“Dalton is absolutely awesome! My pups loved him from the first moment they met him. He sent a ton of pictures and updates and I felt very at ease knowing he was there with my pups while I was away.”

“We’ve booked Morgan three times now to care for our Maltese, Yuki, and she has been amazing every single time. Yuki is always so well taken care of, and it gives us real peace of mind knowing she’s in such good hands. Morgan is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”

“I can’t thank Sara enough for taking such wonderful care of my Yuki while I was on a 7-day trip to Europe. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and safe. When I came home, my Yuki was relaxed and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter—I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Loarann was amazing!! This was my first time using in-home boarding so I was nervous but she was so sweet and so communicative. I never once had to worry or wonder what was going on which is huge for when you go on a trip that’s stressful enough! I honestly think she left the place better than she found it and was so kind about my house being kind of a sight these days because of renovations. She seems to truly love animals and I will 100% use her again in the future, no question.”
“Abigail did an excellent job staying at my house and taking care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we went out of town. She is very trustworthy and I really appreciated the daily photos!! I will call Abby next time for sure. Thanks Abby!!”

“Raylin was amazing! She sat our two pups in our house for almost a week. This was the first time we have left them alone at home this long and she took great care of them. They really took to her. We will definitely reach back out to Raylin when we need a sitter again!”

“Monese was amazing with my boys! She adapted to their schedule, took amazing care of them, and provided updates so I knew they were doing good! 10/10 recommend!! So grateful for the love and care she provided!”

“Bo is an absolute blessing to me and my babies! She stayed at my house for 3 nights and kept me updated with photos. She was very responsive. I came home to happy pets and a clean house. I would absolutely recommend Bo, the dog whisperer! We love her!!”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover, and dedicated pet caregiver who understands that pets are cherished members of the family. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands while you're away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including administering insulin injections and caring for cats with diabetes. I understand the importance of maintaining feeding schedules, monitoring behavior, and following detailed care instructions to keep pets healthy, safe, and comfortable. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or overnight companionship, I will provide personalized attention based on their individual needs and personality. I pride myself on being patient, reliable, and attentive, and I will keep you updated with messages and photos throughout my visits. As a school counselor, caring for others is at the heart of what I do. I bring that same compassion, responsibility, and trustworthiness to every pet I care for. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! My schedule is very flexible during the summer since I am off work from my counseling job. This allows me to provide attentive care, accommodate a variety of schedules, and spend quality time with your pets throughout the day. When caring for pets in your home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and lots of love and attention. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including administering insulin injections to diabetic cats and caring for pets with special medical needs. I understand that every pet is unique and will provide personalized care to help them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind.
“Chelsea was phenomenal watching our two dogs while we went away for a weekend trip! From the moment we left, she went above and beyond—sending regular pictures and videos that gave us complete peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. She made sure our pups had everything they needed, stuck closely to their routines, and clearly treated them like her own. Her communication, attention to detail, and genuine care exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing, reliable pet sitter. 11/10!”

“Susanna is the absolute best!!! She is the sweetest, kindest, most gentle and loving human. There was an instant connection with her and I. And her and our pets. I felt safe and comfortable with her and my pets in a way I have never had. She gave updates. And I felt like i was talking with my friend. I never had to worry once with our precious cargo. I knew they were well loved, and well taken care of. She’s just the most magical human. Bringing a sense of calm to our entire household. ❤️”

“Willow was fabulous with my fur baby.....made sure she was well cared for and safe from the anxiety of fireworks. Willow is also very responsive and proved to be very reliable and caring, sharing images and updates while I was away.”

About: I probably get along with dogs more than I do people. I've grown up with many, and have rescued most of the ones I have owned. Dogs are so much more than pets to me, they are family! They are such a big part of my life that I even went to school to become a vet assistant. However, life interfered and I never acquired my certificate (out of time frame, I passed my tests?). In the past two years, I’ve acquired my CCMA, and am studying now to become an RN. I love taking care of people and pets. :) I have experience pet sitting as well as working at a doggy daycare-one of my favorite jobs! Now I have bigger bills to pay, and children to take care of. However, I loved it so much that I would like to get back into doing this on the side. It’s a win-win for the both of us, because I get doggo lovings, and you get your doggo taken care of!
About: I believe great pet care goes beyond just showing up. I take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and needs. With reliable communication, genuine care, and attention to detail, I make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and secure in familiar surroundings. I’m currently working from home so I have time throughout the day to care for your pup! Pet care is part of my everyday routine. I make time for regular check-ins, walks, and quality time so pets feel comfortable, cared for, and never rushed. I actually live in an apartment but we have a dog park and it is amazing. I also have 2 sweet boys who would love to keep your sweet pup company. I also take them for walks and we can even go to a dog park to play! If it’s in your home we can go for walks around the neighborhood/area of the home.
“Our doodle loved Stephen immediately and the other dog is more cautious but warmed up to him. It is clear that Stephen loves and understands dogs, even the high-maintenance ones.”
