“Crystal took amazing care of my two dogs, Misty and Salma, on very short notice! She was communicative, sent videos/updates, and it was obvious my girls were happy, comfortable, and well supervised. They got nightly walks and plenty of playtime, and Crystal did a great job reading their different personalities, and she also made pickup incredibly easy by dropping them off at my home. I would absolutely book with Crystal again and highly recommend her!”
“Our dog has never been left with a boarder; we were very nervous and it was difficult to leave him. In the first 5 minutes, we knew that John was the person for us. He allowed our dog to approach him rather than the other way around and he seemed very interested and knowledgeable in our dog’s shyness and shortcomings. We received reassuring updates and pictures all weekend that showed us our dog was safe, bring well cared for and having a fun time. We will always use John to care for our dog.”
“Alessandra was so great! I was super nervous using this app for the first time, but feel truly lucky and blessed having found Alessandra! Upon meeting her, I was super comfortable and I felt as though I was leaving my dog in the care of a good friend or trusted family member. She was very attentive and communicative, I appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. I have nothing but good things to say, and absolutely recommend her! She will def be my go-to dog sitter! She’s the best!”
“I want to just thank these two. Followed instructions exactly as stated, gave frequent updates, and provided us with so many pictures and videos. Suki had so so so much fun with Nala and Thena and even got exposure to kittens that were being fostered in their home. I will definitely be a returning client.”
“My 4 year old Nala boarded overnight with Lauren at her place. Lauren was so sweet with Nala and made sure to make her feel at home. My dog has separation anxiety but Lauren made her feel comfortable. I received comforting photo updates frequently and that made me feel less anxious too. Definitely recommend Lauren for your pet sitting needs :)”
“Buddy is always so excited to go visit with Sarah and Jamey C. He so loves it there. He is happy when we pick him up too. It's obvious they take such great care of Buddy. We couldn't be happier leaving Buddy with them.”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our girl! We were heartened to know she was safe with you and your pups and really appreciated the update and photos. Maudy sends her best to you and her poodle pals!”
“Morgan always does amazing with my malinois puppy! Bella is a ball of energy, but always makes taking care of her look easy! She’s literally the puppy whisperer 🤭 Thanks for everything always 🩷”
“This was the first time ever leaving our Riley with anybody other than family. We were very nervous, but Kimberly eased our anxiety right away with her gentle and inviting nature toward us and Riley. She took great care of him and kept us updated with many pictures and videos. It allowed us to enjoy our trip even more knowing that he was in good hands.”
“Your pets will seriously get the best of care with Taylor and Brian. They both love all pets to bits, and are great at feeding schedules, medicine, and special needs. I don’t think I can recommend them highly enough. I always entrust both my dogs and cats to their care, and have had successful drop ins and boarding.”
“Stacey was a wonderful and very caring dog sitter! Our young Labrador, Piper, loved her and loved playing with her three sweet dogs. The property was quite large and all well fenced, so I felt really comfortable leaving Piper to run and play to her heart’s content. The next time I return to this area i will definitely ask Stacey to dog sit again!!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and professional background in caring for both animals and people. I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have cared for them through every stage. From energetic puppies to beloved seniors. I also worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, where I gained hands on experience with animal handling, administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and providing compassionate care. Today, I’m a nurse, bringing the same calm, attentive, and safety focused approach to every life I care for. I’m trained in canine CPR and emergency life saving measures, so your pet’s well being is always my top priority. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to pet sit because they know I treat every animal like my own. Speaking of my own, I have a sweet 9 year old Pomeranian/Chihuahua named Phil. He’s incredibly gentle, loves other animals, enjoys cuddling, and spends most of his day happily napping. Whether your pet is young, senior, shy, or full of energy, I’ll provide loving, reliable, and attentive care so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work night shifts Monday through Thursday, while my husband works during the day, so our schedules allow for frequent supervision and plenty of one on one attention. We keep your pet’s routine as close to home as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. If your baby enjoys sleeping in bed, they’re welcome to cuddle with me just like my Phil. I naturally wake throughout the night (day) every 2-3 hours to let the babies out for potty breaks if needed. I take Phil on two walks every day. Once in the morning after work and again in the evening before my shift. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, loving home where every baby becomes apart of our family. I provide care in my home, where your babies safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home has a fully fenced, secure backyard for supervised potty breaks and outdoor time. For added safety, my front door is located behind a locked gate, creating an extra barrier that helps prevent the little cuties from accidentally getting outside. Inside, pups become our family, with plenty of love, attention, and a calm environment. I carefully follow each pups feeding schedule, medication instructions, exercise routine, and any special care they need. With my experience as a veterinary assistant and my nursing background, I’m attentive to changes in behavior and know how to respond quickly if concerns arise. My goal is to provide a safe, clean, and loving home where you can feel completely confident leaving your babies in my care.

“We made our booking on very short notice and Eve was kind enough to accept.

Thank you, Eve!”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal enthusiast with an intuitive understanding of furry, scaly, and feathered friends. Having owned cats my entire life, I've picked up a knack for cat whisperering. I know how to read a feline's cues, respect their boundaries, and quickly earn the trust of even the shyest or sassiest cats. I also bring professional dog training experience to the table. allowing me to read your dogs body language and happily reinforce your puppers good habits while you’re away. Beyond cats and dogs, my heart has always had room for critters of all kinds. Thanks to my time working in a pet store and years of loving my own birds, reptiles, spiders, and scorpions. I know how to adapt my care to make any pet feel safe and understood. Every animal deserves a gentle hand and a comforting presence. I can't wait to treat your family like my own.
“Nelson took great care of my kitten and kept me updated on he activity throughout the day. Nelson also provided my little man with his medication, and when I went to pick my kitten up early, Nelson was helpful and kind with getting me a refund for the days my pet did not stay with him. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I grew up in a house full of animals and have been caring for dogs and cats ever since. I understand how stressful it is to leave your pet with someone new, so I make it my priority to follow their routines and keep them comfortable. My experience includes: - Senior pets who need slower-paced care and extra attention - Puppies and younger dogs who need training reinforcement and boundaries - Shy or anxious pets who take time to warm up - Cats with specific feeding schedules, litter preferences, or medical needs - Multi-pet households where each animal has different requirements I take this work seriously because I know what your pet means to you. When you book with me, you're not getting someone who's just going through the motions. You're getting someone who will care for your dog or cat the way they deserve. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which means I'm home most of the day. That gives me time to: - Take dogs on multiple walks or play sessions throughout the day - Keep cats on their normal feeding and playtime routines - Stay present for pets who need companionship or have separation anxiety I can adjust my availability based on your needs, whether that's overnight stays, drop-in visits, or regular walking. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home: - I follow your routines exactly—feeding times, walk routes, medication schedules, bedtime habits - I keep doors and gates secure, especially with escape-prone cats or anxious dogs - I send updates and photos so you know how things are going - I treat your home with respect and leave it the way I found it In my home: - Clean, pet-friendly space with secure doors and windows - Separate areas for pets who need their own space (especially important for cats) - Comfortable sleeping areas, fresh water, and plenty of playtime or downtime based on what they prefer When you trust me with your pet, I take that seriously. They get the same care, consistency, and attention I'd give my own. No exceptions.
About: I’ve lived with a variety of cats of different ages, energy levels, and personalities. I have experience with female cats in heat, newborn kittens, and cats with medical needs. A favorite experience of mine was fostering and finding homes for 5 tiny kittens from a local shelter in 2022. I love getting to know each new cat I meet and giving them the best care possible.

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I’ve had dogs as pets since I was a baby. I have two chihuahuas that are 10 and 11 years old. I’ve had them since they were 8 weeks old and they are my babies. They are so spoiled and loved and my whole world. I’m currently taking a break from my full time job. My day depends on what I have scheduled, it’s very fluid and open. I start my day by scooping the cat litter box, letting my dogs outside to potty, taking care of and feeding my beta fish, opening windows and watering plants, and then making meals for my two cats and two dogs. I am at home majority of my day and spend a lot of time with my animals. I walk my two dogs everyday and make them meals. I brush my two cats everyday and give them enrichment activities. I spend the day cuddling with my dogs too. At my clients home, I would follow the directions provided to me as well as using my own discretion when necessary to provide the ultimate care. Your pets will be treated and loved like they are my own.
“We loved the service, and from the pictures we can tell Dexter was well taken care of and he had a great time. He’s a pup so we were worried about how he would do with the other dogs but looked like he fit right in. Thanks Jon! Definitely recommend and would trust them again with our boy.”
“These hosts were the best! They were flexible with us and understood the needs of both of our dogs. I felt 100% comfortable with my dogs being with them. I could tell they were well taken care of.”

“Ashlee was amazing! She responded right away and was able to accommodate us with less than 24 hours’ notice. She took great care of our dog, Ginger, while we were hiking in Yosemite. She was so kind and attentive, and even sent us photos and videos, which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely be booking with her again—thank you so much!”
“Our girls had such an awesome stay at Stacey's 7 acre ranch! Absolutley loved how she updated us throughout the day on how our girls were doing and sent pictures!

“Nelson was great. Was willing to take me kind of last minute and for a long day. Appreciate his being flexible. Was responsive and easy to communicate with. Nelson was great with my senior dog and I would use him again if in the area. Thanks Nelson!”
About: I have been an animal lover since I can remember. I have experience with cats and dogs of all sizes. It’s always been a passion of mine to take care of animals. I have dreamed of working with animals since I was young. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I am experienced in providing oral medications for dogs as well. Many friends and family members have relied on me to walk, bathe, feed and take care of their pets. Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I am available everyday of the week to walk, (I have two kids, so if the pups are kids friendly, I can bring my kids. If not kid friendly, I am available at 6pm or anytime after). I am available to dog sit (daily care or overnight) Friday-Mondays as of right now. My listing states I need two days in advance for a booking, but I understand sometimes things come up that we do not expect and people need services last minute. Please do not ever hesitate to reach out. Safety is my number one priority. We live on two and a half acres and have a lot of room for animals to play and explore. I do not leave my dogs unattended outside and I would not leave your dog alone outside either. I am very cautious with my dogs and I would give the same attention and cautiousness to any dogs under my watch as well. I always leash the dogs I care for when I take them outside, whether that’s to go for walks or just to go potty. I have plenty of toys and I always monitor my dogs when they play with them. I dispose of any toys that they tear into to make sure they do not ingest any parts of the toy. I have many dog beds and room inside for dogs to run and play. I do not mind animals on my furniture, I prefer them to be with me. My hallway is gated off as well, in case your dog has a special diet and needs to be fed separately. I also use this area for dogs to sleep at night if they are not crate trained. I tend to do separate feedings anyways just to be safe. My dogs are like my children and they get treated that way. I would do the same for my clients pets as well. The difference between taking your fur babies to a kennel and me is that I am home almost all day long, meaning your babies will get constant love and attention. Most kennels charge additionally for walks, one on one play time, and even group play. I spend time with my dogs (and those I care for), majority of everyday, until the late hours at night. I have two babies, my son is over a year old and my daughter is 8 months old. I do not leave them unattended with any dogs, not even my own. I do ask for you to let me know if your dogs are kid friendly. Even for dogs that are kid friendly, I am still extra cautious around children. It is better to be safe than sorry. This being said, that does not mean I will not give your fur babies the care and attention they need. I still do with my three fur babies everyday.

“Ruthie was the best! The dogs loved being with her and it was such a relief to have someone that stayed in contact and sent pictures through out the day! We would certainly use ruthie next time we are in town :)”
About: Your pet will not wanna go home. I will provide excellent care. Ive been obsessed with pets since I was a little boy and have always treated them as another human being.

They will also be able to roam in my home comfortably and freely as if in their own home.

I give my pets full access to my house and let them choose where they feel most comfortable. Of course I make sure to make my home very safe for them because they can be very curious about everything like a small toddler. There’s never a need to worry about their safety and we’ll being. I also have surveillance indoor and out just so I don’t miss anything.

About: Pet Care is important! I can help with your pets needs as your away from home whether on vacation or at work for long hours,I can stop by to help! I add more water & food, play/entertain, take cat outside for an outdoor break, or take your dog on W-A-L-Ks. I offer drop ins / dog walks during the week and overnight stay from Fri-Mon.

Afternoon Activities: In the afternoon, I engage pets in activities suitable for their energy levels, whether it's a walk, interactive play, or simply some cuddle time. Evening Check-ins: The evening routine involves another round of feeding, ensuring their comfort, and spending time with them before bedtime. 1.Dedicated Pet Space: Pets have access to a dedicated and comfortable space in my home, ensuring they have their own area to relax, sleep, and play. This space is designed to make them feel secure and at home. Dogs in my care will also have the opportunity to go outside every hour for approximately 30 minutes, where they can enjoy the fresh air and outdoor environment. During this time, they will be closely monitored to ensure their safety and well-being. 2.Regular Exercise: Pets staying with me enjoy regular exercise routines, including walks, playtime, and access to a secure outdoor area. 3.Social Interaction: Pets are not only included in my daily activities but also have social time with the residents of the home, including my own friendly dogs.

“As reluctant as I was to allow a stranger to come into my home, I was that much more hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my three dogs, in the end I knew I had no other choice but to hire someone due to my work schedule. While searching I came across Jef’s profile and I decided to go with him in booking dog walking for my three dogs. Jef even came to meet my dogs before he was to begin walking them the following day. From the initial message to the first time meeting, Jef maintained great communication and updated me each day after their walks. Jef definitely has something about him that made my dogs very comfortable around him. He quickly gained their trust and vice versa. Jef is also very persistent and knowledgeable in training dogs and helping to improve any bad leash habits. I will definitely be booking Jef for any future needs and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with pets.”

About: I grew up in a household with many dogs growing up, old and young. • cleaning and washing • physical activities (walks, runs, etc.) • Basic training skills I’m working part time at the moment so I have lots of extra time between work to squeeze in activity for when your busy schedule can’t. :) My care has only gone as far as my own pets so far but I don’t trouble with clean up, feedings, and various physical activities. I keep myself alert because I do understand every dog has their own special needs and I will always take extra care.
“Max is amazing! I reached out to him needing a last minute walk for our dogs and he made himself available right away. He is so attentive and truly cares for animals like they are his own. 10/10 absolutely recommend!”
About: First hand experience with care of puppies, seniors and those at their end of life. Personal experience giving medicine exactly as prescribed. I will love your pets like they are mine and make them feel loved in your absence. I work from home so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets when you must be away. I make my own schedule so I am flexible to arrive at your convenience. I have a large 5 acre property where I can provide long walks to your loved ones upon request. Time with me will be spent in a safe environment among nature. I will make sure that any messes made by your pet are taken care of in your absence.
About: Your pet will not wanna go home. I will provide excellent care. Ive been obsessed with pets since I was a little boy and have always treated them as another human being. Expect to get the best care from me for your pet because I believe they deserve it. They’ll always have a watching eye and never be unattended. They will also be able to roam in my home comfortably and freely as if in their own home. Your pet will always want to return to my home because I will provide the best experience that they have had with a pet sitter that honestly cares and strives to provide that nurturing and fun environment for each and every stay that they’ll have with me. I’m home 23 hours out of the day at home. I have plenty of time on my hands to be the best pet sitter for your pet. I give my pets full access to my house and let them choose where they feel most comfortable. Of course I make sure to make my home very safe for them because they can be very curious about everything like a small toddler. There’s never a need to worry about their safety and we’ll being. I also have surveillance indoor and out just so I don’t miss anything.

“Crystal took amazing care of my two dogs, Misty and Salma, on very short notice! She was communicative, sent videos/updates, and it was obvious my girls were happy, comfortable, and well supervised. They got nightly walks and plenty of playtime, and Crystal did a great job reading their different personalities, and she also made pickup incredibly easy by dropping them off at my home. I would absolutely book with Crystal again and highly recommend her!”
“Our dog has never been left with a boarder; we were very nervous and it was difficult to leave him. In the first 5 minutes, we knew that John was the person for us. He allowed our dog to approach him rather than the other way around and he seemed very interested and knowledgeable in our dog’s shyness and shortcomings. We received reassuring updates and pictures all weekend that showed us our dog was safe, bring well cared for and having a fun time. We will always use John to care for our dog.”
“Alessandra was so great! I was super nervous using this app for the first time, but feel truly lucky and blessed having found Alessandra! Upon meeting her, I was super comfortable and I felt as though I was leaving my dog in the care of a good friend or trusted family member. She was very attentive and communicative, I appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. I have nothing but good things to say, and absolutely recommend her! She will def be my go-to dog sitter! She’s the best!”
“I want to just thank these two. Followed instructions exactly as stated, gave frequent updates, and provided us with so many pictures and videos. Suki had so so so much fun with Nala and Thena and even got exposure to kittens that were being fostered in their home. I will definitely be a returning client.”
“My 4 year old Nala boarded overnight with Lauren at her place. Lauren was so sweet with Nala and made sure to make her feel at home. My dog has separation anxiety but Lauren made her feel comfortable. I received comforting photo updates frequently and that made me feel less anxious too. Definitely recommend Lauren for your pet sitting needs :)”
“Buddy is always so excited to go visit with Sarah and Jamey C. He so loves it there. He is happy when we pick him up too. It's obvious they take such great care of Buddy. We couldn't be happier leaving Buddy with them.”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our girl! We were heartened to know she was safe with you and your pups and really appreciated the update and photos. Maudy sends her best to you and her poodle pals!”
“Morgan always does amazing with my malinois puppy! Bella is a ball of energy, but always makes taking care of her look easy! She’s literally the puppy whisperer 🤭 Thanks for everything always 🩷”
“Your pets will seriously get the best of care with Taylor and Brian. They both love all pets to bits, and are great at feeding schedules, medicine, and special needs. I don’t think I can recommend them highly enough. I always entrust both my dogs and cats to their care, and have had successful drop ins and boarding.”
“Definitely 💯 recommend Mr. Kyle. He is awesome 👏. He paid attention to detail and everything we asked and said. He played with our Millie and took our her on walks. He treated her like she was his own. Which we loved.We will definitely use his services again and will recommend him. Thank you 😊 Kyle”
“This was my first time using the app and first time having my dog board at someone elses house. Cristin was amazing with communication and sending photos and updates about my dog. This was the first best experience my dog and I had. She is the best person to book if your ever looking for someone to care for your baby. She gives all the attention in the world to them and treats them like a princess. I am so happy my dog felt safe and comfortable he normally always nervouse but cristin made him feel welcomed and loved which made him open up.”
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was just 2 years old, making pet care second nature to me. Over a lifetime of ownership, I have raised everything from dogs and cats to chickens, bunnies, a hamster, and a chameleon. My hands-on experience also includes years of fostering cats and dogs, as well as taking in strays and nursing them back to health. This diverse background has made me highly adaptable to different behaviors, medical needs, and pet personalities. I am an incredibly compassionate, loving person dedicated to a future of helping animals, and I will treat your pets with the exact same deep care and devotion I give my own. Pet care is my absolute top priority, and because I am completely free all the time, I can fully devote 100% of my attention to your pet. My highly flexible schedule means I am available throughout the day and week for consistent feeding, exercise, and companionship. Your pet will never feel lonely, as I am always around to keep them company, maintain their exact daily routines, and ensure they get the dedicated love they deserve I build deep trust with animals by treating them like family and giving them a spoiled, loving environment where they can thrive. My home features a fully fenced yard where pets can safely run, play, and burn off energy. Pets naturally bond with me; my childhood dog used to sleep right above my head and sit at my feet whenever I was at my desk. Whether caring for them in my home or yours, I maintain this exact level of safety, deep devotion, and respect. I strictly follow your specific safety rules, keep environments clean, and will send you frequent photo updates so you always have total peace of mind.
“Estefany was a fantastic dog sitter to my pup Ella! She sent plenty of pictures and updates and was very nice and easy going. She was also super flexible as I shifted the dates & times a few times. Ella had a great time with her pups Zoey & Bella. Would highly recommend to all fellow pet owners!”
