“Yajaira was very accommodating with the drop off and pick up times. My pup Rain was not as excited to see me as I thought she would be so she obviously was well taken care of and comfortable in Yajaira's home. Much better option than the kennel based boarding. Thank you Yajaira for loving my pup for the week.”

“We had such a great experience with Jennifer who care of our dog, Daisy, for almost a week. Jennifer was very communicative throughout the week - keeping us updated throughout our trip with thoughtful messages and plenty of photos showing Daisy relaxed, happy, and clearly enjoying her time with Jennifer and her family. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Daisy was in such caring and capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again—highly recommended!”

“We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.”

“Chestnut had a wonderful experience. I appreciated Lilliana sending me daily pictures of Chestnut so my daughters could see him enjoying his stay. Thank you again Lilliana for taking such great care of chestnut.”
“Enrique H. was... no is absolutely amazing! He was very kind to our puppy. We were very nervous leaving our lil one for the first time, but his experience, set up of his house, and communication skills made it easy for us to trust he would take good care of our puppy. If you are looking for someone to take care of your high energy puppy, Enrique H. is the one!”


“Victoria did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Kujo! She made sure all the pets were safe, gave him plenty of love and attention, and treated him like one of her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. I highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!”

“Addie was an absolute gem & was so welcoming to my Beagle puppy! She sent me cute photos, has a designated space for the dogs, & a great yard for running around. She also took my dog on walks and has lovely children for my pup to play with. I really appreciate her time and definitely hope to book with her again in the near future. With gratitude, Katrina”


“This is Shadows second time staying with Erika and she had a blast! Erika sent pictures and updates everyday of her stay. Erika is easy to keep in contact with and responds very quickly. 10/10 would book again!”

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. I have no issues letting the dog outside whenever they’d like.
“Kara is absolutely amazing! She has watched my dog many times, and every experience has been wonderful. She’s great with my dog, incredibly patient, and genuinely caring. I can always trust that my dog is well taken care of, loved, and treated like family when she’s with Kara. 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!”

“Contacted James kinda last minute. We met that evening and I dropped my dog off the following night. He must've had fun cause when I picked up up the following evening he was tired from all the playtime. Would definitely use again”

“We were looking for a warm family to take care of our French bulldog, Rueben. Nicole and Joseph’s family welcomed and doted on him the entire time he was in their care. Plenty of walks, snuggles and dog play dates were had! We look forward to rebooking with them in the future!”

“Saori was great. Our one year old lab was in heaven at their place. We received a puppy that was well cared for and had gotten a lot of socialization and exercise is a safe environment.”

“We had a repeat stay for one of our dogs with Jill and her family when we were away. Jill maintained consistent communication with updates and photos. She reached out if there were any questions, and we can’t say this enough— we knew we were in good hands! We felt like our dog received the same amount of care and attention that he would receive from us at home. He was loved and pampered during his stay. Thank you for another great stay, Jill! :)”
“Elizabeth was amazing! We truly could not have asked for a better boarding experience. Our dog Luna is pretty nervous around new people, but Elizabeth and her family created a safe, comfortable environment that allowed Luna to come out of her shell. The regular updates and photos we received throughout our trip were much appreciated. I would recommend Elizabeth to any dog owner in a heartbeat 🐾”

I just took him home and he is very relaxed and playful. I am very satisfied and will definitely book her again!”


About: With two rescue cats of my own, I have come to learn an important lesson in cat-human relationships! Cats dominate the relationships 100%. And that is to be respected! Whether your kitty is a buiscuit making-headbutting love bug, or a spicy/timid buddy, I will cater to their needs! I’m not afraid of getting down and dirty deep cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, or even entertaining the crazy zoomies. I will love and care for your cat(s) as my own!
About: I’ve had pets of all kind since the age of 4 and taken love for them since. I’ve had about 5 dogs, 4 birds 3 red ear slider turtles, multiple fishes and 1 cat throughout. I work full time as a properties manager. But in my spare time I would like to walk some dog as i truest enjoy walks, sitting and a fun time. I would care for your pest as if they were my own(of course respecting all your standards). Communication is key as I would like all expectations to be met and transparency across. To be trusted with a love one is a responsibility I take very seriously
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.

“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.”


“I'm very thankful for Katie, she was able to watch our 18 year old senior kitty on two occasions while we were away. She kept us updated through the app and sent pics of him after each visit. She was also able to give him his insulin and other medication, which was amazing and helped put us at ease. Overall, she was great and I would highly recommend her!”


“She was so nice. She suggested leaving the TV on since she (the kitty) was being so shy and it helped. Everything was done well and on time each day. I would recommend and use her again.”


“Hunter was great with my not-so-friendly cat. She was very punctual with her visits and sent great updates with pics of my cat. She even came during a snowstorm! Would definitely work with Hunter again and highly recommend her for reliable, caring pet sitting. Thanks Hunter!”


“This is my second time booking Stephanie to look after my two boys while I’m traveling. She is wonderful! And efficient. One of my boys, who is usually scared of strangers, warmed up to her which made my time away less stressful. I will continue to book with Stephanie! She is friendly and professional!”

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.

“I’m so glad we found Stephanie! I was a little nervous because I wasn’t going to have time to meet her before leaving my dog with her but as soon as I met her it was clear I had nothing to worry about. My dog, who sometimes has separation anxiety, didn’t even look back at me when he walked away with Stephanie lol! She went so above and beyond and reall”

About: I have loved dogs since I was a child. Which led me too adopt two beautiful dogs. An Irish doodle and a mini aussie. They are my everything. I have dog sitted for many dogs of different sizes and breeds. Will take care of them as if they were my babies :) I am available everyday after 2 in the afternoon and if you want me too dog sit in the morning you can let me know ahead of time and I will try to make it possible. There are some days where I am off and it would be a pleasure to babysit your babies :) I have a routine for my dogs which include three hours of playtime distrubuted throughout the day and I try to take them to the dog park twice a weeks.

If you have a routine that you would like me to follow please let me know and how you would like me to feed your dogs :)

“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. She was very caring, gentle and comforting. Snoopy did very well with transition. I will definitely rebook with Maria.”

“Max seemed to have a great first day of daycare at Mariana's. He came come happy and tired. Mariana sent lots of pictures and communicated promptly throughout the entire booking process. Will definitely book again!”

“Noemi is incredible! She made Blue and I feel right at home. Her children are also incredibly sweet and loving. Blue had a fantastic time and took advantage of her large fenced in yard. I can tell he had a great time as he took a hearty nap as soon as we got home :) Thank you for all you do Noemi! Looking forward to return.”

“I’m always appreciative for Will. He goes way above and beyond to make sure Romeo is cared for and loved. He’s always so kind and thoughtful when giving care to my little guy. Thank you so much Will and I will be using your services again! ?”

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! 🐾❤️”

“Darya is always on time, always accommodating to my changing schedule as a medical professional, and always so sweet with my dog Wally. As a rescue, Wally tends to be suspicious of strangers when first meeting them. But when he first met Darya, he approached her with ease. I like to believe this is a testament to Darya’s positive aura. We are so glad we found her!”

About: I have over 7 years of experience taking care of both my own fur babies along with friends and family. This includes walking, exercising, bathing, feeding (including needed medications). I am currently working day shifts in operations (with rotating open weekend availability) and I’d love to exercise/tend your fur babies. I’m open to regular schedules or even random check ins if you’re just busy/stressed and need some quiet space! I love having a conversation with pet parents about what their current routine is, what’s working/not working, if their pet is social, and what they expect from myself. I think it’s only respectful and mindful of safety, to properly speak of these key points to create a trusting pet sitter relationship.

The environment will be your own home. Your pet will not feel displaced, and will remain comfortable in his or her own bed. I understand that familiarity is key when owners are away.

“Bruce B and Carolyn did an amazing job taking care of my fur babies, Blizzard-Kareem and Bounty-Killa. I was traveling out of the country and my other Dogsitter cancelled on me at the last minute, so I was so nervous to leave my dogs with just anybody. I read all the positive reviews for Bruce and thought I would give him a try. From the meet and greet, I knew they were the right fit. While I was out of the country, they kept me updated with pictures and what they did everyday. I was so relaxed knowing that they were in good hands. I will definitely use them as a regular sitter.”

Also they never left her alone, which I know can’t always be the case, but was really great for Winnie’s anxiety. I would definitely recommend Paola to others looking for a great sitter!”

“Rod was great! He sent me several pictures a day of my dog Ace. He even watched him an extra day after I had flight issues and was very understanding. 10/10 service and would book him again!”
