1. Gracie M.

“Gracie was wonderful with my dog! She took him in for daycare two days, back to back. On the first day, the minute I left him he was crying because he didn't want me to leave - and on the second day, he ran towards her wagging his tail, happy as can be! Will definitely be booking her in the future!”


2. Krista & Roger B.

“Krista and Roger are our wonderful neighbors, and we recently started using them for occasional daycare for our dog, Grover. Grover loves spending time with Shyloh and their whole family. Krista’s incredibly responsive to my requests and any questions I have. We know Grover’s safe and loved when he visits Krista and Roger’s home!”


3. Anna & Sebastian T.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Anna provided for my pets while I was away! From the moment we met, it was clear she had a genuine love for animals and a professional, responsible approach to pet sitting. Throughout my time away, she kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. My pets were happy, well-fed, and clearly well cared for when I returned. It’s so reassuring to know that I can count on Anna to provide such loving and attentive care. I highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and reliable pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again! She is truly a pet whisperer. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Coco was loved and communication was on point. I’ll be more than happy to bring her back for Laura to take care of her. Thank you Laura for loving my baby”


5. Courtney S.

“Courtney and her partner were amazing! Extremely communicative, flexible, responsible and on time. Bentley warmed up to them and enjoyed seeing them!”


6. Nicole L.
“Nicole is the perfect person to ask to take care of your pet. She cares for nothing more than your pet’s happiness and health, and will go above and beyond for them. When she’s not cooing over how cute other animals are, she’s spoiling her own fur-baby, Bobby. I can’t recommend anyone better than her.”


7. Jia Shu P.

“Kayak had a great time. Great back yard where he could explore and wonderful Jia and Paul taking care. 😀 I like when Kayak has a smile on his face.”


8. Andrea R.

“Andrea is great!! Casper felt right at home with her immediately which put me at ease. I will definitely trust Andrea with Casper again in the future!”


9. Summer W.

“Summer is the best! My dog absolutely loves her and is always so excited to see her. Summer takes good care of her and provides cute pictures”

About: Hi there, I work from home, so I am available 7 days a week to help you. If you need help immediately, I can help you. You can call me same-day and as long as I’m not already booked, I’ll be happy to assist you. I set the app for 1-day notice, just in case I miss your message, though. I can work with all dogs and cats. I’ve never met a pet I didn’t like, or one who didn’t like me. By hiring me, you’ll be getting an experienced, reliable, and caring former pet owner who has spent over 21 years caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I’ve been through every stage of pet ownership—from raising playful, high-energy puppies to managing the care of senior pets with special needs. I have experience with everything from overly scared dogs to aggressive dogs who need special care. Having experienced the joys and challenges of owning pets, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust to care for your pet family members. I also understand how hard it can be to leave your loved ones in someone else’s care. This comes from both my time as a pet owner and my decade of experience caring for my father with dementia. Managing his daily needs, medical emergencies, and end-of-life care taught me to stay calm under pressure, handle complex medical situations, and always put compassion first—qualities I bring to every pet I care for. I’ve handled a wide range of pet needs, including administering medications, from pills to post-surgical care, as well as managing emergencies like seizures and poison control. I always ensure that pets are happy and healthy with long walks, trips to the dog park, and plenty of playtime. I’ve provided baths when asked to do so, and made sure every pet feels safe and loved. Whether it’s a high-energy dog that needs plenty of exercise, or a senior pet that requires extra patience and care, I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs. People often call me a “dog whisperer” because pets naturally gravitate toward me—likely because I genuinely love spending time with them. Currently, I’m taking a break from full-time pet ownership but miss having animals in my life. Offering my services is my way of staying connected to pets while helping you feel at ease when you need to be away. You can trust me to treat your pets like family, keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable at all times. I’m available every day. Call me anytime. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home, and animals are something I truly enjoy and prioritize. While I don’t currently own pets, I’ve designed my schedule to allow me plenty of flexibility to care for animals between my work commitments. Whether it’s taking dogs on long walks, providing companionship during the day, or ensuring they’re comfortable overnight, I’m able to dedicate focused time to their needs. I do have to travel from time to time for business purposes, so it’s better if you get in touch with me in advance as opposed to booking same day, just to make sure I don’t have to be in another city or country. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. I take every step to ensure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. If you have special instructions for me, by all means, please let me know, and I will follow them with great attention to detail. In my home, I provide a calm, dog-friendly environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. My space is free of hazards, with secure areas for play and rest, as well as a fenced outdoor area. It’s an apartment though, so it’s not a huge patio area, which is why I normally take dogs to the dog park to run around and socialize. I monitor pets closely to ensure all their needs are met, whether it’s feeding, walks, medicine, or quiet time. I also maintain a clean and sanitized environment to keep it healthy for every pet that stays with me. As mentioned, I follow the owner’s specific instructions to ensure their pets are comfortable and maintain their regular routines. I treat them with the utmost respect, and I’m happy to I provide regular updates, including photos and videos upon request to build trust and give owners peace of mind. Each pet receives personalized care, from feeding schedules to exercise and medication requirements. Regardless of where I care for pets, I treat them like family. My goal is to ensure they always feel safe, cared for, and loved, so owners can rest assured their companions are in good hands.

12. Polina S.
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child. I am passionate about dog walking and sitting and am looking forward to working with your cuddly pet! I work from home full time and am able to take adequate care of your fur babies and give them my undivided attention with lots of cuddles and walks. I am fully aware on the safety requirements regarding pets and I can look out for the warning signs of a dog who is under stress. My home is safe and I have all day to take long walks with them!


13. Weiwei L.

“Wei Wei is very dependable and kind. She always walks the dogs and tells me things about my dog's day. She also doesn't take on too many dogs at once, which means she has more time to devote to each pet.”


14. Carlos C.

“They were great! They kept me updated with a bunch of photos of my dog. They were very accommodating when I have to move my drop off up a few hours. If I am in town again, I will use them again.”

16. Jee Young L.
About: I have been fostering puppies for the past two years, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, from newborns to seniors. During this time, I have cared for dogs with a wide range of personalities and needs, including shy and timid dogs, those with separation anxiety, highly independent dogs, and even some with mild aggression. This experience has taught me how to read canine body language, build trust, and provide personalized care based on each dog's unique temperament. Whether it's helping a nervous dog feel safe, keeping up with an energetic pup, or offering extra patience and comfort to a senior dog, I am dedicated to ensuring every pet feels loved and well cared for. My experience with training puppies, including potty training and basic commands, also sets me apart as a patient and attentive caregiver. Pet care is a full-time weekend job for me.I tailor bathroom breaks based on each dog's age and needs, ensuring they get outside regularly. I also provide daily exercise through long walks and playtime, either indoors or in a fenced backyard. Keeping pets happy, active, and well-cared for is my priority! I provide dedicated, one-on-one care in a pet-friendly home with a fenced backyard, ensuring a safe and stress-free environment. Since I only accept one dog at a time, your pet will receive my full attention, personalized care, and plenty of playtime. With no other pets in my home, your dog can feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for during their stay.

“Monica is an amazing dog walker! She is an active and hard-working woman who loves to surround herself with any animal, she has a deep love for my puppy and takes her on long wonderful walks all the time! She is an amazing and trustworthy person with a heart of gold and a perfect moral compass!”


20. Medha G.
“Medha is very passionate about the dogs she takes care of. She has a lot of experience working with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, making her very well prepared to take care of any dog. She will go out of her way to make sure a dog is happy and getting it what it needs. I have been in a club at school with her in which we train service dogs, where I have seen her practice and work with many dogs, gaining lots of experience handling them and learning how to be well in tune with their behaviors and needs. I would certainly recommend Medha to anyone who needs dog sitting.”
