“Queeny took excellent care of our pup! She shared pictures and videos every day to keep us updated how he was doing. Her communication was excellent, very responsive, and she was flexible when we encountered a delay in our travel plans that impacted our scheduled pick-up time. We will definitely have Queeny watch our pup again the next time we take a vacation!”


“Steven has cared for my dog twice now and my dog has come back home well cared for and happy. Steven is accommodating and communicates well. Due to delays in our trip he kept our dog for longer and helped us. Thanks”


“Jess was great! I was really worried about having a sitter for my two dogs but she took care of them like they were princesses! Very nice, caring and kind. She even put up with me acting like I was taking my kids to their first day of kindergarten crying like a baby. Thank you Jess and I look forward to working with you again.”


“I am so grateful to Lasya and Seshu for being such wonderful hosts to my beloved Sage. They went above and beyond to accommodate my last-minute booking during a family emergency, which truly meant a lot to me. Sage had an incredible time with Lasya, Seshu, and their adorable dog, Simba. It warmed my heart to see how well Sage and Simba bonded, bringing joy to each other throughout the stay. I can’t recommend Lasya and Seshu highly enough, they genuinely are the best. You can rest assured that your furry friend will be treated with the utmost love, care, and respect in their hands.”


“Allesha took great care of my dog. Her house and yard are lovely and she sent me many updates and took care to get my finnicky dog to eat. Allesha's dogs are very friendly and playful, but she is perceptive of body language and sets up gates in the house if one dog needs a break. She was also flexible with our vacation plans when they changed. I recommend her!”


“Shivadarshini was great to work with! When I reached out to her about Biscuit staying over while we were away, she offered Biscuit and I stop to by for a quick visit ahead of time to make sure we were both comfortable with her staying for a week. Biscuit had a great time playing with her dogs as well. She sent outfits twice a day which was so sweet and kind of her to think about doing. She met any need or requirement I asked for. Biscuit will be visiting again next time we are out of town.”


“Our Arthur had a great time. Natalia sent is updates and photos during his stay. It was great, he was so tired when he got home. I will 100% use her services again and I would recommend her to anyone. Arthur was in great hands and company.”


“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”


“I absolutely loved Donna! My dogs loved her too. She took great care of them, even giving them their medications without any problem. She kept me updated with pictures and messages every day, which made me feel at ease while I was away. I could tell my dogs were very comfortable and happy with her. You can really see that she loves animals and treats them like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible pet sitter!”


“I would trust leaving my dog here any time. He was loved and cared for by this amazing couple like he was their own. This was my first time trusting anyone with my dog and the experience exceeded my expectations in every way. Received daily pictures and updates, was able to enjoy vacation worry free. Highly recommended!”


“Nia was absolutely amazing. She took wonderful care of my pup. She kept me updated on his well-being the entire time I was away. I'm soo grateful to have found someone to care for my pup who is so loving, kind and professional. I will absolutely recommend and work with Nia in the future.”


“I can’t speak highly enough of Tammy. I absolutely hate leaving my precious lil’ guy anywhere but I could tell as soon as she opened the door that I had found the right pet sitter. She was communicative, friendly, and very involved in making sure Jordy had a great time while he was there. 10/10 would definitely recommend.”


“Frankie came home tired and that’s a sign of a good stay. We got updates and pictures during our overnight boarding and we’re very pleased. Will definitely use Whitney & Samuel in the future.”


“My doggy was so happy and comfortable with Tara— I don’t think he will want to leave! Tara provided me with constant pictures and updates throughout his stay. She even brought him to her social run club and out for coffee after! I would highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a Dogsitter and will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”


“We had an amazing experience with Sofia. She was incredible with our puppy and kind and flexible with us. A joy to work with, extremely professional, and full of love for our dog! Thank you SO much Sofia! Would 100% ask her to watch Dove again.”


“Theresa and Adrian were wonderful, we had absolute peace of mind that our dog Gemma was being well loved and taken care of. Early on Gemma had a few nights of late night barking and fussing and they went above and beyond to comfort her until she settled in. Thank you for taking such great care of Gemma. Frequent updates and great communication were very much appreciated also.”


“I recently boarded my dog, Marty, with Erika again for the 3rd time, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Erika's genuine love for dogs and her professional approach made me feel completely at ease. Marty came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared-for. Highly recommend Erika for her exceptional dog boarding services! we will be back!”


About: I’ve been a groomers assistant and bather at a grooming shop and doggie daycare for a few years in past and I have access to a dog bathing suite for $15 for the use and $25 per dog. Blow drying those furry friends coats out! :) I’ve been dog and house sitting for years and I have had a few dogs of my own. I get excited to see every dog and cat I meet, they really make my day. If you’re out of my walking radius and still would like me to care for your pets you can provide transportation fees then I’d be happy to accept the jobs if I’m available that are last minute when you can’t find someone else. This is my only job, caring for pets now. I have worked for over 30 years and I have found pet sitting to be the best retirement gig for my wellbeing. So I’m available quite a bit. I can walk dogs or do house visits for either cats or dogs. I can help with training if you have rules or something you’d like me to help with for your pets. I can also pick up an item you may need from premier pet shop.
