About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a natural love for caring for pets. Growing up, I had many pets of my own, and I also helped neighbors by checking in on their pets while they were away feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they felt comfortable and cared for. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will treat your pet like my own by providing them with attention, patience, and lots of love. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away! I currently work as a teacher assistant and I’m also a part-time student, so I stay pretty busy but, I always make time for things I care about. I’m available during school breaks, some weekends, and throughout the summer, and I’m committed to being reliable and consistent when I take on a booking. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. I have a large fenced yard where pets can run around, play, and get their energy out safely. I have an above ground salt water pool if your pet likes to swim in the water. I also love taking dogs on walks, and I live in a very walkable, quiet, and safe neighborhood that is perfect for getting fresh air and exercise. I make sure each pet gets the attention they need, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just relaxing and keeping them company. I pay close attention to their routine, behavior, and any specific instructions you provide so they feel as comfortable as possible.

About: I love spending time with dogs, I prioritize going above and beyond to ensure your fur baby feels comfortable and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent updates with photos and videos throughout the day to keep you informed about your pet’s activities and well-being. I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding and/or for just a fun day care at anytime. I maintain a flexible schedule to maintain your pet’s needs. With a fenced in yard, I can provide regular exercise to help your pet stay fit, strong and keep those tails wagging. In my home your pet will have a safe and cozy place to stay.

“My dog is so comfortable with Cynthia! Although there are big dogs at her house, she has gating throughout the house and yard to ensure that a little dog is always feeling safe!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Veronique and Jonathan! They were amazing with my puppy, Oakley, providing her with exceptional doggy day care. They kept her active, engaged, and ensured she was well taken care of throughout the day. It was such a relief to know Oakley was in loving, capable hands. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch care!”

About: Unfortunately my dog Buster recently passed away and the house is so quiet without any pets so I have lowered my prices to make services more available and increase chances of getting to spoil your dog! I’ve taken care of dogs small and medium dogs for over 15 years. I have a flexible work from home job so your dog will be with me 24/7 during their stay! I have a lot of experience with long term stays! I only accept one customer at a time to ensure I offer the best individualized focus, love, and care that your dog(s) deserves! Lastly, I maintain Buster’s Fi tracker subscription renamed as Buster’s friends. This is an optional free service that I offer. I have different sized collar attachments so that your dog can wear it during their stay. This allows me to share access to your dogs statistics and location during their stay if it will help to ease any anxieties you may have! I have a flexible work from home job Monday-Friday. I am able to take your dog out for walks as often as needed. I will not leave your dogs side throughout their entire stay! Dogs do not have any limitations in our home so they are welcome to roam freely and snuggle up on the most comfortable couch or bed they can find! We have a fully fenced backyard with doggy door access to allow unlimited bathroom trips and plenty of room to play!

“Alana and family were great hosts for our little Xena. They treated her like family and took care of her without any issue. They have an adorable doggy area, went on walks and cuddled a bunch! Xena was very happy :) thank you and can’t wait for our next stay!”

“Fantastic person, loves what she does and it shows. I could not have asked for a more loving person to watch over my two little cockapoos. Pamela sent me photos throughout the stay to show how happy they were, and to keep me comfortable knowing they were well taken care of. Will be coming back for a visit soon! Thanks, Pamela!”

About: Hi! I'm Cat, and it is my literal pleasure to care for your dog, cat, lizard, bunny, or parrot! What you can expect from me: -Fast, clear, and concise executive-level communication. -Deep breed-specific knowledge of behavior underpinned by my time as a vet receptionist -High quality photos -Easy, flexible scheduling -Complete focus and attention to detail -Genuine joy and enthusiasm to care for your pet In my previous life, I was a design program manager within corporate tech (Meta, Comcast, Pinterest), and I'm thrilled and privileged to pivot into pet care. I have cared for dogs of every size, flavor, and temperament. I have extensive experience training dogs, and quite frankly, I've watched a whole lot of Westminster dog show. In particular, I have specialized experience with shy or nervous dogs and will provide them the space and understanding needed to relax and feel comfortable. I am happy to walk or jog to help burn canine energy. Not afraid to get down in the dirt and play! I have been deeply involved in cat rescue since 2020, when I began working remotely. I have fostered dozens of cats over the years. This includes kittens with complex medical issues. I am very capable at medicating cats and kittens as well as identifying when a cat may be feeling unwell. When you board with me, your pet will not be left alone for more than 1 hour. I only board pets from one household at a time and provide dedicated personal care. When your baby is at my house, they are family. Feel free to reach out with any additional questions. I'm currently working remotely doing project-based contract work, so I have plenty of availability and scheduling flexibility. If boarding or house-sitting, I will be fully available and no pet will be left alone longer than an hour. I have a friendly chihuahua mix (8 lbs) and 2 cats, but if needed, I have plenty of room to give everyone their own space. I have an unfenced backyard with plenty of room to romp. Dogs will always be leashed or tethered in yard.

“Melissa was great. Winnie had a great time and made a new friend. This was are first time leaving him with someone and Melissa sent us messages and pictures easing our minds. Will trust Winnie with Melissa again without hesitation.”

“Theresa has been absolutely amazing, she takes care of Franny as if she were her own. She provides such a great environment and I’m fortunate to have her take care of my fur baby.”

About: I've always had a special connection with dogs. Ever since primary school, I volunteered to walk all my neighbors' dogs and would stay to play with them for hours—tug-of-war and frisbee were our favorites. I've walked dogs of all sizes, sometimes up to three at a time. Getting my own puppy was the best thing in the world for me, and I naturally have endless patience for animals. Throughout college, I walked and sat for my piano professor's dog for years—around the neighborhood, and I also drove him to dog parks and beaches. On top of that, I've volunteered at an animal shelter, cleaning dog and cat rooms and socializing with the animals. I currently can't have a dog of my own because I fly in and out for work. That's why I'm doing this part-time — it's never an assembly line for me. Each dog gets my full, individual attention, and I truly make friends with every one of them. I'm a sound designer and composer working on contract-based stage productions, which gives me a flexible schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine — I walk dogs at least three times a day, feed them as many times as requested, and make sure they get plenty of playtime outside of my work hours. Since I'm not working a rigid 9-to-5, I can easily adjust my day around each dog's needs, whether that means extra cuddles, a longer walk, or a spontaneous trip to the dog park. Plus, because I fly in and out for work and can't have my own dog right now, caring for other people's dogs is something I genuinely look forward to and prioritize every single day. I live in a first-floor condo apartment in a neighborhood with lots of green areas — perfect for dogs who love quick potty breaks and longer sniffing walks. I let dogs free roam throughout my home and they're absolutely allowed on furniture. I treat every dog as if they were my own, which means lots of freedom, comfort, and attention. Since I do this part-time, I never have more than two unfamiliar dogs at once, so each dog gets a calm, focused environment. I'm extremely respectful of their space and routines — I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions to the letter, and I always leave things cleaner than I found them.
