“Made it very easy for me, he already has food and leash. Easy communication and pickup/dropoff. My boy was very happy, they went on walks every day and photos were sent to me. I could tell my dog was happy and comfortable during the stay. Large dogs sometimes it had been difficult to find someone who could handle their exercise needs. Thanks again!”


“My 3 year old Labradoodle had a great time in Michelle’s care. She typically isn’t very social, however, she gained a few new friends during her stay. They played in a spacious backyard and took walks together. The communication from Michelle was timely and I received videos daily. Her husband was courteous and helped me get The overnight bag and items in the house. I returned from a short vacation to a happy, healthy pup! I highly recommend her services.”


“Brodie loves Pissamas! She took on a last minute booking and saved me! She is the best and Brodie is always so happy when she sends me videos and pictures. She is our favorite.”


“Sabrina, was a great dog sitter for my dog. She knew the right things to do making my dog happy during her walks and taking care of her with extra care during her stay in her home.”


“I kept my pet Benji with Nikhila for almost 2.5 weeks and she is the best pet sitter I could have ever found for our fur baby. She took the utmost best care of our puppy and sent many updates with new activities. Benji got so much love and care at her home. I thank Nikhila for being a loving pet sitter with all my heart.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages – from playful puppies to sweet senior pups – and I always treat them with patience, love, and respect. Whether your dog needs gentle walks, extra cuddles, or help sticking to their routine, I’m here to help. I’ve also completed a dog behavior course, which helps me understand what each pup needs to feel calm, confident, and safe. Plus, I can teach basic tricks and commands in a fun and positive way! What makes me different? 💖 I truly bond with every dog I walk. 🐶 I’m calm and gentle with shy or nervous pups. 🎓 I help reinforce good habits and routines, especially for puppies. 🧠 I can teach simple tricks like sit, paw, spin, or stay. 👶 I’m experienced with high-energy “doggy kids” who need structure and fun. 📷 I always send updates with photos and notes, so you know your pup is happy and safe. Every dog is unique, and I take the time to understand what makes yours special. Whether it’s belly rubs, quiet time, or a faster pace, I tailor each walk to their needs. I work from home and online, which allows me to dedicate most of my time to caring for your pets. I’m available throughout the day to provide walks, playtime, or companionship as needed. I maintain a flexible schedule to ensure each dog receives focused, quality care without feeling rushed. Because I work remotely, I can be fully present with your dog for most of the day if that’s what they need, giving them attention, comfort, and consistency. Whether I care for your dog at my house, visit them at yours, or take them for a walk, safety and trust are my top priorities. At my house, your dog can move freely and comfortably throughout the entire space, enjoying a secure and cozy environment. I also have a small dog park nearby where I can take them for extra playtime while they stay with me. I carefully supervise playtime and rest, making sure your pet has plenty of water, toys, and cozy spots to feel comfortable. I also have a friendly dog at home, so your pup will have a companion and social interaction in a safe setting. During walks, I pay close attention to your dog’s behavior and needs, keeping them safe and happy on every outing. I adapt the pace and duration of the walk to what’s best for your dog. When caring for your dog at your home, I follow your instructions closely to keep their routine consistent. I respect your space and make sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. I understand how to read and respond calmly to different situations, so you can trust your dog is well cared for in any circumstance.

“Brian and his family took great care of my pup. They were very responsive, followed his schedule, and made sure to ask questions to ensure his comfort. I can tell they truly cared for my pup and had the best intentions making sure my boy felt right at home. Highly recommend booking and I will definitely be back!”


“Thank you David and Jennifer for taking great care of Daisy while we were away. Thanks for all the pictures and for taking her out for walks and playtime at the park. ?”


“Thao was amazing with our puppy Obi. You can tell she really cared about him, from the daily updates and questions about his progress. Obi is not boarded often, so he always has a bit of an acclimation period. Thao and her mom were amazing at making Obi feel at home. He came home very happy. Thank you, Thao!!!”


“David did an amazing job sitting Loki! He provided excellent service, sent photo updates, and reached out with any questions or concerns. I highly recommend him and will definitely be booking with him again in the future.”


“Becky was an outstanding sitter with constant updates and the ability to read my pup’s wants and needs. Certainly would book with Becky again and would highly recommend!!”


“We couldn’t be happier with the care our two dogs received! From the moment we met Kristena, it was clear she truly loves animals and takes her job seriously. Throughout the time we were away, Kristena kept us updated with messages, photos, and even a few fun videos. It was obvious our dogs were not only well cared for, but also happy, exercised, and genuinely enjoying themselves. Reliable, kind, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful, Kristena went above and beyond. We feel so lucky to have found someone we can fully trust with our pups.”


“This was my dog’s first boarding experience and Mila made it possible for him to ease into the stay, make friends with fellow dog guests and have fun. She is knowledgeable, patient, and extremely dedicated to the animals in her care”


“Kira is amazing! Our Frenchie is wary of most new people, but she took to Kira right away and was comfortable in her home quickly. Kira was super easy to connect/coordinate with and was flexible to accommodate our boarding dates/times (which moved around a bit). Kira sent messages and photos every day, which we loved. We could tell from Bella’s big smiles, action photos, and couch lounging that she was happy and getting lots of love, snuggles, and play time. An overall wonderful experience. We would book again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Kira!”


“Thank you for taking care of Daisy 🌼 she was great and gave a lot of updates on how she was doing. I would definitely recommend and have her look after my dog again!”


“We recently boarded our dog with Himza for five days and couldn't be happier with the care he received. Himza was fantastic! She took him for regular walks, and, importantly for us, was extremely diligent about her food allergies. We provided her specific food, and Himza made absolutely sure she was only fed that. We really appreciated her attention to this detail. Throughout her stay, Himza sent us regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that our dog was in a loving and gentle environment. She seemed very comfortable and well-cared for. Overall, we were extremely impressed with Himza's care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog caretaker. We are so happy to have found Himza and will definitely be using her services again in the future.”


“Amazing as always. We’ve used Mimi before and our dog Lincoln is treated (and acts) like family. We brought him over for the weekend and he proceeded to walk right in without a second glance at us and position himself on his “spot” on the couch. She has a great fenced in yard with plenty of shade and sun that he also enjoyed. Lincoln never seems hurried to leave when we come to pick him up and you can tell that Mimi genuinely cares about the dogs she’s watching for you :) 5/5 and would highly recommend.”



“We are so happy to have found Robin! Sammy really enjoyed such loving care from Robin and her family. We loved the pictures and comments about how he was doing during his first visit. Sammy is looking forward to his next visit with his new “second mama”!”
