Pet care experience

Double the Love, Double the Care :)

We’re Cecilia and James, a dog-loving married couple who’ll treat your pup as part of our family so you can have an amazing and worry-free time away :) We have 2 dogs of our own, Mushi and Nemo, who’ll be your pup’s roomies for the petsit. Our dogs are super sweet, easygoing and have been very socialized to all shapes and sizes of dogs over their lives — they love furry friend sleepovers :) We live in a spacious and cozy home in a very quiet neighborhood so your pup will feel right at home. We each have 10+ years of dog care experience. As pet parents, we strive to be the ideal, no-stress sitter we’d hire for our own dogs on a trip away: highly-communicative, responsible, send lots of updates + photos/videos, and love visiting pups like family. We have had some not so great experiences with some sitters in the past, so we know exactly what makes pet parents worry while they’re away from their pups. **We can also video chat so you can see and talk to your pup while you are away :) We’re both also deeply passionate about dog welfare: we have transported dogs across the country to rescues, helped re-home dogs, and taken care of sick and injured dogs. Dogs are so very dear to our hearts and our dream one day is to open a dog sanctuary somewhere in the world where all dogs there can be safe, healthy, and happy. 💙

Jax felt right at home with Cecelia, James, Mushie and Nemo! Such a sweet family! They did an amazing job with our boy Jax and made him feel right at home. They sent amazing pics daily and took him to the park and on adventures several times during his stay! We knew he was in great hands and didn’t stress for a second about his care while we were out of town. 5 stars all around!

Cecilia and James were great! Our dog had a wonderful time with them and we enjoyed the daily updates, pictures, and videos. They were great at accommodating our needs and being flexible when our return flight got delayed. Highly recommend these two!

Cecilia & James were fantastic with my super anxious pup! They have such a calm and understanding approach, which made all the difference. They really know how to handle different dog personalities and behaviors, and my dog felt completely at ease with them. It’s clear they genuinely love dogs, and any pup would be so happy to spend time with them. I couldn’t have asked for better care and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, attentive, and reliable pet sitters!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Cecelia! She is an absolute gem when it comes to taking care of my beloved dogs, Piper and Milo. Cecelia treats them with the utmost care, love, and attention, as if they were her own pets. Her ability to manage Piper and Milo with such ease and affection truly sets her apart. From the moment Cecelia began caring for my dogs, I noticed how comfortable and happy they were in her presence. Her genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does, and it is evident in the way she interacts with them. Cecelia goes above and beyond to ensure that Piper and Milo are not only well taken care of but also feel loved and cherished. I have complete peace of mind knowing that Cecelia is looking after my pups, since they were only four months old. Her dedication and passion are truly remarkable. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets with the highest level of care and affection, Cecelia is the perfect choice! Thank you, Cecelia, for being such an amazing caregiver to Piper and Milo. You have exceeded all expectations, and I am incredibly grateful for everything you do!

Cecilia is a warm, caring person who has an innate gift for connecting with all dogs, and who treats all dogs with the same love and attention as if they were her own. My dog warmed up to her immediately, and now gets excited as soon as he gets a whiff that she's coming over. As a devoted dog-mom to two sweet dogs (who are now my dog's best friends), she is both experienced in and passionate about taking care of dogs. If you're looking for a reliable and loving dogsitter, you've found the right person!
