings me a genuine sense of purpose and fulfillment. It’s something that feels natural to me, and it’s a big part of why I’m so dedicated to the care I provide. I have a large, fully fenced yard with low grass, which creates a safe and comfortable space for dogs to walk, play, run, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time.

Michael and Michele were absolutely amazing! They watched Clover for a recent 5-day trip and we couldn’t have asked for a better Rover experience. Michael and Michele took the time to know and understand Clover’s quirks and we felt comfortable enjoying our time away knowing she was in good hands. Will definitely be reaching out to them for future trips!

Edith was amazing! Highly recommend her. Great communication and would send us daily photo updates. Which we appreciated so much! It was our first time leaving our dog with someone outside of family and we never once felt like he wasn't with family because of her responsiveness. She would also make sure he would get his daily walks in. I would definitely use Edith again.
