From the meet and greet to the stay next day, Kajal was very warm, friendly and caring towards Romeo. She made us very comfortable to leave our little one with her. Kajal made sure she sent us pictures and videos and kept us upto date with him. I know Romeo was in good and trusted hands and would definitely leave Romeo with her in the future.

Alice is great with my special needs senior dog Porter. He is happy every time he sees her, and she is very responsible with catering to his special needs, allergies and medical conditions. She is very communicative and lets me know any changes observed in Porter during his stay, plus sends cute pictures regularly. I trust her with my deaf/blind senior completely.

We needed a last minute sitter while traveling to New Jersey and Dhruvit and his family were such a blessing. They accepted right away and they were flexible even when we ran a bit behind on pick up. They sent photos often which always puts me at ease and my Melo came back to me happy.

About: I’ve supported pet owners by providing reliable care that focuses on routine, safety, and comfort. I’ve worked with pets of varying energy levels and personalities and understand how consistency, patience, and clear communication help animals feel at ease while away from their owners. My availability allows me to dedicate consistent time throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. I plan my day carefully to ensure pets receive dependable attention without feeling rushed or overstimulated. I prioritize clear routines, secure spaces, and careful supervision. I follow instructions exactly as provided, keep environments clean, and remain observant of behavior changes so pets stay safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.

This was my first time ever leaving Ella with someone other that pet boarding (at a facility) or family. Berthie was amazing with Ella. He was consistent in his communication while Ella was in his care and eased any concerns that I had. Ella had a great time! I will definitely book with Berthie again.

We left Cody for a few hours of daycare and had such a positive experience. The sitter had great communication before and during the stay, and even sent a video update which I really appreciated. It’s always reassuring to see your pup having fun! Cody came home happy and completely worn out — the best combo. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for babysitting my dogs. You're such a kind and wonderful person; since I am deaf, I really appreciate your patience and the notes or texts you wrote to communicate. You're very friendly, and your daughter also took great care of my two dogs. God bless you all.

We are beyond grateful to James and Teri for looking after our pup Kira on such short notice! 🐾 From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in the best hands. They truly are the most amazing people on the planet so warm, kind, and clearly passionate about dogs. Throughout our time away (we were at a wedding), they sent us so many adorable videos and updates, which completely put our minds at ease and let us enjoy the day knowing Kira was happy and loved. It honestly felt like she was part of their family! Kira got along so well with all their lovely dogs it was like a little doggy vacation for her! 🐶✨ She was showered with love, cuddles, and playtime, and we could tell she had the best time ever. We couldn’t recommend James and Teri more highly. If you’re looking for sitters who will love your dog like their own, don’t hesitate they are absolute gems. Thank you both a million times over! 💕🐾

I couldn’t be happier with the care April provided for my dog, Dodo! She took time to schedule a meet and greet with me ahead of time to make sure my pup would get along with hers so she could have the best experience possible and from the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving Dodo in her hands. April is warm, attentive, and clearly has a deep love for animals. Dodo came home happy, well-exercised, and clearly loved — it was obvious she had a great time at her care. Would definitely recommend her to other pup parents!
