“Lauren and her wife were fantastic! My pet looked so happy in every picture they send me, and when I picked her up, she was not stressed at all! They were very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and I am very thankful for how they treated my pup! If you’re looking for someone caring, reliable, and sweet to take care of your fur baby, stop and book Lauren, you won’t regret it!”

Dauphine and Mary love you so much!”

“Sawsan was an amazing dog sitter/boarder for our pup! We were really happy with her being able to take our pup to the dog park nearby every day and interact with other dogs including Sawsan’s own sweet dog. Sawsan not only provides us with constant updates with pictures and videos but also was able to work on a few bad habits our dog still had such as jumping on people. We are very happy with our choice and would love to have Sawsan watch our pup again anytime we go out of town!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for 15 years, spent a year as a vet tech intern, and I’m a proud dog mom myself! I treat every pet like family and always make their comfort and safety my top priority. I work from home full-time. I’m around throughout the day and can easily step out for walks, drop-ins, or check-ins whenever needed. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening. I’m happy to help keep your pet happy and cared for! When I’m in a client’s home, I always respect the space and leave it just as I found it. I clean up after the pets and make sure everything is in order before I head out. I keep my own home clean and pet friendly. I bring that same care and attention into every home I visit.
“Great experience with Ade! He was super responsive and kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages throughout the stay. Leo clearly had a blast and came home happy, calm, and totally relaxed. Highly recommend!”
“If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would! Tyler is amazing! I received constant updates and pictures. He was very flexible with me and my flight times. River ripped open her favorite toy and Tyler even got a replacement. He also compiled a bunch of pictures and videos on a thumb drive for me! We did a meet and greet prior to the drop off day and Tyler asked all the important questions. I immediately felt comfortable leaving my fur baby with Tyler, and will always go to Tyler as my first go-to if available. I cannot thank him enough for taking such great care of River!”
“Tanee was great with Ruby. We met at a park to meet and great her smaller dog with our larger dog. Tanee was flexible and most importantly reliable. If and when my family and I travel again, we will most definitely use Tanee again.”
About: I'm comfortable with basic training and handling different energy levels, and giving medication when needed. i understand the unique needs of each dog whether that means extra potty brecks for a puppy, slow paced walks for a senior, or just some quiet companionship for anxious puppies pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something i genuinely enjoy. I structure my day around the pets i care for in my home, i provide a calm, clean, and pet friendly space where animals can feel safe and relaxed. i stick closely to their regular routines feeding schedules, walks, medications, and preferred sleeping spots so they feel comfortable and secure.
“This is the second time Bobbi has watched our pup, Riley. Both times, Bobbi had great communication and I knew Riley was well taken care of and was having a great time.”
