Geraldine and her family were lovely. I felt totally safe leaving my dog with them over Christmas break. They sent photos of Monza snuggling in blankets and looking generally comfortable. They were super accommodating when I picked up my dog a day early. They were actually really sad to see him go. I would totally use Geraldine again.

Zelun took fantastic care of our dog for over a week during Thanksgiving! Our dog usually takes a few days to perk up and get used to her new situation, but she settled in after the first night! Zelun sent daily pictures and videos from walks and afternoon sun naps, and our dog looked sooooo happy in every picture. Would 10/10 recommend.

As long as Channel is available we will always book with her. She takes great care of our pup and sends us tons of updates. It’s clear that our dog is not stressed when we pick her up and had a great time. Channel is a pro and I strongly recommend her to anyone looking for quality care for their animals. Thanks again!

Zora was so well cared for here! Kate checked in halfway through our dog’s one day stay to let us know she had been walked and snuggled plenty. We will definitely reach out again when we need a place for our pup to stay!

Appreciate Paul’s attentive care to our 8-month old puppy and his honest feedback about how he was doing. Took him a bit to settle in but Paul was very patient and Timber clearly enjoyed his stay. Thanks Paul!

Haowen and his girlfriend were wonderful Rovers! I found Haowen after my previously-booked Rover cancelled last minute. Because of the last minute booking, I was very nervous, but Haowen was very attentive and asked a lot of questions up front to understand my dog’s needs and how best to accommodate her. During her stay, I received multiple pictures per day showing her having a wonderful time with Haowen.

About: I have extensive experience caring for cats from kittens to seniors, including administering oral medications. This includes my own cats and also family/friend cats. I have my own rescue pit mix dog who has needed some patience to build her confidence and I’m proud of the work we’ve done together in the 1+ years together. I’ve also worked as a kennel assistant handling meal times, medication, day cares, walks, and clean up. I have always loved pets, from hamsters up to big 100 lbs dogs. I will treat your baby with love and respect and understanding of their needs. I share pet care duties with my Fiance John who grew up with dogs and cats in his household and takes care of our two cats and rescue dog with me. We both work full time but I only work 4 days a week and John works 5 days but leaves later and gets home earlier than me. I handle the morning chores including pet meals and Phoebe’s first walk of the day. John handles the second walk of the day when he gets home from work and the second mealtime then. Night time, Phoebe always gets a walk before bed and cats get their last meal. On weekends and free days off together (I always have a 3 day weekend) Phoebe usually gets a trip out to a park, trail, or beach where she can either roam and get her running in. Phoebe gets playdates often with her dog besties who live nearby. Phoebe is crate trained and we have an extra crate on hand too as needed. Currently Phoebe and the cats roam free together when we’re at work because they’re trustworthy now but if a guest comes, we can separate rooms easily and use crates. In other clients homes, I will always follow the rules of the house. Dogs and cats alike will get lots of enrichment, walks, and playtime so everyone is satisfied and comfortable.

It was our first time leaving Miss Kiki alone with anyone else overnight and we were a bit worried how she’d react. Well, Victoria put me at ease with a meet/greet a couple of days before to get acquainted. She stayed over for two full nights and during that time I received pics of their walks, bath and just hanging out cuddling etc. I would/will call upon Victoria again - she truly put me at ease. Oh, and Miss Kiki loved her too!

Rachel took such great care of our buddy and we got lots of cute photos and updates. He had so many walks and fun that he didn’t even want to leave - we got to bring home a happy and well exercised pup (which takes a lot for our spunky terrier mix) Thanks for the extra love and care Rachel! Would absolutely schedule another stay :)

Michael is such an amazing dog sitter! Frankie was in heaven on his vacation with Michael and his family because he was able to play fetch essentially the entire time! I got plenty of updates and Frankie was comfortable and made to feel right at home. Frankie is also dog reactive and has special walking/care needs because of that. Michael was super accommodating and understanding of this. I highly recommend Michael!

Ari and Sara are fantastic sitters, and I highly recommend them! They have watched Pipa several times and she is always so excited to go back to their house and see them. She gets along great with their dog, Bond, and always comes home happy and relaxed. Ari and Sara are incredibly responsive, flexible, and genuinely caring. It gives me great peace of mind knowing Pipa is in such good hands with them when I have to go away.
