Carolina was great with my dog. He’s not a great eater but she sat with him and encouraged him to eat. Provided plenty of updates and pictures.

Karen was amazing with my dog Nico. She sent lots of updates and pictures and took such wonderful care of him. She treated Nico like her own dog, and it was clear from the beginning that he was in great hands. Highly recommend!

Eva was great. She sent multiple pictures, walked her numerous times and Ellie was more comfortable with Eva that she was asking for b(Ellie) rubs :) I'd recommend Eva to all my friends who have dogs.

Our pup was in great care with Elisa and her family for a week while my family and I traveled. Elisa provided updates showcasing our pet’s happiness, comfort, and playfulness in her home. After sharing that our dog has congenital knee issues, Rob, her partner, even installed another step on their dog ramp for our dog to climb up comfortably. We hope to rebook with Elisa again when needed!

Wonderful, caring, considerate, and responsible family boarded our two pomskies. Responsive and communicative - sent pictures and updates. Dogs got walked and played with. Medicine was successfully administered. Generous and flexible- dogs were able to stay a few extra days to accommodate some changes in our plans. Dogs were well taken care of, would definitely book with Matt B again.

Miranda and her family took exceptional care of my two dogs and treated them like they were a part of their family while my husband and I were away. Miranda sent me pictures and let me know how they were doing periodically which was greatly appreciated. She was also able to accept the booking with short notice and her rates were very affordable. I highly recommend Miranda if you are in need of a dog sitter and I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future! Thanks Miranda!

About: I have owned multiple dogs for the past six years, all with varying energy levels and needs. I currently have a jack russell mix, a terrier mix, and a boxer/rhodesian ridgeback mix. I am comfortable caring for all different shapes and sizes and catering to each individual personality. I currently own my own business as a professional house cleaner and may at times be away for 6-8 hours during the day. Other than that, I am available to spend lots of quality time with your pet. Safety and keeping your pet comfortable is my highest priority. Pets will be supervised when outside and always kept on leash on walks or if no fenced yard is available. I also prefer to keep with their normal schedule as much as possible, including feeding, rest time, exercise, etc.

About: Growing up with both cats and dogs, I’ve been around animals for most of my life. While I may not have formal pet care experience, I understand the responsibility and attention they require to feel comfortable and secure. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to providing the same level of care and respect that I would expect for my own pets. Whether it’s keeping an energetic dog engaged or ensuring a senior pet is comfortable, I strive to create a safe and positive experience while you’re away. With a busy work schedule, I dedicate one to two days a week to pet sitting, ensuring I can provide attentive and reliable care. By limiting my availability, I’m able to focus fully on each pet, giving them the time and attention they deserve. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable experience while keeping pet owners updated and informed. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment in every pet care experience. Whether providing care in my home or during walks, I ensure pets are in a secure, stress-free setting. I follow any specific instructions from owners, maintain a clean and pet-friendly space, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior. My goal is to create a positive and safe experience, giving owners peace of mind while their pets are in my care.

We accidentally booked a no pets hotel once and needed a pet sitter asap and Ansley took our dog in extremely last minute! He was so loved that we took him AND our cat back. Ansley goes above and beyond for our fam and fur babies! We drive out of state now just to take them to her 🥰

My husband & I needed a much needed mini vacation. A friend suggested Rover & we met with Sabina before our trip. We knew right away that she was going to give the nurturing we were looking for. She sent daily pictures and reassured us all was well. She is the perfect care taker for your pet & we highly recommend her!

I cannot say enough good things about Karen. She took care of my dog for 5 nights in her home and he was thrilled to have someone to snuggle and play with. Outings to Harkness Park and other parks in the area and snuggles after a busy day. Karen kept me updated on what they were doing and sent pictures and videos to show me my bubbies was okay. So happy to find such a kind person to watch Rangie. I will definitely use Karen again! We even got a goodie bag when I picked him up with fancy dog treats! Thank you Karen!
