“Gloria is truly amazing as always. My dog loves her so much whenever she gets to stay with her. I have a standard poodle so her care routine involves some maintenance specific to her breed, Gloria always provides above and beyond care! We ran into some trouble getting home at our original planned time, and Gloria was generous/flexible with extending our boarding time. The updates she send are informative and adorable! I will always return to my favorite sitter whenever my pup needs some love and care!”
“I felt good about leaving Max with Erin. Her home is clean and free of potential hazards. There is plenty of space for my dog to roam in a fenced in environment and a cool place to potty in the back and sides of her home. She kept me thoroughly updated through out the day with pictures and messages. I would use her services again.”
“My dogs were so well taken care of! I received pictures daily as well as updates on how they were behaving and if Woody took his medicine. They can be a little shy but I could see in the pictures they were cuddling with Daniella and her husband every day. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“She took very good care of my senior dog Fiyero. She always update me and send me pictures of feeding times in the morning and afternoon and also during bedtime getting him ready to sleep. Highly recommended to take care of your fur babies.”
“Don was great with our dog Jack when we had to go out of town for a few nights! He sent photos to keep us updated and was very accommodating when traffic delays meant we were late for our arranged pick up time. Don clearly loves dogs and has a great approach with them. We'll be back in touch whenever we have to travel again.”
“Brandon was wonderful with my dog during an overnight stay. He provided great communication and regular updates, which gave me peace of mind. It’s clear he’s both knowledgeable and kind—my dog was in excellent hands.”
“I have to say that Dijanna is the best! She took super good care of my dogs while I was away and sent me plenty of updates about them. I’m so very very grateful for her. I sincerely wish her a magnificent New Year of complete success in her every endeavor!!”
“Joan and her husband Phil are wonderful. They took amazing care of Parker. Joan sent daily updates throughout his stay. It was his first time away from home and he had a great time. Highly recommend Joan”
“Wow! What a great time Bee had with Brandon. He is obviously a big dog lover and gave our very young and energetic and, yes, mischievous pup full time attention. She came home so tired and calm. We got frequent communications so we never had to worry. We appreciate the flexibility and devotion shown by Brandon, and will definitely call on him next time we are in the Palm Springs area.”
“Katie took wonderful care of my special needs dog in a short notice situation. She was very easy to communicate and was flexible with me on pick up and drop off. She sent me lots of pictures during my dog's stay and checked in with me often. I can't recommend her enough! Most people would not open their home to a medical special needs dog but Katie did without a second thought. Thanks again for the wonderful experience. So grateful to have found you”
“This was the first time we've left our Labradoodle, Dexter, since getting him a year ago, so we were plenty apprehensive. Our worries were immediately calmed down as Maggie sent pictures and videos each day! She is also amazing at responding quickly to texts, so there were never any anxious moments on our part. Not only was there a fenced back yard for Dexter to run in, but Maggie took him on walks/jogs which he no doubt enjoyed. We hope she is available the next time we need to board him!”
“I can’t even begin to describe how wonderful our experience was with Mark! He is exactly who you want to care for your dog. Mark is attentive, thoughtful, empathetic, and caring. And his dog training skills really help. We have a 5-year-old Akita who is a can be full of energy and can be a recipe for disaster. Mark was incredible with her! He goes above and beyond to make sure your dog has everything they need and has fun doing it. He was patient, loving, gave her so much attention, including taking her out for walks thru centennial trail and the river nearby all the while kept us updated with pics and texts. Unagi had an amazing time with Mark, and I could tell she had a great time when we returned to pick her up. Highly recommend him to others.”
“Jackson and his home was a great and safe place for us to leave our puppy, Monty. Monty was tired and happy when we came to collect, which was the sign of a great time! Jackson and his family are well versed in all things dog care and both super responsive and accommodating to all timing needs. Would throughly recommend to anyone looking to leave their four legged children in good hands.”
“Edith and her daughter were awesome!!! They were very easy to talk to and was the most accommodating!!! I would ask them to take care of our dog again next time we are in the area! Thank you again!!!”
“Absolutely the best. I have a difficult dog, and Candace was extremely confident and loving with her. I have full peace of mind when she's watching my dog. Thank you Candace!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We can’t thank Holly enough for stepping in at the last minute to take care of our pets! She was incredibly understanding and accommodating with our sudden trip, and her communication was excellent from start to finish. We really appreciated how attentive she was to all of our pets’ needs and how she kept us updated with messages and photos—it gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Everything was perfectly handled, and our pets were clearly happy and well cared for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter!”
“Cesar is amazing!! He took care of my three cats while we were out of town for our wedding, over the past 9 days our kitties were in great care with Cesar’s drop in visits! He went above and beyond our expectations. Truly kept the litter boxes clean and swept around them! He changed their food and water and made sure they were safe! Cesar is trust worthy and respectful! He kept us updated throughout the whole process, sending us lots of loving photos and even keeping us updated on the weather! He is soo kind and truly loves animals, we have gold fish here too, even thou we were feeding them pebbles with the automatic feeder he noticed the fish and added some bounce flacks when he visited (out of the kindness of his heart). SO NICE! If you are looking for someone to care for your pets, I HIGHLY recommend Cesar he is very knowledgeable and caring, he followed every step I gave him and went beyond that. He even offered to have a free meet and great so the animals could get to know him! SO THOUGHTFUL. unfortunately my tight schedule wouldn’t allow it but, it’s the thought he puts in that counts! Thank you so much Cesar you are a true blessing to us and our animals! Until next time! 💕”
“Chloe did a great job taking care of my furbabies! I am a super helicopter pet parent who hates leaving her pets, so I have very high standards. Since we work from home, our pets are used to having someone with them 24/7 and are very socialized, so I didn't want them feeling lonely. Chloe completely understood and stayed in our house for over 2 weeks to take care of the little ones. She sent regular photo updates that showed her playing with the cats and providing enrichment for them. The regular check-ins were so comforting to me! She also left the house clean and tidy for us to come home to. She responded promptly any time I texted her, and was extremely courteous. All in all, it was a great experience and we will definitely book Chloe again.”

“Gloria was wonderful with my dog and took such great care of her during her stay! My pup can be anxious in new places, but she came home calm and clearly well-loved. Gloria was very kind and sent regular updates throughout my dog’s stay, which gave me peace of mind. Her husband was also kind enough to help when I dropped off and picked up my dog. I appreciated how attentive Gloria was to my senior dog’s needs, including her medication schedule. My dog means the world to me, and I would absolutely trust Gloria with her again! 🩷”

“Natalie watched our Siberian Husky mix twice while we explored Joshua Tree Nat’l Park. She was awesome to work with and took great care of our older dog, who is on a few meds. We received several pictures each day and Blance was clearly happy when we picked her up and super excited when we dropped her off the second day, so we know she had a great experience.”
“Cici was great and extremely friendly. She checked in throughout the day and updated me on how things were going with my pup. I could tell she took great care of him as he was relaxed after picking him up.”
“Joan is wonderful. As soon as we met her and her husband, we knew that Winston would be in good hands. We would leave him again with her in a heartbeat! Highly recommend. Thank you Joan for taking such wonderful care of Winston 💕”
About: I have been watching over pups of all ages from a few weeks old to senior pup ages giving them all the cuddles, exercise, and snacking of fruits and vegetables to keep them on their toes. There's always time to relax and rest when I close up the curtains and change the lights to a nice dog cartoon or video for them to fall asleep to or cool down from the sun. I have been a foster parent for pups with my husband for about 2 years and never looked back, we have fostered over 12 pups of all ages to families all over the valley and continue to do so until we move to Oregon. I make home made food and treats depending on what I have available at the moment and provide them with different varieties of snacks that are healthy for them. I give them my attention and my fur babies get to play and socialize with everyone welcoming everyone and sharing all their toys🥰 I am currently staying home while my husband works and I do insta cart shopping depending on the day. And looking into getting my masters online so I have plenty of time to give them the attention they need. I have crates and gates depending on the pups needs. I have my home set up to section off pups if they need time to relax or go and play with others without bothering anyone else.
“Brandon is an excellent caregiver for pets. He's responsive, reliable and most important. My dogs really liked him and felt comfortable and safe. Thank you so much we appreciate it.”

I approach each animal according to their unique personality and their owner’s caretaking style.

About: I love dogs and grew up having all types of breeds but I am any pet friendly. I have had snakes, tortoises, a bunny and now I have a cat! My dog knowledge comes mostly from personal experience that I have optained from my lifetime of being a pet owner. At the moment I don't have a doggy in my life but I need one. I would love to practice my trading, playing and dog walking until I can add a dog to my life but in the meantime I'll enjoy the company of any doggy that will let me. My schedule is very free and flexible. I work part time and do some volunteer work so even though I'm available 90 percent of the time knowing ahead of time what pet might need some attention would be very helpful. Now I have a fenced yard. It's small but there is a park just down the street. To keep the pet in my home, it would need to be crate trained since I have a cat indoors (at least I can know that both pets are safe. And if it's at a clients home then whatever works for the pet and owner. That may be preferable but it all depends

He was patient, loving, gave her so much attention, including taking her out for walks thru centennial trail and the river nearby all the while kept us updated with pics and texts. Unagi had an amazing time with Mark, and I could tell she had a great time when we returned to pick her up. Highly recommend him to others.”
“Jackson and his home was a great and safe place for us to leave our puppy, Monty. Monty was tired and happy when we came to collect, which was the sign of a great time! Jackson and his family are well versed in all things dog care and both super responsive and accommodating to all timing needs. Would throughly recommend to anyone looking to leave their four legged children in good hands.”
“Absolutely the best. I have a difficult dog, and Candace was extremely confident and loving with her. I have full peace of mind when she's watching my dog. Thank you Candace!”
“The day before drop off our dog seemed to be limping a bit so playtimes needed to be more gentle , we got pics and or videos daily , she was flexible with the times for drop off pick up and willing to meet in person before picking her. Our dog was not limping when we got him 4 days later and was doing much better, was clean and happy and would definately book again if we need help. Plus the price was affordable and reasonable”

“Georgia was amazing to our little pippa! Our baby is usually very shy and timid and it seems like she made herself at home with Georgia. We appreciate all the love she got while we were gone. Wish we lived closer to have her again:)”
“Christine took very good care of my dog, Mika. She sent regular updates with photos, and was quick to respond to my check-ins as well. Overall, very positive experience. Thank you!”
“Diana was great with my baby Smokey. She wasn't bothered by him being anxious and nervous during drop off. I appreciated the picture she sent me of Smokey during his visit. I will book with her again!”
About: I recently inherited my aunt‘s dog after she passed away. She wanted me to have Buddy that’s his name (he is the dog in my profile pic♥️)because I am so good with animals. He is a senior dog and I’ve rejuvenated him. We walk every day, I make him fresh, fresh, food I play with him. He’s super happy and it’s like he’s got a second lease on life a pep in his step. This is what I can provide to dogs that I watch or sit or walk. Caring loving attentive care until their mom or daddy returns.🐶 I wake up around 5:30 am and give my dog a walk. I make sure we are up bright and early so that we can get a walk in before the pavement is too hot for him. Then I come home and feed him his breakfast. Throughout the day we s play or if I leave and when I get back I will chase him around our couch. Buddy loves that! I am very gentle and follow the rules to a T. If there’s any instructions or preferences on treatment or care for the animal, always make sure that’s my number one priority.
“Tanya was an excellent choice for our 2 pups. They boarded at her home for 11 nights. She sent awesome pictures frequently. They settled in quickly and were super calm when we picked them up. We highly recommend Tanya and will use her services again when we return to the area next year.”
“Tammy is so nice. She got back to me immediately when my previously arranged dog sitter fell through. She shared lots of pictures and updates while we were gone, which absolutely enabled me to fully enjoy my time away. She also was very understanding when both of our return flights were delayed for a total of about 5 hours! I would recommend her and would definetely love to use her service again.”
