“I have left Anya with Yuhan several times and it has always been a great experience. I know that Yuhan takes great care of my dog and will not hesitate to bring her back.”


“This is our second time using Dylan and he is wonderful. He cares for Millie as if she was his own. His communication is excellent and he always sends updates with pictures. We would definitely recommend him to our friends and family.”


“Jennifer is truly the best! Communicative and great with my dog. Also has a fun back yard and great pets- my dog always comes home nice and tired!”


“Joseph was amazing with our 3 Cane Corsos. He saved the day by providing us with same day service since we were from Jacksonville and our babies couldn’t stay at the resort with us as planned. He took amazing care of them and provided us with regular updates that included pictures and videos. If you need somewhere loving to send your fur babies while you’re away Joseph is the absolute best!”


“Gabriela was wonderful!! She kept us informed & sent pictures which was very much appreciated! We missed our dog, Poppy, but felt more at ease with updates! She let us know if he was eating & how he was doing in the unfamiliar environment. She asked if it was ok if she could give him homemade chicken which he loved! Whatever unease Poppy may have felt initially quickly dissipated with her loving care of him!! She was also very sensitive to his possible reaction to fireworks over July 4 anticipating he may not react well. She made sure she provided a quiet and safe space for him. We highly recommend her and will ask for her again should the need arise! Wish we could give 5+ stars!!”


“James was great to our pup! Our pup didn’t even wanna leave when we picked him up so he had the best time!! Communication was great, and Denver is the sweetest girl and got along great with our pup!”


“I am so thrilled to have met Yuiko. My dog, Luna, stayed with her for doggy day care earlier in the year. Yuiko took wonderful care of her. This time she stayed overnight for 4 nights. Yuiko sent me pictures showing me how happy Luna was! When I picked Luna up, she was thrilled to see me but was in no rush to leave Yuiko and her very loving family!”


“My dog is so comfortable with them. It makes me so happy and relieved to leave her where she is comfortable. It was her first overnight yet she didn’t exhibit any anxiety. I’m truly grateful.”


“Dara was amazing with Seven. I’m always so nervous when I leave him with someone new but she made me feel 100% comfortable. Her communication was top tier and she sent me a bunch of pictures and videos. I would most definitely use her again.”


“Christina did an absolute fantastic job with our boy Gizmo. She was super sweet, very responsive and punctual. She spoiled our boy and took great care of him. We have definitely found our permanent sitter! 🙂”


“Jaimi is literally the perfect sitter. Knight has a great time, he was so content! We even did a meet and greet and I just knew that Jaimi’s warm heart and Knights docile demeanor would be a perfect fit. She sent updated pics daily and communication was punctual and everything I could ask for. I will be using her in the future”


About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels including seniors and high energy breeds. I have a gentle, patient approach and understand dog body language well. I’m also the proud owner of a well trained golden retriever, so I know how to manage play, feeding, and rest routines. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine. Whether it's walks, feedings, or just spending quality time, I'm available throughout the day and can adapt to your pet’s needs. Weekends and evenings are open too, making me a reliable option for both regular care and last-minute requests. I prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I follow any feeding, medication, and walk routines closely and take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs. In my home, pets have a calm, secure environment with plenty of space to relax or play. I keep a close eye on interactions and make sure pets are never left unsupervised in unfamiliar situations. You can count on consistent updates and total transparency while your pet is with me.

“Carla and her husband did an awesome job of caring for our beloved bulldog when we were on vacation. He has a lot of energy, but they had no difficulty taking care of him. In fact, he has been calmer since he returned home. I highly recommend Carla and we plan on using her again should the need arise!”


“Will was great with my high energy dog, made sure he had plenty of time outside and kept him comfortable throughout the stay. I appreciated the updates and pictures, highly recommend.”


“Victoria and Chris took such good care of our Poppy girl for an extended overnight trip. She got along great with their dog Loki too! They were super helpful especially since this was our first time using Rover and leaving Poppy with non family members. I felt Poppy was in great hands and was able to relax while out of town. I highly recommend Victoria and Chris and if we ever need someone to care for Poppy while we’re away they will be our first choice.”


“Kamoy was amazing with Sophie. She stayed in communication and made sure Sophie felt safe and comfortable. 10/10. Sophie even hugged her goodbye! I would absolutely book Kamoy again for doggy care. I highly recommend.”


“5 Stars - Highly Recommended! I recently had the pleasure of hiring Daniel to take care of my dog , and I couldn’t be happier with the care, it was clear that he genuinely loves animals and has natural way with dogs. Throughout the entire time I was away, I was provided regular updates, including photos. I highly recommend Daniel for anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”


“JoJo was so well looked after while we were away. I could see how comfortable and happy she was in every photo we received. Truly grateful to Thomas and Jessica for their excellent care. Such a relief to know JoJo was in good hands and that they would like to have her again.”
