“Again, Christina and crew did a great job taking care of our dog, Bruno! Sent videos and pics daily so we could be reassured he was enjoying himself in their care. Thank you!!!🐶❤️”

“Wonderful (boarding) visit for our dog who is old and slightly stand-off-ish. Shannon sent updates and photos letting us know she was comfortable, eating and even playful (at times). She went out of her way to make sure her her own dog and our dog were having careful, playful interactions. Felt very good about our dog's stay with Shannon.”


“We feel lucky to have had Jesse dog sit for us. He is very kind and caring. He honored our care instructions and we are grateful for that. Widget was very happy after his stay with Jesse.”

“Thanks Dilan! Scampi had a great time with Melody and thanks again for being so flexible with our pick up time. Overall everything went smooth on our end and we will definetly contact Dilan for future boarding needs. Highly recommend!”

“Johemy was great! Excellent communication from time of booking and sent pictures and updates while my dogs were with her. They obviously liked her because they weren't overly excited when I came to pick up like they always are when I come home. She was very detailed about wanting specific details about feeding, going outside, sleeping, toys, treats, etc. and I felt 100% comfortable leaving them. We will definitely use her again. That being said, I probably wouldn't take a large dog because of it being a small apartment but it was perfectly fine for our small dogs.”

“Citladi took exceptional care of Claire, making her right at home! She touched base and sent me a few photos but did not feel the need to be in constant contact with me which I appreciated. I felt great that Claire was having a fun, safe and comfortable stay!”

“Donna was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of FiFi and kept me updated the whole time, which gave me real peace of mind. You can tell she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. FiFi came home happy, calm, and well cared for. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter — highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and caring!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, and animals of all shapes and sizes. Caring for pets has always been a part of my daily life, and I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I currently have two cats of my own and know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m happy to provide attentive, reliable care. I have flexible working hours and am available for a variety of services, including drop-in visits, walks, house sitting, and pet care tailored to your pet’s needs. I look forward to treating your pets like they’re my own! Pet care fits easily into my schedule. I have a very flexible work schedule and am only committed from 11 AM–2 PM Monday through Thursday, and I can often adjust my schedule to be available during those hours if needed. Outside of that, I am available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and other pet care needs. I am fully available Friday through Sunday, allowing me to provide flexible scheduling, extended care, and overnight services when needed. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to incorporating into my daily routine. In your home, I work to keep things as familiar as possible. I follow your pet’s regular schedule—feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications—so they feel secure while you’re away. I respect your space, keep things clean, and always leave everything just as I found it (or better!). Your pet gets my full attention, and you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and check-ins for peace of mind.
“Marion has taken care of Minty multiple times now and we couldn't be happier with the service. Marion is caring, thoughtful, kind, and we know Minty loves staying with her and her dogs! She is exceptional with communication, responding quickly to any messages and keeping us regularly updated with photos. Minty always returns home happy and healthy (and tired from playing!). We are very grateful to her, and we of course recommend Marion if you are looking for someone to take care of your dog.”

“Danae was a great sitter! I reached out to her last minute to take care of Wally and she responded quickly and positively. She spoiled Wally for the night she had him and Wally enjoyed his time with her and her dogs. Danae also sent lots of photos which I love. So happy I was able to find her. :)”

“This was my second time using Rover so there’s still some hesitation on my part. However, Kalikonani was amazing! I have a senior dog so knowing that she had a senior pup of her own, made me feel relieved that she’d understand my dog. She provided pics, updates, and was a great communicator. I definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in the future :)”

“Carol was great with my dog, Henry! Even in her small space, he felt right at home. She took amazing care of him and even helped with his training. She sent photos & updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend!”

“Samantha was very active with Zoe and kept me informed throughout her entire stay. Her flexibility made my trip stress free and it was nice knowing Zoe was doing good the whole time. I am so grateful to have found her and will use her again in the future.”

“Athena was great with my dog, Donner! She was able to watch him with only a few days notice. Took him on walks and updated us with pictures. It was so nice for Donner to get all the attention being the only dog there. I will definitely be booking Donner for another stay in the future. Thank you so much Athena and Will for giving Donner the best care while we were on vacation!”

“If there is anyone that I would want to watch my dog while I was out of town it would be Chris (she’s also a local Vet tech). She took great care of my child/dog Aldo while I was gone for a few days. She always sent me pics of him having a great time at her house playing with the all the toys and her 2 dogs, always took him for walks, and gave him treats. He usually sleeps on his bed on the floor but when I came back he was sleeping on Chris’ bed... Now he sleeps in my bed every night since I picked Him up!! 5/5 stars and a great person too!”

“Brenden is amazing and took such great care of Mulligan! We were able to fully enjoy a wedding celebration knowing our dog was in great hands. Brenden took the dogs hiking and lots of play was had which was perfect to tire Mulligan out ahead of our 6 hour drive home. Highly recommend!!!”

“Yessina and Sophie and their 3 children were the perfect introduction for my 6 month old puppy, Pixie, to experience her 1st dog sitters! They were very kind and gentle with her and her shyness didn’t faze them. Buster my 8 year old terrier who is cautious around strangers, but a real gentleman, picked his spots to lay down and wait patiently and was calm when I arrived. Even though both dogs refused to eat while they were there for the day, I was very happy with the care given by this family. They really listened to me and followed my suggestions! I’m planning on returning and rebooking with them!”

“Kelly is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had!! Our pup was so spoiled with hikes, family play time, plenty of window watching, and he was even serenaded by her sons playing violin! Her fenced in backyard was perfect for outdoor time and our active Brittany spaniel absolutely loved the daily walks. Kelly was very attentive to our conversations beforehand and even set up a little window watching area for bird watching during the day. Kelly had excellent communication while we were away. It was always a delight getting a photo update from her as a little reminder that our dog was in great care. Thank you so much Kelly for doing this job so well! We appreciate you and your family! Our dog Elvin was sad to leave your house!”

it’s was our first time working with a pet sitter and I was really a little anxious about it, but immediately felt comfortable around Jesse and trusted that he was going to take good care of my dog. We were visiting the area for an anniversary and on the last day decided we wanted to check out the aquarium and Jesse accommodated us so we could have one last adventure in the area before picking our pet up. Thank you for taking such good care of Yuki, Jesse!

Brenden is amazing and took such great care of Mulligan! We were able to fully enjoy a wedding celebration knowing our dog was in great hands. Brenden took the dogs hiking and lots of play was had which was perfect to tire Mulligan out ahead of our 6 hour drive home. Highly recommend!!!

If I could leave 10 stars, I would! Gino + Beans are the duo to love your pup like one of their own. I’m a new dog Mom to a 5 month old Pitty-mix, Rü. Gino took extra time out of his day to meet Rü and I before hand to calm my nerves, and for me to be there to introduce Rü to Beans (I felt like a mom sending their baby to camp for the first time 😂) Having Gino watch Rü felt like having a team mate; on board to implement Rü’s training, he followed my schedule/routine, and not only checked in with adorable photos but also checked in when he had minor concerns. This made me feel included and comforted, and not at all like I just dropped off my puppy with a stranger that I met on an app. Gino + Beans feel like family to me now, and I truly cannot sing their praises enough. Extra EXTRA stars for the cutest photo updates!

We are always happy to book our older dog with Tanya and Rob. They treat him wonderfully and send lots of updates, and we joke that our dog is going his own vacation during his stays. it’s a comfort to know that he is in good hands and having a nice time. Absolutely would recommend and book again!

Ruthie had a great day with Kelly and her fur babies! Kelly is a sweet, compassionate and gentle person who we can tell loves all animals!! Ruthie was cared for and loved during her stay and slept exceptionally well when we brought her home. We think she was even a little bit lonely not having her fur buddies nearby. We will definitely book with Kelly again!!!!!!

Judy did a great job with my corgi Lupin! Good communication, daily pictures and reports. I am often nervous leaving Lupin with new people, but Judy put my mind at ease. I knew Lupin had frequent access to the yard, and multiple choices of beds to nap in (which is how she likes it). Judy is my new go-to for dog-sitting.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Glennis took such wonderful care of our Frenchie, Fiona, over the holiday weekend! From the start, her communication was thoughtful and thorough—she asked all the right questions and kept us updated with adorable photos and messages throughout Fiona’s stay. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Fiona was in a cozy, safe, and loving environment. Glennis made sure she was comfortable, even checking in about her food, treats, and habits. Fiona clearly enjoyed hanging out with Glennis and her dogs, and it meant a lot to see her so relaxed and happy. Pick-up and drop-off went smoothly, and Glennis was kind and accommodating even when we arrived a little early. We would absolutely book with her again without hesitation. Highly recommend Glennis if you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family! — George B.
