About: I have had dogs all of my life, all breeds and all ages. We are a family of 6, Mom, Dad, our 12 yr old daughter and our 3 fur babies. We dedicate our time to making them happy and live a full life. We have volunteered to foster puppies through the SPCA and pet sit for family as well. Our home is cozy with a good size backyard. All dogs would sleep indoors and have someone with them at all times since We work from home. We currently work from home so there will always be someone home with your pet. We can go for short or long walks a couple times per day and they have full access to to indoor and outdoor throughout the day. We have a fenced backyard and can separate rooms with baby gates if needed. There’s a doggy door in the garage to the backyard and two separate runners. We have a soon to be 5 yr old German shepherd, a 9 yr old rescue chihuahua and our old man a 10 yr old Shih Tzu. They are spayed/neutered and get along great with other dogs. You will have the option to have your pet sleep in the living room alongside our dogs or in a separate room.
“Nicole was amazing! Our dog (Loki) was happy and tail wagging when we came to pick him up. Pics and great communication throughout the visit. Loki can’t wait to hang out with his new friend again!”
“I knew the moment I met Mike and Lynne that my Lily was a great hands. They were so inviting to both of us and warmly greeted us at the sidewalk. They inquired about Lily's routine for eating and taking her allergy medication. Mike sent photos to me daily of their walks, usually with a sweet note as if it was written from my pup. When I picked her up, she was so comfortable in their home as they allowed her have the run of the house. I feel comfortable in saying that I will use them the next time I have plans to go out of town.”
“Velsia was absolutely amazing and our very shy dog loved her so much and almost didn’t want to leave when we went to pick her up. She send numerous videos and photos everyday of our puppy playing and snuggling with her, and having so much fun with the other dogs. It was our first time using rover and we are so happy we found Velsia, we definitely be using her again.”
“This was our 1st time leaving our dogs with someone that wasn’t our family. My sister canceled last minute before our trip. We thought we would have a hard time finding someone to watch our dogs because of their breed *English Bulldogs. We found this wonderful family. Kept communication with us their whole stay with them. They got to know our dog's personalities and behavior. I felt at ease because they truly care for our dogs like they were their own.”
“Marion has taken care of Minty multiple times now and we couldn't be happier with the service. Marion is caring, thoughtful, kind, and we know Minty loves staying with her and her dogs! She is exceptional with communication, responding quickly to any messages and keeping us regularly updated with photos. Minty always returns home happy and healthy (and tired from playing!). We are very grateful to her, and we of course recommend Marion if you are looking for someone to take care of your dog.”
“Beyond happy with Christine! She took care of our baby just as we would! Thoughtful and loving! We hope to have her be Clover’s sitter from now on! Can’t say enough good things!!”
“Jatin is truly amazing! He house trained Deemo so well and I am truly impressed! We dropped off a routy dog and picked up a house trained dog after four days of boarding. Thank you!”
“Citlali is AMAZING! 💯 percent reliable and took care of Krimzen as her own 💚 she even worked with me when my flight was delayed & agreed to drop him off at the designated time we agreed on. 🌟 he had an accident on his blanket and she washed it for me, which she didn’t need to do. I appreciate her taking care of him for the second time! I will continue to go with her, as she’s considerate and adaptable!”
“Jesse and his son took great care of Bailey. I could tell how much Bailey had gotten to walk and sniff by how well he slept after I picked him up. Bailey is used to walking 5 miles a day so it takes a lot to make him that tired.”
“Denise took wonderful care for our Standard Poodle with high standards! I really appreciated the care and attention she gave to ensure he ate. We will definitely be using her again!!”
About: Hi! I'm a reliable and compassionate animal lover who truly understands that pets are family!

Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I want to make sure your babies are safe, comfortable and happy while you’re away.

“Marium was an amazing dog sitter for my dog Bruno! She did a great job walking him and made sure he was well taken care of the entire time. She was also very quick at responding to messages, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I really appreciated that she sent lots of pictures and updates so I could see how Bruno was doing. It was clear she cared about him and made sure he was comfortable and happy. I would definitely recommend Marium to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

About: I’ve always had dog in my life. Having my own dogs as well as working in a vet hospital I have much experience in giving love and care to all pets I meet. I’ve been entrusted many times by family and friends to take care of their pets. My days consist solely of pet care. I have many of my own that I take care of daily and I am looking to branch out in the care I can give. I have a large 2 acre property fenced in and two very friendly dogs who love to host. I am also available for care in your home for walks, playing, or feeding.
About: I’ve been walking friend and neighbors dogs for some time and I am now ready to try sitting a dog or cat myself. I have thought of this for a long time because all the members of my family love all animals. Especially my 13 year old son who really loves dogs and cats alike. I am a full time worker but currently I am working from home. My 13 year old son will be helping to take care of your pet as he is on summer break. I will be available on Sundays,Monday ,Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays for boarding. I will be taking care of your animal in my house and I will care for your pet by walking them, playing with them, letting them do what they like and help feed them. My house also has a fenced back yard so they may play in that to.

About: Caring for animals has always been a part of my life. Growing up with a stepmom who is a veterinary technician, I gained early exposure to caring for animals with a wide range of needs, from healthy pets to those requiring medications, special diets, and extra attention due to medical conditions. I was raised in a home with at least four dogs and seven cats, so I am very comfortable caring for multiple pets with different personalities, routines, and energy levels. My experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize when an animal may need additional care or support. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I strive to provide the same love, attention, and care that I would want for my own animals. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and needing a slower pace, or requires a little extra care, I am committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I have a flexible and responsible schedule. I am able to prioritize morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on the needs of each pet. I am consistent with feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I make sure pets receive attention throughout the day rather than just quick visits. I also plan my week around any bookings I accept so that I can fully commit my time and energy to each pet in my care. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, maintain the pet’s normal routine, and ensure doors, gates, and feeding areas are secure at all times. I treat each home with respect and care, as if it were my own. With my background growing up around animals and veterinary care, I am comfortable recognizing signs of stress or health concerns and responding appropriately. I make sure pets are never left in unsafe situations, and I always provide attentive supervision, affection, and structure so they feel secure while their owners are away.
“Sophia did an excellent job replenishing the wet food in my cats' refrigerated feeders. She also topped off the water fountains. Highly recommend her to handle pet care even when you use high tech equipment like me!”

About: Having grown up in Turkey, a country renowned for its love and care of street cats, I developed a deep connection with these wonderful creatures from an early age. My first feline companion was an Ankara cat who spent his entire life by my side, teaching me the subtleties of cat care and the importance of understanding their unique personalities. For the past two years, I have been the proud mother of two cats, and this experience has only deepened my love and understanding of these fascinating animals. I have become skilled in maintaining their routines, from regular feeding schedules to ensuring their litter is clean and comfortable. But beyond the basics, I truly enjoy spending time with them, observing their behaviors, and engaging them in play that suits their individual temperaments. Understanding that each cat has its own distinct character, I am always eager to get to know new feline friends and cater to their specific needs. Whether you’re away for a short time or an extended period, you can trust that I will provide attentive, loving care to your cats, just as I do with my own.

About: Taking them on walks to burn energy and fress air, cleaning up message they made, are feed, playing with them, and make sure they well cared for while their parents are busy. Have class on Tuesday-Thursday and in college but they aren't super long except Tuesday long and I can't drive. But I have a lot of freed time ( it depends ) Will I follow the owners rules for their house and make sure the dog isn't doing anything that it shouldn't and that everything is ok and that the dog didn't make a mess if so I'll clean it up.
About: I have owned animals of many kinds! From as small as a guinea pig to as big as a horse. Dogs have always been a main source of love and I have almost always had one as a part of my family for as long as I remember. I am patient and kind, and would appreciate the chance to help a family when possible! Pet care will be fitting into my daily life in between family matters. My children are in school from 815AM-5PM as long as nothing comes up or appointments have been made. Caring for pets is more natural than anything. As of now, my family and I care for a guinea pig and fish. We make sure the animals are fed and environments are clean. We are hands on with the guinea pig every day to make sure she has the interaction she needs to stay as healthy as she can.
“We love having Debbie take care of Fuzz! He really enjoys Debbie’s company. After returning home, Fuzz’s coat was much softer and he was less sensitive prior to us leaving. Debbie’s care and attention to detail is phenomenal.”
“Jenna was pleasant and professional when caring for my cat Bella. She sent photos and updates, and I really appreciated that spent the whole 30 minutes trying to find Bella who wouldn't come out of hiding. Jenna made sure that Bella had water on the front porch and left her some treats, confirmed that Bella wasn't out on the street. She even walked around the neighborhood looking for Bella, and saw the cat that Bella doesn't like hanging out on my back fence. This explains why Bella wasn't interested in socializing. Thanks, Jenna, I appreciate your care.”

About: My I have been a cat and a dog owner before. It's been about three years since I've owned a pet for personal reasons. I'm very patient and kind, I would do my very best in caring for any pet I am to watch over no matter what. I live with my grandmother who has a dog herself, so when she's at work or goes out of town I watch over her dog for her. At the moment I have open availability. I'm looking into going to school for the fall semester. I'm in the process of figuring out what I want my career to be. Getting into dog sitting is going to help me determine if I want to work more with animals and make it apart of my career.
“Oscar was amazing with our two cats. They are indoor and outdoor cats so they require a bit more care. He followed all our instructions.

“Velsia is fabulous! So very kind, caring & very clean. It’s been years since I’ve taken my dog to a kennel or a daycare. Velsia made me instantly feel at ease. Great experience, any questions I told her to feel free to call or text. She did send a couple cute pics taking Daisy for a walk & a nap with her blanket ❤️”

“Took my dog for daycare. Gabriel kept me updated all through out the day and sent me lots of pictures. Gave us some good training tips not to mention he includes a free 45 min. training session.

About: Hello, my name is Karina. I truly adore animals and would love to care for your pets. I treat every pet the same way I would want my own pet to be treated with love, patience, and attention. I know how important it is to feel at ease while you’re away, so I always send regular updates to keep you informed on how your pet is doing. Your pet will never feel alone. My mom and sister are also animal lovers, and together we make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. Cats stay indoors in our rooms in a calm, cozy space. Dogs are kept both inside and outside during the day, and we also provide walks. At night, dogs are kept indoors so I always know they are safe. I carefully follow all feeding instructions and any specific routines you provide. I also keep a clean, safe environment, including a well-maintained yard. I currently have one cat, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable. If you have any questions or would like to meet, please reach out. I would love to get to know you and your pet. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to take your pets on walks and play with. When I’m not home my family is with them and also treats them with the same love. (No children in the home) I provide safety to your pets by keeping their litter box hygienic, providing a fenced yard, and monitoring them throughout the entire day. I treat your pets like how I’d like my pet to be treated.
“MacKenzie was GREAT with our GREAT Dane! She was professional, warm, capable and easy to coordinate with. We picked our pup upmat the end of the day and he was happy, exercised, adored a and well fed - all a Dane could ask for! We highly recommend MacKenzie and will hire her again!”
About: I’ve had a dog since I was 10 he was older so I had to learn to be patient with him.Now with a newer puppy I had to find ways to train and help him not be so shy around other dogs As a college student I have my weekends open and I stay at school for holidays! During the week I have a lot of time in between class in order to take care of your loving pet! I always make sure to keep an eye on the pets when outside the back yard or just in the house just to make sure they’re okay. During walks when walking pass other dogs I try to walk across the street from other dog or stray off to the side and wait for the dog to pass us.
“Chris is a super star dog sitter. He dog sitter for Checkers last minute and did a great job watching him. He provided videos and photos too which put our mind at ease when leaving him. We will definitely be using his services again. Thank you so much Chris!!!”
“Wonderful!!! Jill kept me updated on how our boy was doing throughout the day with both wonderful pictures and extremely comforting messages! She expressed how happy they were to have him and that made us feel so good! 10/10!”

About: I have two fur babies of my own and know they’re a lot of work! I love to help other families and learn more from others. I’m currently working part time and am on summer vacation so my schedule is currently very flexible! I can plan accordingly to best meet you. Working with each pet is different. Depending on what routine you have your pet on is what I will adapt to! I know from experience that they need attention and play just like children.
“Jayla was very accomodating taking my dog with my last minute request. She was great- she sent me photos of my dog and updating me the entire day. She also took my dog walking, fed her, made her take naps, and let her play in the dog park. She is very nice and accomodating. ☺️”

I have to say that Carol made me at ease when we spoke when she picked him up and her generous videos what my dog was doing, the walks etc. no doubt, Carol is on my address book of a must to take care of my dog. Love it! Thank you Carol”

“Christie was very sweet to my babies, was prompt and communicated well. I appreciated that she took the time to get to know my pups, home and concerns. I always worry that my pups are just wild and not following our normal and ongoing training with walkers and sitters. However, during our introductions Christie seemed comfortable correcting behaviors like jumping and chewing. The pups were sad when she left which is a great sign to me!”
About: I have taken care of my partners dogs, kind of. I did more of taking them out to go potty and letting them get some energy out. I have two dogs and a cat, they are mostly my parent’s pets. I have taken them on walks and make sure they have food and water, I made sure the cat had food and water. I am on summer break from university, so I have different time available but prefer from 11am-3pm more of mid mid-day. I would not mind an earlier time or a bit later. I can be flexible with my time. I make sure the leash and harness is on good. I make sure that they have some water when going out and when out with the pet, so they stay hydrated but making sure it’s not to much, I know some pets over drink then throw up. One of my partners dog does that, so I have to make sure it’s not to much. I will make sure they have the right amount depending on size. I will have a portable doggy water container and poop bags. I make sure to be on the side walk and nowhere near where a pet can get hurt, and avoid working areas like construction of course.
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life. Friends have trusted me to walk, feed and play with them for many years. I recently lost two of my dogs, so my house feels empty and can sure use some tail wagging energy. I’m currently going to school full time, with many of my classes being online, I have plenty of time between classes to give your fur baby love. I have a fenced yard, with plenty of room to run around and play. I love to go on walks twice daily which can last about 30-55 minutes, your fur baby will love them too!
“Jessica is a great dog walker! She’s always on time, sends me adorable photos of Penny, and puts her leash and collar back where they belong. I really appreciate that she also takes the time to play with our senior golden — it means a lot. Highly recommend!”

“Chrystina did an amazing job on her first solo walk with our dogs, especially with Lola, who can be a bit timid and nervous with new people. Her patience and dedication were truly impressive—she took the time to earn Lola’s trust and even found creative ways to get her comfortable. We really appreciate how attentive and caring she was, keeping us updated throughout and ensuring both dogs were happy and well cared for. Thank you, Chrystina, for going above and beyond—we’re very grateful!”

The services I will provide like sitting and boarding will be at your cat or dog's home. As a bonus; I can water your plants🌱
About: My I have been a cat and a dog owner before. It's been about three years since I've owned a pet for personal reasons. I'm very patient and kind, I would do my very best in caring for any pet I am to watch over no matter what. I live with my grandmother who has a dog herself, so when she's at work or goes out of town I watch over her dog for her. At the moment I have open availability. I'm looking into going to school for the fall semester. I'm in the process of figuring out what I want my career to be. Getting into dog sitting is going to help me determine if I want to work more with animals and make it apart of my career.
About: I have owned animals of many kinds! From as small as a guinea pig to as big as a horse. Dogs have always been a main source of love and I have almost always had one as a part of my family for as long as I remember. I am patient and kind, and would appreciate the chance to help a family when possible! Pet care will be fitting into my daily life in between family matters. My children are in school from 815AM-5PM as long as nothing comes up or appointments have been made. Caring for pets is more natural than anything. As of now, my family and I care for a guinea pig and fish. We make sure the animals are fed and environments are clean. We are hands on with the guinea pig every day to make sure she has the interaction she needs to stay as healthy as she can.
About: Ive been an animal lover since I was little, Ive had all types of animals growing up and absolutely love caring for all pets. My roommates travel often and I take care of their senior dog Riley, he is deaf and blind so he needs a lot of extra TLC. I am local to south salinas, I have my own business and make my own schedule. I have my office 3 mins away from home so have the flexibility. Commutation is the most important thing for me, making sure you have updates about your pet and making sure they feel safe and protected weather it’s on a walk or home sitting.

About: I’ve loved caring for pets for years and have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I was the primary caregiver for a family friend’s dog for over a year during COVID and have also looked after my uncle’s dog during multi-week stays. I make sure every dog gets plenty of walks, park time, exercise, and socialization, along with feeding, pee pad changes, and a clean, happy home. I’ve also cared for about five cats over the years and currently have a cat of my own. I know how to keep cats happy, healthy, and comfortable with feeding, litter box care, and plenty of gentle attention. I love spending time with animals, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am currently attending hartnell college as a full time student and athlete. As every semester changes due to classes, my practice schedule is always consistent. I am unavailable from 12-3 everyday, other than that I am completely available depending on my class schedule! I am available on Saturday all day, Sunday I am available after 10am. When I care for pets in a clients home, I like to treat their space and the pets as if it’s my own. I follow each pets routine closely, I make sure feeding is on time, fresh water is provided, and giving a lot of affection. For dogs I make sure to take daily walks, visit parks or local areas for exercise and socialization if that’s what the dog feels comfortable with, and to make sure they get a good amount of stimulation and play time. For cats I maintain litter boxes, cozy and warm resting spots, and prioritize spending quality time playing or even just keeping them company so they’re not alone. I also keep the home clean and organized, tidy up any messes, and make sure the environment stays safe and comfortable for the pets. My goal is always to help pets feel happy, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away.
About: Hello, my name is Karina. I truly adore animals and would love to care for your pets. I treat every pet the same way I would want my own pet to be treated with love, patience, and attention. I know how important it is to feel at ease while you’re away, so I always send regular updates to keep you informed on how your pet is doing. Your pet will never feel alone. My mom and sister are also animal lovers, and together we make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. Cats stay indoors in our rooms in a calm, cozy space. Dogs are kept both inside and outside during the day, and we also provide walks. At night, dogs are kept indoors so I always know they are safe. I carefully follow all feeding instructions and any specific routines you provide. I also keep a clean, safe environment, including a well-maintained yard. I currently have one cat, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable. If you have any questions or would like to meet, please reach out. I would love to get to know you and your pet. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to take your pets on walks and play with. When I’m not home my family is with them and also treats them with the same love. (No children in the home) I provide safety to your pets by keeping their litter box hygienic, providing a fenced yard, and monitoring them throughout the entire day. I treat your pets like how I’d like my pet to be treated.

About: I have had dogs all of my life, all breeds and all ages. We are a family of 6, Mom, Dad, our 12 yr old daughter and our 3 fur babies. We dedicate our time to making them happy and live a full life. We have volunteered to foster puppies through the SPCA and pet sit for family as well. Our home is cozy with a good size backyard. All dogs would sleep indoors and have someone with them at all times since We work from home. We currently work from home so there will always be someone home with your pet. We can go for short or long walks a couple times per day and they have full access to to indoor and outdoor throughout the day. We have a fenced backyard and can separate rooms with baby gates if needed. There’s a doggy door in the garage to the backyard and two separate runners. We have a soon to be 5 yr old German shepherd, a 9 yr old rescue chihuahua and our old man a 10 yr old Shih Tzu. They are spayed/neutered and get along great with other dogs. You will have the option to have your pet sleep in the living room alongside our dogs or in a separate room.
“Nicole was amazing! Our dog (Loki) was happy and tail wagging when we came to pick him up. Pics and great communication throughout the visit. Loki can’t wait to hang out with his new friend again!”
“I knew the moment I met Mike and Lynne that my Lily was a great hands. They were so inviting to both of us and warmly greeted us at the sidewalk. They inquired about Lily's routine for eating and taking her allergy medication. Mike sent photos to me daily of their walks, usually with a sweet note as if it was written from my pup. When I picked her up, she was so comfortable in their home as they allowed her have the run of the house. I feel comfortable in saying that I will use them the next time I have plans to go out of town.”
“This was our 1st time leaving our dogs with someone that wasn’t our family. My sister canceled last minute before our trip. We thought we would have a hard time finding someone to watch our dogs because of their breed *English Bulldogs. We found this wonderful family. Kept communication with us their whole stay with them. They got to know our dog's personalities and behavior. I felt at ease because they truly care for our dogs like they were their own.”
“Marion has taken care of Minty multiple times now and we couldn't be happier with the service. Marion is caring, thoughtful, kind, and we know Minty loves staying with her and her dogs! She is exceptional with communication, responding quickly to any messages and keeping us regularly updated with photos. Minty always returns home happy and healthy (and tired from playing!). We are very grateful to her, and we of course recommend Marion if you are looking for someone to take care of your dog.”
“Jatin is truly amazing! He house trained Deemo so well and I am truly impressed! We dropped off a routy dog and picked up a house trained dog after four days of boarding. Thank you!”
“Citlali is AMAZING! 💯 percent reliable and took care of Krimzen as her own 💚 she even worked with me when my flight was delayed & agreed to drop him off at the designated time we agreed on. 🌟 he had an accident on his blanket and she washed it for me, which she didn’t need to do. I appreciate her taking care of him for the second time! I will continue to go with her, as she’s considerate and adaptable!”
“Denise took wonderful care for our Standard Poodle with high standards! I really appreciated the care and attention she gave to ensure he ate. We will definitely be using her again!!”
“Marium was an amazing dog sitter for my dog Bruno! She did a great job walking him and made sure he was well taken care of the entire time. She was also very quick at responding to messages, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I really appreciated that she sent lots of pictures and updates so I could see how Bruno was doing. It was clear she cared about him and made sure he was comfortable and happy. I would definitely recommend Marium to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Debra is amazing! My dog Winter felt right at home the moment she arrived. Debra has a very large backyard for dogs to roam around and play. Her home was very clean, inviting and accommodating. She took my dog for several walks throughout the day and sent several pictures and updates. Debra is someone I trust completely and will always count on her for the future. I highly recommend Debra.”
About: I’ve always had dog in my life. Having my own dogs as well as working in a vet hospital I have much experience in giving love and care to all pets I meet. I’ve been entrusted many times by family and friends to take care of their pets. My days consist solely of pet care. I have many of my own that I take care of daily and I am looking to branch out in the care I can give. I have a large 2 acre property fenced in and two very friendly dogs who love to host. I am also available for care in your home for walks, playing, or feeding.
“Bridget did a great job with Buddy. Buddy loved hanging with his new friends, even her 2 kitty's. I received daily updates with pictures. We would engage Bridget's services again.”
“Sarah was attentive and sweet. I happen to have a pup who does really well off leash and loves running; they catered to that aspect allowing my dog to run often as well as explore to different locations they went to throughout the stay. I received pictures and videos and, to be completely honest, am trying to plan another vacation soon because pup enjoyed their time so much with Sarah. Thank you. I'm grateful to know there is now a person who I will be a 'regular' with.”
“This was the second time my puppy Bruno stayed with Grace and Claudio! They were awesome sitters over the weekend. Plenty of updates and they stick to what Bruno likes- playing fetch and running around! I love that they give feedback about how Bruno behaves as it gives me the sense of security that he is being well watched/ taken care of.”
About: I grew up around horses and learned to respect all living creatures large and small. We always had pets at home and they gravitated towards me because I like to play and have fun with them. I had a cat for 16 years in my youth and loved her so much. Kitties will always have a special place in my heart. I have had many pets over the years and my most recent were two rescue shepherd/husky mix wonderful family members. They were brother and sister and both passed away. I do not currently have any pets of my own right now. Pet sitting is the joy of my life, and I cannot imagine a day without walking, playing and cuddling with furry friends. I am home all day and available to spend quality time with your fur babies! I am extremely flexible and am here for all of your pet’s needs. I like as much information about the pet as you'd like to give me. Whatever your pet needs, I will provide for them. I have lots of experience with anxious dogs and senior dogs and cats. I welcome any information you can provide to help your pet feel comfortable.
“Samantha was very active with Zoe and kept me informed throughout her entire stay. Her flexibility made my trip stress free and it was nice knowing Zoe was doing good the whole time. I am so grateful to have found her and will use her again in the future.”
“Tracey takes such good care of our girl Ruby. Ruby is always happy to see Tracey when we drop her off and she is always happy and relaxed when she comes home which tells me she is comfortable with Tracey and had a good time. Ruby has daily walks and play time outside and inside too. Tracey sends regular updates/photos and we received a video on this trip as well. I never worry about Ruby when she is with Tracey. Tracey is the absolute best and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and professional dog sitter to care for your pets.”
