About: Proficient in providing dogs with stimulating and safe walks. Meticulous in following schedules with feeding. Comfortable and experienced in administering oral and topical medications. Knowledgable in basic dog first aid and safety protocols. As an owner of a 5 year old Golden Retriever since puppy age, and dog sitter, I have taken the responsibility of taking care of any dog! I strictly follow eating schedules and/or medication schedules. I pay as much attention as possible, as an owner of a golden this is a must! I make sure I leave a safe environment for my doggies. I attend to their needs whether it is to be by themselves, or get all the playing time they need!
About: Hi! I would love to take care of your dog like he/she was one of my own! I love all animals and so does my family! I have had pets and dogs since I was a child and so has my husband. I am a stay at home mom at the moment and my husband works full time. We live in a single family home. We recently lost our 14year old mini schnauzer, he is the one in our photo gallery. Someone who will always be with me is my daughter, who is one year old and my son who is 5 years old. Please contact me with any questions. I am currently a stay at home mom and will be able to walk your dog or let them out in our yard through out the day. We have a yard and a senior dog to keep your dog some company. We also have a crate if that will keep your pet more comfortable.
“Having had such an excellent experience previously with Debra, it was easy dropping our two dogs off for an overnight stay. Once again, she had good communication and she sent photos so that I could see what a good time they were having. It's nice to know your dogs are in good hands.”
“Haley was absolutely amazing! She was able to accommodate us last minute, which was such a relief. From the very beginning, her communication was outstanding—she kept me updated regularly, which gave me so much confidence that my dog was happy and well cared for. Her own dog is super chill and friendly, and the welcoming atmosphere created by her other family members made my dog feel right at home. Even though I didn’t know Haley very well at first, her attentiveness and warm family setting made it clear my dog was in great hands. I highly recommend Haley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Our dog Lance was cared for by Jo and her husband Mike. We were extremely happy with the care he received while we were on vacation. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Carter was great! Very responsive and sent updates about Eloise’s stay. She seems like she had a blast- going on hikes, playing with the other pups - given how tuckered out she is now :) thank you!”
“Matt took good care of our dog while we were away - good communication with us, saw to all our dig's needs, very smooth all round. Highly recommended.”
“Yeojin was a great caretaker for my boy. I extended my trip twice and she was very flexible in accommodating our needs. She sent me updates throughout the day and the best part is Leo made a new buddy, Smudge. Will definitely use her again when traveling. Thank you for your time and patience. ❤️?”

Tatiana V.
“I highly recommend Tatiana as a responsible and loving dog sitter. She has been amazing with our golden retriever, Gracie — from making sure she’s well-fed and exercised to giving her all the love and attention she needs. She’s patient, dependable, and always on top of walks, feedings, and playtime when we are away or on vacation. Gracie absolutely adores her, and it’s clear she has a natural connection with animals. Anyone who leaves their dog in her care can feel confident they’re in great hands!”
Giannina S.
“Giannina has watched our 6-year-old schnauzer, Miles, twice and he loved every minute! She gave Miles such love and attention the entire time and he came back home after our long trips a very happy and healthy dog. She kept me in the loop with pictures and updates of what he was doing with her family and it gave me peace of mind knowing that our little baby was being taken care of. Giannina was also super accommodating when our flight was delayed and again this alleviated all our stress from traveling away from our little pup. Giannina is a loving, kind, and excellent with all pups! Highly recommend her!”
