About: If you are looking for a sitter who truly understands the "golden years," I would love to welcome your dog into my home. I specialize in providing a calm, predictable environment specifically tailored for senior dogs and those who prefer a gentler pace of life. As the owner of a senior dog myself, I know that older pups have unique needs. Whether it’s navigating a slightly slower walk, ensuring they have the perfect nap spot, or just offering the extra patience they deserve, I am well-versed in the quiet rhythms of a senior dog's day. While I have experience with medium-sized explorers who still enjoy a light hike or a steady stroll, my heart is with the smaller and older dogs who value comfort and companionship above all else. In my home, your dog will never be rushed or overwhelmed. We focus on "quality over quantity"—gentle movement followed by plenty of dedicated cuddle time on the couch. My home is the perfect retreat for dogs who prefer a quiet, predictable lifestyle. I am home the majority of the time, creating a calm, focused, and very low-stress environment. I don't force a strict, rigid schedule on your pet; instead, I prioritize your dog's personal routine. Whether they are an early riser, a fan of midday snoozes, or someone who needs specific mealtime pacing, I follow their lead. What a Typical Day Looks Like: • Companionable Quiet: Since I am often at my desk, your dog will have a constant, quiet companion for afternoon naps and low-key hanging out. • Flexible Pacing: I align my day with your dog's needs. If they’re feeling up for a gentle trail hike, we go. If they’d rather have a slow stroll or just rest, that’s exactly what we do. • Peaceful & Consistent: I keep the house cozy and tranquil, ensuring a stress-free experience that mimics the comfort of their own home. My approach to pet care is rooted in constant supervision and routine. Because I spend the majority of my day at home, your dog is never left alone for long periods, ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and emotionally supported throughout the day. In My Home • A Secure Sanctuary: My apartment is a dedicated low-stress zone. I maintain a "paws-on-the-ground" policy for safety and ensure the environment is free of hazards or loud disruptions that might startle a more sensitive or senior dog. • Small-Scale Focus: By specializing in small-to-medium breeds and senior care, I ensure that your pet isn't overwhelmed by larger, more high-energy dogs. • Attentive Companionship: Whether I’m at my desk or relaxing, your dog is always in my line of sight. I provide the constant presence they need to feel secure in a new environment. Trust & Communication • Reliable Updates: I understand how important peace of mind is. I provide regular photo and text updates so you can see exactly how your dog is settling in, from their trail hikes to their midday naps. • Medication & Routine: I am highly detail-oriented when it comes to specific care instructions, including precise feeding schedules, supplement administration, or mobility assistance for senior guests. • Trial Stays: To ensure a perfect fit, I always welcome a meet-and-greet to make sure your dog feels confident and happy in my space before their stay begins.

“Yajaira and her family was so good to my fur baby! She kept me updated with text, pictures, and accommodated my fur baby in every way to make him feel at home. Thank you for giving M’baku a home away from home during the holidays.”

“Jayanna was amazing with my cat Royal! Super sweet, reliable, and kept me updated the whole time. Would definitely ask her to watch him again!”

“I cannot say enough great things about Kara. This was our first time boarding with her and it was the best experience. She was responsive and kind! We met prior to my dog boarding with her and he loved her and her dogs. During his stay, she provided daily updates even with pictures which was a nice touch and she was very responsive if I messaged her. My dog was so happy to be there and seems like he felt at home which was important to me. When I picked him up, he was so tired from all the playing! Thank you so much Kara! Oliver would love to stay with you again.”

“Stephanie took great care of our senior dog for 3 days and 2 nights while we were away. In addition to feeding and walking her, Stephanie also gave her medication and wiped her skin per our vets orders. Our girl was very comfortable for her stay! Thank you, Stephanie!”

Lisa D.

“Anjaliben was an excellent host for my fur babies Bear and Chubbs. From our first meeting I knew that I made the right decision with how welcoming she was. Bear and Chubbs were calm themselves for being with someone besides our family. This was a first time boarding experience for them and I. Medication was also given without any problems. I would highly recommend Anjaliben for her services that she provides. Bear and Chubbs have found their second home for vacations away from home.”

Shimiere G.

“Stacey and her boyfriend were amazing with my dog Millie! They were available to board her last minute and Stacey kept me updated frequently with photos. Millie seemed very happy when I picked her up, and she looked like she had a good time. Thank you!”

“Adrienne cared for our George as if he were her own. She was very communicative. She took George out to various events and he seemed relaxed in her care. I would 100% use her in the future and highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!”

Megan H.

“Zoey had another great vacation with David and Phyllis! We are very grateful for the love and great care they gave her, and they will be our first choice for the future. To be honest, I think Zoey is a little sad to be home and misses them!!”

Perri C.

“Marcus and Nicki did an awesome job watching my dog. They sent pictures a few times a day to show how much fun he was having. They have their own dogs and they took their time introducing them so it wouldn’t be overwhelming. My pup even made some new friends. I was happy that my dog came back in good condition. A previous sitter sent him home filthy. I would recommend Marcus and Nicki to anyone that wants to board their dog in a loving home.”

About: Pet Care Experience I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra love and patience. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, giving meds, and of course plenty of belly rubs and cuddle time. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. What Sets Me Apart I really take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and quirks. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn good habits, supporting an older dog who moves at a slower pace, or sticking to a routine to keep your pup comfortable, I always adjust to what your dog needs. I also pay close attention to little details—like favorite toys, treats, or special instructions—so you can feel at ease knowing your best friend is in caring hands. Since I work from home, I have plenty of flexibility to give your dog the attention they deserve throughout the day. I can easily step away for walks, playtime, or check-ins, and I love having the company of dogs while I work. Whether it’s sticking to a set feeding and potty schedule or adding in some extra cuddle breaks, I’m able to keep your pup’s routine consistent and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my care, I make sure they’re in a secure and pet-friendly environment—free of hazards, with plenty of space to relax and play. I always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s diet, medication, or special routines, so your pup feels right at home. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect as I would my own. I keep doors locked, routines consistent, and make sure your dog feels safe and loved until you return. Building trust is important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and quick check-ins to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Shelanne was AMAZING!!! Harper has found her new vacation home :) I received updates and photos/videos daily. Easy booking, priced reasonably, great communication and wonderful first meet. Large backyard for dogs to run and play. She even took our baby on walks. We will definitely be booking again!!”

“Mónica and her family were awesome. I left my 4 month old puppy with them overnight and they took wonderful care of her. They have a beautiful home with a very safe fenced in back yard. The 2 dogs they have are very friendly and good with other animals. I could tell from the first meeting that Mónica understands and loves dogs. I was very nervous about leaving my little girl with anyone but I would definitely use Mónica again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a safe happy environment for your dog if you have to go away. Regular kennels can be so stressful on a dog having your dog join someones family like this for a few days is the only way to go in my opinion.”

Michael F.

“We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience with Coralie and Lou! From the moment we booked, they were incredibly responsive and thoughtful, making us feel confident and at ease about leaving our puppy in their care, her first time at a sitter. During our time away, Coralie and Lou kept us updated with frequent photos and videos, which was such a wonderful touch seeing Sunny and Sky having so much fun on their large fenced in backyard. It was clear that they genuinely cared for our dog, and seeing how happy our pup was in every update put our minds at rest. We appreciated the personal attention and care given, and we’ll definitely be using Coralie and Lou again in the future. Highly recommend!”
