About: I’ve trained multiple dogs for obedience & hunting, which I’ve dedicated several months to do for each pup. I have a 10 year old Chesapeake Bay Retriever that’s very well trained and well behaved. I work from home, so I’m here all day unless I go out for something at the store or gym. If gone, I always let the dog roam free and keep the tv on for him. Naturally I play with the pup several times a day. My office is connected to the backyard, so I can throw the ball or play often.

She is so sweet and attentive, and it gives me complete peace of mind knowing my pup is in her hands. I highly recommend Kara to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and truly exceptional dog sitter!”


“Kathryn and Jeremy were great, can't recommend them enough. They were extremely communicative both before Bella's stay and during, updating us with pictures etc throughout the day. The couple are very well versed in dog behavior/needs and asked all the right questions to make us feel confident Bella was going to be well cared for and safe. When we picked Bella up she was very comfortable in their home and was resting with Kathryn and Jeremy. If you are looking for trustworthy couple to watch your pup with love and attention, this is it!”

About: I have a great, rambunctious 6-year-old Golden Retriever named Cobie, and previously had another wonderful, loving Golden Retriever named Max, who we cared for well into his old age--17! I have taken care of dogs for friends and family all throughout my life, and always shower them with all the love in the world! I am currently in graduate school, but I am available for late afternoons or evenings and nights during the week, and anytime during the weekend! I always ensure safety of the dog and the home, whether that be crates, blocking off parts of the house, and following set rules and routines. Just as important is love and gentleness, doing my best to build a dog's trust.

“Susan was great with my 2 cats. She sent pictures of them every day and spent time visiting and playing with them. She also let me know when there were a couple of other issues at my house and she handled them for me. I would highly recommend her as she is really good with pets. I would definitely book with her again.”

“Stephanie was wonderful! She checked in with my two boys (Mr.Bean and Franklin) on time each day and provided me with updates. I knew they were safe and extremely well taken care of while I was out of town. Stephanie was timely, communicative, friendly, and followed their feeding instructions without missing a beat! I will definitely be booking again.”


“Julie took amazing care of my very shy cat Callie while I was away for a few days. She sent daily updates/pictures, and Callie took to her very well. She even brought her some extra toys to play with. This was our first time using a pet-sitter, and Julie had made this experience very easy and comfortable. I’m very grateful that we have found her, and I look forward to using her again in the future for my future travels.”


“Darya was very punctual and attentive to my two kitties while I was away. She provided great peace of mind because of the care she showed. Will certainly try to re-book with her for our next trip.”

“My seconding time booking Deborah and she’s great! Follows the routine. And plays and loves on your pet! The first thing she said to me once I rebooked with her was “I’m so excited to see her again.” which is something very heartwarming to see when you’re leaving your pet to be taken care of by someone.”

“Maria did exceptional with my baby Snoopy! I was really scared since he suffers from extreme anxiety (He’s a rescue dog). He did great with Maria. She kept me informed and would send me pictures.

About: I’ve always had pets growing up. Over the past 20 years I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, rabbits, turtles, snakes, and hamsters. I love animals more than most humans. My sister is also a vet which is super handy to have. I currently work from home so I can be present and then I have down time I can play and tend to my furry house guest. I have a room for my dogs with a very bring crate, beds and toys. When I have furry guests I can always alternate my dogs in the room or the furry guest into that room. They could also wonder around the apartment as well. My building complex also has a dog park which is nice to run around and play.

“Kristen was great with our 3 month old puppy. She was flexible, sent us plenty of pictures, and responded quickly. It was a serene getaway for him and he looked very comfortable in her home. She took him on walks and he walked really well with her. On the second day drop off Kameron was wagging his tail as we walked inside and went straight for a prized green toy he loved. The pictures she sent were beautiful and she was very easy to talk to. I highly recommend her would absolutely use her again.”

“Hailey was great. Coming from out-of-town to attend a family gathering, we could not meet her in advance, but our little maltipoo seemed comfortable with her right away and came out smiling after an afternoon with her and her dogs in her quiet, friendly neighborhood.”

“Ariadne did a great job caring for our puppy for a day on short notice! It's easy to tell that she loves animals and had a great time playing with our pup. Her fenced in backyard was an excellent and safe environment for our small dog.”

“Jenna was great with our anxious and jumpy pup. She took him on walks, spent good time outdoors, sent regular updates, and had a great, calming demeanor with him. She was very flexible even when we came to her last minute. Definitely recommend!”

“Michelle and her husband are wonderful. I am so lucky to have found such kind and caring people to take care of my dog. They send picture updates throughout the day which is nice to have and provide a doggie "report card" at the end of the day as well. I know my dog is in good hands when I drop him off. I would highly recommend them.”

He was reliable, patient, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was in good hands. I would 100% hire Roger again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and great with dogs! 🐾❤️”

I like to believe this is a testament to Darya’s positive aura. We are so glad we found her!”
