“Monica is always wonderful with our boy, Loki. He’s a hand full and she goes above and beyond to make him happy. We never worry about him while we are gone. We highly recommend Monika as a sitter for your fur babies!!!”
“This family does an amazing job with our Zorii. She has separation anxiety pretty bad so we are always nervous to leave her with new people. They took her in as one of their own and she loves going there. I highly recommend.”
“We were so happy with the pictures and daily updates we were sent while we were on a 9 day cruise. Our Puppo was so relaxed and we’ll taken care of! We definitely will ask for future pet setting anytime we need to leave our fur baby.”
“Amanda took my little Jackson into her home even though I told her he had had very little socialization. (I took him in when his first semi-invalid "mama" passed away leaving no one else to care for him.) He was extremely leery of strangers and other dogs. We did a meet & greet and she decided he would do "fine". She was so right! He did great! He played with her dog as well as another one she took care of for a day or so. And he loved her grandmother. They said they would take him again any time. Pictures and viewers received assuring me he was happy and getting along with everyone. I would very highly recommend Amanda for any other dogs. Thank you, Amanda!!”
“He was so good at keeping in touch and sent pics thru the week. And Gracie looked content and happy when I came to pick her up! ❤️🥰 very affordable also!!”
“Super attentive and easy to work with! She treats your pet like they’re her own. Will continue to ask Shyann to watch my pup anytime she needs a sitter!”
“Katia was so awesome and took care of my husky Ethel for 5 days while I was out of town. She came home so happy and exhausted. 10/10 She accommodate us last minute which was super sweet of her.”
“I can’t recommend Ethan enough! From the moment we first met, it was clear he truly cared about animals and took the role seriously. He took the time to get to know my cat, Linda, and asked thoughtful questions about her routine, preferences, and quirks. While I was away, Ethan sent regular updates and adorable photos that really gave me peace of mind. Linda looked happy and relaxed in everyone. When I picked her up, she was calm, well-fed, and clearly lovingly cared for. The litter area was spotless. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive to take care of your pets, Ethan is an absolute gem. I’ll definitely be booking with him again. Thank you. Ethan”
“Hope is so sweet! She kept me updated on my puppy the entire time! My dog Cocoa is very high energy, and her dogs at home were able to play and socialize with my dog so well! My dog is a XL Bully, and since Hope has her own dog that are Bull mix breeds; it made feel a lot more confident and comfortable with having my baby there! I will definitely use her again!”
“Kylie was great. She was responsive to messages and friendly. My dog lives her. I am not certain she was ready to come home. Kylie sent pictures and even a video while my dog was in her care. Thanks, Kylie!”

“Hilary was great. She sent pictures everyday, and I could tell my dog was having a great time in them. She made sure he got all the things he likes: walks, play, and cuddles. Very easy to work with too with good communication between me and Hilary. My dog was in good spirits when I picked him up like he was at home there.”

He the most well behaved boy I know! I work for DoorDash so I make my own schedules I decide when I work and when I don’t so I have a lot of free time to take care of and play with all your beautiful animals! I have a 3 bedroom house with a large dining room and living room as well as a good sized backyard. It has an 8 food privacy fence!

About: I have fostered dogs my whole life, and rehabilitated many untrained fosters. I basic obedience train all my personal dogs and foster dogs. I have also volunteered at the local animal shelter for the past 3 years. My husband and I work opposite schedules so someone is home majority of the day. I start my day at 4am taking care of my own dogs and work 8-4. My husband’s home all day and leaves for work at 2:30 so your beloved family member will have around the clock care! I have a 6ft privacy fence. I also am very trained in crate and rotating dogs if need be. I am equipped in medication administration as I have two personal dogs on daily meds. I have been trained on how to properly introduce dogs and have fostered many dogs over the past few years. I also have the room and availability to keep your pup separate from other dogs in the home if need be.
“Taylor was flexible, responsive and great at meeting the needs of my dog! I would recommend Taylor to any of my furry pet parents out there. I messed up on my booking dates and she was kind and helpful by keeping my pup longer than she expected. I was so appreciative of the care my dog received with Taylor!”

Samantha & James R.
“I have known Samantha and her husband, James, for quite some time now. We volunteer together at our local animal shelter. I've seen her love on the broken dogs, take them on as fosters, and literally love them back to health. She gives each of the dogs in her care "training time" which makes for great enrichment. She is also skilled in what is called "crate and rotate" for situations when your pet may not necessarily get along with everyone else, they would get their own potty time outside in the yard. I would trust her with my pets, time and time again.”
