“Suzanne took such great care of our pup and was a pleasure to work with! She really made us feel like our dog was safe and happy and gave us great peace of mind while we were away.”


“Laura was so wonderful! She made our family and our pup so comfortable and sent pictures and updates throughout our trip. We were so happy knowing that our dog got to be part of Laura’s family while we were away. We’d highly recommend Laura!”


“Brittany was so great about communicating and sending pictures of all the fun activities she did with our lab! She is very hands on and excellent with making our pup feel right at home. We will definitely use again :)”


“Coy was fabulous! He came and picked our honey girl up, who can be very theatrical lol. He had treats ready and was very knowlegable about gaining her trust and was able to provide us with tools to help calm her anxiety. He had honey out running around with other dogs, playing non stop, and sent us videos of her. She was tuckered out when we got her back! We will only be booking with coy!”


“Chelsea did us a huge solid during our wedding weekend by watching our dog Delilah for the weekend, bringing her for a grooming Saturday morning, and then bringing her to our ceremony so that she could walk down the aisle. She is communicative, flexible, and so great with dogs. Chelsea was super excited to be escorting Delilah to the wedding and made her feel calm during an otherwise overwhelming day. 10000% would book her again!”


“I was extremely nervous leaving our 1 year old with someone other than my family as she hasn't left us since we adopted last July. However, my fears were calmed leaving Demi with Nuno. My husband had a great meet and greet and then she stayed with Nuno for a couple nights. Nuno has a wonderful friendly dog, Bisca, and a large yard for the dogs to play. He also has children who showered Demi with love also. ❤️ Great communication while he watched her and I'm already booking him again for our next weekend away!”


About: "The happiest days are filled with wagging tails! Every furry guest is treated like a member of the family. Expect endless playtime, cozy snuggles, and detailed updates (including adorable photos!) throughout your pet's stay." I am self employed, work when I want and as much as I want all depending on my pups & your pups happiness & needs! I have a large home that is easily sectioned or gated, a large fenced yard and a quiet neighborhood close to the beach for walks


“Mary Jo was absolutely wonderful! We had never left our puppy before and we were a little concerned but truly had nothing to worry about. We absolutely will use Mary Jo again in the future!”


About: I have loved and cared for all kinds of animals since I was young. Having every animal from cats to dogs, birds and guinea pigs, hamsters, snakes, lizards, turtles, and birds! I have experience training dogs as well as training service dogs. I can care for animals from birth to their senior years. I can safely bathe animals, feed, administer medication, and give souch love to them! I have a very flexible routine that allows me to accommodate the needs of many pet parents! I can make adjustments as needed and am happy to spend time with your loved four legged friend! I keep a clean, safe space for the animals I visit with. Unless otherwise noted, I keep a variety of treats and toys on hand and keep a large gravity water bowl available at all times.

“Stacey sent my photos all day of my Grover running with his new friends. She was mindful of each dogs temperament and integrated Grover slowly so to not overwhelm him. He was so happy having a fenced yard to play like a dog in. I'll definitely rebook soon. Thank you Stacey”


“Lucy was wonderful with our little pug! She sent plenty of updates and photos and I always felt comfortable knowing my dog was safe and well. Her house is nicely set up for dog sitting and as a foster dog mom she definitely has a way with the furry friends. I would highly recommend Lucy!”


About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and I pet sit for my friends all the time. I'm a big animal-lover, which is why I enjoy pet-sitting. You won't need to worry about your pet while you're away - as your pet-sitter, you can rest assured that your pet is being cared for with the same level of care I give to my own. I'm a PhD student and most of my work is reading. That's something I can do anywhere, which makes me available for pet-sitting at any time of day or night. Dog-owners: If you would like me to dog-sit at my home, your dog will have access to a large park and dog park both only a couple blocks away. You can request a relaxing, long walk over green grass and/or quality-play time with other dogs. Take advantage of these hard-to-find perks in this bustling city of ours. Cat-owners: If you would like me to cat-sit at my home, you can expect a calm, quite space with plenty of cat-friendly bookshelves for your cat to turn into their own jungle in the city.

“We were very happy with Sophie’s time with Joe, Kelly, and their sweet young son. We arranged a quick visit ahead of time for Sophie to meet them and to see their home and space. They communicated effectively and sent pics during our vacation. We will definitely use them again, should we need care for Sophie.”


About: Dogs are truly my one passion. I'd love to help you and yours however I can! Growing up I've always had a variety of animals, but right now I have two dogs. Jojo (11yrs) and Libby (4yrs). They are everything to me and it gives me great pleasure to provide for them, ensuring their happiness and well being. I have experience with dogs of all ages, and pets of all kinds! I am a Certified Professional Animal Care Provider (CPACP) through PACCC. You can view my badge at - bcert.me/sizlosuuu ! Giving the highest quality care to your pups is my top priority. I have 8+ years experience in pet care, including 6 years Doggy Daycare Management and Puppy Room experience with puppies under 6 months. For a few years I was assisting in positive reinforcement dog training classes as well. I learned tips and tricks on how to gain attention with your dogs, leash walking skills, and much much more. I'm used to off leash group play (15+ dogs at a time), so dog walking and sitting full time is a bit new for me. But I am so excited to explore this new opportunity with you! I will use the skills I've acquired to ensure your dog is HAPPY and SAFE! I will love your pup just like my own. Looking forward to making memories and I can't wait to meet you all! Full time dog walking/drop ins + "almost" overnight sitting. Making early morning and late night trips to accommodate your pup. My own two dogs just need a regular check in half way through day. Communication is key. I would love to know all of your fur baby's habits and quirks so that I can adjust my routine or plan for the day. I like to do meet and greets before hand so that I can ensure all parties are comfortable and happy! Send me a message to chat with me and let me know what your needs are. I love to take pictures of our adventures together and share them with you as well!

About: I have hands on experience with both energetic puppies and senior pets who need extra attention, gentle handling, and sometimes medication. I’m confident in managing different temperaments, following routines closely, and creating a calm, safe environment, genuine love will never miss.

House with a fenced, green and shade backyard, crate in case client wants use it, different cognitive toys, and a buddy to play with will make your pet feel love as safe and sound.

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.

“Kristen & her pup, Stella were welcoming & kind to our elderly Westie. We had a lovely meet & greet, Kristen was an exceptionally responsive, clear communicator & sent us pictures of & updates about our dog’s stay. Thank you, Kristen!”


“I am very glad to have chosen Anthony as my pet sitter. He was very kind and attentive with my dog Kiwi making sure to keep me updated everyday. It was such a relief to know my dog was in good hands and I would definitely book him again.”
