“She asked all the right questions and updated me with my pups activities. My dogs became really good friends with two of her dogs. In short they didn't miss me and loved how she made them feel at home.”
“Brad was friendly and courteous. My pups seemed very happy when I picked them up, and he was kind enough to send a couple pictures of them getting all the cuddles they could want!”
“We are so grateful to Anolan for taking such amazing care of our two dogs, Maisy and Hendrix, this past weekend while we made a last-minute trip to New Orleans for the birth of our niece. From the very beginning, Anolan was incredibly kind, patient, and responsive. She sent us updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our doggos were both happy and in good hands. Maisy and Hendrix absolutely loved her (and her sweet dog, Benji, who they got to go on walks and play with!), and they were clearly spoiled with love and treats. Anolan’s boyfriend was also great with them, and it was heartwarming to see how comfortable and relaxed our pups were in their care. We ended up being delayed in picking them up, and Anolan was nothing but understanding and gracious about it. We would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you again, Anolan—you’re the best!”
About: As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone who truly treats your pup like family. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and personalities and currently focus on pups 40 lbs and under to keep things calm and comfortable in my cozy home. My own dog is about 65 lbs, gentle, and great with dogs of all sizes! I only care for one family’s pets at a time so I can provide focused attention, a peaceful environment, and personalized care for your pup’s unique needs. I work from home full time, so your dog will have lots of companionship, attention, and supervised time throughout the day. While I don’t include walks by default, I’m happy to offer them if requested. I do require that all dogs are crate trained, just in case I need to run a quick errand—your pup’s comfort and safety always come first. Your dog will be cared for in a safe, calm, and loving home with a fully fenced yard for outdoor potty breaks and play. I only accept crate-trained dogs under 40 lbs and host just one family’s pets at a time. This helps ensure a low-stress, high-attention environment tailored to your dog’s comfort. My dog is friendly and well-socialized, and I always prioritize slow, respectful introductions. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax, knowing your pet is in great hands.
“Joanna is an amazing dog sitter and was very patient with my 4 month old pup. She constantly updated me on how my pup was doing by sending me multiple pictures throughout the day. Would definitely book again!”
“Onyx enjoyed staying with Steve and had lots of fun. He warmed up quickly to Steve which is unusual so it's a testament to Steve's natural abilities with cats. Steve provided regular updates and pictures to reassure me things were going well. I highly recommend Steve as your next pet sitter!”
“We are so happy to have found Viji! Our 12 year old doodle developed a skin infection a day before he went in for boarding, but Viji took such good care of him and made sure he got his medications on time. She also was in touch with us constantly, letting us know how he was doing, and sent us lots of pictures and videos. He looked very much at home - and pampered 😊. We will surely be using Viji’s services again!”
“Andrea was wonderful. She kept me informed about my dog, Charlie, with updates and pictures. I travel for work and plan to use Andrea's services in the future. Highly recommend!!”
“No words to describe how thankful I am of Kayla! I went into labor early and she was kind enough to pick up my dog Sully from the groomers last minute and watch him overnight since I had to go to the hospital. I truly don’t know what I would’ve done without her! My dog absolutely loves hanging out with her family, and I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Millie and her family took amazing care of our sweet boy. Our family was gone for a week and my daughter was very emotional leaving him for that long. Millie reassured her that he would be loved and spoiled. She sent us daily photos and updates and he looked like he also had THE BEST doggy vacation! We will 100% use Millie again in the future. 🥰🐶”
“Kelly was awesome watching our great Dane while out of state. We got nightly updates and pictures. Pepper loved hanging with the other pups and snuggling with everyone on the couch. Will definitely book with them again.”
“Sanja was a fantastic sitter for my dog Willow. She cares deeply about dogs and treats them like royalty! I appreciated that she sent pictures of Willow's stay every day, and she communicated clearly throughout the entire process. I would absolutely trust her with Willow again.”
“Luna and Luke had a great time! They loved the dog door that allowed them in the fenced in backyard whenever they wanted and had fun playing with their dogs. They were happy and well taken care of. They played hard because they crashed when getting home. I will definitely be using Jeff and Kat again!”
“Lisa bent over backwards to accommodate my dog (especially since she went on a hunger strike apparently). She was loving and caring and asked a lot of questions/details to make sure she really had a good understanding of all my pets’ needs and habits. I will certainly use Lisa & David again for future pet sitting/boarding.”
“Stanley loved Sylvia! He was shy when we met her for the introductory meeting beforehand, but at least he wasn’t barking, which is usually the case. He was sad when I left him the day I dropped him off, but not upset. Sylvia sent me so many photos and updates! He slowly made his way to getting closer to her, and now he has a second mom. I wasn’t sure he’d come home with me :P Thank you for taking such good care of my baby, Sylvia!”
