“We cannot recommend Lori and Frank more highly. This was Daisy’s very first time with a pet sitter, and as a rescue pup she can be a bit nervous in new situations. From the moment we met them, Lori and Frank immediately made her feel comfortable—not just with them, but also with their wonderful adult children. They took exceptional care of Daisy and truly made her part of their family. Thanks to their calm, loving environment, Daisy even gained the confidence to make a new doggy friend with another pet guest during her stay, which meant so much to us. We loved receiving regular updates and photos, and it was clear every step of the way that Daisy was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Leaving your dog for the first time is never easy, but Lori and Frank made the entire experience completely stress-free. We are so grateful for the love and attention they gave Daisy and would trust them again without hesitation.”

After our dog’s first stay with her, we immediately booked our next one with her because of how great she is. Our dog is clearly so much happier staying with Bianca than when we used to take her to the kennel. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I can befriend even the most skittish of pets and will love them as if they were my own. I work from home so having a companion is wonderful. I live across the street from a park, can take breaks when I want, and have a pet friendly balcony for all day fresh air. I live alone and with my young adult kids. Our dog of almost 17 years transitioned a few years ago so we all love having a dog around. I also do cat sitting and home sitting as well.

“Siena was the absolute DREAM of a pet sitter. I had to travel for work for an entire week and I was so sad to leave my puppy girl. Siena took her on walks to the beach, socialized her with other dogs and friendly people, and sent photo updates for me every night. Sierra (my dog) was so happy to spend time with Siena and her friends and right of the bat she was comfortable in their home. I’d highly recommend Siena she was AWESOME - even with all of my particular dog mom requests. Cannot thank you enough! We’ll definitely continue to use Siena for future puppy stays.”

Melissa and her husband were absolute lifesavers! They took our dog, Atlas, on very short notice and provided exceptional care. Atlas returned home super happy and well-rested. Communication was seamless throughout the stay, and Melissa sent constant updates and photos that kept us at ease. We highly recommend her!

Mariia and Ethan were just flat out fantastic! They immediately sent pics, videos, and written updates about my dog. Each time they were showing or stating where they were, what they were doing, and how he was responding. They did this morning, mid day and evening. It was comforting to me for having that while I was away. But the literal SMILE on my dog’s face said it all. They were so caring, thoughtful and detailed in his care as well. The added bonus was my meatball dog was returned fit, calm and happy. I could not give a higher recommendation. Will definitely be using them as my go to. They are wonderful!
