“Joscelyn and Ivan and their 2 sweet kids took great care of our little 8 pound Morkie! You can tell they love dogs and love caring for them. Joscelyn is a great communicator and sent many pictures to keep us updated. We would definitely use them again!”
“I had a trip I had my usual sitter unable to watch my Great Dane with very short notice. Natalie responded quickly and eased my worries about finding someone to watch my girl. When I arrived she was welcoming and Lucy warmed up to her quickly. I got pictures during the stay showing Lucy was doing well and having a good time. I will definitely use Natalie again for boarding services!”
About: I've grown up surrounded by pets—from energetic pups to laid-back cats—and caring for animals has always been second nature. For the past three years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my family during vacations, making sure their pets are safe, happy, and loved. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet! Working third shift gives me a flexible daytime schedule, which means I’m wide awake and available when most people are at work. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or midday check-ins, I have the time and energy to give your pet the attention they deserve. I provide care from my apartment, creating a safe and cozy environment for your pet. I live in a very quiet pet friendly neighborhood. I'm also physically strong, which allows me to confidently handle larger or high-energy dogs while keeping them safe and happy
“Anne was great, Boo really seemed comfortable at her home. We know because when we picked her up she was barking at other dogs walking outside, so she must have felt right at home. Anne sent lots of photos and updates while we were gone. She seemed to genuinely care not just for Boo but for the other two dogs we saw in her care at drop off. We highly recommend Anne and will use her again.”
“She is great and has a passion for pets! She is very accommodating in your travel times and tries to make it easy on pick up and drop off. Super professional and your pet will have the best time!!! Highly recommend!”
“Ozzie had the best care at Stephanie’s. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home with me! She treated him just like her own and I feel very lucky to have had found her. I will definitely try to rebook next time we travel.”
“Heather was a great sitter. This was Alister’s first time being away, she made his transition very smooth. She provided pictures and updates regularly which was very comforting to me knowing he was being well care for. I will use Heather again.”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! This was the first time we left our dog (CC) overnight since we got her in December, so I was a little anxious about it. Jennifer was so kind and I knew instantly that CC was in excellent hands. I was so happy to receive updates and photos throughout the few days and I cannot recommend Jennifer enough!”
“Left my girl with him for the first time ever. I’ve never used an app to find care for her and he kept me updated on what she was doing and put my mind at ease. I would use Salehin again”
“Highly recommend Karisa! She kept me updated throughout their stay and sent me pictures. She also sent them home with homemade dog cookies. Her house looked very clean and my dogs were happy and healthy when they returned home.”
“Violet always has the best time when she goes to Agnathas home! She comes back exhausted, from all the play time she gets in while there! Agnatha loves to spoil Violet as well, she snuggles her and lets her on the sofa! I was worried Violet wouldn’t want to come back home with us. It is a nice relief knowing our pup is getting the best care while we are away!”
“Nelson was kept busy with swimming ( his favorite thing), playing ball, and socializing with other dogs his size. He was happy and pooped when we picked him up. Greg did an amazing job and is a new favorite of ours!”
“Kristen is amazing with our Jack Russel. She always sends pictures and let's us know how she is doing. We always trust her when we have to go out of town.”
“Brian was very quick to respond to our request to watch our dog Pepper. He graciously helped us out when we had to find a replacement dog sitter on short notice.😊 His dog and ours got along well together and he kept Pepper exercised and comfortable during the stay. We are very pleased to highly recommend Brian for any needs you may have! Thanks so very much Brian.😉”
“Our Poppi had a blast being with Sara! So much so we don't think she wanted to leave. 😊 We will be return customers for sure!!! Thank you Sara for keeping our sweet girl comfortable while we were away!”
“If I could give Erin 10 stars I would. She took great care of our dog Lucy! Lucy was a rescue dog from an abusive situation. She has a lot of separation anxiety. We were pretty nervous about leaving her for several days for our son’s wedding. It was clear immediately that Lucy really liked Erin and felt comfortable with her. When we picked her up she was excited to see us but wasn’t clingy or nervous like I expected. Erin sent numerous pictures and updates. We’re very happy with the care Lucy received and will definitely book with Erin again.”
“Mrs Nan and her family were the perfect choice for my pup's first pet sitter. My rogue can be stand offish with new people since she was adopted right before COVID-19 start. Mrs. Nan was patient with her, loved on my girl as much as rogue allowed, encouraged her to eat when she was depressed, and checked on her through out the day when Rogue decided to hide in her crate instead of playing with Nate. I received multiple pictures and updates, and Mrs Nan was quick to answer questions on how things were going. I highly recommend using Mrs Nan, I plan to use her again.”
“Great experience! A wonderful family that loved on our dogs while we were gone. We received pictures every day and put us at ease with our first Rover experience. I highly recommend!”
