Highly-rated overnight sitters - Baldwin
“Joe & Reanaleena did a great job watching Huk for us while we went on a family vacation. It was his first time staying away and we were not sure how he would respond. But they sent us pictures each day and gave updates on him. This helped so much relieve our concerns. We appreciate their care and will definitely use again when needed. Thank you!”
“Lindsey and Jose took amazing care of my fur baby! I ended up dropping her off with an upset stomach after dealing with it for a few days and Lindsey had no problem at all with it and was so kind and caring about it! If you need to leave your senior dog(s) with someone you can trust Lindsey is the woman! She is very flexible and provides daily updates! My doggo looked like she had a very fun time sunbathing in the fenced yard and napping on the couch with them. She even had her own little spot in her daughter’s bedroom! I highly recommend Lindsey and would gladly use her as my sitter again in the future!”
“Lee was amazing! She even arranged a meet and greet the day before to make sure everything was squared away for the stay. She stayed in touch every day with pictures and made our vacation worry free.”
“Creasida and family were fantastic! They came through for me and Sweetness when we were in a crutch - our usual sitter was out of town. Sweetness had such a great time with their 2 girls. They have a great yard with plenty of space for the girls to run and play. Their home is very pet friendly. Creasida shared several pics and updates throughout the stay. Will definitely use them again! Thank you both!!”
“Nautica is super nice and it is clear that she loves taking care of dogs! They have a good sized fenced yard and dogs of their own that my pup loved to play with. Great communication and lots of photos and videos. Thank you!”
“She took great care of my dog! He came back smelling better than when he was dropped off lol. She made sure to keep me updated on how he was doing the whole time with pictures. Highly recommend and would book again.”
“Can always count on Nuttawadee to take care of Charlie! We get plenty of pictures while we are away, and Charlie loves to play with Summer. The only dog sitter we will go to!”
“Haylie took amazing care of our Millie girl. She sent updates each day and made Millie comfortable as it was her first time away from home. She came home happy and lively and I can tell she had a great time. I can’t thank you enough !”
“Natalie was great with my dog and she flexible with times. She went cute pics and videos throughout my dogs stay. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a place for your pup.”
“Cassandra was amazing with my pup. He is an anxious boy and she took all the steps to ensure he was calm and felt cared for. She sent just the right amount of updates and even returned him with new toys and bones. Happy to have found her!”
“Therisa was great! This was my first time boarding my little man and she kept me informed the whole time with tests and pictures. She truly loves the dogs she cares for and makes sure they are comfortable and happy.”
“I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Jodi and the care she gave my dog, Evy. She kept me updated throughout the day with photos and messages about all the fun activities they enjoyed. Jodi truly created a safe, loving environment for dogs, and I felt completely at ease knowing Evy was in such great hands.”
“Taniya was great! She sent lots of pictures and videos throughout Sky’s stay. She replies very quickly and we felt safe leaving Sky with her for the weekend. We will definitely be booking with her again for our future boarding needs. Sky seemed very happy throughout her stay!!”
“Katrina and her girls were awesome! This was our first time leaving for a vacation since we adopted our dog so of course we were a little nervous. Katrina and her family immediately put us at ease. Our pound pup was nervous upon arrival but Katrina met us at the door with treats and knew just what to do to chill our dog out. She has a beautiful property with lots of room for our dog to run and sniff. While we were gone Katrina kept us updated with how our pup was doing and sent us plenty of pictures. If I could give more stars I would! We plan on trusting our Izzy with Katrina and her family from here on out.”
“My chihuahua and I haven't been a part in forever. When my family and I went on a one week trip, I knew I had to find the perfect dog sitter. My dog is picky and I was worried, but she was immediately comfortable at crystals house. She is so kind and attentive, and became best friends with my chihuahua. She was comfortable around everyone in the household and very well taken care of. Will certainly be using her services in the future and am beyond thankful for her and her family. Thank you SO much”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all varieties for as long as I can remember . My heart will always have a special love for the big dogs I will say. I currently have a friendly 3 year old Shepard mix at home with me, so please keep that in mind when booking with me. He does love to play and your dogs will enjoy running around the fully fenced in back yard with him. I do have experience with puppy training as well. One of my favorite things is being able to teach a dog a new trick . I’ve got a huge heart for animals and would love to help give someone the peace of mind that their fur babies are being well taken care of while out of town . I currently work from home M-F so it makes boarding super easy for me logistic wise. I am available for all other services I would need to travel for after 4pm. Weekends I have free availability . I have a fully fenced in yard for the pups to all run around in and burn off energy. I do crate my animals when I’m leaving my house for extended periods of time to avoid accidents. I have an extra medium size crate already at my house, anything larger I would need yours for the duration of stay. If your dog is leash trained I live in a good neighborhood and enjoy taking mine on at least one daily walk . Play time is essential in my house and if your dog is simply a cuddle bug that’s always top tier in my book.

About: I have been taking care of animals all my life.. I have been the sole owner/operator for the past 10 years of a local pet sitting & walking business. I have taken care of all types and sizes of dogs, from small chihuahua size to small or large laberdoodles to great danes. I have experience in working with dogs who are stubborn eaters, and regular age dogs to senior dogs who require medication and extra care. My rates are very competitive. From a $35 daily walk/check in while at work or have a longer event to attend to a standard overnight which includes a 10 hour overnight stay, like 8pm-6am with 1 mid day potty/meal break which is $85 If you need a longer overnight stay like 20 hours round the clock/constant concierge care at your house then the rate will be $100 per night. I have a fabulous list of references from clients that have been with me for anywhere from 4 to the full 10 years in operation. I'm currently only doing 1 weekly dog walking job, unfortunately due to the heartbreaking recent loss of one of my longest daily walking and sitting clients. My current daily walking job is only 3 days a week, any 3 days between M-F and is only for 30/35 mins and can be done anytime between 11am to 3pm. The rest of the time I am currently available and due to the flexibility of the current job, I have a very open availability. I only take dogs on leashed walks and during temperatures that are safe for the dog's health. I'm very respectful of what the parents want and specific details for the happiness of their dog. I'm very attentive when I'm with the dog to make sure they are safe at all times. I do in client's home sitting for almost all my clients, and they live it. They will verify trustworthiness, loyalty and respect of their home. I also trying to make it affordable compared to the average median for Jacksonville, FL.
“Katie did an amazing job with my fur babies, I will totally be using her again. I came home to a clean house with everything done (food, water, litter boxes) even medication which not everyone can do. All kitties have 5 meows too! Great to be able to leave town and know your home and babies are safe and cared for just like you would.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats of all varieties for as long as I can remember . If it wasn’t a cat growing up in the house with me , it was the neighborhood strays getting a little extra loving. I am very particular about litter boxes I will say, I have to clean it daily / every other day or the smell is a no go for me. I do have a friendly Shepard mix at home with me so please keep that in mind with booking cats with me .
“Hailey was awesome at accommodating all our unexpected issues that came up because my cats were being shipped from Cali to VA straight to her and the driver arrived past midnight yet she stayed up and was there to accept them! She sent updates and pictures daily and was ready to let me extend our cats stay when things took longer to get established than expected! All in all I had no worries and feel like my cats are well taken care of! Definitely recommend her!”
About: I’m a caring and dependable pet lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I’m committed to giving each one the individual attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, or lots of cuddles, or your cat prefers a calm environment, companionship, and a little extra patience, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications or special instructions, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them like my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of care!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Baldwin
“Thanos had a great time at doggy daycare with Joseph and Reanaleena! He has a ton of energy and was happy and exhausted when I picked him up. Will definitely book again!”
About: With over 12 years of petcare experience and multiple indoor pets myself, I think it's safe to say that I love animals! Situated on a 1 acre property, with a fenced front yard, this could be your pets getaway while you get away! Because I have grooming and training experience, I could be your one stop drop! I am a freelance pet artist, therefore I have plenty of time to have fun and interact with my animals! We enjoy walking in the lovely Baldwin bike trial and playing in the yard! I'm practically available all day any day! I have a fenced front yard and 4 lovely rough coated collies! My dogs are very social and love to play! Fun in the sun during the day and crated at night! For pick ups I currently have a Ruffland intermediate kennel for car rides to keep your dog as safe as possible!
“Carole is overall a wonderful person. Loved interacting with her and she was also great with our puppy. My puppy is not an angel all the time since she is still learning, but Carole had great patience and understanding with her. Played with her plenty of time that she came home exhausted and slept past her dinner time. I highly recommend her if you had any doubts and your cherished baby will be in great hands.”
“They are amazing! Very flexible with the schedule and they take very good care of my puppy! Even giving a bath here and there and working with him on learning how to behave! She is my babysitter”
About: Hi! My name is Jasmine, and I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was surrounded by both large dogs and cats, which helped me become comfortable caring for pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Over the years, I’ve also cared for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors, providing feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I am a responsible, dependable, and compassionate caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. My experience growing up with big dogs taught me how to confidently handle larger breeds, while living with and caring for cats has helped me understand the importance of patience and respecting each pet’s unique personality. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet, along with regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾💕 As I work toward my goal of becoming a nail technician, I have the flexibility to provide attentive and dependable pet care. I’ve always loved animals, and pet sitting is a rewarding way for me to spend my time while building my career. I make it a priority to keep pets on their regular routines and give them plenty of attention, companionship, and care. I provide loving, reliable care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home, hosting them overnight in my home, stopping by for drop-in visits, or taking them on walks, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. For boarding and overnight stays in my home, pets will have a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. My apartment community includes a dog park and a dog washing station, which are great amenities for active dogs. I also have two cats, so any pets staying with me should be comfortable around cats. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, medications (if needed), and lots of affection. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the care they deserve. I treat every pet like family and strive to make their time with me a positive experience.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and love them all from the big lap dogs and small hand babies and a few in between. I have had all different breeds of babies with all different sad stories who are now just trying to live their best lives. I have raised puppies and cared for babies until their end of life and all the stages in between. I have raised abused babies, starved babies, drop offs, puppy mill babies and now some spoiled rotten babies. I am able to accommodate many different needs since I am a stay at home mom and I would love to help you give your babies their best life. Please feel free reach out and ask any questions. I am a stay at home mom so pet care, kid care, husband care is my routine. Most of my dogs eat 2x per day but 1 is on a special diet and has to eat 3. All of my dogs have different diet demands so I feed them all individually so adding another pup to the routine will be very simple so I can meet whatever meal time needs you have. I have a doggy door and fenced yard for potty trained pups and I still take 1 of my babies out through out the day and can help your pup with potty training if needed. My schedule revolves around whatever needs to be done. Since I am a stay at home mom most requests can be accommodated by just asking. I want your baby to feel as loved as mine. I have a LARGE fenced in yard and kids and pups for plenty of entertainment and snuggles. My big dogs are crate trained and crated at night or they would stay up ALL night playing. My little dogs sleep with me. My dogs are family so movie night and activities include everyone. I also carry pet care insurance to cover you and me.
About: I’ve been a lover of dogs & cats since I was a kid. Animals always gravitate towards me. I’ve had pets since I was about 15 years old. I have nothing but time to give to all pets. Your baby will get all the cuddles & butt scratches they can handle! I’m not working at the moment so I have all the time in the world to give to your furry babies! I’m able to do drop in visits/walks at your home. I can also do boarding at my home. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for your baby to run around & play. The house is big enough to keep all the babies separate just in case there are any temperament issues.
“Kristall was so kind to take our 10 week old pup after a very last minute request. Our pup joined us only 4 days before we realized we needed a sitter for about 5 hours. And I forgot to make a request until the night before. Kristall was friendly, sweet, and immediately good with our pup. She obviously loves dogs. When we picked up our pup, he was happy and looking good. He enjoyed the yard and the love. Kristall was flexible with our a bit uncertain return time, too. I recommend Kristall highly and plan to request her again.”
“Benji has separation anxiety, but you would have never known it once he was with Stephanie! I don’t even think he missed us because he felt right at home with her. It was our first time leaving Benji with someone other than family and Stephanie made us feel at ease providing us with as much communication as we needed to feel comfortable. We appreciate her a lot and I know Benji does too! 🥰 He loved her cuddles and her undivided attention. We will definitely use Stephanie’s services again because we trust her wholeheartedly to take care of our Benji boy the same way we would 🐾”
“Java started to trust Kenneth after 2 daycare visits, which is very rare. It means Kenneth did a lot of work with him. I feel very confident leaving Java with him, and I can focus on my work . Thank you 🙏🏽”

About: I have a loving, dog‑centered home in Jacksonville, FL in the Argyle/Oakleaf area, and I’m excited to welcome friendly pups who enjoy companionship and a peaceful environment. I’ve had indoor dogs my entire life, and today my home is shared with two sweet, social pets—a gentle, spayed female Golden Retriever and a playful, neutered male Goldendoodle—who love making new friends. Because their comfort and safety matter, I only host guest dogs who are well‑socialized and able to get along with others. I don’t crate my own pups, but I’m happy to crate your dog if that’s part of their routine or helps them feel secure. Since I work from home, your pup will enjoy plenty of attention throughout the day, frequent outdoor breaks, daily walks, and all the affection that comes with being treated like part of the family. If your furry family member is friendly and enjoys being part of a pack, they’ll feel right at home here—and I will be the sole caregiver providing their care from start to finish. Pet care is naturally woven into my daily routine because I work from home and my own two dogs follow a consistent schedule. Mornings start with outdoor time and a walk, and throughout the day I take frequent breaks for potty trips, playtime, and attention. My pups—a spayed Golden Retriever and a neutered Goldendoodle—are part of everything I do, so visiting dogs simply join that steady rhythm. Evenings include another walk, relaxed downtime, and plenty of affection before bed. I don’t crate my own dogs, but I’m happy to crate your pup if that’s part of their normal routine. Caring for dogs isn’t an added task for me—it’s a natural part of how my days are structured, and I will be the one personally caring for your pet from start to finish. Safety and trust are at the center of how I care for pets, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m following your dog’s routine in their familiar environment. In my home, I maintain a calm, supervised setting with two friendly, well‑mannered dogs—a spayed Golden Retriever and a neutered Goldendoodle—who help create a peaceful atmosphere for visiting pups. I introduce dogs thoughtfully, monitor interactions closely, and only host pets who are friendly and able to get along with others. I don’t crate my own dogs, but I’m happy to crate your pup if that’s part of their routine or helps them feel secure. My home is dog‑safe, with controlled access to the yard, frequent supervised outdoor time, and constant attention since I work from home. When I’m providing care in a client’s home, I follow your instructions carefully and maintain your dog’s normal schedule so they feel safe and supported. No matter the setting, I am the sole caregiver, and my priority is creating a trustworthy, loving environment where every dog feels protected, comfortable, and genuinely cared for.
“My fur baby is very clingy and I was initially hesitant after a negative experience at a local boarding business. However, she adapted well to Chyna and I plan to use her services in the future.”
About: Animals truly are a phenomenal blessing and I strive to ensure quality care, safety, and wellness with every animal I encounter! Pet care as if you were there! Family and friends have entrusted me with their pet care since I was 16, during college, and even the military. I have experience with puppies, middle age, and senior dogs as well as small, medium, and large dogs. I’ve house trained as well as taught tricks to four dogs so far. In addition to that, I have experience with healthy dogs as wells as those with medical needs (I.e. drawing and administering the correct prescribed amount of insulin for diabetic dogs). I aim to take care of any and all pet needs whether it’s taking them on a run/walk, going to the beach, preparing meals, or just providing company. All pets are treated with love and respect just like I would my own sweet boy, Bentley. Thank you for your time and have a great day! I currently work full time, however, I’m remote and able to be flexible to provide the best care for your fur family. I’m free in the mornings, midday, and the evening after 5:30pm for feedings, walks/runs, providing company, or taking them out to do an activity. Your pet’s safety is my utmost concern! There are multiple rooms in the event your pet likes to wander or prefer a little space to themselves. If they love making friends, then I have a sweet Cockapoo named Bentley who would love to keep them company and share his treats. If your pet requires to be caged at any point during the day, then that can be accommodated. Lastly, I have video surveillance to keep an extra eye on the animals in addition to me being vigilant and attentive.

About: As a dog and cat owner, I know how essential it is to provide love, the proper-care, and exercise to our pets. My own dog, Lola (10 years old), requires a special prescription diet so I completely understand how important it is to find someone who can care for the special and unique needs of your pet.

On weekends I have full availability. Additionally, I have experience administering monthly heart worm and flea medications, oral medication (liquid or pill), baths, and specific meal preparation. I am happy to help in anyway! I work full time but available before 8AM for morning walks, lunch time 12-1:30PM for walks, and 5:30-8PM for walks. On the weekend, I’m fully flexible to care for your pets. I have a fully fenced, large yard perfect for playing with a friendly older dog. When I’m at others’ homes I stick to your pets’ routine and make sure to provide plenty of love and play.

About: Hi! I’m Katherine, a veterinary technician with 4 years of professional experience caring for dogs and cats. I have experience administering medications, caring for senior pets, recognizing signs of illness, and handling anxious animals. I’ll treat your pet like family and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can feel confident they’re in safe, loving hands while you’re away. I work as a full-time veterinary technician Tuesday through Saturday, and my schedule is posted weekly. I’m typically available after 3:00 PM on Saturdays and all day Sundays and Mondays. I also have some weekday half-days, allowing for additional availability. I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs and keep my Rover calendar updated so you always know when I’m available. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. As a veterinary technician, I’m experienced caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, ensure doors and gates are secure, provide fresh food and water, medications if needed, and plenty of love and attention. You’ll receive photo updates after every visit so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: I have always been around dogs and animals in general growing up. I always knew I had a love for animals and I am extremely passionate about helping others so I have been babysitting and dog sitting since I was a teenager. I have volunteered at various places such as group homes and foundations throughout my teens as well. I am an entrepreneur, so I can plan to your needs accordingly. I can work Monday-Sunday preferably in the mornings and afternoons, but I am flexible and am willing to work out a schedule throughout the week. I would like to have a day in advance notice but I am open to same day offers as well. :) I offer compassion, patience and joy to my client’s pets. I am energetic and will fulfill the needs of your pets, no matter the environment. I often think how I would like a pet service done & do so precisely, respecting your pets & property.
About: I greatly enjoy meeting and caring for everyone and anyone’s pets! Learning how they each communicate as well as helping them live peaceful, more fun, and enriched lives. I also work a part time job so besides my shifts there I’m happy to be available for walks and check ins! I’m almost always available in the afternoons and evenings but mornings may vary. When visiting a home to care for a pet I’m sure to give them time to greet me however they feel comfortable and talk to them as much as they need while preparing them for a walk &/or cleaning their space.
About: I have been taking care of animals all my life.. I have been the sole owner/operator for the past 10 years of a local pet sitting & walking business. I have taken care of all types and sizes of dogs, from small chihuahua size to small or large laberdoodles to great danes. I have experience in working with dogs who are stubborn eaters, and regular age dogs to senior dogs who require medication and extra care. My rates are very competitive. From a $35 daily walk/check in while at work or have a longer event to attend to a standard overnight which includes a 10 hour overnight stay, like 8pm-6am with 1 mid day potty/meal break which is $85 If you need a longer overnight stay like 20 hours round the clock/constant concierge care at your house then the rate will be $100 per night. I have a fabulous list of references from clients that have been with me for anywhere from 4 to the full 10 years in operation. I'm currently only doing 1 weekly dog walking job, unfortunately due to the heartbreaking recent loss of one of my longest daily walking and sitting clients. My current daily walking job is only 3 days a week, any 3 days between M-F and is only for 30/35 mins and can be done anytime between 11am to 3pm. The rest of the time I am currently available and due to the flexibility of the current job, I have a very open availability. I only take dogs on leashed walks and during temperatures that are safe for the dog's health. I'm very respectful of what the parents want and specific details for the happiness of their dog. I'm very attentive when I'm with the dog to make sure they are safe at all times. I do in client's home sitting for almost all my clients, and they live it. They will verify trustworthiness, loyalty and respect of their home. I also trying to make it affordable compared to the average median for Jacksonville, FL.

“Katrina is an excellent dog walker. She is experienced and knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior. She is also kind and smart. My 2-year-old Myka loves her!! Myka does a full body wag when she sees Katrina (not just her tail), which she only does for her favorite people.”
About: I’ve previously worked in two separate boarding kennels over the last 3 years, applying care to all sorts of breeds, sizes, and ages! I’ve also fed, bathed, and cared for my own dogs all my life.

About: Animals truly are a phenomenal blessing and I strive to ensure quality care, safety, and wellness with every animal I encounter! Pet care as if you were there! Family and friends have entrusted me with their pet care since I was 16, during college, and even the military. I have experience with puppies, middle age, and senior dogs as well as small, medium, and large dogs. I’ve house trained as well as taught tricks to four dogs so far. In addition to that, I have experience with healthy dogs as wells as those with medical needs (I.e. drawing and administering the correct prescribed amount of insulin for diabetic dogs). I aim to take care of any and all pet needs whether it’s taking them on a run/walk, going to the beach, preparing meals, or just providing company. All pets are treated with love and respect just like I would my own sweet boy, Bentley. Thank you for your time and have a great day! I currently work full time, however, I’m remote and able to be flexible to provide the best care for your fur family. I’m free in the mornings, midday, and the evening after 5:30pm for feedings, walks/runs, providing company, or taking them out to do an activity. Your pet’s safety is my utmost concern! There are multiple rooms in the event your pet likes to wander or prefer a little space to themselves. If they love making friends, then I have a sweet Cockapoo named Bentley who would love to keep them company and share his treats. If your pet requires to be caged at any point during the day, then that can be accommodated. Lastly, I have video surveillance to keep an extra eye on the animals in addition to me being vigilant and attentive.
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable with them and can happily accommodate their needs. I’m ready to help out in any way that I can, and my schedule is very flexible! My schedule is extremely flexible, I’m never away from home for more than a couple hours at a time, so your pet will get lots of quality time and attention. I have a fenced yard so your dog will have lots of space to play, but will always be leashed and supervised. There’s also a dog park down the road from me for additional playtime and social time if your pet prefers! The house is already pet-proofed and dogs are welcome on the couch and in the bed.

“Joe & Reanaleena did a great job watching Huk for us while we went on a family vacation. It was his first time staying away and we were not sure how he would respond. But they sent us pictures each day and gave updates on him. This helped so much relieve our concerns. We appreciate their care and will definitely use again when needed. Thank you!”
“Lindsey and Jose took amazing care of my fur baby! I ended up dropping her off with an upset stomach after dealing with it for a few days and Lindsey had no problem at all with it and was so kind and caring about it! If you need to leave your senior dog(s) with someone you can trust Lindsey is the woman! She is very flexible and provides daily updates! My doggo looked like she had a very fun time sunbathing in the fenced yard and napping on the couch with them. She even had her own little spot in her daughter’s bedroom! I highly recommend Lindsey and would gladly use her as my sitter again in the future!”

“I really don’t have the words to explain how amazing my sweet Daisy did with Ms. Alicia and her husband. Ever since adopting Daisy my boyfriend and I have always been really nervous about leaving her with people that she doesn’t know. We did a meet and greet before her stay, she became attached and did very well. They did so much with her (car rides, walks, playtime), sent me pictures and videos throughout our week of being gone. We never once felt nervous or worried that our baby wasn’t loved and cared for. We are so thankful we have found the greatest dog sitter for our sweet baby. If you are looking for a fun, loving, reliable, caring dog sitter, she is the dog sitter for you.”
“Five stars is not enough for Waldemar! He took care of our Goldendoodle, Kairo, with so much love, genuine care, and responsibility.

Kairo came home happy and well-loved! Excellent service, 100% recommended!”

“Katrina and her girls were awesome! This was our first time leaving for a vacation since we adopted our dog so of course we were a little nervous. Katrina and her family immediately put us at ease. Our pound pup was nervous upon arrival but Katrina met us at the door with treats and knew just what to do to chill our dog out. She has a beautiful property with lots of room for our dog to run and sniff. While we were gone Katrina kept us updated with how our pup was doing and sent us plenty of pictures. If I could give more stars I would! We plan on trusting our Izzy with Katrina and her family from here on out.”
“I didn’t worry about Jax while in her care. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs and I would recommend her to anyone. She accommodated Jax on short notice and gave regular updates.”

My dog is picky and I was worried, but she was immediately comfortable at crystals house. She is so kind and attentive, and became best friends with my chihuahua. She was comfortable around everyone in the household and very well taken care of. Will certainly be using her services in the future and am beyond thankful for her and her family. Thank you SO much”
“Xiomara was so welcoming with my furry baby. I had a previous bad experience with another dog sitter. I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her. She genuinely loves and cares for your pet. She sent me videos and photos of my dog and kept me posted. She even accommodated me last minute and was able to watch my dog a extra night and dropped him off home. Thanks so much xiomara. I would certainly use her services again”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all varieties for as long as I can remember . My heart will always have a special love for the big dogs I will say. I currently have a friendly 3 year old Shepard mix at home with me, so please keep that in mind when booking with me. He does love to play and your dogs will enjoy running around the fully fenced in back yard with him. I do have experience with puppy training as well. One of my favorite things is being able to teach a dog a new trick . I’ve got a huge heart for animals and would love to help give someone the peace of mind that their fur babies are being well taken care of while out of town . I currently work from home M-F so it makes boarding super easy for me logistic wise. I am available for all other services I would need to travel for after 4pm. Weekends I have free availability . I have a fully fenced in yard for the pups to all run around in and burn off energy. I do crate my animals when I’m leaving my house for extended periods of time to avoid accidents. I have an extra medium size crate already at my house, anything larger I would need yours for the duration of stay. If your dog is leash trained I live in a good neighborhood and enjoy taking mine on at least one daily walk . Play time is essential in my house and if your dog is simply a cuddle bug that’s always top tier in my book.
