“Very overdue review, but Nancy was great! Fast response times and she gave cooper all the attention that he craves. She sent pictures and communicated throughout the stay and even sent cooper home with a Christmas gift. Thanks for such a fun stay!”
“Anusha took care of our 1 year old puppy when we were in vacation. She kept us informed everyday with lot of pictures. Zoey came home very calm and relaxed as she got enough play time with the whole family and lot of love. She also got a goody bag 😃. Thanks a lot Anusha.”
“This was the third time we used Jenna! Our Great Dane pup LOVES going to their home! He is always excited when we arrive! Jenna is always a great communicator! We will continue to use them in the future!! Her daughter seems extremely helpful! Looks like our dane loves her a lot!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful and dedicated dog sitter than Qi. From the very beginning, she demonstrated genuine care, attentiveness, and professionalism in looking after our beloved dog, Bear. It was immediately clear that she treats every pet as if they were her own. Qi went above and beyond to ensure Bear was not only well cared for, but also happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Her attention to detail, reliability, and warm nature truly set her apart. When we returned, Bear was relaxed, content, and clearly had formed a bond with her—a true testament to the exceptional level of care she provides. We are incredibly grateful for Qi and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly exceptional in pet care. Thank you so much, Qi! We are hoping to book with you again soon, I know Bear can’t wait to see you again!”
“Susie was very informative, responsive and kind. She sent lots of pictures and updates which helped feeling comfortable with a new sitter for my grandpup. Milo was very well taken care of and we already have her booked for upcoming dates. I strongly recommend her to sit, walk or care for your pet.”
“Brian has taken care of Brownie for us twice, and he has been amazing both times. Our flight was unexpectedly canceled, and Brian was incredibly understanding and flexible with our changing plans. He truly cares about the pets he watches and gave us complete peace of mind. A real lifesaver. We highly recommend him and will definitely use him again. Thank you Brian, and your family.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of Trixie during our recent travels. You two are the best! It's hard for us to leave Trixie, but we are always comfortable leaving her with you. And I think she settles in with you quite well! Best, Judith & Mike”
About: Experienced dog owner and sitter. Studied dog psychology to become a good dog parent. Had two female spaniels who passed earlier this year. We used to compete in dog frisbee and hunt. Also have experience working in a grooming salon, as well as walking and boarding various size dogs - from labs and German shepherds to Jack Russel terriers and mini Aussies. Additionally at no cost I can provide basic behavioural training and teach new tricks - I love to communicate with dogs of any breed and move in one rhythm with them. And I really feel their needs and able to connect with dogs of all ages. I can board puppies and older dogs, take them for a walk someplace new and play ball or frisbee. But safety and well-being is my main focus and if your dog doesn't want too much activity, I can provide a more mellow experience, too. Available on weekdays and weekends but please make appointments at least 2 days in advance. I would love to meet your furry friend! I'm working remotely from home part-time, so have lots of time to spend with doggies. I'm available both weekends and weekdays and rarely leave home for more than a couple hours, so your dog won't be alone for too long. I have a fenced backyard and deck, and two mellow spaniels to keep your doggo company. I also have a crate where your pet can rest if needed.
“I was lucky to find Michelle and Michael. My dog is young golden retriever with high energy. Michelle and Michael gave my dog plenty of cuddles and attention. They gave my dog long walk and played fetch with him. Michelle sent me updates frequently that helped relieve my separation anxiety. I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”
“Sophia has watched my dog several times and I wouldn’t trust my dog with anyone else. My dog is always so comfortable and well cared for in her home. She consistently follows all instructions regarding his diet and routine, and provides daily updates and videos, which gives me peace of mind. My dog loves Sophia so much that during pickup he repeatedly returned to her home. She is like his second family. I know he feels safe, secure, and genuinely cared for by her. I feel incredibly lucky to have found Sophia. She is also very thoughtful, surprising us with small gifts, which speaks to the kind of person she is. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and compassionate sitter.”
“Teresa was so kind and energetic. She sent us pictures of Otoro the whole time we were gone - he went to walks and hikes and played and came back tired (in the best way!) I will definitely be booking with Teresa again the next time we are looking for someone to hang out with Otoro!”
“Willow who is usually reactive and scared fell into a calm routine with Yajaira and her dog Luna which is so reassuring. We appreciate the dog walk photos too. Thanks Yajaira!”
“Jennifer was very prompt in her service. She took good care of our dog and sent us regular updates with pics. She was also flexible and made sure our dog got her meds on time. Thanks Jennifer for the care and affection you provided for our pet.”
“Highly recommended! Madhumita was very responsive, took great care of Maui (my 5 year old golden retriever) and provided regular updates along with photos and videos. I’ll be sure to avail her services in the future.”
“Steve is very communicative keeping me informed and sending photos of my pups during boarding. Steve is also very tuned-in to the pups in his care. Thank you Steve!”
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“My senior Lab had a wonderful stay! I was traveling with my daughter, and we both greatly appreciated the continuous updates and pictures. Their whole family took great care for Beamish and I'd greatly recommend them!”

My regular sitter had to cancel last minute and I was lucky enough to meet Anastasia. She took excellent care of my dog. She sent the pictures and updates that dog owners love to get when they board their dogs. I feel like Anastasia takes extra special care of the animals she watches.
Teresa was so kind and energetic. She sent us pictures of Otoro the whole time we were gone - he went to walks and hikes and played and came back tired (in the best way!) I will definitely be booking with Teresa again the next time we are looking for someone to hang out with Otoro!
Hannah was great. She took our dog to the beach one or two times a day (his happy place), and was responsive and communicative when our dog swallowed something. I felt like she handled it all well. Also, with a big family, our dog was around people a lot which he loves. Their location is close to the beach in Live Oak, and they also have access to a large fenced in property behind the house.
Ceili took such good care of my dog while I was away and kept me updated with pictures and what they were doing throughout each day. She even took her to the dog park and to get a pup cup. My dog is very anxious, but seemed really comfortable around here. 10/10 would recommend her and use her again!
Michael was an incredible sitter for my 10-year-old dog while I was traveling for 5 days. Michael made me feel comfortable and reassured at drop off by his calm demeanor and safe yard, his friendly dogs and neighborhood. He was very quick to respond to any communication, and watched my dog for an extra 8 hours due to my flight having serious delays. He was gracious and so kind to care for my dog like his own and go above and beyond with my delay. Would definitely request to have my dog stay with Michael again.
Jenna and her family did an excellent job caring for my dog for three days and two nights in their home. This was the first time using Jenna as a sitter and her care exceeded my expectations. My dog is a 1:1 dog and she is extremely anxious in new surroundings and situations. Because of Jenna’s expertise and the family’s love and skills in dog sitting, my dog settled in quickly and adopted her new family easily. I will use Jenna in the future when I need a dog sitter. Jenna’s communication is prompt. She sent me regular text updates and photos which kept me in the know and made me relax knowing that my dog had adjusted and was in capable loving hands. I chose Jenna as a result of reading her reviews. These reviews were on point! I highly recommend Jenna for your dog sitting needs.
Bethiah and her Hubbie are the BEST people. They are active and loving. Our pup does not warm to all humans but at Bethiah’s house she fully sprawls on her back for tummy rubs. She got to go to the beach all the time, got snuggled into her bed and even got some time to chill in the Van life van! I cannot say enough about this family and how much we both trust and appreciate them. Thanks guys!!
