Mo did a fantastic job taking care of our senior dog. Mo’s experience showed when asking for every possible detail on how best to care for both animals. Communicated very well, and kept everything nice and clean. Highly recommend.

Kimberly really gave us peace of mind leaving Gil with a sitter overnight for the first time. He is an anxious and reactive dog but seemed to be at ease for the visit. Would definitely re-book with Kimberly!

Our dog does not like people other than my wife really. But she took to Christine on day one and was climbing into her lap that night. It is such a relief to know someone who gets along with our dog is taking care of them. Would definitely hire again!

Luciana was amazing! She watched our two high-energy rescue dogs for the night, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. Our pups can be a handful, but she handled them with such care and confidence! They absolutely loved her! When we got home, they were happy, well-exercised, and clearly well cared for. Luciana also sent us lots of great photos and updates. On top of that, the house looked great when we returned. We’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced petsitter!

About: I grew up in a family where animals were always part of our home, at one point sharing life with six beloved pets. I’m a Boxer parent with experience caring for brachycephalic dogs and their unique needs. I offer calm, attentive, and intuitive care, treating every pet and every home as if they were my own, honoring routines, comfort, and emotional well-being with genuine love and respect. I’m on a career break with a flexible, open schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my days, giving pets my full attention, time, and care. The most important thing for me is that pet parents feel safe and confident while they’re away. I follow all instructions carefully and provide attentive, loving care to ensure your pets are happy, comfortable, and stress-free.

Kirby did an absolutely sensational job with our three dogs during me and my husband's wedding weekend! She showed up for two meet and greets before the weekend, and we knew our pups were going to be in great hands. Kirby was especially attentive to the needs of our Weimaraner, who has very bad separation anxiety. She sent thorough updates at the end of each day with lots of photos, and she took great care of our house. We will DEFINITELY continue to work with Kirby moving forward. 10/10 recommend to other dog owners looking for reliable in-house sitting.

Mo was absolutely fantastic with our senior boxer while we were out of town for six days. Mo is communicative, prompt, and proves that he genuinely cares. I have had some bad experiences with past pet sitters in the past. Mo listened to all my instructions and made me feel very heard and validated. When I returned home, my house was clean, my dog was happy, and I was grateful to have had Mo’s help. Mo is our new go to.

Corinne did a fabulous job watching our house full of critters. She expertly managed the house, two dogs, and a cat that command a lot of attention, but are in desperate need of human supervision. She sent kindly updates and checked in regularly throughout the stay. She made sure our mischievous fur babies were well taken care of.

Zac was great! I needed a last minute booking for a NYE trip and Zac came to the rescue. He sent updates and pictures everyday, administered Frankie’s medication as needed and even tried a new leash to help her not pull on walks (if you know Frankie, this is huge!) I would definitely book again

Could not have been more pleased with my experience with Nohemy! We were out of town for our honeymoon over Christmas when we had Nohemy stay at our home for 13 nights. Leading up to the trip Nohemy was happy to come by two separate times to meet my crazy boxers, go for short walks, so they can all get used to eachother. During the trip, Nohemy sent regular updates and pics and was never late to respond with our check ins. We were so at ease during the trip because it really felt like out fur babies were well taken care of, were happy and comfortable in their environment and in their same routine. He even took the boxers to daycare multiple times and I appreciate knowing they got the exercize and socializing they needed too! Will definitely book with Nohemy again in the future. 10/10
