“Kim was our first cat sitter we’ve ever had and I am never going to look for anyone else! She was so communicative and thoughtful, and made us feel so at ease. She treated our cat as her own and went above and beyond to make sure our cat (and us) had a great experience. So grateful we found her!”
About: Does your doggo need a stay-at-home auntie in its life? Get ready for lots of photos and updates because your babies will get 24-7 attention at Casa de Barbara. ** I am a work-from-home writer/editor, and my husband is a scientist working in biotech. Aside from our very friendly poodle mutt (pictured in profile), the last member of our household is our daughter. She is great with dogs, having grown up learning how to nicely pet our pup. ** Some of the dogs that I have watched over the years have been coming to me longer than I’ve known my husband. We look forward to adding yours to the pack! ** Outside, your pet will get minimum 3 walks and/or off-leash time at a dog park. Inside, we will nap together in between rounds of fetch. ** My family is what you might consider perfect for your dog’s stay: pretty boring! 🤣 We don’t go out much, and if we do, we don’t stay out late. ***
About: We’ve fostered around 20 pups and volunteered at a senior center with our pup, bringing comfort and joy to others. These experiences shaped our calm, patient, and loving approach to every dog we care for, with 15+ repeat clients. We both work remotely from home, which means your dog will have constant supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. Dogs in care are never left alone for long periods and settle into a relaxed, home style, cozy routine. We focus on providing a calm, peaceful environment. Dogs are treated like family, enjoying neighborhood walks, playtime, naps, and quiet time. Only accepting calm, well mannered dogs who are comfortable sharing space and not prone to resource guarding, which helps maintain a safe and stress free home. The home is set up for comfort and calm, providing extra dog beds in multiple areas, cozy resting spots, and a variety of toys and enrichment items to keep dogs comfortable and engaged. Dogs are free to relax, play, nap, and move around at their own pace. Because we work remotely, pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine and, with always being home, allows for frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Plenty of grassy areas and walking paths near our residence, making outdoor time easy and enjoyable. The schedule is structured but flexible, adjusting to each dog’s energy level and normal routine. Available on weekdays and weekends, can accommodate extended stays, and aim to support last minute bookings when possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our home is clean, calm, and well supervised, and the dogs are never left unattended. We follow each pet’s routine closely and introduce dogs thoughtfully to maintain a peaceful environment. We take dogs out for frequent potty breaks and daily walks, always with safety in mind. Crate if requested, but most dogs relax freely indoors with cozy spaces to rest. To help you feel confident and connected, we provide daily photo and video updates, and we're always happy to send additional photos, videos, or text updates on demand. You’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. We also recommend a meet & greet prior to boarding to ensure we’re a great fit and that your dog feels comfortable in our home.
About: Ive spent my entire young life with animals of all shapes and sizes from horses to birds to many different breeds of dogs and cats. I walked many neighborhood dogs all four years of middle school, worked at Bow Wow Meow for some time in highschool, and Smilin Dogs just a few years back. A few of the things i took care of while there; bathing and nail trims, caring for 20+ dogs at a time with light training, feeding on a schedule and putting dogs down for naps or bedtime. I have two puppies and a three year old dog at home, aside from that i have all the time in the world to care for your furry family members! I can help with basic training for dogs young and old, i believe no dog is past the point of learning a new trick or two. I can also follow any kind of schedule you set as far as feeding, walking, and naps/bedtime.
“Angelica was so sweet with our boy! She made sure he got some outside time and lots of great cuddles. She also made sure to follow all instructions and administered medicine for our senior dog. Macho loved his visit from Angelica!”

“I would use Regina for Trouble's care again if needed. Great notes and pictures each time Ragina visited Trouble. It took a little time for Trouble to make up to Regina, I'm surprised Trouble made up to Regina at all, way to go Regina! I asked Regina to visit on a day not on her schedule. That being April 5th, so I could "introduce" Trouble and Regina and show Regina the routines. I want to pay her the extra day of $25 plus a tip of $45. This to be added to the $200 already agreed on. Thanks so much. Russ Emery”

“We had a last minute need and Juliana was so accommodating. Both our dog and our cat loved her immediately. She was on time, was great at communicating with photos, and took perfect care of both of them. We couldn't have asked for more. Thank you, Juliana!”
“Lina was so great coming by each day to check on our dogs. She made sure to give detailed updates and provide photos and videos. She was very attentive to their needs and I would highly recommend her services.”
About: I have been fortunate enough to grow up around dogs. Because of this, I feel that I’ve built up 10 years of experience. But I have been offering professional pet care for 6 years, to friends and family. I’m happy to accommodate to any specialized care instructions! I do have a day job, so I would do check ins throughout the day, mainly in the afternoon. I do offer overnight stays but the same check in system will apply due to my schedule. I provide attentive visits that include feeding, fresh water, walks or cleaning, and plenty of playtime or snuggles depending on your pets personality. I’ll give them gentle care, attention, and companionship so they feel calm and loved.
“Amber was fantastic. I came home to a happy and healthy pup. She was a good communicator, left detailed recaps of her visits, and took great photos! I will definitely call on Amber again the next time I have to go out of town.”
“Dom took good care of our cat while we were away. He was communicative and sent us little updates during his visits. We would recommend him to others and look forward to having him sit again.”

Kim is so good with my cats! My boys are super friendly and playful, and Kim is always good about playing with them and helping get their zoomies out. My cat, Pebble, takes medication and Kim is a real trooper! Pebble can be difficult when it comes time for her meds, but Kim is always very patient and gentle. I highly recommend her!
Huei D was so incredibly amazing taking care of our finicky black 14 year old cat. She made friends so quickly and was always responsive and gave us updates throughout our trip. I honestly think Nyx is going to be disappointed when we come home to not get daily visits from her new friend. Recommend completely!
Lauren came highly recommended by our regular pet sitter when she wasn’t available, and that recommendation stands true. Lauren is a great communicator, took great care of Chicken Nugget, and embraced his quirky personality. She also went above and beyond to keep our house clean and tidy. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services in the future!
Bethlyn was very communicative and accommodating! She was mindful of both mine and Sasha’s preferences, and provided detailed updates with lots of pictures everyday, that was really appreciated! Will definitely rebook, it was an entirely stress free trip for me knowing Sasha was taken care of. :)
Julissa is wonderful! She took good care of my cat’s needs while we were away. Our cat is shy that he always hid away when strangers were in the house. But surprisingly he came to greet Julissa when she visited and even stayed close to her the entire time! That was the FIRST TIME we’ve ever seen! So she must have some magic that could make our cat very comfortable. Will rebook in the future!
Last year, we had another kitten, and when we traveled, we asked Kyle to take care of him. Unfortunately, we later lost him, and after that we got two new kittens. Thankfully, Kyle has been helping us take care of them as well. As always, she was amazing. She stayed longer when needed, and she even helped bring our package upstairs when I asked her. She is incredibly kind, very easy to communicate with, and always responds quickly. We are so happy to have someone we can truly trust, so we can travel comfortably knowing our kittens are safe and well cared for with her.
Angelica is AWESOME!!! She took care of my newly adopted cat twice during a day when I was away all day. It was so great to get the photos and text each visit. My cat Sadie loved playing with her!! Sadie ate and drank water while Angelica was at my house, showing me how comfortable she was with her. Angelica had a huge heart and I feel blessed she took care my sweet Sadie!💛 P.s. Angelica is a 10 star pet sitter and human being !!!
Thien-Nha is absolutely wonderful and I’m so lucky to have found her. She’s reliable, responsive, and incredibly kind. Even my super shy kitty came out of hiding to say hello when Thien-Nha came over. I feel she really goes above and beyond for our pets and that is simply invaluable. Will definitely hire her again for our next trip.
