“Merry Christmas Christine! I appreciate you and your family and your love for Luna so much, more than I can express! I hope that your Christmas Day and every day is filled with Love!”
“Jackie took care of our small dog and she wasn’t stressed at all when we picked her up! We were traveling in the Phoenix area seeing family and had to fly to Florida for a health crisis. It was reassuring to know Luna was well cared for”
“Brooke and her family are great! I received many pictures throughout my dogs stay and he came home very tired, which was awesome! He is a high energy dog and they played with him and walked him! I will definitely be using them again (:”
“I would recommend Ash in a heartbeat. My fur baby was well taken care of - Ash was great at communicating and responded quickly even with pictures. Even though we missed our fur baby so much - it was a relief knowing that she was in good hands.”
“Pamela was wonderful. She took such great care of Montana and kept me updated with daily texts and pictures. We've already booked her services again!”
“Marina did a great job with our Mishu. She has a very warm and kind personality, but is also the one in charge among the pack she’s caring for. She has a great, big backyard for all the pups to run around in and socialize. To provide updates, Marina sent several videos a day. I could see Mishu made many friends there!”
“Kelly is warm and genuine in her love for dogs! I was confident my dog would be safe, relaxed, and well-cared for in Kelly’s home. I picked up a happy dog and am pleased! Thank you Kelly for a terrific 1st boarding.”
“This was our second stay with Ezra and Reina and we can't rave enough about how great they are. Our wedding was in a different state and we left our two dogs in their care the entire week. The daily updates and videos gave us great peace of mind which was greatly appreciated since this was the longest we've ever been away from our pups. The love and care they provide the dogs in their care is unmatched, and we will continue booking with them!”
“Catherine was awesome! Finn and Mango had a good time hanging out together and it was so comforting to know he was happy. The daily pics were welcome and kept me feeling good about his comfort. Can’t thank Catherine, Alex, and Mango enough!”
“Zach and Maddie were the absolute best! From the moment I met them I knew my dog was in great hands. They are genuine dog lovers. I got lots of updates while I was away. It was such a relief being gone for a week and not having to worry about my dog. They even took him on a picnic! 10/10. Highly recommend.”
“Our two dogs had a great stay with Eric. He watched our 2 dogs for 15 days and I think they might have been reluctant to come home! He gave them all the care and attention they would have gotten at home and communicated with us through photos and updates while we were gone. He even took professional-like photos of them and sent those to us while we were gone. It was so unexpected and appreciated! We can't say enough good things about Eric!”
“She has taken care of Chapo twice already and has done a great job. Chapo always seems very happy in his photos and happy when we drop him off and happy when we pick him up. She has lovely pups of her own so your dog won’t be lonely <3”
“Mike took good care of our Chunky Boy! He was communicative, friendly, and flexible. I think Chunks especially enjoyed exploring the great outdoor space with lots of room to run and play fetch. Will definitely be using Mike’s services in the future! Thank you :)”
“If you are looking for someone who can take care of your pups for couple of days, I definitely recommend Rachel. She has been very accommodating and she has definitely gained our dog’s trust.”
“Couldn’t be happier we found Richard to care for our pup. He is quick to respond to messages, sends updates and pictures. Our girl was so excited to see us at the end of the stay, but made sure to show her appreciation to Richard as well. We could tell she felt at ease with him. Thank you Richard!”
“This was Aspen’s second time staying with Menaj and based on the adorable pictures and videos that were sent, I think she had a great time. When we arrived at Menaj’s house for drop off, Aspen immediately ran her front door and was whimpering to get in because she was so excited to be there. Aspen is excited to come back soon.”
“Our first time using a pet sitter for our 18 month old female GSD and the experience could not have been better, for us or our pup! Right from the meet and greet, Christian and Hana calmed any worries we had and left us with great confidence that our pup would be taken care of. Hana provided updates with photos throughout her stay, and we were able to enjoy ourselves knowing she was in great hands. We will definitely be using Christian and Hana again and are very grateful to have found them!”
About: Your dog will enjoy constant companionship, loving routines, and lots of affection throughout their stay, so you can fully relax and enjoy your getaway knowing they’re being cared for like one of our own. Dogs truly become part of our family life while they’re here! We work from home, so your pup is with us and around people, attention, and companionship all day long. We love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and do our best to keep their routine as close as possible to what they enjoy at home. A printed care sheet is always appreciated so we can provide the most personalized experience possible. One of the things our clients love most is that dogs are not left alone. Around the clock supervision is simply part of how we care for our guests. Whether your dog loves belly rubs, lounging nearby while we work, playing with friends, or simply being close to people, they will have plenty of love, attention, and interaction throughout the day. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, happy, loved, and completely at home from the moment they arrive until the moment you return. I want you to enjoy your time away with total peace of mind, knowing your pup is having a wonderful vacation of their own! 🐾❤️☀️ Your dog becomes part of my family life and is enjoys companionship throughout the day! During the summer months, routines are thoughtfully adjusted for Arizona heat and comfort. During the warmer parts of the day, dogs enjoy briefer shaded outdoor breaks, indoor relaxation, playtime, cuddles, and calm companionship. Walks are done only during cooler morning and evening hours, with shaded outdoor breaks during the day to avoid overheating and hot pavement. Fresh ice water, cool indoor spaces, and rest periods are always available. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my highest priority. I create a calm, supervised environment where dogs are carefully cared for as part of the family. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy level, routines, and comfort needs so they feel secure and settled while away from home. Whether your dog is playful, cuddly, social, or prefers a quieter environment, I create a safe and supportive experience that helps them relax and feel at ease. I also prioritize secure transitions in and out of the home, supervised outdoor time, and consistent communication so you can feel confident your dog is in loving, attentive hands throughout their stay.
“Radler had a great time being loved by Sergio & Bethany and their sweet family while we were out of town. The meet and greet was a wonderful way to put our mind at ease. We also received the cutest pictures letting us know Radler was happy and well taken care of.”

“John was great taking care of our two cats including doing an inhaler for one of them! He immediately connected with them when we gave him the keys and I could tell he enjoyed spending time with them on his visits as there were pictures of them playing with their favorite toys. Would definitely ask him to watch them again and recommend him!”
“Nancy was an absolute dream to work with!! She sent videos of our cat on every visit and went above and beyond to make sure she was cared for. When our flight plan changed, Nancy was able to tack on one more visit with our cat to ensure she was taken care of. Could not recommend Nancy enough!”
“Heather was so great with our lab Cali. Cali is shy with new people and she was very patient with that and very attentive to Cali. She brought us much peace of mind with having her come check on Cali during the day. Definitely would use her again!”
“Trisha was fantastic! We needed a cat sitter on very short notice due to flooding and construction issues in the bedroom of our apartment, and she was a lifesaver. She provided helpful updates, sent tons of cute photos, and took wonderful care of our cats. We recently moved out of range of our old sitter and have officially found our new favorite. Thank you so much Trisha, we can’t recommend you enough! 💞🐾”

About: Caring for animals is truly a joy for me. I love spending time with pets of all kinds and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I have over 4 years of experience taking care of both dogs and cats. You can trust that your pets will be safe, loved, and well looked after while in my care. I am currently in between jobs, so my schedule is completely open at this time until further notice. I prefer to take care of pets during the weekdays if possible, but weekends are open as well. I have four cats of my own, so I understand firsthand the love and care pets need every day. For that reason, I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure to follow your pet’s routine and give them the same love and attention I give my own.
“One more booking with Sara and she was impecable as always. Very attentive to details, reports the visit with detail, and always willing to help and to go above and beyond. 💖 Frida and I are so happy to count on her! Peace of mind during my trips!”
“We are a repeat of Heathers. She does a fantastic job with our grumpy cat. He can be intimidating and hiss but she is still so nice to him and treats him so well. Thank you heather!”
“Rae is a great communicator and always responds quickly. I know I don’t have to worry when Rae is taking care of my cat. I would recommend for the future. Thanks Rae!”
“We hired Candace for a week to house sit my cat. Candace checked in with me daily by sending me videos and pictures of my cat. She not only took care my cat she also spent quality play time with my cat during her stay. I had to ask her to stay one extra night because we missed our returning flight and it was no problem for her. I will definitely book with Candace again !!! Highly recommended”

I'll definitely be booking with them again”

Perfect for high energy dogs - South Scottsdale
“Our senior mutt, Roxie (11.5yrs) went to Will’s for the first time for daycare while we were moving. Walked right in when Michelle greeted her. The place is so well kept. When we picked her up, she was happy & content. We will definitely be taking her back here again. Thank you for the photos, also!”
“David is wonderful with Charlie. Charlie is very excited when she returns to visit there. I received several photographs throughout the day of Charlie having a great time she has met her pack with the other dogs in the house and fits in perfectly.”
“Charinee was fantastic caretaker of our puppies, while we were visiting the area. Pups had fun playing with Stacie too. Highly recommend the service!!”
“I just wanted to say that the care Jenifer has given to my dog Atlas has been unbelievable! She treats him like her own, and clearly has a way with animals. Atlas is pretty shy with people, and she has brought out a side of him that not many get to see. I appreciate all the photos and videos she sends, and I love how great she is at communicating. I feel so comfortable leaving Atlas with her, and I appreciate all that she does for us.”
“We had an excellent day care experience with Krista. She was very responsive, reliable and clearly loves dogs. It seemed like the day was scheduled around our dog. Lots of walks and even a jog. Will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Charlie was awesome with Baxter. He was really accommodating of my crazy schedule. Baxter came home played out, exercised and, most importantly, happy. Really appreciate it!”
About: Hi, we’re Zach and Maddie! We are true dog lovers! We both grew up with dogs our whole lives and have cared for many others through friends, family, and other clients. That means we’re comfortable with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, ages, personalities, and of course, their favorite scratch spots. We genuinely love being around dogs and miss having them in our daily lives — which is the reason we started Rover! Since we both live together and work from home, your dog gets double the care, attention, and supervision throughout the day — basically 2-for-1 pet care! We live in a spacious 2 bed, 2 bath apartment and are happy to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles, belly rubs, and attentive care based on your dog’s routine. We’re reliable, communicative, and always send updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away. We’ll treat your pet like our own and make sure they feel right at home. We both work from home, so pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. Pets staying with us get consistent attention, supervision, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. We’re available for boarding, walks, and drop-ins on both weekdays and weekends, with flexible scheduling. We keep a structured but relaxed routine to make sure your pet is comfortable and well cared for. We live in a clean, spacious 2 bed, 2 bath apartment and prioritize a safe, calm environment. Pets are always supervised, and we follow your routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific instructions. We’re happy to accommodate crate-trained dogs or well-behaved free-roaming pets. For walks and drop-ins, we’re reliable, attentive, and respectful of your home. We keep doors secured, use leashes at all times, and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable. You can expect regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Danielle and Kyle were so accommodating to my hectic day and change of plans. My dog has a lot of energy and they seemed to handle her just fine. My pupster was clearly worn out as she went straight to bed once we got home. That’s exactly what I’m looking for when it comes to a sitter and a day experience for her, somewhere where she will have another awesome dog to play with, kind (and command following hosts), and just an overall loving and welcome experience. Will definitely use them again! My pup was soooooo happy with her experience and so was I!”
“Five stars. Katherine did a fantastic job watching my rescue dog, Qi. I am impressed with Katherine’s professionalism and sensitivity. This was my first time leaving Qi with a sitter. I was nervous at first, but Katherine’s responsiveness put me at ease. Qi came home happy, and actually looked for her after drop off. Thank you for the wonderful service. I will trust my dog with you again!”
“Justin abs his wife were amazing! They made sure our second doggy day care experience was good and sent updates whenever we asked. I would recommend them to anyone in the area.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have always had them in my life. I currently have a sweet rescue pup who’s always by my side. Since I work from home and go on daily walks, we have plenty of time, space, and love to care for another dog—ideally a small breed. Your pet will be in a calm, cozy environment with lots of cuddles, routine, and gentle care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home, so I’m always around to provide attention, cuddles, and consistent care. I start the day with a morning walk, followed by regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of downtime. Evenings include another walk and lots of snuggles. Since my own dog is part of this routine, caring for another pet fits in seamlessly and joyfully. In my home, pets are treated like family. They’ll have a calm, safe environment with plenty of attention and affection. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest—just like they’re used to at home. I’m also happy to give updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Rachael was sweet and friendly. Very responsive to all messages. I was delayed dropping him off and she had no problems. She also sent me a video to show how the evening was going. She truly seems to care about dogs. Teddy really enjoyed his stay with her.”
About: I’ve had a Yorkie named Cooper since I was young and he currently lives with my parents back in Cleveland. I love dogs so much and I believe you should take care of dogs like you do your kids! I work fully remote, so I will be at home and play with the dogs all day! I will show them love and be able to feed them and take them to the bathroom whenever they need it! I also have a dog park at my apartment and a park in walking distance! I will play or walk the dogs whenever they need it, I love to exercise and move around! They will never not be shown love!
About: Hi there! My name is Eden, and dogs have been my whole world for years. 🐾 I’m an experienced trainer who also offers safe, structured, and loving boarding in my home. Because of the setup here, pups do need to be comfortable being in a kennel/crate at times. If your dog isn’t fully kennel trained yet (like a young puppy), that’s totally okay — I just ask that they can go into a kennel without any aggressive behavior so everyone stays safe. While your dog is staying with me, they’ll enjoy: ✨ A little bit of training and structure woven into their routine ✨ Learning manners and practicing calm behavior ✨ Daily enrichment and exercise ✨ Plenty of love, playtime, and cuddles ✨ Daily updates so you know how they’re doing My goal is to make boarding feel less stressful and more like a safe, structured staycation where your dog is cared for like family. I work from home training dogs and doing phone consultations, so I’m home the majority of the day with the pups. The only times I’m briefly away are for church on Sunday mornings (about 9:30–10:30) and the gym on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday mornings for about an hour. During those short times, all dogs are safely kenneled with fresh water, A/C, and cameras for monitoring, so they’re always safe and comfortable. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I have a secure fenced yard and kennel space in my house. Dogs staying with me do need to be comfortable being kenneled at times, or at least able to go into a kennel without aggression (puppies still learning are absolutely fine!). While boarding here, dogs enjoy structure, manners practice, daily enrichment, exercise, and lots of love — plus daily updates so you feel at ease while you’re away.
“Pamela takes such good care of my miniature schnauzer puppy! She takes her on walks every morning and has a big backyard for the pups to play in. Pamela is dependable and reliable!”
“Marina took great care of our puppy Boston for the day and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was communicative, attentive, and clearly very comfortable around dogs. Boston came home happy, tired, and well cared for — always a great sign. You can tell Marina genuinely enjoys spending time with the dogs she watches and gives them plenty of attention and activity. We really appreciated the peace of mind knowing Boston was in good hands. Would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend Marina to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
About: Your dog will be treated like family while staying in our home. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every dog in my care. One thing that sets my care apart is that I only accept one family's booking at a time. While I may care for multiple dogs from the same household, I do not mix dogs from different families. This allows me to provide more individualized attention, maintain a calm environment, and ensure your dog feels safe and comfortable during their stay. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs, including senior dogs and dogs requiring oral or injectable medications. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm place to relax, I tailor their stay to what makes them most comfortable. While we live in an apartment, your dog will receive multiple daily walks, exercise, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and make sure dogs in my care get the physical activity and enrichment they need. My son and I love spending time with dogs, and Rover has become a wonderful way for us to share that love while helping pet parents feel confident their pets are being cared for. Since we do not currently have pets of our own, visiting dogs receive lots of individualized attention during their stay. I know being away from your dog can be stressful, so I provide regular photo updates and communication throughout their visit. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. Before booking, I always encourage a meet-and-greet so we can make sure we're a great fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets in my care receive plenty of attention and are not left alone for extended periods. Dogs receive multiple daily walks and exercise tailored to their age, energy level, and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected to your pet while you're away. Because I only accept one family's pets at a time, I am able to focus on providing individualized care and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment for each guest. I only accept one family’s pets at a time, creating a calm, safe environment where each pet receives personalized attention, comfort, and loving care.

At one point has some concerns about My dog feeling sad and she came right away to look after him gave him lots of love for me. Overall she helped us so much and i can’t thank her enough!

About: Hello! My name is Kendall and I live in Tempe, Arizona. I have been petsitting for over 10+ years. Additionally, I was previously a kennel technician for a local veterinary hospital. I am comfortable with all breeds and have training in canine/feline CPR, administering medications and accommodating dietary needs. If you give me the chance to care for your fur baby, I will give your animal(s) the same care as I would my own. I have a ton of love to give! I’m currently a surgical technologist at a local hospital. I work 3, 12 hour shifts during the week (Monday-Friday). I do not work holidays or weekends. I am have been pet sitting for several years and have experience in veterinary health. I understand how to administer medications, accommodate to different dietary needs, and know how to care for a range of ages. I hope to hear from you and your pets soon! Thanks for your consideration, Kendall W
“Teresa has been absolutely wonderful with Stella, has walked her every day from 8 weeks to 6 months around lunch to help my husband and I with our work schedule. She provides clear communication and plenty of pictures and has been very flexible with our work schedules. My dog loves her! Would highly recommend her.”
About: Are your animals meeting their fitness goals? Over weight? I can fix that. Energetic? I can tire them out. Want to gain muscle? I can train em! At the moment I am free all day, everyday. Looking to keep this as a side job even when my work starts picking up. Available for dog walking and pet/house sitting I will not be housing other pets in my home. I can provide my services in a location nearby your house or I can take your pet to the park.
About: I’m a mom of two wonderful kids (14 and 11) and a lifelong dog lover. Animals have always been a huge part of our home and our hearts. My kids are absolutely obsessed with dogs. They grew up with ours and were with them from the time they were born. Over the last few years, we had to say goodbye to both of our pups, and while we’re not quite ready for another full-time dog, we would truly love to love on yours. We’ve fostered dogs and dog-sat for friends and family, so we’re comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Your dog won’t just be “watched” here, they’ll be treated like they’re ours. Lots of attention, playtime, cuddles, and being part of the family. I’m patient, dependable, and really good at picking up on a dog’s personality whether they’re high-energy, shy, goofy, or need a little extra reassurance. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I take that seriously. Communication is important to me, so you’ll always get regular updates and photos while you’re away. From dog walking and drop-ins to overnight stays and boarding, I can do it all. What sets us apart is that this isn’t just a job for us. It’s something we genuinely enjoy. We don’t currently have any pets, so your pup gets our full attention and is truly part of our home while they’re here. My goal is simple: a happy, loved pup and total peace of mind for you. I recently wrapped up a long-term teaching position and currently work part-time in photography and hair, which gives me a flexible schedule. My days are typically open for walks, drop-ins, and boarding needs, and I’m able to build my routine around the pets in my care. Even as my schedule evolves, I’m intentional about only accepting bookings I can fully commit to. I don’t overbook, and I make sure every pet receives consistent attention and care while they’re with me. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it’s something I genuinely enjoy, not just something I squeeze in. When pets stay in our home, they’re treated like part of the family. We follow your feeding schedule, walk routine, and any specific instructions so your dog feels comfortable and at ease. There’s always plenty of attention, playtime, and downtime depending on their personality and energy level. Dogs are welcome on the couch and even in our bed if that’s what they’re used to and you’re comfortable with it. We never crate-trained our own dogs, but I’m absolutely happy to crate if that’s part of your dog’s normal routine. I want them to feel safe and cared for in whatever way they’re accustomed to. Our backyard is turf and pavers, fully fenced, with a gated section that keeps dogs safely separated from the pool area. Outdoor time is always supervised, and dogs are let out regularly throughout the day for potty breaks and fresh air. Walks and playtime are built into the day based on your pup’s needs. Overall, my goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your dog feels secure, comfortable, and truly at home.
About: I’ve had a dog most of the first 17 years of my life. My friends ask me to care for their dogs while they’re on vacation or traveling. I bathe dogs as needed, and take them for walks twice a day. I give them lots of love. Dogs really like me. I work from home, but occasionally step away for appointments. I prefer crate trained dogs for while I’m away but always reward them with treats when I get home! I have a comfy place. I take the dogs out for walks at least twice a day, often 3 or more times. And I make sure they have great care, anffection and attention! I have a comfortable home, yet do most of the dog walking in the grass near my condo, or with the permission of the owner, a dog park nearby.

“Marina did a great job with our Mishu. She has a very warm and kind personality, but is also the one in charge among the pack she’s caring for. She has a great, big backyard for all the pups to run around in and socialize. To provide updates, Marina sent several videos a day. I could see Mishu made many friends there!”
“This was our second stay with Ezra and Reina and we can't rave enough about how great they are. Our wedding was in a different state and we left our two dogs in their care the entire week. The daily updates and videos gave us great peace of mind which was greatly appreciated since this was the longest we've ever been away from our pups. The love and care they provide the dogs in their care is unmatched, and we will continue booking with them!”
“Zach and Maddie were the absolute best! From the moment I met them I knew my dog was in great hands. They are genuine dog lovers. I got lots of updates while I was away. It was such a relief being gone for a week and not having to worry about my dog. They even took him on a picnic! 10/10. Highly recommend.”
“Our two dogs had a great stay with Eric. He watched our 2 dogs for 15 days and I think they might have been reluctant to come home! He gave them all the care and attention they would have gotten at home and communicated with us through photos and updates while we were gone. He even took professional-like photos of them and sent those to us while we were gone. It was so unexpected and appreciated! We can't say enough good things about Eric!”
“Our first time using a pet sitter for our 18 month old female GSD and the experience could not have been better, for us or our pup! Right from the meet and greet, Christian and Hana calmed any worries we had and left us with great confidence that our pup would be taken care of. Hana provided updates with photos throughout her stay, and we were able to enjoy ourselves knowing she was in great hands. We will definitely be using Christian and Hana again and are very grateful to have found them!”
About: Your dog will enjoy constant companionship, loving routines, and lots of affection throughout their stay, so you can fully relax and enjoy your getaway knowing they’re being cared for like one of our own. Dogs truly become part of our family life while they’re here! We work from home, so your pup is with us and around people, attention, and companionship all day long. We love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and do our best to keep their routine as close as possible to what they enjoy at home. A printed care sheet is always appreciated so we can provide the most personalized experience possible. One of the things our clients love most is that dogs are not left alone. Around the clock supervision is simply part of how we care for our guests. Whether your dog loves belly rubs, lounging nearby while we work, playing with friends, or simply being close to people, they will have plenty of love, attention, and interaction throughout the day. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, happy, loved, and completely at home from the moment they arrive until the moment you return. I want you to enjoy your time away with total peace of mind, knowing your pup is having a wonderful vacation of their own! 🐾❤️☀️ Your dog becomes part of my family life and is enjoys companionship throughout the day! During the summer months, routines are thoughtfully adjusted for Arizona heat and comfort. During the warmer parts of the day, dogs enjoy briefer shaded outdoor breaks, indoor relaxation, playtime, cuddles, and calm companionship. Walks are done only during cooler morning and evening hours, with shaded outdoor breaks during the day to avoid overheating and hot pavement. Fresh ice water, cool indoor spaces, and rest periods are always available. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my highest priority. I create a calm, supervised environment where dogs are carefully cared for as part of the family. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy level, routines, and comfort needs so they feel secure and settled while away from home. Whether your dog is playful, cuddly, social, or prefers a quieter environment, I create a safe and supportive experience that helps them relax and feel at ease. I also prioritize secure transitions in and out of the home, supervised outdoor time, and consistent communication so you can feel confident your dog is in loving, attentive hands throughout their stay.

I knew she was in good hands, but I especially appreciated the photo and video updates while I was away. Seeing how happy and well cared for she was gave me a great deal of peace of mind. I would absolutely book with Mitchell again without hesitation!”
“Spoiled, spoiled, spoiled. That’s what they did with our Kayla, the family bonded with our Kayla like she was part of their family. It’s really hard finding people that treat your babies like you do !!! Jaclyn and William and their children are so sweet if there was 10 times over stars I would give them hundreds. My girl is a pitty mix it’s hard to explain that she’s a sweet girl, but the family took right to her. Thank you for loving our Kayla like your own..”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Outstanding Dog Sitter! We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog, Lexi, received while we were out of the country for 10 days. Kaitlin sent updates and photos and made sure she felt loved and comfortable the entire time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. When we returned, Lexi was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for.”
