“Grace was fantastic! She was available last minute and was very accommodating to our changing plans! She ( and her kids) were so welcoming our dog Wrigley. They were so loving and playful. They sent updates and pictures everyday! We will for sure be reaching out again in the future!”


“Amy and Lamar are beyond caring and treated our dog like he was one of their own. From the second we walked through the door, they went above and beyond to make sure our dog felt comfortable and was having fun! They provided updates with pictures throughout his stay and made sure he had the time of his life! They are responsive, professional, and trustworthy. I look forward to booking with Amy and Lamar in the future. I cannot recommend them enough!”


“This was the first time used Rover in many years, and first time with my current pup Gibby. I was a bit nervous leaving him with people we'd just met but my worry was wasted. Rizwan, Noor and their family took great care of my pup. He was walked multiple times a day, was showered with pets and was able to monitor their neighborhood from a perfect viewing spot. They kindly welcomed him (us) into their home for a very comfortable stay. Thank you Noor and Rizwan for taking such good care of Gibby.”


“Julie is fantastic with dogs. She takes great care of Harlie, as if she were her own. Her sweet Pug Daisy is such a lovely companion for my dog. Such a great dog sitter!”


About: I have had a dog since I was a child and cannot imagine life without a pet! My experience in Pet care comes from taking care of my dogs and the dogs of my friends and family. I am looking forward to taking care of your beloved pet in our home! I am a kindergarten teacher that works 10 min from home. If a pup needs to go out at lunch time - that is an easy thing to do. I am home right around 4 every day to walk and feed as needed. I have a fenced in backyard for the pups to run around. I have an 8 yr old labradoodle that is friendly with and around other dogs.

“We definitely recommend Diane! She is warm, inviting and sensitive to our dog's needs. She kept in touch with us to let us know that all was going well. It is obvious that she cares for dogs a great deal!”


“Bear had a wonderful time with Diane he played with all her stuffed animals he had other for babies to play with she sent me videos of him playing she is absolutely amazing we will definitely use her again I felt very comfortable leaving him with her! I highly recommend Diane I am very particular about who watches my lil Bear”


“Tatiana was wonderful! Her kind and calm demeanor put my dog Luna at ease (she is older and can be a little bit nervous around new people). She also was diligent in sending me photos and updates every day—I didn’t have great cell service while I was gone, so whenever I could connect was comforting to see pictures of her without even having to ask for them! I would definitely leave Luna with her again and highly recommend her.”


“Laura and Vladimir were wonderful! They are so warm and true dog lovers. They took such good care of our puppy. They sent pictures and updates everyday. We will definitely use them again! Can’t say enough positive things about them. Highly recommend.”


“I can't recommend Mario enough for anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter! Mario watched my dog Dean for five days, and I couldn't be happier with the service he provided. He sent me daily pictures and videos of Dean, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Mario made sure Dean received his medication on time and gave him plenty of love and attention. I could tell that Dean was in good hands the whole time. Thank you, Mario, for your excellent care and professionalism. I will definitely be reaching out to you again in the future!”


“Freddy was well taken care of by Mike and Janet. We got plenty of pics and msgs about how Freddy was doing. We will definitely have Mike watch Freddy again when we leave town! Super nice people!!”


“Vicki is great! She is everything you'd want in a host - very responsive, flexible about timing for drop-off and pick-up, and a genuine animal lover. She sent adorable pictures of Titan during his stay and when I picked him up I could tell he had a great time! I will definitely use Vicki again to watch Titan and would absolutely recommend her to others!”


“Once again , Jax was able to spend time with Eileen and her adorable dogs. He is super blessed and happy and we are so so ever thankful for her support and help during his stay.”



“Tucker was loved, safe, exercised... and already misses Nikki and Denis’ house! It was a weight off our shoulders not having to worry about our pup while we were gone. I can’t thank them enough for the pictures, updates and wonderful house for Tucker. We appreciate it more than you know!!”


“Bob was wonderful! Truly so kind and patient with our dog! When we arrived our dog was crying from happiness to see us and Bob was so sweet that he picked her up to cuddle her and make her feel loved! Bob provided continuous updates and photos while we were away and it helped us feel comfortable enough to enjoy our vacation! Thank you so very much Bob! You are the best!”
