About: I care for dogs of all different sizes and temperaments and have specialized experience caring for reactive and skiddish doggos. I know how hard it can be but it’s also that much more rewarding. Booking with me you will have peace of mind and your dog will be cared for as if they were my own My schedule is fully flexible so your pets have my complete attention while they are in my care. I try to maintain their typical routine while you’re away to minimize their stress. I provide as much TLC as possible and as a bonus I can reinforce any training you’d like while you’re away. All pups tend to feel very comfortable around me and my experience with even “challenging” temperaments has prepared me to love every unique personality. Regardless of whether you’d like me to spend the night in your home I will be with your dog at least 3 times a day and spend quality time in the home together and exercise outside twice a day in addition to potty breaks
“Ashley and Mauricio did a great job caring for Turmeric/Ric the cat. They sent lots of pictures playing with him and petting him each night we were away. I know he was very well cared for and it set my mind at ease! Will definitely book them again!!! Highly recommend!”
“Nicole is wonderful with my Atlas. She is always on time, communicative, and sends lots of pics. I was concerned that he might develop separation anxiety when I returned to work, but Nicole’s drop-ins keep him happy and engaged (the only separation anxiety is mine 😊). Her consistency and experience is helping him learn his manners (leash and potty etiquette) very well.”
“I am very grateful Emma was available last minute to drop in and take care of Honey. She responded immediately and followed through. She is very reliable and professional.”
“Elvia was great with Ophelia! Came to do a meet and greet before, and was very flexible when our plans changed at the last minute, which we appreciated. We will definitely be booking dog sitting with Elvia again in the future!”
“Daniela was absolutely amazing. Her communication was outstanding and she was always on time. I will always use Daniela again in the future without a doubt!!”
“I had a wonderful experience with my dog sitter and would absolutely book with her again! She took excellent care of my two dogs and was attentive, kind, gentle, and professional throughout the entire process. She followed all instructions carefully, kept me updated, and treated my dogs as if they were her own. It gave me tremendous peace of mind knowing my pets were in such caring hands while I was away. When I returned home, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my girls! 🐾❤️”
About: Hi! I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter offering dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. I’ve cared for pets for friends and family, and I always follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease while you’re away. I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic and playful or more calm and independent. I’m attentive, communicative, and easy to reach, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on pet care. I’m consistent, reliable, and make sure to show up on time and fully focused on each visit. I’m happy to coordinate a schedule that works best for you and your pet’s needs. To keep your pet comfortable and stress-free, I care for them in their own home so they stay in a familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific care needs. *For dog walking*, I make sure each walk is safe, structured, and adapted to your dog’s energy level. I stay attentive at all times, give them space when needed, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being.
“Nina is wonderful. She made me feel so safe leaving my 7 month old puppy. I was able to enjoy my vacation and my dog loved her. She has great character and is an educated woman. I was blessed to find her . I wish she lived closer to me.”
“Annabel did a great job for my 2 cats while I was away for a week. She sent great pictures and even cleaned up when they got into a treat bag one day. Highly recommend!”
“Chris was great with my puppy! Very attentive to both my needs and my puppy’s needs during his visits. Great communication and photos to ease my nerves. I’m would highly recommend him for any of your pets needs!!”

Our dog goes on a daily walk. Other client care I do whatever the pet parent needs and wants to ensure the safety of their pet and whatever they are comfortable with.

“Maria was AMAZING! Our dog is really nervous around new people and she took such good care of him and made sure he had everything he needed. Will 100% rebook again”

Serena is amazing! I’d highly recommend her. She goes above and beyond. My cats were drawn to her from their first meet and greet. They loved her company & got attached and accustomed very quickly. She was very flexible & she listened to all instructions. She sent daily photos of my boys which we loved! Will definitely request her services again if we are ever out of town!

Danielle was an amazing cat sitter for Sasha. She was incredibly easy to communicate with from the beginning, and I really appreciated how she proactively asked thoughtful questions and made a detailed care plan instead of just doing the bare minimum. She followed all instructions perfectly, was very kind and reliable, and overall gave me a really comfortable and safe feeling while I was away. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I came home feeling relaxed knowing Sasha had been in such good hands. Highly recommend!
This cat sitter was fantastic and gave me total peace of mind while I was away for a week. They sent adorable daily photos and updates showing my cat happily playing, eating, and they kept everything food, water, litter box, and playtime—perfectly on schedule. I came home to a relaxed, healthy kitty, and I’ll be booking them again without hesitation!
i never met elvia, only spoke on the phone, making arrangements for my dog. Having never met her, leaving my house keys was honestly a bit uncomfortable for me. however, given her excellent reviews, i decided to just trust and go for it. elvia came exactly on time, fed and played with my dog for a half hour and then left. everything went just as planned. her communication was great, which was essential, and put me at ease. i had a postive experience.
Nicole is wonderful with my Atlas. She is always on time, communicative, and sends lots of pics. I was concerned that he might develop separation anxiety when I returned to work, but Nicole’s drop-ins keep him happy and engaged (the only separation anxiety is mine 😊). Her consistency and experience is helping him learn his manners (leash and potty etiquette) very well.
Kamila is the best find I ever had for my cat. Lots of photos and detailed feedback. She looked after my cat like her own and can tell she truly is an animals lover. She checked in on time each day and I can tell from the photos that she had a bond with my cat. Will definitely use her again for my next trip!!
Connor was great watching our cat Pepper while we were away! He sent photos and a detailed check in each day, making sure she had everything she needed. He went above and beyond cleaning around her little box and taking out the trash when he noticed it was full. Pepper can be quite shy, and he took the time to coax her out with toys and give her extra attention! Would highly recommend Connor for any pet sitting needs!
