“Alisha has been my regular sitter for about 2 months now & I feel very lucky to have found her! My dog, Cooper, is treated like part of the family & is always worn out when he gets home. I feel confident that he is safe & I still get consistent updates on what they’re up to all day. She is one of the best you could find!”

“Basil came home tired and worn out. I think she had a good time staying at Heather's with her man, and the kids! Would recommend her! Shes punctual with replying back, very informative, and fairly prices, and she accommodated basil with her special need.”

“Michael was quick to respond to my message when I sent a last-minute request for doggy daycare when our original plans fell through. Tina is our first puppy so I’ve been very hesitant with leaving her with strangers but he sent me multiple videos and updates throughout the day, letting me know how she was doing which made me very comfortable. He was able to accommodate a slightly later pick up time which I appreciated. She came back exercised and tired out which is everything I could want! We will definitely be using his daycare services again.”

“We love Wendy. My only regret is that I didn't find her sooner. We've moved too far away now, but she was so great to help us with last minute doggy daycare when we had a day of house showings before our move. We will miss her. She pampers the pets that stay with her. It's obvious that they become part of her extended family. You will not regret booking Wendy, I promise.”

“I was in town for the Billy Joel concert, and Cassandra and her family were the best dogsitters for my girls' night out! Vinny felt completely safe and at home with them, evidenced by his rambunctiousness when I picked him up. (He's usually quiet and cautious in new places, unlike how he is at home.) She was accomodating with the time, and I'm so grateful! She's definitely my first choice when I'm in town!”


“Anthony was great watching my dog. Very responsible and caring. I can tell Finnegan got plenty of play time by the photos and videos. Would not think twice about letting Finnegan stay there again. Awesome!”

About: A couple of months after we married my husband adopted our first dog, Sandy, and I’ve been hooked ever since. That was 26 years ago. Both of my sons are adults now so I have free time to focus my attention on your baby. Your baby will have my undivided attention. My property is fenced and I will accompany your baby outdoors. We can play fetch or simply keep each other company. I will do what it takes to make your baby comfortable and happy.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 18. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets! I’m a stay at home mama to my amazing kids and two dogs! We have a fenced in yard that they love to play around in and we enjoy walks everyday it’s nice out! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company! I’m very accommodating if your dog needs extra love! I am always home so they won’t ever be left alone for long periods of time.
“I dropped my puppy off for a daycare for the first time! Tara was very nice and she sent me photos and progress reports regularly throughout that day! Will definitely be using her again ?”


“Awesome meet n greet! Baxter had a good time at Daycare & Jeannine kept us up to date with pics and info! I’m sure Baxter is looking forward to his extended stay!:)”

“Melissa was amazing. Jake and I received an amazingly warm welcome when dropping off. My dog has anxiety issues and Melissa and her crew were wonderful. They took Jake on walks, took him to the park and he was so happy. Truly one of the best experiences Jake and I have had. So incredibly wonderful.”

“Valerie and her son were absolutely incredible!! We made the request last minute and she was able to accommodate us which was so sweet. She’s great with communication and flexible as well. Most importantly, she kept in touch with us throughout the day, kept Wilson active and playful, and gave us a very detailed report at the end of the day. We are so lucky we found Valerie, would highly recommend!!”

About: Hello, I have owned dogs for over 20 years and I am a dog lover. Currently, I work from home and have no pets. if you are looking for someone who is trustworthy, flexible and professional, then I am the right person for you! I am excited to get to know you and your fur babies! I am bilingual (English and Spanish) overlap if there is a need. I work from home Monday through Friday. Your pet would be with me at home throughout the day, and as I take frequent breaks, I can take them out to walk when needed in general when they are with me, they would be walked twice a day. Dogs will be inside the house. I always make sure that my home is very clean and any potential hazards to the pets are removed. Safety is my first priority when it comes to taking care of your pet.
About: I am a retired teacher with a lot of experience in pet care. I had 2 medium sized dogs and have cared for dogs of family members. I am a recently retired teacher with a ton of free time. I have reliable transportation and a welcoming, clean home. I have a lot of availability. I have a fenced in yard with lots of space to roam. I live in a small, quiet neighborhood. I enjoy taking daily walks and would love company on those walks.
“My pup Oriyah had an amazing time with Arti and Ashwin! They made her feel so comfortable and cared for, which means a lot to us. We received frequent updates on Oriyah’s schedule and whereabouts. She absolutely loved the toy they gave her—it was such a thoughtful touch. Thank you for your kindness and attention. We’ll definitely be using your services again. Highly recommended!”

“This was my dog's first day at dog day care and it was only for a couple hours just to try it out. But everything went very well. Chang updated me with pictures shortly after dropping my dog off to assure me he was doing well. When I picked him up he was happy to see me but also seemed like he would have followed Chang back to her house if she wanted him to. So that was very comforting to see that he liked her. I will be a repeat customer.”

“Adrienne took wonderful care of Finn! She sent plenty of photo updates, and he clearly had a great time with her pups. Would be happy to have her watch Finn again, and I know Finn would love that, too!”

About: I am a single mom with 20 year old daughter who is away at college. I have a golden retriever who loves to have dog friends visit. Your pet will get the same TLC as my own dog. They will be a part of our family while they are with us. I have a fenced in yard, making it easy for your pet to be safe and get some exercise too. I have been watching dogs in my home for about 25 years. I work from home Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and I am gone on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from about 10-4, so I am almost always home aside from the occasional errands. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, I can always run home in the middle of the day if a potty break is needed. Accidents are ok too. Mine has had a few over the years. Your dog will never be in trouble if this happens. You won’t have to worry about your dogs when they are with me. They will be treated like family. I work from home, so your pets will rarely be left alone. When they are, it is just for brief periods for when I running errands. I have a fenced in yard and w very friendly fur baby of my own. I can let them out frequently and always supervise outside even though my yard is fenced. I am able to feed them if they are here during meal time. I will just need to know if your dog is food possessive so I can make sure they eat separately from my dog. Unfortunately I can’t leave your dogs food down throughout the day because my dog will eat it.
