“Outstanding caretaker, loves the dogs in her care and takes excellent care of mine for the week. I am so happy to have found her and completely confident she will provide the best care. Stays in touch, checks in to see how things were going while I was recovering from surgery. Thank you Kristal!”



“Jayne took care of our dog Biubiu for a whole month and did a fantastic job! We could tell Jayne really bonded with Biubiu and treated him as if he were her own dog. A few weeks into the stay Biubiu had some soft/liquid stool issues, and Jayne did a great job communicating with us so we could determine the best course of action for Biubiu. She also took the most amazing daily photos of Biubiu, way better than the pictures we ourselves have taken of him.”


“Mary was wonderful with our 1.5 year pup. We revived photos and videos everyday letting know how she how doing. Our girl even came back home knowing a couple of new commands. Highly recommend Mary!!”


“Rhondarose and her family were wonderful! She was able to accommodate all three of my rascal pups. She has two dogs of her own who are very friendly and welcoming. Rhondarose is very communicative and attentive to the care of her guests. Prince, Suba Rue, Jasmine, and I want to thank you again for the love and care provided. Do not hesitate to book with Rhondarose!”


“Ms. Deidre took great care of Paisley!!! She communicated frequently with videos, pictures and updates throughout our 2 week off. Paisley felt very comfortable and loved! Having Milo as a playmate also played a huge part in Paisley having a great time. We highly recommend Ms. Deidre and we are sure to continue using her services as our needs arise. Thank you so much, Ms. Deidre and Milo!! :)”


“Erena is an absolute angel! The love and care she gave my cat was extremely comforting. We needed to go out of town for two months and had no one to watch Charlie. She took him into her home. Let him sleep on her bed and administered his pills twice a day. She frequently sent text and pictures and communicated and he needs that would arise. I almost don’t want to tell people how wonderful she is, but she deserves the recognition. We are extremely grateful to Erena and her husband for including Charlie into her family. Would absolutely book again if needed.”



“Ewa was an amazing sitter for my Basenji, he enjoyed his time very much while staying with her. I really liked the setup that enabled my dog to go in and out on his own when he needed to and she showered him with love and attention the entire stay. I will be contacting Ewa in the future.”


“Karina took great care of Paisley so much so that she felt at home. The whole family is very welcoming. As Paisley is a fussy eater, she made sure to hand feed her daily and allowed her to be on the bed. She was well fed, provided bath when she got dirty, taken out for walks, sent us timely updates with photos and videos, which kept us relaxed during our vacation. We are extremely happy to have found a perfect place for Paisley in the future. Overall, a great experience and there is no doubt that we will continue to use Karina's services going forward. Thank you, Karina for taking care of Paisley and for keeping her happy throughout her 2+ weeks of stay!”


“Marta was an incredible sitter for our boy while we traveled for a five day trip. Benny was cared for, we got lots of pictures, and he had the best time playing with his new friends! We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience with Rover.”


About: 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs since I was young, and it’s been a lifelong passion. Over the years, I’ve looked after pups of all sizes—from a tiny 8 lb dachshund to strong, lovable 100 lb pitbull mix. My experience includes everything from energetic puppies to slow-moving seniors, each with their own needs and personalities. I currently live with two spayed female dogs who are well-socialized and have peacefully cohabitated with several foster dogs since last year. I regularly volunteer with Border Tails Rescue, providing a safe, nurturing home for dogs in transition. Through fostering, I’ve gained deep experience with behavior observation, gentle training, and helping anxious or shy dogs feel secure. I’ve managed feeding routines, administered medications, and supported dogs through recovery and adjustment periods. I’m especially mindful of canine body language and group dynamics, and I only accept dogs who are friendly with others to maintain a safe, peaceful environment. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. I treat every pup with patience, respect, and the kind of attention I’d want for my own. 🐶 When dog sitting, I am home all day so your pup will have lots of attention. On the rare occasion I do leave the house, it's never for more than 4 hours at a time. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I share my home with two friendly, playful dogs—Miley, a 50 lb mixed breed, and a 75 lb American Bully—who are well-socialized and enjoy respectful canine company. My securely fenced yard provides space for supervised outdoor play, and my middle school children, who are also well-versed in watching and caring for dogs, help ensure everyone feels safe and supported. I only accept dogs who are known to be dog-friendly to maintain a positive, secure environment for all.


“Michelle was amazing! Incredibly attentive, understanding, and responsive — the perfect formula for your dog to have a great time and for you to feel assured that they are. Highly recommend :)”



“Katerina was awesome! Our pups seem to have loved their stay! She was really fast with communications and it was nice to see some pictures of them enjoying themselves! Would use again!!”


“My dog was treated so well be Yuliia and her partner during his stay. Yuliia did a great job keeping me updated on how he was adjusting to her home and sent me regular videos and photos. She walked him multiple times and day and took him on rides and to the dog park. I shared instructions on what do if he got anxious and generally she was able to give him a calm and stable home while I was gone. This was my first time working with Yuliia and I would definitely book with her again!”


“It's the third time that my dog stays with Stephanie, and she is very kind and careful with my dog, she sends me pictures every day, Bella is so confortable with her. Bella loves her.”


“Christene was so great with Lucy! She sent updates with pictures and showed how great of a time Lucy was having with her dog Luna. Lucy came home so happy! Would have Christene watch Lucy any time!”


About: I have experience with young dogs and senior dogs. They just melt my heart! My cats are used to dogs. We've had them to recently, I'm home most of the time. I'm retired so can accomodate a dog's needs. I'm looking forward to welcoming a sweet dog for a visit. I'm pretty available to a pet's needs. I would feel a huge responsibility to take care of someone's pet the way I would want mine treated

About: I have been caring for animals since I was 13, developing a deep understanding of their needs and well-being. As a nurse, I bring the same level of dedication and attentiveness to my dog-sitting services, ensuring each pet receives the care and comfort they deserve. At home, I have a 4-year-old miniature schnauzer and a playful 2-year-old toddler, so I understand the importance of a safe and loving environment. Whether your dog needs companionship, exercise, or special attention, I provide reliable, compassionate care you can trust. Working from home allows me the flexibility to tailor my schedule to meet each dog’s needs. Whether your pet requires frequent walks, structured outdoor time, or a specific routine, I am available to provide the care and attention they need. I understand that every dog has different energy levels and habits, so I am happy to accommodate owner requests to ensure their pets feel comfortable, active, and well-cared for throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced backyard, I prioritize safety by always keeping dogs leashed during outdoor time. Whether going for a walk or spending time outside, I follow all necessary safety measures to ensure each pet’s well-being. I understand the importance of secure handling and will always adhere to owner preferences and best practices to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for every dog in my care.

“Victoria was very friendly and took great care of my dog (boarding at sitter’s house). She followed through instructions and maintained contact through the duration of my dog’s stay. She would update me on my dog’s days regularly and ask any questions if unsure of something. Would recommend and book her again. 10/10🫶”


“Kate was a wonderful sitter for Kenzie. She took Kenzie on a couple long walks so Kenzie could sniff all the scents of a new neighborhood. As expected, Kenzie had to acclimate to her overnighter by curling up in her crate for a bit. When she was ready, she gladly rejoined the humans, just looking to chill out and get lots of pets. I highly recommend Kate!”

Joanna L.
“Joanna fostered the puppy- Maeve- that we adopted in June. Joanna was able to tell us all about Maeve’s temperament with other dogs and children. Joanna was friendly and easy to talk to. When we adopted Maeve, she was mostly housebroken, thanks to Joanna! Since we had been able to talk to Joanna about Maeve beforehand, adopting her was a very smooth transition! Joanna also gave us her cell phone number so that we could continue to ask her any questions about Maeve after adoption. We had a great experience adopting Maeve and working with Joanna as her foster mom. Joanna would be a great pet sitter!”

You will never find a better care giver for your clients.”
