“We recently had the pleasure of entrusting Busara with the care of our 9-month-old kitten for five nights, and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From the outset, Busara demonstrated exceptional professionalism and genuine affection for our kitten. Throughout our trip, she kept us consistently informed, sending regular updates and photos that showcased our kitten’s well-being and playful moments. Her attentive communication provided us with peace of mind, knowing our pet was in caring and capable hands. Upon our return, it was evident that our kitten had been well-cared for, appearing content and healthy. Busara’s dedication and attention to detail exceeded our expectations, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter.”

“Jermaine was awesome! Our dog, Reese, is getting older and I feel like a traditional kennel is a little too loud & stressful for her. Leaving her with Jermaine gave us the peace of mind we needed. He was communicative and positive. She came home happy & healthy. We are very grateful and will absolutely use his services again”


“My family and I were in town for a couple of days and we needed a last minute dog sitter. Cait had some good reviews and so we decided to move forward and have her dog sit. She was awesome! Our dog had a great time and Cait said she enjoyed playing with her dogs. If we’re in town again, we would definitely reach out!!”


“Outstanding with the care that was given to our dogs Tempest and Peanut. I received updates everyday with pictures! They certainly looked happy and made themselves right at home even jumping on Janice’s lap ! We will definitely use them again whenever we decide to go away for even a weekend ! Thank you for all the love and care you gave Tempest and Peanut !♥️♥️”


“Our dog Zoe had the best weekend ever with Julie and family! Julie is so sweet, accommodating, and dog loving! Julie exceeded all expectations by far!, met all of Zoe’s needs and she was available on very short notice! Julie took Zoe in so we could have a weekend at the beach with family and we are so grateful to her for giving our senior dog such a loving and positive experience in her home! Julie even provided updates! Julie gave us the best gift of all, which was true relaxation free of worry!!”


About: I’ve had different types of dogs since I was young. I’ve trained dogs for all types of reasons. I’m a lover of all pups and can handle your dogs needs. I own a large property specifically for the environment, which is perfect for dogs. I look forward to meeting your doggie and returning a happy pup back to you. Please message for any details. I’m available on weekends and weeknights. I work full time M-F, so weekends are primarily open. While I can do many activities during the work week, I am gone about 8 hours for my primary job. Weeknights and weekends are available. I have a large property with plenty of room to roam. Chickens in the yard (in coop). I have a 6 year old pup of my own that is very docile, loves other animals and gets along with them easily, and is my number two. I don’t have a fence because my dog is perimeter trained. However, I can perimeter train your dog too or walk them on a leash if that is preferred. I plan to add a fence soon and will update this once I do.

“I cannot complain! I feel my dogs enjoyed their stay and was exhausted when they came home two days later. I also feel that my nuggets picked up a few commands that I was struggling with the last four years. Ryan has a beautiful and a very clean home. They have three beautiful bigger dogs of their own and I liked that my dogs had to learn to be around others. Thank you for the experience, will definitely use Ryan’s service again in the future.”


“Ember seemed very relaxed when we picked her up, but happy to see us. Thank you for taking care of our girl. I feel very calm leaving her with you while we are away. Until next time, thank you!”



About: I've been around animals as long as I can remember. I currently have a puppy named Star and three cats Persephone (Purrsi), Odin and Loki. I foster for the local QA shelter and have worked in a vets office for a short time. I am lucky enough to work out of my house or remote so I am available seven days a week with enough notice. I can come to you or provide care in my house. I live in an end unit Duplex. I have a fenced in yard complete with a puppy pool and beds for lounging. I can provide care in my home or come to yours. Following directions and care requests provided is not a problem.

“Vy was great! She sent photos and videos of sailor everyday and we didn’t question for a minute if he was having fun! Also, special thanks for Forrest for being the sweetest companion this past week!”


“Awesome, Gillian was very accommodating. I contacted her at the last minute to keep Digger one more day. She did and it allowed me spend some valuable time with my mother.”


“Ellen and her husband were amazing. Found them on Rover last minute after our other options fell through she was very accommodating and value of service was incredible. She stayed in contact with us during the week and sent pictures of Bodie throughout our 11 day vacation. They have a great property for dogs to run around and I will definitely be using them again!!!”

Seth G.
“Seth has been watching my dog for the past eight years, and I couldn’t ask for someone more dependable, attentive, and genuinely caring. He treats my dog like family, always making sure she’s well-cared for, loved, and happy while I’m away. Seth’s own dog, Ziggy, is the sweetest and loves other dogs. My pup always comes home tired from all the fun they have together! It’s such a comfort knowing she’s not just being looked after, but also enjoying herself. It’s hard to find someone you can trust so completely with your pet, and I feel incredibly lucky to have had Seth be such a consistent and caring presence in my dog’s life. I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone looking for a dedicated and loving pet caregiver”

“Ashley W is the best. I have 2 active large dogs, Maisie (6 years old) and Petey (7 years old), who she has taken care of since they were puppies. She has been there for learning manners, leash training, zoomies, park play time, and overnight stays. My dogs absolutely love her and look forward to more playtime with her. She is always on time, communicates with me about all the details, and makes sure my babies are well cared for while I'm gone. I never worry about my pups while they are with her. I highly recommend Ashley W.”
