Nan was absolutely amazing. This was my first time ever leaving my dog, who is very anxious without me, and she went above and beyond to make me feel completely comfortable. She sent so many pictures and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. Nan was so loving, patient, and caring, and it was clear my dog felt safe and happy with her. Thanks to Nan, I finally feel like I can enjoy work or personal trips without constant worry. I can’t wait to use her again and would recommend her without hesitation.

Megan and Nick created the most comfortable home away from home for Brady. He came home so happy and energetic. We got regular updates and pictures which was comforting to know he was doing well throughout our trip. We would for sure recommend them and book them to watch Brady again.

About: I work from home 5 days a week which will allow your dog to get constant attention and love. Having cared for my own dog I understand how difficult it is to leave with someone else. I currently work from home 5 days a week and will be able to attend to your dogs needs. I can take them out for plenty of potty breaks. Since I work from home your dog will get plenty of attention. I live in a very dog friendly community that is great for walks. I will always keep your dog on a secure leash whenever outdoors.

I recently had to leave my dog, Ash, with Ilene for a week, and I can’t express how grateful I am for her help, especially on such short notice. During Ash’s stay, I was going through a lot, including a move and a funeral, and having Ilene care for Ash truly took a huge weight off my shoulders. Ash can be a bit of a handful due to her strength, but Ilene was patient and worked with me to find a solution. By the end of the stay, Ash was so happy and well cared for—I could tell right away when I picked her up! The adorable pictures Ilene sent of Ash were such a comforting touch and really brightened my days. I’m beyond appreciative of Ilene’s kindness and care, and I would absolutely trust her with Ash again.

From the moment we met Kajal, her family, and her sweet dog Nala, we knew Toby was going to be in the best hands. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and proactive throughout the entire stay — sending regular updates, photos, and check-ins that gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of the country. What truly sets Kajal apart is how naturally she treats every dog like family. Toby has had sitters before, but we have never seen him this relaxed, happy, and at ease with anyone outside of home. He fit right in with Kajal's family and Nala, and honestly? He almost seemed a little sad to come back — which, as a pet parent, is the highest compliment you can give a sitter. It is incredibly rare to find someone who matches the love and care you pour into your own dog, and Kajal does exactly that. Toby is more than a pet to us he's family — and she treated him no differently. I would recommend Kajal without a single hesitation, not just for Toby, but for any dog lucky enough to stay with her. If you're looking for a sitter who will love your pup like their own, look no further!

About: I am American Red Cross First Aid Certified I am insured & offer weekend and some weekly pup play & stay. Your fur baby will enjoy a loving home environment with supervised playtime, cuddles, attention, and a safe place to relax while you’re away. I treat every pup like family and provide regular updates so you can feel comfortable and connected during their stay. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will have a calm, comfortable environment with lots of companionship. I’m available most weekends for boarding, daycare, and play stays. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate potty breaks, playtime, feeding routines, walks, cuddles, and rest throughout the day to help your pup feel safe and at home. I have two friendly toy poodles and a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Dogs in my care can roam freely throughout the house and enjoy a calm, loving environment. I also understand some dogs prefer their own space, so I’m happy to provide separate quiet time away from my pups when needed.

She has a great property for the dogs to roam around and get the exercise they need! I feel that our dogs are in great hands when they stay with her. We will definitely be using her again the near future!!!

Caroline was a gem! She was very accommodating of the last minute request and the way she wanted to do a short meet and greet prior to my dog’s stay, it felt very genuine of her to ensure her dogs and my dog had a good introduction. I was nervous about leaving my dog Berkeley for a week, but Caroline and her family really loved on Berkeley like their own and I really loved that she sent frequent photos, videos, and updates about how Berkeley was doing.
