About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!

Our dog is very particular and we searched for a good sitter and Christine put our mind at ease. Communication was great and our dog, Chloe, fell very comfortable with her. We will use Christine in the future for our dog's sitting needs for sure.

Can’t say enough great things about Balaji and his wife, & let’s not forget their sweet furry child, Mocha! Who has become such a best friend to our Penny. We are incredibly happy with their hosting of our doodle. Their communication, updates (pics/vidoes) is truly incredible! They are understanding with work schedules and do their utmost to accommodate. I also really appreciate all of the walks that Penny enjoys with Mocha! Huge benefit to her health. Thank you again! Excited for next time!

Michael took such good care of my dog Jordan. Jordan has a few health issues and Michael was able to administer his medication on time. He also sent me pictures and updates during the day.

Liz and Kristopher took excellent care of our 4 month old pup on his first day away from us since we adopted him. I was happy he not only was well taken care of but that he got to socialize with their pets. Liz updated me throughout the day with photos and videos which was reassuring. I definitely plan to book them for our pups first overnight soon.

Judith was incredibly caring and compassionate while watching my senior dog. When I picked him up, she gave me a full report, and it was clear she had truly bonded with him. It’s evident that she puts her heart into caring for animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands.
