“My dogs looked so happy in all the pics sent. I would def be rebooking. I also loved the service of pick up and drop off. It definitely was a stress free experience ❤️”
“Kylie and Anthony took amazing care of our Adonis! They met his needs and were super accommodating to us as we had unexpected travel delays. Will definitely use their services again. I felt so comfortable leaving our pup in their care. He was taken care of like their own family.”
“Sama was great! I reached out to her in advance about her watching our 2 senior pups while we were in the hospital delivering our son and she was super down to be flexible around his due date and take them at short notice. He came 5 days early and she was able to modify the stay and take them early that day. She sent daily updates and pictures and they were clearly very cozy and happy in her home. 10/10 would recommend.”
“My dog, Cosmo, is always thrilled when he realizes we’re going to Jason’s house! It’s obvious that Jason and his family are experienced with dogs and truly love them, plus Jason is a great communicator and I can always count on pics and updates on Cosmo’s antics while I’m away. Thanks for another great stay, Jason!”
“We boarded our dog Mango with Hana and she took very good care of him! He got a lot of exercise- going on walks, hikes, playing with other dogs. Overall he seems to have had a great time there 😊 She also makes sure to send videos and pictures frequently to keep us updated!”
“Cerita went above and beyond the call of duty when caring for blue. She fed him snacks and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Cerita.”
“20/10!! Savannah took amazing care of our pups!! Especially when it came to giving my one pup her eyedrops daily. She took the best photos and I could tell the pups had a great time! 100% recommend and would have our pups stay with her again!”
“Kiara is truly a second dog mom! If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family and make them feel completely at home, she is the one. She already had everything set up a playpen, bowls, toys so Mylo was comfortable from the moment he arrived. She was extremely accommodating and reassuring, which meant a lot to me since this was my first time being away from my puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day and sent so many pictures, which honestly put my mind at ease. You can tell she genuinely cares and isn’t just “watching” your dog she’s really taking care of them and making them feel like one of her own. Mylo looked like he was having the best time, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him with her. Kiara is so sweet, attentive, and professional. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Our dog Lula had a great time during his boarding stay with Shyrah! She was very communicative and provided photos and updates throughout the booking. Would recommend!”
“Samantha was amazing with my dog! She sent picture updates daily and provided me with updates while I was away (all without asking which I loved!!) I would 100% recommend using her to watch your pets and will be booking with her again.”
“Melanie was great! She sent us updates every day and our pup seemed right at home. It was our first time using Rover so we were a little apprehensive but she put us at ease after meeting her and seeing how comfortable our boy was with her.”
“These two are amazing! I was in a bind and needed my dogs watched last minute, and I am so glad these guys were available to step in. My dogs came home relaxed and happy! They clearly had a great time! Would definitely recommend!”
“Yukiko was fantastic with our little guy, so friendly, gentle, and professional right from the beginning. My mind was at ease knowing that he would be well taken care of as she helped him to get acclimated to her home and her cute little dogs. Yukiko's regular updates and photos were so helpful too!”
“Genevieve was super responsive and took great care of our boy bayou! She sent pictures and videos of him playing, snuggling and relaxing throughout the weekend. Bayou seemed to have had an amazing time and I would definitely book with her again!”
“So sweet and accommodating. Catered to my schedule and adjusted multiple times when I needed to change the dates. Sent updates of Zeke and I felt like he was in good hands from drop off and didn’t have to worry.”
“Kaitlin and her husband were great! They were flexible and gave me regular updates on how my pup was doing during his weeklong stay. Plus, their place looked well-equipped for dog-sitting with plenty of water, outdoor space, a doggy-door, and beds. Thank you!”

“Sara was amazing! Communicative and personable. I felt really safe knowing she was looking out for my cat and I would work with her anytime again in the future.”
“Madalyn was responsive and responsible as usual! Amazing at following instructions and took great photos for updates. Thank you so much for feeding and playing with Bert and keeping him company!”
“Whitney has cared for my two kitties - one of whom needs daily oral medication - numerous times now. I feel so relieved, knowing my babies are in safe and capable hands with her. I had to travel recently for a family memorial service, an already stressful event, and Whitney was able to care for my kitties on fairly short notice, so I was able to be with my family. Whitney definitely has the attentive "mom" energy I want when it comes to my fur-babies. I highly recommend her.”
“Absolutely amazing, Kaleigh took such great care of our cat. He felt right at home instantly, she kept us updated, 10/10! Made us feel so at ease and comfortable knowing our cat was in such great hands!”
“We were so glad we contacted her to take care of my cat since she was very punctual, friendly with my pet. She was in constant contact with me and sent various pictures and videos of my cat. She was overall very flexible and took great care of my cat and in the future we will definitely choose her again.”
“Casandra was amazing with my cats- they slowly warmed up to her over time and she was able to get meds to my extra nervous cat! I know I can look to her when I leave town and not have to worry :)”
About: Where do I begin? When I was in college, I dated a woman who brought home two stunning Abyssinian Egyptian cats. They were the most beautiful babies I had ever seen, and I helped her raise them for many years. I loved them and nurtured them for years. Many years later, I was in a new relationship with a woman who had two Saudi Arabian princesses as her clients. The princesses each bought two Russian Siberian cats to take back to Saudi, but this journey would have required them to put the babies in quarantine for months. That was scary prospect for everyone so they gifted the cats to my girlfriend and I at the time. We each took one and named them Chloe and Bijou. Chloe came home with me and for the last 18 years she has been my special girl. In the beginning, I would bring her down with me to Los Angeles with me every week to visit so her and her sister could have playtime. I got Chloe comfortable traveling, walking around outside with me, taking walks, etc. I don’t think I’ve ever felt closer to another animal. Now at the later end of her life, I’m giving her fluids every other day because she has fourth stage kidney failure, but still she gets hours of cuddles and love every single day. My entire neighborhood knows her because she goes on daily walks without any harness, and we cruise around the neighborhood together so that she can smell all of the different leaves and play in the brush. When you live this long with an animal, there’s a deep bond and depth of understanding that comes from so much time connecting. I’ve always known and been told that I have a special way with animals. Most cats do gravitate towards me, as well as dogs. For me, animals are one of the most special parts of being alive, and they all deserve to be honored and loved.
“Caity is a wonderful cat sitter. Kind, patient communicative, and thorough, she took incredible care of our beloved cat, Kuma, over 2 days. She took the time to get to know Kuma and make him comfortable with her presence. She quickly read his moods and needs, and made Kuma's first extended stint alone as easy as possible for both him and us - going well above and beyond what we had hoped. She sent us multiple fantastic photos and a report on how he was doing each visit - very comforting for two first-time cat owners. We'd work with her again in a heartbeat and are so happy to have found Caity!”
“Susanne took such good care of my kitty, she’s my child and Susanne really cared for her like I would. It’s nice to trust someone and know that they are loving your cat the same way you would! Thank you Susanne for everything!”
“I took a trip quite far away and I was gone for quite a long time. It was so comforting to have Merlyn giving a detailed report every day about my pet while I was gone. When I came home, everything was perfect. She even watered the plants!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. I also volunteered at an animal shelter when I was in high school. My fur baby Leo was my everything so I understand the importance of having a thoughtful, caring, and detail oriented individual watching your pets. I want to make sure that not only your pets needs are met but yours as well. I want to create a comfortable and safe environment for your pets. I work a hybrid schedule and can spend the day with your pet if that’s a need! Although I do not have any cats I do have some experience playing with anxious cats. I know it can take them a while to come around but once they do it’s so rewarding. I am more than happy to check in on your cats and make sure they have some company. I am currently working full time but a hybrid schedule so I can spend the day pet sitting or just do drop ins. I can do potentially do weekends with advance notice. In the clients home I’ll make sure your pets are comfortable. I’ll check in with the client and see if there are specific schedules or routines I should follow. I’ll make sure your pet is safe and create a trusting environment for them.
“We had Le Lee stay overnight with our 2 cats and they loved her! We have one cat who’s really social, loves to play and needs to be played with a lot so he doesn’t cause trouble, Le Lee gave him all the attention he needed and played with him until he was tired. Our other cat is super skittish and mostly hides when people come over. She has been known to hide the whole time when sitters are there but she was out and playing with Le Lee within the same day (amazing because she never does that!) Le Lee sent lots of pictures and updates for us which reassured me that everything was going well, and I wasn’t worried at all. She also was available last minute and made time to come do a meet and greet with us and the cats beforehand. I would highly recommend her for your pets, and I’ll definitely be asking her to stay with our cats again next time! Thank you so much Le Lee!”
“Thanks so much to Genevieve for dropping in to feed and play with Bert on my last minute request, she was able to follow my instructions perfectly and sent me lovely photos and videos of Bert letting me know he was happy, healthy, and looked after. Will definitely be calling on her to drop in again if I need it.”

About: Lifelong dog lovers with a secure yard with real grass, daily walks, toys, and plenty of love. Must be friendly with children and other dogs. I work from home, so our pets are rarely alone. They receive daily attention, walks, playtime, and lots of love from me and my two daughters. We provide a secure fenced yard with real grass, daily walks, playtime, toys, and lots of attention. Our dogs are treated as cherished family members.
“Kylie is very responsive and communicates well, which I appreciate. My dog enjoys his days playing with their 2 dogs and others they care for. I’ll definitely continue using their services.”

About: Hi! My name is Kiara and I am a fully remote worker with no pets and a quiet, clean space to spend time with your baby - focusing on one dog at a time to ensure quality attention and care can be provided. I am an experienced dog owner who lost my baby, Shiloh 🐾🪽🤍, after 13 years. Since Shiloh’s passing, I haven’t felt ready to commit to owning another dog full-time. However, I have been big sister/cousin to other dogs over many years and have loved on various breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am particularly experienced in providing calm, laidback environments for furry family and friends, ensuring both pup and I feel at ease with our time together. My work grants me the ability to love on and closely monitor the dog(s) I choose to spend time with in the comfort of my home. I have the flexibility to not only give lots of TLC, but also take them for walks or play in my backyard. I have a healthy work/life balance that avails the opportunity to make time to brighten a pup’s day, giving you some free time and me some added canine joy. While your pup will have open space in my home to explore, I have a safety gate to block off stairs as needed, and an enclosed indoor play area with bowls, toys, and enough room for you to bring their crate / bed. My fully fenced in backyard makes backyard trips convenient and safe, and my neighborhood offers many sidewalks and parks to safely walk my more active friends. Additionally, there is an enclosed dog park right across the street!
About: As a healthcare professional, I bring a calm, detail-oriented, and safety-first approach to pet care. Beyond caring for my own yellow Lab, Simba, I have spent over seven years professionally and personally watching dogs for family members and friends. I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and trustworthy for your pets. Whether your dog needs medication administration, senior care, energetic play, or just a dependable companion while you are away, I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to their exact needs. I currently work part-time from home, which means I have plenty of flexibility to give your pups constant attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community equipped with an on-site dog park, providing a fantastic environment for daily walks and safe outdoor play to help your dog burn off energy. My home is a clean, secure, and welcoming space, and I am happy to accommodate any specific crating routines or safety preferences your dog requires.
“Mrs. Shyrah is awesome! I brought my 2 dogs - Athena (Rottweiler) and Ava (Chihuahua/Dachshund) - to her care, and despite them both being very shy of new people, I was told they did wonderfully, they were so calm and friendly to her at her home. She let both of them feel welcome and let them acclimate to the environment at their own pace. She often sent me pictures and updated me on how they were, which was so great to see. I will 100% be booking Mrs. Shyrah again in the nearby future for all daycare and overnight stays! She’s awesome and my dogs love her! 💕”
“Todd and Bill are responsible and experienced dog care providers. Accommodating and considerate of their clients, they give me piece of mind that my wonderful dog is in good hands.”
“Rebecca was amazing. I requested the night before, and she made room for Pancake the next day. She had an amazing time playing with the other dogs and kiddos at the house and came home to zonk out. Thank you so much for giving her such fun days!”
“Had a last minute trip and Melanie was able to accommodate us. She was very informative, sent pictures and let us know how she was doing. I would love to use Melanie again when we are in town.”
“Susanee is an excellent dog sitter! She took great care of my dog, Zhuangzhuang, and there was also another Bernese dog for them to play with, which helped Zhuangzhuang burn off a lot of energy. Plus, Susanee has a large, fenced yard, perfect for active pets. Zhuangzhuang had a fantastic day!”
“We have our pup come stay with Genevieve every week! She has 2 super sweet dogs and our puppy has the time of her life playing with them (& a nice large backyard to do so)! We get tons of great photos and videos every stay. Genevieve has great communication and is consistent and reliable. Our minds are at ease knowing Poppy is safe in the best hands. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Sam was great! Even though it rained pretty much the whole day he made sure my crazy pups are playing and having fun. I’ve received great updates including awesome pictures as well! We also scheduled a meet&greet beforehand which shows his professionalism, I’d definitely would recommend sam to anyone.”
“Once again I booked with Aloysius and it was perfect! My pup was so well taken care of, I got great updates, and I always feel at ease knowing he’s in such good hands. Highly recommend and will definitely keep booking again!”

About: I have worked with up to 30 dogs in one room alone and I also have taken care of a lot of dogs, going on frequent walks, feeding, cleaning up poop, it all! I also am very familiar with markers of a possible illness, so I can accommodate that as seen fit. Currently in school Tuesday - Thursday: Tuesday: 9:35am-3:40pm Wednesday: 12pm-4:50pm Thurs: 9:35am-3:40pm But anytime other than that I am available for dog walking, dog sitting, and cat sitting! I love playing with dogs/cats so you can trust that I will keep them entertained, if that's what you wish, and I always like to go above and beyond in anyway I can!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I had 2 labs and a German Shepard growing up. I currently help dog sit and walk my neighbors dogs and my schedule is extremely flexible I currently have an extremely flexible schedule so I can work Monday through Sunday and I am willing to work with anyone on fitting my schedule around their needs. I currently live in a small ADU Unit in a backyard that is fenced off from my neighbors who own two friendly dogs, due to how small my unit is I would prefer to stay at a clients home if I needed to dogsit overnight!
“Tyler has been a God send! I’ve been working two jobs back to back and husband has been deployed so it’s been very helpful having Tyler help me take care of my pups on my long work days. He goes above and beyond to help me out by feeding them, filling their water bottle and taking out the trash. Will definitely recommend Tyler!”
About: I have grown up taking care of dogs my whole life and have plenty of pet care experience. I welcome any size cat or dogs! I am currently full time in the hospital as a student and have plenty of time to care for pets in the evenings and anytime on the weekends. I live right next to a dog park and my apartment is pet friendly. Additionally I do not have any other pets so your companion will have their own space and not need to worry about any other animals
“I booked Audrey for a last minute walk and they were super accommodating! Very experienced with senior dogs, just like what my Laddie needed. Was happy it went so smoothly while I was up in Burbank and got all cute pictures of him.”
About: I’ve been handling dogs of every size 15 years — family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me with walks, feeding, house checks, and daily routines. I’m comfortable with energetic pups that need structure and seniors that need extra patience, slower walks, and special needs. I stick to your instructions, send photo updates, and treat every dog like they’re mine. Hospitality background means I’m reliable, on time, and good at following a plan. I work in restaurant management in San Diego, so my availability is strongest on weekday mornings and early afternoons, plus select evenings and weekends depending on the week. Drop-ins, walks, and house sitting work well around that. I’ll confirm exact windows before you book and keep the same routine every visit so your pet isn’t guessing. I care for pets in your home so their space, crate, feeding setup, and rules stay the same. Doors stay locked, gates stay as you left them, and I follow your instructions on walks, meds, and who they can meet. You’ll get photo updates during the visit. If your dog is crate-trained I’ll use it; if not, I won’t force it.
“Whitney is a true pet lover. She is very thoughtful, communicative, and caring. Our dogs and I look forward to many future visits with her. Many thanks from everyone in our family, Whitney!”
“Rebecca was amazing with our pup Koda, who is a bigger dog. She is very responsive and communicative. We appreciated her help so much she gave us peace of mind during our trip!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 14 years. Friends, neighbors, family, friends of friends, I’ve spent 20+ weekends a year house/pet sitting, and have averaged 3 dog walks a week for the last 3 years. I also have my Dog, Cat, and Pet First Aid Certificate as well as my Pet CPR Training Certificate from American Red Cross. Right now, I’m taking online courses for my profession. In between classes I would like to take breaks by taking care of animals. It’s both a stress reliever and something I love to do. I keep an eye out for any safety concerns or measures that need to take place to ensure the safety of your animals. Safety is key!
“Caity was absolutely wonderful with Louie! She was so attentive and kept us updated on his itchy paws and sensitive tummy. She even went out of her way to apply his paw mousse and found ways to keep him happy and entertained on those super hot days. I really trusted her with Louie and felt so comfortable knowing he was in great hands. Would definitely recommend Caity and will absolutely book her again!”
About: I am a recent Graduate from San Diego State. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for over 10 years to walk, feed, bathe, and just give scratches or cuddles to their fur babies. I have taken care of all ages of animals from puppies to seniors, big or small. Since my own dog passed away two years ago giving back and taking care of others animals has lifted my spirits and made others lives easier:) I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time to watch your pups! My schedule is adjustable so I am free weekends and weekdays as needed. If I do have work I am available anytime before 9 am and after 3 pm or anytime before 4pm and anytime after 9:30 pm, but I only work 3 times a week. I live in an apartment with a Siamese cat who needs to be fed, played with, and who’s litter box needs cleaning that I try to help my roommate out with from time to time. I can easily crate your dog if needed, administer medication or specific dietary food choices for your pup, and complete any other specialized requests you mahave such as grooming or cleaning up after your pet. I have done it all!
About: I’ve cared for dogs in both my home and clients’ homes, offering drop-in visits and regular walks. Though I’m still building experience in puppy training, I approach every dog with patience, consistency, and genuine love for their well-being. I am available 6 days a week from 10/11am to 9/10pm, depending on my schedule changes. I am a part time college student but I am very free and open. Pets are only allowed on the patio when I’m outside with them, ensuring their safety at all times. During walks, I prioritize safety by keeping dogs securely leashed, avoiding high-traffic areas, and staying alert to their surroundings. I’m diligent about following each owner’s rules and routines to provide consistent, reliable care and peace of mind.
About: Hi, all! My name is Grace. I have been taking care and walking dogs my whole life, I but entered the professional pet care industry about 10 years ago. I love taking care of dogs and other animals from all walks of life, as I believe all living things should have the best quality of life that they possibly can. I have also been an athlete for over two decades, and cannot wait to have fun getting active with your animals. I offer jogging/running for the more athletic pups, and a more leisurely stroll for the dogs that like to take life a bit slower, as well as dog-sitting and drop-ins for all animals in between. I can't wait to meet you and your fluffy friends! I work part time in the afternoons and evenings, so I able to take your pets out for a fun activity in the mornings and afternoons until 2pm. I look forward to building a relationship with your furry friends! I do not offer in-home care as I live with roommates and a strictly human-friendly cat, but I love to extend my hospitality to the setting where your pet is most comfortable, their own home. I am pleased to offer safe and fun care while I am in your home, with lots of activity or snuggles depending on the energy levels.
About: I'm the proud parent of a 5y/o high-energy labradoodle (Lenny), and our routine of three walks every day means I understand exactly what dogs need to feel calm, stimulated, and happy. I know how to read a dog's energy, when to up the pace, when to slow down and let them sniff, and when they just need to decompress at their own pace. Before getting my own dog, I spent months researching dog behavior, needs, and communication. I've also worked with a professional dog trainer to understand how to lead a dog confidently and calmly, skills I bring to every walk! Over the years, I've cared for a variety of different dogs for friends, neighbors, and coworkers, so I know how to adapt to different personalities, sizes, and temperaments. I'm a big lover of sniff-friendly walks. Research shows that letting dogs sniff and explore is one of the most powerful ways to lower their stress and keep them mentally healthy, so I always make space for that, whatever the pace of the walk. :) Whether your fur baby thrives on a brisk, energetic walk or prefers a leisurely neighborhood stroll, I'll match their needs and yours. I'm happy to discuss your dog's pace, preferred routes, and any training cues before we get started. Fresh air and walks are a big highlight of my day! I'm happy to be flexible based on the time of day and length of walk your pup needs..I already walk my own dog three times a day, so adding walks for your pup fits naturally into my routine. I keep my schedule intentional, I won't overbook, so your dog always gets my full attention. Your dog's safety is my first priority. I've worked with a trainer to understand leash handling, body language cues, and how to respond calmly in unexpected situations. I always use secure equipment and won't walk more than one unfamiliar dog at a time without discussing it with you first. I treat every dog like a family member. I'm consistent, communicative, and genuinely invested in your dog's wellbeing and happiness!
About: I have over 15 years experience caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up living with large breed dogs in my home and have gained experiencing caring for dogs, cats, and other critters (birds, tortoises, rabbits, ferrets, etc.) all of sizes in my community as a trusted sitter and Humane Society volunteer. I have cared for dogs young and old, puppies who required constant care and seniors with mobility support needs. I am comfortable administering oral or topical medication and bathing dogs upon request and direction. I currently live with a curious 9 year old feline named Luna and am planning for our next four legged friend. Since moving to San Diego from the Bay Area, I’ve missed daily walks with my family’s dog, a Siberian Husky Malamute mix also named Luna, and cherish each opportunity I get to bring that care, joy, structure, and stimulation to a dog’s daily life. Safety, trust, and wellness are my top priorities when engaging with your pet. It is important to me to honor each pet’s unique needs, personality, and boundaries with each meeting. I look forward to being a loving, reliable human in your pet’s life. I have a flexible hybrid work schedule that allows for weekday drop ins and walks. If requesting house sitting during the week, please specify if a constant daytime presence in the home is desired. Trust and reliability are central to my work as a sitter and caregiver. As no two pets or homes are alike, it’s important to me to understand you and your pets’ unique needs and preferences and adapt my care accordingly. I want to keep your pet healthy, happy, and safe, and your home clean and comfortable. I love snapping photos to keep you updated on how your pet is doing throughout our time :)
About: Greetings, I am Ellen (and Zopa), your trusted and experienced dog sitter. Warning: Your dog will be spoilt with kisses, walks and snooggles! My husband and I grew up with dogs all our lives and have taken care of pups ranges from 2 months to 16 years old. I work from home full time so I will be home with your fur bebe during the day as well. We have a fur bebe of our own, Zopa, 9 yo gentle Lab Mix and he is both people and dog-friendly; except for unneutered male pups (sorry, we tried with a meet up, and no go with the Zopa) Zopa is not possessive with his toys; so our doggo toy box is available for your pup as well. We have a large fenced backyard overlooking a canyon; this is where Zopa normally sunbathe and nap during the day or stretch his legs in between naps, snacks and walk breaks. During hot days, air conditioning is available and usually on. (Our late bulldog used to cycle between the AC and covered backyard area in the summer 🥰) We do not discriminate against any dog breed although I require a meet-up prior to booking to ensure everything is good with Zopa, your pup, us and so that you feel more comfortable trusting your fur bebe with us. Nothing make me happier but to give your dog a comfortable stay - a home away from home with loads of love, kisses and pampering while keeping them safe so you can focus on your trip. WFH Full Time - Flexible Schedule I work from home full time. I’m flexible with your pet needs, such as feeding time, walk schedules, heat sensitivity, food allergy, etc. I’ll update you with pics and/or videos as often as you would like; usually around 3 times per day on average. (Including tagging you or your fur baby’s ig account 😊) Weekday Routine Neighborhood walks or park trips 2 times a day are Zopa’s jam; once in the AM and once in the PM. We are early risers especially on weekdays - Zopa and I usually complete our morning rituals including breffast and AM neighborhood walk by 7:30-8 AM. In the summer, early walks will commence to avoid heat and PM walk is usually a little later depending on temperature of the day. (dogs can burn their paws on hot surfaces e.g. asphalt) Our backyard access is available at all times from inside the house so the pups can choose whether to chill inside or outside. Weekend Routine I usually take Zopa for a longer walk, for a chill hike, or dog park fun times in the weekend. (Balboa park, Grape Street Park, Civita Park are some of the parks we normally frequent) Sometimes, Zopa is out shopping with me (Nordstrom sales people are his besties), or to dog-friendly restaurant / breweries around San Diego as well. We usually end the night with chill time in our backyard. Your fur baby will be like my fur baby as well with access to fully fenced backyard, a furry super chill brother, plus safe and fun home 🏠. I prefer boarding in my own home. If your fur baby has heat sensitivity (e.g. bulldogs, Samoyed, husky) we turn on our air conditioner and fans when it’s hot. Let us know what your fur Bebe’s fave things are and their routine; we can adjust accordingly.

“20/10!! Savannah took amazing care of our pups!! Especially when it came to giving my one pup her eyedrops daily. She took the best photos and I could tell the pups had a great time! 100% recommend and would have our pups stay with her again!”
“Our dog Lula had a great time during his boarding stay with Shyrah! She was very communicative and provided photos and updates throughout the booking. Would recommend!”
“Samantha was amazing with my dog! She sent picture updates daily and provided me with updates while I was away (all without asking which I loved!!) I would 100% recommend using her to watch your pets and will be booking with her again.”
“Genevieve was super responsive and took great care of our boy bayou! She sent pictures and videos of him playing, snuggling and relaxing throughout the weekend. Bayou seemed to have had an amazing time and I would definitely book with her again!”
“Kaitlin and her husband were great! They were flexible and gave me regular updates on how my pup was doing during his weeklong stay. Plus, their place looked well-equipped for dog-sitting with plenty of water, outdoor space, a doggy-door, and beds. Thank you!”
“Our Furbaby Miles was with Sam for 11 days while we were in Hawaii. We were concerned leaving him for so long but Miles looked like he was having a great time. Everyday he had lots of other doggie friends to play with and Sam sent the best action photos daily. We feel confident that Sam took great care of our baby boy and we will be using him again.”
“This was our second time trusting Holly with our furbaby! She is always on time, communicates right away, and sends several daily updates so we never have to worry. It puts our minds completely at ease when we are missing our pup. Thank you, Holly, for being an awesome dog sitter!”
“We’ve now completed two trial daycare days and two trial boarding stays with Mark, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Mello has separation anxiety, so we wanted to make sure she truly felt safe and comfortable before her official boarding. Mark has been incredibly patient, thoughtful, and genuinely caring every step of the way. He really goes above and beyond — he even brings Mello along with him when he’s out running quick errands like picking up pizza or McDonald’s, just so she can feel included and never alone. It’s clear he’s not just watching dogs — he’s trying to be their best friend. The biggest and most wonderful surprise: we had arranged trazodone for Mello to help with her anxiety and sleep, but she’s become so comfortable and happy there that she no longer needs it to rest well at night. That means everything to us. We’re heading into her official boarding stay next, and we feel completely confident she’ll have a great time. Thank you, Mark, for caring for Mello like your own!”
“We’ve booked Bill and Todd like a dozen times now and they’re so awesome. Highly recommend them, it’s worth the extra couple of dollars for piece of mind that our fur babies are in good hands.”
