Doris clearly loves and understands dogs, and we could tell she went above and beyond to make sure Giorgie felt at home.

“Susan is absolutely awesome. You can tell she really cares about your dog and she does everything she can to make the stay comfortable and enjoyable for your pup. I know my sweet senior dog had a great time with her and got plenty of attention, treats, and beautiful scenic walks.

This was my first time with Susan but it definitely won’t be my last!”

“Isabella was great! I was nervous leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know but her past reviews made me feel more comfortable.

“Shawn has been incredibly reliable and supportive, she really pulled through for me and my special needs pup when my travel plans got bumped up and I needed to book a last minute stay. My dog is super shy and skittish, but warmed up very quickly to Shawn and her dogs, even wagging her tail when I dropped her off. Shawn was quick to respond to my inquiry, accommodating of my dog’s needs, communicative with updates during her stay, and very kind when my return flight got delayed. I am so relieved to have found someone I can trust with my sensitive baby and highly recommend Shawn as your next pup sitter!”


About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and have several years of experience dog sitting for friends, family, and local pet owners. I’m comfortable with all kinds of breeds and sizes, whether it’s a playful pup or a laid back senior dog. I stick to your dog’s routine and make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. I love dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I would love to give any dog lots of attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles, whatever they need to feel loved and cared for. I’m also reliable, clean, and respectful of their space and your dog’s needs. Your pup isn’t just a guest,they’re family while they’re with me. I’m home throughout the week and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give your dog plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Whether your pup needs a consistent routine, extra cuddles, or just someone nearby to make them feel safe, I’ll be there. I live in a two bedroom apartment with a living room that gives your dog plenty of space to relax, nap, or play. I make sure my home is pet safe, with no hazards and lots of soft spots for lounging. Dogs are welcome on the couch and can stay in whatever space makes them feel most at ease whether that’s their crate, a dog bed, or right by my side. Since I’m home full time, your dog will never feel alone. I stick to their routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and I keep them company throughout the day.
