“First time I used Nikki and will definitely continue to re-book. When you’re out of town and away from your fur baby sometimes you worry but she sent multiple pictures throughout the day of my little one. I appreciated the care she put into it!”


About: I have pets of my own, I have a yorky(chase), and I have 2 cats of my own. I provide personalized, attentive care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. With experience in puppy training, basic obedience, and senior dog care, I’m comfortable with everything, slow-paced walks, making sure your dog eats the right diet. Beyond just walking, I focus on enrichment & providing mental stimulation, affection, and routine to keep your dog happy and healthy while you’re away. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I structure my day around morning, midday, and evening walks. Whether it’s early , mid-afternoon potty breaks, or relaxing evenings, I make sure pets get the attention they need throughout the day. If caring for pets in my home, I offer a calm, clean, and pet-friendly spaces & I focus on keeping your pet comfortable by following their usual routine.

“Hillary was VERY accommodating to me with my many schedule changes during this stay. She checked in regularly and even provided my pup with a complimentary bath. Recommend without hesitation!”


“Zadok and his family were excellent sitters for my cat Rango. We only had him for a few months so sending him off was quite a challenge especially with not knowing who we were sending him to. Zadok quickly made us feel comfortable and communicated every step of the way prior to the boarding, during the boarding and even after. He truly does have a heart for the pets he keeps and would highly recommend him to anyone needing sitting services. His place is neat and clean and he is truly accommodating to the needs of the pets he keeps.”


About: Currently, I work in veterinary medicine and am looking to care for pets outside the office. I have always been an animal lover and have had pets since childhood. I am currently working full time as a veterinary assistant. We recently lost our only fur-baby so our house is needing some animals to love on. While in our home, your baby will have our full attention. While I am at my regularly scheduled 8-5, my husband is home during the day and can give potty breaks and belly rubs as needed! I will care for and love your animals just as you do while you’re away. (But maybe with some extra treats 😊) We love all animals here!

“Great experience! I was very hesitant to leave my 2 dogs ( 4 yo Goldendoodle and 2 yo rescue Labradoodle) with a sitter ---- I have never used a sitter before. Oksana and her husband were diligent in walking the dogs several times a day and gave them lots of loving and cuddles. They sent pictures daily-- we knew they were in good hands! Would definitely use them again!”


“Andie did an amazing job taking care of our 3 very different dogs while we were away for a week. I felt like she understood their unique needs and appreciated their little personalities. She sent a ton of pics and humor along the week as well.”


“Sharon and Richard always take great care of Bella!! We appreciate them SO much!”
