“Miki took care of Kira as if she was her own, and did everything she could to make sure Kira had a good time. She also updated us with photos every day. We would love to use her again if we need a petsitter.”
About: I love animals and have a consistently dog-sat animals from 8 pounds to 90 pounds. I treat my clients animals like they are my own! Lots of walks and baths if needed! References can be given upon request :) I am currently a teacher so my weeknights are free after 4pm, and I have availability on weekends. I will have afternoons and weekends available during the summer (After June 20th). My summer school schedule is still being finalized, and I will update as quick as possible! During the summer I would be able to give potty breaks every 4-6 hours versus the school year when I am not home from 8-4. I have a partially fenced yard with no other animals around. I live in an apartment but there is a separate guest room so that animals can have some extra room!
“Blue had a great time and this sitter let us come by several days and take Blue out for a walk because we were in town. We forgot our dog bowls, and when we dropped by to get them a couple weeks later our dog went crazy with excitement because he thought he was getting dropped off again for a visit. He was very disappointed that we were not leaving him for a visit.”
“Brian's place has a nice, big fenced in yard...a real treat for our dogs! Brian was very professional. We hope to use his service again soon!”
“Kelly is awesome. My pup was pretty nervous since was her first time in boarding. Kelly was super patient with her, built trust and before I knew it my dog was having a great time. We received several fun updates throughout the day, which was great to see. I highly recommend Kelly!”
“Cherie truly saved the day for us! Our original pet sitter canceled less than 2 hours before our drop-off time on the night before Thanksgiving, and we were in a panic since we were traveling to see family. Cherie stepped in without hesitation, and we couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment we met Cherie and her family, we knew Apollo was in great hands. They were so welcoming and caring, and Apollo seemed right at home. Cherie went above and beyond to make sure Apollo was well taken care of, sending us regular updates with pictures that showed how happy and relaxed he was. Knowing he was receiving such fantastic care allowed us to enjoy our holiday with peace of mind. We could tell Cherie genuinely cared for Apollo as if he were her own. I can’t recommend her enough—she’s reliable, attentive, and has such a warm heart for animals. Thank you, Cherie, for making what could have been a stressful situation into a positive experience! 🐾”
“Communication and care we're excellent - she loves dogs and was the perfect choice for our pup. Will definitely book with her next time we're out of town!”
“This is our second time using Stevie and she always goes above and beyond for us. She handles our BIG Saint Bernard so well, which is not always an easy tasks but he does sooooo well with her! We had an unexpected return flight cancelled and Stevie work with us and was extremely accommodating. We will definitely be using Stevie again and again.”
“I want Sharon to be my pups forever auntie. I have never boarded any of my dogs. I lost my boxer at the end of December 2002. I’ve always had dogs but as time passed I felt this sense of freedom that I’d never experienced before. I booked a 7 day trip to Nashville. I had no responsibilities so why not right? 3 months before the trip (November 4th 2023) I went to an adoption event and came home with a very scared Texas pup. Sharon took him several times before our trip so that he could get to know her. He is not easy to say the least. She was great with him. While we were away she sent me daily messages and pictures. She kept reassuring me that he was doing great and telling me to enjoy myself when I would tell her I couldn’t wait to get home to him. When we returned to get him he wanted to stay with her. When we got outside to leave he ran back inside with her. Sharon had big smile she again reassured me that it happens sometimes. I am so lucky to have found Sharon and will 100% recommend her to everyone.”
About: I trained my dog Moose 100% myself. He plays well with other dogs and we go for walks 3 times a day. He has experience bunking with other dogs, as we watch over a rescue named Coco from time to time. Morning walk and breakfast, then I go to work and come home around lunch time for a walk, then after work walk and dinner. Even when its raining we will play games around the house Lots of attention, exercise and love. I follow directions very well and can give special care if needed for certain diets or ailments. Plus my dog Moose loves friends.
“Haili was terrific. She took great care of our two dogs, one of which is super high energy. I loved the photo and video updates. Will definitely use her again. Highly recommend.”
“We felt very comfortable leaving our dog Harper with Christina and Matt when we were away for the weekend of our daughter’s wedding. It was the first time Harper had ever stayed with anyone other than family and we weren’t sure how she would be in an unfamiliar place with another dog. It was obvious when we went for a meet and greet that Christina is a dog lover and Harper warmed up to her quickly. They have a great dog friendly yard and we received plenty of updates to let us know that she was doing fine. She definitely got plenty of exercise and a lot of love. Christina was understanding about Harper’s separation anxiety and was willing to accommodate her. We will definitely be repeat clients!”
“Delilah had a great weekend with Emily! Thank you for taking such good care of Golden. She slept for the whole first day she was home, which is a sign of a good time.?”
“Lindsey is a lifesaver! I moved to Newport yesterday. My initial plans to care for my dog fell through. At last minute notice, she picked up my dog and cared for her over night, dropping her off again this morning. She took Bella for a really nice walk along the Cliffwalk, and sent me pictures. Bella seemed very happy and content. Lindsey was very responsive and extremely flexible. 10/10 would use Lindsay again.”
“Yunshu and her family are absolutely amazing. They treated my dog like it was their own and stayed in great communication with me so I knew how he was doing. I would highly recommend having Yunshu watch your dog!”

“Isabel & family are absolutely adorable! They took in my CoCo and treated her as though she was family. The special attention given by her children was heartfelt. The attention to detail in such a caring manner made me feel extremely comfortable boarding CoCo with Isabela. She is wonderful, caring and an absolute gem!!!”
“I'm fortunate to have found Celina when I needed a pet sitter for the weekend! It was a pleasure meeting them, as they were kind and understanding when I expressed my concerns about Otto and leaving him in a new environment. I liked that they spend the time to get to know me and my pup before committing. Smokey is also a great pup, he's so sweet and clever and it was great watching him adapt his play with Otto. It's also clear that Celina and Smokey have a great relationship and love each other a bunch. They do great with establishing boundaries and advocating for the pups when it's needed. Celina also sent me photos of Otto's stay, which were all adorable to see! Communication was easy and simple, which I'm very appreciative of. Overall, it was a great experience working with them and I will definitely book again :)”

2. Noel H.
“I have been fortunate enough to know Noël for a few years now. I have the pleasure of working with her in the educational field servicing young children. Noël is responsible, kind, intelligent, and extremely punctual. I have a 50 pound Pittie mix who is a very big baby. I was stuck for a dog sitter and talking about it at work. Noël stepped up and said she would love to meet my dog and help care for him. For the two of them, it was love at first sight! She walked my dog daily, exercised him in the yard, and even took pictures of him to send to me while I was on vacation. She is my number one “go- to” whenever I am out of town. My sister also hires Noël to care for her two little Maltese dogs. I trust her implicitly and would highly recommend her! Your fur baby will be lucky to meet her.”
