“Max was so delighted to stay with Barbara and was so calm and content when I came to pick him up. This was our first experience with Rover and we will definitely use her again. Max is usually anxious around other dogs and high activity environments so this was a perfect setting for him and he got all the attention! Barbara sent photos and videos to help me relax knowing he was well taken care of. You can’t go wrong using her for your pet sitting needs.”
“Since I am a very particular doggie mom, I interviewed three sitters before choosing Dana to care for my dog for ten days while I had to be away from home. Instantly, I was impressed with Dana's ease with my dog and her clear dedication to keeping my pet safe, loved and exercised. Her own dog is a joyful spirit who welcomes other dog friends as willingly as Dana does. If you need peace of mind while you are away, Dana is a great choice for your pet.”

They were super flexible with timing and pick up details, and when I dropped Romy off with a chewed through carrier she even donated me a hard case carrier to go home with so Romy would be more comfortable. Would definitely recommend!”
“Taylor took excellent care of our senior Bichon Frise while we were away for a weekend. Our dog is set in his ways and was a little stressed in his first stay with a new person in a new city but Taylor handled it like a pro. She did a great job communicating with us to come up with some ideas to help him relax. By the time we picked him up he didn’t want to leave!”
About: I’ve had pets for 25+ years, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. Whether it’s giving meds, keeping a routine, or just making sure your pet feels safe and loved, I bring years of hands-on experience and a whole lot of heart. I treat every animal like family because that’s exactly what they are. I work from home with a super laid-back schedule, so I’m around pretty much all day to keep your pets company. Whether they need regular potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, or just someone to chill with, I’m here for it! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where they can relax, play, and feel right at home. I always follow the routines you provide and keep a close eye on behavior or anything out of the ordinary. I believe trust is earned, so I’m happy to give updates, photos, or videos to keep you in the loop. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in, or a longer stay, you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Both of my fur babies was well taken care of & they both was super happy in Yazmin’s care. She was amazing & kept me thoroughly updated on their care while I was out of town. I will be using her again in the future”
“I was very grateful to Michelle for accommodating my pup when work schedules changed last minute, and am confident my pup was well cared for!! Would book again and recommend :)”
About: I have taken care of many kinds of pets since I was a teenager. I currently have one senior cat. I love going out on walks and walking my dog. I hope through my example to my children as a pet owner and animal love that they will grow to be animal lovers one day too and responsible pet owners. I am a stay at home mom, and have a lot of freedom with my day to be able to go out and enjoy nature. I know life gets busy and we could all use a little help sometimes. That is why I am here to help take care of your fur baby. I believe in helping pets get the exercise they need as well and getting out any anxiety or pent of energy they may have. Walks are a wonderful outlet.
