“Claudia did an excellent job watching our dog for 8 days. We were struggling with picky eating in the days leading up to our trip and couldn't find a solution in time. Claudia took everything in stride. She prepared toppers and alternative meals to her normal kibble. We are so grateful for Claudia's hard work and care.”
“Cannot say great enough things about Gabrielle! She took wonderful care of my pups. One of my pups is challenging but she handled it with ease. I would highly recommend Gabrielle!”
“A huge thank you to Christina for once again taking care of our babies and our home over the holidays! Working with Christina is a dream - she is professional, responsive, and our pets just love her. We do too! Thank you Christina!!”
“Amanda was AWESOME! Our doodle is very shy and quiet. He was rescued and comes with lots of quirks! Amanda was so attentive, lots of pics and shared info about Rex’s day! We are very happy with Amanda!!”
“Jillian and Stella's were a great match. Jillian sent me pictures of Stella every day and Stella looked content. My dog is a barker and Jillian handled it with kindness and understanding. I will definitely use Jillian again! She is a true dog lover! Thanks Jillian.”
“Jennifer was so kind and caring with our pup! She was house sitting for the weekend, followed our pup’s normal schedule, and kept us updated with photos the whole time! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Absolutely went above and beyond with True! My pup is so anxious around people, but spending time with Katherine, she was more regulated and calm than I have ever seen her after being watched by someone new. She took incredible care of my home and was extremely generous. So thankful!!”
“Monique was the perfect person to watch our anxious/reactive but very active dog, Benny. She was happy to meet up a few times to meet and walk with him so he would be familiar with her when we left. Monique sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us posted daily. Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be booking again.”
About: Experienced with puppies, adults, and senior dogs—including my own! I provide loving, patient, and reliable care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I can't wait to meet your fur babies!

Whatever you and your fur babies routine is, I will follow! I have no restrictions whatsoever. Whatever is needed to keep you and your animals satisfied.
“Aurelio was great. Before my brother and I went on our trip, he came over and met us and our puppy and just touched base on some things before we left. While we were away Aurelio sent me videos of my lil guy to show how and what he was doing. Aurelio also gave us tips for better care for our dog, which we are thankful for.”
About: Coming from the luxury hospitality world, including many years at the Ritz-Carlton, we know how to create an truly enjoyable experience for our guests. In this case, our guest is your loving dog! We are committed to following your instructions to ensure that your love is treated the way he/she deserves to be treated. Clearly, we can't replicate the experience he/she has at home in your loving arms, but we strive to be a close second. Checking in often, paying attention to what your they're telling us, and maintaining a warm and loving home is our priority. With two kids aged 15 and 12, a big fenced-in backyard, and canine friends on either side, our home is the perfect environment to ensure that your loving dog is having the fun suburban vacation that he/she deserves while you're away for work or pleasure. We love taking pictures, so that you can rest assured that everyone is having a great time! Message us for more info! Both Stephen and Jill work from home and are available for a lot of one on one attention. We love having dogs to spend time with during the day. We have a fenced in yard, no pets in our home but two children that love playing with dogs. Our family enjoys having dogs to walk around the neighborhood, whether it is ours or we come to your home to walk your dog.
About: I genuinely believe I was put on this planet to care for animals. From dogs and cats to small mammals and wildlife, I’ve done it all! I have experience with pretty much any creature you can think of and maybe even some you can’t, lol. Seniors and those with special needs will always have a huge place in my heart. I promise to make your companion feel as loved as possible while you are away! Life landed me in a position to work from home/renovate our house so I am home almost all the time. I figured I’m so used to caring for animals anyway, I may as well help you with peace of mind while you’re away and I can make a few bucks doing something I love that I’m genuinely good at. We have a fenced in yard and live in a dog-friendly, super walkable neighborhood. My biggest goal is to have your companion be as comfortable and feel as loved as possible while you’re away, so any details you can share with me to keep them as close as possible to their routine would be amazing!

It shocked me how it seemed that he had known her his entire life. I've seen Nikki rescue, rehabilitate and foster all sorts of animals in need, and I can honestly say that she truly cares and loves them. There isn't anyone else I would trust to care for my little guy other than her.”

We were nervous to leave our dogs with anyone but family as they don’t get along with each other. We found Greilyn and explained to her the situation with the dogs and she handled it with ease and kept us updated all week. Will definitely use her services again!
Anna took wonderful care of our senior dog, which included giving her daily medicine and helping manage her accidents in the house. She kept in excellent communication and checked in frequently which we appreciated so much! Will definitely reuse Anna for watching her again 😊
I couldn’t be happier with Ashley and the care she provided for my dogs, Zorro and Zeus! From the moment we met, I felt confident leaving my furry friends in her hands. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly passionate about animals. She also kept me updated with photos and messages, which made me feel so at ease. When I came back, both Zorro and Zeus were happy and relaxed. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.
Shell waited on our pets hand a foot and went out of her way to make them feel comfortable. She also kept us completely up to date on how they were doing. My dog is an emotionally shut down dog and my cat is 20 years old so they needed that special care and they got it . We are grateful to have Shell as a sitter !
Monique was the perfect person to watch our anxious/reactive but very active dog, Benny. She was happy to meet up a few times to meet and walk with him so he would be familiar with her when we left. Monique sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us posted daily. Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be booking again.
