Luciane and Luciano took care of my dog for 5 days and took such good care, he wasn’t even excited to see me when I got home. He was super happy there and walked a ton! They took so many photos and I got to see them all. I got plenty of updates on how he was doing. I was totally relaxed on my vacation because I knew he was in good hands! I seriously recommend them to watch your pets, they’re amazing at their job. DON’T waste your time looking for another petsitter, they’re the best around.?

This is the second time we have used Connie and we were happy yet again! Our dog was so excited to come in and be with Connie and Jojo at drop off. She sent pictures and kept in touch while we were away. Marco is blind, so I am sure he is extra work, but Connie has been amazing and we will use her again!! Thanks so much!!

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I adapt to their needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely enjoy being around dogs. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, walks, routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you feel at ease while away. My goal is to create a warm, low-stress environment where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy — not just watched. It would truly be an honor to care for your dog and give them the same love and attention every pet deserves. Daily and evening care including walks, feedings, playmate, bath time and bed time with any other activities including the dog park when availabe based on weathe. Pets are free to roam while I am home and crated when I need to run errands. They are treated like the rest of the family.

Ian was terrific! He was attentive to detail, an excellent communicator, and conveyed a genuine warmth and care for our dogs. We were immediately comfortable knowing our dogs would be receiving great care. Upon return, our dogs were made an easy transition home, confirming that they were, indeed, in good hands with Ian!

So, I know she was awesome because I was waiting for my puppies/babies to be super excited and uncontrollable when they saw me and NOPE they were cool calm and collected because they really liked Jan. They felt at home with her and not sure what she did, but they are definitely more chill. I will only use Jan going forward if she'll have us because she's also reasonable price wise.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of hiring Emily to take care of Mel, my beloved dog, while I was away. From the initial meet-and-greet to the daily updates during my trip, I was thoroughly impressed with the level of care and attention provided. Emily took the time to understand Mel's routine, preferences, and any quirks that might need special attention. It was evident that they genuinely love dogs and have a strong understanding of their needs. Every day, I received updates and photos that put my mind at ease, showcasing how happy and comfortable my pup was in their care. Not only did Emily provide regular meals and exercise, but they also engaged in fun activities and even took Mel on walks to the river walk. I could tell that my dog was getting plenty of love and attention, which is so important when you're away from home. Upon my return, Mel seemed relaxed and happy, which reassured me that I made the right choice by entrusting Emily with their care. I highly recommend Emily to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. They exceeded my expectations and truly treated Mel as if they were their own. I will definitely be reaching out for future sitting needs! Thank you, Emily, for your outstanding service!

Chad and his wife were amazing. He was super communicative and sent lots of fun videos and pictures. He was truly excited to watch my dogs and it showed in the care he gave them. He was super flexible too, I accidentally booked the stay for one less day than I needed and he was more than happy to book the extra day with me. I’ll use Chad again for sure!

I was really nervous leaving my dog with a sitter however after meeting Vicky I was ok leaving my dog with her. Vicky has a calming soul, which you will notice if you ever meet her. I knew my dog was in good hands. Pictures and videos were sent to me regularly which was much appreciated.

We had a great experience with Stacy! We started with a meet and greet, and she was wonderful with our 10-year-old dog, Reggie. She was super friendly, communicated clearly throughout, and it was obvious from the start that she genuinely loves dogs. Reggie especially enjoyed all the time she spent with him outside, which is one of his favorite things. We felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care and would happily recommend Stacy to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

She has been such an amazing dog sitter for my pup! She is incredibly sweet, clearly loves and cares for the dogs she watches, and always makes me feel at ease leaving my dog with her. She’s very easy to coordinate with for both drop-off and pick-up, which makes everything seamless and stress-free. I also really appreciate the daily updates and photos — it’s so nice knowing my pup is happy, loved, and well cared for while I’m away. Highly recommend!
