“Robert was a great sitter for our dog, Maggie! He was kept us updated the whole time and even asked if he could use ear cleaner for Maggie when she had an itchy ear! The pictures he sent were amazing, we’ll probably have one framed! Maggie came home happy, healthy and tired ☺️”
“I was incredibly greatful Donte was able to watch Marley very last minute after someone else cancelled 2 days before and another ghosted me after agreeing. Marley has never stayed outside our house, so I (and Marley) was so nervous, but he seemed just perfect.”
“Our experience with Brian has been wonderful from the start. He was very responsive, and took the time to really understand Scotty’s schedule and needs. Scotty had a wonderful time with his family, they provided a very warm & caring home for our baby while we were away. Scotty also had a great time bonding with Brian’s dogs Bruno and Lily, and they are now friends for life! Brain will definitely be our first choice going forward.”
“Awesome sitters! They took great care of Winnie and provided lots of photos and updates. Great communication and reliability. I could tell Winnie got lots of attention and care.”
“So sweet on my fur baby :) Aimee and her husband were great. Had a a really comforting meet and greet beforehand. The stay was easy, happy, and puppylicious! Thanks!”
“Dave is an awesome person who has you and your pets best interests. He’s watch Asher twice and took care of him while I went away. You can trust him and he will keep his word. Would recommend to anyone. Peace.”
“Kevin was responsive and accommodating. My fearful pup usually is afraid of other dogs and people, but he was safe and happy during his stay. Kevin also provided updates throughout. Will definitely book again.”
“Olivia was absolutely amazing with our senior pups, Luna (our Husky) and Kiwi (our Pug). It’s not always easy finding someone who understands the needs of older dogs, but Olivia was incredibly patient and kind. She kept us updated throughout their stay with sweet photos and check-ins that made us feel completely at ease. Kiwi still has bursts of playful energy, while Luna enjoys a slower, calmer pace — and Olivia balanced their different needs beautifully. We came home to two happy pups and that says everything. We’re so grateful to have found her and would absolutely book with Olivia again in a heartbeat.”
“Saya and David were great! Saya sent us pictures and videos and it looked like our Tanooki was having a fun staycation while we were overseas. It was our first time leaving Tanooki for such a long time but we had nothing to worry about, thanks to Saya and David. We will definitely look you up when we need to go away again. Thank you so much!!!”
“Alex and her family were very welcoming. I like that they did a meet and greet just to ensure that my dog would be a good fit for them to take care of. My dog was very excited to be with them and they took great care of him. I received updates and pictures during his stay. I am grateful to them to be able to enjoy my vacation and know that my precious Goose was in great hands. I am appreciative and grateful for such wonderful service.”
“Patty is the absolute best! She took such great care of my dog Pippa for an extended stay. She was so kind and communicative. She treated my little girl like she was her own. She and her husband are truly dog whisperers.”
“Jennifer and her family have been absolutely amazing sitters for my dog Nico. We have used her for multiple occasions and, he is always so excited to stay with them. She iwas very accommodating when we needed to leave Nico last minute and Jennifer does a great job at sending super cute photos and updates regularly. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter for their pets. We are so lucky to have found her and feel confident that Nico is in good hands.”
“Bambi had a great stay with Jessica! As always, she had lots of outdoor time and came home happy and exhausted. Looking forward to our next stay!”
“Porter had the best time ever! We got so many pictures and follow up and knew he was in the best hands. Will definitely use for trips in the future. Thank you so so much!”
“Dana was amazing!!! My boys enjoyed their stay with her and Mr. Max🥰 They were very comfortable with Dana which put me at ease. She sent pics and updates of my boys having a great time. I'm so happy that I found you Dana!💛We’ll be booking again with you in the future. Thanks again!”
“Our first time leaving Max with Sangeetha and I was very nervous. Max, who was a rescue from a neglect situation, is aggressively affection. At 85lbs, he can sometimes prove to be a LOT. Sangeetha and her husband were wonderful with Max! He was so happy and comfortable with them (I have many pictures to prove it) and he came home better behaved than before he left!!! Sangeetha will be our sitter of first choice from here on out!”
“Was thrilled to have Stephanie watch Clowe! I always got updates on how she was doing, and plenty of pictures! Next time I need somebody to watch my pup, Stephanie will be the first person I’m calling. Thanks!!!”
About: I am IT professional who works remotely from home full time, so you pup will always have company and supervision. My 16 years old furry baby Lucy just crossed the rainbow bridge and left me heart broken, but she taught me so much about patience, daily routine and senior dog care. I truly love dogs and treat them like my baby. No kids in my household. What I offer: * Calm, cozy and clean home * One dog at a time - personalized attention * Regular potty breaks, meals and snuggles * Short walks and playtime if your pup enjoys it. * Daily photo updates for peace of mind. Since I work remotely from home as an IT professional, I have flexible and quiet daily routine that's perfect for pet care. My home is calm, clean and peaceful - ideal for dogs who need a relaxed and attentive environment. Because I'm always home, your dog gets companionship and attention all day - not left alone like in a busy kennel. I only take ONE dog at a time, so your dog is never competing for attention. I live with my husband in a quiet neighborhood, have a fenced yard. I can easily crate your dog if you needed. We treat the dog as our baby :)
“We had a great experience boarding with Leah. We arranged a meet and greet prior which was helpful for me and my husband and probably our dog Maggie. Leah was a good communicator and flexible. I feel like she took good care of Maggie and that her dogs were good companions and helped Maggie pass the time playing. I’m not sure our dog missed us at all. Thank you Leah and family.”
“We were very happy with the excellent care Chrissy gave Sammie. Chrissy sent lots of pictures and videos! When we picked Sammie up he was very happy but he didn't want to leave. He felt right at home, LOL! We already booked her for another sleepover! I would highly recommend Chrissy to anyone.”
