“Aron was great 👍 Duncan came home a happy pup and looked great. Actually I wasn't sure if he wanted to come home or not. I was afraid that he might have a little separation anxiety but Aron texted me soon after I dropped him off that he mixed right in with his fellow pups which really made me feel at ease. I will definitely use his service again!”
“Grant is a fantastic caregiver for any doggy but esp mine. Ive got a great dog (husky mix, good temperament, great on walks, mellow, polite, no potty mistakes, doesnt destroy anything) and I struggle to let people spend time with her unless Im confident the person can maintain the same "rules, boundaries and limitations" that I (try to) do. (i.e., dont disrupt the freakin miracle) So, the big takeaways from my experience boarding the doggy with Grant: Grant communicates very well with his clients (texts and pics/videos), clearly created some kind of relationship with my doggy (totally relaxed, responded to Grant's voice), and has the type of property and pack where you know your dog is loving life (even if it upsets you that Grant would send you evidence that your dog can have such a good time without you). Most importantly to me, while my doggy was happy to see me when I picked her up (bc she's a good girl!), she was not particularly interested to leave bc she wanted to nose her new bestie from Grant's pack. So positive for me to know that she was safe and see she was having fun.”
“We had a great experience! My dog had a recent surgery and I was nervous to leave him for the weekend. Kandra took such good care of my boy and was super communicative throughout the whole time we were away!”
“I am very late in posting this but Linda and Dan are wonderful! Their property is like "Doggy Disneyland" and Cooper loves them. I have no worries leaving our boy here. Thanks again for being so accommodating!”
“We are glad we found Logan in town! We needed a petsitter for the weekend, and Logan was available! She was great, took them on walks, send pictures and updates! We’d definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking for a pet sitter. Thank you Logan for the great care of our pets!”
“Absolutely wonderful person and family for our pup to stay with! Amanda was great at caring for our senior pup and we appreciate knowing she was in safe hands during our trip.”
“Alexis's place is in a secluded and safe place with huge lawn and play area for dogs. She is extremely patient and kind with older dogs like ours and has shown willingness to go the extra mile caring for them. Hidden gem and definitely recommendable.”
“Leslie and her husband took excellent care of our needy pup. Had complete peace of mind leaving our dog with them. Felt like our dog was also going on vacation staying there. Would definitely recommend boarding with Leslie and hope to use her services in the future.”
“Yolanda was awesome!!! She provided my dog a mini vaca filled with lots of playtime and outdoor exploring! I highly recommend Yolanda’s services!! She was just what I expected! kt”
“Debra was wonderful. I was half was around the world & never worried about my boy. She sent lots of pictures & updates, which kept my mind at ease & allowed me to enjoy my trip. I have trouble finding people to watch my boy because Chow Chow’s have a bit of a bad reputation, even though mine is sweet as can be. She didn’t hesitate & I’m so grateful. Would use her services again & again. 🐾”
“Jullaney was amazing! You can tell she has a passion for animals and she took great care of Blu. She was able to pick up, and drop off, my dog at my house which was super helpful. She even sent me updates, pictures, and videos of my dog having a fun ol' time with her dogs 😊 Thanks again! 🙏🙏🙏”
“Kelsey was super responsive and great about sending pictures and updates! My dog had a great time playing with her dog and the other dogs in her care, and was exhausted when he got him (the way he gets when he plays all day!) The environment was safe and fun, prefect for my playful guy.”
“Abbie did a great job taking care of Ella-dog. Her communication was prompt and professional and most importantly Ella-dog had a great time. 10/10 would happily recommend to anyone.”
“Pam was awesome with Otis! Our normally anxious little fellow immediately warmed right up to her. Pam has a calm, relaxed personality and is very experienced with caring for dogs. She more than met our expectations, paying close attention to all of our instructions, taking Otis for daily walks and even allowing him to stay in his normal routine by sleeping in bed with her. Pam's home is very clean and tidy and yet also dog friendly and pet welcoming. She reported Otis took a real liking to her husband as well. Pam kept in contact with us, sent a picture and we felt confident that he was in good hands! We will definitely be booking Pam again. So glad we found her!”
About: Hi there! I’m Barr, a wife and mother with a lifelong love for animals. We have a sweet 15-year-old Jack Russell named Indie, and I honestly can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet. Animals have always been a huge part of our family, and our compassion for them is one of the reasons we chose a vegan lifestyle. I also worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets and supporting their health and well-being. As a mom, I’m now looking to earn a little extra income while doing something that truly matters to me—spending time with and caring for animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. This is one of the reasons why I wanted to start doing this and would be perfect for any spontaneous short or long trips! I have a spacious backyard, but unfortunately, it’s not fenced. To keep our dog, Indie, who is incredibly friendly with all animals, safe, I usually take them for three walks each day. We shower her with cuddles and treats from my husband, our baby girl and I each and every day ☺️
“Samantha is wonderful! Thank you so much for taking Milo at the last minute. I can tell he had fun and a great experience on the farm. I also really appreciate the pictures and video! Thank you!”
“We loved having Ruby watch our pup and take such amazing care of him! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and felt at complete ease during our whole vacation. She provided several updates a day, with pictures and videos. Thank you so much for taking care of Rocky!!”
“Allie and her family were wonderful! I really appreciated the daily photos of Stella while we were gone. The communication was great. You can tell they love the doggos they care for, which makes it easier to leave your dog behind.”

“Cynthia provided 10 days of drop-in care for our picky eater cat. After a "meet and greet" with Cynthia, we were confident she was the right person for the job. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our "baby" would be in the care of a kind, experienced and conscientious animal lover.”
“Cydney was immensely supportive. When I booked, my cat was healthy. When the time came, Cleo needed way more care. Cydney stepped up and covered everything like a professional. I'll have her back.”
“Sonya is amazing with my fur babies! I feel super blessed to have her help. She is caring, loving and takes her responsibilities very seriously. I feel 100% security knowing Sonya is coming to visit with my cats and taking care of them. She goes above and beyond the call of duty with the communication, photos and extra Love she shows my cats! I am SO STOKED with Sonya’s services and support and you will be too. ❤️🐈🐾🐈🐾🐈🐾❤️”
About: Hello! Thank you for taking interest. I am an animal lover who is trying to make some extra money doing something I care about. I've been housesitting for about 4-5 years for mostly dogs and cats, but I have had the occasional snake or fish, even a pig once! I'm very excited to meet you and your pets!
“Natalie was awesome! I came home to very happy cats even a thank-you note. Natalie was super reliable and communicative and totally helped me out with my last-minute request, for which I'm super grateful.”
“Yolanda is genuinely fantastic!!! First of all, she’s so kind and you can tell she truly loves animals and people. She came and met our furry family and was very attentive to the details of how to care for them. Prior to our vacation, she checked in and was very communicative and excited to come and stay. I sent a few videos via the app on some updated protocols with the kitty meds, and she was on it! While she was here, she sent sweet pics of our kitties and kept us posted. Our cats are “elders” and needs meds, and she did a great job handling all of it! She left our house spotless and communicated prior to heading out as well. I would HIGHLY recommend Yolanda to care for you furry family ❤️🙏”
“Paola took such good care of our 15 year old kitty! Our house looked spotless as well, which I know wasn’t luck. Our kitty tends to struggle with hairballs! Paola spent at least 30 minutes on each visit, playing with the kitty and chasing away her loneliness. It’s so comforting to know that someone truly cares for your pet while you’re away on a trip. That’s how we felt about Paola.”
About: I’ve taken care and been around cats since I was little. I’m extremely in tune with their quirks and reading what they’re okay and not okay with. I’ve had 3 of my own cats, male and female. I know how to give oral medications and injections.
About: I grew up with a family of people and pets. I have always loved animals and always will. Often times my parents would leave the house for a get away. I am an only child so it would always be up to me to watch what was a big part of my life 2 cats and 2 dogs. It was something that was so natural to me being I grew up doing and my parents always trusted me with the duty. As of the moment I live alone with no pets and being lonely, would love to spend some quality time with a furry companion being I'm not allowed to own a pet in the apartment where I live. I have experience with both dogs and cats, small dogs, big dogs or any cat. Thanks.
“Majesty was extremely responsive and a great resource for an admittedly last minute request for a pop in to let our dogs out while we were at a Christmas party. I felt that our house instructions were read and acknowledged thoroughly, and majesty was communicative and reliable about showing up on time. We’ll definitely hire majesty again.”
About: I love animals and have been caring for them professionally for the past six years. I have experience with all kinds of cats and dogs, including those with unique personalities, from both friendly and anxious, and I adore them all equally. I have cared for puppies that need training and almost constant attention, as well as senior dogs that need special care. Nothing makes me happier than earning a pets trust and seeing those ears perk up or that tail wag. I currently do work from home, so I am able to spend as much time with your pet as is needed for whatever care they need. I am very attentive and always make sure to follow directions both about pet care and house rules given by the owners. I pride myself on being a kind and respectful pet sitter and tenant.
“Jillian was great! She ensured Sunny was well looked after and at ease during the fireworks, and she kept me updated with numerous photos of their brushing and cuddling sessions. It's clear that they had many exciting outdoor adventures, given that Sunny is an outdoor cat. Jillian ensured his food and water dishes were always full, provided plenty of tuna snacks, and even cleaned his litter box. Considering the way they interacted in the videos, it's evident that they share a special bond. I wholeheartedly recommend Jillian and will definitely hire her again.”
“Kellie is always consistent, thorough and communicative. She went above and beyond to engage my skittish kitty. I had no worries about things being looked after while I was away.”
“Anna took excellent care of Bubba while we were away for a weekend. We came home to a happy, well-fed cat. The photos were great and we could tell he had a great time when she stopped by. Would recommend Anna anytime! Thanks!”

“Aron has been so excellent with my 9 month old Malinois! She comes home exhausted and is always excited to be there. He’s very attentive and puts up with my paranoid-dog-mom “how’s she doing?” texts every so often 😂 highly recommend!”

About: I love dogs, I love cats, and truly all animals. I treat every pet as family, offering dependable care, kindness, and attention to their unique needs. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily adapt to your pet’s needs. Mornings start with feeding, walks (if needed), and playtime. Throughout the day, I provide potty breaks, short walks, and attention. Evenings include dinner, exercise, and cuddles before a final bathroom break. Since I’m home often, your pet will get frequent companionship, and I can stick to their usual routine—whether that’s medication, training, or extra play. Weekends allow for longer adventures like park visits or extended play sessions. In My Home: I provide a pet-friendly space with scheduled feedings, walks, playtime, and cozy rest areas. Your pet gets constant attention, safe socialization (if approved), and a structured routine. I have 10+ acres of space to allow your pets to be free to have fun. In Client’s Home: I follow your pet’s normal schedule (meals, walks, meds) and keep their environment familiar. Includes updates, litter/yard cleanup, and extra cuddles to reduce stress while you’re away.
“Katya provided a safe, comfortable, happy play stay for our 20-month-old golden retriever. Mattie loved playing with Dewi and Mishka! Katya's calm demeanor put our girl at ease right away. You can tell that she is a dog lover who understands how to take charge while still having fun. Definitely will use her services in the future!”
About: My family has always had 1-2 dogs, and I have been watching other people's dogs for 6 years. My family once had 4 cats and farm animals, so l am also experienced with other animals. I love going on hikes and walks. My clients are always happy with my caretaking, often asking me to watch their animals again. I am able to watch your pet (s) at animals again. I am able to watch your pet (s) at you house, as long as it is clean, but l am also able to watch your pets) at my house, as long as they get along with my families' dog. :) I have watched many types and breeds of dogs (doodle mix, Chihuahua mix, Australian cattle dog, etc) I am currently unemployed, so I have lots of time to give your dogs attention, hikes, or whatever they need. I will only not be available June 8-19, and after mid August my availability will change. I have a fenced yard, and one friendly, smallish dog. I live on a ranch, so beyond the dance there is plenty of space for the dog to run around if they are okay off leash. I also have one cat, so it is preferable that your pet is cat friendly, but if not I may be also to make it work.
“What a great environment for my dog. The backyard is a dog's dream, especially if your pup likes to run. Yolanda was very accommodating when I was delayed and kept me informed of how Beau was doing during his stay. I would highly recommend Yolanda and her Doggy Day Care.”
“Louisa was very accommodating about drop-off and pick-up. She sent photo updates throughout the day and it was clear that our dog, Stella, had a wonderful day playing with resident dog Jin. Lots of space to run and play on their convenient property near Nevada City.”
About: I have been doing Rover for over a year now and have helped a number of happy clients. I am active and can run higher energy, working dogs. I am based in the Sacramento area. My availability varies based on my work schedule so the best way to schedule is to message me. Your dog(s) will get plenty of attention and care while I am either sitting, walking or seeing them for a drop-in visit.

About: I've taken care of all different breeds of dogs my entire life. As well as personalities. Whether they're shedders, have an anxious attachment, are seniors, babies, aggressive/reactive dogs.. they all need love. And I'm here to help! I'm 100% available for your needs. I've been helping with animals my entire life, but I am new to the area. So I am fully available and looking for new opportunities! I worked 5 years for a family walking their dog an hour and a half every morning. They traveled during the summers and he would stay at my place and go on a ton of adventures with me! Whether it was beach trips, hikes, dog parks, sleepovers with friends and family.. he always tagged along! I’m happy to find a similar situation in Northern California. I am available full-time! I'm adaptable and am happy to accommodate to your needs. I know animal parents also have their preferences when it comes to how their babies are treated, so I'm here to do whatever it takes to make everyone comfortable.
About: Dogs are part of the family! I grew up with animals and have always taken our responsibility to pets seriously. I'm trained as a professional pet nutrition advocate and have experience not just feeding all the pets but truly healing thru nutrition with everything from making whole foods and supplements, to designing recipes and diets, including the treats, to training and socializing dogs of all ages and backgrounds. I've built my schedule around pet care including making the foods and minimum 2 walks a day. I'm happy to make time for the pets anytime! Whether I'm staying over with your dogs or they're staying over with me, I strive to keep them happy and healthy in every way with good nutrition, exercise and quality interaction.
About: We loved our pound puppy from birth until he passed at year 13:(. We love all things dog. We saw him through the puppy years, daily walks, and the older years with wagon rides. We will love your baby as we loved ours. I am stay at home mom with two littles who love dogs!! We can’t wait to walk your dog several times a day and snuggle. We walk all the time, go to parks, have a fenced in area (10x10 area), snuggle. We are a responsible family, we eat healthy and feed our family/ pets the same. We enjoy the outdoors, non smoking, super clean people:)
About: Hi, we are Molly, Massimo and Zali. We've had dogs in our families and had taken care of pets of all kinds since we were kids. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on us to walk, feed and care for their pets of all shapes & sizes. We use positive reinforcement for training and pride ourselves on having trained Zali & other dogs basic commands, to walk both on & off leash, plus some fun party tricks. Our favorite “trick” is to ring a bell to go outside. On rainy days, we play hide & seek games with toys & treats around the house to make sure we’re all still getting plenty of stimulation. We’re still unsure who’s more entertained, us or the dogs, when they’re are searching for their reward ;) We are enthusiastic hosts & look forward to meeting you & your pup! We work from home and begin each day with a good romp in our big back yard and a long neighborhood walk. Our yard has plenty of shade and running water. Doggos and humans alike love it here 💓🐶 We live on a 2 acre fully fenced lot and have a sweet, 5 year old female boxer mix that will keep your dog company. She happily shares her toys; playing with other doggo friends & sunny naps are some of her favorite pastimes. While she is a large and playful dog, she is able to match any dogs level of excitement and play.

I have more experience with adult and senior dogs but I can’t say no to a puppy! 🫶 I’m available usually after 10am and can drop in anytime.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I walk a malamute and husky a lot. I pet sit for smaller dogs too. I love walking dogs because it’s a good exercise for them I currently am still in high school I graduate in June so right now I’m available to walk dogs around 4pm. I drive so I can do a little far distance When walking dogs I walk them for an hour and I always bring water to make sure they get the water they need and don’t overheat
“Natalie is kind, consistent and reliable. We’ve been very lucky to have her skillful, calm, presence assisting with daily walks and positive reinforcement training for our high energy pup, Kai.”
“Sonya does an excellent job! Not only is she great with my crazy pup, her background in animal nutrition has been an invaluable resource as I am working to improve my dogs diet. I appreciate her availability and wonderful care!”
About: People often say I have a way with animals. They always seem drawn to me immediately, even when they are wary of others. I feel honored that animals feel this way about me because I feel the same about them! I have cared for many dogs of all sizes as well as owned cats. I have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand that has many disabled dogs as well as fostered cats/kittens here at home. I have a big fenced yard with both grass and forest to run and play. I don’t have multiple dogs staying with me at one time ( unless discussed in advance) so your baby will get all the attention. Although I will never replace you, I can provide love and safety until you return (and probably some treats and adventures too!) I'm currently not working and can dedicate my time to pet/house sitting and care. As you can see from my photo gallery, I love all animals and have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand, fostered kittens at home, and have seen very cool animals in the wild and at animal rescues/sanctuaries around the world. (I always vet them to make sure they are ethical and doing legit work) I have a large fenced yard and indoor space for cats or dogs. We have plenty of shade and are also willing to take pets with us on outings. I live with my husband and son and they also love and respect animals. As far as caring for pets at someone else's home, I can stay at your house or check in as often as needed. I will play with them, feed them, bathe them, take them places (if requested) and give them love. I know they miss their people and its not the same without you, but I do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable.
About: I have taken care of various dogs through the years. All sizes and ages. Usually love to take them on long walks and hikes around my neighborhood. I’m available to walk in the morning and afternoon. I am also available to take in pets for an over weekend or in home care. I like to walk dogs as often as I can or on very long walks. I have a pretty spacious apartment so they can run around. I have a cat who is very friendly with other dogs.
“Shannon was amazing with my shy pup, showing great patience and taking the time to earn her trust. She also did a fantastic job meeting my puppy’s high energy needs, making sure she got plenty of exercise. It’s clear Shannon really understands dogs, and I couldn’t be happier with the care provided. Highly recommend!”

If your pet is staying with me or I’m keeping them company in your own home, I always am engaging with the pet. Any opportunity to play and have some fun, we’re doing it!

About: I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have experience with a wide range of animals and personality types starting from a young age.

About: Hi! My name is Ella. I love all animals. I am a Cal Poly Pomona Graduate with a BS in Apparel Production as well as I have my 200hr Yoga Certification. I had two Labradors growing up. I am very good with training and using treats for techniques/training etiquette. I love going on walks, but miss having a walking buddy. I am originally from Northern California but have been in Southern California for 7 years. Well-trained animals preferably, with commands:). I love all dogs, big and small, young or old. Your dog will love me. Please let me know if they have any allergies, or any special toys/ harnesses as well. Can’t wait to meet your pup and you. I am very sociable as well! Feel free to ask questions! I can also transport myself or your pup when needed. I have a three-year-old cat named Phoenix. He likes to be brushed and gets treats of course before the brushing 3/4 times a week! I think hygiene is very important when living with animals. We are still working on Phoenix's leash comfortability. But I am willing to fit walks with your dogs into my daily routine if you will have me! I have been missing walking, playing, training, and giving dogs treats ever since becoming a cat mom. I am a very organized and clean person. I vacuum twice a week or more with having a cat, and a rug that he loves to play on. I clean Phoenix's water and food bowls twice a week or more so as to not have any build-up or potential for mold/fungus/bugs. Cleaning his litter box every couple of days is a necessity for me as well as disinfecting the box every other week or more, depending on the week :).

We have a fenced yard, and dogs to keep your fur baby company! I have full time care at our house for our dogs, so I am available full time for your babies whether I'm at your house or mine!
About: I offer calm, attentive care for pets, with a steady presence that helps animals feel safe and settled. • Experienced with dog walking, feeding, and drop-in care • Calm, attentive, and intuitive with animals of all temperaments • Comfortable with routines, medications, and special needs • Reliable and respectful in both short visits and extended care Over the past several years, I’ve immersed myself in house and pet sitting, earning a reputation for reliability, cleanliness, discretion, and a calm, responsible presence. I’m often entrusted with extended and live-in care, and I take stewardship of both pets and home seriously. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals and situations, including long-term dog sitting for a couple over several years, from weekend trips to multi-week stays. Before a period of travel abroad, they even flew me to Portland to care for their dogs, Sana and Osa, and their cat Ninja during a three-week wedding trip to Mexico. Sana required extra sensitivity and daily car rides to a quiet cemetery to avoid overstimulation, which I was happy to accommodate. I’ve also house- and pet-sat for a senior couple, caring for two cats, two chickens, and managing a daily bird-feeding system for local avian visitors who were dear companions to the homeowner. In another sit, I tended to a rescue crow and her two cat companions for a full month while the owners were in India studying Vedic astrology. In many of these situations, I’ve also been responsible for watering plants, collecting mail, maintaining routines, and simply being a reassuring human presence in the home—keeping things running smoothly, lights on, and the house clearly lived-in while owners are away. I’m very comfortable accommodating unique requests and supporting both pets and homes with care and respect. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be present and adapt my day around your pets’ needs. I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, and companionship, and I’m open to coordinating routines that support your pet’s comfort and wellbeing. I provide care in my clients’ homes, maintaining their pets’ normal routines and environment. I focus on calm, attentive presence, safety, and clear communication. I’m comfortable administering medication, managing feeding and exercise, and keeping the home clean, secure, and lived-in while you’re away. I treat each home and animal with respect, discretion, and care.

“Aron was great 👍 Duncan came home a happy pup and looked great. Actually I wasn't sure if he wanted to come home or not. I was afraid that he might have a little separation anxiety but Aron texted me soon after I dropped him off that he mixed right in with his fellow pups which really made me feel at ease. I will definitely use his service again!”
“Grant is a fantastic caregiver for any doggy but esp mine. Ive got a great dog (husky mix, good temperament, great on walks, mellow, polite, no potty mistakes, doesnt destroy anything) and I struggle to let people spend time with her unless Im confident the person can maintain the same "rules, boundaries and limitations" that I (try to) do. (i.e., dont disrupt the freakin miracle) So, the big takeaways from my experience boarding the doggy with Grant: Grant communicates very well with his clients (texts and pics/videos), clearly created some kind of relationship with my doggy (totally relaxed, responded to Grant's voice), and has the type of property and pack where you know your dog is loving life (even if it upsets you that Grant would send you evidence that your dog can have such a good time without you). Most importantly to me, while my doggy was happy to see me when I picked her up (bc she's a good girl!), she was not particularly interested to leave bc she wanted to nose her new bestie from Grant's pack. So positive for me to know that she was safe and see she was having fun.”
“We had a great experience! My dog had a recent surgery and I was nervous to leave him for the weekend. Kandra took such good care of my boy and was super communicative throughout the whole time we were away!”
“I am very late in posting this but Linda and Dan are wonderful! Their property is like "Doggy Disneyland" and Cooper loves them. I have no worries leaving our boy here. Thanks again for being so accommodating!”
“We are glad we found Logan in town! We needed a petsitter for the weekend, and Logan was available! She was great, took them on walks, send pictures and updates! We’d definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking for a pet sitter. Thank you Logan for the great care of our pets!”
“Absolutely wonderful person and family for our pup to stay with! Amanda was great at caring for our senior pup and we appreciate knowing she was in safe hands during our trip.”
“Alexis's place is in a secluded and safe place with huge lawn and play area for dogs. She is extremely patient and kind with older dogs like ours and has shown willingness to go the extra mile caring for them. Hidden gem and definitely recommendable.”
“Leslie and her husband took excellent care of our needy pup. Had complete peace of mind leaving our dog with them. Felt like our dog was also going on vacation staying there. Would definitely recommend boarding with Leslie and hope to use her services in the future.”
“Yolanda was awesome!!! She provided my dog a mini vaca filled with lots of playtime and outdoor exploring! I highly recommend Yolanda’s services!! She was just what I expected! kt”
“Debra was wonderful. I was half was around the world & never worried about my boy. She sent lots of pictures & updates, which kept my mind at ease & allowed me to enjoy my trip. I have trouble finding people to watch my boy because Chow Chow’s have a bit of a bad reputation, even though mine is sweet as can be. She didn’t hesitate & I’m so grateful. Would use her services again & again. 🐾”
“Jullaney was amazing! You can tell she has a passion for animals and she took great care of Blu. She was able to pick up, and drop off, my dog at my house which was super helpful. She even sent me updates, pictures, and videos of my dog having a fun ol' time with her dogs 😊 Thanks again! 🙏🙏🙏”
“Kelsey was super responsive and great about sending pictures and updates! My dog had a great time playing with her dog and the other dogs in her care, and was exhausted when he got him (the way he gets when he plays all day!) The environment was safe and fun, prefect for my playful guy.”
“Abbie did a great job taking care of Ella-dog. Her communication was prompt and professional and most importantly Ella-dog had a great time. 10/10 would happily recommend to anyone.”
About: Hi there! I’m Barr, a wife and mother with a lifelong love for animals. We have a sweet 15-year-old Jack Russell named Indie, and I honestly can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet. Animals have always been a huge part of our family, and our compassion for them is one of the reasons we chose a vegan lifestyle. I also worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets and supporting their health and well-being. As a mom, I’m now looking to earn a little extra income while doing something that truly matters to me—spending time with and caring for animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. This is one of the reasons why I wanted to start doing this and would be perfect for any spontaneous short or long trips! I have a spacious backyard, but unfortunately, it’s not fenced. To keep our dog, Indie, who is incredibly friendly with all animals, safe, I usually take them for three walks each day. We shower her with cuddles and treats from my husband, our baby girl and I each and every day ☺️
“Samantha is wonderful! Thank you so much for taking Milo at the last minute. I can tell he had fun and a great experience on the farm. I also really appreciate the pictures and video! Thank you!”
“Jane, her partner, and their dog Journey were wonderful hosts for my pup. She worked hard to help Enzo feel at home and loved while I was away. I will definitely be a repeat client.”
“Sandra took amazing care of our golden retriever. She has a perfect set up for doggie care. She is caring and attentive. I highly recommend her and will definitely leave our dog with her again when we go out of town.”
