“Don’t stress about it and book with Huaqing!! I was extremely nervous about leaving my cat, Muffin, with a new person. She’s usually a very timid and shy cat but with that updates Huaqing sent, I could see she was in caring hands!! Huaqing helped me out in a tough time/very last minute booking and I am very grateful. I definitely plan on reaching out to her again if I’m in need of a sitter.”


“Ángela and her family are so sweet and attentive. My pup was so happy during his stay. Angela made sure to update me everyday on his stay. I’ll definitely be reaching out again.”


“Wish I could give more ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️. Fantastic experience, and too bad I wasn’t aware of this sooner. After years of traditional boarding I found Tracy and she is amazing! Updates were appreciated and my pups are so much happier than when I pick them up from a boarding complex. Truly nice knowing my pups were in good hands!!”



“Pamela provided great service and was very helpful and patient with me as this was my first Rover experience. Aziz didn’t say much but we oth walked away satisfied. +++AAA”


“I couldn’t be happier with Alyssa and her family and the care they provided for my Rottie Odin. It usually takes him awhile to feel comfortable with new people, but she was sending pictures of him looking so happy and at home in just a few hours. She is clearly very knowledgeable about dog training and worked on this too while he was there. She was very communicative and sent many pictures and put my mind at ease the entire time I was gone. I am booking the next stay right now!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the last several years. I’m happy to take care of and get to know any kind of pet!! I’m in Physician Assistant school currently on clinical rotations. My schedule changes a bit week to week but there is plenty of time for me to take care of your furbabies. I’m happy to walk, let dogs out, and feed pets before and after work on days I go to clinic. On days I’m not working I’d be able to spend even more time with your pets, playing with them and keeping them company in addition to taking care of them! Just let me know what will make you most comfortable in terms of caring for your pets- walks on a leash, going out in the yard with them, feeding/treat schedules, medication schedules, etc. I’m happy to maintain your pets routine.

“Kaitlyn and Cody are the best! I had some last minute stuff come up and they welcomed my pup with open arms! I got lots of pictures which is amazing and always got my messages responded to in a timely manner! I can’t recommend them enough!”


“It was a nice experience for my dog’s staycation in their house. She keeps a good communication and sends pictures so we know how our dog is doing every day. I’ll definitely come back if need a dog sitter next time.”


“Constance a pleasure to deal with and the dogs had a blast! I am still not entirely sure if they were excited to see me or just surprised when I came to pick them up!”


“I couldn't be happier to have found Alex to watch my dog, Daisy. Daisy has a medical condition that requires special feeding requirements and lots of medications. Alex is absolutely amazing at following all of the directions and has come up with her own ideas for solutions to meet the needs of my high maintenance pup. Daisy practically drags me into Alex's house when I am dropping her off, because she's so excited to see Alex. Alex sends lots of pictures, too. Thank you, Alex, for the amazing work you do, which allows me to spend vacation time with my family without worrying about Daisy's health and happiness.”



“We've been using Catherine as our sitter for a couple years now. She's taken care of our fur baby MANY times during that time frame. Jasper LOVES going to her house. He gets excited the minute we enter her neighborhood....he knows exactly where he's going and he can't wait to get there! I cannot tell you how comforted that makes us feel. She is a wonderful sitter and we feel VERY fortunate to have found her!”


“Veronica and her husband were amazing!! Super great communication from start to finish and I just knew my dog was in great hands. Veronica stayed in touch with pictures of my pup and let me know how he was doing. I will definitely be using them again when we go out of town again!!!”


“I’m so thankful for Rachael and her family. I just started a new job, and they “ALWAYS” love on Mika and send plenty of photos/updates. I would tip her $100 if I had it.. Thank you and your family for your kindness, love, and always taking good care of Mika..A+++++”


“I cannot thank YLexus and Heather enough for taking such incredible care of my Great Dane while I was away for my nephew’s military graduation. From the moment we met at the initial meeting, I could tell they were kind, professional, and genuinely cared about my dog. The drop-off was seamless, and I felt completely at ease leaving my gentle giant in their hands. 😍 Throughout my trip, YLexus and Heather kept me in the loop with updates, photos, and messages, which truly gave me peace of mind while I was hundreds of miles away. It was so reassuring to know that my pup was in such loving and capable hands. 🫶🏽 If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND these lovely ladies! They went above and beyond, and I couldn’t be more grateful. 🐶🐾”

Toby loves staying with Danielle and Kyle! He’s very bonded to me and always settles in quickly with them. Most of his pictures he looks so happy and calm, which gives me peace of mind. This stay I had a few delays coming home & they were very accommodating like always. 10/10 recommend

I’m so happy with the care my dog received while I was away. Rachael was amazing, super communicative and made sure to keep me updated with videos. My dog looked so comfortable and happy the whole time, and came back calm, clean, and clearly well cared for. You can she genuinely love animals. I’ll definitely be booking again, highly recommend!

Alyssa was wonderful with my dog Lena. I recently adopted Lena and Alyssa worked with her on her behavior and training. She treated Lena like part of the family and sent daily pictures and updates. She responded quickly to my questions and check ins. Alyssa and her dogs went on daily walks with Lena and she took great care of Lena. Alyssa is awesome!!

Angela and the family took such great care of Nova while I was away. It’s hard for me to leave her but they provided lots of fun pictures that made my day throughout the stay, and it is obvious that she was in great hands. I would highly recommend them to others and am excited to have someone I can trust to watch and spoil her while I’m on vacation!

Bill is incredible! We also grateful that we found him! He took such excellent care of our dog, giving her lots of love, all the daily exercise our active girl desires and managing her picky eating habits. Payton can be anxious around new people however Bill had a way of making her feel instantly comfortable and at ease! He truly treats your dog as if it is his own! I would 100% recommend him!

We recently moved to the area and this was our first time leaving the boys and I’m so glad we found YLexus and Heather! Our boys had such a good time and weren’t even excited to see my husband when he went to pick them up. YLexus and Heather were easy to work with, gave great updates while we were gone and were very easygoing and flexible when our pick up time changed. Would highly recommend and will definitely use in the future!

My husband and I had to find a baby sitter for a day because we had a day-long event and wanted our pups taken care of since we would be out for so long. I found Huaqing and her profile checked all of our boxes. We have a 3 year old Pomeranian and a 4 month old Rottweiler, and she took the greatest care of them! She sent us so many pictures throughout the day of their walk breaks and them playing, and it gave me such relief to know our babies were having a great time! When we picked them up they slept right away because I know they had a blast and saw/ sniffed so many new things. Huaqing even packed us a bag of treats and a kind note talking about her day with the doggies. I would recommend her to anyone because I could tell she really does care about pets and their well- being. Thank you again a million time Huaqing!!
