Audrey and Joseph are always the first place I check when I need a sitter! They do a great job of making my pup feel welcome and send daily photos. Trust them 100% with my fur baby.

This was our first time using Alicia and our 11 year old dog had previously been going to another lady for several years. His first night with Alicia he was a little sad and unsure but he acclimated quickly. Alicia was very responsive to us when we reached out and made him feel safe and secure.

My dog stayed with Karlee for 4 nights recently and he had such a great time! She brought him on multiple adventures including the beach and made sure to send many pics and update me daily. I would highly recommend Karlee for dog watching and sitting!

What a wonderful family, and our sweet dog came back happy, healthy, and unstressed. I will definitely reach out again to have them dog-sit. Karson was so thoughtful to send us pictures showing how she was adjusting, since this was the first time she had ever been left with someone. Thank you!

Our dog spent the weekend with Janette, and we couldn't have found a better 'home away from home' for her. This is an oasis for any dog: a large, fenced yard provides plenty of room for exercise and entertainment, and her dog is great company for visiting canines. This is a true pet paradise, and we'll be recommending Janette's pet-sitting services to our friends.

Dr Hope and Scott are amazing dog loving people. I did not ask for walks because they have a great backyard and it is huge to let my dogs get the exercise they need for the 4 days. They are happy to be home but they enjoyed their time there. This won’t be the last time we will book with her.

Fran is my go to cat sitter and every experience has been great. She is reliable, trustworthy and incredible caring. I never worry when I’m away because I know she will take great care of Carlisle.From feeding to administering medication Fran handles everything with ease and professionalism. I can’t recommend her enough : )

She sent lots of pictures and was very accommodating with sh l schedule for pick up and drop off, as well as a meetup to make sure the dogs got along with her dogs. Plenty of space for the dogs to run around and play outside including a nice shaded area with a koi pond. Thank you for taking care of our dogs while we were away for the weekend.

About: I’ve taken care of and owned dogs my entire life! I’ve been a reliable dog owner and watcher for friends, family and neighbors for years. I have experience with a lot of different breeds and personalities ranging from Shih Tzu to Husky to Doodle to Aussie. I currently stay at home and am able to provide a lot of undivided attention, walks, and love for your fur baby! My schedule is flexible and I am able to board and watch your pups as needed. I have a shy mini Aussie (7) that is able to freely roam our home and will keep your pup company! Our yard is not fenced, but we are able to go on multiple walks a day if needed and enjoy our community dog park to get extra wiggles out.

Tara is AMAZING! Our pup boarded with her full time for a week while we were out of town. Professional, caring, reliable, and communicative, just to name a few of her wonderful care giving qualities. Lots of pictures and communication every day. Even on short notice and on top of that our pup started going into a heat cycle while in her care. Tara kept us updated and made sure our pup was safe, loved, and cared for. Could not be happier with this experience and I highly recommend Tara!

THE BEST! Lisbeth took the best care of my old man. 15year old Jake (cat) takes medicine twice a day. Lisbeth's Vet Tech skills were why I chose her, but there were even more things that made us glad Jake was in her hands. It was a last minute booking, and then we requested to come later. She was kind and accommodating throughout the hosting, including letting us come early to pick him up. Lisbeth responded quickly to every text, and she was always cheerful. She sent me a picture of my Jakey-Boy so I could see he was content. He had never been boarded ever, so I had worries, that were needless. If you are deciding who to choose to take care of your fur baby, look no further. You have found the best choice!

Eve just watched our Great Dane for two weeks, and she was absolutely amazing. From the moment we met her, it was obvious how much she genuinely cared about animals. She made sure our dog always felt comfortable, loved, and completely at ease while we were away. Our Great Dane absolutely adored her, which says everything. Eve treated her like family, gave her tons of attention, and went above and beyond to keep her happy and settled into a routine. She also sent us constant pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to truly relax knowing our baby was in such great hands. We could not have asked for a better experience and would trust Eve again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive with their pets!

Gabrielle is fantastic! She took over the care of our dog at the last minute due to an unforeseen situation. She sent pictures, videos, and updates throughout the day. She took care of him as though he were her own pet or child. In fact, I am not sure he was ready to leave! She gave him a bath just before we picked him up. He went on multiple walks throughout the day. He was never left alone (she works from home). And her place is spacious, particularly the terrace! I will definitely use her again!! Best service we have ever had!

I wish I would have found Charlie and Lisa sooner. I felt comfortable with them the first time we met and RD made himself right at home at the meet and greet. They were very attentive to him and his needs. Sending pictures and updates made me feel at ease because it was the first time I left him with strangers and I could tell he felt right at home. I will definitely use Charlie and Lisa again and I would not hesitate to recommend them highly to anyone who wants their fur baby in good hands and well taken care of. You will not be disappointed!!

We live on a boat, so it’s always a little nerve-wracking finding new sitters everywhere we dock but Kym and Glenn were absolutely wonderful! I can’t say enough good things about them. They welcomed Marley into their home like she was part of their family. Their sweet pups, Daisy and Toby, were great companions, and it was clear Marley felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. Kym and Glenn sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We are so grateful to have found them and would absolutely trust them with Marley again. Highly recommend!
