“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“Ana and Bryon were very attentive to my dog. I received a daily reports about her appetite and daily activities, alone with videos and pictures. I would definitely use their services again”
“Mercedes has been nothing but wonderful. She took great care of our puppy who was only 5 months old. There was never a moment I had to worry about my dog not being in good care. She kept us updated, sent lots of pictures, and ensured us she was having a great time. She took our puppy on many walks and played with her lots! Her husband and her kids also loved the dog and got many pictures of them cuddling with her. I cannot recommend her enough, and went above and beyond! Mercedes is passionate about taking care of dogs and her kids and husband also have a deep love for animals. Next time we got out of town she will be the first person we call and recommend her to all our family and friends!”
“I honestly can't say enough about Sandy and Steve. They both are AMAZING!!!! I was a little nervous, but they assured me everything would be great, and they are experienced in taking care of pets. They sent pictures to show me that my baby girl was fine, and I could tell just by the photos that my Bella was absolutley happy. Thank you so much, guys, you both are truly amazing. I do believe their 10-year-old son was a big help as well.”

About: From an early age I have always had a pet at home, we got Peewee 4 yrs ago, recently we adopted 2 more, their family couldn’t take care of them anymore. Toby 8yrs old and Sebastian 10yr all 3 of them are loving and get along great.. We care for your pets as if they were our own. I work from home remotely so your dog will have me at home all the time. When your dog stays home with me, I will take them in daily walks 2-3 times a day. In the day time I walk them two times 2-4hrs apart and evening, I will walk them 1 more times 2-3 hours apart. I strive to recognize those and meet them through patience, loving interaction. After our meet and greet, I like to get well acquainted with your pet and make sure they are comfortable with me. Once I’m aware of their routines, needs, we are good to go! Constant communication, you will receive regular updates, including photos, videos, so Can rest assured that your companion is receiving top notch care and attention.
“Liliana and her family gave me such peace of mind to leave my Whiskey in their care. The initial visit with the family in their beautiful home was so warm and friendly. And while I was away, I was so grateful for the updates and pics throughout each day. Whiskey got attached to one of Liliana’s teenage daughters. So sweet!”
About: I was always had furry siblings but have graduated to a cat mama. I enjoy creating personal heavens for our companions. Reliable, punctual and kind. I have a full-time job that pays the bills but I am looking for ways to feed my soul. Overnights are great as well as drop ins. I would prefer to host at client's homes as my current home does not allow dogs. Willing to board or take cats overnight. Let's make it a sleepover!
“Lynda is amazing. Asks good questions and puts forth extra effort to make sure Daisy is well taken care of. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust to be direct, manage expectations and keep my girl happy and healthy while I’m away. I keep coming back to Lynda because Daisy is happiest when she’s with her.”
“Megan was great! She was incredibly kind from the moment I sent the booking request to the time I picked Storm up. She was responsive and kept me updated with plenty of photos throughout Storm’s stay. Storm enjoyed her time!”
“Thank you, thank you, thank you Candace & Steve. They are the best dog sitters! As soon as we dropped off Rocco, he couldn't stop wagging his tail. The day after we picked him up, he looks a little sad... like his missing Pumpkin. Beside missing Rocco in our travels, we are never worried about the care Candace & Steve provide. We so appreciate the pictures and the daily update on how Rocco is doing. If you are looking for a great dog sitter, look no further. Thanks Candace & Steve!”
“Shani responded quickly to take a last minute long term booking. She was very communicative & hands on with Malcolm. Felt very comfortable leaving my baby while out of the country.”

About: I’ve grew up with family pets that were dogs from small to large.I also had/have Cats.I currently own cats and a puppy akita. I know basic grooming such as clipping nails and bathing.Cats can be tricky to bathe but not really a problem. I’m a stay at home mom so I’m pretty much always available during the week/weekend unless something comes up to where I am unavailable for services. I give my pets the basic care and needs they should receive such as monthly coat brushing,Bi weekly nail trims and rarely if really needed bathing.

Iman is so flexible and quick to respond. She has the cutest added touches that make me feel confident that Malcolm is being cared for properly. I won’t spoil it by sharing all the details but know that Iman is super thoughtful. I hope that Iman is Malcolm’s forever sitter! 💕
Jocelyn is hands down THE best pet sitter I could ask for. Jocelyn has taken care of my little pup I want to say close to 5 times now or maybe a little over and every time she is welcoming of us and always on top on communication. Sending videos and updates of lychee. Lychee gets so excited to see Jocelyn and her little pups and it shows me that lychee trusts her so much. If you haven’t worked with Jocelyn yet it’s a must Shes will take the best care for your fur baby!!!
