“Devon was an excellent sitter for our cat Moose. She fed him and played with him while we were away for a week. Devon was responsible, quick to respond, sent photos of Moose everyday, and wrote about each visit. Good communication and clearly loves what she does! Cats don’t always warm up to people right away, but Moose did when they first met. Devon even came to meet us and Moose before booking which was very helpful! I will definitely be using Devon again!!”


“Leo has been cared for by Danielle twice now and she has gone above and beyond !!! She had gotten him food the first time I went away on short notice. This time she was willing to go check on him when our flight got delayed !!! Honestly does a great job and I will keep her on the top of my list in the future.”


“Katrina was the best with my dog and cat. She kept me updated every visit and they seem comfortable with her. She fed them and kept the space clean for them! I would definitely book her again.”


About: I have cared for animals, including rescues puppies and have some experience with senior dogs as well. I love to get to know them and their individual needs. I currently am a stay at home mom and so I have flexibility to come to your home and care for your pet while you’re at work or away on vacation. I will give your pet the love and attention they deserve and need. Taking them on walks and playing in the yard (dogs). Cats I will gladly pet and play with as well.

About: Proficient in providing dogs with stimulating and safe walks. Meticulous in following schedules with feeding. Comfortable and experienced in administering oral and topical medications. Knowledgable in basic dog first aid and safety protocols. As an owner of a 5 year old Golden Retriever since puppy age, and dog sitter, I have taken the responsibility of taking care of any dog! I strictly follow eating schedules and/or medication schedules. I pay as much attention as possible, as an owner of a golden this is a must! I make sure I leave a safe environment for my doggies. I attend to their needs whether it is to be by themselves, or get all the playing time they need!

“Just moved to Westminster a couple months ago and was nervous about finding care for my kitty over Thanksgiving holiday. Michelle did a wonderful job. She will be my go-to when looking for care in the future. No issues whatsoever.”


About: I adore animals more than people ? It’s probably true ! They provide therapy unconditional love and they deserve the best care and cuddles when they are not with their family I work full time but I can check on pets before work after work and weekends I am flexible I work in the medical field so compassion is my thing! I would care for your pet the same way that you care for them. I’d try to keep their schedule the same. I’d provide food , water, treats, potty love and cuddles

About: I’m a very responsible and loving pet owner. Have rescued many pets and now have found myself with some free time and would love to help new pets and people!

(Monday, Tuesday & Friday I can be available for a few hours in the am) I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to play and a kiddie pool to cool off in! I have three very friendly doggos myself but plenty of space so they can be kept separate if you desire.

“Kellee did a fantastic job with our kitties. Followed the feeding instructions. They can be difficult since one of our kitties is 19. She went over and above and brought in our mail. We will hire her again.”


“Misty has had excellent communication from day 1. My three pups took to her immediately which made us feel at ease. She was able to give us a hand with short notice when we had some last minute changes to our work hours. We received some adorable photos of our babies when she came by to let them out. If you’re looking for someone who loves dogs, can work with a flexible schedule and has excellent communication then Misty is your person.”


“Nicolina did such a great job taking care of our cat while we were on vacation! Our cat sometimes has accidents outside the litter box when we are away and Nicolina had no issues cleaning it up. She also vacuumed around the litter box! She was even able to water our outdoor plants while we were away. Nicolina did an amazing job and we will definitely use her again!”

“Joan was kind enough to fill in when our regular sitter couldn’t on last minutes notice! She was so wonderful with our pets and left detailed info in each check in. Will be using Joan again! :)”



About: We have a great fenced back yard, it is divided in two different areas providing a better environment according to your pet's need, where your dog can enjoy a sand box, trampoline and even swim in the pool like our dog does(if he is used to it). If he enjoys to run and play our half acre yard should be a great option. In our home your pet will sleep with our dog and have the same attention we provide her. We also have a nice basement where Molly plays when raining and 2 dog kennels outside that she uses to take naps when she wants(door stays open all the time) with plenty space and all the comfort necessary, but she usually prefers to run free and play in the yard the entire day. One thing is for sure: your pet will be loved and treated as part of our family, having lots of fun with our kids, something he will not be able to get at a regular "dog hotel". We do ask the owner's that all dogs are groomed prior to the boarding/daycare. We also board other pets like birds, turtles, guinea pig, etc. Because we do not have a huge house eventually, depending on the number of dogs we may have on a certain day, we cannot accept big dogs like German Shepherd or dogs around the same size and weight. We do require a MEET AND GREET for new dogs. I have been a trainer for over 30 years. My kids do homeschool so your pet will not be alone. There's always someone around. Also my wife only leaves to work if Iam home. I have a friendly dog, Molly, that will play with your dog the entire day and besides that my two kids love to interact with all the pets we have around. I have been a dog trainer for over 30 years and I am happy I have been able to be around them my entire life. My entire family loves dogs.

She has been amazing with our golden retriever, Gracie — from making sure she’s well-fed and exercised to giving her all the love and attention she needs. She’s patient, dependable, and always on top of walks, feedings, and playtime when we are away or on vacation. Gracie absolutely adores her, and it’s clear she has a natural connection with animals.

Becky T.
“I have known Becky E for almost two years. She is naturally caring at heart. She is selfless and always helping others both humans and animals. My animals love Becky. My dog wants to hop in her car as soon as she pulls in. Becky and my dog have a natural bond. I also have two cats, one typical and one who is very skittish. Becky took her time and slowly created a relationship with this cat. Becky is trustworthy, reliable, kind, caring and nurturing. Clients will fall in love and might be a little jealous if their pets like her more. My pets would gladly have me go on vacation just so they can be taken care of by Becky.”
