A Puppy’s New Best Friends

Pet care experience

I love house sitting and pet sitting because my husband and I have a flexible business that allows us to travel anywhere. I have lived with and watched after animals of many kinds, but mostly your typical domestic animals (cats, dogs, fish). I am also a successful gardener at home so I’d be happy to care for your plants while you’re away. I’ve been obsessed with dogs and cats since I was 6 years old and have cared for them/lived with them consistently for the past 25 years. The excellent care that I give to animals includes frequents walks, baths, extra treat snacks (if allowed), and tons of belly rubs and cuddles. My husband and I also have years of experience caring for senior dogs within our family and administering their medications.

Our 101 pound Doberman loved these guys! They did a fantastic job getting him to the dog park and keeping an eye on him. They sent us pictures and videos daily and you could see he was having a blast. It made our trip much more fun since we weren’t worried about the dog.

As a dog owner, I can't express enough how grateful I am to Sarah and Alvin for watching over my puppy Mia for the second time. They truly went above and beyond to ensure Mia's comfort and happiness while I was away. From the moment they arrived, Mia's tail was wagging non-stop, indicating her excitement to see them again. It was clear that she formed a strong bond with them during her previous sitting. Sarah and Alvin were incredibly attentive to Mia's needs, providing her with plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. They even sent me regular updates and photos, which eased my mind and allowed me to fully present at work. When I arrived home, Mia was happy and fully ready for bed. I highly recommend their services to any pet owner looking for trustworthy and loving caregivers for their furry friends.

Fantastic Dog Sitter Couple - Highly Recommend! Not only did they provide excellent care, but they also tailored their approach to meet my puppy's specific needs, including feeding schedules, and playtime. Upon our return, my puppy was not only content but seemed to have formed a special bond with Sarah and Alvin, which speaks volumes about the level of care and attention they provide. I recommend them to anyone in need of trustworthy and loving dog sitters. I will definitely be returning customers!

Information Sarah & Alvin H. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for us to know their diets, their temperaments, their favorite toys, what comforts them in case of a storm, allergies, and their level of training.

A typical day

We absolutely love to get the dogs some fresh air so we will take them to local dog beaches or dog parks and bring along their favorite sentimental toys if needed. We like to play hands on with the dog and play classic games like fetch and other chasing games, if the dog has that much energy.
