“Nicole was awesome and Bailey had a fantastic time. She treated Bailey like she was her own dog and I couldn’t ask for more sent many pictures and updates and just love the fact that I have somebody that I can go to if I have to go out of town I highly recommend her.”
“It was our first time utilizing anyone to board our dog. we were pretty nervous but the very first day our dog was with her, she sent photos! I was not able to drop her off so I didn't get to go over the details but I wanted to and did not realize that my boyfriend had left several things out. That being said after multiple text messages she totally got a feeling for our dog and took it from there. While we were gone I received videos and photos and updates. When he picked her up he said he could tell she had a lot of fun. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend and re-book her for anytime we need someone to watch our dog. When we adopted her she was very skittish and Kelsey made her feel at ease and myself as well! Thank you so much!!!”
“While I was away, Sade had excellent communication with me the entire time. She sent pictures and updates regularly, which I really appreciated. She also followed the meal plan I provided perfectly and took great care of Peanut. I would definitely highly recommend Sade to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and I will absolutely be using her again in the very near future!”

I appreciated the texted updates about how he was doing and the attached photos. I won't hesitate to have Riley in their care when the need arises.”
“Achara is the best. Hudson has spent several long weekends with her now and he is more excited to see her and her family at drop off than to see us at pick up! A great sign that he feels right at home there. Achara is always really easy to communicate with, sending photos and updates throughout his stay - in fact most recently she helped us coordinate a last minute pickup as we were heading to the hospital to have a baby! Couldn’t recommend her highly enough as a loving home for our fur baby when we’re away.”

I truly appreciated her communication and care, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

We highly recommend Destiny as a responsible, flexible, and caring dog sitter.”

His property is also ideal for dogs to explore, have fun, and exercise! Booking her next stay now!”

She took in the paper off the drive. Fed the boy. Sent pics. When I came home house was like I left it and my boy was fat and happy. I would definately work with Melissa again. This was so easy. Who knew?”
“Yuanyuan and her family were incredible doggy sitters! We received daily photo and video updates at every feeding, walk, playtime, and bedtime! We are so, so grateful for the amount of effort they put into sending updates! They followed our care instructions EXACTLY. We had such peace of mind throughout our week-long vacation knowing Sammy was totally cared for!

Sammy looked like he enjoyed himself as much as we did! 10/10 would recommend!!!”

“Carla was absolutely wonderful with our kitty, Kiki! We were traveling last‑minute and were so nervous to leave her, but Carla eased all of our worries right away. She communicated constantly, sent thoughtful updates, and showed so much genuine care for Kiki. She went above and beyond—cleaned up litter, managed an ant situation, refreshed food and water, and made sure Kiki got tons of love and attention every visit. Kiki adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed cat. We are so grateful for her reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would 100% trust her with Kiki again. Highly recommend Carla!”
“I’ve booked with her three times now. This time - for drop-ins with my cat, and she has been consistently great. She always makes sure his litter box is clean, his food and water are full, and she takes the time to play with him, which I really appreciate. It gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in good hands while I’m away. She does a wonderful job, and I’ll definitely keep booking with her!”

“Benjamin was wonderful. I could tell through the pictures and the description that he really cares. My cat does not normally like males, but he warmed up to him and even wanted cuddles from him. I felt very safe and secure leaving my home and baby in his hands. Benjamin is my new favorite pet sitter!”

“I couldn't be more pleased with Benjamin's exceptional dog walking services. He walked my beloved dog, Ty Chi, for a week twice a day, and the care and attention he provides are truly outstanding. From the very first walk, it was evident that Benjamin has a genuine passion for dogs. He takes the time to understand my dog's unique needs and personality, ensuring that Ty Chi always feels comfortable and happy. Benjamin's care for details is remarkable—he meticulously follows all instructions regarding Ty Chi's specific needs. He even takes the time to update me with photos and notes after each walk, which I greatly appreciate. Punctuality is another one of Benjamin's strengths. He has never missed a scheduled walk and always arrives on time, ready to give Ty Chi the exercise and attention he needs. This reliability gives me peace of mind, knowing that my dog is in capable and trustworthy hands. What truly sets Benjamin apart is his attention to detail. He notices the little things that make a big difference, such as adjusting the leash to ensure Ty Chi's comfort to make the walk even more enjoyable. His thoughtful approach shows how much he cares about the dogs he walks. I highly recommend Benjamin to anyone in need of a dog walker who is not only professional and reliable but also genuinely cares about the well-being of your pet. Ty Chi and I are incredibly grateful for Benjamin's outstanding service and look forward to many more walks together!”

I currently work from 9am-4pm, but I only work two days every other week, and five days a week the other weeks. In October I’ll switch to working 3am-9am though so I’ll have all day! I do not have any pets currently so my house is totally free! We also have a fenced in yard and several parks nearby that I would be happy to take any dogs to. Within your own home I will ensure I follow all guidelines you set forth to the letter.
About: I love caring for animals and I made it my career. I currently work at an emergency veterinary hospital as a veterinary assistant. I know how to handle all kinds of animals and I’m able to care for pets that need regular medical attention. I currently am free Sunday- Wednesday. I work overnights the rest of the week so I will not take Thursday- Saturday because I will need to rest and work those days. I will follow instructions given by the owner and take my time to make sure your baby is comfortable with me. I love to play and snuggle pets so I will make sure they have great company.
About: I have had a variety of animals always in my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish and rodents. (All of which I've had at some point) I have also worked for a rescue charity for 7+ years which resulted in having learned basic and emergency care, as well as administration of medication. I am retired and looking to fill my time with love and cuddles. I have always enjoyed caring for the variety of animals I have and have had. I love learning all the cute special quirks and loves of every animal I interact with. I am very respectful of other people's space and items - my focus is on the animals in my charge. I can feed, walk, play and generally be a companion to any animal. I also respect the home and treat it even better than my own, ensuring that I leave the home as I found it.
About: As a natural caregiver and a past professional caregiver I’m looking forward to helping care for your furry (or scaly!) family members! I’ve worked in a pet store and have actual professional animal training. As the mother of four children and the proud owner of four dogs I have an amazing capacity for patience but firmness. I know how to keep structure but have fun! I love giving treats but will ensure healthy diet and exercise! I believe in balance and treating your family the way that you would treat them yourself! I am organized and will keep an accurate record of your pets care so that you never have to wonder what or when you need to Do your pets next feeding, medications, or potty breaks!

“Nicole was awesome and Bailey had a fantastic time. She treated Bailey like she was her own dog and I couldn’t ask for more sent many pictures and updates and just love the fact that I have somebody that I can go to if I have to go out of town I highly recommend her.”
“It was our first time utilizing anyone to board our dog. we were pretty nervous but the very first day our dog was with her, she sent photos! I was not able to drop her off so I didn't get to go over the details but I wanted to and did not realize that my boyfriend had left several things out. That being said after multiple text messages she totally got a feeling for our dog and took it from there. While we were gone I received videos and photos and updates. When he picked her up he said he could tell she had a lot of fun. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend and re-book her for anytime we need someone to watch our dog. When we adopted her she was very skittish and Kelsey made her feel at ease and myself as well! Thank you so much!!!”
“Achara is the best. Hudson has spent several long weekends with her now and he is more excited to see her and her family at drop off than to see us at pick up! A great sign that he feels right at home there. Achara is always really easy to communicate with, sending photos and updates throughout his stay - in fact most recently she helped us coordinate a last minute pickup as we were heading to the hospital to have a baby! Couldn’t recommend her highly enough as a loving home for our fur baby when we’re away.”
“Doh was an absolute lifesaver taking care of Dodger last minute. She was very responsive, attentive, and made me feel completely at ease during his stay. This was Dodger’s first time boarding overnight with someone else, and she did an amazing job keeping me updated with pictures and messages letting me know how he was doing. I truly appreciated her communication and care, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Grisel was great! We got pics of every mea/walk/ play time and our dog seemed to love every minute of it! We’ll definitely be booking with Grisel again. Thank you!!”
“Grant was very easy to communicate with and he sent pictures while we were away. It was the first time we boarded our dog so we were a little nervous, but she had a great time, and it was very easy to trust that Grant would take excellent care of her. His property is also ideal for dogs to explore, have fun, and exercise! Booking her next stay now!”
“Jena had our sweet Rocky for over 2 weeks during the holidays. It warmed our hearts to see him having such a wonderful time with her and her family. It’s so hard to find people you can trust to care for your pet, I’m so glad we found Jena ❤️”
“Andrew and family took great care of our 2 dogs while we were away for almost 3 weeks. They administered medication on time and kept us in the loop with daily updates. I enthusiastically recommend them for dog boarding!”
“Whitney was great with our two big dogs, including our old guy who doesn’t hear or see well. She was super easy to work with and communicated easily. We would definitely board with her again!”
“My dog did wonderfully with Kirsten! I've tried a few different boarding options and Kirsten is by far the best! She sent a daily update to let me know how it was going and was very quick and responsive to communication about both pickup and drop off times. I will certainly be using Kirsten again for my boarding needs.”
“Chelsi did an amazing job with our 15 month old Miniature Schnauzer, Menace. We went on vacation for 5 days and couldn't take Menace. Since this would be his first time away from us for a long period of time we decided to look into having Menace stay with a pet sitter instead of putting him in boarding and we're so glad we found Chelsi. From my first interaction with Chelsi I was impressed and we did a meet and greet at her place with Menace to make sure he would be comfortable. Chelsi also told us she was raised around Miniature Schnauzers so she was familiar with the breed. Menace took to her right away and we instantly knew that she was a perfect fit for him. Throughout our vacation Chelsi was very responsive and sent daily updates and pictures which we appreciated as we were nervous about Menace being away from us. Menace had a blast with Chelsi and we will definitely use her again in the future. We recommend Chelsi to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She was amazing!”
“My dog was well taken care of. She is shy but Sandra successfully pulled her out and made her comfortable. Lots of pics, lots of walks, and lots of cuddles. We’ll definitely use her again!”
“Morgan was a great host for our dog when we needed someone at a short notice. She took great care of our dog including taking him out on a nice walk. I would definitely recommend her and use her again for a future appointment.”
“Jennifer and her family are the best! I never worry leaving our boy with them. He has so much fun and comes home tired. Jennifer was so flexible this time when we had to drop Cooper off a little early, thank you again!”
“All I can say is Wow! Everything was perfect with Sylvia and her pup Finn! The dogs got along so well and the yard is shaded and green. I got pictures during the stay and my dog, Deschutes was stretched out on the carpet with a face of contentment. Just what a dog owner wants to see!”
