“It is so stressful leaving our older girl, but Victoria took such great care of her and Sula. If it’s a short trip or another week long, we will definitely be planning it around when Victoria is available!”
“Suliel went the extra mile to make sure my puppy was treated like family! She is amazing at sending periodic updates throughout the day with lots of pictures. If your a puppy parent like me, worried to have someone new watch your baby…Suliel is the right person for you.”
“Ashley and Cody are very sweet dog sitters! They took care of my dog with love, responsibility, and respect. I received videos and photos during the stay so was able to see my dog having a wonderful time with them. Glinda and Tessa were amazing friends too. I will go for them whenever my dog needs auntie, uncle, and friends!”
“Claire was absolutely wonderful! She was very thorough, and paid close attention to all instructions and made a point to stick to my dog’s medication routine. She communicated well throughout the stay, and clearly loves animals! My pup had an awesome time and was so comfortable during his stay. I felt very reassured that he was in good hands, and would 100% book her again!”
“She was absolutely incredible. Don’t even think twice about booking with her, just make it happen. She’s super caring, listens, and will always make sure you’re not feeling worried about your furry friend being away. 10/10.”
“Everyday we received an update with wonderful photos of how our puppy was doing. Jessi provides an excellent family home environment that is second to none - I think our pup was in 2 minds as to whether he wanted to come home with us! Jessi obviously loves animals & could not have done more to make our puppy more comfortable & provides a real home away from home. I have no hesitation in recommending Jessi.”
“Fantastic. Kept me updated with pictures and videos of my dog and communicated with me very well. My puppy Mishka had a GREAT time and looks forward to spending time with Jenna, Philip and Atlas again!”
“Very friendly home with several dog friends for Cody! Cody fit right in and seemed to enjoy the action of having other dogs with him. I received pics from Kim and assurances of his well being. I appreciated Kim’s consideration and care.”
“Alyssa is amazing!!! She kept us updated the entire week she had Walter with pictures, videos and messages! She took him on walks and game him lots of love! She’s the best (and so is Butters, her pup!)! Highly recommend!!”
“Kari was an amazing dog sitter, and we’re so grateful for the care she gave our puppy Nala. She was reliable, kind, and kept us updated and sent pictures and videos !! which really gave us real peace of mind while we were away for three weeks. It was clear our puppy was comfortable and being we'll cared for. We truly appreciate her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Feel absolutely blessed to have Ashley watch our dog for us when we are out of town. Our dog feels right at home at her house every time which says so much about the care Ashley gives him!”
About: I grew up in a dog household and have loved dogs my whole life. My family has bred puppies several times, so I’m comfortable caring for young dogs and giving them lots of attention. I’ve also watched many pets for friends and family and treat every animal like it’s my own. I’m currently in cosmetology school from 9:00 am-4:30 pm Monday-Friday. I can be flexible with early mornings or evenings on week days and any time on weekends. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in any space. I follow owners’ instructions closely and keep routines as normal as possible. I’m happy to take in smaller pets and provide a calm, clean, and loving environment with lots of attention and supervision.
“Randi is a top notch sitter. It is nice to be able to leave our pet and know she is in good hands. Randi keeps us informed and sends pictures often. She even offered to trim up my dogs ears and nails. Randi is the best sitter we have found.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive professional background in animal care. As an experienced vet tech and kennel manager, I've worked with both puppies and senior dogs for over 2+ years. This experience has equipped me with the skills to handle a wide range of needs, from watching young puppies to providing specialized care for older dogs. My professional training ensures that your pets will receive the highest level of care, whether it's administering medications, managing special diets, or simply providing a comforting presence. You can trust that your furry family members are in capable and caring hands with me. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine despite my full-time job. I work for 6-hour shifts, leaving me ample time to devote to your pets in the mornings and afternoons. Additionally, I'm always available in the evenings and nights, ensuring your pets receive consistent care and attention throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to your pets' needs, providing them with the love and care they deserve, even with my professional commitments. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize maintaining their familiar routines and environment to ensure their comfort and happiness. With experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles, I am well-equipped to handle the unique needs of each pet. I follow detailed instructions from the pet owners to provide personalized care, whether it involves feeding, administering medications, walking, or engaging in playtime. My deep love for all animals drives me to go above and beyond in my care, ensuring each pet feels safe, loved, and well-attended to in their own home.
“The absolute best! We are so grateful for Krystal for taking such good care of our special needs dog. Beyond her being incredibly flexible with our wild weekend, Krystal made sure our Wylie stayed on his schedule, was happy, and so loved during his stay. Will be contacting her again!”
“Haylea was amazing!! Kept me updated, sent lots of pics, and went out of her way to make sure my puppy felt at home. Helped put my mind at ease while we were out of town. I will definitely send Bandito there again!! Highly recommend!! A+++”
“Nora was great with Boston & very flexible. I booked with not a lot of time in advance and she was flexible for me to come and do a meet & greet despite it being the week of Thanksgiving. She sent lots of pictures while we were away from our sweet boy, and we are grateful for the good care Nora & her family provided to Boston.”

It was last minute, same day and through the week and Bella is 11, going blind and dealing with bad separation anxiety and Ms. Randi was fantastic with her. She kept me updated multiple times each day and was very detailed in her reports. Then when my flight back got delayed she was very flexible. I would recommend 11 out of 10 times. Thank you.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Amazing Dog Sitter! I recently had my dog cared for by Colton and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that they genuinely love and understand animals. They treated my dog like family, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in their care. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates, pictures, and messages that showed my dog having fun, getting plenty of attention, and being well taken care of. My dog can be a little shy with new people, but he warmed up to them instantly which says a lot about their energy and patience. The home was clean, safe, and dog-friendly, and they followed all my instructions perfectly. When I picked my dog up, he was happy, calm, and clearly had a great time. It gave me huge peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Colton to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with them again!
Sylvie was wonderful watching my puppy over the weekend! She was so accommodating in taking in a young puppy and made sure he was well cared for. I really appreciated the daily pictures and updates—it gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely trust Sylvie to watch him again!
Nicole was amazing! She took great care of my Annie. She sent updates and pictures which made me very happy. Nicole seems very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors. My puppy started her period the day I dropped her off and Nicole took great care of her. Definitely recommend letting her watch your baby!
Crissie is a exceptional furbaby caregiver. From the start, she was very attentive to listening to our needs for our furbaby while in her care. She assured us that she was qualified to deliver and loved interacting with furbabies. And deliver, she did! She made sure she kept us informed of how our furbaby was adjusting to his new environment while we were away from us through messages, photos and video clips. This type of communication made us feel at ease, seeing that our little furbaby boy was enjoying his time with Crissie and Booker her dog, who is such a gentle spirited sweetheart. If you are looking for someone who is kind, considerate and cares about your pet's well being then look no futher as Crissie and Booker are perfect for the job🤗. She will help you feel that your furbaby will be in good hands while you are away from them. By the way, now when I say " lets go see Crissie and Booker, right away our little furbaby wags his tail and sprints towards the door with such excitement 😆. Seeing Gustavo show such excitement just mentioning going to visit Crissie and Booker assured me that he was well loved and cared for while in her care. Thank you Crissie and Booker for providing top-notched care for our little boy, Gustavo. We are looking forward to our next visit with you guys!🤗😺
