1. Marie H.


“Marie is amazing to say the least. I was recommend to her by a friend and my dog will definitely become one of her regulars. She allowed us to come over ahead of time and see her house/yard and my dog to meet some of her regular clients which I really appreciated! This was the first time I had ever left my dog with someone I didn’t really know and in an environment he’s only seen once and I was a little nervous but she assured me he would be in great hands. She texted me pictures and updates all day long and was quick to respond if I had any questions. 10/10 recommend Marie to anyone looking for a dog sitter who’s dog gets along with other dogs.”




2. Mark & Elizabeth Y.

“I had an excellent experience with Mark & Elizabeth. They showed genuine care and attention to my fur baby, providing regular updates and sending adorable pictures.

“Kaishin is fabulous! Daisy had a great time. She got a walk and was well taken care of. She sent many photos and kept me up to date the whole time. I will definitely be back!”


4. Kathleen T.

“So good with Maple's puppy energy, her home is so dog-friendly with an amazing back yard for safe wandering and playing. So grateful my puppy can have a great time with her new friends at Kathy's home while I am working!”


5. Tom G.

“Tom and Allie watched my grand-dog last fall and took wonderful care of her, so I knew they would be excellent with my new pup. Last week, Allie hosted him for an afternoon play date with her two dogs, and he had a great time playing with them in her backyard. Allie is very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and she knows how to make a smooth transition when dropping a dog off into her care. She understood that my dog can be shy with humans, and consequently, she was gentle with him and got on the floor to engage him with play. Her bigger dog, Chief, was an excellent role model for my pup which gave him confidence to be on his own without me. I plan to take him back for a couple more play dates to get him comfortable for a longer vacay in the future.”


6. Taylor R.
“Taylor has had all kinds of pets (horses, dogs, cats, birds & reptiles) her whole life. She is a very patient and caring person and very responsible. Animals also love Taylor!”

8. Mary N.
“I have been entrusting Mary with the care of my dog for the past few years, and I couldn't be happier with her service. With over 15 years of experience, Mary truly understands dogs and their individual needs. Whether it's a quick walk or a longer adventure, I know my dog is in the best hands. Not only is Mary reliable and professional, but she also has a deep connection with the dogs she cares for. My dog absolutely loves their walks with Mary, coming home happy and well-exercised every time! It's clear that Mary has a genuine love for animals, and it shines through in the way she handles each dog with care and patience. Her extensive experience really shows whether dealing with various breeds, temperaments, or weather conditions, Mary is always prepared and knowledgeable. If you're looking for someone you can trust to take the best care of your furry friend, I highly recommend Mary. She's simply the best!”

About: I've grown up with fuzzies and cared for them all. Tended and loved bunnies both big and small, pups young and old, cats timid and bold. Regardless of pet, I will treat 'em like gold. Loved on and spoiled they'll be sorry to go, I'll keep them quite cozy and you in the know. Caring for fur-babies requires love, understanding, and flexibility. Each pet comes with her own needs and personality. With four dogs (Diamond, Patrick, Trish, and Dusty) and four cats (Joel, Hibbleton, Joe, and Dom) in my care, I've had a little bit of practice in nourishing each individual purr-sonality. Once we get the schedules sorted, I'll be sure to give your loved one the same consideration and I think we'll get along just fine. That being said, I kindly ask that you be mindful of my time. When I reply to your initial message, I typically wait 4-24 hours for a response. If I don’t hear back within that window, I may archive the request. If you send me a booking request but aren't sure of the exact dates and times, I can hold your request for 4-48 hours while you confirm the details. If the issue is not resolved within that time frame, the request may be archived. Hello, and thank you for meeting me here! If I'm at your house, your fur-baby will be let out every 4-8 hours unless otherwise needed. At least one daily walk is guaranteed (weather permitting) so your little one can catch up on all the neighborhood gossip; if there's a dog park nearby, I'll take him to meet up with his friends. If you'll provide me with your dog's dietary needs, medications, and routines; I'll do my best to make sure that he's feelin' just as fly as he would be if you were there. Now if your pup chooses to stay at my lovely establishment, I do have a questionnaire for all clients to ensure that every aspect of your pup’s care is covered. Among other things, I ask about your pup’s needs, medications, vaccinations, preferences, and routines. After the business part is sorted, I have for your pupper two yards; one for business, one for fun. My house has two floors; the first floor is all his. The rules are pretty chill. Pets are allowed on the furniture, food and water are freely available, tricks are rewarded with treats, and if he's a well-behaved gentle-pup, bedtime is kennel-free. However, if you have different boundaries set for your pet I'll be happy to ensure that your little one minds his manners during his stay. Oh, one more thing: I am the tug-o-war champion, though your dog is welcome to try and take my title.

“Nick has been walking my dog for a few years now. He gets along with him great and treats him like he is his own pet.”

“Was extremely helpful with our last minute plans! Sent plenty of pictures and updates. We were scared to use this app at first but she changed our minds! Would use again!”


13. Carrie Haring K.

“Wonderful family! Definitely knew my pup was in great hands!”


14. Hanna S.

“Hannah was great w/ my boys. She played w/ them and took them for a good walk and even sent me pics. They had room and freedom to roam the house freely and room to play catch for my shepherd, which was very important! Lol I have 2 big boys that are well behaved but can be intimidating for some ppl just d/t their size, Hannah showed no fear! Thank you for a great day!!”


15. Tyler F.

“Okay, so, I never leave my dog with a sitter. Normally, I am the sitter. But life gets hectic, holidays happen, and I needed to drop my fur baby off somewhere safe. She means the whole world to me and I was petrified of leaving her with a stranger but my gut told me she'd be fine. My gut was right! Nibbler seems very content, and Tyler updated me about her regularly while she stayed with him. She and I are happy as clams. I would definitely recommend him to take care of your four-legged friends and family!”


16. Delaina M.

“Lai was so good with my Panda! I can tell she's a good person. He went straight to her and didn't even look back at me like he usually does when I drop him off at other sitters! 🥹 and he also wasn't super anxious when I picked him up. That's when I knew he was in good hands. I will surely book Lai again! 🥰 thank you for taking care of my Panda.”


17. Emily V.
“Emily has cared for my pets on several occasions. We have a large Golden Doodle and two cats. She takes our dog on walks and feeds him according to our instructions. She is very loving with all of our pets and when she spends the night, she allows our dog to sleep with her. He sleeps with us so we are fine with this. She is very responsible and spends a lot of quality time with our pets. I have recommended her to several friends and she has watched their pets on numerous occasions when they are on vacation or out of town. She sends photos and videos several times so we don't miss them as much and it gives us peace of mind while we are away. I highly recommend Emily as a pet caregiver.”
