Crystal (and her family) are fantastic! She is extremely communicative and flexible, and our dog loves spending time at her house. We really appreciate how often she is able to provide daycare. She provides regular updates and gets back to us really quickly. Our dog is always excited to get in the car to go to Crystal’s!

Bethany was THE BEST person for my dog. She has a very lovely home that is tidy and has created such a calming and welcoming vibe. Throughout the sit, she would keep me informed on what was going on and reassured my anxieties of leaving my dog with her. She listens and respects any of your requests. I could tell my dog had a lovely time with her because by the time I came to pick him up, he was hesitant to leave, which all the good signs that he felt at home. If I'm ever in the area again, Bethany would ultimately be my first choice. Thank you Bethany for all you've done to help my dog feel like it was another home and friend to visit.

About: I’ve been caring for my current dog for 5 years, previously I had a pup that I cared for 2 years. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk their pups, keep them fed on schedule. Those early experiences taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me, and that long‑standing trust from the people around me is something I’m really proud of. I am also a huge fan of training pets, though im not certified to do so as yet. This is currently my full time job at the moment as I transition in the workforce. That means more time for your pet, more time for play and fun or just naps. My space is clean, pet‑friendly, and thoughtfully arranged to keep every pet safe and comfortable. I’ve created a home environment where pets can feel relaxed, stimulated, and genuinely cared for. My neighborhood has beautiful, safe trails just a short walk away, so dogs get plenty of outdoor time, fresh air, and enriching adventures suited to their energy level. Inside, I’ve set up a designated nap room — a quiet, cozy space where pets can unwind, recharge, or enjoy some peaceful alone time whenever they need it.

About: I've cared for several family and friend's pets over the years, loving them as my own. I can take dogs on walks, play with them, let them out, and ensure they feel comfortable and safe. I have lots of time to devote to caring for pets! Between volunteering and searching for a full time job, my schedule is highly flexible and adaptable. Each pet has different needs, so I'm flexible to provide a great environment for your pet! Whether they need frequent short walks, to be let outside, play time, or crate time, I'm here to ensure they are well-cared-for.

Stephanie did a great job with my little Zena. She sent me a picture and updates on my baby to assure me how much fun Zena was having. It's hard for me to find a place or a sitter with a dog the size of Zena (5 lbs) and Stephanie made it so easy for me to book her because she had the perfect dogs and space. I'd book with Stephanie again!

Thank you so much for watching Tonka! He had an absolute blast — he came home, flopped over like he had just run a triathlon, and then gave me that “I had the best day ever” look. It’s obvious he adored hanging out with you and your family. The Best. Honestly, you were super awesome with him, and I’d happily recommend your dog‑watching superpowers to anyone who needs a reliable, fun, and all‑around amazing sitter. Tonka is already lobbying for his next “vacation” at your place.

About: Hi, I’m Claire, and I’d be thrilled to care for your non-shedding, fluffy companion! NOTE: My home is currently open to non-shedding dogs only due to my husband's allergy. I’ve loved animals my whole life—growing up with a cat, bunny, and dog. I waited until I had a home with a fenced yard to get my own dog, a 3-year old Goldendoodle, who I’ve trained through classes and now partner with as a certified therapy dog team. I’m great with puppies to seniors and comfortable administering medication. Your dog will be safe, loved, and well cared for in my home. When staying with me, your pup is free to safely explore, roam, and play in a fully fenced yard with a doggy door for easy outdoor access. I live in a pet-friendly neighborhood with nearby parks and walking trails, offering plenty of opportunities for adventure. Your dog will enjoy both indoor and outdoor social time, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes throughout their stay. To ensure we're a good fit, please reach out to schedule a meet and greet. Requirements for a great stay: It’s important that your pup is friendly with people and dogs of all sizes, and comfortable in a shared social setting. Dogs should be able to read and respond positively to human and canine social cues. At this time, I’m unable to accommodate dogs who: - Experience severe separation anxiety - Bark, mark, mount, howl, or whine excessively - Are destructive or aggressive - Are barrier reactive or escape artists (e.g., jump fences, dig under, open doors) - Have a high prey drive or extreme energy - Persistently dominate other dogs My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and happy environment for every dog in my care. Transparency about your pup’s behavior helps ensure the best experience for everyone! I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule tailored to your dog’s needs. My desk is in the main family room—so if your pup loves the couch, they might just make a cameo in my video calls! I can arrange my daily routine around your dog's playtime, potty break, walk, and snuggling needs. Your pup’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard with a doggy door, so dogs can come and go freely—if you’re comfortable with that. I also offer fully supervised outdoor time. Inside, pups are welcome on the couch and can sleep wherever they’re most comfortable: a dog bed, crate, or even a human bed. Our own dog sleeps on her bed at night, but we’re happy to accommodate your dog’s preferences. Currently only accepting non-shedding dog's due to husband's allergy.

Meagan was great with our dog! We have a usual sitter who couldn’t watch him and Meagan agreed the night before to watch him. So glad we found her! I got lots of pictures and updates throughout the day to know he was having a great time, and he came home very tired from a day full of playing with Daisy, Meagans dog. Would recommend and will definitely bring him back again!

I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect sitter for my energetic and lovable 5.5 year old sheepadoodle (Mabel) Jackie has a doodle (Vinny) and the two doodles got along great. Jackie greeted Mabel and I with kindness and reassured me that Mabel is in good hands. She sent photos along with an update about how things were going. I will definitely be contacting Jackie again for taking care of Mabel; she’s absolutely fabulous!
