“Bella has a way with dogs that I haven’t seen in anyone I know. My dog is quite antisocial but Bella got her to warm up to her quickly and became one of my dog’s favorite people. She listens to and respects my dog’s boundaries and is the perfect mixture of responsible and caring.”

3. Camille B.

“Camille is the first Rover I had for our new puppy. I warned her about the teething/nipping, and she accepted the challenge graciously. I was very anxious about a lunch drop in for Paddington, but her calming energy reassured me that he would be in great hands. She sent pictures, videos, and updates. She is sweet, attentive, and professional. We will have her back again soon. Thank you Camille for your excellent care!”

About: I love dogs, I’ve grown up with them, and have raised a total of 3 dogs in my lifetime. I know how to treat them properly and have the right energy and approach towards them. I will also accommodate any needs whether it be medication administration, bathing/grooming etc! I am an active person and will walk your dog as many times as requested. I live across the street from the park and go on frequent jogs/walks there. I have a small dog of my own and she gets along well with other dogs. I work from home full time and am available to be fully attentive to your pet. I personally walk my own dog 2-3 times a day. My home has ample space for your pet. If your pet is crate trained, you are more than welcome to bring it. I have a small patio space that is also available if your pet would like to be outside to sunbathe like my own dog does. I have a bath tub and may groom your dog for a fee

11. Madeline P.
“Maddie is an amazing human and an exceptional dog sitter! She has been taking care of my 7 year old shepherd beagle mix, Lexie and I couldn’t be happier. Lexie is always well-walked, fed, and showered with love every time I am away. I trust Maddie completely, and I honestly don’t go to anyone else. She loves Lexie like she’s one of her own, and that peace of mind is priceless. Maddie goes above and beyond to make sure Lexie is safe and comfortable at all times. She’s incredibly responsible and always attentive to any special needs Lexie may have. You can tell Maddie truly cares for every pup she looks after. She’s not only professional, but also kind-hearted and genuine. I truly recommend Maddie to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and loving dog sitter!”

“Our dog Peach is getting old and she not only has anxiety but also digestive problems that have made boarding her at a kennel or taking her with us when we travel impossible. Enter Kirsten- she babysat Peach so well and attentively that we can’t imagine asking anyone else to do it ever again. Kirsten handled our dog’s special dietary and walk requirements, gave her lots of snuggles and even texted us pictures to let us know how much fun Peach was having. Highly recommend Kirsten- she is our top favorite!”

About: I’m an experienced pet owner that is happy to help look after your fur family while you’re away! I know how stressful trips and long hours at the office can be when you know you have Fido at home alone. I’ve run my own dog walking and pet sitting business, and truly love caring for animals. I currently have two dogs myself and have fostered dogs this past year for multiple rescues. Growing up my family had a pack of 6 dogs, 2 cats, 4 horses and an assortment of other smaller animals... so I’m comfortable around all kinds! I am currently in training with both my dogs to get them AKC therapy dog certified, they have both achieved AKC Canine Good Citizen certification. I’ll use this training to help walk and care for your pets! Your pups are in good hands!


17. Valerie M.

“"Valerie was absolutely amazing with our 16-year-old chihuahua, Rudy, while we were away on vacation. She took the time to pre-visit and meet him, which showed her dedication and care. Rudy is a grumpy old man who’s slow to warm up to new people, but Valerie’s patience and kindness won him over. She kept us informed during her visits, sent pictures, and asked questions as needed, which gave us great peace of mind. She was punctual, attentive, and went above and beyond. We’ll definitely be calling her again next time we leave!"”


18. Emily B.

“Emily is amazing!! She went out of her way before my trip to stop by and familiarize herself with feeding instructions and to also try to get my cats used to her. During my trip she kept me updated with their feedings and litter box usage and also sent pictures for each visit. She really went out of her way the whole time to make sure my cats were well taken care and and that I was comfortable leaving them in her hands. She is on time, professional, and a kind and caring person. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
