“Heather and Calob were great!!! They cared for my dog for three days, and I received photos and updates throughout the day informing me of my dog’s mood, behavior, and feeding/play time! They were also very flexible on time, which I greatly appreciated. I highly recommend booking both Heather and Calob for your dog’s daycare and boarding needs.”
“Jill has a beautiful home and property for the dogs to run and have fun. Great for socializing your dog. My fearful rescue dog was eight and home and relaxed and happy when I picked her up :)”
“I had a fantastic experience with Sandy! From the moment she picked Lucy up, I felt completely confident that she was in great hands. Her communication was prompt and friendly, and the regular updates and photos really put my mind at ease. Lucy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to find someone as trustworthy and attentive as Sandy. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future—thank you so much for taking such great care of Lucy!”
About: I’ve been walking my own dogs and taking care of them of over 10 years and I’ve been doing these types of apps for around a year I’m super flexible and free pretty much anytime—my schedule’s wide open right now, so I can hop on walks, drop-ins, boarding, or playtime whenever your pup needs it! Hey, I’ve got a big fenced yard—tons of space for safe play and running around. My one friendly dog loves company, and I can crate if needed.
“Alexis was great. I had to make a last minute booking and she was very prompt to arrange a meeting with my dog and I. I left Nikki at Alexis overnight and she took great care of her. She even accommodated her sleeping needs. Alexis has a beautiful property with lots of space for the doggies to run around and feel free. I will definitely bring Nikki to Alexis again!”
“Pixie came home happy and healthy! Lauren and Ben took wonderful care of her for six days. They sent us regular photos and updates, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. When our flight got canceled, they were incredibly accommodating. They helped us extend the booking and happily let Pixie stay with them for an extra day, which we truly appreciated. We're so grateful for their kindness and excellent care. We'll definitely book with them again in the future!”
“This was the second time my dog Ollie was boarded at Jamies house. It was for two weeks. I received pictures of Ollie and updates on his well being. Jamie has been prompt in responding to my communications. Ollie was obviously happy, well cared for and took his time leaving their house when I picked him up . I will be using Jamie’s service in the future.”
“We highly recommend Christina for pet sitting! Absolutely no reservations about her work. She is professional, responds quickly and our pup always seems healthy and happy upon drop off and pick up. We are grateful for Christina!”
About: I’m a dedicated pet lover with a lifetime of experience caring for animals. I currently have a 10-year-old dog and a cat who is truly my baby, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Having grown up in a household with dogs and cats my entire life, I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family! I am the owner of my business with a flexible schedule. I am available every morning, all day typically Tuesdays and Fridays. And later afternoons Monday Wednesday and Thursday. Please reach out and we can go more into detail about your specific needs, I am flexible I will treat your home and your pet like they are my own. Having grown up with cats and dogs in my household my entire life I know how chaotic it can be. I will be there to minimize chaos and make your animals feel safe and comfortable.
About: A pet lover here! We always had dogs and cats growing up and that’s how I developed my love for animals. I also used to take care of my own pets and petsit for my friends. I will provide your fur baby with a warm and welcoming home and offer plenty of exercise and playtime. I am currently a stay at home mom taking care of two kids with one of them being at school and the other home most days which allows me to offer proper care to your pet. We have a fenced backyard and a park nearby as well as a spacious house. Your pet will have unrestricted use of the downstairs area and a separate room for sleeping.
“Ellen was absolutely wonderful! She cared and loved my dog as much as I did and it definitely showed. She made sure to send pictures and updates throughout the day and was prompt with her response. I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about my dog thanks to Ellen! Highly recommend.”
About: Currently being a stay at home mother, my hours are very flexible! Growing up with cats and dogs, my kiddos and I are currently lacking the fun presence of furry friends! Although my apartment is not the biggest, allowing only one dog at a time allows all of my attention to be focused. If pets are to stay overnight you can expect daily walks, trips to dog parks and most likely a bath if we get too ambitious. I am an adventurous person that believes dogs have individual personalities and unique characteristics that should be embraced and loved. Allowing pets to cuddle up on the couch MAY be negotiated because I am a sucker for puppy eyes. I am currently a stay at home with my three kiddos. I home school, so including a dog in the mix is so much fun for us! We often go on walks and trips to the park. I have a fenced yard, doggie door for easy outside access and loving, gentle kids to keep your animals company with lots of love and play.
“We’ve used Angela twice now to watch Winnie, and she’s been great every time. She’s reliable, flexible, and communicative, but most importantly, she is so kind to Winnie. The extra outings and adventures she takes her on are such a nice touch. Highly recommended!”
About: I have cared for a wide variety of animals over the years. I spent several years volunteering at a veterinary clinic and later at a humane society, where I gained hands-on experience in animal care, handling, and support. I telework so I am at home most of the day. When I do leave, dogs hang out in the dog run where they have access to comfy beds, toys and access to an upstairs patio where they can keep an eye on all the goings-on. I have a fully fenced yard that provides a safe, secure space for dogs to run, play, or relax comfortably. I provide supervised playtime in the yard several times a day and at least one 20-30 minute walk around the neighborhood.
“Carl was great! He was completely accommodating when we had a last-minute change of itinerary. Our girl is definitely a frisky terrier, but he seemed to take it all in stride and kept us updated on her stay while we were away. She came home relaxed and seemed like her normal self - so different than when she is left in a kennel situation! We would definitely use Carl again!”

“I couldn't have asked for a better person to take care of my cat Scrub while I was away this past weekend. As soon as I met. Krista, I felt that we had found someone who would care for Scrub just as I would and with the need for her new medications it was really comforting to realize that there would be someone there to take care of Scrub with the same care that I would. I would recommend Krista to anyone without hesitation and look forward to working with her again. Thank you so much! Krista, you really made my weekend much less stressful and I thank you for that. Peace Jeff and Scrub”
“This was our fist time using Jinah to care for our senior cat and she did a great job! She sent pictures and let me know how Lilah was in real time. We will definitely call on Jinah again! Thank you”

“Blake was absolutely wonderful! Everything was perfect — she was always on time and followed all of our instructions carefully and thoughtfully. What meant the most to us was receiving her daily notes about each visit — how everything went and how our kitty was feeling. They were always detailed and included photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our kitten was clearly happy, well cared for, and healthy when we returned — which made us especially grateful. Thank you so much, Blake! We’ll be more than happy to use your services again in the future 💛🐾”
About: I’ve had experience caring for cats for many years and understand that every cat has their own personality, comfort level, and routine. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I’ve cared for both indoor and outdoor cats in the past. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or needs extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping you updated with messages and photos.
“Highly recommend Mackenzie! My precious kitty loves her. Easy going and extremely conscientious. Two important qualities that don’t always coexist. Will definitely book future cat sits knowing we can count on the highest quality of care for our fur baby.”
“Kyline was fantastic for our house and kitty. Super upfront about work schedule. She sent us numerous photos and updates with and without prompting. Left the house clean, and took care of everything we asked. Highly recommend.”
About: I previously worked for a doggy daycare and boarding facility. I absolutely love dogs and have wonderful relationship with them. I now have roughly 3 years experience watching dogs all day long and have a great grasp on doggy language. I understand animals very well and have had plenty of experience with cats raising my own kitten for 16 years now. Dogs respond very well to me and my relationship with animals is one of my strongest assets. I am extremely reliable and hard working. I will do whatever it takes and go above and beyond what is expected of me. There is no chore too small or too big. I am responsible and respectful and have great communication skills. I am great at multi-tasking and i am extremely efficient. I am most available early mornings before 10am and evenings after 7:30pm and I’m always free on Friday! No Saturdays. Thanks!
“Gina is such a reliable and responsible person who provides excellent care to my cats! She is very communicative and always helps me feel at ease when I travel. I definitely recommend booking with her!”
“Thank you, Maddie, for taking such good care of Marinara! She gave our cat lots of love and attention while we were away. It has been hard to find a reliable pet sitter, so we are so glad to have found Maddie. She is trustworthy, a great communicator, and very sweet. We will definitely have Maddie back!”
About: Hello! My name is Giselle. I am 25 years old, and I love animals, especially cats and dogs. I have two cats of my own, as well as 1 small dog, and they are my children! I have spent a lot of time researching their needs and trying to be the best parent I could be. I also have experience working at a doggy day care. I would watch over small, medium and large dogs, feed and bathe them when needed. I also took up a couple shifts as overnight boarder, which required me to stay overnight and make sure they were okay, and well accompanied. One of my favorite jobs but once I graduated SSU I went closer into the medical field which is ultimately what I want to do career wise, but I will always have a lot of love to work with animals.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 15.Friends have relied on me to walk,feed, and take their dog out when they are out of town. I am going to transfer to sfsu in the fall. I am currently pretty open through the week and weekends. I work as a caregiver as well twice a week. I am looking for something to do with the extra time i have on my hands! I work as a caregiver as well twice a week I will make sure doors are closed at all times to ensure your dogs will not get out. I will be with pups at all time.
About: Hi! I’ve been a dog bather for four years so I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve also babysat my family’s dog many times and administered his oral medication frequently. My schedule is completely open so pet care fits easily into my routine! I am on summer break currently so my schedule may change in September but as of now it is completely open. My own dog was very sneaky and often tried to get under the fence at my house, so I am very good with keeping a close eye on the dogs to make sure they are safe. In addition, I have administered my dogs oral medicine many times and am very comfortable with it.

“Saved my butt when traveling through the region and needed a dog sitter for the day. My Jef was happy and comfortable, and I could tell he had affection for Heather when we left.”
About: I am a huge animal lover and have had many pets all of my life. My dogs are not just pets but members of the family. I have had many dogs over the years ranging from cockapoo’s, terriers, Westies, a German Shepherd and yellow Labs. I have also had 5 cats. My current dog and cat are best friends! I care for many friends and neighbor dogs and have play dates on a daily basis. Dogs are always on the guest list for dinner parties or holiday gatherings and have gifts under the tree. If I had a bigger yard, I’d have a dozen. I would love to meet and spoil your dog while you were away. I will treat them like my own and we will have a great time together. After retiring from my long term job, I became a caregiver for family members. I enjoy walking so thought this would be a perfect fit for getting more exercise and fill my love of having multiple dogs. I have availability in between caring for people and would love to take your dog for a walk. I will care for your pets as my own in your home and a walk. If there is any special requests or instructions, I will happily follow.
“Great and easy experience dropping our high maintenance baby off with Christina for a few hours so we could go to a party in town. She was very chill and easy to correspond with. He slept the whole way home so obviously had a good visit with her. Thank you, Christina!”

“My pug LOVES spending time at Lauren and Ben’s house playing with all the dogs or just lounging on the floor. When we arrive, he tugs hard on his leash to get inside. It’s wonderful to know that when he’s away from home, he’s safe and happy in their care.”
“Ellen was such a great sitter! I needed a Rover sitter last minute and she was able to help. She is very kind and communicative and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Grayson with her. She provided photo updates and reassured me he was fitting in well with her pups! I’ll definitely be a repeat customer! (Oh and she sent Grayson home with a stash of really good treats which he promptly reminded me of when we got home - thanks, Ellen!)”

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life. I am an only child, so I grew up imagining my cats and dogs were my siblings. In adulthood, I have taken care of my own pets for the past 15 years. I am never without a small brood of animals. If you ever saw me walking my dogs, you’d notice a few felines traipsing behind us. My cats simply refuse to be excluded from any adventures. My love for animals has now extended into rescuing and fostering various types of different creatures. While attending college in Brooklyn, New York, I found and rescued a former fighting pitbull from horrible circumstances. He was blessed to be adopted by a couple of guys in a fraternity on Long Island, and they gave him a forever home. Most recently, I rescued and raised an orphaned Western Grey Squirrel. I got to play mama to this woodland creature for almost a year, before releasing her back into the wild as a fully self-sufficient adult. I also had Chinchillas for a short time. I genuinely enjoy the company of all furry and feathered friends. Animals of all kind are welcome in my home.
About: I have been a nurse for 22 years. I am in school again and at home with my 17 lb dog all the time. I have cared for dogs my whole life and taken care of my friends dogs while they travel for as along as I can remember. I have a large fenced in back yard and a dog door. I am easily able to handle medication and medications schedules. My dog loves to play with other dogs and I am hoping to find regulars who would like frequent care so she can have her friends over! I am in school full time via an online program so I am home a tremendous amount. There will be a few days a week that I go into a clinic for 8 hours but most days and nights I am home. We go on nightly walks as well. There is a large fenced yard and in general the back door is open and my dog goes in and out as she wishes! I am very flexible!

“Just visiting the area and super grateful to have found Jestina so I could attend an event. She loved my energetic boxer mix as if she were her own. I appreciated the updates, pix and video, and also the warm interest she took in my own life too! (Sometimes the dogs get all the attention!) Highly recommend and will use again when in town! Thank you, Jestina!”
About: I am a life-long dog owner and lover. In the past few years I have helped raise multiple puppies and been a professional pet and house sitter. I have cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes, from teeny tiny to 130+ lbs ! I love going on walks in nature and making sure dogs get sufficient exercise and mental stimulation. And of course, lots of snuggles! I have experience with elderly and special needs dogs as well, including medication and special diets. I look forward to meeting your sweet pup! I am a musician who works from home so I have a lot of flexibility and time to pour into the animals I am caring for. Daily walks are my favorite! I treat every space I enter as sacred and care for it like my own. My home has 2 small dogs currently, so it is designed for their care and safety. I love to leave a space cleaner than when I found it! And bless it with positive energy, leaving you with a happy pet.
“Steven hosted my dog over for doggy day care when I received a last minute cancellation from another sitter. All worked out great. Steven had prompt communication, understood dog behavior and needs, followed through on my requests on how to care for my dog. Perfect experience, highly recommend! My dog will be back!”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals including cats, dogs, chickens, goats, pigs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and the list goes on! I'm comfortable around all animals, and I absolutely adore them all! I go to school full time, but I do not have classes on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. I can be available between classes on Wednesday and Thursday. There's lots of room for flexibility in my schedule. I will follow all instructions the owner provides. I can crate animals, take them on walks, feed, and water them, and keep them entertained throughout the day.
About: I've taken care of animals ever since I can remember. I've worked with them at a boarding facility for two years and even have had family friends depend on me to take care of their pets. I have plenty of time to play and get your animals energy out. i do have some hobbies that I can fit in while sitting such as working out. I love animals and cant wait to maybe meet yours! I always moniter any animals basic needs such as making sure they go potty, full/fresh water, eating reguarly if so, etc. Keeping them active depending on what animal I am working with.
About: I have been lucky to owned dogs my entire life, big and small. My wife and I had our last dog for 13 years until she passed away in 2025, so there is a lot of love that we are now re-directing to other dogs. I have taken care of friends, family, and acquaintances' dogs throughout my life and never had issues. Prioritizing your dog's safety is paramount inside and outside of our home. I work remote so overnights, doggie-day care, and daily walks are easy to manage. Our condo only has an enclosed patio, but directly behind the patio is a big communal yard that offers a lot of space to run around and play fetch. I have trained our previous dog from a pup and know how to reinforce good behaviors with treats, repetition, and boundaries. Your dog will be well taken care of and will have all the love they can get. I will not have multiple dogs from multiple people at the same time, to avoid any conflict. However, I am willing to take care of multiple dogs from one owner. Thank you for your consideration! I work from home, so doggie daycare during the week is very manageable. Overnights throughout the week are easier than the weekend, but with advanced notice, a weekend overnight could work. I have a two story condo with an enclosed patio. There is also a large yard directly behind the patio for an easy bathroom spot and fetch area.

“Sarah is such a loving and caring person with my dog. He absolutely loves her and her kids! She always keeps me updated on everything that’s going on with him and responds to every single one of my messages super quickly. I can tell he is happy, safe, and well cared for with her. I would definitely trust her with my dog again without hesitation. Highly recommend Sarah! ❤️🐶”
“Blake is so good with our two young, high strung dogs. On the days they go on walks with her, they are so much happier when we get home from work and behave much better after getting some energy out during the day. Blake is patient, kind, communicative and trustworthy. Thank you ❤️”
About: Hello! I’ve been dog walking for the past year and it’s become my favorite activity. I give careful, loving attention, and it’s a plus if the dog has been trained to respond to commands. I keep up with dog behavioral tips, carry essential items on-the-go, and you won’t find me scrolling on my phone during walks! I regularly walk a playful and adorable Labradoodle named Jerry. I don’t yet have a dog of my own but I will always make time for them. Simply put, dogs make life better! I’m a former librarian who enjoys helping others, and when I’m not walking, you’ll find me planning on volunteer committees, singing in choirs, and mentoring a fantastic teen. I look forward to meeting you and your pooch/pooches! My services include walking only, not pet sitting. Safety comes first, then fun. I am easily adaptable to following specific instructions or rules from each owner.
About: I grew up in a neighborhood my friends used to call “the farm”. We had 3 dogs, one neighbor had chickens, one neighbor had horses, and another neighbor had goats. Along with various dogs and cats at each house. Because I was the oldest kid in the neighborhood, I was the go-to person anytime a neighbor needed a house sitter or even just needed me to feed their pet dinner since they were out late. When I got older and started driving, I began dog sitting for our large group of friends, taking care of all sizes of dogs, cats, and the occasional reptile. Although I work part-time, I am generally available 7 days a week for house sitting. I am willing to accommodate crazy schedules and last minute plans if need be. I have a small home but a big yard, so while I can’t accommodate boarding, I have a large outdoor space and my own pup that is eager for play dates during the day. As for house sitting, I provide attentive, personalized care in my client’s home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely. With my history in the animal health field, I am comfortable administering any medications if needed. As a person who values communication, I provide regular ‘pupdates’ and pictures so owners feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

My schedule is a 2 week schedule that repeats, so I’m available every other weekend, every other Mon/Tues and every other Thurs/Fri. I’m hoping to find a few clients who are flexible as well! Unfortunately, I will not be able to provide home services at my own home as my boyfriend and I have 3 kitties and 1 dog of our own (unless your doggo is comfortable around cats).
About: I’ve had dogs most of my life but we’re I’m living now does not allow them so I need the connection with dogs.

I am available Monday through Friday wifh scattered hours between 7:30 AM until 6 PM At this point in time, I only have a cat. So I clean the litter out feed the cat give him lots of loving, but need more association with other animals. Unfortunately, our dog passed away, and we have chosen to get another one. I have taken care of other friends animals, and walk their animals.

“It was awesome going away and knowing Peter was in the comfort of his own home with a very caring person. Courtney sent us updates and pictures/videos the entire time. Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have 20+ years of experience taking care of animals. I have had all sorts of pets throughout my life and absolutely love spending time with them. I’ve learned how to care for them and give them the love and attention they require. Dogs and cats have always held a special place in my heart. Ive had all types of dogs from old to puppies, energetic to calm. Ive also cared for several cats during my time working for Rover. With the right mentality and energy, I can get along with any dog/cat. I also know basic commands I am currently a student with a lot of free time. Dogs bring a lot of happiness to my life so there’s literally no better way to spend my free time, than spending it with dogs who need someone to be there for her/him while their owner is away. I am very attentive and my overall goal is for your pet to feel safe, calm and at peace. If they have a routine they follow, I make sure that I don’t deviate from what they know.
“Oli has been such a help for both overnight house sitting and quick workday walks. She is respectful of all my requests, very communicative and helpful. Best of all, she is so great with my large, energetic German shepherd dog. I’m so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her services.”
“We had a great experience with Asher. Kind, communicative, detail-oriented, professional, and really went above and beyond with our dogs. It was clear from our first meeting that Asher is just a pro at caring for pets. Highly recommend and would book again without hesitation! Thanks Asher!”

“I had a fantastic experience with Sandy! From the moment she picked Lucy up, I felt completely confident that she was in great hands. Her communication was prompt and friendly, and the regular updates and photos really put my mind at ease. Lucy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to find someone as trustworthy and attentive as Sandy. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future—thank you so much for taking such great care of Lucy!”
“Jill has a beautiful home and property for the dogs to run and have fun. Great for socializing your dog. My fearful rescue dog was eight and home and relaxed and happy when I picked her up :)”
“Alexis was great. I had to make a last minute booking and she was very prompt to arrange a meeting with my dog and I. I left Nikki at Alexis overnight and she took great care of her. She even accommodated her sleeping needs. Alexis has a beautiful property with lots of space for the doggies to run around and feel free. I will definitely bring Nikki to Alexis again!”
About: I’ve been walking my own dogs and taking care of them of over 10 years and I’ve been doing these types of apps for around a year I’m super flexible and free pretty much anytime—my schedule’s wide open right now, so I can hop on walks, drop-ins, boarding, or playtime whenever your pup needs it! Hey, I’ve got a big fenced yard—tons of space for safe play and running around. My one friendly dog loves company, and I can crate if needed.
“Pixie came home happy and healthy! Lauren and Ben took wonderful care of her for six days. They sent us regular photos and updates, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. When our flight got canceled, they were incredibly accommodating. They helped us extend the booking and happily let Pixie stay with them for an extra day, which we truly appreciated. We're so grateful for their kindness and excellent care. We'll definitely book with them again in the future!”
“We highly recommend Christina for pet sitting! Absolutely no reservations about her work. She is professional, responds quickly and our pup always seems healthy and happy upon drop off and pick up. We are grateful for Christina!”
“We’ve used Angela twice now to watch Winnie, and she’s been great every time. She’s reliable, flexible, and communicative, but most importantly, she is so kind to Winnie. The extra outings and adventures she takes her on are such a nice touch. Highly recommended!”
“Carl was great! He was completely accommodating when we had a last-minute change of itinerary. Our girl is definitely a frisky terrier, but he seemed to take it all in stride and kept us updated on her stay while we were away. She came home relaxed and seemed like her normal self - so different than when she is left in a kennel situation! We would definitely use Carl again!”
About: I have cared for a wide variety of animals over the years. I spent several years volunteering at a veterinary clinic and later at a humane society, where I gained hands-on experience in animal care, handling, and support. I telework so I am at home most of the day. When I do leave, dogs hang out in the dog run where they have access to comfy beds, toys and access to an upstairs patio where they can keep an eye on all the goings-on. I have a fully fenced yard that provides a safe, secure space for dogs to run, play, or relax comfortably. I provide supervised playtime in the yard several times a day and at least one 20-30 minute walk around the neighborhood.
“Abygail and Kai took great, thoughtful care of our old gal, Kona. We were gone for a little over a week and it was such peace of mind knowing they were with her. Abygail sent regular updates, and pictures and videos -- it was clear Kona felt comfortable with them from the start. They also housesat for us -- more peace of mind! -- and left our house in pristine condition. I would highly recommend these two for petsitting and housesitting needs, and we plan on using them again in the future!”
“Robert sent updates everyday and I knew Riley and Luma were spoiled at his house. Riley is a senior and needs eye drops twice a day, Robert was understanding and provided what she needed.”
“Sunny returned a very happy boy after getting to run around a beautiful property with lots of new friends. David was kind, responsive and flexible! Would love to have Sunny visit again when we're in the area :)”
About: I have been a nurse for 22 years. I am in school again and at home with my 17 lb dog all the time. I have cared for dogs my whole life and taken care of my friends dogs while they travel for as along as I can remember. I have a large fenced in back yard and a dog door. I am easily able to handle medication and medications schedules. My dog loves to play with other dogs and I am hoping to find regulars who would like frequent care so she can have her friends over! I am in school full time via an online program so I am home a tremendous amount. There will be a few days a week that I go into a clinic for 8 hours but most days and nights I am home. We go on nightly walks as well. There is a large fenced yard and in general the back door is open and my dog goes in and out as she wishes! I am very flexible!
About: I have been lucky to owned dogs my entire life, big and small. My wife and I had our last dog for 13 years until she passed away in 2025, so there is a lot of love that we are now re-directing to other dogs. I have taken care of friends, family, and acquaintances' dogs throughout my life and never had issues. Prioritizing your dog's safety is paramount inside and outside of our home. I work remote so overnights, doggie-day care, and daily walks are easy to manage. Our condo only has an enclosed patio, but directly behind the patio is a big communal yard that offers a lot of space to run around and play fetch. I have trained our previous dog from a pup and know how to reinforce good behaviors with treats, repetition, and boundaries. Your dog will be well taken care of and will have all the love they can get. I will not have multiple dogs from multiple people at the same time, to avoid any conflict. However, I am willing to take care of multiple dogs from one owner. Thank you for your consideration! I work from home, so doggie daycare during the week is very manageable. Overnights throughout the week are easier than the weekend, but with advanced notice, a weekend overnight could work. I have a two story condo with an enclosed patio. There is also a large yard directly behind the patio for an easy bathroom spot and fetch area.
“Amanda was terrific when we boarded our cat with her for a few days while we moved into our new house. She texted us every day with updates and also took some photos for us. I would not hesitate to use her again!”
“Jayden was a good fit for us. He’s great with dogs! He’s a great guy and I appreciate that he charged a reasonable rate. He also has the perfect dog for accepting other dogs in his home.”
