“Our Furbabies loved their stay with Jaylynne! This was our first time booking with her and she made us feel very at ease. She said daily updates and photos which we loved!!”

“Johnathan watched my fur babies for 5 days while I was at EDCLV, and he was seriously amazing! I was a little nervous about leaving them, but he totally put my mind at ease. He took such great care of them—feeding, playing, keeping them on their routine—and even sent me regular updates and cute pics, which I really appreciated while I was away. When I got back, the house was super clean, and my pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. It honestly felt like they didn’t even miss me that much (which is a good thing!). You can tell Johnathan genuinely loves animals and treats them like his own. If you ever need someone dependable and kind to look after your pets, I can’t recommend him enough. I’ll definitely be asking him to pet sit again in the future :)”

“Kristin was awesome! She came over to take care of our 4-month-old puppy on Halloween night and did a wonderful job. Punctual, personable, and dependable. Our pup was very well cared for. Would highly recommend!”

“Julia was a great house-sitter for us and our pets. Our dogs have a specific feeding and treat routine and Julia handled it all. Our home was clean when we came home, can barely tell she was here! Lots of photo updates for our peace of mind. Highly recommend Julia, will use her again.”

“Kaitie watched over my Shiba Inu, Sushi while I was out of town for a quick work event. Sushi was clearly very happy and in great care, she even dropped her off and picked her up from her regular weekly doggy daycare. I got daily update and adorable pictures.”

“Amy is always so great! She provides lots of updates and leaves the house clean after staying here. Our dog & two cats love her. We had a super last minute change in travel plans and Amy was flexible which was a lifesaver. Would definitely recommend!”

“Evelyn takes such good care of our dog, Suki! She is really attentive and sends us cute pics of our pup while we’re gone. We’re so grateful to have Evelyn watch Suki for us.”

“Evelyn was amazing. She sat for both of our pups during the holidays and kept us thoroughly informed throughout the booking. She left our apartment spotless and took excellent care of our two dogs. We have had previous sitters who left the pups alone for long stretches of time but Evelyn spent most/all of the booking actually with our dogs. I will highly recommend her!”

“Allison is great! From the moment that I reached out to her to stay with Toby, she has been so professional and sweet. Toby warmed up to Allison pretty quickly and I could tell he was happy and well taken care of. I love that Allison sent me so many pictures of Toby while I was on my trip because I did miss him a lot! Toby and I would be happy to have Allison stay over again!”

“Erika was so wonderful with my 12 year old pup Penny! She was very professional, sent regular updates, and has a lot of animal care experience/knowledge. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of caring for pets belonging to friends, family members, and coworkers over the years, which has given me a wide range of experience with animals, their personalities, and routines. I take pride in being someone others trust to care for their pets as if they were my own. What sets me apart is my dependable and detail-oriented approach, as well as my genuine love for animals. I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, providing extra playtime and cuddles, or maintaining a calm environment. My goal is to ensure that both pets and their owners feel confident and at ease, knowing their dog is in responsible, caring hands. I am currently working part-time (weekday nights and weekend day shifts). I am available for consistent care, Mondays through Fridays, from early mornings until mid-afternoon/evenings. I will care for pets in their home, as that is most familiar to them. I can either spend the nights if needed/preferred by the owner, or I can work in late-night and early-morning pop overs in addition to the mid-day walks and activities.
About: I grew up taking care of our family dog who was the best Mutt ever. She lived 16 beautiful long happy years. I don’t have any dogs of my own at the moment which means I can give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I have a hybrid work schedule and fairly flexible weekends right now. Especially if I know in advance and can plan for your pet, I will easily be able to accommodate. I show them love and attention while making sure they are physically very well taken care of. I personally live an active lifestyle and can easily bring them along with me if your pet has lots of energy or is used to lots of activity.
“Rayna was great with our dog and two cats and kept us updated on how things were going through her stay. We also appreciated that she was flexible when we needed to go out of town early. We will reach out to Rayna again in the future!”

“Madeline took great care of our pets and home. She sent pictures and updates throughout the stay and left the home neat. Our dog and cat love her. We will definitely use her again.”

About: Hi! I’m Delaney — a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs (puppies to 100+ lbs) and cats. I’m comfortable with medication, love both big walks and little snuggles, and will treat your pets like family. I lost my sweet dog of 11 years recently, so I truly cherish every moment with animals. I’d love to give your pets the same love and care! My schedule allows me the flexibility to drop in throughout the day and stay overnight when needed. I treat pet care as a priority, not something I squeeze in — making sure your pets stay happy, exercised, and loved while you’re away. A typical day with me is all about keeping pets happy, active, and comfortable. I love starting with a good walk to get tails wagging and energy out, or a play session for cats to keep them engaged. Throughout the day, I make sure pets get the essentials — fresh water, meals on time, bathroom breaks — along with plenty of love, attention, and cuddles. Whether it’s a quick visit or a longer walk, I always take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, cared for, and special.
“Florence was amazing with our puppy Ollie! He immediately felt comfortable with her and had a great day so we could go to an event with peace of mind. Would definitely book Florence again!”

About: I adopted my senior chihuahua at 10yrs old and have a special place in my heart for seniors. I can give medication and extra care for those dogs that require extra attention. I recently lost my dog and would love to care for other dogs. I work from home with a flexible schedule and usually done with work in the early afternoon. I can take dogs out for potty or walk breaks as often as needed. I have one senior dog at home that is fine around other dogs but likes to keep to himself and isn’t playful. He spends most of the day napping. Would prefer a dog meet up before a boarding booking.
