Kal cried when my son picked him up,.. Kal wants to stay with his new friend dog. Thank you Ms Clara will see you again.”

“Stacy is the absolute best! My dog Bailey had a great time while staying at Stacy’s house. Stacy was perfectly accommodating and made easy and very smooth for Bailey’s first test run being boarded. I got lots of updates and photos throughout Bailey’s stay. I’ll tell everyone I know to use Stacy in the future!”

“We had an amazing experience with Priscilla and Pascual! They took excellent care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the entire stay with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. We came home to a very happy pup! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with them again!”

“I am so happy and blessed to have met Agueda. She took care of Chewy like her very own and Chewy was so happy. She kept me updated on his walks and play. Thank you so much Agueda!!”

About: What Sets Me Apart What truly sets my care apart is the structured, high-attention supervision I provide. Because I work from home and have my family assisting me, your pet will enjoy true 24/7 care and companionship. A human is always present, meaning frequent potty breaks and constant supervision. I maintain a strict one-guest-family policy so your pet receives our undivided love and focus alongside my friendly Frenchie, Kona. Special Skills & Experience Puppy Care & Routine: I excel at maintaining strict house-training schedules, reinforcing basic manners, and safely managing puppy energy. Rescued & Sensitive Cat Care: I have hands-on experience caring for a rescued stray cat. This taught me how to read feline body language, use patience to build trust, and provide a quiet, separate safe zone where they feel secure. Detail-Oriented: I strictly follow precise feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, and behavioral instructions to the letter. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life because I work from home and have a highly flexible schedule. My routine is built around structure, consistency, and plenty of attention. 24/7 Supervision: Because I am home throughout the day and have family assisting me, guest pets are never left unattended. Your pet will enjoy constant companionship, a human presence, and a calm, reliable routine. Frequent Potty Breaks & Play: My flexible day allows me to easily accommodate frequent potty breaks (every 2 to 3 hours, or more often for puppies) and dedicated indoor playtime. Structured Feeding & Walks: Meals are served strictly on your preferred schedule. Walks are integrated naturally into my morning and cooler evening routines, ensuring dogs stay active without ever overheating. Because my schedule revolves around being home, your pet will step right into a safe, well-supervised environment where their normal routine is completely maintained. Because I work from home and have family support, your pet will enjoy continuous 24/7 supervision, separate safe zones for cats, structured individual feeding to prevent tension, frequent potty breaks, and daily photo updates following your exact routine.
“Cristina was amazing with our boys! Very responsive, sent lots of pictures, and spoiled them all week! Will absolutely be using Cristina again in the future! Highly recommend!”

“Sam is awesome, very kind and accommodating. She took wonderful care of our little senior dog and provided her plenty of attention and love. She maintained great communication and kept us informed of our dog's status throughout the stay while also sending plenty of pictures. Sam is a treasure and will definitely book again with her!”

“Jessica is amazing! She was quick to respond to our request and took amazing care of our dogs. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing they were in good hands. She sent us updates and pictures throughout the stay.”

“Araceli is fantastic. My dogs love being with her. She is always so responsive and she let me drop off the dogs two hours earlier than I initially asked for which was really helpful due to travel plans changing.”

“Miss. Teresa was amazing! Was available for a last minute booking. Sent me updates about my pups throughout the day! Is definitely my new go-to! My pups had a great time with her.”

“Kaitlin and Verle took great care of our little Remy. They were very understanding of his special needs (he’s an anxious and dog-reactive pup), and their home provided a safe, calm space for him.”

“Monique (and her family) watched my senior kitty with chronic kidney disease. I was very concerned about him using the bathroom and being comfortable since it’s the first time I boarded him anywhere. She was incredibly helpful and did a meet & greet with us to see how he would do. We discussed the best set-up for him ahead of time and she really put my worries at ease. She sent me plenty of updates about his situation and pictures of him. He warmed up to them way quicker than I thought he would! He was incredibly comfortable with them after about a day. They really treated him like he was a part of the family!”

“Absolutely pleased with Kimberly and her watching my boys. She made me feel at ease that they were in good hands and they were. She kept, me informed and provided regular updates and pictures of Samsom and Thor.. Highly recommend her to anyone looking to leave their pets.”


“Alan is the BEST EVER!! We are repeat customers. Our guy, Tubby, always loves to visit Alan. Alan is very kind, attentive, caring, and friendly. He LOVES animals and his job. Our family always feels at peace when Tubby is being sat by Alan. Alan, gives Tubby plenty of walks and playtime. His home is very spacious, cozy, and clean. Tubby always comes home looking clean, well-kept, and happy :)”

About: I’ve lived and cared for animals since I was young. My dad is a veterinarian, so I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs, cats, and other animals my whole life! I had my dog for 15 beautiful years and went through all the ups and downs of a dog parent. I administered her medication and provided as many accommodations and love she needed. Currently, I have one medium haired cat who is shy but incredibly sweet and friendly. I’ve had him since he was a kitten and has adjusted to our own little routine. I know how difficult it can be to leave a furry friend behind, so I’m here to relieve any stress you may have and provide as much comfort and care to your loved one! I currently work part-time so I have a flexible schedule. I’m a grad student, so if I’m not at work or class, I’m usually home hanging out with my cat :) My cat is very low maintenance and is used to dogs but if you prefer for him to be separated from your furry friend I can definitely make sure they are in different rooms! My apartment is pet friendly and has a grass area right upfront as well as a fenced yard they can go out to!
“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”

“Brandee is the absolute best! She replied to my booking so fast. Eventhough she wasn't available for the entire booking, she actively searched for friends who could help. Other sitters just turned down the request, or didn't reply. We agreed on some days that would work. The request was to care for tiny, sick, shelter kittens. The job was not easy, it involved an application to the animal shelter, wearing full protective gear, coordinating with the foster coordinator, and then caring for sick kittens. She handled it like a pro! She found her way in and worked with the kittens and even sent pictures. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

“Clara is a kind and accommodating cat sitter. She sent pictures of Kal interacting with her dog that makes Kal peacefully, ,comfortable and happy finding companion with her dog. Kal cried when my son picked him up,.. Kal wants to stay with his new friend dog. Thank you Ms Clara will see you again.”

About: Although I have no official skills and training...yet, but I grew up caring for animals. For 18 years I lived on a small farm in Michigan where we raised chickens, rabbits, goats, alpacas, dogs, and cats. These animals were my beloved pets and would get shown at the county fair every summer. Since moving away I have accumulated three cats of my own. As I continue to figure things out and gain experience I can promise that all pets under my care will be well cared for, loved, and that all owners will receive top notch communication. I have just separated from the Navy and am unable to get another job due to some traveling I have planned over the next couple months. I am free all day pretty much any day! I do not offer sitting or boarding in my home due to my cats not appreciating outsiders, but I am more than happy to go to your house and do whatever is needed!
“Jovi is truly one of a kind. She consistently goes above and beyond every single time she watches my cats. Not only does she take incredible care of them (they absolutely love her) but she also leaves my home spotless, even cleaner than I left it 😭 You can tell she genuinely cares, not just about the pets but about creating a safe environment. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re with someone who treats them like her own. At this point, she’s not just a cat sitter she’s part of our family. I couldn’t recommend her more 💖”

About: Whether it’s scooping poop or chasing squirrels I’m there with the extra care. With a dog and cat of my own I know they deserve the world and more. Additionally the time I spent working at a dog kennel helped me to realize giving dogs the love they deserve is truly something special. When it comes to extra play and extra pats, trust that their paws are in good hands. I am currently on winter break for college and am available whenever needed. You say when and I’ll be there making sure your pet is happy and safe. I keep my dog indoors typically but my house has a doggy door for easy access to the backyard when needed. It is safely enclosed with sturdy fence so they can get their outside time while staying safe. Additionally human food is put away at all times and all house materials including plants are pet friendly.

About: I’ve taken care of my cat Yuki for almost 3 years now! I’ve had him since he was a kitten and have loved him more each day! I understand the importance of patience and respecting boundaries when it comes to cats, so I’ll make sure to adapt to your cat’s style! I’ve looked after my brother’s cat since she was a kitten as well, and have taken care of other multiple feline friends over the years. Whether it’s offering them a snack, playtime, a snuggle, or their space, I’m here to help!

About: Welcome to my page! I like to show kitties my love by making them feel at ease and trusting me to have a more positive experience all around. I have taken care of cats belonging to family members and neighbors, and it's always a great experience even with the shy fur babies.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have enjoyed caring for pets my whole life. I had my sweet girl Stella, a pug, for 13 years. I crate, potty, and recall trained her as a puppy, fed her a balanced diet of vitamins and homemade food throughout her life, and gave her loving, gentle care in her senior hospice years. I’ve also cared for my mom’s boxer for a year and even taught her, her favorite trick… tossing a treat up with her nose and catching it! I’ve looked after my friends’ pets as well, including cats, kittens, dogs, puppies, senior dogs, birds (parrot), a chameleon, and special mentioned of a disabled Frenchie who needed a little extra help to go potty. I make friends with any neighborhood kitties when they let me. Usually just takes a bit of chicken or turkey. Lol I have a pretty flexible schedule, so I can work around almost any animals needs. I work Amazon Flex so I set my own hours and only do 1-2 hr shifts (sometimes multiple times a day). If I leave the house, I am gone for a max of 3-4 hrs or less depending on where I’m delivering to. I’m patient, attentive, and dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and understand that giving their family peace of mind makes leaving them just a little bit easier.
“Stacy is absolutely wonderful every time we have her care for our cats! She sends the sweetest updates and photos and spends extra time playing with them to ensure they get lots of love while we’re out of town. Our cats love getting to see her!”

“Kim did an excellent job taking care of Stella. She is confident around dogs and bonded quickly with Stella. She sent me pics and also cleaned up after Stella's outings. Will definitely be calling Kim again!”


“I went through a personal emergency, and Elizabeth responded very quickly. She is very kind and great with pets, you can tell she really loves animals & will take care of them as if they are her own. :) she went above and beyond, and would keep me updated constantly. She would even send me pictures which I really appreciated. I recommend booking with her 100%!! Elizabeth is great!!!💖”

About: The Kind of Care I'd Want for My Own Pup/Kitty Dogs have been a part of my life for over 20+ years, and caring for them has always come naturally. I grew up with cats and dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets as well as sitting and walking dogs for friends and family. I currently have a 6-year-old Belgian Malinois named Nova, so I'm very familiar with high-energy breeds that need both physical exercise and mental stimulation.

Whether your pup/kitty loves adventure or prefers a slower pace, I'll tailor their care to fit their personality and routine.

I'm available weekends and weekdays for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks in the comfort of your home. Just message me to arrange! I'll treat your pup/kitty with the same love, attention, and care I give my own. When caring for your pup/kitty in your home, my priority is making sure you and your pup/kitty feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by maintaining their normal routine. I'll follow all of your care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special preferences or restrictions. I always treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping it clean, secure, and leaving it just as I found it. I'll also provide lots of updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup/kittie is happy and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet by providing dependable, attentive, and loving care every visit.

“Priscilla was amazing! Ollie had a great time and it was good knowing he was well taken care in their home. Def recommend! They have ample amount of space in their backyard for zoomies!”

“Stacy always takes amazing care of our French Bulldog, Koa. He always comes home tired but so happy after spending time with her Auntie Stacy!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a little girl. I have always had dogs around me. When I was a teen, I started dog sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. This is something my dad and I would do together. As an adult, I am my friends’ and family’s go to person when it comes to help them with their pets. They will always call me when they go on vacations and need help. I am looking forward to expand my network of people I can help 🙂. Bonus is my own sweet little lady, Olive, who loves all dogs! She would be so happy to have new friends! I work from home part time. I am always home, and only go in and out to get my son from school. I walk my dog four times per day. Two of these four times per day are longer walks in the neighborhood or to the park. I keep dogs on the leash at all time when we are outside. I have a fenced backyard where they can be outside and lay in the sun, and can’t escape. They also have access to water and food as required by the owner. My dog Olive is super friendly, and loves being around other dogs. She is around 15 lbs. I have a cat who is friendly but does not want to do much with other dogs. He mostly stays away.
“I recommend Lori as a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! My dog is strong and energetic, and Lori knew how to manage him, and was very kind and patient. She gave him lots of needed attention and kept me updated. I appreciate Lori so much for making me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands!”

“John is the best dog sitter I've had! He is reliable, and you can tell how much he loves dogs. My puppy, Lincoln, loves spending time with John! Lincoln gets so excited whenever I drop him off at John's before work. I fully trust that Lincoln is taken care of and getting lots of love and exercise during my long work days. I wouldn't want anyone else watching Lincoln!”

“Rebecca is INCREDIBLE!! She was attentive to my dog, and gave her so much playtime and attention, hikes, park walks, fetch, hammock time, and so much more! She’s the best!”

“My dog Nyla is in such good care with Maria! Maria updates me on all the adventures my dog has through the day. I would highly recommend her to care for your pet. We are a recurring client. :)”

About: I've loved and have taken care of dogs my whole life. I'm naturally curious about them and believe there is no such thing as a bad dog. I am working toward becoming a canine trainer and am currently under apprenticeship. Caring for dogs is very rewarding for me and a true passion of mine. My friends and family have sought me out for advice and to care for their pets and I would love the opportunity to care for yours as well. I have a flexible work schedule and am available for boarding 7 nights per week and for sitting every day. I can also pick up and drop off for an additional fee. I have a large fenced back yard (about 1/8 of an acre), with mixed concrete, dirt with shade. Your pup will be able to play inside and out, and will find it hard not to get along with my 8 year old Labradoodle, Maui.

About: Life long dog owner. Over forty years of experience with large active breeds. From rescue to training giving fur babies an active fun day. I currently have three well behaved German Shepherds that go on long daily walks on a leash or running free at dog beaches and hikes out in the open fields in Otay lakes. I have a large kennel and a back yard with plenty of room for a comfortable stay. I’m currently retired and have plenty of time to have fun with my dogs getting in different adventures daily. We enjoy long hikes to lakes or ponds and frequently go swimming at OB dog beach and fiesta island. Now that I’m retired I would like to dedicate myself to dog training. I have a fenced yard half the yard is a kennel but the kennel stays open for full yard to roam. My pups are usually following me around the house all day so I try to keep them active with training and hikes or long walks. For smaller indoor dogs I will provide a comfortable environment indoors with their own separate kennel to sleep in at night making sure they are pampered and spoiled. My dogs are very gentle and friendly and socialized around different size dogs their whole lives. They also have their own area that they like and stay in that can be secured for added safety.

About: I have my own dog, and have had him since he was 4 months old, so I know what goes into keeping a dog happy and stimulated. My dog is my child and my life revolves around him. I currently work part time and also have a 3 year old dog. I still currently have a lot of free time and am looking to do something I love, with that time. My dog, Bandit, is my child. He is a completely indoor dog who has free range of the house and furniture. He is one of the family. I take him to the dog beach or dog park every single day.
“This was my first time to use Rover and from the very beginning I was so happy with Priscilla and Mike. Fiona took to Mike right away and seemed to want to be his bestie! I've now found my dog sitter for any future trips or needs. Both are such nice people and help rescue dogs in need. I wish them success and will definitely use them again.”

“Daisy was awesome! I had requested a booking with less than 48 hours of notice and she was so on top of responding and also willing, even offering to come by the same day to meet Arya which gave me a really good feeling. I always like to set up meet and greets if possible to allow Arya to be comfortable with a new person. She was very nice and sent multiple photos during her time with Arya. I will definitely rebook next time I need a walker!”

“Elizabeth is great. Jellybean loves his walks and she is always punctual , and so happy to see him. She is a great addition to a routine which is crazy busy and helps our family immensely. I recommend her . Jellybean is a big dog and she handles him very well and keeps him safe.”

My apartment is pet friendly and has a grass area right upfront as well as a fenced yard they can go out to!

About: Having 4+ years of volunteering at my animal shelter has given me the experience to handle various kinds of dogs and their personality traits. I primarily bring them out in the play yards to get their daily exercise so to do this outside the shelter would be like my ideal day of never ending fun. On my free-time I like to research dog breeds and learn anything dog-related. I also love to run my dog blog on instagram. I would like to commit at least 3 days of full-time availability. Nighttime hours (6-11PM) is probably my preferred time because I'm almost always available then. Dogs deserve the exercise and love they need while their owners are away and I'll do my best to make make sure they get it. My house-sitting routine is set to ensure your pet receives consistent, attentive care throughout the day. On weekdays, I provide morning care before heading to work (which begins at 8:00 AM in Chula Vista). Depending on my route, I’m typically available again between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM. After work, I return to spend a few hours feeding, caring for, and giving your pet plenty of attention. I then briefly check in on my own pets before coming back to your home for the evening and overnight care. On weekends, I have greater flexibility. I am available every Saturday and every other Sunday, allowing me to dedicate even more time and attention to your pet’s needs. Caring for your pet is both a joy and a responsibility I take seriously. While you’re away, they’ll be treated like one of my own—with lots of love, attention, and care. I like to follow a detailed care sheet outlining your pet’s usual routine so I can mirror it as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable and at ease in your absence. You can also expect plenty of adorable updates, and I’m always available if you or I have any questions along the way.
About: Animals are and will for ever be part of my life, they are a huge source of happiness for me, even if I’m not their owner and only have them for a few minutes, I will love them and respect them as if they where my own. I’ve taken care of many dogs, cats, and other different pets and have the experience needed for knowing what they want and how to treat them. I am available to take care of your pets any day of the week even weekends! This mostly during breaks, I am a college student so during school semesters the availability can change depending on my classes, but I’ll usually change that in advance on the app. I also can do nights, or we can arrange something that will work for both sides, I’m very open to talk and help in any way possible! Most services are offered, I can walk them, feed them, spend time with them and pet them of course! I can stay nights, the day or even a few hours or minutes at your place and they are also welcome to my home any time. Safety is important on both sides, if pets are aggressive or bite please let me know in advance, if they have conditions or medical issues please let me know, I’ll take care of them with all the safety needed and provide them with a loving, caring and safe environment.
About: Hello there! I understand you may need someone to look over your fur-baby?! Well, here’s why I’d be a perfect fit! I have been taking care/looking over dogs for 10+ years! I have had two cocker spaniels, a golden retriever/chowchow mix, a cattle dog/Rottweiler mix, as well as a Belgium Malinois. I have also dog-sat for numerous friends and family throughout the years. Anything and everything from letting them go out for a potty break, getting them some grubs, getting some play time, going for a stroll, or simply having human interaction while their favorite human is out. I will always make sure they have the best possible care as if they were my fur-baby. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to send me a message! Hope to meet your pup soon! I am currently working part time but am extremely flexible with my schedule. If things need to be moved around feel free to send me a detailed message. I’m not able to promise that things can always be switched around, but I will try my best to accommodate. I will always make sure your pet is being watched whether inside or out so you can rest assured they will be in the safest hands possible.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have enjoyed caring for pets my whole life. I had my sweet girl Stella, a pug, for 13 years. I crate, potty, and recall trained her as a puppy, fed her a balanced diet of vitamins and homemade food throughout her life, and gave her loving, gentle care in her senior hospice years. I’ve also cared for my mom’s boxer for a year and even taught her, her favorite trick… tossing a treat up with her nose and catching it! I’ve looked after my friends’ pets as well, including cats, kittens, dogs, puppies, senior dogs, birds (parrot), a chameleon, and special mentioned of a disabled Frenchie who needed a little extra help to go potty. I make friends with any neighborhood kitties when they let me. Usually just takes a bit of chicken or turkey. Lol I have a pretty flexible schedule, so I can work around almost any animals needs. I work Amazon Flex so I set my own hours and only do 1-2 hr shifts (sometimes multiple times a day). If I leave the house, I am gone for a max of 3-4 hrs or less depending on where I’m delivering to. I’m patient, attentive, and dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and understand that giving their family peace of mind makes leaving them just a little bit easier.

About: The Kind of Care I'd Want for My Own Pup/Kitty Dogs have been a part of my life for over 20+ years, and caring for them has always come naturally. I grew up with cats and dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets as well as sitting and walking dogs for friends and family. I currently have a 6-year-old Belgian Malinois named Nova, so I'm very familiar with high-energy breeds that need both physical exercise and mental stimulation. We enjoy hiking, long walks, trips to the park, and staying active together. Whether your pup/kitty loves adventure or prefers a slower pace, I'll tailor their care to fit their personality and routine. I understand that every pup/kitty is unique, and I treat each one with the same patience, attention, and affection I give Nova. My goal is simple: to provide the kind of care I'd want for my own pup/kitty, safe, reliable, loving, and full of fun. I'll make sure you and your pup/kitty feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away, giving you complete peace of mind. I'm currently furthering my education, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pup/kitty. I'm available weekends and weekdays for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks in the comfort of your home. Just message me to arrange! I'll treat your pup/kitty with the same love, attention, and care I give my own. When caring for your pup/kitty in your home, my priority is making sure you and your pup/kitty feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by maintaining their normal routine. I'll follow all of your care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special preferences or restrictions. I always treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping it clean, secure, and leaving it just as I found it. I'll also provide lots of updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup/kittie is happy and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet by providing dependable, attentive, and loving care every visit.

“Lori is my favorite sitter! She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and overall takes great care of my dogs. She was also communicative about my dogs behavior while they were with her, and she was very patient with one of my dogs misbehaving a little. I can rest easy whenever my dogs are with her!”

“Stacy is the absolute best! My dog Bailey had a great time while staying at Stacy’s house. Stacy was perfectly accommodating and made easy and very smooth for Bailey’s first test run being boarded. I got lots of updates and photos throughout Bailey’s stay. I’ll tell everyone I know to use Stacy in the future!”

“We had an amazing experience with Priscilla and Pascual! They took excellent care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the entire stay with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. We came home to a very happy pup! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with them again!”

“Jessica is amazing! She was quick to respond to our request and took amazing care of our dogs. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing they were in good hands. She sent us updates and pictures throughout the stay.”

“Kaitlin and Verle took great care of our little Remy. They were very understanding of his special needs (he’s an anxious and dog-reactive pup), and their home provided a safe, calm space for him.”

“Monique (and her family) watched my senior kitty with chronic kidney disease. I was very concerned about him using the bathroom and being comfortable since it’s the first time I boarded him anywhere. She was incredibly helpful and did a meet & greet with us to see how he would do. We discussed the best set-up for him ahead of time and she really put my worries at ease. She sent me plenty of updates about his situation and pictures of him. He warmed up to them way quicker than I thought he would! He was incredibly comfortable with them after about a day. They really treated him like he was a part of the family!”

“Absolutely pleased with Kimberly and her watching my boys. She made me feel at ease that they were in good hands and they were. She kept, me informed and provided regular updates and pictures of Samsom and Thor.. Highly recommend her to anyone looking to leave their pets.”

“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”


“Diego was great! My babies (pups) 🐶🐶 came back happy. He provided us with pictures during their overnight stay. I will definitely be booking him in the future. Thank you again Diego!”


“Dominique really saved my week by agreeing to a last minute booking when I unexpectedly had to rearrange my travel plans and find a place to board my dog the same day. She is friendly and great with dogs. I was worried about how my dog would get along with hers, but Dominique is an amazing pack leader and managed everything without incident. I appreciated the daily photos and updates with details of how my dog spent her day, how she was eating, and sleeping. I would definitely recommend Dominique as a dog sitter, and if I ever need a sitter in the future I will definitely reach out to her again! Thank you Dominique!”

“Auntie Carmen was absolutely THEEEEE BEST sitter! I was so anxious about leaving my babies for their first time with someone outside of the family. Carmen was very patient, caring,”

“I can't thank Melanie enough for taking such wonderful care of Gunny while I was out of town! From her swift response to my initial inquiry to her warm welcome when we arrived, the entire experience was fantastic. Melanie made Gunny feel right at home, and I truly appreciated the daily updates she sent - they gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Her home provided a clean, safe environment where Gunny could relax and enjoy himself. It was so comforting to see how well Gunny got along with Melanie's dog! Always nice to see him make new friends and enjoy some canine companionship during his stay. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover how much Melanie and I have in common! Those connections made me feel even more comfortable leaving Gunny in her care. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for pet care, and I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Melanie, for going above and beyond to make our experience so positive!”

“Vanessa & and her son took amazing care of Chumpie! He had a great time and misses them already! We will definitely use them again. Thank you Vanessa for treating our special boy like your own. :)”
