We even got a goodie bag with a new toy when I picked her up. I will not hesitate to use Qiana again!”

About: I have experience with a wide range of pets! Medication, grooming, and basic care all in one person who actively communicates to ensure your satisfaction and care of your family member. I was a dog/cat groomer for 6 years and worked at a doggie daycare for 4 years, working with a wide range of breeds and personalities has helped me accurately read pets and their needs. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and small pets. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine—it’s something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it’s morning feedings, litter box cleaning, grooming, or quiet cuddle time, I schedule each task with care and consistency. I make sure every pet gets the attention and comfort they need, and I adjust my routine around their habits and preferences. For me, caring for pets isn’t a task—it’s a meaningful part of my day. I am available around the clock so just let me know when you need me! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I create a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where they feel safe and loved. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, playtime, grooming, and any medication needs—so they experience as little stress as possible. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly space with plenty of enrichment and supervision. When visiting a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure their pet receives attentive, personalized care just as they would if you were there.
“Georgina was amazing with my princess. I always get nervous when leaving her with other dogs and people because she can be very jumpy and anxious but she did so well with her and anything that came up but she keep me updated she was able to help her with food and calm her anxiety’s I will for sure return!”
“Michele took great care of my anxious dog while I was traveling for work. She sent updates and photos often, so I never had to worry. I would board with Michele again.”
“Nina had a great time! This was her first time with Ann so I was a little bit nervous, but Ann and her husband were awesome! I got lots of videos seeing what Nina was up to and she got to do lots of enrichment activities while she was with them. It felt like they were clearly very passionate about dogs and now that Nina’s home, she’s super tired so I can tell she had a great time. Felt like we had plenty of communication throughout the visit.”
“They were so accommodating on such short notice. Gave Bodie the quiet space she needed on the final leg of her spay recovery. Received many updates along with photos. I don't think she wanted to leave when it was time to pick her up. Wonderful people and will definitely keep Marie & James in mind for next time. <3”

Tammi watched our high energy 7 year old Australian Shepherd and was amazing! She was so communicative, easy to work with and flexible on pick up time when we hit some traffic coming back. Ollie loved staying with her and came home a very happy dog. We will definitely be asking Tammi to watch him again in the future!
Celia was an absolutely wonderful sitter. She was incredibly considerate and it was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about our dogs. She treated them like her own, paid close attention to their needs, and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups, which says everything. We would happily book Celia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter.
My flight from vacation was delayed, and Vivi was very flexible with adding an extra day. Vivi sent me at least 2 pictures a day. Vivi would also tell me about the bumps on Ziggy’s chest and her red eyes, which I already know but forgot to tell her. I appreciate that she pays attention to my dog’s wellbeing. Thank you Vivi. I would gladly leave Ziggy with you again
Hans is a great find! He was a wonderful sitter and very accommodating when we needed to get to the airport early, and even dropped our dog off at the house before we came home from the trip. He sent us updates daily with photos. I do appreciate his communication and attentiveness to our dogs needs. I will be using him again in the future. Since we got home, our dog now expects longer walks twice a day because of Hans. It was almost as if our dog was on vacation too. ha
Walter loved Austin and his pups! They were able to play together outside and I know Walt got a lot of extra fun and stimulation from having playful dogs around. Austin was great -- communicated really well, took great care of Walter and obviously loves dogs so much. We'd absolutely book them again :)
This was Cady’s first stay with Kait & Derek. We had a great meet and greet and I was completely comfortable with them. They were great communicators- texting and sending photos of her visit. I wholeheartedly recommend them and will not hesitated to use them in the future. Thank you! I appreciate peace of mind when it comes Cady!!
First time using Rover and William and his wife made this experience so easy and really put my mind at ease. I received updates throughout their stay with pictures and little excerpts. My pups really seemed to enjoy spending time with William and his wife and I will definitely book with William as a sitter in the future!
