“Wonderful, took loving care of our dog - sent pictures and updates daily; answered questions immediately; our dog took to her right away. Upon picking him up, you could tell her was well-cared for during his stay with her. We would/will use her again to look after our dog in a heartbeat. Awesome!”

“Excellent family to watch your dog. I left my one year old Aussie with them and she loved their yard to run around and the attention of the adults and children. I would highly recommend them and will use them in the future. Daily photos helped my anxiety of not seeing my pup”

“Yulia asked very thoughtful questions in preparation to Stella’s stay, she was also very communicative throughout the stay sending me constant updates and pictures.”

“Irina is awesome! She boarded my 2 cats for 3 nights and they were in such excellent hands. Irina was great at asking for how to make them feel the most comfortable away from home and provided regular updates and pics on how they were doing. I will be booking with her again for kitty care!”

“She's an amazing sitter and sent lots of pics and videos. It's easy to see how much love and care she puts into the pets she takes care of. I would definitely recommend her to watch the fur babies.”

About: I've been caring for pets for over 20 years, and it's something I truly love. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets with the same attention and compassion I'd give my own. I offer personalized care, a limited number of clients, consistent updates with photos and videos, a clean safe environment, reliability, punctuality, flexible scheduling, medication administration, and have extensive experience caring for senior pets and those who are anxious or have special needs. My goal is to help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I adore animals of all kinds and would be honored to care for your furry family member! I work from home with a flexible schedule, which makes it easy to care for your pets when you need me. I am always on time and communicate often. I will follow your instructions on how to care for your baby in your home. I can even send photos and keep you updated throughout the day. (I should mention that I am also a professional pet photographer!)
“Dan is a Dog Whisperer. He always makes my little hero Pirate one of the pack in his pooch-friendly home. We’ve left Pirate with him before, but this was for 17 days. Pirate had such a good time with Dan and his dogs that when we reunited today, Pirate gave me kind of a side eye that said, “Hey, I like hanging out here. No rush to come home.” Seriously though, Dan has a very warm, calming presence and we’ll call on him again! Thank you!”

“Janice was amazing taking care of Poro! She has such calming energy and my velcro child took a liking to her and her family immediately. That alone put my heart at ease and would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Greg was an absolute incredible sitter for our senior dog Jack! We needed someone last minute and Greg was so accommodating and flexible. He'll be on our short list for sitters moving forward for sure”

“Angelica kept us updated throughout our dogs’s stay, and they came back to us happy and healthy! Our frenchies can be a bit tricky with all the care specifications so, given the quality of care, we will certainly be asking Angelica for her help again soon!”

“Tamar watched our French bulldog, Kuma, for a week and did a phenomenal job! She made sure he was comfortable in her home and sent us tons of adorable photos every day, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear she truly enjoyed spending time with Kuma and treated him like her own. She even made sure all of his belongings were cleaned, washed, and returned in perfect condition. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will definitely book with her again in the future! 🐶✨💕”

“Bertha took such wonderful care of my nervous little pup. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her. She is very kind and kept my baby as comfortable as possible while I was away. Thank you!”

“Daria did a fantastic job with lupo! She was very gentle, patient, and understanding. Lupo tends to get a bit nervous with new people/environments but Daria did a great job making him feel comfortable and providing good care. She also is very responsive and communicates in a timely manner. Will for sure book her again!”

“I couldn't recommend Margaret as a dogsitter more! My pit mix had an amazing stay with hour-long walks every day, lots of playtime in the backyard, and even a brand-new toy just for her. Margaret was highly communicative and sent tons of pictures and videos throughout the weekend. We will be back for sure!”


“Adrienne and Mike were a great team in caring for Sadie, our 14 pound 7 year old cockapoo. Sadie is a bit timid and has only stayed with one previous caregiver. So a 16 day stay was a concern as Sadie is very attached to her two human parents. Adrienne and Mike helped prepare Sadie to know we would be coming back for her by offering two complimentary stay overs, 2 hours each, for Sadie to get used to them and their home and to know we would be coming back to pick her up. Sadie has always been hand fed and Adrienne had no problem in realizing that on her own and accomodating Sadie's special need. In interviewing different care givers we found that not all caregivers let you see the actual inside of the home where their pup will be staying. But this was no problem for Adrienne and Mike. We also liked that they were a 2 person team so if one of them came down ill, there would always be a back-up. We definately recommend this two person team to others. Thank you Adrienne and Mike !”

“Thank you for taking care of Code once again! We are so thankful for Sherice, Kelly and family for looking after Code on short notice. He was so happy and truly enjoyed the company and warmth of their home. We look forward to having him visit again soon.”

“Ana and Mitchell and their dog Ellie were wonderful sitters for our 5 month old Labradoodle puppy. I am very glad to have found them. Their fenced in backyard and house are set up for entertaining new dogs with comfort and safety. They were able to get our puppy to eat his meals even though he's teething and sometimes unmotivated. He loved playing with Ellie and he was so relaxed after I picked him up because he had a great night with Ana & Mitchell.”

“Daria was a great caretaker for my senior cat! She’s kind and has a clean home. Very communicative through the app and made me feel reassured my pet was in good hands. Would definitely recommend!”

Miry and her two sons took very good care of Brax! He fit in very well will their family and I could tell that Brax was as very comfortable during the meet and greet and weekend visit. Miry kept us well informed the whole time and he was visibly very excited. We would definitely book with Miry moving forward.

Dominique is Bomba’s favorite sitter. I’m so happy we found her. I feel such a relief knowing that Bomba is so well taken care of. Dominique is so consistent with sharing photos and video updates with me and you can see how much Bomba is enjoying herself. Could not be more thankful for her.

Found my perfect dog sitter! Jonalyn did an exceptional job of taking care of our babies for 2 weeks. She kept us in the loop with daily pics and videos. I could tell how much she showered our dogs with love and attention with their daily walks,lots of hugs and playtime. Booking with her was a breeze and I know that in the future, I won't hesitate to book Jonalyn again.

This was our dog Daisy’s second stay with Yulia. We couldn’t be happier with the level of care, attention and affection Yulia gives to her. She is someone we can really trust with our baby girl. We also love the daily pics/videos! We will be booking with Yulia again!
