“Paul and Mimi took really good care of Baxter. Paul really loves dogs and was gentle and caring. It also seemed like he had a good time from all the photos, and seemed entertained the whole time.”
“Duskie enjoyed his stay with Emily and her furry sidekick Addie. Emily has lots of experience with senior pups including foster dogs. Duskie seemed comfortable and adjusted pretty well taking naps and relaxing on his first visit. We’ll plan to book Emily again soon!”
“We're ongoing clients of Gordon & Allison with multiple day sittings. We appreciate Gordon's patience with our senior dog and his sincere interest in wanting her to have a good experience in their home. He was kind in ensuring perishable food was kept chilled when our dog didn't finish her meal. We're so glad we found such trusted sitters.”
“Vicky and Ally were awesome in taking care of my 3 month old golden doodle for a day! I love how friendly she was and a really fast responder. I got updates throughout the day that made me really feel like my pup was in such good hands! I would not hesitate to book a daycare with Vicky and Ally again!”
“Julley is very sweet and thoughtful with her care. She helped beanie comb some of his knats and took him out to the park. Thank you so much for the gentle care 😊”
“This review is long overdue. Christoper has been watching my puppy three times a week since beginning of January. I feel as if it’s been for months but it’s only been a couple weeks. He is a great communicator and super responsive. He has such patience with my energetic puppy. He takes him and his dog on walks and has a great outdoor space for them to run around. He takes great notes and feedback on each visit and takes lots of fun pictures. I highly recommend Christopher. Anyone who can handle my 73 pound puppy is a superstar. Thank you Christopher!”
“Sam did such a fabulous job with our sweet lab puppy! She made sure that our boy Bear acclimated comfortably at her home on his first day of doggy day care - and sent frequent photo & video updates of him throughout the day. We received a great summary of his day at pick up as well. Would highly recommend her services!”
“Kiara and her family were the perfect match for Dora. Kiara sent me pictures each day and communicated clearly and often. I will 100% be booking Kiara in the future when needed!”
About: Love all dogs, but only want small dogs as mine are small. Dogs must be house trained. I have had a guide dog breederwho had 42 puppies and have done fund raisers for Sherri at Muttville Senior dog rescue. I teach drawing a couple hrs a day so will be home 21 hrs a day and have a large fenced in yard if your dog wants to play. I have two elderly pups so your dog would have company. Our dogs are our kids, and we will treat yours the same. Your dog has to get along with others to work well here.
“Lily took exceptionally amazing care of my dog, Kiwi! I felt 100% comfortable leaving Kiwi in her care while I was busy at work. I appreciated the photo updates throughout the day of Kiwi having a nice time. I am very happy to have found Lily. :)”
“Antonio and Cynthia took great care of my pup. Zhulik came home happy and full of wags. He was walked, watered and fed, and he’s sleeping soundly at my feet.”
“Karen and Jeff were great! They were very welcoming of Macey even though she's still a puppy. They seem to keep Macey active and engaged with walks and playtime. Their own dog seemed to accept Macey as the day went on. Macey napped and ate well there. They kept me informed with photos and notes. Macey and I both felt comfortable with Karen and Jeff.”
“Fatima and her husband were really sweet with taking in my little guy last minute and for a majority of the day. I really appreciated it. Pluto was happy and well taken care of, she even kept me posted through out the day. Pluto enjoyed his stay and will rebook again!”
“We’re so happy to have found Vivian on such short notice. My original dog sitter called out sick and I needed someone to look after my fur baby the very next day for a few hours while I took my toddler to the zoo. This was our dog’s (Bodie) first time doing doggy day care in someone else’s home, and Vivian helped relieve my anxiety and Bodie’s. I received lots of photo updates of a happy pup. I’ll definitely go to her again for future dog sitting needs.”
“Jen was very prompt on the app with her updates and messages and nice about sitting our dog. She shared a lot of pictures which made me feel very comfortable knowing he is happy and safe. She was very nice about the 15 min over time coz we were late in picking our dog. Thanks Jen”
“Ronnie took excellent care of Bo for the day! We got frequent updates with photos and a thorough report at the end of the session. Would book again!”
“Taylor is the man for the job!! I forgot to bring my dog’s food and he not only went to the store when I mentioned that my dog had some special diet and only plain chicken would work but he sido prepared it. I’ll definitely bring my dog again to he under his watch.”
“Kami was very professional. Took care of my 2 frenchies like a pro ( not easy to do ) and didn't mind when I came 1 hour later than what time was agreed on. I would definitely use her next time I'm in town”
“Pooja and her husband provided fantastic care for my dog Brady! Super easy to coordinate and communicate with and sent so many appreciated photos! And above all else Brady had a great time. You’re pup will be in good hands with Pooja.”
About: My experience with pet care began over ten years ago, looking after the dogs of family and friends whenever they went out of town. From the very first pup I cared for, I fell in love with the unconditional love and joyful energy dogs bring into our lives. Since then, I’ve been a devoted pet parent myself, raising my small dog from puppyhood during the pandemic to the happy, healthy companion he is today. I’ve managed everything from feeding schedules to daily walks, baths, medication, and of course, lots of playtime and cuddles. I’ve also boarded family members’ dogs over the years and have always enjoyed creating a relaxed, nurturing environment for each pet. My dog is friendly and gets along well with others, but if your pup prefers their own space, I have multiple living areas to keep everyone comfortable and separated. I’m confident following structured feeding, walk, and medication routines(oral and topical), and I especially love caring for small dogs with big personalities. I’m currently home full-time, and my wife works remotely as well. That means your pup will receive round-the-clock attention and care. Whether it's sticking to a specific routine or accommodating unique needs, your pet’s wellbeing is always our top priority. Your dog’s safety and comfort matter deeply to me. I live in a quiet housing complex with multiple dog-friendly spaces, including small doggie playgrounds that are perfect for playtime and potty breaks. My home is designed for flexibility. I have puppy gates, a small metal crate available if needed, and multiple living areas so pets can be separated as needed. You're also welcome to bring your own crate or bedding to help your pet feel more at home. If your dog has any special needs, anxiety, or unique quirks, I’ll take the time to understand them and adapt my care accordingly. I believe every dog is unique and deserves care that reflects that

What really stands out is how well he stuck to her strict bathroom schedule and kept me constantly updated with photos and little notes. I always feel totally at ease when she’s with him because I know she’s being cared for just like I would.”
