“Elizabeth and her family were great with my husky. They were flexible with my situation and ensured my dog was in a comfortable place. They took him to the dog park and treated him as part of their own family. Will definitely be using them again.”

“Ashley is an awesome person - she loved and cared for my little Rosie as if it were her own. She is very good at responding to messages and is extremely flexible. My little pup looked so happy in the pics during her stay with Ashley - and that made me really happy. I feel confident reaching out to Ashley again when I need pet care for Rosie. An additional benefit is that Ashley provides pick-up & drop-off service which really helped for my needs. Ashley provides quality care with a lot of love and kindness.”


“Marcella recently took care of our Beagle mix, Cleo, for six nights. She was in-tune with Cleo's routine from the start and she gave our little couch potato lots of love. Marcella sent us daily updates with photos, which was wonderful. When we picked Cleo up, she was happy to see us, but it was clear that she'd been well taken care of.at Marcella's. We'd recommend Marcella to sit for anyone's pet.”

“Madelyn and Chris were very communicative and kept us apprised throughout the weekend of how our dog Lucy was doing. She was sad to leave them and her new friend Scout! Would highly recommend them for all of your dogsitting needs.”


“We’re always a bit anxious leaving our pups behind when we travel, but there was no need this time! Lucky and Sadie were treated wonderfully, and we really loved the updates we were given. We never had to worry if they were in good hands or not. We definitely would reach out again if we need help!”

“Behice and Mert were absolutely perfect for Jojo. First of all they are the sweetest people. Very kind and gentle. They were previous cat owners themselves, which is a huge plus. Their house was clean and organized which my cat loved. Before boarding they asked lots of questions to ensure that they cared for my little fur baby exactly as needed. I appreciated that very much. They made sure to follow all the instructions and sent daily pictures and videos. Jojo immediately felt comfortable in their home as soon as we brought her there, she was playing and cuddling by day 2. Jojo had a great time at Behice/Mert’s place and can’t wait to come back for the next time. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable, kind, cat experienced sitter.”

“Matt is our go-to for boarding our Great Dane, Margo. She has a great time with the other dogs and is even excited to get dropped off. Matt does an amazing job of sending pictures on a daily basis which is awesome during a long trip and Margo gets treated as if she is part of the family!”

“Addie has stayed with Lauren before, and she enjoyed her stay this time overnight as well! She had a bath there, and her coat is so shiny and clean. We’re impressed with Lauren, and feel completely comfortable leaving Addie with her. We will be using Lauren again. Thank you!”

“David and his family are amazing! He is very diligent in sending pictures and updates. Otis loves going over there. They give him lots of love, cuddles, treats, walks, and exercise. Otis is excited every time we pull up to the house and I know he is well taken care of when he is there.”


About: About Me / Pet Care Experience I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who treats every pet with the same patience, attention, and love I would want for my own. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I’m comfortable providing walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, litter box care, basic medication administration, and maintaining a pet’s normal routine. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident knowing your pet is doing well. I have experience caring for pets and understand how important consistency, patience, and following an owner's instructions are. I take pet care seriously and always make their safety and well-being my priority. I currently have a flexible schedule and am able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m especially happy to discuss each pet’s individual routine, including how much exercise, playtime, companionship, or quiet time they need. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable—and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I'm available for drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, litter box cleaning, and lots of love and attention while you're away. I've cared for a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and birds, and I treat every pet like family. I carefully follow each owner's instructions, keep pets safe and comfortable, maintain clean food and litter areas, and provide plenty of affection, playtime, and updates with photos so you have peace of mind.
“Inga was absolutely wonderful, and we are so grateful to have found her. From the start, her experience as a veterinary technician gave us so much peace of mind, especially since our dog Bill had a minor medical issue on day one. Inga definitely saved us a vet trip. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly very comfortable handling dogs made of tissue paper like our greyhound. What truly stood out was Inga’s dedication and care during a very stressful time. Even while dealing with a medical emergency involving her own dog, she continued to make sure Bill was happy, safe, and well cared for. That level of professionalism and compassion is rare and speaks volumes about who she is. It’s also clear that she runs a loving, household — between her three poodles and her three sons, Bill was surrounded by warmth, activity, and affection. He came home happy and content. We would trust Inga again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and truly exceptional Rover. 💛”

“Awesome first stay with Max! He took great care of our senior beagles, including pills, special food and frequent walks. We got daily updates on how they were adjusting to their new routine, and cute photos too! We will be back the next time we want to spare our dogs from boring vet kennels!”

“Rania did a great job watching our dog and sent us updates as well is video. She was accommodating and Namah had a great time in her fenced in back yard. I would recommend her to care for your fury friend and will definitely use her for our future needs.”

About: For 28+ years, dogs have been part of my heart and home. I create a calm, loving sanctuary where every little paw in my care feels safe, nurtured, and right at home. I’m a stay-at-home dog mom, so caring for dogs is already part of my everyday routine. Sevyn and I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, two amazing small paw dog parks, fresh air, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. I often have the small paw dog park all to myself while everyone else is at work. That gives your fur baby plenty of room to safely run, play, explore, and enjoy outdoor time without the crowd. I’m available for weekday and weekend boarding, as well as fun play dates when you need a little time for yourself while your fur baby gets companionship, exercise, and healthy socialization. My days are flexible and peaceful, so your little one can enjoy a relaxed home-away-from-home experience with plenty of attention throughout the day My home is kept pet-safe and all natural fabrics and products,from the bedding your fur baby rests on to the gentle, pet-safe cleaning products I use throughout my home. Doors and entryways are always secured, and anything potentially harmful is kept safely out of reach. Fur babies are fed according to their normal routine and can have their own peaceful little “sacred space” for meals, rest, quiet time, or simply when they need a little time to themselves. I pay attention to what makes each fur baby feel safe and secure, because every dog is different and deserves to be cared for in a way that feels comfortable to them.
“Miguelina and her daughter Lindsey were amazing! They had no problem giving one of my dogs her pills and were also super accommodating with our flight delays. Our pups were right at home and seem so happy!”

“Another great stay with Laia! She is our go to dogsitter and a talented pet photographer also. We love her updates and positivity. Thanks for taking care of our pups!”

Erin watched our dog, Penny, for 10 days while we were out of town. I asked to meet her and her pups before arranging such a long stay and she encouraged it :) This set my mind at ease being able to meet in person first. At drop off, I shared I was feeling a bit anxious leaving Penny for a longer stay and Erin offered to communicate often. Each day, she touched base with me at least once with pictures, videos, and messages about how Penny was doing. This made me feel so much better and allowed me to enjoy my trip. Thanks Erin!

CJ was absolutely fantastic with my dog! Having never left my pet with anyone besides family, I was quite nervous. After searching through countless sitters, I chose CJ, and I couldn't have made a better decision. He provided daily photos and updates, and the overall vibe was just perfect! My dog looked so comfortable that I wondered if she would even want to come home! Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience!

I had an amazing experience with Maya!!! She was incredible kind, reliable and attentive throughout the time my sky was with her. I really appreciated how quick she responded whenever I checked in, a the updates gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my sky was cared for and loved. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!!!

Hanna and Fabio are Peanut Butter’s favorites and took excellent care of him. We received timely updates and felt very comfortable leaving our pup in their care. Fabio really went above and beyond and worked with our schedule to accommodate pick up and drop offs and we really appreciate their flexibility. Thanks for everything!
