About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages—rambunctious puppies, playful adults, and sweet seniors. I previously owned my own dog and now work closely with domestic and wild animals at an animal shelter, where I’ve developed the ability to build trust with new pets quickly. My home is currently pet-free, so I’d be thrilled to host your dog and give them my full attention and affection. Whether your pup needs structured care, medication, or just extra belly rubs, I bring patience, intuition, and genuine love to every visit. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care throughout the day. I was recently laid off and now work limited hours outside of the house, so I spend most of my time at home. This makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle—I truly enjoy the companionship and having a pet around keeps my routine joyful and active. I'm able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs your pet may have. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and feel at ease. My home includes central air conditioning and heat to keep pets comfortable and safe during peak seasons, and there’s an elevator available for animals with mobility issues. I take time to build trust with each pet, follow their routines closely, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you're away. Your pet will be treated with the same love and care I’d give my own.


“I highly recommend Peiyi ( and Greg ) to take care of your precious pet. We had a wonderful experience. We just returned from a trip to Alaska and they took care of our pet Morkie. This is the first time a non-family member watched her, and they were very attentive and responsive to our communications while we were away for 10days. You can see that they care for the animals and enjoy having them. They sent pictures and videos every day so you can see your pet is doing well, and you have peace of mind while on vacation. We will definitely be using their services again.”


“Enjoli was wonderful and took amazing care of Mattie! She kept me updated with pictures and messages on how he was doing. I would totally use her service again. Thank you Enjoli!”


“Monica & Kelvin took excellent care of our dogs. They were incredibly prompt and responsive. They also provided daily updates and photos, which was highly appreciated. We will absolutely use them again without hesitation.”


About: Lifelong animal lover with experience from pups, kittens to senior dogs and even more recently deaf pets. Was raised with cats, dogs, and even reptiles. Pet care fits naturally into my life. Recently lost my 13yr old senior frenchie. I do work full-time weekdays but am available for evening feedings, walks, and weekend care. My 12 yr old son may be with me many times as this is also his passion. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s comfort and safety come first. In my home, while space is modest, I offer a clean, cozy environment with a secure fenced-in yard for play and potty breaks. I'm attentive and patient. I also have a 12 yr old son who can keep your pet active if needed. My son actively entertained our frenchie and provided those extra special hugs. There will always be room for love and play. In your home, I follow your pet's routine closely to keep them calm and happy while you're away.


“Charmaine was kind, professional and offered strong communication. This was a last minute request and she was accommodating, flexible, but still transparent about her schedule. Even though I wrote information down when booking her as a dog sitter, she still took the time to ask questions when we met.”


“We left our nine month old shihpoo, Kobe, for the first time while we were on vacation and I was so happy to receive photos and videos of him daily. I felt like he was on vacation too. He received so much love and attention, often seeing pictures of him snuggled in their arms. Kobe looked so happy playing with the other pups they were sitting for. Kobe was having so much fun I was worried he wouldn’t want to come back home. Alejandra and Graciela are passionate about dogs and you can see this by how they interact with each of the pets in their care. They love each one as their own. I couldn’t imagine leaving him with anyone else. I highly recommend Alejandra and Graciela.”


“Juan took great care of my puppy! I was very nervous to leave her for the first time for the weekend, but she did great. Juan provided updates and my puppy seemed to be happy and tired when I picked her up! I think she loved being with Juan’s dog, and the large back yard to play. I highly recommend Juan.”


“When I first brought my dogs to meet Liana, I immediately felt at ease. Upon leaving them with her, I knew instinctively that my babies would be well cared for. She treated them as her own, and sent daily updates and pictures. When I came to pick them up, the transition was smooth. I had dogs that were happy to see me, and maybe a little reluctant to leave because they were handled with such great care!”


“Katherine is very nice and I can see our Leo enjoyed his stay with her. He even looks like he misses her. She regularly sent us videos and we were at ease that we left him in good hands. We highly recommend her services.”


“Paola was incredibly sweet with our dog, Penny. She provided detailed updates and showed deep care and concern for Penny’s wellbeing. I would recommend Paola to take care of your furry friend!”


“Without question a great dog sitter, I would not hesitate to engage Laura again. My dog was taken for daily walks, hung out with the other dogs and I was sent regular updates and pictures, so necessary for a helicopter parent like me. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Trooper.”


“Our twelve year old chipoo had a wonderful stay with Rafaelina over the holidays. I could tell he was given lots of exercise, attention and love. We received several update pics and notes each day as well, which was very comforting. Highly recommended!”



“Kahlil and his wife provided exceptional care for our Coco while we were away on vacation. They maintained open communication, keeping us updated & informed with photos & videos on our dog’s well-being throughout our trip. We're very thankful for their professionalism and would highly recommend their services to others. We would definitely utilize their services again.”


About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I grew up on a farm where we had around ten dogs at a time, so I learned early on how to understand their needs, personalities, and how to make them feel safe and loved. From playful puppies to older dogs, I know how to handle each one with patience, care, and respect. Your dog will be treated like family, with the same attention and affection I’ve always given to my own. During the week, I’m usually available to care for dogs in the mornings. If you need care on the weekend, I kindly ask for a few days’ notice, as I sometimes have plans or may be out. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your needs and make sure your pup gets the attention they deserve! I have a spacious yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, though it’s not fenced, so I always keep them safe by walking them on a leash either in the yard or around my quiet neighborhood. I also have a small, friendly dog who gets along well with others, so your pup will have a gentle companion during their stay. I always make sure dogs are comfortable, safe, and well cared for—whether we’re out for a walk or relaxing at home.


“Finally, I've found a dog sitter that I trust. A friend recommended Tammy to us and now I will recommend Tammy to others. Tammy loves my dog as much (maybe even more) than we do...which is so cool and said with a smile 😁. She sends us great pics and most of all we don't have to worry when we are away...truly stress free!! The stories and photos she shares with us are GREAT! My dog Avalanche is HAPPY and she can't wait for her next sleepover!! No hesitation, no reservation...I recommend Tammy.”

Mia V.
“Mia is hands down the best dog walker and pet sitter we’ve ever had! From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like her own. She’s reliable, communicative, and incredibly kind — and our pets adore her! She takes our dog on long, enriching walks and always pays attention to his energy levels and behavior. When we’re away, we can trust her 100% with our home and our pets. Our usually shy cat warmed up to Mia almost immediately, which says a lot about her gentle and calm nature. We always get daily updates, photos, and notes that make us feel completely at ease while we’re gone. Mia consistently goes above and beyond. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, responsible, and has a true passion for animals, Mia is it. We’re so lucky to have found her!”

Joeyann M.
“As the spouse I can say with full confidence—and a little bit of envy—that no one takes better care of animals than they do. In fact, I often joked that our French Bulldog, Niko, was treated better than I was. Niko wasn’t just a pet in our home, he was family. And JoeyAnn made sure of that every single day, from the dog meals to the cozy bedtime routines and even personalized playlists. We’ve been lucky to have a decent-sized yard and a warm, welcoming home that’s always had space for animals. Since Niko passed, it’s felt empty. There’s a quiet in the house that didn’t exist before and all of us, including our 12-year-old son who grew up side-by-side with Niko feels it. Our son was incredibly hands-on and loving with him He learned compassion, responsibility, and how to sneak treats past us when he thought we weren’t looking. We all miss Niko terribly, but the love we had for him hasn’t disappeared—it’s just waiting for another set of paws/claws to come along and fill that space. JoeyAnn is not only loving and dependable, but has an almost magical connection with animals. If you’re considering trusting her with your pet, know they’ll be cared for like royalty… or better, like Niko.”
