1. Sunny M.
“Sunny took good care of our dog for 3 days and was good with communication and timeliness. College students' non-smoking house shared with her brother and another roommate. Has an unfenced pool in the backyard so only able to run in the yard if someone was outside with him. She took him for neighborhood walks. He seemed happy and well cared for when we picked him up.”

“Daniela was fantastic!! My little pup had another dog lunge at and bite him the morning we went to her so he was very sensitive. She was amazing (as was her whole family) with him. Gouda also loves their dog and was so happy there overnight. She provides so many updates which calmed my nerves. Thank you so much!”

17. Charlotte L.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my natural connection with dogs—they genuinely love me, and I love them right back. I pride myself on adapting to each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and cuddly. As a full-time college student, pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. Despite a busy schedule, I always prioritize my dog’s needs. Between classes, I make time to take her on walks, ensuring she gets the exercise and attention she deserves. She absolutely loves being outdoors, so I also let her play and explore in my fenced yard regularly, giving her plenty of fresh air and stimulation. I am always mindful of their safety, ensuring they have access to a secure area and checking in on any special needs or routines they have. Whether it’s sticking to nap times or offering extra cuddles, I treat every pet like family.
18. Kesson & Hiromi Y.
“They are extremely responsive, and very kind. Our dog loves it there. I think we’ve used them for 7-10 trips now. They also take really good pictures during our dog’s stay”
19. Maggie & Timothy B.
“We had not left our 4 year old Chocolate Lab for more than a couple days before, and planned a long vacation over Xmas. I can't say enough great things about Bodie's sitter! For not only offering to watch her over the holidays, but for taking Bodie out with his doggo and sending us photos and a recap daily. This gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Thank you and we will definitely be back for any upcoming trips :)”
20. Melissa F.
“Melissa was amazing! We boarded him with her. She was very responsive and gave lots of updates on how our kitty was doing while we were away. We were very thankful for the peace of mind!”
