“Iris & Tomas helped watch our dog while we attended a pet first aid/CPR class nearby. This was our first time having anyone watch her, so we were a little nervous. They were able to squeeze us in last minute and do a meet and greet. They sent us many photos and played with her and kept her occupied until we could pick her up. We would definitely request them again if needed!”
“Cara was great! Responded quickly to my super last minute request to watch our 5 year old Vizsla. She was very friendly and kept us updated about our baby. We would recommend Cara and would book with her again. Thanks so much.”

“Carolina was wonderful! She is so kind. Carolina allowed Murphy and us to meet prior to our first sitting day...Murphy was able check out her house/sniff around, which made us feel more comfortable dropping him off! We were able to meet her family as well which put us completely at ease-such wonderful kids! On Murphy's first day with Carolina, she sent pics and updates of our fur-baby settling in and comfortable at her home!! When I picked him up at the end of his day, I could tell he was happy and well cared for. We will be bringing Murphy back!! We are so happy we found Carolina! She is truly lovely and so good to our 'baby'.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and genuinely feel a connection and understanding of them. Looking forward to meeting and building a connection with your faithful companions! I work from home and have availability to look after other pets in the home. We recently had to put down our English mastiff and just looking for some extra activity around the house. I have a fenced in yard and love to go for walks around the block or to the park. Getting some steps in with the furry companions is a great refresher for the day
About: I love dogs all my life and experienced with daily feeding routines, leash walking, potty breaks, and basic supervision. I take dogs on 3–4 leashed walks per day and closely monitor their comfort, behavior, and safety. I am a full time staying home mom so I have plenty of times to take care of your dogs. I want to make a schedule at least 5 days earlier. Calm, clean house with a yard (not fenced). Dogs are always supervised and taken on 3–4 leashed walks daily. I accept small, medium dogs only and host one guest at a time, alongside my friendly Cavapoochon Taco.
“She took wonderful care of our Layla for daycare. Layla can be shy but seemed happy with her stay. I especially appreciated the pictures sent during the day.”
“Carolina was so nice! She was super flexible with me as I was in a rush dropping off my pup. I got plenty of updates and photos throughout the evening. I would definitely rebook with her again!”
About: My Husband and I welcomed my dog 7 years back in the family when we had no plan to have a pet but we just had to bring her home. I have trained her all by myself and received many compliments on how well-behaved my pet is. I have taken care of my friend's fur friends multiple times. Zusa gets along with pretty much everyone with a condition of them remembering who the queen is in the house lol there’s 40% chance of her playing with your pet but she’ll mostly mind her own business which noting everyone who stopped by- by the bay window that’s 10ft long. Your fur baby will be allowed there too after 24hrs of stay😊 we enjoy pets more than humans😜 which is why your pets likely to be cuddled here not just for the show. They’ll be treated as a cousin of Zusa visiting and nothing less than that. I work from home, so I have plenty of time to entertain your fur friend! I'm available on weekdays anytime after 10 am and accommodate them over weekends with some heads up. I have a fenced yard, lots of toys, and a Shitzu to give your pet company. I do have pretty much everything but a crate, so if you believe your pet will be more comfortable with that, then please bring it with you.
About: Hey there! I'm a lifelong dog lover and work-from-home dog dad who understands that your dog isn't "just a pet"—they're family. My goal is to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and has an amazing time while you're away, so you can travel with complete peace of mind. I've had dogs my entire life and currently share my home with two energetic, incredibly friendly dogs who love making new friends. They know how to burn off energy with playtime, but they're just as happy relaxing on the couch for a nap afterward. If your dog enjoys socializing, they'll have built-in playmates to keep them entertained throughout the day. Because I work from home, your dog will rarely be left alone. My flexible schedule allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, play sessions, meals on time, and plenty of affection. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer or prefers a slower pace with lots of cuddles, I'll tailor their care to fit their personality and routine. I'm also comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and with special needs. I have hands on experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I am adept at administering medications, including pills and injections, and I've cared for dogs with sensitive stomachs, digestive issues, and mobility concerns. I'll carefully follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special routines so your dog receives the same level of care they're used to at home. I know how important trust is when someone is caring for your best friend. I'll treat your dog like one of my own and your home with the same respect and care I'd expect for mine. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can see all the fun your pup is having while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! I work from home standard Mon - Fri, 9am - 5pm hours. I go to dance classes Tuesday nights, Church on Sundays and spend the rest of my time with my beautiful wife and our dogs. My free time outside of those commitments I can dedicate to taking care of your doggos. I can also take frequent breaks from work to keep dogs entertained and take them to the bathroom if needed often. I am best situated to have your pets in my home. While they are there, they have couch access and access to multiple rooms. I have gates throughout the house to sequester any wandering troublemakers or for those that need more supervision. I have a fenced in yard for amazing playtimes, and my subdivision has an elementary school with beautiful greenspace for long walks and adventure. I also work in your home, so I will be there if you are booking with me! I make sure to clean up after myself and the pet and maintain proper respect and morals whilst in your home. I just need to have a decent internet connection so I can work during the weekdays.
About: Growing up with dogs all my life they hold a special spot in my heart. I started pet sitting in middle school. Once in high school I began house sitting. Have experience in all breeds including fish, lizards, rodents, cats, farm animals and many breeds of dogs. Also experienced in caring for service, retired, adopted and sick dogs. I can’t wait to have more animals when I can give them the right home and care. I take pictures during visits and walks to send to owners. I always say A tired dog is a happy dog I am very honest about my schedule and even if I want to book a service I think of the animals best interest first. If I don’t think I can provide the best possible care I make sure to notify the owner of my short comings Meeting new people is scary even for humans so animals it can be just as much. I make sure I approach the animal where they are and make sure all their needs a fully met while they get use to me and we become friends. I love to cuddle, pet and play with animals! I am always looking to give them new experiences and adventures. I document how they feel, act and react to make sure I can supply what they need
“Samantha was absolutely amazing to my puppy Kylo, she was really accommodating willing to get up super early to babysit Kylo! She communicated really well throughout the day, sending lots of pictures and videos. And responding right away to my text. She was very attentive to Kylo throughout the day, she didn’t just leave him in his crate. He played super hard and had so much fun. He passed right out when we got home. Her family was also very welcoming to Kylo as well. Overall a really good experience we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Nicole and Mike are wonderful sitters and just wonderful people all around. They were so attentive and loving to our large playful puppies...very helpful and accommodating to our dogs, one needing extra love and attention, and the other requiring extra attention because of his high energy and rambunctious personality. I know taking on both of my large dogs, with two different personalities, required some extra effort...and I feel they went above and beyond to help get my fur babies adjusted to our big move from across the country. I can't thank them enough.”

Heidi was excellent with Chester! She was super responsive, friendly, and provided such thoughtful care. It was clear that Chester had a great time at her home and was very well cared for. We really appreciated the updates and felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We would definitely recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a wonderful sitter!
June watched my golden retriever, Toby? and was very accommodating toward my needs. She treated his hot spots, made sure he got his daily walks, and made him feel at home. I would highly recommend June as she takes great care of dogs of all types and treats them as if they’re her own. Thank you, June!
