“Christopher F. took incredible care of my dog, Tuna, who is normally quite shy. Despite her reserved nature, Christopher’s warmth and patience quickly won her over. He went above and beyond to make Tuna feel comfortable and secure, paying close attention to her specific needs and preferences. Thanks to Christopher’s attentive and loving approach, Tuna not only felt safe but also began to show her playful side. It was clear that she trusted him completely, and I felt at ease knowing she was in such capable hands.”

9. Claudia P.
“Claudia takes the best care of our dog Roxy when we go out of town. She takes Roxy out for a walk, feeds her, gives her treats, and cuddles with her (the most important part!). I have known Claudia for several years, and you could not ask for a more loving or responsible person to take care of your pet. She will go above and beyond every time.”

16. Kaitlin H.
About: Yes, I am the person greeting your dog first. I can't help it! I've lived with and cared for all kinds of dogs, from pugs to pitties. I looked after an 17 year old hound dog, and have most recently been enjoying the adventure of raising a rottie boy from a pup. I've done all manner of clean ups, managed medicine schedules, and walked at every pace you can imagine in any weather you can imagine. I'm keen on helping pups meet their needs, be it exercise, play, training, or even a lil' hip massage. I'm in! Caring for my own pup helped me to heal from workplace burnout, so I'm working to make pet care a larger part of my life. That said, I am working part-time and have a lot of flexibility, particularly when I have ample notice or a consistent schedule. At the same time, the nature of my work now means I'm sometimes available on short notice, too. When caring for your pet in their home, I'm always happy to follow any instruction you have, and I'm big on leaving no trace that I've been there. I'm comfortable being captured on your pet cam, and will always triple-check that I've adequately secured both your pet and your home when leaving. Should your dog come to stay with me and my pup (2.5 yrs), they'll be in a two story home with a fenced in yard. I have a medium and large crate on site, as well as a small soft crate, and a variety of gates and beds/cots. In instances where solo time is preferred, my pup can often go for a slumber party at his uncle's place if needed.


17. Dennis P.

“Dennis did a great job with my dog Dexter who was high energy and at times could be a little aggressive toward bigger dogs. He was always timely and Dexter was always happy to see him. I would recommend him to any dog owner because his love for dogs is without question.”

19. Brianna M.
“Brianna did great with my pup, Koda! He's a big guy (~90 pounds) with some anxiety. Brianna was patient and positive with him, and Koda came back from walks happy and tired.”


20. Rachel B.
“Rachel has helped take care of my pups (all 7 of them!) for close to a decade now, and has done a phenomenal job every time. She is the kindest, most caring, sweetest, hardest working, most animal loving pet sitter anyone could hope to find, and will always put your pet’s health and wellbeing first and foremost in every decision she makes. Our dogs LOVE going to see their “2nd mother”, as they’re always treated as members of the family every time she takes care of them.”
