“She was great with my new rescues and the dogs seemed very well taken care of.”

Joshua M.

“We had a wonderful experience! They were incredibly kind, communicative, and kept us updated throughout the day with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our puppy looked like he was having an absolute blast and came home happily exhausted from all the fun. It was clear he was well cared for and enjoyed spending time with them and Evan. We would absolutely book with them again in the future. Thank you both (and thank you, Evan!) for taking such great care of our pup!”

Amy C.

“Booked Thavery for 8 day boarding. She sent photos and updates of Harold on a daily basis. I felt at ease while Harold was in her care; she walks several times a day. And he likes hanging out with her Dexter, good company. I highly recommend!”

“Communicated great and super sweet! Would definitely book again.”

“I'm happy to share my experience with Bennie and Jennie who took care of my baby Nori while I was away. Right from the start, their professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals shone through. They took note of her routines, preferences, and her diet which showed me that they provided care that felt personalized and attentive. They also kept me updated daily with pictures/videos of Nori's activities. Each update was sent with a short note, highlighting her mood, changes in appetite, and the ways she was interacting. Moreover, they won over her trust and it was clear that Nori formed a bond with them and their adorable kitten, Kevin! For any cat owner looking for peace of mind, I can't recommend Bennie and Jennie enough!”

“Connie cares for my little senior spaniel, Zoe, like a member of her own family. I can’t say enough about the peace of mind I have knowing that Zoe is in such good hands.”

Jennifer L.

“Maria is such a caring and kind person. Always updating me regarding the health and safety of my puppy. She treated Akira as her family and made sure she was comfortable. She respected my instructions and politely asked if she can help with training or other activities. I would definitely recommend her and most definitely rebook in the future.”

“Chungin accommodated us for a very last minute booking and took such wonderful care of Bailey. She sent us updates and photos throughout the day and helped put our mind at ease. Looking forward to booking again!”

“This is the first time we have had a pet sitter take care of Ralph. Charlene and her family are the best! They sent me pictures of Ralph every day. They made me feel at ease. Ralph seems to like them too. I would like to ask for her help again! Thank you very much!!”

“Jesslyn was so great with our 8 year old dog, Bubba. He came back happy and relaxed. She was great about sending pictures and updates. We have already booked with her again for an upcoming trip. I highly recommend Jesslyn!”

Shama M.

“Great experience! The sitter was kind, reliable, and very attentive to my dog’s needs. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend her service and will definitely book again!”

About: I have grown up my whole life with dogs, and I am very comfortable around all types. I have volunteered at the Dane County Humane Society as an Adoption Counselor while in college, so I have undergone behavior training for many aspects of dog care. I am familiar with walking dogs on leases, with harnesses, using commands, as well as resource guarding, jumpy/mouthy/mounting behavior, shy/fearfulness, and escape artists. I only use positive reinforcement for training. I have an educational background in genetics and public health, and I am involved in my local religious community as well. I’ve lived in OC for about 3 years now, having moved from the Midwest. In my spare time I’m learning to crochet, and I love playing with my dog Pax, a chihuahua/pomeranian mix whom I’ve recently adopted. I work from home, so am around most of the day, and have a small fenced in patio for potty breaks between walks. I’m a fan of the local dog parks, and will bring your dog there with your permission. I work from home, so my dog gets a minimum of 3 walks around the neighborhood and we often go to a local dog park too after work. I’m rarely away from home for more than 4 hours at a time. My fenced in patio is open for potty breaks, but I usually do a minimum of 3 walks per day around my neighborhood. I’m also happy to bring them to dog parks for socialization. Since I have a dog myself, there will also be plenty of socialization at home.

“Doug took wonderful care of Bowey! Bowey had a great time and he even got to meet some furry friends while he’s there. Doug was super responsive and the process from booking to pickup was a breeze. We will definitely book with him again, thank you!”

About: Hi, I’m Emily! We are a loving family of four, my husband, our 10-year-old son, myself, and our very active 13-month-old Shiba Inu, Nala. As dog owners ourselves, we know firsthand how stressful it can be to find someone you truly trust to care for your dog while you’re away. After recently searching for a sitter for Nala, I realized how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like family, because that’s exactly what they are. My goal is to provide you with peace of mind, knowing your dog will be safe, loved, and cared for in our home as if they were my own. After spending 25+ years in the telecom industry, I am now a stay-at-home mom, which gives me the time and flexibility to provide attentive, personalized care for the pets I welcome into our home. Your furry family member will receive plenty of attention, companionship, supervision, and love throughout the day, with their safety, comfort, and happiness always being my top priorities. We are located in a quiet, safe neighborhood in Irvine with several nearby parks and walking trails. Nala enjoys four walks a day, and I am happy to provide the same level of activity for your pup based on their needs, energy level, and routine. We also have a spacious home with a secure, fenced grassy backyard that offers both sunny and shaded areas for dogs to relax, explore, bird watch, or simply enjoy outdoor time. I understand every dog has different routines and comfort levels, so I do my best to make their stay feel as close to home as possible. Nala sleeps in a crate at night, but I am happy to accommodate your dog’s normal sleeping arrangements, whether that’s a crate, dog bed, or out in the open. We treat pets like family in our home, so dogs are welcome on the couch, bed, and in the spaces they’re used to enjoying if that aligns with your preferences and home rules. I am also happy to follow your dog’s specific care routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, sleep preferences, and any special instructions that help them feel comfortable and secure. I know being away from your pup can be hard, so I’m happy to send regular photo and update check-ins to help you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. To ensure personalized attention and a calm environment, I only host one guest dog at a time, so your pup receives lots of one-on-one love and care while staying with us. I do ask that dogs are comfortable around children and other dogs, and are reasonably house-trained and comfortable spending short periods indoors when needed. I want you to feel completely comfortable leaving your furry family member in my care, and I am happy to answer any questions you may have before booking. I look forward to welcoming your pup into our home and treating them like part of the family!

“Wesley Archer enjoyed his visit & stay with Nicole! Having the opportunity to meet and play with other dogs at the doggie daycare was super helpful and a bonus for playtime and socialization. He looks forward to the next time he may get to go for another visit! Thank you”

“Grace is an amazing pet mom. She treated Ollie so well he was a bit disappointed I picked him up. She sent pictures throughout the day and kept me updated about their activities. He had a few outings and was well exercised by the time I got him. Grace was also very accommodating when my work event ran over and I picked up Ollie a few hours later than expected”

“Ryan and his wife helped us out with a last minute booking. They were so accommodating and wonderful with our 2 pups. We received lots of photos, and knew they were in great hands the whole weekend.”

Jaclyn D.

“He lives in a great community with plenty of open spaces, parks, and trails. My dog looks very happy with him. He fed, walked, and played with my dog. He also sent me photos and videos how he took care of my dog. He is a dog lover and great carer.”
