“Sunny was a wonderful dog sitter! She was friendly and attentive. She made our family feel comfortable leaving our 15 year old dog when we were away on vacation. She communicated daily sending updates and pictures. We can tell Caesar had a great time. Thank you Sunny for taking such good care of our dog. We will definitely use Sunny again in the future!”


“Denise did an excellent job watching Beckham! He’s high-energy and loves everyone, and she made him feel right at home. Denise was thorough, taking extra time at both drop-off and pick-up to ensure all details were communicated clearly. She also provided frequent updates, which made me feel comfortable knowing Beckham was in great hands. Highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”



“Vivian and her hubby always take wonderful care of Stormy and provide great communication! They were available last minute and I am so grateful! We will keep using them! Thank you!”


“Lucy was awesome! Always friendly and kept in communication at all times with pictures and videos of our fur baby. Would definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs. Thank you Lucy!”


“Priscilla was wonderful with our 65lb four year old shepard mix. She shared pictures and was very communicative. We are planning to book her again next time we are out of town!”


“Oksana took amazing care of our good boy. She was super helpful! Communication was a breeze and she sent cute pictures. We absolutely will utilize her loving care in the future.”


“Tere was amazing with our 4 month old puppy. She sent us photos and videos frequently that put our minds at ease. My puppy was happy, healthy and clean throughout the stay and after. Will definitely book again.”


“Yesenia did a great job of looking after Charlie for a few days. He loved playing with her dog as well as other dogs that she was sitting. I highly recommend!”


“Elizabeth and Oleg were everything we looked for and found for our dog, Ralph. When we search for somebody to leave him with, that person must have a fenced in yard and be fine to take him on a walk or two each day. It’s what he’s used to now and it’s what we feel most comfortable with when leaving him for an extended period of time. Elizabeth and Oleg provided both of these AND plenty of photos along the way to let us know that Ralph was enjoying his stay. 10/10 would recommend them if you’re looking for somebody to watch your furry friend.”

About: It’s been many years taken care of pets specially my own Dog and Cat. I have even taken care of friends and family pets overnight and they love being in my loving and cared home. I am currently working a full time job. But I am available for boarding on weekends with a big yard for them to play and run. I have a closed fenced yard for pets to run and play. I also have a small friendly dog and cat. I have a crate if they need to be crated but usually I don’t like crate.

“Denise is the best! She has watched Sasha for me a few times now and Sasha always is well taken care of and very happy! She keeps me updated and goes out of her way to make it a good stay!! I would 10000% recommend her to anyone looking for a good sitter”


“Andrew is not only a great dog sitter but really gets to know your dog and their quirks. Our dog has not cared for other dogs but Andrew slowly got him to socialize. Also, he really met all his needs being an active dog - jogs, in home exercises. He also shared lots of videos and photos which gave us piece of mind while away. Thank you Andrew!”


About: Hi, I'm Vivian! I've been caring for pets for over 10 years—everything from energetic puppies to wise senior pets. I have personal experience with a variety of breeds, including Pomskies, Labradors, and cats with special needs.

Let me help make your time away stress-free—for both you and your pet! Pet care is my full-time focus, and working from home gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether it's morning walks, midday playtime, or evening routines, I’m able to stay present and responsive to each pet’s needs.

Basically, your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priority—whether they’re hanging out with me or waiting for you at home!

“Bryndon was terrific with Rome. We needed a new sitter for a 5 day, 4 night stay and Bryndon took the time to get to know Rome beforehand, asked excellent questions in preparation (as well as answering all of my questions), and handled Rome’s separation anxiety with being away from us flexibly and creatively so this was relieved quickly. Bryndon also communicated clearly and was entirely receptive to feedback. By the end of the stay when we picked Rome up, I could tell they had formed a bond and Rome has a new buddy in the nearby neighborhood. I’m so glad we met Bryndon. His jokes and updates on Rome were amazing , especially since I love humor and silly puns. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Bryndon for drop-ins, walks and future stays.”


“Vinny is great!! Barli stayed with Vinny for 10 days and we were sent frequent updates, pictures, and videos. You can trust that Vinny will treat your pup like his own and take great care of them while you’re away.”


About: I have had many pets before and I grew up around dogs. I had many dogs at home and I have much experience with them! I spend much time at home, with my kids who absolutely love dogs! I will definitely give your dog an unforgettable time at our home! I have a big fenced yard, where your dog will enjoy playing and receive much love (don't worry, they will definitely be pampered a lot)!

“Jessica and Avi gave Lexi great care. Communication within minutes, super detail oriented and very sweet. They get to know you and your dog personally. We will absolutely work with them again. Convenient for us but worth a trip for sure. Thank you so very much!”
