“Marcela was great, we left our dog with her for 3 nights. She always informed us at all times and sent us videos and pictures. She is always going to be my first choice whenever I need a dog sitter! She is knowledgeable about animals and truly cares about your pet. I know she is reliable and honest.”
“Maria is awesome! A very sweet and attentive person. She gave me daily updates in the form of pictures and videos of my sweet boy. She made sure he felt loved and Included in their family during his stay. I recommend booking your stay with her! I will book again”

She took very good care of the dogs they came back happy and calm! They definitely had fun !The doggies had a blast with Cindy's dogs Pepper and Luna . They are very friendly! Cindy's family is very warm and they also spent time with the dogs too! I highly recommend Cindy to watch your pets ! Thank you!”
“Obie was so happy with his time at Doris’ house. He was sad to leave. We knew he was in the best care possible. Thank you, Doris, you made our hearts very happy.”
“Tara S and her family are amazing ?. They took such good care of my Louie - including washing all of his bedding the day I came to get him. She has two good sized good natured dogs that kept him busy the entire time we were gone. I highly recommend her if you have a good natured medium sized dog they likes companionship & playtime. My Louie is about 90 lbs just so you have an idea of what I mean by good sized dog. We will absolutely use them again ?”
“Thank you for taking such good care of my Lily while I was on vacation for a week. The constant updates and photos put me at ease to know my little girl was happy and comfortable being away from me for the first time. I loved that she was the only dog in the home with someone always home to let her out or monitor her. She had a lot of fun! Will definitely be booking again for any future trips.”
“WOW! Melissa and her husband took wonderful care of our family dog. This was the first time I had a pet sitter for my dog and I felt at ease and highly confident with Melissa’s care. She was very attentive, friendly, and sent pictures and videos too! Melissa is highly experienced and we will be using her again.”
“Christina was amazing with dudley. She sent photos every day as well as text updates to let me know what they doing at the park and on walks and how my snugglepuff was adjusting and settling in. She gave me early notice that the food was running low so I was able to send her more well before it ran out and became an emergency. He also enjoyed playing with onyx, the neighbor dog, and I was thrilled he had the canine company. She was very loving and kind towards duds, and I am sending him back next week for 3 more days to board while I wrap up a work event.”
About: Hello I’m a local dog groomer I have had dogs since I was 4 years old , I’ve been in the field for the past 13 years however now I’m able to work from home and miss the doggie interaction so I decided to bring them here ! I would love to build a relationship with you and your pup and put your mind at ease while you’re away. I work from home now and can provide 24/7 care. We have the ability to go on nature walks together, poolside fun or just couch snuggles I have a fully fenced in back yard that they’re free to explore. My 2 dogs love it back there sunbathing or pool time the choice is theirs
“Christine did a fantastic job looking after my older beagle! He came back home looking so relaxed and content. Plus, I loved that she kept me updated with a few messages each day. Really appreciated that extra touch!”
“We have been using Jeff for over 2 years now. First with my senior Maltipoo who needed extra care due to health issues. Jeff was able to give her the attention she needed. Now we bring our Cairn Terrier puppy. The puppy has so much fun! I love the pictures and updates Jeff sends. I would highly recommend Jeff.”
“Would def have my fur baby stay again. Great communication. I know my baby was well taken care of. Lauren and Kenny were so kind. I got photo and video updates which I loved!”
“This was my first experience with Ruby Sky and I am very pleased with the outcome. She addressed all my concerns and provided timely communications to ensure a smooth process. She also provided several pictures throughout my dog’s stay which were/are greatly appreciated. Looking forward to my dog’s next stay.”
“I can not recommend Catherine enough!! My 3 year old Bichon is fresh from a week-long stay with Catherine and we couldn’t be happier. Catherine and her entire family are welcoming, and Catherine lavishes my dog with affection. We love knowing that he is well-cared for, surrounded by loving people and a limited number of other small dogs, and we feel safe and comfortable leaving him for extended stays. Catherine responds quickly to all correspondence and sends me daily updates. I tried other dog care sitters in the past when Catherine was unavailable, and nobody else provides the same level of care.”
“Our dog Pepper had a wonderful stay with Matthew and Kristin over the Thanksgiving holiday. They were super communicative and sent photos of our pup throughout the weekend. I think Pepper wants us to go out of town again so she can go back and see her new friends! Thanks for everything, Matthew and Kristin!!”
“Alicia and her family took care of Iggy, our mini-golden doodle for 14 days while we traveled through Europe. Alicia was attentive to all of Iggy’s needs and sent us many photos and updates on Iggy’s time with her. Alicia has a very loving and friendly dog named Wilson. He was Iggy’s best buddy while he was with the family. Wilson was very accommodating of Iggy and they were often found cuddling together. I recommend Alicia as a 5 star sitter! She even brought Iggy back to us after we returned so we wouldn’t have to go to her. Thank you, Alicia!❤️”
“Tricia boarded Ellie for us while we visited Long Island over Christmas to visit family and wanted to spend a night in the city. She was kind enough to come to us for a meet & greet to be sure Ellie was comfortable with her. I was impressed by how she made sure to read through all of Ellie’s care instructions before drop off and be prepared with any questions. She’s our go to sitter now whenever we are in the area!”
“Heather was amazing. She had never even met my VERY high energy Australian shepherd doodle puppy who chews ALL things and took her for her first overnight away from us. It’s clear how much she and her family love dogs. I felt super comfortable leaving Parker with Heather. I’ll definitely use her again!”
“Patrick, Karyn, and Levi were absolutely wonderful hosts for our small dog. They took her on daily walks, sent us updates with photos, and treated her like she was their own baby. Karyn gives attention to each detail and I did not worry a single moment. I think our pup may have had a better vacation than we did and she can’t wait to go back. Thanks again!”
