“Very grateful to Melissa for taking care of our Teddie girl. I felt completely at ease leaving her there knowing Melissa’s background and how she has such a big heart for taking care of dogs with needs as well. We also received photos of Teddie throughout the days and she looked so happy playing with the other dogs there. Thank you again Melissa! We appreciate you greatly.”


“Gen was very accommodating by taking Winston and gave me updates the entire time. I knew the whole time Winston was safe, and was well taken care of. I will be booking w/ Gen again the next time I go away!”

“John is amazing my Moses fit right in and I knew he was well taken care of . Not one time did I have to ask for pics or updates, John was on point with that. My Moses stayed with John over 2 weeks and I have booked him again. John gave meds to Moses ear and eyes and did great. I highly recommend John as he will give your pet plenty of attention and peace of mind!!!”

They provided exceptional care for our puppy while we attended a wedding Our pet “gigi” was happy, Marcela went above and beyond, sending us regular updates and photos to give us peace of mind.

About: For the comfort and safety of every pup, I only host one family’s dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog my full attention and maintain a calm, low stress environment. My care goes beyond the basics. it’s rooted in genuine love and experience. My journey caring for Kayne, our special needs dog, taught me how to handle medical routines, provide comfort, and stay attentive to every detail. That experience shaped my approach to every pet I welcome. I understand that each animal deserves patience, respect, and love. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, they’ll always be treated like family in our home. Pet care is woven into my daily life and something I genuinely love. As a stay at home mom, I’m home full time to give every furry friend constant love and attention. Our days revolve around walks, playtime, and snuggles. Caring for our late dog, Kayne, who developed a spinal injury and heart condition, taught me that true care takes patience, compassion, and adaptability qualities I bring to every pet I meet. In our home, every animal is treated like family. I provide a clean, safe, and active space with multiple walks, a fenced yard for play, and individualized routines. Through my experience caring for Kayne, who required special medical attention, I learned how to adapt to any level of care whether it’s energetic puppies or older companions needing extra comfort. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands that treat them as one of our own.
“Sanji was so so happy and his very best! I really highly recommend Karol! She is someone you can definitely trust your dog and trust me they will have so much fun with her and her family. Sanji will be back soon for sure🥹❤️”

“We highly recommend Karyn and Patrick. Our dog has stayed with them whenever we go away on vacation and we never have any concerns about his care. They take him on many walks and prepare him special food and give him all the attention he needs. He always seems very content when he is there.”

“Cindy was super accommodating at the last minute! She made me feel very comfortable by sending frequent updates and photos. When i unpacked his bag i even had souvenir photos from his stay! I would definitely book Cindy again!”

About: I have been around dogs for over 40 years grew up with German shepherds my baby currently is 3 dog mom with big back yard. I currently work a set schedule very close to home no issues on your baby getting the breaks needed, teen daughter present to help too. I have a big fenced yard with dog houses available to house your fur baby just bring his or her bed or blanket and toy.
“First time using rover and was pleased with the care given to my dog, Ouzo. He’s an older dog who requires a little more attention these days and Merry and Lingling made sure he was taken care of. I received daily updates via texts as well as videos while in Europe, and my mind was at ease knowing how he was doing everyday.”

“Maria is the best! her and her husband love our dogs and take great care of them while we are away! her husky Pennie plays great with them, and shows them the ropes as they're still puppies and learning how to dog!”

“Kathryn was great! Very kind and easy going and very good to Lightning. He had a lot of fun playing with the other dogs - she knew how to introduce them. Lovely family too. Thank you so much Kathryn!!! Will definitely book again.”

About: As a dog parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pup. I’m a dedicated pet sitter with three years of volunteer experience at an animal shelter, where I worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I’m comfortable handling everything from playful puppies to calm senior dogs, and I tailor each walk and visit to your dog’s individual needs. I’m very detail-oriented and experienced in following specific feeding instructions, medication routines, and behavioral guidelines. Whether your dog needs structured walks, extra patience, or lots of affection, I’m committed to providing safe, dependable, and loving care while you’re away. Pet care is a very important part of my daily routine. I have both a dog and a cat of my own, so caring for pets is already built into my day. I work part-time, which gives me flexibility to focus on walks, visits, feeding schedules, and quality time with each pet to ensure pets receive consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I care for pets using the experience I gained from three years of volunteering at an animal shelter, where I worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels, as well as cats with different personalities and needs. I tailor my care to each pet to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard that allows dogs to safely play, exercise, and relax outdoors. I also have two friendly pets who can provide gentle companionship, helping visiting pets feel more at ease in a calm, welcoming environment. I focus on creating the most comfortable and enjoyable experience possible for every pet. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I closely follow feeding instructions, medication routines, and any special care guidelines. My goal is to provide attentive, compassionate care while giving pet parents peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.
“Natalia is the best! She treats our fur baby like her baby. She has been our sitter for just about 2 years and she is awesome. This weekend, she attended a Halloween party with our yorkie and put her in costume too!! She was so cute. If you are having reservations about booking Natalia, DON’T!! Go ahead and make that reservation.”

“Daniel was amazing. He sent us pictures and videos while we were away and was very quick to respond. From our meet and greet to drop off and pick up, you can tell He truly cares for animals. Our dog Finn had such a great time. We highly recommend!”
“Jenna did a really good job with our little one! She kept us updated both days and the photos were just the cutest ever, we can tell he had so much fun and was really well taken care of. Thank you for keeping him calm at night when he couldn’t sleep and got a little nervous, you really did an amazing job ❤️”
