I also offer bathing and grooming services if that's something you are interested in.. Morning walk, breakfast, a little play time, rest.. If weather permits, we let the dog be outside the backyard to roam around or just lay down to have some sun. When afternoon comes, another bathroom break, kids comes home from school will play with the dog for a while, then comes the evening, bathroom break, then dinner. Although I don't have a fenced in yard, but I have the anchored leash in the yard. I trained my dog to stay within our promises.. I'll make sure the dogs I care for will be leashed to the outdoor leash.

“Yenny watched my 1 yr old dog, Porscha, for the first time today. I reached out to her based on a friend’s recommendation. She was so kind and I could tell Porscha was going to be in good hands. Porscha played all day with Yenny’s dog, Duke and loved running around in the backyard. Yenny was very responsive and constantly shared pictures of Porscha throughout the day. We will definitely book with her again!”


“Margarita was absolutely amazing! She took great care of my pup, Ari, who has separation anxiety. She was so thoughtful and immediately took Ari on a walk when I dropped him off so he'd get familiar with her before she brought him into a foreign home and introduced him to her dog. She took him on several walks, and he was so happy and relaxed when he came back. Margarita is so sweet, responsive, and flexible. I would definitely trust Margarita again to look after Ari.”

Ronald B.Star Sitter
“My wife and I adopted our dog five years ago, at the height of the pandemic. Of course, the only way to socialize her was during walks. Even then she was tentative, if not on the defensive, when engaging with other dogs and their owners. This was by no means the case with Ron and his pup. I’ve since witnessed that Ron is especially good with all dogs, and his dog is evidence of this. Janey‘s anxiety and hyper-attachment to us remains. Ron’s offer to take care of her for a long-weekend was the only one we considered (and accepted more than once.) Not only are we sure Janey will always be in excellent hands, but we’re confident that she’ll feel safe and secure in our absence.”
