About: I am Deaf and rely on ASL to communicate. I am an expert at reading body language both in people & animals. I've grown up with many different animals, mostly dogs. I had my own dog starting at age 8. I've taken care of dogs personally and professionally since then. I'd go dogsit neighbors' dogs at their houses and have family/friends' dogs at my house.

We enjoy going on walks early in the morning and after dinner, so we will bring your dog along! I work from home, so my schedule is flexible. I will adjust my schedule to fit your pup's routine! Either my partner, Alex, and I or both are always home so the dogs are almost never on their own. I can bring my work with me wherever the dogs are, inside & outside. I have a fenced backyard, baby gates throughout the house, a storm door on the front door, several crates (medium & large), and a quiet & safe room upstairs if your pup needs some space. I have a lot of dog toys all around the house, blankets, treats, outdoor activities, etc to help your pup feel safe and comfortable here. I care for many anxious & nervous dogs, so I am well aware of their body language and know exactly what it is they need. If you ask my previous clients, they'd tell you that their anxious dogs warm up to me pretty quickly!

Without hesitation we plan on bringing him back for our next vacation. Thank you Tara!”

Carol is very experienced taking care of dogs and has an excellent setup in her backyard where she has separate fenced in areas where she can either let your dog play with her two cute French bulldogs, or give them time alone.

I have some experience caring for cats, including my sisters' and friends' cats (5+ years). I am very active and can exercise or entertain your pet with play or runs. I have rarley met a dog that I wasn't able to build trust with. I am a graduate student whose internship starts on the 27th of July. So I have complete availability then. Outside of that, I am typically free after 5 pm on weekdays and completely free on weekends. I ensure to follow all the rules the pet owner has established. I will use commands and language the dog is familiar with to avoid confusion. I make sure the pets are exercised 2-3 times a day. Cleaned and brushed if needed. I am mindful of water intake and make sure that all pets are kept on their usual schedule.

“Atiana gave amazing care to our puppy. She went beyond expectations and our puppy felt so comfortable and had alot of fun. Would definitely book again! Thanks so much for the attention care and updates!”

“Michelle is AMAZING! She gave Rebel love and care as if her were her own. She sent daily pictures of their walks, and play time. I highly recommend considering Michelle for your pet-sitting needs. She definitely exceeded our expectations.”

“Elizabeth did such a wonderful job taking care of our pup this past weekend while we were away for my birthday. Our pup Nala hasn’t been to a sitter 6 months, and was having a hard time adjusting to being in a new environment away from us, but Elizabeth reassured us that she was being showered with love and that gave us tons of peace of mind! She sent lots of photos throughout the duration of Nala’s stay who grew very close to Elizabeth and found a great sense of comfort in her! We’re grateful to Elizabeth for deeply caring for our pup and keeping us in the loop, and would recommend her to anyone we know! Thanks again!”

“Wonderful experience. Lara is great at communicating--sent regular photos and videos of Buddy having a blast with his new friends. Her place is amazing with lots of room for the dogs and it is clear she takes great care of the dogs. Highly recommend!”

“Andreah was a pleasure to work with. She was very responsive during the booking process and most importantly she took great care of our dog. While Rocco was staying with her she kept us up to date on how he was doing with frequent messages and photos. We have already booked her again for a longer stay. Highly recommended.”

“Reggie loves being with Michelle, JD & Nanook. They provide a warm and welcoming environment, great interaction & sometimes other poo hes and people for Reggie to enjoy with them. They send updates & great photos to me, which makes it easier for me when I need to use a sitter. Very much appreciated!”

“Kaitlin is an amazing sitter, was in peace leaving my puppy for a weekend with her. Would highly recommend and would definitely book again. She knows how to take care of animals and its shows that she loves doing it with her husband and 2 own dogs.”

“Elizabeth was an amazing sitter! I had a last minute trip, and the dates and times changed multiple times. I needed to drop Lulu off extremely early and had delays in getting back and Elizabeth was super flexible the entire time. I very much recommend!”

“Antonio took great care of our pup. He was very easy to communicate with and provided updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos. We would definitely use him again to watch our pup and recommend him.”

“Leslie was really great with my 2 fur babies. They were well taken care of and loved on. She did a great job sending me updates with very cute pictures! If I need a dog sitter I will definitely be booking her again!”

“Luna loves staying with Christie and Daniel. She has so much fun playing with all the dogs and playing fetch! And we love knowing that our Luna is safe and well cared for while we are gone!”

“I’ve booked with this family twice and my baby loves them. When I drop him off he just forgets I exist lol. I’m always nervous about leaving JB with someone because he is a mouthy boy with personality. He fits right in and causes chaos. Your baby will be well taken care of with Seth and Connie.”

“We could not have had a better first experience with leaving our pup with a sitter. Sara & her kids were fantastic! Sara sent periodic updates and photos and I got the impression that peach was not only well taken care of but also well loved. We would definitely recommend Sara and will absolutely use her again on the future!”

“My dog Kora loves staying with Courtney and her family - she comes back rejuvenated and happy. Courtney is always top on my list for boarding. Great communication, flexibility, and very caring. 10/10.”

“Gail is awesome!! My 13 yr old pup needed a vet visit and meds under her care and she was right on top of it. She took great care of him! Gail is my new go-to dog sitter!”

“She was so fantastic and Korra seemed to have a great time while I was gone! ? she responded very fast when I asked about Korra and when I booked her for the stay. Highly recommend!”

“Patricia and JR came through for us at the last minute when our original boarding plans fell through. They were so accommodating and understanding on short notice and we could tell the pups had so much fun as they were out like a light when they got home. We are so grateful for their time and for allowing our pups to stay at their beautiful home. Thank you again!”

“Lauren and her dog Millie were great hosts to our dog! Lauren is an excellent communicator and an experienced pro asking great details about our dog and the individual care she needs. They made our dog feel at home, even allowing our dog to take Millie’s bed. Our dog had daily walks and we received videos and photos a few times a day, which was great. Would highly recommend Lauren and Millie as a sitter and we will definitely be requesting them again! Thank you Lauren and Millie!!”
