“Sheilyan was wonderful with my German shepherd. She almost didnt want to come home :) I'll definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve worked in animal welfare for 20 years and have experience with every size, breed and need! I’m comfortable administering medication and most importantly, I love animals so much that I’ve dedicated my life to them :). I work full time from home. I have flexible hours and usually go on several walks around my neighborhood a day. The longest I’d be away from home ranges from 2-4 hours and that can be adjusted based on your pets’ needs. I have a fenced yard and lots of love to give! There’s plenty of space in my house for crate(s) and I also welcome dog snuggles if they are allowed to sleep in the bed. I don’t have any other pets in the home but have lots of friends with dogs if yours likes the company.

“My dog Tate stayed with Jeff for the second time recently and had a blast. Jeff is very kind and clearly an animal lover. Tate hadn’t been there since July, but it was like he had never left. Jeff sends updates and pictures often and is very quick to respond to texts. Tate and I are so happy to have such a terrific sitter.”

“Donna is absolutely great, very nice, accommodating and very punctual. She sent many pictures with our dog, who seemed very happy and well taken care of. We are very pleased to have met her and shall definitely contact her again for future bookings. Thank you, Donna!”

“Andrea is a beautiful, intelligent and compassionate professional. She cares about the animals she looks after while 'pet parents' are away. She reduces anxieties naturally by listening carefully and observing astutely. Hygge had never been away or 'boarded' for pet sitting prior to my experience with Andrea. At all times she was communicative, caring and purposeful in her interactions with Hygge, who probably worried about being in a new home away from home for a few days on many levels. My transportation plans were delayed due to a severe storm that prevented my scheduled pick up, and Andrea was patient, reasonable and loving during my own stress about being stuck in NYC beyond my control for the pick up of my dog after traveling for a few days. She worked with me every step of the way, and the boarding experience was a total success even with transportation issues. Hygge returned home happy, healthy, well-nourished and satisfied with renewed confidence in his ability to work with another lovely family in our sweet community in a spirit of trust and sucess. All in all, I would recommend Andrea to work with anyone who has pets they love and want to broaden the scope of their pet's world by allowing Andrea to work with them and care for them. Andrea also understands the complexities of rescue animals, and will work with you so all are informed and kept in safe environments that nourish everyone's positive potential. She is also very pleasant and loving. She is a talented professional and a local treasure to all who come in contact with her.”

“I recently had Cherissa watch over my mini Goldendoodle, Sofia, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very first interaction, she was professional, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. Cherissa and her family took the time to get to know Sofia’s routine, preferences, and any special needs, which made me feel totally at ease. While I was away, she provided regular updates—including photos and messages—which really reassured me that my pet was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Cherissa and her family to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care. I’ll definitely be booking with them again in the future!”

“Jonathan was a pleasure to have watch our pup, Mochi. We had a last minute need for doggy care over the Fourth of July and Jonathan was willing to welcome Mochi into his family for the whole weekend, and help him feel at home. Mochi loved playing in the big yard and hanging out with Jonathan’s kids. We will definitely rebook with Jonathan the next time we are in town.”

“Rutledge had a great stay and got along well with their dogs. We enjoyed photo and video updates. We thank Nicole and Caaba for making accommodations for Rutledge for one additional night as our plans had to be extended. Rutledge was content!”

Theresa G.

“Janice is the absolute best! 💕🐾 She loves my puppy and it makes such a difference to know she’s not just safe and cared for but happy. It’s such a relief. She goes above and beyond recommending a slow eating bowl and all natural tick repellent. Her home is full of love and she’s one of the kindest and most loving people I know. I couldn’t recommend her more!!”

Rachel R.

“Jennifer was an excellent sitter! She sent lots of updates and photos, and it was clear that Juliette was well cared for and having a great time. She even got her a little lamb toy, which was so sweet and unexpected. Would recommend her completely!”

Kate M.

“Eleanor cared for our Elf, a rescued Yorkie, for two weeks. She sent us pics, consulted us when picky Elf dithered about her meals, took her on many walks and essentially treated Elf as her own fur baby! Eleanor did a super job. I would highly recommend her.”

Susan B.

“Sophia was lovely! We felt very comfortable leaving Bernie with her, and confident that she was in good hands. Sophia gave frequent updates, was easy to communicate with, and helpful throughout the planning and drop-off/pickup. Bernie had a fabulous vaycay, thank you!!!”

Fay C.

“Lisa was wonderful and my dogs had a Really good time!! I will definitely book with her again :-)”

Lynn L.

“We Love Caroline! She sent the sweetest update pics and was lovely to work with. Easy communication, good vibes all around. I’ll def be contacting her again for hangs with my pup.”

Pepper M.

“Sparky was in good hands with Joe and his furry family. Definitely recommend him!”

Gigi R.

“Nayeli is an amazing choice for watching your pooch. When you travel, the last thing you want is to worry about your dog while away. So glad we found Nayeli! Our yellow lab will be spending a lot of time with her, as we travel quite a bit.”

Casey M.

“Nardia was friendly, communicated well, and very flexible with my last minute puppy boarding needs! I needed a place for my puppy to stay within two hours for the night, and Nardia opened her home for my puppy and was patient and comforting with her. Highly recommend.”

Harris E.

“Cici was wonderful with Ruby! I had another rover fall through and Cici worker with me to find a solution. We were able to have a very slow and steady meet and greet. It gave Ruby a ton of confidence for the stay. All the updates about how my pup was fitting in with her family were great. She handled the pup well. Would highly recommend”

Maxen H.

“Our little guy, Wrigley, had an absolutely wonderful stay with Judy and Steven! I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming environment for their pup. As a beagle, Wrigley usually hates being left behind—but I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. He got the royal treatment with pup cups, plenty of love and attention, and he even made a new friend in their sweet dog, Ginger. Thank you, Judy and Steven, for making Wrigley feel so at home and for giving me such peace of mind!”

Susan & Dave J.

“I highly recommend Marielle. She’s is conscientious and light hearted. Her home and fenced yard are lovely. I genuinely got the impression that she enjoyed my dog Ella. It was a breeze to communicate with her to set up drop off and pick up times.”
