About: Unleash the Love: Transforming Pet Care into a Tail-Wagging Adventure! I have had the pleasure of caring for a wide range of pets over the past fifteen years, including dogs, cats, birds, and small mammals. During this time, I have developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors, allowing me to provide exceptional care and create a nurturing environment for each pet. I am a highly responsible and reliable caregiver, always ensuring the safety and security of the pets under my care. I am attentive to their individual needs and provide personalized attention, ensuring they receive the love, exercise, and mental stimulation they require. Moreover, I am a strong communicator and believe in building trusting relationships with both pets and their owners. I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to keep owners informed and reassured that their beloved pets are in capable hands. I am also attentive to the specific instructions and preferences of each pet owner, ensuring that their individual needs and routines are met. I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and creating a positive and enriching experience for both pets and their owners. I’m currently working from home with a flexible schedule. I have plenty of time to ensure your pet is receiving personalized attention, food, love, exercise, and mental stimulation. I have a house with a large living room that is usually my furry friends' playroom and bedtime. There are no other pets around except my adorable and friendly cat Cher.

About: Hi I’m Kathleen! I am huge animal lover who grew around pets and I have over 4 years of experience providing patient, responsible, and dedicated care. I don't currently have any dogs or cats of my own, which means your pup gets 100% of my undivided attention, love, and care. My home is a calm, safe space where your pet can truly relax and feel right at home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I am home most of the day. I am available all days for boarding and can easily accommodate flexible pick-up and drop-off times for owners. At my clients/my home I will provide photos, and videos of your pet and provide updates to insure you have a safe, and trusted experience!
“Doris is a very sweet and caring person. She took a great care of my Molly. She gave my girl lots of attention and took her out for walks. I’ll definitely get back to Doris for more help with my girl.”

About: I've always had animals growing up and I loved taking care of them. I have 10 years of experience taking care of my own pets. I made sure they were fed a balanced diet, they had their daily walks, they were upto date with their vaccines. I also made sure that they were well-groomed, given lots of love and attention and spoiled rotten with toys! I currently work full time but I am available anytime after 3pm to pet sit the little cuties and I am free anytime on the weekends. I do not have yard space but I am close to the beach and there are a few parks to take the dogs for a walk!
About: For most of my life I have cared for many dogs as a pet owner and a dog sitter for friends, family and clients alike. Currently I freelance as a media professor and my schedule fluctuates from week to week so its always best to check my calendar for availability. The dogs will receive all my love and attention. I thrive off their unconditional love and I love to see them happy. Simple as that.
“Judith is amazing she is very pleasant and friendly. My dog was playing and having so much fun while with her. I had to book her last minute and she was available and ready to accommodate my dog again. I would highly recommend her to anyone, she is the best and I’ll be using her services from here on out!!”

“What a lovely person - I’d give her 100 stars if that were an option. To explain, I had to go into my office LAST minute and at 1230 am it was my first time using this app and I posted requests for someone to basically dog sit for the same day- she was immediately responsive even though it was a last minute request. I saw she had already gotten consistent great reviews and I was worried to leave my 7 week old shih tsu (like a baby) with anyone ) -Jameeka she handles all dog ages - she was responsive, kept me updated throughout the day. I even got stuck in traffic on the way for pick up and was late she was fine. The top 3 reasons I give Jameeka 5 stars is because 1) she is the opposite of stressful and worked with my unique needs, 2) she has great communication skills snd 3) it is clear she is an expert - my puppy was returned perfectly she gave me some updates and my puppy was happy and fell right asleep because Jameeka ensured my puppy got play time and exercise time - thank you !”

“Thai was great and able to step in when our sitter canceled last minute. Thai was thorough and asked great questions to make sure this was a good fit for my dog Max. Max had a great time; would def have Thai watch him again!”


“Robin was the BEST! She agreed to do a meet and greet with me and even brought her pups to meet my princess Honey. Even though I felt comfortable with her through our chats, meeting her in person beforehand put the cherry on top. Once booked, she took great care of of my Honey girl, sent so many photos and gave me cute updates while I was at work. This was my first booking and definitely will not be the last. She can absolutely be trusted with your fur babies. I’m so glad I took a chance as she made the experience worthwhile. Now my Honey has a home away from home!! Thank you Robin, see you again :)”

“Erica is truly the best! My dog is not often around other dogs so I wasn’t sure how he’d assimilate. She took the time and effort to introduce him to the group and make the transition as easy as possible on him. When he was nervous she kept him by her side to comfort him. She kept in touch with me all day- sending updates and photos to show me how he is doing. I HIGHLY recommend her as she is so loving and caring to the animals. I can tell Buffet feels at home with her and we will be a regular clients of hers! She is the best!!!”

“Galit is amazing. Our pup loved his time with her. She clearly loves dogs and takes great care of those in her care. She was incredibly communicative and sent lots of pictures. We will be returning! Thanks Galit!”

“Lina provided exceptional care for my baby, Viper. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in good hands. She not only tended to his basic needs but also showered him with love and attention. It was evident that she genuinely cared for his well-being and treated him as if he were her own. Throughout his stay, Lina kept me updated with photos and messages, which eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing Viper was happy and content. Additionally, her knowledge and expertise in handling dogs reassured me that Viper was receiving the best care possible. I highly recommend Lina to anyone in need of a responsible and caring pet sitter.”

“Vanessa is a gem - responsive, polite, clean, caring, loving, and always available. We were looking for a pet sitter who could provide a loving and stable environment for our pup with separation anxiety, as we wanted to reduce his reliance on medication. Vanessa exceeded our expectations, providing a calm and nurturing presence that has greatly benefited our Blaze. We're grateful to have found her, and her care has given us peace of mind. If you're seeking a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter, Vanessa is an excellent choice.”

“It was my first time having my dog with Michele and she took great care of my dog. She updated me every hour with photos and responded very quickly. It made me feel assured that my dog was doing good.”

“This was my fur baby, Milo’s first time attending daycare. Initially, I was concerned about how he would adjust to a new environment. The fact that Stephanie provided me with pictures and contacted me prior to his stay made me feel more comfortable leaving him with her. It was a pleasant surprise to see Stephanie had created a welcoming environment and her fur baby was also present, which I felt was an excellent opportunity for Milo to be able to socialize with other dogs. In addition to toys and treats, Stephanie provided Milo with everything he needed to feel comfortable. Additionally, Stephanie sent many updates and pictures of Milo throughout the day. As soon as I picked him up, I could tell he had enjoyed his stay and that he would be returning in the future. Stephanie, thank you so much for taking such excellent care of Milo!”

“Rachel & John were incredible with our energetic and playful puppy. Their beautiful dog, Kimbo, quickly became our pup's best friend and dealt with his young demeanor with patience. Our puppy returned home as tired as he does after a day at the dog park which is a huge luxury after a long day at work. Rachel was very communicative and flexible with our schedule, her home is spacious, clean and the backyard is a huge plus. Very lovely people generally, would love to book again in the future.”
“Janis took great care of Freya and kept me updated through the day. She was able to sit for me on short notice and was awesome throughout the whole process. Thank you!”

“Vivian really took care of Jayce like her own pooch. She’s very mindful and attentive to Jayce, especially with his anxiety she is very caring and really made him feel comfortable!”
