“Elthea & Joshua were amazing. Luna really enjoyed staying with them and their dogs. Luna really loved playing with them and she was exhausted when we picked her up. They also sent me multiple photos and videos of Luna which were super cute. I would 100% rebook them in the future!!”

About: A lifetime dog lover, my dog and I go everywhere together. My pup is used to two walks a day, either around the neighborhood, on the river trail, at the dog park, or on the trails--we'd love to take your dog with us! I'm happy to watch your pet while you're away or make sure they get the exercise they need when you're busy! I'm currently between jobs and walk my dog twice a day--lucky her! We can be found walking around the neighborhood, at the dog park, or out on the trails! I have a dog at home who is very good with other dogs. Dogs in my home are allowed on the furniture, but I will respect your boundaries. I have a fenced-in yard.
“Admittedly, I was a bit nervous to leave my quirky tripod at anyone’s house. Mylene is my queen but she is anxious, nervous and can be slow to warm up. Michelle and her family were the perfect fit for Mylene. It was so nice to not have to worry about Mylene while on vacation. I could tell that Mylene received a ton of attention on Mylene’s terms, exercise and clear/consistent direction from Michelle. This is why her stay went smoothly and she didn’t destroy anything due to not being stressed and she was able play with 2 other dogs. Michelle was very communicate and timely with responses which made securing this rover stay, drop off and pick up extremely easy. I am so grateful, I chose Michelle to watch my girl for this long stay.”
“Ian was knowledgeable and capable of understanding our dog’s quirky personality. He was patient and understanding. Our dog was cared for and safe while we were away. Thank u Ian!”
“Anastasia was exceptional! She kept my dog for 10 days/nights and I knew my dog was in a safe and loving home. We had a meet and greet beforehand so I was comfortable with both Anastasia and the environment. She provided daily updates and photos which allowed me to enjoy my time away. More importantly, my dog LOVES her. My dog was part of the family while there, even sleeping in the bed! I DEFINITELY will use Anastasia in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Melinda was a fantastic dog sitter for Walter! He immediately felt right at home, even sitting on top of her laundry. She was great with providing us updates and Walter really enjoyed her yard and the other pups she was watching. Would absolutely have her watch Walter again!”
“Lynn is a very great sitter! She had our Eenie in a nice, safe area away from the other cats until they got acclimated to each other. Throughout our trip, we were given pictures and updates to let us know that Eenie was doing okay.”

“Madeline has been dog sitting for me for years, and I can't recommend her enough! She cared for my two older mutts before they passed, and is now dog-sitting and walking my new puppy. Madeline is incredibly responsible and attentive. She always arrives on time, and it’s clear she genuinely loves animals, especially her dog named Basil. My puppy is a bit shy around new people, but he instantly warmed up to her, thanks to her friendly demeanor. Madeline took the time to follow my instructions regarding feeding, walks, and playtime to ensure my pup felt comfortable and happy while I was away. Throughout my time away, she provided regular updates and photos, which eased my mind. She also took Tater on hikes and walks daily! When I returned home, my dog was happy and relaxed, which speaks volumes about Madeline's care. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, look no further than Madeline. She has a natural talent for connecting with dogs, and I’ll be using her services for all my future trips!”
