About: I have fostered over 30 dogs for various shelters and have had my share of pets while doing so. I have been in other people's homes while watching their fur children trying to be there and working on training using games like fetch, or find it. I currently work at a doggy daycare and am currently doing online courses for canine behavior and training. I do have three years on my own with dog training and a total of 9 years dog training with shelters I try not disrupt their schedule while pet parents are gone. Dogs need a routine but when parents go on vacation or business trip, they will need a loving distraction until they get home

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 15, starting with my family dog, and now I have Nacho, my big baby! Over the years, I've had the pleasure of dog-sitting many pups. My husband and I both love dogs, and Nacho loves them too! I believe discipline and training are key for dogs, and I always make sure to put in the effort to ensure my dog is well-trained. I'm proud to say that my dog trainer considers Nacho to be in the top 1%! 😎 I currently have two part time remote jobs that are very flexible. I have the ability to make most things work. Pet sitting would not be hard to fit into my routine. I have a fenced yard in my home. My house is located in a neighborhood with plenty of parks around. I also believe that following house rules is really important so I’m willing to be directed in whatever preference someone might have for their own home.

About: *Felix crossed the Rainbow Bridge on 7/3/25* -He passed peacefully at home with the one who loved him the most by his side- Hi! Long time dog lover here. I have a loyal senior hound named Felix. Since Felix and I both love all the pups, we regularly dog sit for all our best friends. We specialize in walks around the neighborhood, snack time, and cuddles on the couch. As a mom to an older dog, I feel most comfortable caring for senior dogs. I am currently home full-time, so I’ll be able to provide your pet with plenty of attention. I am available to house sit over night on a case by case basis, but would prefer to board your pet in my home if possible. I have a large fenced in backyard. It is not a privacy fence, so if your pup is an escape artist this may not be the best spot for them. I live on the bottom floor of a very old house that was flipped into two apartments. It’s nothing fancy. I have an upstairs neighbor who can be a bit noisy and will likely be around the property. My space is also home to over 100 tropical houseplants. Please consider if your dog will be curious about these as most are toxic to dogs. I am happy to accommodate and do some rearranging to ensure safety if you have concerns. Your dogs emotional and physical well being are of the utmost importance to me. I can assure you they will be watched carefully and shown lots of love. I know that they are very special family members, and will be treated as such! I am also happy to respect and follow any rules you may have in place for your dog.

“Brent is the best! My dog was jumping out of the car to get to his house in the mornings. He is super knowledgeable about dogs and seems to genuinely enjoy caring for them. Anyone would be in good hands with him!”


“Lauren was so wonderful to my baby Astro! He came home super tired. I don’t think he even missed me because of how much fun he had with her and her dog! Overall a great experience we will definitely be back!”


“Rachel was awesome! She answered my request fast, and accommodated watching my dog on very short notice. She sent me pictures right away, was communicative and super sweet. Will definitely be using her again!”
