Marissa took amazing care of Duncan, he came home happy and super tired which tells me he had plenty of fun and enjoyment in her care. She communicated with us his whole stay. Will definitely book with Marissa again.

Incredible! Another great day for Pablo with Joseph. Lots of photos, great care and plenty of outdoor play time. It’s more like a vacation for Pablo only if he could express😊 thanks Joseph!

Cindy was an amazing sitter! My dog had a sore paw when I dropped her off, and she took such great care of her. It was clear my dog was comfortable and well looked after. When I picked her up, she was happy and relaxed. I’m really grateful for Cindy's care and would definitely recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting services!

This was my first time leaving my dog so I was nervous, but my dog warmed up to Cecilia right away! It’s a great home for dogs with plenty of space. When I picked my dog up she was tired, calm, and so happy! Great experience:)

We booked Shanisa last minute to watch our two dogs, and we couldn’t have been more thrilled. We had a meet-and-greet before, and she was clearly very kind and engaged with the dogs. She had an array of toys and harnesses and came extremely prepared. She sent us video and photo updates to put us at ease. Our dogs had a blast, and we just wish she was in every city we visited!

When I say Ms. Rita is an ALL STAR sitter, I’m talking about a true professional. I don’t even LIVE in Delaware, but I attended my brother’s wedding there, and she literally SAVED MY LIFE at the last moment, and babysat my pup BLUE at the last minute! I reached out to her at 7:30 in the morning, for an afternoon drop off, and not only did she reply almost immediately to confirm some details, she accepted the booking! Ms. Rita is just as DELIGHTFUL, WARM, KIND, PROFESSIONAL, CARING, and OVERALL AMAZING as she may appear on this profile. I have never left my dog anywhere except for his groomer, and I was PLEASANTLY shocked at how well my dog took to her and her FABULOUS dog, and the other dog that she was watching. Not only did she send me photo updates, she was so highly communicative the entire time before during and even after…. I mean…. I made my brother’s wedding, and didn’t have to worry about my dog and his accommodations (dogs weren’t showered unfortunately) because I was so grateful for and confident in the care being provided by Ms. Rita. Folks… don’t overwhelm her with bookings… but definitely look no further !!!! She is phenomenal, and I wish I lived in Delaware now just so that I can bring my fur baby here more often! I can only hope to find someone like her in NY. Thank you again!!!!! She is simply the best! I feel like she treated my dog like her very own ??? Great sitter.

Jenning is amazing! From the time I reached out she was responsive and quickly accepted my request for last minute daycare. She was so patient and kind when we arrived and took my pup out on a walk right after I left and sent a photo of him within the first 30 minutes. I think I had more seperation anxiety thamy dog. When I checked in she responded promptly, assured me he was doing great, and shared pictures from their afternoon hike. I will definitely reach out to her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take excellent care of your fur baby!

About: In my life, I had three dogs. Each one meant the world to me. I’ve loved, and took good care of them. I’ve always taken my dogs on a walk, giving them good baths and making sure that they have been fed properly. Due to personal reasons, I currently do not work. Since I have no job, I’m always available unless something comes up. With me having no car, I can only do dog sitting at my house unless I’m able to walk to your house I live in a mobile home, with just my mom and I. The house is fairly big so the dog will have room to walk and run around. I have a gate that I can use if I want to block access to a room I don’t want the dog in. Since I live in a mobile home community, there are no fences. With me owning three dogs in the past, I am fully aware on how to take care of them inside and outside. There is a rule in this development that states “ALL dogs have to be on leashes at all times and to pick up after themselves when they go to the bathroom”. I will take really good care of your dog and will call you for any emergency or questions I may have. One important thing is I cannot have a dog that sheds

About: I provide loving, personalized care for all pets. I’m experienced caring for puppies and senior pets, including giving medication and extra support. Your pet will feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I make sure to spend quality time feeding, walking, playing, and monitoring each pet’s health every day. I also keep a consistent schedule to help pets feel comfortable and secure. On a weekly basis, I update owners with reports and adjust care as needed to meet each pet’s unique needs. At my home, where I live in an apartment with my friendly dog, I create a safe, clean, and comfortable space for pets to relax and play. I stick to their regular routines for feeding, exercise, and rest to keep them happy and stress-free. For clients’ homes, I follow instructions closely, maintaining their pet’s usual schedule and environment to minimize disruption. In both settings, I provide lots of attention, affection, and monitor their health to ensure they’re feeling their best.

About: Hello! My name is Sherry, and I've been caring for pets for over 13 years. I love being a full time dog mom where I get to provide reliable and personalized care for every furry friend I meet. I have one mini doxie, Mocha. She is the star host of our family. What sets me apart: I use positive reinforcement and create a fear-free, stress-free environment. Experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I prioritize safety and comfort. During your pup's stay, you will receive regular photo and video updates so you wouldn't miss out the tail wags and happy moments in real time. With experience feeding raw/ cooked/ freeze-dried/ air-dried/ kibble meals, your pup can enjoy their routine meals with fresh homemade treats on top. For now, I am only hosting pets from one household at a time, so each of them can spend quality time during their sleepover. Pick up and drop off option is available for a small fee. First time customer enjoy $20 off for the first stay, let's get in touch! As a full time dog mom, I am home most of the time. I always bring the pups everywhere with me. We go on hiking trip and stop by Starbucks for pup cups once a week, and the pups have 2-4 on leash walkies per day. We always welcome a meet and greet before booking. There is a large quiet lawn right by our home where we can meet in a neutral setting, talk through your dog's needs and routine, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. Feel free to reach out and schedule one!

Anna is amazing! The test of whether my dog is well is taken care of is how he acts when I bring him back after the first day. After one day with Anna he pulled me all the way from the road to her door, impatiently anticipated her opening the door, and then flew inside to greet her like he does our closest family and friends. In addition, she is a genuinely kind person who is helpful and flexible. Don’t hesitate to book with her! Your pup will be in the best of hands with Anna! 💕

Amy and Cathy were very good with my old man Sidney, who is a sort of anxious beagle mix. They indulged me with a second meet and greet before his first stay. Apparently he didn't miss me as much as I thought he would! He did well and we will definitely be going back. Thanks so much!

About: Hi there! 👋 I'm Sarah, and I'm passionate about providing top-notch care for your beloved pets. As a responsible and experienced pet owner, dog walker, and pet sitter with over 10 years of experience, I understand the unique needs of every animal. My background includes several years working at a veterinary clinic, giving me valuable insight into animal health and well-being. I've even volunteered alongside veterinarians in rural Southeast Asia, assisting with vaccination drives for stray dogs and offering free veterinary care to families. You can trust that your furry friends are in loving and capable hands with me. I'm dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and enriching experience for your pets, whether it's a brisk walk, a cozy overnight stay, or just some extra playtime. Contact me today to discuss your pet's needs! I offer a range of personalized pet services: whether you're at work, on vacation, or just need an extra hand, I'm here to help! I'm committed to providing compassionate and professional care for your beloved companions. Contact me today to discuss your pet's specific needs and create a customized care plan🫶 As a full-time pet care professional (and former vet tech!), pet care isn’t just part of my routine—it is my routine. I share my home with two friendly, well-socialized small dogs and specialize in creating a calm, loving environment for both small dogs and gentle giants. I have extensive experience with senior pets, dogs with special needs, and pups who just need a little extra TLC. I work from home and structure my days around the animals in my care, with walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and lots of cozy couch cuddles. I’m rarely away for more than 3–4 hours, so your dog will have a steady, comforting presence and personalized attention all day long. Whether they’re energetic or easygoing, your pup will feel safe, cared for, and right at home here. In my home, pets are truly treated like family. I usually only care for one (and no more than three) visiting dogs at a time, in addition to my own friendly resident pups, so each guest gets plenty of individualized attention. Every dog has their own cozy private space for naps, meals, and downtime, and a large shared area for safe, supervised play if they enjoy socializing. I remove toys during group play to prevent guarding issues and ensure calm, respectful interactions. Dogs are walked three times a day and also have supervised leashed or tethered access to my private yard for fresh air, sniffing, and sunshine. When the weather is nice, we love lounging on the porch or stretching out on a blanket in the grass together. Whether they’re here for boarding or daycare, your dog will enjoy a calm, structured, and loving environment where their needs and comfort come first. When caring for pets in their own homes, I aim to maintain their usual routines and comforts as closely as possible. I provide regular walks, feeding, medication if needed, and lots of companionship so your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. My experience as a former vet tech gives me confidence in caring for seniors, special needs pets, and administering medications safely and gently.

Cindi is an excellent caregiver of dogs. Chico and I both immediately felt welcome and calm in her home. Chico played heartily all day but also rested as needed. Cindi‘s positive attitude and affection with Chico were exemplary. Highly recommended, and I will definitely use her again.
