“We highly recommend Susan. She has a kind and comforting demeanor who reassured our highly social cat when we were away. She sent a picture of a contented boy after each drop-in. We will be using Susan again.”
About: Hi there! My name is Gabi and I have about 10 years of pet care experience. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors! I have spent time working at boarding facilities where I administered all kinds of medications and kept up with individual dogs’ feeding schedules. I genuinely enjoy walking dogs and being active, but also don’t mind if your pup is more of a couch potato that just wants some company. Whatever their needs, I’ll be there for them AND you! I’m a county employee so I do work full time, but on the days that you schedule me, I’ll be completely available to you! I also understand that sometimes life happens and I’m more than willing to be flexible when needed! Each dog is an individual and I like to take my time getting to know each dog I work with. I have previous experience working at a behavioral center for dogs, so if your dog is fearful or maybe even a little reactive here and there, that’s totally okay! I will always take the time to connect with your dog on their timeline
“Michaela is the best! This was my first time having anyone other than family watch my 6 mo. puppy (named Millie). Michaela came over for a quick meet and greet a few days earlier and made me feel so comfortable knowing Millie was going to be in good hands. Thank you so much!! Can’t wait for the next time!!”
About: Growing up , I always loved caring for friends/families pets. In 2017 , my life changed when I got my first dog of my own, Sky the mini Aussie. Sky inspired me to start my own business , Mindful Pets, that I successfully operated from 2019-2024. I offered a range of services, from private walks , pack adventures, and in home pet sitting. In the 5 years of running my own pet care business, I loved weaving in my mindfulness practices, and invested in continued pet care education ; certified professional pet sitter with PSI , Pack Leader Blueprint , and Pet CPR / First Aid certified. You can rely on consistency in the care that I provide your pets , always ensuring their safety , well being, and having fun exploring new hiking trails or snuggling on the couch. Book your visit with me and guarantee a peace of mind your pets will be cared for by a professional. My schedule is completely open for pet care, depending on your pets needs / schedule , will determine the level of care I offer. I love taking pups out for fun adventures or caring for your feline pets in the comfort of their home. To minimize your pets stress , you can expect me to stay in your home. This helps keep your pets on their normal routine and environment and ensure they're happy and comfortable while the family is away.
About: Animals have been my passion since childhood, and from a young age, I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to working with and helping them. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience in kennel and boarding facilities for cats and dogs, volunteered at a horse boarding facility, and worked at the Humane Society. For the past seven years, I’ve been part of the veterinary field as a veterinary receptionist and assistant. My goal has always been to ensure that every animal in my care feels safe, happy, and loved, and that their owners leave with peace of mind, knowing I’ve made a positive difference in their pet’s life. Having a somewhat flexible schedule allows me to devote sufficient time to supporting you and your pet, enabling travel of up to 50 miles as needed, which also facilitates quality time with your companion. I enjoy collaborating with owners to establish a mutually convenient schedule. In my experience, maintaining a familiar environment, such as the pet's own home and routine, is crucial for minimizing stress and maximizing comfort. To ensure seamless care, I prefer to conduct in-depth consultations with owners to discuss their pets' daily habits, and other essential details. My ultimate objective is to provide top-notch care, ensuring your pet's comfort and happiness while you are away.

Gabriela V.
“Gabi has pet sit for my zoo of animals including dogs goats chickens horses and cows which is not an easy task! I always feel at ease whenever she is sitting for me! With Gabi’s extensive knowledge of canine behavior and animal care I never have to worry about the quality of care given to my animals (even though I have a couple difficult animals!) my dogs absolutely love her and have a great time whenever she is taking care of them! Gabi is a great communicator and keeps you updated on how your animal is doing or if any complications arise (because with animals you never know if they are going to do something dumb) Gabi handles every situation with grace and calm! I would trust her with my furry family members any day!”

Gina F.
“Gina is the best! She’s been a sitter for many years and is great with both dogs and cats. I am a Star Sitter on the Rover app myself so have a high bar for who I will trust with my own pets, and Gina is my go to sitter. She’s extremely responsible and communicative and will take care of your pets as if they are her own!”
Kenli T.
“Kenli is not only deeply devoted to her own pets, but any animal she comes across has her attention and care instantly. It is simply in her nature to gravitate and care for animals. I have known Kenli for many years, and I can honestly say her love for animals is unparalleled. Being a dedicated and loving pet owner herself, she understands the concern and anxiousness that comes along with being away from home. I can honestly say with Kenli that concern and anxiety will not only be eased, but relieved. I have and will continue to trust Kenli with my own pet. She is diligent, caring, honest, compassionate, and always does what is best for the animals in her care.”

“Elvis is great! Everything you'd want in a host - very responsive, flexible about timing for drop-off and pick-up, and a genuine animal lover. She sent adorable pictures of Marley during his stay, and when I picked him I could tell he'd had a good time and been in great hands :) I will definitely use Elvia again to watch Baxter and would recommend her to others in the DogVacay community!”
