“Kimberline was a the perfect host for our Sadie. Our dog ran into her house and never looked back. When we picked her up she was happy to see me, but ai knew she missed Kimberline and her family.”

About: I am currently available to walk, run, and play with your dog on the weekends! I love dogs and have my own 2 large Golden Retrievers who loves long walks and (attempting) to catch squirrels. Finn is 8 and Arfur is 1.5! Owning larger dogs, I know how to handle/control a stronger dog while walking and playing. Having my own pet, I will always treat other animals the way I would want my own to be treated- with love and care. I have grown up living with and caring for mostly larger breeds (Retrievers) but I love meeting new furry friends, big or small, and have experience taking care of both! I know it's difficult leaving pets alone all day but my flexible schedule allows me to walk and take care of your dogs whenever needed on the weekends. I am here to ease your mind and allow your pups to play and get some exercise while parents are away! I have two dogs of my own who get daily walks and a lot of snuggles and playtime! We are on a good schedule with my hybrid work schedule and makes sure to give them exercise whenever I can! I'm always working on training with them using treats and play, especially my 1.5 year old. I'll treat your pets like my own! They lead me on their walks and I will allow them (safely) to explore and do what they wish. Please let me know any aggressions and if they can be near other dogs while walking! There will be no rock and blade of grass that will be un-sniffed. **I live in a house converted into an apartment. I live upstairs and my neighbor lives on the basement floor. He does smoke inside the house but we are a smokeless household and do our best to keep the smell out and we never smell it on ourselves/things/furniture/clothes/etc. **

“Gina was amazing! This was my first time leaving Kobi with someone who isn’t family so I was initially a bit nervous. The second I met her that immediately went away. Gina is such a wonderful person and throughout Kobi’s stay she kept me updated on how the puppers was doing. Her home was gorgeous and her backyard was every dog’s happy place. Again, thank you so much for treating my sweet girl as if she was your own.”


About: In this past year I’ve been caring for a friends 3 legged dog. She needs extra loving, patience and care that I’m fully able to provide to her and others. My weekends are always open. I’m able to accept last minute requests as well. I’ll work around your schedule. Please reach out to me with any questions! I don’t have any pets, so I’m able to give yours my full attention. I do have a teenager that might come along for a walk, just a heads up.


“Sandy is kind, trusting , and provided the best care for our French bulldog. She sent pictures and messages daily. I will be using Sandy every time I go away. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was in good care. I would highly recommend her and she deserves 5+ stars.”


“Syriah is an amazing dog sitter who has always gone above and beyond for my senior shepherd. I can relax knowing that my dog is in good hands with her and she is excellent with texting updates and photos. Its so hard leaving him but my dog is always very excited to see her and happily walks away with her despite having some seperation anxiety.”



About: My family and I believe a dog needs 100% love and attention. Your dog will be walked feed and played with for the time you choice. We will send a daily picture that candid with your dog. As a family we like to give each old a mini of 3 hours of dedicated time as side from feeding and tidying up. My day starts a 4am. When your dog wakes up I tend to feed at their normal time. I would follow your walk schedule and even continue habitual training if you are currently doing so. All areas are pet safe and closed off. I have a fenced yard. Walks are usually a minimum of 30 mins but if your puppy is very active we would walk longer as needed

“We had a wonderful experience with Eric and Valerie watching our dog, Hooper, for an extended weekend. From the initial meet and greet, it was clear they genuinely care about pets. They took the time to understand Hooper's needs and routines, which put us at ease. Throughout our time away, they kept us updated with daily pictures and messages, showing how much fun Hooper was having. Their attentiveness and affection made a world of difference. We couldn't have asked for better sitters and will definitely reach out to them again in the future!”


“Joanne was amazing ! Our puppy Layla stayed with her for two nights in her home. We were a little apprehensive about leaving her seeing this was our first time leaving her alone but Joanne made us feel 100% comfortable and took great care of my pup. she sent us pics multiple times during Her stay. My puppy came home happy which is exactly was I was hoping for. Highly recommend her service she is a true dog lover !”


About: I don’t just watch dogs — I build trust with them. What sets me apart is my ability to quickly bond with animals and understand their unique personalities and needs. I treat every dog like family, providing consistent routines, safe environments, and plenty of love and attention. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs playtime or a senior dog that needs gentle care and patience, I adapt to each pet’s needs. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and communicate clearly with pet owners to ensure peace of mind while they’re away. Caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday routine — it doesn’t feel like a job, it’s just how I live. As a dog owner myself, I start and end each day with walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection. This daily rhythm gives me a deep understanding of what dogs need to feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether I’m dog sitting or with my own pup, I prioritize structure, exercise, and lots of love. Pet care isn’t something I fit in — it’s something I build my day around. Dogs in my care enjoy a secure, fenced yard where they can play and explore safely under supervision. Inside, I have a designated, cozy space set up just for them — perfect for rest, quiet time, or when they need a break. Whether we’re outside for fresh air or relaxing indoors, every part of my home is set up with a dog’s safety and comfort in mind. I make sure each pet feels right at home while staying in a clean, calm, and loving environment

“Best, most caring, passionate dog lovers ever! Lisa and Michael were so much more loving than we could have hoped for to care for our Carrie. Very responsive and sent lots of pictures. They will be hosting her again soon!”


“Alyssa is the best dog sitter! Our dog Zeke stayed with her for two nights so far, she sends us updates and pictures of him hourly! Highly recommend her services. We will be using her in the future.”

She sent photos each day and I was happy to see April with other dogs in a well maintained play area . I would gladly board April with Christine again.”


About: We have always been a multiple pet family home with larger dogs. Mastiffs, rotty's, boxers etc. I realize how busy the day can get and happy to provide assistance to your 4-legged friends when needed. I work a hybrid schedule which allows for helping other busy pet parents throughout the week with boarding, visits etc. Easily accessible and highly responsive to your needs. I have a fenced in yard where I monitor my own dog in addition to taking him out on a leash to walk him as needed.

“I felt safe leaving my 17 month old Newfie in Daniel’s hands straight away! He has a really great set-up for the dogs - lots of outdoor space to play and brings them indoors when weather permits. He has cameras all around the property too. I was given updates daily and I knew I could relax that my baby was being looked after. I always worry about the other dogs but Daniel is responsible, knowledable, and seems to intuively know how to handle the animals under his care. I would book with Daniel again when the situation arises! Highly recommend!!!”


“Lauren and Howard were absolutely amazing with my dog Brody! From the start, they were incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and made me feel so comfortable leaving Brody in their care. They kept me updated throughout his stay with lots of adorable pictures and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Brody clearly felt right at home with them and was so happy and well-cared for. I can’t recommend Lauren and Howard enough — they truly went above and beyond! I would 100% trust them to watch Brody again.”
