“Madalys was so kind and sweet with our kitties. It was our first time leaving them with anyone and It couldn’t have been better. They seemed happy to see her! Thank you Madalys.”

“I use Tatiana regularly to care for my kitty Bella. Recently I had to be away for 2 weeks. Bella loves Tatiana and was relaxed and happy the whole time I was gone. Tatiana goes above and beyond to ensure I have peace of mind when I have to be away and to be sure Bella has everything she needs!”

“Jocelyn did a fantastic job with drop in visits for our cats Cacio and Pepe. She covered all their basic needs and favorite things on each visit. She even cleaned up when one of our cats got sick. Loved receiving photos each time she finished a check in! Would definitely book again in a heartbeat.”


About: I’ve had 8 dogs throughout my life and can take care of all dogs from puppies to senior dogs. Neighbors, family, and friends have trusted me to take care of their dogs, cats, and even bunnies. I’m currently in school so I have plenty of time for your lovely fur-babies. I am available for sitting all day on weekends, and weekdays after 2 pm, I can even pop by in the mornings to feed your pups. I have a fenced in yard and 3 fur babies for yours to play with. I know special tricks to get dogs to eat medicine if they need it as I’ve had many pups in need of medicine.
“Kim was wonderful with our 10 week old puppy. She provided great care and feedback after doing 2 drop in visits. She maintained our routine as we are crate training and potty training our sweet little Maisie!”

“Dani is great -- my dog loves her! She's communicative, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and clearly loves dogs. She takes great care and even sent me a photo of something she noticed on my dog, which I truly appreciated. I can relax knowing my dog is in great hands with Dani!”

“Rachel did a great job taking care of my dog Winnie. He's 14 years old and needs extra attention. Rachel sent me feedback and helped Winnie out when he needed it. I highly recommend her, Charlie”

“We are so thankful to have found Alexis! When we first met her, she instantly put our minds at ease. She is punctual, communicative, and responsible. She stayed at our house with our dog for a week and took wonderful care of both our dog and our home. We got updates and pictures daily and quick responses to our texts. With Alexis watching our dog, we were able to have a worry-free vacation!”


“A fantastic relationship through and through. Kim is extremely responsive to communications. Her interaction with my little dog Fred - who is very shy and tentative with new people - was great. She reassured me during my trip that Fred was doing well and interacted with Kim very well. I am grateful for the sitting / home visits Kim provided. I would not hesitate to use Kim in the future.”

“Sam is a conscientious, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter who took great care of my cat. Sam always asked thoughtful questions and double-checked with me if something was unclear. He made sure to play with my cat and give him plenty of attention. When our plans changed, Sam was helpful and willing to change his schedule. He even remembered important things I forgot, like returning our house key to us! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

“Kristen L is a perfect dog sitter. She was prompt and sent pictures of my dog to me. She did exactly what I asked of her. My dog appeared very happy when I got home. I will absolutely be using Kristen again.”


About: I have over 40 years experience caring for dogs and animals. My experience includes employment with a veterinarian, employment at a kennel, and a lifetime of dog ownership. We custom built our home to be a perfect paradise for a dog's life. We have a beautiful fenced in private backyard that offers a grass area, deck area, and a woods area for those adventuresome puppies! We have a dog door for those dog guests that want frequent outings or door service by us for those less ambitious doggies. A typical day at doggy paradise includes numerous supervised romps in the fenced in backyard, walks in the neighborhood, lots of love, and plenty of water and meals as per owners instructions. As a little background we just lost our last two dogs within the past two years, one to old age, and one young to cancer. We still want dogs in our life so we are now boarding. Note: An additional daily surcharge will be collected for dogs over 55lbs, details will be addressed at booking depending on dogs weight and age. Thank you Full time care. We will take great care of your pet in our home and fenced in backyard. Typically there is an adult present for full 24 hr care. I have a fenced in yard where dogs are let out. I follow your specific dogs instructions and routine, depending on what they are used to.

About: I've taken care and spent time with many breeds dogs, and have experience with drop-in visits, pet sitting, pet boarding, and dog walking. I have also trained my dog to follow simple commands such as "sit", "lay down", "shake", and "turn around" and have taught my dog and both my cats to come when they are called. I am back from college for the summer and have a very open schedule, so I have lots of time to spend with your pets! I have a big yard and live in a very walkable area. I have two cats and a little dog that all get along well with other animals.

“Zoe was excellent! She went above and beyond to make sure that Dandy was comfortable with her. Dandy was calm and happy when I returned, so I know Zoe did a great job. I will definitely rebook her.”
