“Second time Ty stays with Jennifer and she and her family is great! Definitely Ty is going to stay with her every time we travel and she is available. We feel very comfortable when we are traveling and Ty is under her care. Thank you so much one more time for the great help and care. Happy New Year!”
“Debra did a great job of making us and our dog, Skye, feel welcome. She sent us daily updates with pictures of Skye with her family or out taking walks. She was a last minute provider for us as our usual care person was not available for the dates we needed. She only keeps one guest dog at a time. Skye and her dog, Ginger, got along well.”
“Tracey is very sweet and responsive. Our Luna would get daily walks and we’d get daily photos and updates on her wellbeing. We’ve entrusted our dog with her a couple of times already and would continue to leave her under her care.”
“We left our dogs Rocky and Daisy with Wendy who we met beforehand and Wendy was so kind and you can tell she loves animals that we felt comfortable with leaving our fur babies with her while on a 3 day outing. Wendy sent me pictures and kept me updated with Rocky and Daisy which I really appreciated. We will definitely ask Wendy to watch them again!!!”
“Vince is amazing. I would give 10 stars if I could. I cannot thank this man enough for taking on our huge puppy very last minute and dealing with our crazy schedule. He has been absolutely wonderful to work with ,Vince put our nerves at ease (being that it was the first time our puppy had been watched outside of our home and by a new person.) he was in constant contact with us, sent pictures and ,exercised him. Zeus has been living his best life. Will definitely being using him again.”
“It was our first time leaving our puppy Kobie for over a week but it’s safe to say she had a blast at Valary’s. We got pictures, videos, and lots of updates that put our worries at ease. It was great to see her coming out of her shell and making lots of new friends. I recommend her services 100%.”
About: Hi there! I’m Yolanda, a dedicated and loving pet sitter with a passion for giving your furry family members the same care and comfort they get at home. I know how much your pets mean to you — because they mean just as much to me! ✨ Why You’ll Love Leaving Your Pet With Me: • 🏡 Home Away From Home: Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, long walks, or playtime in the yard, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and loved every moment you’re away. • 🕒 Reliable & Flexible: I take pride in my punctuality and excellent communication. Updates and adorable photos? You’ll get them daily! • 🐶 All Pets Welcome: From energetic puppies to senior sweethearts needing meds, I’m experienced with pets of all ages and personalities. • 💚 Safety First: I treat every pet like my own — lots of love, but also the highest attention to safety, routine, and your instructions. ✨ A Little About Me: Animals have been a huge part of my life for 35+ years. I grew up with dog’s, cat’s and cows, and I’ve cared for everything from shy rescue pups to playful kittens and even senior dogs with special needs. Morning starts with feeding time and a quick check to make sure they’re healthy and comfortable. If I have a dog, there’s that refreshing morning walk — a chance for both of us to stretch our legs and breathe in the day ahead. If it’s a cat, maybe it’s a playful moment or just sharing a quiet breakfast together while they curl up nearby. I take pet care seriously and always treat animals with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. In my daily routine, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. I stick to feeding schedules, provide plenty of fresh water, and keep their living areas clean and tidy.
“Jeremy and his lovely wife were great! I will definitely use them again. I left my 2 dogs with them over the weekend… from my initial interaction with them to pick up on Sunday night I felt comfortable leaving my girls with them! One of my dogs is about 30 lbs, the other is 100 lbs. The big dog is extremely attached to me (and yes… spoiled) and has never been left with anyone we don’t know. She can have a mind of her own, becoming a challenge at times. I was a little nervous about how she would act, but they said she was fine and got along great with their pug! They sent pictures of their adventures which was great! They live near some nice walking trails so I’m sure the dogs really enjoyed their walks. I would highly recommend Jeremy and his wife!!!”
“Bomby took an excellent care of Teddy, she kept me updated throughout the day and I had peace of mind being away from my dog knowing he’s in good hands.Thanks again Bomby for your help!”

I got pictures and updates and I felt very secure that she was in good hands during our weekend away! We will definitly be using her again and would recommend her to others looking for peace of mind for good pet care during their absence!”
“I can’t recommend Carrie enough! She goes above and beyond to ensure Boujee is comfortable and happy, with plenty of playtime and attention. My dog absolutely loves spending time with her, which makes me confident in leaving him in her care. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Mochi is very particular with who is comfortable with. We set up a meet & greet and within minutes I knew Mochi would be in good hands. She did great sending me updates and pics throughout his stay. She was able to get him acclimated not only to her, but her family and her dog. I highly recommend May! Your fur baby will be in great hands!”
About: I have had pets my entire life and can't imagine living without them! I have two senior dogs (18 and 15 years old). I am recently retired and looking for a way to fill my days with more love while making a little money and getting more exercise. I am available ANYTIME during the week to care for your pets. I may assist on weekends occasionally; however, I like to spend most weekends with my amazing husband (who still works). I will make you and your pet my priority and will give them 100% of my attention and love. I am available anytime Monday - Friday (early morning to early evening). I am abundantly cautious and caring. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have two very old dogs, so I understand caring for senior pets as well as the young whippersnappers with puppy-energy!

Had a great experience boarding our dog JoJo with Jennifer. Her entire family, including her four legged kids made JoJo feel right at home. It’s clear that Jennifer loves animals, and gives them constant attention and affection while in her care. Throughout JoJo’s stay, Jennifer gave us regular updates with photos which we loved and appreciated. We very highly recommend her services!
I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! She took such great care of my dog—always by her side, making sure she was never lonely. My dog got plenty of activities, fresh air, and attention every day. She even gave her a bath before returning her, and my dog came back refreshed, fluffy, and super happy! It’s clear she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!
Our booking was last minute. Faith responded quickly to our inquiries and arranged for a meet-and-greet. She was flexible with drop-off/pick-up arrangements and conscientious with special care instructions. She is a wonderful sitter, our puppy enjoyed his stay with her - days filled with walks, snuggles, and running sessions in the backyard. Faith made sure she update us every day on how our pet was doing, and included photos. Thank you Faith!
