About: I have been self-employed as a full-time dog sitter for the past 15 years. Prior to opening my dog sitting business I worked as an assistant dog trainer using positive reinforcement training methods. I require a meet and greet before confirming dates so you can see where your dog will be staying, you and your dog(s) can meet me in-person and see the house and yard. We will also discuss their care and specific needs. I have been a dog parent since 2004. I am a full-time dog sitter so I am always with the dogs to ensure they are properly cared for and getting all the exercise, love and attention they deserve. Dogs go in/out as much as they want and get all the love and attention they would just like at home. The yard is fully fenced and there is a ramp so senior dogs have an easier time getting in/out. I have crates set up for those dogs that are normally crated but it is not required for a dog to be crated. All dogs are allowed on the furniture and there are several dogs beds to choose from as well. Of course you can always bring your own if your dog would feel more comfortable having something from home. There is no shortage of treats, cuddles and time outside. I have experience caring for senior dogs, those with medical conditions, separation anxiety and fear of new people.

“Evelin was wonderful with Fletcher! Fletcher had the best time with her and her partner, and loves the dog park in their apartment complex! Evelin sent me lots of pictures throughout his stay and frequent updates. I would definitely have Fletcher stay with her in the future!”



“Having Kayla and her mother's help taking care of Kevin while I was out of town was fantastic! They took great care of him and he was super happy to see me and tired when we got home; just what I like! I was kept updated on how he was doing and was sent pictures to ease my mind. They were also very flexible to my schedule for drop off and pick up. Highly recommend and will use them again soon!”


“We have nothing but good things to say about our dog Lure’s stay! Our dog loved playing with Emily’s dog Finn. Emily was so good at messaging us about what they’ve been up to and how Lure was doing. We will definitely book Emily again:-) Thank you”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—growing up in a home full of fish, birds, cats, dogs, and rodents taught me early on that pets are family. I truly believe every animal deserves love, patience, and attentive care. Today, I share my home with my friendly dog Birdie, who loves meeting new furry friends and makes a great playmate. My two kids are also passionate animal lovers, and together we create a safe, warm, and pet-friendly environment. I’m experienced in administering medications, whether pills, drops, or topical treatments, and I’m happy to support pets with special needs. I also offer daily walks for exercise and enrichment, and I’m comfortable with crate training if it’s part of your routine. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or relaxed, I’ll treat them with the same love and respect I give my own. I work full-time during the week, but on my weekends off, I love spending my time caring for animals. Pet care has always been a part of my life, and I’m excited to offer reliable, loving support to fellow pet parents when I’m available. Whether it’s weekend drop-ins, walks, or cuddles while you’re away, I’m here to help give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is fully pet-friendly and thoughtfully pet-proofed to ensure a secure environment. I use baby gates to create designated pet areas, so dogs can have their own space or be kept out of certain rooms when needed. I also have a large, fully fenced backyard—perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Fresh water is always available in multiple areas of the home to keep pets hydrated throughout the day. Whether your pet loves to run or relax, they’ll have a secure, comfortable, and caring space to enjoy.

“Lindsay was quick to respond to all my messages and made it easy to arrange drop off and pick up. She sent a number of photos of my dog and took her for a number of long walks, just what the dog needs to balance her abundance energy. I would highly recommend her and will use her again.”


“Da Yeon and her partner were great with Teddy! I think he’s mad to be coming home with me lol. Saved me when I had a vacation already planned and wasn’t planning on having Teddy at this time, felt super bad being a new cat mom having to leave, but he was in great hands.”


“Our pups did so well here! Emily communicates so well about how the dogs do and we feel serious peace of mind when they are with her. And the picture updates are so sweet!”

“I brought my rescue dog to Hope soon after my dog came home. Hope immediately recognized that she needed some further training an assessment before coming to daycare. Her recommendation was spot on. She knows dogs, knows my dog and creates an environment of safety and contentment for all dogs. She is caring, meticulous about any special needs, and attentive to each dog in her care. My dog is very eager to go to Hope's. When my dog has boarded with Hope, she comes home happy. I am very confident in Hope's care.”

17. Christine W.
“Your pet will truly be in the best of care with Christine. You could not ask for a better person who knows so much about pet care! She has personally loved such.a wide variety of pets with such compassion, that whether you have a dog, cat, beta fish or fancy rats, she will do everything she possibly can to insure they are well cared for. I lived with Christine for several years, and during the time we were together, I saw how much care she put in to each and every pet member of our household, whether or not she was the "owner" of the pet or if their care was her "responsibility." She even has vet assistance and grooming experience so you know your pet is in good hands! Having lived with Christine and seen her dedication to responsible pet ownership day in and day out, I know from experience that you can trust that she will give extra consideration and genuine care to your pets.”
