“Kristine and her daughter make a wonderful dog sitting duo and we are very glad to have found them to sit our dog Link. She kept us updated with frequent updates and videos of our dog and was very responsive when we checked in. We will definitely rebook when we are planning to travel and visit the Great Wolf Lodge!”
“Susan and Miguel are the BEST! They loved our dogs like they were their own. We got pictures and video updates daily throughout our trip and our dogs were always playing and happy in the videos. They took amazing care of our babies and we will definitely be using them again!”
“Tyler has been excellent at communicating and watching over everything. I am very excited and definitely plan to rebook them. Highly recommend his efforts; he's good with dogs all around. Followed every instruction that was given. Open and ask if I needed anything else afterwards and even left all a treat to take home I highly recommend him.”
“Jennifer gave us updates regularly about how our pup was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with pick up and drop off times. Our dog had a great visit with her. Thanks !”
“We were very grateful to find someone that loves dogs and has a passion for caring for them when their owners need to be away. Our dog was safe & well taken care of. Thank you Monisa & David!”
“Cheridyn & Gil were great taking in our dog on short notice after being recommended by our previous sitter who had relocated. They were super responsive and communicative, I can tell our girl was in good care. Will be rebooking with them in the future!”
“Justine did an amazing job with Willa. This was Willa's first boarding so that is always a little nerve-wracking but Justine was very communicative the whole time. Will be booking again in the near future.”
“Bridget took great care of our two dogs while we were on vacation. She constantly gave us updates and sent pictures of them being their happy selves. Great communication and eased our worries with our rescue GS. Thank you!”
“Booked Jasmine to watch my dog Toby 4 days and 4 nights over Thanksgiving. Before booking, Jasmine agreed on a meet and greet just to confirm that Toby felt comfortable with her. Dropped Toby off Tuesday about 6pm and picked him up Saturday at about 6 pm. Over those 4 days Jasmine would send updates morning, noon, and night along with videos of Toby walking or playing with her dog Molly. Could not have been happier with the care Toby received and since he has been home he has seemed alot calmer than before I dropped him off. I would recommend Jasmine to anyone as she is definitely a 5 STAR sitter. I will for sure book her again in the future when needed.”
“Nathan and family were great! Very communicative and our dog seemed right at home! Which is huge because she has high anxiety but she loved it with Nathan and crew. Will definitely be rebooking soon.”
“Celia is a true dog lover. She took care of my sweet Chihuahua named Joy with love and care. It felt like I’m sending my baby to vacation spa. Celia communicate with me every day, twice a day and sent me pictures to reassure me of the well-being of my joy. I’m very happy and grateful to find such a great dog sitter. I recommend Celia with all my heart she really gave me a piece of mind while I was away.”
“Brian and Eunice were great! Received tons of photo updates of Mochi and I loved it so much. Was feeling anxious with him staying with a new family for 5 nights, but I felt so much better after all the updates and seeing how well Mochi was doing with their family. My fur baby was well taken care of. Mochi became part of their family. Thank you again Brian and Eunice! We will definitely be booking with them again 🥰”
“Rochelle and her family were great. She responds quickly and sends updates. Lots of kids in the home to love on your pet and befriend them. My little pup seemed happy during her stay and I would send her back!”
“Amazing! From the meet and greet to the drop off, the stay and the pick up, Angela was simply amazing throughout. Every update had fun details and every picture sent showed my baby’s happy face. We will definitely ask to avail of her services again!”
“Darshana was perfect. Sent pictures and kept us informed on how Casey was doing. Casey enjoyed playing with Romeo and cuddling with the family. I would highly recommend Darshana.”
“She was great!! Got tons of updates which is what I'm looking for in a Rover! My dog had a lot of furry friends to play with all week and all the photos had her with her tail up and outside, running around and soaking up the Sun. It's like a all day play date for your dog! My only complaint is I think my dog likes the Rover more than me! I'm definitely going to be a returning customer. She is highly recomended!”

About: I have been caring for animals of many kind since I was 11 years old. In my life, I have owned many dogs and cats and have always been a trusted pet care giver since a young age. I currently live on a small farm with 2 dogs, horses, goats, pigs, chickens, and ducks, so I am no stranger to loving and caring for animals. I am a trusted pet sitter and caretaker for family, friends, and neighbors. They know when their animals are in my care, they are safe, loved, and well cared for. I always take extra care and caution to ensure safety of all animals in my care. I am currently a stay-at-home mom and spend most of my day caring for my own animals while my children are at school. I find myself having time in the day, primarily weekdays, where I can spend time assisting others in caring for their animals. My schedule during the week is fairly flexible to help meet the needs of my clients. Safety is my #1 priority. When I am caring for you animals, I ensure gates are locked, animals are secure, and food and water is accessible as needed. I have several habits to ensure I am following all instructions to include checklists and snapping photos of locked gates for ease of mind for myself and my clients.
“Dulce did such an amazing job taking care of our kitties while we were away. She updated us with so much detail at every check in and sent us photos as well. She communicated with us and even went above and beyond for us when we had an unwelcome raccoon visitor trying to steal food. If services are ever needed again we will rebook her!”
“Abigael did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats Luna and Thor while I was away. She was super attentive to their needs and kept me up to date each day on how they were doing. Thank you so much for giving me peace of mind while I was on holiday!”
About: Cats have always been a part of my life. I grew up with family cats and have been around them for as long as I can remember. I’ve also looked after cats for family members and coworkers, making sure they’re fed, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, and plenty of attention (or space, if that’s what they prefer!). I know every cat has their own personality, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I'm the biggest cat lover ♥ I have fostered over 100 cats, kittens, ferals with all types of personalities be it shy, skiddish, eepy, or just a general purr machine. I have house sat for elderly cats that were immobile and needed special medication, as well as cats that required a very specific diet. There is no cat that I would not be comfortable caring for. I would love to help you with your kitty cats and can guarantee they will get endless pets and play time.
About: With a lifetime of pet ownership under my belt, I am confident caring for animals of every shape and size. I bring specialized experience to the table, including bottle-feeding and raising 4-week-old kittens, handling large breeds like Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and caring for pocket pets. I absolutely love sitting energetic puppies and know exactly how to keep them safe, engaged, and well-behaved. Your pets will receive the same level of love and meticulous attention that I give my own!
About: Hi, my name is Celeste. I have had many years of dog experience being a dog owner myself for my whole life. I know that our babies are family and they should be treated as such. They deserve to be treated with kindness, love, and patience. An animal is a gift (even when they’re crazy, ahah). I recently came across many videos online of what happens when we leave our babies with people, and it broke my heart, so I wanted to step out and be the difference. I want you to know that your little piece of family that you’d be leaving with me will always be safe, cared for, protected, and loved. It’s a big step of faith letting a stranger watch over your fur baby, but I want to make sure both you and them are comfortable in every possible way that you need. I know that every owner and every baby is different, and I’m willing to adapt to it all. If you do choose to let me take care of your baby, whether it be for the day or for a long stay, please know they are in the safest possible place they can be 💖. Thank you, and God bless.
About: I've had dogs my entire life so I have experience with dogs of all ages. I currently have a dog and two cats, and I'm also trusted in my neighborhood and amongst family and friends as someone to watch their animals when they're gone. Im a full time college student but I usually always have my own animals in my bedroom with me, sitting under (or on top of) my desk while I work. I have a friendly dog who absolutely loves play dates, so your dog would never get bored. My backyard is quite large so the dogs have tons of room to run around and play. The fences are regularly checked for holes under them to ensure our dog can't get out. I also have two large cat cages in my home where each of my cats sleep, but if needed, they can sleep in the same cage and the other one can be used to provide your pet some privacy, with their own food and water dishes. I have many many many interactive cat toys so even while i'm working, they can play with the toys that are attached to my desk and walls, along with scratching posts.
“Sarah and her family were so amazing with my cat Finnegan! I have never before had such an amazing experience with a sitter. Sarah sent photos and updates and Finnegan was so so happy with all the other animals. I cannot speak more highly of her and her kid's care and compassion with animals!”
About: Hi there! I’m Alex and I’m 34 years old and I have been training for 13 years . I’ve been training from aggressive/ reactive dogs to obedience for 13 years. I specialize in rehab of rescues and dogs that have been through abuse or trauma. No dog is a lost cause, it’s whether you’re willing to put in the work. Both my dogs are dog friendly and have come to housesits for clients before. My dogs are rescues, and their history before I got them is still very ambiguous. I just recently got another dog and he is very different in personality. My dog right before her ( RIP) was my inspiration for working with dogs. His soul was so beautiful. When I first got him he had a fear of almost everything. He was fear aggressive with everyone especially men. He didn’t know what grass was because he came from the streets of San Leandro. He was a therapy and service dog and lead a life of helping others, and that’s something I want to continue on in his honor. My dog is a 88 lb AmStaff/ Red Heeler Cattle Dog. My dog loves other animals and loves meeting new people and dogs. I love all animals and have a special place for dogs. I’ve love to meet some new doggy friends and be of service however you need me. I can drop in, train or dog walk, whatever you need. I love animals and want to immerse myself in the awesomeness that is dogs and pets. My style least invasive minimally aversive or LIMA. I will always start with a base line of a slip lead. I can then make that into a head collar or harness if need be. If the owner wants to try any other tools, I ask that they request of me directly, otherwise i will work with my baseline. I specialize in reactive and fear aggressive dogs and wolf hybrids. I have also done obedience, puppy classes, desensitization. I have four prongs to my training: two group options and two solo options. the two groups types would be group classes with other dogs and their owners, and then pack walks, where i take dogs for an hour with me for a walk with multiple dogs and me. The solo options would be walk/trains where I take the dog for an hour and we drill out training together in relevant areas to the client. If I end up working with you a review is greatly appreciated. I have a full time job as a trainer through a corporate pet industry entity and want to switch to working for myself full time because I just can’t get enough of training! I will be able to do walks, training, and drop ins. I live in an apartment so I can’t have other dogs where I live.
About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for pets of all kinds — from playful puppies, energetic dogs to senior pets who need a little extra love. Animals have always been a big part of our family, and we’ve been surrounded by friends, neighbors, and relatives who trust us to care for their pets while they’re working or traveling. I’m responsible and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or simply offering companionship, I make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved! Currently, I work from home running our family business, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for pets. Caring for animals fits naturally into our daily routine. My twin daughters love to help shower pets with affection, and there’s always someone around to give walks, cuddles, or playtime. Pets blend seamlessly into our home life. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard with lots of room to run and play safely. Inside, pets can relax in a calm, loving environment alongside our sweet 2 year old cat. She is social and used to being around other pets, but I always supervise and take time to make sure every guest feels secure and at ease. All pets must be up to date on vaccinations. Any dogs that show aggression to people or other dogs will be separated and/or crated.
“Amber and her husband are great people and they took amazing care of my cat. They texted me updates and pictures frequently and I felt like I was there. Thank you so much to them and would 11/10 recommend.”

“Susan and Miguel are awesome. Susan understands Maya and her tendencies. She’s very accommodating to Maya’s needs. Maya is getting very comfortable with her family. I’m happy to see she’s making friends.”
“Kristine was very sweet to Maya. She made sure to ask questions first time. She let her warm up to her. Maya was on her lap within 10 minutes. A gate was set up at the door, per our request.”
“Rayann took great care of Scamper during the daytime boarding stay. The service was really good, and I truly appreciated the frequent updates and photos throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind. She also followed all the requests and instructions I shared for Scamper’s care. Overall, it was a smooth and positive experience, and I would definitely recommend Rayann to others looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”

Whether your companion has medical conditions, anxiety, or simply thrives on routine and structure, I deliver high-quality, attentive service with compassion and precision. I’m trained in pet CPR, fully capable of administering medications (oral, topical, or injectable), and committed to following your care instructions down to the last detail. Every pet in my care is treated as an individual, with their own routine, preferences, and personality respected and nurtured.

There’s no overcrowding, no pack-style dynamics, and no risk of neglect or exposure to unnecessary stress, illness, or injury that often comes with kennel-style boarding.

About: I have spent a lot of time pet sitting family dogs, including powerful breeds like Pitbulls, Belgian Malinois, and German Shepherds. This hands-on experience taught me exactly how important structure and leash training are for a safe environment. Being a shorter person, I prefer to specialize in walking small dogs, medium dogs, or larger dogs who are already trained on the leash and calm when seeing others. Although I do have experience walking dogs who pull or get too excited, I want to ensure safety for your pet, myself, and others around me. However, if your larger pup is still working on their leash manners, I am more than happy to care for them entirely at home, focusing on indoor playtime, backyard fun, and tons of love! I am also a cat mom of 4 and love all types of cats. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I am able to offer open availability for your pets. Whether your pup or kitten needs a last-minute check-in, a mid-day walk or your pet requires strict, timely medication schedules, I am around to help. From Monday-Friday, I may be unavailable to do drop-in or walks until 1pm, unless it’s before 8am. Please connect with me & I will let you know if I can! When I am in your home, safety and respect for your space are my priorities. I treat your home with care, ensuring doors are securely locked, gates are latched, and your home is left exactly as I found it. I can follow strict instructions to ensure that your pet’s needs are met. I also love sending quick photo updates with every visit, so you have total peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. My home is also equipped to handle pets safely and comfortably. I have a completely fenced backyard for secure outdoor playtime and bathroom breaks. To ensure everyone's safety, I also have a dedicated den space, allowing me to keep guest pets entirely separate from my four cats whenever needed. This setup ensures a stress free environment for both your pet and my own.
“Your pet will be in great care with Dalene. She took my dog in as one of her own and I felt at ease while my dog was being cared for. You can tell she loves all the pets that’s came across her way.

About: They aren't just pets, they're family. Our furbabies deserve to be loved and taken care of, after 20+ years of experience with anything from cats to goldfish I believe I'm the lady for the job lol I'm currently working from home in a quiet environment and some extra time. I would love to fill that time providing care for you furbaby when you have to be away. Although I live in an townhome apartment complex, my home is very spacious. There are areas just outside my door where I can take them to relieve themselves throughout the day and large patio if your baby loves to lay out in the sun. I live in a lax neighborhood with several nearby dog parks where I can take them on walks to stretch their legs and blow off some steam before you head home after a long day.
“Chloe has adjusted so well with Debbie and Gerry! Today was our move day and it took a little longer than expected they were both so gracious and took care of Chloe a little longer. These two are the Best!!”

About: I’ve worked at a Dog daycare/ boarding facility for 3+ years where we groomed, bathed, gave meds, played with, and even snuggled the dogs. I have 4 German Shepherds of my own at home that I love dearly and 2 cats as well :). I am a big animal lover and think all animals deserve to be loved no matter what size or breed. I am very experienced with dogs and cats and will do my best to cater to your needs and make sure your fur baby is always happy with me :) I have a full time job where I’m able to pic my own schedules so whenever you need me to be available I can always make it work around my schedule no problem! I am very flexible!! To keep your pet comfortable in your home, I love making homemade allergy free dog treats (especially during the summer when it’s hot). If it’s my first time meeting your dog I will be sure to give him as much space/time needed to get used to me especially if they’re shy. I will stick closely to their daily routine, Consistency is a big thing. I will make sure to give the dog any attention but on their terms so they’re fully comfortable with me and pay close attention to their body language.

“Melissa is an excellent dog walker who provides outstanding service. She is punctual, dependable, and clearly dedicated to the well-being of the dogs in her care. My dog always returns happy and well-exercised, and her communication and professionalism make scheduling effortless. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and responsible dog walker.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities and truly love spending time with animals. I’m a patient, dependable, and attentive caregiver who treats every pet like family. My dogs have always been a huge part of my life, including my sweet RayRay, who taught me so much about patience, love, and the special bond we share with our pets. I recently adopted my French Bulldog, Ichabod (“Iggy”), and I’m continuing to learn and understand each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), or lots of love and attention, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I love being able to include pets in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around making sure they get the care, attention, and love they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or just keeping them company, I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Creating a safe and comfortable space for pets is very important to me. I know how much trust it takes to leave someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I pay attention to the little things — their habits, boundaries, and what helps them feel relaxed. In my home or yours, I’ll treat your pet and your space with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels secure, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

Whether your companion has medical conditions, anxiety, or simply thrives on routine and structure, I deliver high-quality, attentive service with compassion and precision. I’m trained in pet CPR, fully capable of administering medications (oral, topical, or injectable), and committed to following your care instructions down to the last detail. Every pet in my care is treated as an individual, with their own routine, preferences, and personality respected and nurtured. My home is a calm, child free environment impeccably clean, fully fenced, and designed with your pet’s safety and comfort in mind. Just steps away from a quiet local park, it’s perfect for peaceful, private walks tailored to your pet’s pace and energy level. My services are designed for owners who want true, individualized care — not just a place to drop the dog off. There’s no overcrowding, no pack-style dynamics, and no risk of neglect or exposure to unnecessary stress, illness, or injury that often comes with kennel-style boarding. I understand that for many, pets are family, and I believe they deserve a level of care that reflects that. Whether you’re traveling, working, or just need an extra hand, I provide peace of mind by offering the kind of care I’d want for my own beloved companions: warm, structured, and reliably exceptional. Let’s make sure your dog’s time away from you feels like a second home — one that’s safe, serene, and completely in tune with their needs 💕✨ (I’m not limited to Dogs, and Cats, I love and have experience in all pet types ) Quality✨ > Quantity 💕Ask me about a discount on your Second Booking💕 Link for $20 off NEW rover customers https://www.rover.com/sit/jasmir75389 Pet care fits so naturally into my life because my boyfriend works from home and takes care of the bills, which gives me the freedom to focus on doing what I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I love being able to give dogs and cats the attention, love, and care they need, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. For me, this isn’t just work, it’s something that genuinely makes me happy!🥹💕 I provide pet care in my home, which is fully fenced and safe for both dogs and cats to roam and play freely. I do not have children, which allows me to focus entirely on giving pets the attention, love, and supervision they need. I take no more than 2 pets at a time( I have a pet of my own) to ensure that they receive personalized care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply companionship, I make sure every animal in my care feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for in a secure and nurturing environment🎀
“Courtni was so great! She was super responsive, clearly communicated, and kept me up-to-date! I didn’t have to do any guessing or worrying. She gave me great updates along the way, and was so wonderful with my two dogs. She sent pictures and even tracked her how far they walked. Courtney was fantastic and I would highly recommend her!”

“Naia is lovely for people and pups alike. She was kind enough to listen to my worries and report back on them after walks in early days. Now that we're having her walk out pup more regularly they have gotten into a rhythm with each other and I can tell my doggie enjoys her outings. Naia is always on time as well. Working with her is an easy experience for such an important job.”
About: Since I was a little girl, I have always had a ♥ for animals. I've cared for dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, ducks, chickens, rabbits, and a mini pig. A plus for me is that I have been a foster for Animal Rescue of Tracy for 10+ years now, so I have experience with all sorts of dogs and cats, from those who need special medication to rambunctious dogs to newborn kittens. There is no animal you can give me that I will not love, pet, cuddle, and care for. 🌷 I am a responsible 25 year old who has been caring for animals my whole life. This is my first Rover account, but I have been pet sitting in the Tracy community for 10 years. I live on 1.5 acres with 25 + animals, so I am very experienced and would love to help out with your furry friends! :) I'm currently working part-time with the majority of my work being remote so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! 🏡 I live on 1.5 acres of property so your dogs will have plenty of space to run around, play, and relieve themselves. Depending on your dog's friendliness, they can remain inside with my two small dogs, or I can keep them in our supervised dog run area just for them. If you have cats, they will be contained in their own area in my house so that they do not run and hide, as new environments tend to cause anxiety. 🏠 If house sitting, I make the animals feel as comfortable as possible to ease any stress of their owners being away. Pets & play are always guaranteed. I also send pictures everyday & when asked! ⭐ My routine is simple: follow your directions on feeding, walking, medication if needed, and I will handle the other most important part: giving them lots of love!

“Anissa came and walked my dog for a couple days and agreed to a meet and greet to discuss expectations beforehand. She was very professional and kind to me and my dog Freya. She asked about all sorts of habits and made sure to give my baby not only the exercise but lunch and refilled her water, she also sent pictures of the walk. Literally the best experience I could have hoped for. I will be booking her again! And I would recommend her.”

“Jennifer gave us updates regularly about how our pup was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with pick up and drop off times. Our dog had a great visit with her. Thanks !”
“We were very grateful to find someone that loves dogs and has a passion for caring for them when their owners need to be away. Our dog was safe & well taken care of. Thank you Monisa & David!”
“Cheridyn & Gil were great taking in our dog on short notice after being recommended by our previous sitter who had relocated. They were super responsive and communicative, I can tell our girl was in good care. Will be rebooking with them in the future!”
“Justine did an amazing job with Willa. This was Willa's first boarding so that is always a little nerve-wracking but Justine was very communicative the whole time. Will be booking again in the near future.”
“Bridget took great care of our two dogs while we were on vacation. She constantly gave us updates and sent pictures of them being their happy selves. Great communication and eased our worries with our rescue GS. Thank you!”
“Nathan and family were great! Very communicative and our dog seemed right at home! Which is huge because she has high anxiety but she loved it with Nathan and crew. Will definitely be rebooking soon.”
“Rochelle and her family were great. She responds quickly and sends updates. Lots of kids in the home to love on your pet and befriend them. My little pup seemed happy during her stay and I would send her back!”
“Amazing! From the meet and greet to the drop off, the stay and the pick up, Angela was simply amazing throughout. Every update had fun details and every picture sent showed my baby’s happy face. We will definitely ask to avail of her services again!”
“She was great!! Got tons of updates which is what I'm looking for in a Rover! My dog had a lot of furry friends to play with all week and all the photos had her with her tail up and outside, running around and soaking up the Sun. It's like a all day play date for your dog! My only complaint is I think my dog likes the Rover more than me! I'm definitely going to be a returning customer. She is highly recomended!”
“Dana and her family were everything I could have hoped for and more when leaving my dog for a trip. They sent constant updates, pictures, videos and treated my pup like he was their own. I picked him up and he was happier than ever! I highly recommend using them for any of your doggy needs!”
“Our goldendoodle had a wonderful time with Linh and Torrey! They sent us multiple photos and videos every day and took him to the park to play ball. We appreciated all the media while he was away. We could tell he really enjoyed it there.”
“Roscoe thoroughly enjoyed his stay with Reyes. Reyes was exceptionally accommodating to Roscoe's needs. He kindly kept us informed of Roscoe's well-being through texts and sent us pictures of our dog. Despite our late arrival due to traffic, Reyes was very understanding. I wholeheartedly recommend Reyes as a dog sitter.”
“Julie was very kind to Reepicheep and it was clear she wanted her to be comfortable. Caring for a senior cat with multiple medical conditions can be challenging, and I’ve realized that I personally value very detailed communication throughout a stay.”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of experience volunteering with dog rescues, fostering dogs, and caring for pups of all personalities. I also founded a nonprofit dog rescue to help street dogs in India, so providing safe, loving care isn't just something I do, it's a big part of my life. I'm especially experienced with shy, fearful dogs and dogs with medical needs, so I understand the importance of patience, routine, and paying attention to the little things that help a dog feel secure. I welcome dog-friendly adult dogs into my home, where they'll be treated like family. Your pup will enjoy multiple walks each day, plenty of playtime and cuddles, lots of photo updates, and almost constant companionship. I mostly work from home with occasional outings of about 3 to 4 hours when necessary. My goal is for every dog to have their own little vacation while you're away, with plenty of love, enrichment, and personalized care, so you can relax knowing they're happy, safe, and well cared for. easily adapt to each dog's routine and individual needs. A typical day includes a walk first thing in the morning, another around lunchtime, one in the evening, and a final walk before bedtime. Dogs are fed twice a day (or according to their normal schedule), with lots of playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and potty breaks throughout the day. My goal is to keep your dog comfortable by maintaining a routine that's as close as possible to what they're used to at home. Every dog adjusts to a new environment differently, so I always let them set the pace. I give new dogs time to decompress, explore, and get comfortable without overwhelming them. Building trust comes first. I follow your dog's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. My home is calm, safe, and dog-friendly, and I closely supervise interactions to make sure every dog feels secure. My goal is to create a low-stress environment where your dog can relax, feel at home, and enjoy their stay.
“This was our first time leaving Cooper with someone for the night and we couldn’t have found a better sitter! They were so honest and so quick to provide updates to reassure us. Even though he couldn’t sleep well the first night, they made sure to comfort him and by the second night, it was like he found a second home. Their constant updates including pictures really warmed our heart and we definitely will only be leaving cooper with them as our first choice whenever we need a sitter!”
“Stephanie and her family took exceptionally good care of my 19 month old goldendoodle. I hope they will let him stay again. Thank you for everything! Love Noa and Anthony.”
“Highly Recommend!!! Kathryn and her family treated my pup Shadow like one of their own. Couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you for taking such great care and giving her all the love while I was away.”
