About: I've taken care of many animals, including dogs and cats. I'm experienced with all sizes of dogs and even have a pet friendly home with my own dog. I'm currently not working so I can put a lot of hours into this. I'm a hard working and watchful sitter who loves playing with animals and caring for them. I live in an apartment so I don't have a yard but I do walk daily and would love a chance to meet other dogs.

16. Bellona W.

“Ann was amazing with my 2 large dogs!! You can tell Ann is a dog lover and took time to give attention to both of my dogs during daily check-ins. One of my dogs is recovering from surgery and Ann was able to give her special attention and make sure she was safely in her recovery crate after each visit. I could tell my dogs had a good time playing with Ann and I loved getting photos Ann sent from the check-in appointments! I would definitely book Ann again and recommend her to anyone looking for help with their pups.”

“Mariel truly exceeded my expectations in the care she provides for my fur baby Dukes. She has a heart of gold and creates a fantastic experience for my boy. Her expertise is evident, and she is worth every penny and then some! She is hands down the best dog sitter I've ever had. The photo updates she sends are so reassuring and always brighten my day! In every picture, Dukes was captured cozied up or racing with pure joy on his face. Mariel has been incredibly accommodating with my work schedule and consistently goes the extra mile to ensure Dukes is well taken care of while I'm away. She's genuinely a kind and wonderful person, making every interaction the sweetest. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”
