“Kamiah and Casius took great care of our dog, Ziggy, over the holidays. They were easy to communicate with and sent a daily video to let us know Ziggy was doing ok. Drop-off was quick and easy, and Kamiah kindly brought Ziggy back to us at the end of the week. Would definitely recommend!”
“Sheree H. is the BEST!! It was our first time getting a dog sitter for our fur baby MILO and we were nervous initially. However, Sheree put our minds at ease by sending updates throughout the day she even sent video footage. I highly recommend Sheree for your dog boarding needs.”
“Dwight was great! He looked after my two pups while I was away on a family vacation. I could tell that he took the time to get to know both of them and treated them like extended family. He sent picture updates and was flexible with the drop off time. Next time I have to go out of town, I’m def booking with Dwight!”
“We don’t board our dogs or have them watched outside of our home very often. When we do need help, it’s usually a family member or close friend staying at our house. Because of that, we were a little nervous about having them stay somewhere else, but Emily was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly patient, loving, and kind with both of our dogs—especially our Labrador, who has become quite the homebody in his older years and needed a little extra time to adjust to being away from home. Emily handled it with so much patience and care, and we could tell she genuinely wanted him to feel comfortable and secure. When we picked them up, they were excited to see us but were clearly happy, comfortable, and well looked after. It’s obvious that Emily genuinely cares about the animals she watches and treats them like her own. We would absolutely recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would not hesitate to book with her again in the future. Thank you again, Emily, for taking such great care of our pups!”
About: I’ve been dog walking for 4 years and truly love caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities.Im also a dog mom to 2 presa carinos & 1 maltipoo. I’m reliable, patient, and focused on making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and comfortable during every walk. Whether your dog needs exercise, playtime, or just a little extra attention while you’re away, I treat them like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom because I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day active and organized. I enjoy being around animals, and I have free time during the day that allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or check-ins, I’m able to make pet care a consistent and reliable part of my weekly routine.I can also do late drop ins. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In my client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special care requests. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, patience, and exercise based on their personality and energy level. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and communication with pet parents by providing updates and photos so they feel at ease while away.
“Enas was wonderful to work with. She took great care of my Sammi. I would highly recommend her. I received great photos of how Sammi was doing. Enas worked with me when I had to make some changes to my schedule. I could tell her and her daughters really cared for Sammi and Sammi was happy to be there.”
“Matt and Leslie were amazing with Gunnar. He seemed to have a wonderful time. They were very communicative and send pics and videos daily. Their dog, Cooper, was an absolute sweetheart and was very easy going (didn’t even seem to mind when Gunnar stole some toys). I would highly recommend them!”
“Doris takes excellent care of our babies when we're on vacation! They come home happy and totally themselves, when is really reassuring. The photo and video updates help a bunch too.”
“Christine was wonderful with my dog! She responded quickly, sent me pictures to keep me updated, and was very flexible when I was running late. Tjis was my first time booking with a pup sitter so I was a little nervous, but she reassured me and helped me feel comfortable leaving my pup in her care. I really appreciated her kindness and communication, and I’d happily book with her again!”
“Genuinely the most kind hearted and understanding person I have ever met in my life. Was so patient and flexible during the most chaotic move I have ever experienced.”
“Katie was amazing and took great care of my pups needs and provided updates during a longer stay. Java was very welcoming as well, and we look forward to booking next time with them.”
“Deena, watched our Dog Sax two weeks ago. When we did the meet and greet, Sax Immediately fell out for belly rubs and then took off for a run around the house. He felt comfortable right away, which made me feel at ease. Deena was great at communicating and sending pictures during the entire stay. It was very evident that she loves dogs and we could tell that Sax enjoyed her as well. We will definitely be rebooking with her in the future and I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Rebecca was theeee absolute best!! I'm so glad we found her. She took the best care of our boy and made him sooo comfortable. This was our first time using this service and I'm so glad we did. She is the best and we plan on using just her for our dog in the future!”
“Herminia looked after our Frenchie and Yorkie over the Christmas and New Years holidays while we were on vacation. She took amazing care of the both of them like they were her own. She has a Pug and my dogs enjoyed socializing and playing with her dog, which was a huge plus. Definitely recommend her!”
“Kassia and Flash were great hosts for Rockett for a week long stay while I was out of town for work. Kassia was quick to respond and shared updates with me. I highly recommend Kassia for boarding or daycare!”

I follow my heart when it comes to judging people and on meeting Ana & Byron my heart never failed me, they are a very caring couple whom I felt comfortable leaving my Yogi with. They sent pictures and videos showing how he was getting along and playing with other dogs. We will most certainly without a doubt use them again. Knowing how they took care of him we were really able to enjoy our vacation! Thank you Ana & Byron for showing our Yogi love and care. 😊
Rachel is an absolute angel. She got back me to quickly about a last minute emergency boarding for the weekend and set me at ease immediately. Honey's a new addition who has never been left alone, and being a sitter myself, it was difficult being on the customer side for once haha. But she provided so many great pictures and updates on Honey's progress while there, it was a godsend to know she was so well taken care of <3 I almost don't want to recommend her cause I want her available 😂 But absolutely go with Rachel, she's the best! I know I will continue to!
Max had an amazing stay, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he received! As a Cane Corso owner, I’m very protective of my dog, so leaving him with someone else made me nervous. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in good hands. The sitter kept me updated, made sure Max was well cared for, and treated him like family. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly comfortable. That gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. Thank you for taking such great care of my big guy—I truly appreciate it!
We had a great experience with Kiana! She kept us updated with photos, and it was clear our dog was well cared for and comfortable during the stay. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
