“Whitney and Michael T. are absolutely incredible! From the moment I met them, I could tell they are not just pet caregivers but true animal lovers with a wealth of knowledge about our four-legged companions. Their warm and loving family creates such a nurturing environment that I immediately felt at ease leaving our precious June Bug in their care. What really sets Michael and Whitney apart is their ability to provide younger pups with invaluable socialization opportunities. They create a safe and fun space for dogs to learn how to interact and just be dogs. It’s rare to find caregivers who understand this so deeply, and their patience is unmatched—even when a little accident happens (which, let’s face it, is inevitable with young pups). They handle everything with grace and kindness. Their training skills are nothing short of extraordinary. June Bug came home not just happy and well cared for but also better behaved! They went above and beyond, and I could tell they treated her as if she were their own. I truly couldn’t have asked for more. Michael and Whitney took the most amazing care of our girl, and I’ll absolutely be using their services again. If you’re looking for someone to care for your fur baby with love, expertise, and patience, don’t hesitate—Whitney and Michael are the best!”
“Gerry is the best. We just left our puppy with her for his first overnight stay and he was received with lots of love and attention. Would definitely recommend Gerry to others.”
“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”
“Tanvi and her family are so loving and caring towards Chestnut. We love seeing the videos and photos she sends. He has a great time with their Shih-Tzu Happy. Thank you!”
“Jolanta and her family are the best! Our pup Lulu felt very comfortable right away and she was in good spirits when we picked her up after ten days away. We could tell she got a lot of love and attention. Jolanta’s very friendly and great with providing photo and video updates. Also very safety minded. Would highly recommend!!”
“Nams has a calmed demeanor that instantly connects with pets. Snowy immediately knew she was in a safe and friendly environment. Very professional. I would definitely recommend her.”
“I’m so glad to have found Catherine on here! I know my doggo was in good, caring hands - she put my mind at ease about leaving him for a few days. She was great! If in the area again, I will absolutely book with her.”
“Julianna was great with our dog. She kept was updated and also sent us pictures of our dog. She responded quickly to our message which was nice of her. Will definitely recommend her to others and definitely book her again as well”
“I appreciate Samantha’s diligence in dealing with our last minute dilemmas. Spencer seemed to have had a lovely visit with her & Coco. He appeared happy & at ease in the pics she shared. I would certainly recommend her as a sitter of the highest quality…”
“Meena & her husband took very good care of our 8 month old pup. She was updating us with messages and pictures throughout the day and went out of her way to care for him. We were at peace of mind seeing the pictures & updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend her!”
“Camila and Omar did a great job with Hercules. He got to hang with other dogs and kids and loved it. I forgot to bring his dog food topper (picky eater), but they made sure he had a little meat mixed in and he ate fine. I'll use them again.”
“Kiana was amazing! She was able to take in our dog on such short notice, was extremely communicative, and upon meeting her it is evident that she has the perfect temperament to put a dog at ease, especially in a new environment. We got caught in the worst gridlock traffic coming home and she was so patient and accommodating despite our pickup being delayed. Cant say enough good things!”
“My baby was with Thana and Subangi for one night, and he had an amazing time. Thana was sending pics, videos and updates constantly. I am happy with their service. I will use them again”
“Tao offered a very relaxed and comfortable setting for my dog. My dog was happy and enjoyed the freedom of exploring the fenced in yard. The house is on a very low traffic street, which my dog is used to, so he was able to sleep peacefully at night. Tao sent pictures and videos which were very much appreciated. Would book Tao again!”
“Rachel took great care of our 15 year old terrier mix Cookie. She sent photos and messages to us everyday we were away. She followed all our directions and I felt relaxed and at ease knowing Cookie was happy. How do I know? Rachel reported that Cookie didn’t want her to stop rubbing her belly. Cookie does not let most people rub her belly!! That said it all!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life! I have spent time with puppies right out of the womb and old dogs in their last years (and every age in between). I am excited to give your dog the love and care that they deserve. :) I currently work part-time. At most, I will be leaving your dog 4-5 hours at a time, but often, I can be with them all day. Reach out, and we can see what kind of care your dog needs! I will always want to work with your plan for keeping your pet safe, since you know them best. Your dog will be well-loved and cared for with me.

Mitzy has been a repeat customer with Mary for a while now. We had an especially long trip out of the country and Mary had to deal with Mitzy's health issues that came up during it. She handled it with so much care and it really gave us peace of mind while we were away. Can't recommend Mary highly enough!
We’re so grateful to have Kate take care of Lexa! She’s incredibly flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and having access to a nearby dog park is a fantastic bonus. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates—they gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away.
