“Xiyan was amazing! She was available last minute, super responsive, and made us feel totally at ease. She checked in regularly, gave great updates, and most importantly — kept our pup Frankie safe and happy. You can tell she really cares and has a great energy with dogs. We’re so grateful we found her and would absolutely book her again!”

“Marco is a wonderful sitter. My husband and I have been extremely lucky to find such a reliable and trustworthy sitter for our baby. I’m sort of a helicopter dog mom, and Marco really caters to every request. We have a doxie who has very special care instructions due to his sensitive back so it really gives us peace of mind knowing he is taken care of properly. Our pup absolutely loves him and it has truly been a blessing to find someone we trust in our home and with our pup Frank. I highly highly recommend him. Thank you so much Marco!”

“Karen was a great dog walker. We had our initial meet and greet with her and she was very understanding with how our dogs were with new people. She was very patient and kind with them. I loved the updates with photos she put on their report card, I could see that they were being well taken care of. She would keep me updated when I needed to refill their doggy bags. My dogs quickly liked her and would patiently wait by the door for her to come. As an anxious dog mom, I was able to trust her completely. I would highly recommend Karen for any pet needs.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for a little over 10 years. Since I was a young girl, I’ve worked alongside a dog rescue, gaining experience with everything from shy, nervous pups to high-energy dogs. Over the last three years, I’ve worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility, supervising group play, managing special needs, and ensuring each dog’s safety and happiness. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and love their pets as if they were my own. With two rescue dogs at home, I understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and making every pet feel safe, loved, and cared for whether they’re a playful puppy, a sweet senior, or a dog with special needs! While my main focus is on dogs, I’ve also cared for friendly, socialized cats in the past and am comfortable providing care for them under the right circumstances. I’ve recently finished school and am now looking for new opportunities. This gives me plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m available for drop-ins and walks throughout the week, including late mornings, afternoons, and evenings. My flexible schedule means I can easily fit into your pet’s daily routine, providing walks and drop-in care whenever they need a little extra attention or company! I have years of hands-on experience with dogs of all temperaments, from shy rescues to playful pups. I can provide a safe, loving environment during visits or walks, and I’m comfortable managing special diets, administering medication, or crating your dog if needed. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of pictures and messages!
“You were great and I will defenitely use you in the future. I was nervouse at first but Gigi was happy and did great with Lauren. Gigi can be very nervous outside and Lauren was patient with her and provided me daily updates. 5 stars!!”


“Amy was super friendly and amazing with Rosie. Appreciated her coming to meet our pup beforehand to make sure it was a good fit. She gave us updates throughout the walk and sent plenty of pictures. Highly recommend to anyone and will definitely use again.”

“Denise is amazing! She responded super quickly to my last minute walk request, accommodated a meet & greet the same day, and is very understanding and flexible. We are grateful to have found her :)”

About: I grew up in a neighborhood that had many dogs, and I would always go over to my neighbors’ houses to play with and take care of their fur babies. I currently have a happy 4 year old schnoodle who goes on walks every day and loves to play fetch. We are available from Thursday-Monday for day and/or night boarding. I work from home on Monday, Thursday, and Fridays and my mom stays home on the weekends, so your fur baby will receive around the clock care. 😊 We can take the dog on multiple walks a day and we have a 13 pound friendly and energetic Schnoodle to keep your dog entertained
“Sherrie was reliable and loving- an ideal combination! She went the extra mile (literally!) walking our dog Millie to make sure Millie was thoroughly exercised. She checked Millie's water bowls without us asking. Sherrie also communicated with us clearly, promptly, and warmly. We will definitely try and hire her again when Millie needs some extra attention. Thank you, Sherrie!!”

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a child. We recently lost our baby girl (who was 11.5) and we miss her terribly. I am ready to welcome pets into my home for sitting services where they’ll get safe care, lots of love and great attention. I am excited to start this sitting journey! I currently work from home full-time and am available to ensure they are cared for throughout the day and overnight. Happy to ensure they get proper walks, play time and outdoor time according to their needs and their parents’ wants. Pets in my home will be able to roam free throughout the home, unless the parent uses crate training. They can hang with me while I work and go on walks throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard for outdoor time as well.
“Here’s a grammatically correct and natural-sounding version: Wen is the best! I had an ankle injury and made a last-minute request for a walk, and she generously helped me. Noa also had some stomach discomfort, and she took great care of him. He really likes her and already misses her.”

“Stephanie was amazing with our dog Rosie. Rosie came back from all of her walks with a big smile and tired 👌🏼. Stephanie also went out of her way to come in quietly to pick up Rosie since I’m on conference calls all day. It was a seamless handoff. Would highly recommend to anyone needing help with their pup. Will definitely book again.”
