Bella had a great time at Jamie's, running in her nice grassy backyard. I really appreciate that Jamie was able to watch Bella while we went to the beach, and was very flexible about the drop off and pickup. And cute photos and videos are great!

Karma was so excited to arrive at Mary and Aaron’s house! He remembered it from our meet and greet months earlier and couldn’t wait to get in the yard to play. He had a great day and came home exhausted and happy! We will definitely be bringing him there again.

Everything went very well with Michael. We were able to do a meet and greet the day before. Buzz is so afraid of other dogs but once he’s around them, he tolerates other dogs but it takes days for him to relax. Buzz actually stayed on the couch all day because he was afraid. Michael was very kind, accommodating and made my husband and I feel Buzz would be just fine. And he was. I can’t say enough kind words about Michael. One visit and you’d know just how comfortable and confident I was leaving my pup with him.

About: I am a dog mom of 2 awesome dogs. I had a dog that passed away last year who was paralyzed and had required special care for 7 years until she passed away at 13 years old. My pets are my family and I would treat your fur babies the same way. I also have 2 cats who are equally awesome. I am 59 and have had many kinds of breeds in my life that have required special types of care. I have been doing pet care for many years and it’s undoubtedly the most enjoyable job because I get to visit and play with your animals. What can be better than that! I am very responsible and most importantly reliable. Let me lighten your load and give you peace knowing your animals are in good hands. I am retired so I do not have a set schedule so I am available at any time you need. I have a lot of free time and can work around my home schedule easily I would follow whatever instructions you give, respect your home and animals and I am a very responsible pet owner. I would most definitely spend quality time with your pet. Pet care is my only job. I have been doing it for years so I have a super flexible schedule . I am available 7 days a week if my schedule permits . My pets are part of our family and are pretty spoiled. There are 3 people at home and my husband and I both work from home so they get a lot of attention . If I come to your home, I will respect your home, your animals, and I would treat your pet as if they were my own.

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with plenty of experience caring for family pets and neighbors' dogs, often stepping in as a trusted pet sitter when they’re away. Over the years, I’ve learned how to handle different breeds and temperaments with patience and care, always making sure each dog feels comfortable and safe in my home. I also have a well-trained dog of my own, who’s friendly and well-behaved, however, when I watch other dogs, they’ll have the house to themselves on occasion, (as he frequently spends time visiting his grandma!), giving them space to relax without the stress of interacting with a new animal. My goal is always to provide a calm, loving environment where your dog feels right at home. I’m currently working freelance and have the flexibility to watch your pet as needed during the week and weekend. With advanced notice, I am able to provide boarding/overnight services. My home offers a clean, open floor plan with plenty of space for your dog to relax and explore comfortably. There’s an enclosed outdoor patio for fresh air and sun, along with two large dog beds topped with clean sheets to help your pup feel right at home. I also provide natural treats as a little extra touch to keep them happy and satisfied. When your pet is staying with me, they’ll be my top priority. I’m committed to giving them my full attention, care, and affection during their visit.

About: My wife and I share a love of dogs and have raised many throughout our lives. We will provide a safe and loving environment for your pet. We offer personalized care that meets the needs of your dog, making our home, their home, away from home. We have experience administering medications, caring for senior dogs, taking dogs for walks and have a fenced in yard for active pups. We are recently retired and currently do not have a dog. We have no children living at home, although we have an active home with many dog loving grandchildren that visit and since they all have their own dogs, will love playing with yours. We are currently retired and have time to dedicate to your pet. We enjoy being outside and would love to spend time with your dog by either walks, playing in the yard or visiting the park. Our home is pet friendly, allowing your dog to roam freely. We have a fenced in yard for play and a deck that dogs enjoy sunning themselves on. Going for a walk, taking time to understand your dogs needs and just spending time with your dog is our priority.

Robin accepted a last minute request for my dog Buddy. I was able to drop him off with bed, food. Her dog is older too like mine so I felt good about it being a good match for energy and play. She sent me pick during day. I picked him up and he was resting. Thanks Robin and buddy for helping me leave for 1/2 day to be with family.

About: I've had a love for dogs for as long as I can remember. In college, I fostered over 10 dogs and cats before they found their forever home. Recently, I raised and trained a dog of my own which taught me all the necessities of being a great dog mom:) My sweet Luna is a five-year-old border collie filled with lots of love for new people and furry friends. I am super eager to help whoever may need it! I'm working a remote job so my schedule is super flexible! I am able to take my breaks whenever I want and can most likely adhere to your schedule. I have the means of transportation to go to clients' homes as well as bring them to my pet-friendly apartment. I live by multiple parks within a 5-minute walk so I am able to spend lots of time outside. My number one priority is making you and your furry friend as happy as possible.

About: I have had/ taken care of pets my whole life. I have two small children and I want to show them the joy and love of having a pet in the house while they are still young, but our travel schedule makes a full time fur baby difficult right now. So can we borrow yours? I recently lost my 13 year old diabetic cat that was insulin dependent so I am comfortable administering medications. I am home all day. I work very part time from home and my children (2 and 4) are present in the home with my constant supervision. I have time to walk and love and get to know your pet. Although I do not have a fence at the moment, I am very comfortable walking a dog on the leash or taking them for a run at the local park. I have small children so safety measures have been met in our home. I ask that your pet be calm enough to deal with the little ones.

About: I have experience training and caring for dogs and cats. I Specialize in dogs with hearing issues/ deafness. Both of my dogs are graduates of multiple behavioral and obedience classes resulting in our therapy certifications. We visit a multitude of schools, hospitals and other wellness centers. All volunteer work done by my companions and myself is strictly a passion and non profit. I was inspired by a visitation to my grandfather by a golden retriever, when my grandfather was in the hospital for open heart surgery. Seeing my grandfathers reaction to a dog visitation while he was in the hospital was a monumental moment for me that further inspired my passion and drive to work with dogs. I currently work early mornings for a government agency as an officer which gives me a lot of available free time at off times of the day and week. Making me readily available to care for your pets . A fenced yard is a must. My dogs are trained and raised to be curious and outgoing, thus a fence is needed. Although my dogs don’t need a leash, I find it’s necessary to generally have a leash attached. I allow my dogs to be curious, and put there noses where many wouldn’t generally allow. It’s important to always cover your stove switches/ burners with dog safety devices!. But ultimately I strongly believe in allowing your dogs and pets to be curious and open to learning. Dogs and cats alike are much smarter then most realize, and I believe this is there first time living as well.. and deserve the best experiences life has to offer!

Lina provided exceptional care for my baby, Viper. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in good hands. She not only tended to his basic needs but also showered him with love and attention. It was evident that she genuinely cared for his well-being and treated him as if he were her own. Throughout his stay, Lina kept me updated with photos and messages, which eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing Viper was happy and content. Additionally, her knowledge and expertise in handling dogs reassured me that Viper was receiving the best care possible. I highly recommend Lina to anyone in need of a responsible and caring pet sitter.

Erica is truly the best! My dog is not often around other dogs so I wasn’t sure how he’d assimilate. She took the time and effort to introduce him to the group and make the transition as easy as possible on him. When he was nervous she kept him by her side to comfort him. She kept in touch with me all day- sending updates and photos to show me how he is doing. I HIGHLY recommend her as she is so loving and caring to the animals. I can tell Buffet feels at home with her and we will be a regular clients of hers! She is the best!!!

About: I love dogs and they love me! I've raised two seeing-eye dogs and have sit and cared for dogs for years. My client's humans tell me their dogs start squealing with excitement as soon as they turn on to my street. Your dog will feel at home with our family, and will not be lonely. Walks, outside play in my fenced yard with my two dogs as well as lots of petting await your dog. I will send you texts and pics each day if you would like, and while it says no dogs on my furniture in my bio, I have relented and they can watch TV on the couch with us. If you'd like to see pics of us with our dog friends that come to stay over I'd be happy to share. Even though my two are small (Corgis) I have a heart for big dogs and prefer them. Hope to talk to you soon!

Sophia was wonderful to communicate with — super responsive and easy to coordinate booking. Throughout the day, she sent sweet photo updates of Nino, which really put my mind at ease. When I picked him up, he was so calm and happy — it was clear he felt safe and loved in her care. I would recommend Sophia to anyone looking for someone kind and trustworthy to care for their dogs!
