25. Rania H.
“I've known Rania for a while now, and I can tell you firsthand how much she loves animals. It's not just a job for her; it's a genuine passion. In fact, she's even been a huge help to me with my mini poodle, Calla. Rania has shared some really insightful tips with a first time pet owner that have really made training so much smoother. She just gets dogs and their different personalities. When it comes to pets she notices everything and genuinely cares about their well-being. Plus, she's fantastic at keeping in touch – you'll get those adorable updates and photos that put your mind at ease when you're away.”

He’s one of the most compassionate and responsible people I know, and his love for animals shines through in everything he does. Having worked at Petco, Andrew has tons of experience with animals and understands how to care for them properly. He’s patient, attentive, and always goes the extra mile to make sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust him with my own pets, and I know any pet parent would be lucky to have Andrew looking after their pets!”


27. Kierra C.
About: With over 27 years of hands-on experience in animal care, I have dedicated much of my life to nurturing, raising, and understanding the needs of a wide variety of animals. From a young age, I was immersed in environments that required consistent, compassionate care for pets, developing a deep-rooted passion and natural intuition for animal welfare. Throughout the years, I’ve gained extensive experience in feeding, grooming, administering basic medications, and observing animal behavior for signs of distress or illness. My approach is always centered around patience, empathy, and attention to individual needs—ensuring that every animal in my care feels safe, loved, and well-cared for. I currently have a beloved fur baby of my own, who receives the highest standard of care and attention. This personal commitment reflects the level of dedication I bring to all animals under my supervision. Whether it’s routine care or emotional comfort, I pride myself on creating a nurturing and structured environment for every animal. As a lifelong animal lover and experienced caregiver, pets are an integral part of my everyday life. My home is not just a place for my own beloved fur baby—it's a welcoming, safe, and nurturing environment for any pet in my care. Because of my personal commitment to animal well-being, I’m home the majority of the time, which allows me to provide constant supervision, companionship, and routine check-ins throughout the day. When boarding with me, your pet will experience a comfortable, secure, and engaging home environment—both indoors and outdoors. Inside, pets enjoy a cozy, climate-controlled space where they are treated like family. I maintain a clean and organized home, with designated pet-friendly areas for rest, play, and feeding. Whether your fur baby prefers quiet time or interactive play, I tailor the indoor experience to meet their individual needs, including any special care routines or accommodations. Outdoors, your pet will have access to a fully fenced-in yard—perfect for safe exploration, exercise, and fresh air. The space is ideal for dogs who love to run, play fetch, or simply lounge in the sun. Supervised outdoor time is incorporated into the daily routine, ensuring plenty of opportunities for physical activity and mental stimulation. In addition, I have a friendly, well-socialized dog who can serve as a playful companion if your pet enjoys the company of others. However, I also understand that not all pets are social butterflies, and I am fully prepared to keep them separated to ensure a calm and stress-free environment for everyone. Whether your pet thrives on companionship or prefers their own space, I adapt to what makes them most comfortable and secure.


28. Mildred E.
“Mildred is one of the most compassionate and responsible pet caregivers I’ve ever met. She has a natural connection with animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping pets company, she handles every task with patience and attention to detail. I’ve trusted her with my pets multiple times, and each time I’ve come home to happy, well-cared-for companions. If you’re looking for someone reliable and genuinely loving, I can’t recommend Mildred enough.”


29. Julina D.

“Julina is amazing and I wish I could give her 100 stars. She's taken care of my Samoyed previously and always done an amazing job. She's responsive, friendly, and sends frequent updates including photos. My dog is always well cared for when return. But I am especially grateful to her for her dependability, flexibility, and kindness. I was recently admitted to the hospital due to a medical emergency for a full week, and so caring for my dog during that time was a huge stress. I eventually reached out to Julina, and despite the immediacy of my request, she was more than willing to help. Words cannot express how much of a relief it was to know that my dog was being taken care of by great hands while I was in the hospital, and the photos she sent always brightened my day.”

32. Emily G.

“This was our first time being away from our recently rescued boy and our first time using a sitter. Emily was wonderful! She is communicative, kind, and Cowboy took to her right away during the meet and greet. I highly recommend her!”


33. Candice & Jonathan E.

“Candice is such a big help and very professional. She goes above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and your animal is taken care of. She constantly sends you pictures and updates each visit. Highly recommend her! She is awesome!”


34. Shane K.
“As a new dog parent I was worried about hiring someone to take care of my dog while I was away but Shane put my mind at ease. She was clearly a dog loving person who took great care of my boy. Will definitely hire her again Adam”


35. Kendall S.

36. Celine O.
About: My name is Celine and I have loved dogs for all my life. I grew up with dogs from a young age and after much begging, my parents caved and got us our poodle mix, Snoopy, who gave us 14 of the best years. Last year, I welcomed my own fur baby into my home. His name is Samson and he is a golden retriever puppy. He is full of energy and love and he is the best thing that has ever happened to me! I’m truly passionate about dogs and dog behavior and know first hand how difficult it is to trust someone with your pet. You are in good hands! I’m a part time dental hygienist, so my schedule is flexible to help you care for your pets. I’m available for early morning or late afternoon walks and midday drop-ins. Every pet parent has their own personal set of boundaries, which I am happy to adhere to your pet’s needs. Personally, my puppy still sleeps in his crate and he loves it there. Additionally, he is allowed on all the furniture, but I respect all of the rules!


37. Gregg M.
“I am thrilled to share my thoughts about Gregg M. as a pet sitter and dog walker. Gregg has always had a natural affinity for animals, and it truly shows in the way he interacts with pets. He is patient, loving, and attentive, making sure that every dog he cares for feels comfortable and valued. What sets Gregg apart is his commitment to understanding each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog, he knows how to tailor his approach to ensure they receive the right amount of exercise, care, and affection. His experience in handling different breeds and temperaments gives pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry friends are in capable hands. Gregg is also reliable and punctual, always showing up on time and ready to engage with the dogs he walks. His enthusiasm for outdoor adventures means your pup will get plenty of playtime and exercise, which is essential for their well-being. I wholeheartedly recommend Gregg M. for any pet sitting or dog walking needs. Pet parents can trust that their beloved companions will be cared for with the utmost attention and love.”


38. Grace S.
“Grace is a compassionate animal lover and has been a wonderful mother to 3 cats and 3 dogs for many years. She is very observant, organized, and attentive, and she will take great care of your pets! Our dogs jump for joy when she comes into the room, and she has a special appreciation for all kinds of animals. Highly recommend!”
