“Angelita provided the undivided, fulltime attention that Ian (and most labs) expect and sometimes demand! She was prompt with responses to my questions, followed the instructions to comply with Ian's schedule and gave Ian all the affection that he's accustomed to. I'm pretty sure that he would have enjoyed staying with Angelita a little longer. We're looking forward to his next stay with her!”
“Alexis did a wonderful job! She took great care of our Hamlet while we were visiting. Even though Hamlet was there for a short period of time she kept us updated through out the day. We would highly recommend.”
“My dog is very happy with Grace, so that makes me happy. This was his second visit with Grace, and everything went great. Grace is very conscientious and is in tune with my dog's needs. He'll be back again next week with his sister.”
“Happily rescheduled our vacation to make sure our dog could stay here again. He always comes back to me extremely happy, Charissa is like a second home to Cosmo, as long as she’s willing to have him I’ll always rebook with her”
“Betsy did a wonderful job taking care of our girl! She was super accommodating to all of her specific needs and made sure she felt safe and comfortable. It was such a relief to know Remy was in good hands and with someone who treated her as one of her own. I definitely recommend booking with Betsy. Remy is already looking forward to her next stay!”
“Foxy was great with my two dogs. She provided pictures and updates. Lincoln has separation anxiety, and she knew how to calm him, to the point that he owned the house. Blitz is a high-energy boy, and I know he kept her busy. This was a last-minute booking instead of the kennel at the vet - So glad the boys had a great vacation too!”
“Jen was a great sitter for our dog Sadi while we were out of the country. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and assurances Sadi was doing well. Would recommend.”
About: I’ve had the joy of providing around-the-clock love and attention to furry friends in their own space. I’ve cared for dogs and cats from four different families, each with their own unique personalities and routines. Growing up with animals, I’ve learned how to read their needs and earn their trust. I’m here to be their new best friend - and yes, you’ll get plenty of adorable photo updates along the way. I work from home 3 days of the week, but have flexibility to work fully remote if needed for your pet! This means that they can have someone with them every moment of the day, if that is a must. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I will follow all routines closely. This includes feeding schedules, walk times, favorite toys, or if they like to watch a specific show while napping on the couch. If I am in your home, I will keep things tidy, respect your personal privacy, and send regular photo updates so you know your pet is happy and cared for. In my homes I create a cozy, pet-friendly space. I tailor to their personality - whether they’re energetic, shy, or somewhat in between!
“Jacob and Megan took excellent care of our dog, Penny! Everyday they sent photos of her and gave us updates as to how she was doing. Jacob and Megan were easy to work with, both in terms of communication and flexibility. Penny came back happy! We hope to have the chance to book again with Jacob and Megan!”
“Patricia boarded our cat and small dog for 9 days while we’re on vacation. This was our first experience with her and we were very impressed. Her house is spotless and organized, with a big and beautiful backyard. She was a very responsible and caring sitter, asked all the right questions, sent updates and photos, and reassured us so we could relax. Our pets were very well looked after and happy when we picked them up. We would highly recommend her and use her services again!”
“Mai is a wonderful dog sitter! My dog was so happy to spend six days under Mai's care. He got to play with other dogs, and the attention Mai gave our pup was phenomenal!!!”
“D was phenomenal!! She was super flexible and communicated with us the entire stay. As soon as I met her, I could feel her love for all animals and breathed a sigh of relief. It was then I knew my babies would be well taken care of. Our kids had such a great time and we will be definitely be using her again!!”
“Lisa continues to be a great help to our family. Lucy knows her well now and always comes home in a great mood and a bit tuckered out. I miss Lucy so much while we are away but with the updates throughout her stay, I can see she's having just as much fun, if not more, on her vacation too.”
“While on vacation, Madeline took great care of our dog. She shared pictures and videos daily and ensured we were well informed on his stay. Having a large fenced yard allowed Murray to get plenty of exercise, roam and explore and have fun. Boarding with Madeline was the best scenario for our active dog……he didn’t want to come home!!!”

She is a responsible and caring person that will make your pets wish they could stay with her again and again.”
