9. Leyla A.
“Leyla is such a delight to work with. She gives me a peace of mind whenever I need to go on a trip. She is absolutely loving and responsible, and great at communication. Since I’ve started working with Leyla I am more at ease when I need to leave town, knowing that my cat is in good care. She has also been kind enough to cat sit for me a few times super last minute and has made my life so much easier because of it. I’d recommend her to any loving pet parent.”

11. Brenda C.
About: I've had a Chihuahua, German Shepard, Labrador and an English Bulldog growing up. I am comfortable around all breeds/ sizes. I am a patient person and very responsible! I have plenty of time to check on your pet either during the day or night time. Please send me a message. 💗 🐕 😊 I will make sure your pet feels safe. Has everything they need. Will make sure to tidy up and keep them entertained or relaxed 😌


12. William V.
About: I was raised in a household with two dogs and multiple cats. I have also dog sat many times in the past for friends and family. I love being outside and will treat your animals as if they were my own. I am a recently graduated medical student awaiting my residency start date in July. With that being said, my schedule is currently completely open to care for animals. I figured it was a great way to make some extra money while also getting in exercise/sunlight. I will never put your animals in an endangering situation. I can recognize animal body language and will ensure that your animal is always happy and stress-free when with me.


13. Sara G.
“Sara is an absolute gem—our go-to dog sitter and walker for our two boys (a lovable bulldog and a sweet basset hound)! From the moment we met her, we knew our pups were in the best hands. She’s incredibly communicative and sends us adorable photo updates the entire time she’s with them, which gives us so much peace of mind. What really sets Sara apart is how present she is with our dogs. She’s not just showing up—she’s truly engaging with them, making sure they’re happy, active, and not just sitting around bored. She’s especially patient with our basset, who struggles with separation anxiety, and she always goes the extra mile by sending extra photos of him just to help comfort us while we’re away. On top of all of this, Sara is super affordable (honestly, too affordable for the level of care she provides). Part of me hesitated writing this review because she’s our best-kept secret—but she deserves all the recognition. If you’re lucky enough to book her, your pups will be in the best hands possible!”


14. Beray Z.
“We love Beray!! And so does our Boston Terrier Daisy!! Beray loves animals and cares for them so well. 10/10 recommend and trust her fully with our dog.”


15. Lucy S.
“I've known Lucy since elementary school and her family have a lot of pets. I know she'll be a great pet caregiver because she grew up loving animals and they're like family to her. Most of her pets are dogs, cats and turtles. When she moved she had to give them away to her relatives because the place she stayed at didn't allowed any pets. However, that only lasted one summer. After moving to her new place, her family got a German Sherpard and then a mixed dog for her to take care of because Lucy wanted her own pet. Lucy adores animals and taking care of them. She plays with them a lot, feed them well and talk to them like she would talk to her friends. Whenever I visit her, I always see her partner in crime (her dog) next to her. She's very responsible and loving which are great qualities for a pet caregiver. I would recommend Lucy to take care of anyone's pet because I've seen her always getting along with other people's pets even when they're strangers. She even took care of my aunt's pets when she had to leave town for a couple of weeks.”


16. Jill G.


“Jill took great care of my pup who’s still learning and getting used to walks. She took lots of pictures and gave me lots of details of what went on during the walk.”


17. Avery B.
“Never felt better taking a vacation with my husband and knowing our boy, Grogu was safe with Avery! Grogu has special eating needs and Avery took to him naturally and easily picked up our routine. Truly a wonderful experience!”

19. Dianna & Maria N.

“I was a little nervous about Waffles since we have never tried dog boarding before. But Dianna was really warm and welcoming throughout our meet and greet and they had an instant connection. Which is surprising since my dog isn’t very social. Throughout the stay Dianna sent so many pictures everyday and even took my Waffles to the beach! It was a really great experience for me and Waffles and will definitely be dog boarding with Dianna again! Thank you so much for being so sweet to my Waffles :)”

About: I’ve done brief dog sitting and walking over summers back home, I also have two dogs back at home as well so I am pretty good with everything your dog may need! I am a currently a freshman and college and looking to make so extra money, I am a full time student but my schedule allows me to care for pets every other day ! In my home our dogs are very spoiled , they get there own cooked meals, we go to parks , go on walks etc. They don’t stay in cages so there out and about all around the house and slept with me when I was back home.
