“Julianna took excellent care of everyone while we were away. She is great with multiple pets including large birds. I highly recommend Julianna for any pet sitting needs.”


About: I have had 2 dogs, 13 and 18 respectively and I took care of both of them before they passed away. I regularly dog sit for neighbors and family friends. I am currently only working weekends so I have plenty of time to take care of your puppies! I can come 5 days a week any time during the day😊 I will work with clients to ensure that I am honoring their wishes for how they want their dog to be taken care of to guarantee a safe and loving experience for both dog and owner!

About: We are a family of dog lovers! My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and though we don’t have pets currently, our love of dogs keeps us pet sitting and dog walking around our neighborhood. We have 3 young children who absolutely adore dogs, and love taking responsibility in taking care of them when we are pet sitting. We have a lot of snuggles to give your pups, and lots of walks to take them on, too! I am a stay at home mom so our schedule is pretty flexible! We are up early, and outside often. Any timing should be fine for us to work around. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby. We can play fetch with your pup, give them lots of snuggles, and plenty of walks!

About: I've cared for everything from energetic puppies who need consistent training and socialization, to senior dogs who require patience, medication, and gentle movement.Whether it’s a zoomie-filled play session or a slow stroll with an older pup, I adjust to each dog’s pace and personality. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I'm currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pup. My shifts end at 2pm so I am available anytime after 2. I care for pets like they’re my own—with love, routine, and a calm environment. I have a friendly 4 year old Australian Shepard to keep your puppy busy. I have a fully fenced-in yard, perfect for safe outdoor play. Pets in my home get plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles, along with a quiet space to relax when they need it. I keep things clean, stress-free, and tailored to each pet’s needs.

About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a Goldendoodle for 9 years, I bring patience, reliability, and real hands-on experience to every walk and visit. I’m currently looking for full-time work and working part-time currently, so I am very flexible with my timing. I am around during the week and most weekends. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with space to play and relax. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. I give lots of attention, maintain routines, and keep pet parents updated with photos and notes.


“Heeyoung was awesome. We had a wedding to go to and realized last minute that we needed someone to watch Ollie, our 4 month old Basenji. We contacted Heeyoung the day before, she responded so quickly and was able to come to our house, meet Ollie, go over all the instructions and we were all set. She came on the night of the wedding, texted us when she got to our house, she also texted us all the details of her visit, and then again when she left. Such a terrific experience and Heeyoung was so gentle and caring with Ollie. Will definitely will be using Heeyoung for future dog sitting and will be meeting with her over the summer to discuss boarding Ollie when we go on vacation. Thank you Heeyoung!!”
