“This is our second time working with Justin! He was available, easy to communicate with before, during and after his stay with our dogs. The dogs were relaxed and happy when we returned home & so were we! Highly recommend Justin!”


“Lynn was fantastic with our dog! He’s been anxious since a recent move, and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing he was well cared for. She shared photos and updates while we were away, and was super responsive before and during the sit.”


“Jeff was SO wonderful with our big, high energy, 9 month old puppy! He took extra care to make sure that our dog got plenty of walks, dog parks visits, and time to hang out at home. He even worked with us to add on an additional walk last minute after we returned from our trip. Our dog loves Jeff and we can’t wait to have him back!”


“Thank you for taking such good care of our brood :) We have fairly high needs pups and Theresa seemed to manage everything really well. It was also lovely to come home to such a clean house. Thank you!”


“Deven was very thoughtful and engaged with Albee's best interests at heart! He kept us up to date and sent multiple photos daily. Really appreciated his attention to detail!”


“Siobhan was awesome! Milo had a great time. He got some great exercise and also enjoyed chilling out. I was able to go off the grid and enjoy my camping trip without worrying cuz I knew Siobhan was on it.”


“Krys did a wonderful job taking care of our elderly dog this last week while we were on vacation. He got all his meds, walks, and lots of loving care. She got our mail, watered our plants, and left our house clean and tidy. We highly recommend her for your dogsitting needs!”


“Machele is the best!! This is our second time having her for an extended stay and plan to book her again. She treats our pets like her own and it shows! Our dogs are well behaved, happy and calm when we return. We love the daily updates (with lots of photos!) and coming back to a clean home. Highly recommend!”


“We had an excellent experience with Chip as a dog and house sitter while we were out of town for 9 days. He was communicative, easy to work with, and our two dogs seemed very happy and calm when we returned. We got daily updates with pictures and came home to a clean and tidy house. Highly recommended!”


“We're very happy with Emma's house sitting and pet care for our dog and cat, and at the last minute as well. She was very communicative with us which appreciated, and she followed our pets schedule and routine to a T. Emma's energy was perfect for our anxious senior dog struggling with doggy dementia who needed many oral medications and overall specialized care. When we came home the pets were happy and content. Definitely will rebook!”


“Zach watched our pup while we were out of the country for just over a week. Came home to a happy, healthy dog and a very clean house. Kind and communicative. We’ll definitely have him back!”


“We've used Sierra several times now and she continues to be perfect for our two pups. Our newer rescue is still pretty anxious, but we know he's in good hands with Sierra. She communicates well and keeps us informed regularly on how the dogs are doing. We totally trust Sierra, she's amazing.”


“Pablo took great care of our 2 boys! He stayed at our place for the weekend with our dogs. He sent us a lot of pictures with updates of the boys. He left our apartment in amazing condition! We have used Pablo in the past and he always takes amazing care of our dogs! We highly recommend him!”



About: I've had cats since I was a kid; have been a lifeline canine lover, but have been caring for them professionally for the last two and a half years. When engaging with a new client I spend time getting to know the pet with the owner present to understand any special requirements, nuances, or behaviors. Generally flexible with pet care based on the the animal's needs. I usually will take dogs with me on errands or to dog friendly spaces depending on each dog's behavior patterns. Typically I do not plan on spending 24/7 in the house/space with the pet especially if there are behavior issues. I believe respect and communication are critical when entering customer's homes and caring for their pets. If there are any issues with the home or animal; I will generally reach out earlier than later as well as providing regular if not daily updates on the home and pets.

“Shelby is amazing! This was our first time using Rover and she made sure to make us feel comfortable and know that our dogs were going to be very well taken care of! She sent pictures of their day together and updates throughout the whole day! We highly recommend Shelby if you are looking for someone to care for your fur babies!”


“As usual, Sami did an awesome job watching our Shiba Inu and two cats over 4th of July. Our pup gets anxious with fireworks but Sami handled it beautifully. Her attention to detail and compassion with the pets gives me peace of mind when I go out of town, I cannot recommend her enough!”
