Denise was excellent! She took great care of my dog by making sure he was slowly introduced to her own dogs, gave him lots of space to play, and gave thorough report cards. She was very personable and was available for my family at the last minute. Thank you, Denise!

My puppy Sonic and I are so lucky to have found someone as reliable and trustworthy as Evelyn. I got many videos of Sonic throughout the day and he was just having a blast. I will be booking again. Thank you Evelyn !

I was honestly very nervous using an online dog sitter for the first time because my biggest fear was being scammed or something happening to my dog. But from the moment I dropped my dog off, Paloma made me feel completely at ease. She communicated with me throughout the entire day, sent plenty of pictures and updates, and was always quick to respond. It was so comforting seeing how loved, safe, and cared for my dog was while I was away. You can truly tell she cares about the animals she watches. I’m so grateful for the experience, and I would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!

We had a last minute booking due to an unexpected situation and we were desperately in need of a babysitter for our little guy. Karla was extremely responsive, friendly, and caring. My little guy just walked right in to her home as if he knew her all his life. He looked so happy when I picked him up. I will definitely recommend Karla and will be using her services again.

About: I have extensive experience working in Veterinary Emergency Care, which has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, safety, and how to recognize even subtle changes in a pet's well-being. I provide personalized boarding in my home and only accept one family at a time, allowing pets to enjoy a calm, low-stress environment with plenty of supervision and one on one attention. Unlike boarding facilities or sitters who care for multiple dogs at once, your pet will receive individualized care in a quiet home environment. I work primarily from home and rarely leave for more than an hour or two, so pets receive plenty of companionship, playtime indoors/outdoors, and potty breaks throughout the day. I'm happy to follow your pet's routine and reinforce any training or habits you're already working on at home. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, high-energy dogs, anxious pets, and dogs that need extra patience or monitoring. I take pride in maintaining a clean, organized, and pet-safe home environment, helping reduce access to potential hazards while providing a comfortable and healthy space for every guest. To ensure a safe and comfortable stay for everyone, I ask owners to disclose any medical, behavioral, or special care needs before booking. While I have experience caring for pets that require extra attention or monitoring, I DO NOT accept dogs that are actively in heat, contagious, or experiencing illness that may impact their stay or the safety, health, and well-being of the pets in my home. Communication is very important to me, and you'll receive regular photos, videos, and updates throughout your pet's stay. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, and for owners to feel completely at ease while they're away. I work from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide regular walks, feeding, and companionship without long periods of absence. I am home most of the time, and if I step out, it is only for short periods (typically no more than 1–2 hours). I keep a calm and flexible routine so each dog can settle in comfortably and feel at home during their stay. ✨ Additional services available: Puppy potty training support during stays. I provide care in a clean, calm, and thoughtfully organized home environment. I typically host only one dog at a time so I can give them my full attention and create a peaceful, low-stress experience. I live just two blocks from multiple large parks, which allows for regular walks and outdoor time. I also have two small Shih Tzus at home who are friendly and used to being around other dogs; however, I can keep them completely separate if needed to ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe.

Brianna was so sweet plus easy to coordinate with. She treated Dory to a special day, pickup, play in the park, bath and blow dry, and brush and a little trimming her bangs. Dory had so much fun! I highly recommend Brianny!

Zuleyka took Blue in for 8 days. She was very flexible with the reservation since I confirmed almost last minute. There was not one day without many updates and pictures, and she also bathed Blue as he got dirty. Zuleyka was very professional and friendly since the beginning to end, not to mention that Blue was not behaving too good at first and she was still ok with him and communicating all Blue’s needs and moods as he was sad without us. I could see how his fave changed to a quick “Happy” a couple of days later. I would definitely book Zuleyka again in the future.

About: Hi! I’m Andrea, your fur baby’s new bestie! I’ve taken care of various types of pets (hamsters, bunnies, dogs and cats) since I was 12. In addition to caring for my own fur babies, I’ve cared for pets of family members, friends and even clients I also babysat and house-sat for. I am responsible, treat all fur babies as if they were my own, and know just how to keep them happy, healthy and entertained while you’re away! I work from home, allowing for a lot of time and flexibility for multiple walks, meals and play breaks throughout the day, both during the week and over the weekend. I am very responsible and communicative, will ask thorough questions upfront about any routines, medicines and care tips and share regular updates with you throughout my visits.

About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.

About: I have had dogs since I was 8 years old, from Standard Poodle’s, to Shih tzu’s, to Boxer/Bulldogs! I have tons of experience with pups of all sizes. At the moment, I have to amazing dogsLouie and Lennon. Louie is a Retriever/Setter mix and Lennon and is Coonhound, both rescues. I have had Louie from 8 weeks old and am a pro with puppies and older dogs alike. Before my two loves, I had a Boxer/Bulldog mix Hudson. She was the epitome of a “gentle giant”. I know it sounds cliche, but large of small, I really do love every single one of them! I am currently working Freelance and am able to adjust my schedule as needed to provide the best care for your pups. I also love to run and love to friends come with me! I have a fenced in yard and two super friendly pups at home. If needed I can use a crate for your (or my!) pups if needed. Whatever matches the level of care they receive at home.

Benji had such a great day with Gargi and Sourav and Archie! He got to run around in the yard, play, and was clearly super well cared for the whole time. I loved getting all the photo updates throughout the day. It was so nice seeing how happy and comfortable he was. You can really tell he was in good hands, and Archie was such a fun buddy for him to hang out with. Benji came home happy :) Would definitely book again!

I cannot thank Karla enough for providing an amazing care to our dog, Miley. I had to book her as last min booking while we were traveling and we couldn’t leave our dog for long hours at the hotel. Karla sent us numerous photos throughout the day when she was taking care of Miley from 9am-5pm. She was informative on how our dog was settling in, how she was spending time, or taking treats etc. She made our travel stress free because we knew Miley was getting a gray care. I would highly recommend her to any dog owners 🙌🏻👏🏻❤️

Jinghong is amazing! She always keeps my girlfriend and me updated on our little man’s progress throughout the day. She sends photos and videos so we can see how much fun our golden retriever is having. Her dog, Yogurt, is the sweetest dog in the world. He welcomed our little guy with open paws when they first met, and they’ve been playing and hanging out together ever since. It’s been so comforting to know he has such a great buddy. Jinghong takes care of our little man like he’s one of her own. She always asks how we’d like him cared for and checks in to make sure she’s meeting our expectations—never overstepping, just showing genuine care and professionalism. We truly couldn’t be happier to have found Jinghong and Yogurt for our little guy! 😊

Danny (and Rebecca) showed much patience when I called. He answered my questions, even if I repeated (I'm older and sometimes forget). He reassured me when I asked what his daily dog schedule is When I made inquiry with concern about Meshy's foibles, he was direct, informative. He did not personalize as a question of his ability, but understood questions as a concern about  dog behavior.  When we setup MEET & GREET, he introduced dogs, 1 at a time, giving Meshy and his dogs, a chance to meet without being overwhelmed. He remained approachable, but let Meshy approach him in his own time. I found Danny to be alert and perceptive to dogs, patient with my concerns as 'dog parent'. I would definitely return for care for Meshy.

Nancy took good care of my dog Shiloh for a week, he enjoyed so much staying there that when he was getting dropped off for day care, he would run up to Nancy’s front door excited for his day there. I’m sure if my pup could leave a rating, he would also give 5 stars. I’m very satisfied and will be rebooking with Nancy in the near future. Thanks Nancy!
