“Mercedes is incredible with our puppy Ellie! I could not recommend a better sitter! She keeps us updated and sends pictures as much as possible! Ellie has come back very happy both times that Mercedes had her! I cannot wait to continue working with Mercedes!”

“Great experience with Ethel. We came in from out of town to watch a Red Stars game and she took care of our bernedoodle, Frankie. Ethel’s place is a very short way from SeatGeek Stadium and Frankie came back to us happy.”

“Amy was absolutely wonderful with my puppy, Bambi! She was extremely flexible with my schedule, had excellent communication throughout the day, and made me feel completely at ease while I was at work. It means so much to know my fur baby was in such caring hands. Thank you so much, Amy, for taking such great care of Bambi. I will definitely be using you again!”

About: Drop-off for overnight is at 5 PM or later. If you need to come earlier that day, add day care for that day. Pick-up for overnight is at 10 AM or earlier. If you need to come later that day, add day care for that day. Potty Trained Only!! You will be charged $20 for EVERY "accident" inside our home. Sorry to make this addition but we had too many people representing their dogs as "potty trained' only to clean up after them several times a day. For your peace of mind: 1. We only take one dog at the time. (unless related and requested by owner) 2. No kennels or crates in our house. Dogs have full house and backyard access at all times. 3. Only take dogs up to 25 lbs.

About: Animals are freakin awesome and I love them! I've had snails, a bird, frogs, co-owned cats (one at a time), as well as cat sit. I grew up with a dog, and spent 15+years with my beloved baby Shiba Inu Kenji. He had one eye, lots of arthritis, kidney issues, and half his teeth in the end but was full of life! Very familiar with meds and schedules and special needs, natural food etc. Not ready for another and didn't know much about this service. I wish l'd have known, so let me help YOU! (Note- i cannot take dogs over 60lbs, check box options are limited. Thanks for understanding) I work from home so can be available for full days, or as needed. Weekends I may have some things to do but will prioritize where needed. I do not have a crate, but you can provide. Otherwise I have bowls and beds and cones of shame as well as soft flower cone where needed. I also have gates and a pen, and multiple doors. I treat my animals (mine or family friends) like a kid. Safety always, lots of love, and a fun time!

“Jason is amazing! Our pup Lucy is very shy around both people and dogs and Jason has provided the perfect combination of comfort and fun for her to come out of her shell more. His dog Ava is playful, sweet and well trained. Jason communicates well and sends pictures/videos throughout the day. Highly recommend Jason! Your dog will be happy and well cared for.”


About: I love dogs. I have had one Doberman, one mutt who was the best, and two English Mastiffs. I had a dog everyday of my life until five years ago when my 200 pound English Mastiff named Max died. It broke my heart and hasn't felt right to replace him. But I love dogs and cherish watching the relationship people have with their dogs. I say hi to every pooch on the street that I pass. Rest assured, your dog will be treated with the utmost friendliness and care imaginable. I work from home so your dog will always have a friendly companion around. A side note. No Pit Bulls, No Rottweilers, No Stafford Terriers, No Husky of any sort, and No Doodles of any sort. I'm sure if any of these five dogs are part of your family that you are a wonderful person and so is your dog. However, they are far from my cup of tea. I work from home. I'm home basically all the time. And other than that, I just work on landscaping my front and back yards. I have a fenced in yard. Your pet is in great hands. I work from home.

“I was nervous about leaving my 8 week old puppy for the first time. Iman was nice and I could immediately see how patient she was with each dog. Her love for animals truly standout I will definitely rebook with her again I'm thr future.”

About: I've lived with dogs all my life and raise a few by myself from puppies. I'm all about safety and mutual respect. I hope I can be a friend and even a teacher for your pups. I find dogs are more easily trained once they've had adequate exercise. I'm happy to take your guy or girl for a long walk, to the dog park, or even to the dog beach. Also, if you're going out of town or just need a quiet night, I'm happy to watch over your loved one as if they were my own. I'll make sure they feel comfortable and well taken care of. I'm happy to host at my apartment or at yours. Let's connect and see if it's a good fit. Thanks!
About: Hi! I will care for your pet as I do my own. I know dogs need lots of attention and activity. I love to get outside and walk them. My little Teddy loves other dogs too. He is ok with bigger dogs. We go to the dog park a lot so he’s very social. I am flexible and would love to meet you and your dog. My son is a huge dog lover also. Give us a chance, you won’t regret it! I’m ok with dogs on the furniture and wherever. I will listen to you for tips of course because nobody knows your pet like you do. Looking forward to meeting your pet! I know I’ve needed dog sitters in the past! I am off work right now so I have a pretty open schedule! I’m really looking forward to watching your dogs. Pick me! Pick me! My house is fine, or yours. I am trying to do whatever makes sense for you. I have usually dropped my dog off but am not opposed to staying at your house if you prefer that. I may ask to bring my dog Teddy with! He’s 18 pounds, and very sweet. Loves all other dogs!
“Amazing care for my Butters. I was completely comfortable leaving him in Danny’s care. Daily pictures and a lot of space for Butters to run around. Will be coming back to Danny for future service! 5/5 Recommended!”

About: Tail-wagging care you can count on! I have 20 years of pet sitting experience with a wide range of pet personalities and temperaments and 25 years of loving my own fur babies as well. I specialize in pup care (housetraining, play based development, walk adventures), senior pet care (gentle handling, mobility support, medication administration), and special needs and rescue animals (with an understanding of anxiety, therapeutic support, and slow-trust building). I treat every pet like my own—with kindness, reliability, and plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. You can relax knowing your pet is not only safe, but genuinely cared for. :) I'm currently working part time from home so I prioritize caring for your pet with the same attention I gave to my own pets - making sure they’re happy, healthy, and safe while you're away. I have a fenced yard and an animal-friendly home. Currently we have three sweet kittens in the home (Luna, Notte, and Silvio) and, over the last few years, we had a dog Nala and two cats Namu and Malu that passed on after 15-17 years of life. I now have two children (my daughter is 7, and my son is 4) who love animals and are very gentle and caring. If your pet doesn't prefer children, please let me know and I wouldn't bring them with me to care for your pet. :)

“Buddy had such a great time!!! Susseth was so good with him. She was patient with our gentle but big dog. Susseth sent pics of the dogs having a blast!!! This big lug definitely would love to go back and have a play date with Susseth and company!”

“Megan was so incredible with our Rottweiler puppy! She sent pictures and videos for the entire day while I was at work! Nala got along very well with her dachshund Dottie!! I would definitely recommend her and we will definitely be using her for future pet sitting! Thanks again, Megan!!!”

“We are so grateful to Emily for the excellent care she provided our pup. Every morning he was excited to see her, and every night he came back tuckered out, but in great spirits.
