About: I’m a professional dog trainer with a ton of love and experience with all dogs, well over 1,000 different dogs trained, walked and cared for! I'll show an abundance of compassion for your dog as if they were my own pet. Having fun, playing, and safety will be high priorities on my list during their stay. Your dog will never feel alone while left in my care, as they will be my priority while boarding with me. I have an extraordinary amount experience boarding and caring for all kinds of dogs being a trainer and a former kennel specialist, and overall dog lover! I currently train dogs so dogs are most of what I think about! I train from my house, and Taylor my schedule to make sure I am home all day with your pups! While training, giving treats, or feeding, I seperate all dogs, to ensure everyone is safe. Plenty of rubs, hikes or walks catered to the pups ability, and care like they are apart of my family! Plus a ton of chill, relaxing times. I will make sure to send plenty of updates and pictures!
“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”
“Chengcheng did a great job of sending text updates and photos daily of our pug. She is very easy to communicate with through text and we could tell that she really cares for your family as if it were her own. Highly recommended!”
“Anh and William are excellent sitters. They were very communicative and sent photos of my dog and were very flexible with our last minute travel changes. Highly recommend!”
“Tiffany and her family were perfect for our high energy dog! They have two energetic dogs of their own and our dog, Winston, gets lots of play time with them and lots of balls to fetch from the family! Our dog also LOVES the pool and got to swim in their pool twice over a three night stay, and Tiffany was gracious to bathe him afterwards and even give him a life jacket so he could enjoy it with their kids. We love that Winston is having his own vacation while we’re away, and will continue to use Tiffany for our upcoming stays!”
“Laura was so kind and patient with our puppy. She was great at updating us and even more great at taking care and giving extra attention to our puppy, Angel! We appreciate you so much Laura.”
“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
About: Hi! I'm Nicole, a lifelong animal lover with seven years of experience working at Saugus Animal Hospital and over 10 years of pet sitting for friends and family. I grew up with large Alaskan Malamute/Huskies and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I work primarily from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. My husband also works from home several days each week, so your dog will rarely be left alone. My home has a secure front and backyard, and my two resident cats are very accustomed to having dogs visit. We live in a neighborhood with beautiful shaded paseos and a nearby park, making it easy to enjoy safe and comfortable walks. I'm also a lifelong cat owner and currently have two sister cats who are the center of my world. For cat owners, I offer drop-in visits in your home so your cat can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I'm especially good with shy or nervous cats and enjoy taking the time to earn their trust at their own pace. My veterinary experience taught me how to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort, and I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs. After walks and hikes, I always check dogs for foxtails and debris, and I'm happy to arrange a bath with owner approval if needed. Whether I'm caring for your dog in my home or visiting your cat in theirs, my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and reliable experience while keeping you updated with photos and messages along the way. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work primarily from home. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, companionship, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I typically like to take dogs out for walks early in the morning before the weather gets too warm and again in the evening as temperatures cool down. Depending on your dog's energy level and preferences, we can enjoy neighborhood walks along our shaded paseos, visits to the nearby park, or even hikes on local trails. On the occasional day that I need to go into the office for a few hours or attend a work event, I coordinate my schedule whenever possible with my husband's work-from-home days so that your dog continues to receive attention, companionship, and timely potty breaks. My goal is to maintain your dog's normal routine as closely as possible and make their stay feel like a home away from home. I care for every pet as if they were my own family member. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where your dog feels relaxed and at home. My home has both an enclosed backyard and front yard, providing secure outdoor space for potty breaks and supervised play. Dogs are welcome on the couch and bed if that's allowed in their home, as I want to maintain the routines and comforts they're accustomed to. With seven years of experience working at Saugus Animal Hospital, I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall well-being so I can quickly identify if something seems off. Safety is especially important to me during walks and outdoor adventures. After walks or hikes, I carefully check dogs for foxtails, burrs, and other debris that can become lodged in their paws, ears, or fur. I also follow all owner instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise restrictions, and special care needs. I provide regular photo updates and communication throughout your pet's stay so you can feel confident knowing they're happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention. If needed, I can also take dogs to a self-service dog wash for a bath (with owner approval) before they head home.

“We had a great experience with Isabella as our dog sitter! She took our dog on walks and played with him, and he came home happy and well-rested. We could tell he had a wonderful time. We definitely want to book her again! Highly recommend! 🐶✨Thank you Isabella!!”
“Fiona is fantastic; she is very patient; Rocky had a lovely time with her. She took him for walks several times and regularly sent photos with updates. I'm sure any dog will be happy with her.”
“Stacey took amazing care of our beagle. She gave him lots of attention and played with him. He just loves her! She sent daily pictures of him. We feel so fortunate to have found Stacey and highly recommend her!”
“Ryan was amazing and was able to watch my pup last minute. He was very communicative, and sent photo updates throughout his time with my pup. He was also so kind and helped me carry our things to my car. Thank you so much Ryan! 10/10 recommend!”

About: Hi I'm Nita, your purr-fect solution for cat care! With 17 years of experience in cat sitting and one year of fostering, I'll quickly learn and understand the unique needs and quirks of your cat. From cuddle sessions to playtime and meticulous litter box maintenance, I provide attentive and personalized care to ensure your kitty feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Contact me today if you have any questions.
“Tami is a wonderful sitter! Our pup Shadow is skittish with new people, but she’s patient, calm, and comfortable with him. Communication is easy and frequent - we really appreciate her and will absolutely keep using her services.”
“Erich did a great job taking care of our 2 cats while we were traveling! Our cats have pretty different energy levels and he did a good job giving both of them attention and sharing updates when checking in.”
About: I currently have the runt of a litter, a crazy little lady with stomach issues and a LOT of energy. Raised her from 8 weeks old and have worked with both long hair and short hair cats. I've also worked with cats in mixed animal homes and with sensitivity to certain stimuli. Currently I am also employed by a farm and care for barn cats.
“Gabby is simply… the best! Here’s why. I’ve never used a pet sitting service before, but I was going on a 5-day vacation and needed someone to care for my recently-adopted cat. Agonizing over what to do, my daughter recommended Rover. Once on the website, I considered a few people, but Gabby’s profile stood out—a 4.9 rating, over 200 reviews, nearly 50 repeat clients, a self-described “loving and responsible pet sitter,” AND she lived nearby. Once I contacted her, she agreed to a meet & greet at no charge. It went great, so I booked her. Every single day she was on-time, sent several pictures, and wrote a summary about the the visit. My messages to her were promptly responded to. I left very specific instructions, and all were followed. On top of everything, she’s thoughtful, funny, genuine, and caring. I will definitely be another of her repeat clients. Thank you, Gabby!”
About: I grew up with cats and kittens and have always found my way back to kitty sitting. I am very happy to cat and kitten sit, whether they're a lap cat or fiercely independent. More than happy to feed, play with, keep them company and be on litter duty when watching them for extended periods of time.
About: I've had two dogs and a cat in my lifetime. I also have 2 years of pet sitting experience for some of my family friends! I have trained my two dogs and can spend hours playing with animals! I am currently unemployed, and searching for work, so my schedule is flexible, and I am looking for ways to make some extra money! I thought this would be an excellent way. I have an apartment, but it's well kept and has plenty of space for animals to play around. There is also a grassy area outside for dogs to play. As for a clients home, I will always make sure to keep it clean and avoid touching anything that isn't meant for me or your beloved pet.
“Kiana was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Sumo! She kept us updated throughout the entire time and even helped clean him when he got poop on his butt. We really appreciate that she went above and beyond for our dog. We couldn't be happier, thank you Kiana! 😊”
About: I've lived with cats my entire life and currently share my home with two female cats who are sisters and absolutely spoiled. Cats have always held a special place in my heart, and I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. One thing pet owners often tell me is that I have a special talent for winning over shy or timid cats. I enjoy taking the time to earn their trust, allowing them to approach at their own pace, and creating a calm environment where they feel safe and comfortable. Whether your cat is outgoing and playful or prefers quiet companionship, I'll meet them where they are and provide the attention they need. My seven years of experience working at Saugus Animal Hospital gave me valuable experience handling pets of all temperaments and recognizing signs that a pet may be stressed, uncomfortable, or not feeling well. I'm attentive to details such as eating habits, litter box activity, hydration, behavior changes, and overall well-being. When caring for cats in their own home, I understand how important it is to maintain their routine and environment. I provide fresh food and water, litter box cleaning, playtime, affection (if they want it!), and regular updates so you can feel confident knowing your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Whether I'm caring for a confident social butterfly or a cat who's more likely to hide under the bed, my goal is always the same: to make them feel safe, respected, and loved.
About: Hi! My name is Mary, and caring for animals is truly part of who I am. With over 15 years of experience, I understand that every cat has a unique personality and needs a calm, patient, and respectful approach. I provide a quiet, safe, and loving environment where your cat can feel comfortable and stress-free. I take the time to build trust at their own pace, always respecting their space and routine. I have experience caring for cats, including administering oral medication when needed. I make sure they are well-fed, their space is clean, and they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. For me, this is more than a job—it’s something I do with love and dedication. I treat every cat as if they were my own. I would love the opportunity to care for your cat and give you peace of mind.
About: I have owned cats for nearly my entire life, and have helped take care of family/friends cats many times before. I have experience with cats ages 0-16, and am willing to give medication if needed though I do only have previous experience giving dogs medication including insulin shots.
“My husband and I hired Kimberly a second time for an entire week while we were traveling. I knew from the first time that my 2 cats would be in excellent hands. She came twice a day to clean the litter, feed them, and make sure they had fresh water. She was also kind enough to bring in the mail, take out the trash on “trash” day and wash all the cat dishes so we didn’t come home to a mess. Her service was impeccable. Her daughter was with her which made my cats even a little more spoiled by the extra attention they received. Please don’t hesitate to hire Kimberly. We highly recommend her and will reach out again for any future travel needs.”
About: I have always had a cat in my household growing up, and it's always been my responsibility to care for them! I won't say I'm actually a cat whisperer, but I definitely am very aware of cat's behaviors and needs. I can and have gone hours playing with my cats and other peoples', and I am an expert cat hair cleaner ;) I'm also not afraid to get a few scratches, which is very important.

“Ilona has been great with our dog! She was recommended to us by a fellow dog parent and we’re very thankful for Ilona - she takes great care of our dog, sends us a detailed care information after each visit, and the kids are so good with our dog as well. Bonus that Ilona is close to our home! Her communication is quick and is flexible when our pick up and drop off times need to shift on short notice.”
“My baby Makana had a great time at JJ’s house.. Though we didn’t see the host’s interior of the house where the pets are, the pictures she had sent looked clean and safe.. It’s Makana’s first time to socialize with 2 dogs since she turned 2 yrs old due to some health issues when she’s a pup. We thought it’s time for her to explore and find out if she is well adjusted now that she’s an adult.She is as expected to be a little shy but was able to adapt and became comfortable. She is tired and pretty happy bec she had a play date with Zuri ( the host’s furbaby) and another furbaby. I’m glad that JJ has been sending pic and videos of our baby’s socialization activities and so nice of their son to play with the FBabies.. Thank you and will definitely recommend her services.”
“Skylar was amazing! This was our first time leaving our five month old puppy with someone and Skylar totally put us at ease. She sent us photos, our puppy adjusted well, and we couldn’t have been happier with her care! We’ve definitely found our sitter going forward! 💜”
“Melisa was amazing, offered to even meet prior to the arrangement and took wonderful care of our pup. We will be using her in the future, glad we found her. Very responsive and flexible.”
“We needed a dog sitter asap while we got our kitchen demolished for renovation. Our 9 month old Shepherd mix had a great time. He played with her dog, he was walked and he took naps throughout the day. I was updated with pictures and videos. It assured our family to know he was in good hands. Thank you so much Elena ❤️ Look forward to bringing our puppy back again when we need your services.”
“Nicole is amazing! She made Sundae feel safe. This is Sundae’s very first day care! She gave updates and photos, and made sure Sundae felt comfortable and safe! I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Kimberly is great, she took great care of our pup Misha. She was very attentive to all of Misha's needs and we have never seen Misha so happy and comfortable other than home. All of Kimberly's pups are very gentle and Misha even made her first friend. We are very happy to see Misha be so comfortable with Kimberly and her family. We would definitely go back to her...”

About: I've worked with special needs animals all my life from tri-pawds, deaf, and blind animals to those with dietary restrictions, behavioral issues, anxiety, and sensitivity to stimuli. Currently I am also employed by a farm that has working breads for dogs and barn cats.

My animals have special dietary needs along with special care for allergies and sensitive skin. They receive joint supplements, specially vetted foods, special bathing requirements, and seasonal medications. I'm well versed at the care special needs animals require because of this.
About: I love animals; always have! I used to come home from school and do homework in front of Animal Planet and when it wasn't doing that I was taking care of my neighbor's pets. They had cats, dogs and horses and I looked forward to it every time.

“Ayvan has been great with Goldie! She's prompt at responding and picking up Goldie, she's kind, and Goldie is so happy to see her. I really appreciate Ayvan's care for my pup.”
“Rachel is a caring, attentive and very easygoing person to deal with everything she promised to do, She did, and my dog absolutely loves her. I would recommend her anytime. This was the first time I entrusted anyone either my dog and they hit it off from the get go.”
About: I've grown up with many MANY dogs and cats, and am as used to caring for them as I am brushing my teeth. Very secure in loving and handling smaller dogs, as having grown up with three boston terriers. However, I have been a dog walker for small, medium, and large puppers. I take about 3 walks a day outside on my own, and could walk with a dog for hours if needed. Not afraid to clean any animal excrements and get my hands dirty ;) I am almost always free! I cannot do night walks (past 6PM), but am still available for house/pet sitting. My weekends are also almost always free. Starting the end of August this might change, but for now I am basically all yours! As someone who used to have a very anxious dog, I am experienced in creating a stress free environment. For example, I can easily notice when a dog becomes stressed, such as hackles and drooling. I am conscious of the importance of leashing, the importance of constant awareness during walks, and the importance of continued affection. Ready to clean up after any animal, feed any pet on a specific schedule, and also clean a home free of fur. Bonus: I love to give dogs a good bath; Cats too if they let me :)
About: Safety, trust & environment I have volunteered for the past five years training and raising dogs for Guide Dogs of America, an organization that raises, trains, and pairs dogs with people with blindness, veterans with PTSD, and kids with autism. I’ve also spent two decades raising and training my own dogs, working across different breeds, temperaments, and life stages. I’m especially skilled at supporting: • Dogs who are anxious, sensitive, or easily overstimulated • Puppies building confidence and structure • Dogs who benefit from calm routines and positive reinforcement I am currently building a doggy daycare business in Santa Clarita and would love to meet you and your furry kid! I am available at any time during the week to fit your schedule during daylight hours. Please connect with me!! My care philosophy is rooted in positive psychology and positive reinforcement—focusing on what helps dogs thrive rather than using fear, punishment, or aversive methods. I believe dogs do best when they feel safe, understood, and supported.

I love to cuddle with dogs, so I’m more than happy to give them all of the love they need. I let dogs on my bed and other furniture so if they need to be close by, they are more than welcome. If they like to keep to themselves in their own home, I’m also happy to give them their space!
About: I have had dogs all my life, and I love taking care of my friends and family's fur babies too. I'll treat your pets like family too and provide them with the best care! I currently have two cats and a large dog that I take care of daily, including grooming and training. I have a flexible, work from home schedule and can fit visits in when convenient for you. Mornings tend to be more difficult for me, but I'm more than happy to work with you to meet your needs. I can take your pups for a walk, groom them, and play with them. I can also do drop in visits to check that your pets are comfy and cozy at home and that their environment remains clean and safe.
About: Hi! I'm Kiana, and I have many years of experience with all kinds of pets, both under my own roof and within others' homes. I have owned and loved pets of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and various personalities. I find so much joy in getting to know pets, as they typically reflect their humans- and I'm willing to serve their needs in any way. Ultimately, I'm fully committed to keeping your pet safe, secure, and making sure that they're loved! I'm currently a student on summer break, and I'm searching for a part-time job at the moment. With that being said, I currently have plenty of availability throughout the week. I'm available 8am - 8pm during weekdays and Saturdays, and on Sundays I'm available after 2pm. During times that I am working, though, I typically come early in the morning (or wake up early if I'm already at a client's house), care for the pet(s), go to work, and then come back either during lunch time or at the end of my shift. It all honestly depends on the pets and their needs, but I am completely flexible! When I go to a client's home, I take extra care to respect their property and only go into delegated areas. My job is to care for the pet and maintain the homeowner's trust, so if a mess is made or an accident happens, I go the extra mile to inform the client immediately and take care of it as soon as possible. I want to make sure your pet feels loved and safe, especially within their own home. Even more so, I want the client to feel at ease, knowing that both their property and beloved pet are being cared for!
About: I've had experience caring for my own dogs and pet-sitting for friends, neighbors, and families! I am very patient with animals with behavioral issues, my own dog has anxiety and I understand that it takes time to build trust with new people. I'm always happy to play, give lots of love and special attention. I am staying in California for the summer between semesters, so my schedule is completely open for caring for pets. I'm happy to spend as much time as possible with animals and I'd love to be able to help people out that want the best for their pets! I make sure that the pets get enough exercise/time outside, that they're getting enough to eat and drink, and going to the bathroom regularly. I will clean up after any messes that they make, I know how anxiety or excitement can affect pets. I've had experience giving medication to dogs before, so I understand the schedule of that, if needed.
About: I grew up with a family dog and have been around dogs my entire life! I have around 8–10 years of hands-on care including walking, feeding, bathing, and spending time with pets! I also volunteer at my local animal sanctuary and regularly do so whenever I am back in my hometown; cats and dogs! I love, love animals and would love to make sure your pets are amazingly taken care of! I usually pet sit every week or so! 😊 I would love to take great care of your pets and treat them like my own! I would want to follow the owner’s procedures and rules regarding their pet in respect to their wishes and usual routine. I also would care for the pets in regards to their feeding times, bathing, walking, and more I will need to do!
About: I've had two dogs and a cat in my lifetime. I also have 2 years of pet sitting experience for some of my family friends! I have trained my two dogs and can spend hours playing with animals! I am currently unemployed, and searching for work, so my schedule is flexible, and I am looking for ways to make some extra money! I thought this would be an excellent way. I have an apartment, but it's well kept and has plenty of space for animals to play around. There is also a grassy area outside for dogs to play. As for a clients home, I will always make sure to keep it clean and avoid touching anything that isn't meant for me or your beloved pet.

“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”
“Anh and William are excellent sitters. They were very communicative and sent photos of my dog and were very flexible with our last minute travel changes. Highly recommend!”
“Tiffany and her family were perfect for our high energy dog! They have two energetic dogs of their own and our dog, Winston, gets lots of play time with them and lots of balls to fetch from the family! Our dog also LOVES the pool and got to swim in their pool twice over a three night stay, and Tiffany was gracious to bathe him afterwards and even give him a life jacket so he could enjoy it with their kids. We love that Winston is having his own vacation while we’re away, and will continue to use Tiffany for our upcoming stays!”
“Laura was so kind and patient with our puppy. She was great at updating us and even more great at taking care and giving extra attention to our puppy, Angel! We appreciate you so much Laura.”
About: Hi! I'm Nicole, a lifelong animal lover with seven years of experience working at Saugus Animal Hospital and over 10 years of pet sitting for friends and family. I grew up with large Alaskan Malamute/Huskies and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I work primarily from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. My husband also works from home several days each week, so your dog will rarely be left alone. My home has a secure front and backyard, and my two resident cats are very accustomed to having dogs visit. We live in a neighborhood with beautiful shaded paseos and a nearby park, making it easy to enjoy safe and comfortable walks. I'm also a lifelong cat owner and currently have two sister cats who are the center of my world. For cat owners, I offer drop-in visits in your home so your cat can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I'm especially good with shy or nervous cats and enjoy taking the time to earn their trust at their own pace. My veterinary experience taught me how to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort, and I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs. After walks and hikes, I always check dogs for foxtails and debris, and I'm happy to arrange a bath with owner approval if needed. Whether I'm caring for your dog in my home or visiting your cat in theirs, my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and reliable experience while keeping you updated with photos and messages along the way. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work primarily from home. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, companionship, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I typically like to take dogs out for walks early in the morning before the weather gets too warm and again in the evening as temperatures cool down. Depending on your dog's energy level and preferences, we can enjoy neighborhood walks along our shaded paseos, visits to the nearby park, or even hikes on local trails. On the occasional day that I need to go into the office for a few hours or attend a work event, I coordinate my schedule whenever possible with my husband's work-from-home days so that your dog continues to receive attention, companionship, and timely potty breaks. My goal is to maintain your dog's normal routine as closely as possible and make their stay feel like a home away from home. I care for every pet as if they were my own family member. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where your dog feels relaxed and at home. My home has both an enclosed backyard and front yard, providing secure outdoor space for potty breaks and supervised play. Dogs are welcome on the couch and bed if that's allowed in their home, as I want to maintain the routines and comforts they're accustomed to. With seven years of experience working at Saugus Animal Hospital, I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall well-being so I can quickly identify if something seems off. Safety is especially important to me during walks and outdoor adventures. After walks or hikes, I carefully check dogs for foxtails, burrs, and other debris that can become lodged in their paws, ears, or fur. I also follow all owner instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise restrictions, and special care needs. I provide regular photo updates and communication throughout your pet's stay so you can feel confident knowing they're happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention. If needed, I can also take dogs to a self-service dog wash for a bath (with owner approval) before they head home.

“Stacey took amazing care of our beagle. She gave him lots of attention and played with him. He just loves her! She sent daily pictures of him. We feel so fortunate to have found Stacey and highly recommend her!”
“Highly highly recommend! They take excellent care and are invested truly in taking great care of the dogs. This time my dogs were eager to get inside their house when they went for the weekend. Very lucky to have found them.”
“Thank you to Dina and her family who were so wonderful to my senior schnoodle Clarice! My pup had so much fun and Dina even offered to give her a bath. I loved receiving the photos, too. Dina and her family were lovely and treated my pup with care. I would love to have Clarice stay with them again.”
“Summer and her family are great! They are super friendly and obviously love dogs. They are very accommodating to our schedule and when our dog got conjunctivitis just a few days before we were scheduled to leave, Summer wasn't phased at all and even helped administer eye drops for us. Summer's availability will be the first I check whenever I'm heading out of town.”
“Alyssa took absolutely amazing care of our Ollie while we were away. From the moment we met her, we could tell how genuinely caring, attentive, and responsible she is. Ollie was so happy, comfortable, and well loved the entire stay, and she kept us updated which gave us so much peace of mind. You can truly tell she treats the dogs she watches like her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that means everything to us. We would trust her again and again without hesitation and cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much, Alyssa!”
“We need a sitter for our dog for one day and our sitter is no longer available. I came across Ms. Irina's name and she was available. She was soft spoken and very kind hearted. She sent me tons of pictures and videos. I could tell that my dog is well taken cared of and having a great time with her and her dog. She also sent me some updates on their activities which is very thoughtful. She even let our dog sleeps in her bed. It is so nice to know that our dog was pampered so well. I couldn't thank her enough for taking care of our dog in such a short notice. I highly recommend her to my friends and families who needs a dog sitter anytime. Thank you again Ms. Irina. We will definitely see you again. God bless.”
“Anjali was absolutely amazing with my little Lucy. Since it was my first time using her to board Lucy I was nervous but she put my mind at ease by sending pictures throughout the day and first thing every morning. It was so reassuring to see Lucy feeling comfortable under her care. Anjali’s attentiveness and regular updates made all the difference. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’ve already decided Lucy will definitely be returning to Anjali’s care. Highly recommend her services to any parent looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.👍”
“Kimberly is very caring & down to earth, and took excellent care of our sweet pup-pup! She responded quickly to my last-minute request for a sitter; was truly accommodating and helpful; kept us well informed; and sent THE most beautiful pictures! Thank you, dear Kimberly, for a wonderful experience! ❤️”
