“We had another great experience leaving our dog with Jared! He noticed she had a medical issue and offered to take her to the vet. We were coming home anyway and were able to take her and it turned out he was totally correct in his diagnosis! Jared saved the day. Plus the dog had a great time staying with him, as usual. Thanks, Jared!”

“I highly recommend Stephen! He was easy to work with, responsive and caring towards our pup Ginny while we were away. We got regular updates including pictures and videos. He was also flexible with drop off and pick up times which helped reduce the overall stress of traveling. We look forward to having Ginny visit him again soon!”

About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family — with patience, consistency, and genuine love. I don’t just “watch” dogs; I connect with them. Whether it’s a playful pup full of energy or a senior dog needing a calm, gentle touch, I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs. I have experience caring for kittens, senior cats, and sphynx breeds (yes, I know how much love and maintenance they need 🐾). I keep things clean, calm, and consistent — following your exact feeding and litter routines, giving meds if needed, and keeping their favorite spots cozy and familiar. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and cozy space with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention. I make sure feeding, potty breaks, and walks happen on schedule, and I always keep an eye on hydration, mood, and comfort.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have been caring for them for as long as I can remember. Friends and family regularly rely on me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their dogs when they’re away. I’m comfortable with different personalities, ages, sizes, and routines, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule and am available through the week and weekends, with varying availability throughout the mornings and afternoons which can depend on you or your dogs schedule and routine. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my clients’ homes, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get proper exercise, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’m happy to follow specific instructions for walks, playtime, medications, or special care. When caring for pets in my home, I maintain a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I prioritize consistency, supervision, and regular potty breaks, along with playtime and rest. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

“Katrina was great! Very flexible with drop off and pick up and she sent lots of pictures. Definitely recommend!”

Kelly N.

“I left for vacation and had to leave my kitty, Riott, behind, and I’m so grateful I found Katarina. She was absolutely amazing with him and made him feel right at home. She gave him lots of love, paid close attention to his needs, and treated him so well. She also kept me updated every day with adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It felt so reassuring knowing Riott was with someone who genuinely cared about him and knew how to take care of him. I will definitely book with Katarina again!”

About: I was raised with dogs all my life and frequently take care of my friends dogs while they are away. I understand the body language of dogs and what they are trying to express without really expressing it . I love dogs and would be happy to take care of yours with love while you are away and send you videos and pictures and even face time if you need too ! I believe that dogs have feeling and miss you just as much as you miss them ! I can provide a safe and happy place while you are not around to take care of your puppy and I promise they will be happy and safe and loved. I will be a good puppy nanny to you loved one! I am my own boss so I make my own schedule . I can stay home and work , I can come home and walk your dogs randomly all day . I have a fenced in yard and a large fenced in field near me . I am also close to the beach and can take them for a beach walk . I love throwing a ball or snuggling whatever your pet needs .

About: I have been pet sitting for over 5 years and grew up on a farm around horses, dogs, and cats. I have a passion for boarding dogs and making a dog feel safe and at home with me while their owners are away. I am highly active myself and love having a dog join me on my daily walks throughout the day. I love making new friends with the dogs and the clients I get! I work part-time right now, and I try to schedule my day care, boarding, and walks around my work schedule. I like to be one-on-one with your dogs, so I can focus most of my attention on one dog at a time. I have a fenced yard at my house, and I like to offer about three walks per day, depending on your dog's exercise needs. I will make time for exercise, playing, and downtime inside with me or crate time, which I can offer depending on the needs of the animals. I offer in-home stays, and I am also willing to travel short distances if you need someone to live-in with your pet.

“Cali's stay with Beverly was everything I could have wished for. Cali stayed with Beverly for 7 days/ nights. We were renting a house only about 7 minutes away so we visited Cali often. Cali just turned 1 last week, and has only been with us for about 6 weeks prior to staying with Beverly. Cali is a rescue and is very energetic as well as still not trained off leash. She also tries to eat everything in sight, including socks, etc. Needless to say, I was a bit worried about leaving her but can emphatically say that Bev took excellent care of her and was also so generous with her time in terms of letting us drop in and visit, etc. Bev is a true animal lover having had horses and dogs all her life and currently takes care of her 30 year old donkey and her chickens. On some of the days Bev was watching another, similarly aged and energetic puppy. Cals enjoyed the play time and despite having her hands full, Bev took great care of them both. I liken Cali's stay with Bev to a child returning from summer camp -- happy to be home, but truly had a wonderful time as well as coming home a little more "grown up" and well mannered. I highly recommend Beverly to anyone looking for someone to take excellent care of their canine baby.”
