“Jennifer was amazing!!!! Sent lots of photos of Milo with his new friends! He had the best time with her two pups as well he slept as soon as he got home I know he was playing all day long! 100% will book again.”

“Unbelievable!!! This was the first time that we gave Zeke to another person. As soon as Zeke saw Hendra he was running to him, and when I came (hesitantly...) to pick him up, he was so calm and content, an indication that he had a great 2 days! Will know where to send next time we need a sitter, and very warmly recommend Hendra! He was extremely courteous and kind, professional and warm at the same time!”

About: I have cared for puppies, as well as adult dogs and aging dogs. I love them all and they all sense it when I meet them. I am retired, so I have a lot of time and a very flexible schedule. Also, I am up very early in the morning, and like getting an early start. I have a partially fenced yard, so would be more comfortable with your dog n a leash or inside the house if at my home.
“Max had a wonderful time with Mark and will be looking forward to the next time he stays with him. Mark kept me posted on their time together with regular photos and videos, and I had absolute trust in the care he was giving my boy. I would not hesitate in calling on Mark in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m Sarah 🐾 I’ve loved working with dogs for as long as I can remember and have experience with dog walking, hiking, daycare, and basic training support. I’m especially great with high-energy breeds and love making sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and care they need. Whether your pup loves long walks, outdoor adventures, or just some extra company during the day, I treat every dog like family and focus on creating a safe, fun, and positive experience. 🐶💛 I stoped working as an electrician so that I can work with kids and animals, animals are my passion. I loved working at a farm and my favorite is group hikes Safety is my top priority so I treat every pet like my own and keep the space clean and secure. Sticking to their routine is really important to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free.
“Jessica took wonderful care of our 3 babies while we traveled abroad, including one who recently had surgery for cancer and is currently undergoing treatment. She had no issues giving our dogs pills and eye drops and sent us daily updates and pictures. Her apartment is cozy and calm and it was a great environment for our dogs. Highly recommend.”

“Rebecca did the best job looking after our dog Bruce for 5 nights! She was super communicative with lots of photos. Bruce was super happy - he got lots of cuddles and didn’t want to leave! Will absolutely rebook next time we need a sitter”


About: I am a work from home dog mom and love my German Shorthaired Pointer, Remi. We go to the beach, park and go on neighborhood walks every day. I have the availability and capacity to have another dog to tag along. I have fostered dogs in the past and love helping a dog have a safe and comfortable place to stay! I work from home and take my dog for a walk every few hours or bring her to the beach or the park on my lunch break. Dogs have plenty of toys and comfortable places to relax and play while I work. Remi would love to keep your pup company! I have the room to have your dog set up however they need. If your pup is crate trained, I have a spare one to set up for them with all the comfy things needed to put in it. I have lots of treats and toys for pups to play with and a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood to walk them in.
“Thomas was a kind and patient dog sitter. He was wonderful with my very anxious dachshund. I felt confident that Thomas, with his experience, would be able to take care of Bruno. He sent me pictures of Bruno resting which reassured me that everything would be ok. I was so grateful.”

“Luz & Alessandro took wonderful care of my senior boy, Gunner. We got consistent updates and photos, which was very much appreciated. Any time I needed to contact them, they were always available. This is a very sweet couple who clearly care about the animals they bring into their home.”

“Carol watched our Hansel for 3 days/2 nights. We were impressed from our initial meet & greet at Carol's neat, organized home. Her demeanor and experience indicated that she would provide excellent care for our pet. We received daily updates including photos that all was well, and Hansel was being his usual sweet self. At pick-up we found our boy happy, and ready to go home - we are confident he had an excellent experience with Carol. We are happy to have Carol as a resource for our future pet sitting needs.”

Jessica was great! She took great care of my big guy (95 LB Mastiff/Hound mix) Frankie, taking him on several walks a day as well as making sure he got his daily medication. I received updates everyday that included pictures and videos. Frankie did have some separation anxiety but Jess made sure to spend lots of time with him to make him feel comfortable. Couldn't recommend her more!

Jess is the best and takes care of my dog the way I would. I know he is in great hands when staying with her and I feel completely at ease. This last time she even administered his eye drops without any issues and I’m beyond grateful for her 💗 Chexy can’t wait to see you again!! Thank you 😊
