“Birdie had a great stay with Aura and her family. I appreciated the updates and photos. I was happy to see my energetic pup running around having fun with the other dogs. I will definitely rebook. Thank you!”
“Bridget and her family were the best sitters for our pups! It was clear they were well loved and taken care of, even got baths before they came home! Highly recommend for your loved fur friends 👍🏻”
“We had a great experience with Labresha! Our dog clearly enjoyed his stay and came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and we felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands.”
“This was the first extended stay with Sarah. Our Yorkie mix did great. Sarah’s background as a vet tech gave us confidence in his care. I know our Yorkie had a good time because we was super happy and excited when we arrived to pick him up and he was calm and relaxed on the drive home. With other sitters, the drive home he has been anxious with heavy panting. Thank you Sarah for your comforting care!”
“Brad is an excellent care taker of my 17 year old Morkie. Lucky is blind and trying to live out the remianing years in the best way possible. Having someone care for him when I need to travel is essential. Brad treats lucky as if its his own. Lucky always is comfortable with his stay there, getting special care and attention. I highly recommended Brad for your pet, no matter the age or breed.”
“Haylie was sweet and even offered to pick up our pooch early as she had a schedule conflict with our initial drop-off time. We got pics everyday and Daisy seemed comfy, happy and well cared for! Thanks Haylie!”
“I just had my first boarding of my five year-old calm Doberman with Mary. Everything seemed to go perfectly, as he was welcomed into their home and by her kids as well. Plenty of snuggles and playtime. I’ll definitely board Reagan with her again.”
“We needed a last minute dogsitter for our puppy while we left town for a few days. Christina not only was willing to watch our dog on a last minutes notice but took the best care of him! He came back calm, happy, and relaxed. We knew he felt so comfortable with her. Thank you so much for such great care of our dog, Christina! We can’t recommend her enough!”
“Rebecca and Michael had our chihuahua again. The communication and pictures is very consistent and frequent. They have never missed a beat when they have watched our dogs. I have 0 fear leaving them with Rebecca and Michael. If you are needing a sitter I recommend them for sure.”
“Natalie came through for us when we needed our pup boarded for Thanksgiving. She really loves animals and it shows. She is very kind and even came to pick up Maddie free of charge. We will definitely book with Natalie again if needed and I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies because they are in good hands with Natalie!”
“Leaving the country for nine days and what to do with your ninety pound loving chocolate lab who has never been boarded before? Try Ms. Abigail out you will not be sorry. We got a meet and greet several days before the booked stay. Abigail has a large property, one dog and a family with lovely kids who enjoy animals. While away we received pictures and updates of our pet’s boarding experience. Abigail made the drop off and pick up easy and she replied quickly to any communications. Our family recommends Abigail for pet boarding.”
“I'm so glad I found Danielle! She and her family treated Bradley as if he were their own, showing such kindness and genuine care. It's clear they have a deep love for animals. Danielle went above and beyond by keeping me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She truly exceeded my expectations, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone in need of a loving and responsible pet sitter.”
“Dani did a great job with our pups. They seemed really comfortable in her home and all the doggie toys that she provided for them. We will definitely leave them with her again!”
“From the moment I met Kelly, I knew she was the perfect person to care for my furbaby Murdock. He is very shy and doesn't like to meet new people. Kelly set up a meet and greet proud to Murdock's stay. She was so kind and I could tell she really loves dogs. She has a very gently manner about her and speaks in a very soothing tone to the pets. She gave updates, and sent photos of him looking like he felt safe and happy. He eventually started going to her when called and enjoyed all the loving attention she gave him. Murdock even felt comfortable enough with Jim, her spouse, to take walks with him, something he had never allowed in the past, as he seemed more fearful of men than anything. When I picked him up, I could tell that it was a wonderful experience for. Murdock, and I know it has helped him to not be afraid with strangers. I recommend Kelly and Jim with the highest regard and will always reserve boarding time for Murdock with them as needed. So happy I found them! And .Murdock is too!”
“What an absolute blessing Kelli and Joe were to our family! We had a trip planned to St Augustine, but were traveling from Colorado- Kelli and Joe set up a zoom so that we could “meet” them prior to the visit. Upon arrival, our Frodo took to them both like a fish to water. It was like he knew he was in good hands right off the bat. Additionally- our boy sometimes does not eat when he is away from home and he had no problems with meals during his stay. Kelli and Joe sent lots of pictures and updates and that allowed me my husband to relax and enjoy our vacation in St Augustine. With all the walks, outside time, and plenty of snuggles, our boy felt like he was on vacation too! I strongly recommend that anyone trust this couple with your furbabies- we will have to plan much more frequent trips to the area just so Frodo can visit his new favorite friends. Thanks so much Kelli and Joe- you guys are truly a treasure.”
“Lisa was amazing! So communicative, clearly very caring for animals, and was also accommodating when we added a day to our dogs stay at the last minute due to travel changes. Thank you Lisa for taking care of our boys! Highly recommend!”
“Tracy is a wonderful caretaker. This was Rosie’s first time with her. Tracy really focused on my dog, and spent time with her to make sure was happy and having fun. She left me a lot of updates to reassure me throughout the day. I know my dog was well taken care of and had fun at her home.”
“Laura and her family were great taking care of our 2 dogs. She sent pictures each day and they appeared to have fun! Laura was easy to work with ad very responsive- we hope to use her again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. My experience includes feeding, walking, providing fresh water, administering basic medications when needed, cleaning up after pets, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who loves playtime or a senior pet who needs a gentler approach, I’m committed to providing reliable and compassionate care.
About: Since I was five years old, I have had a cat. My first cat was a friendly boy that loved to play and cuddle. My current kitty is friendly, small, and loves to be left alone most of the time.

About: 🐶 What Sets Me Apart: ✔️ 30 years of hands-on dog experience ✔️ Familiar with breed-specific behaviors and needs ✔️ Skilled in senior dog care and administering medications ✔️ Great with shy, anxious, and rescue dogs ✔️ Reliable, punctual, and communicative Hi there! My name is Timothy, and I’ve spent the last 30 years loving, caring for, training, and bonding with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From high-energy puppies to wise old seniors, dogs have always held a special place in my heart—and in my home. I truly believe dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. That’s exactly how I treat every pup I care for. Whether your dog needs a weekend sitter, daily walks, playtime, or just a lot of belly rubs and love, I provide a safe, calm, and affectionate environment where they’ll feel at home and cared for like my own. When I care for pets in your home, I treat your space with respect and your pet with compassion. I follow your instructions to a T—meals, walks, playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. I take time to bond with your dog so they feel safe and loved in their familiar environment. I also keep you updated with pictures and notes so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. Whether your pet is high-energy, needs special care, or just wants a cuddle buddy, I adapt to their needs and give them the same level of care I’d want for my own.
About: Very patient and attentive with all my fur babies. Anyone who has ever owned a pet knows how much of a labor of love is required to be a pet parent. I’m always open to providing as much needed walks and belly rubs as possible so that your fur baby gets all the necessary attention. I have plenty of time to help with pet care. I try to make my schedule as flexible as possible, more or less depending on the pet owner needs. I usually make sure the environment is pet friendly and hide all small items that any pet could accidentally ingest, make sure that all of their toys are near, and medications that they need are nearby also. Sure that they have plenty of water and food for their liking or dependent on the specifications of the owner based up their pets needs. And try to make sure that they have something that smells like their owner near so they aren’t weary of their absence.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, starting with my own Puggle, Zoey. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, and I truly enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re with me. I cared for my 16-year-old Puggle who had diabetes, so I’m very familiar with administering medications and making sure medical needs are always a top priority. I also have a special place in my heart for dogs with anxiety and take pride in creating a calm, comforting environment where they can feel secure. I’ve also been working in the pet care industry for a while as I pursue my goal of becoming a professional dog groomer, so I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. At home, I have my own 2 year old Chihuahua, who is my little baby. I would love the opportunity to share that same love, patience, and plenty of cuddles with your fur baby. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! My schedule is very flexible at this time. Please contact me so that we can schedule a time to meet your pet care needs. I look forward to getting to know your fur baby in the future! I have a dog friendly home. We have the ability to meet your pet’s various medical needs. Our home is filled with cuddles, love, and treats!
About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, I bring a calm, confident, and loving approach to every pet I meet. Big dogs don’t scare me—in fact, I adore them—and my background as a vet tech in an emergency clinic means I’m comfortable handling medical needs, including administering medications. I truly love all animals, and I talk to every dog, cat, or critter as if they were my own. Your pets will be in patient, capable, and genuinely caring hands with me. I can work from anywhere and I set my own hours so I'm available for any schedule that you and your pets need, even if it's just a visit. In your home, I care for your pets just like my own. Our cat sleeps with us, Tank is on the floor on my side is the bed. I talk to them like they're my best friends. 😊

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover who treats every pet like family. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, and I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, even over nights all while giving lots of love while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’d love to meet your furry friend! I currently work from home so it’s easier for me to naturally fit pet care into my daily routine.

About: Care for 30-60 pounds doggies. My dogs are senior dogs , mellowed, very easy going. May not be a good fit for a young puppy younger then 2. At this time I am only able to accept doodles due to my work. I work with food, bake all kinds of pastries and breads. Only non shedding pups at this time as I cannot have any hair around my kitchen. I am home most of the time so potty breaks can be as often as needed. My pets are my children. When asked how many kids do I have I say 4. Two human babies and 2 animal babies. My pups are very gentle with my children and I would like to continue with such puppies/ guests. I have been around dogs all of my life. Grew up in Poland with family who had farms and all kinds of animals. Dogs were always around. Playing with them was part of growing up and having fun. Now I have 2 sheepadoodles (Lilly and Bella) who are wonderful companions. They are big, furry, loving addition to my family. Cannot imagine living without them. My 4 legged babies can get me smiling on a bad day. I care about them as much I as do about my human children. They absolutely love humans, and get along with other dogs.. I am home almost all the time so your dogs will not feel lonely. Also doggies are allowed to run freely , there are no cages. Our yard is fenced and pretty big with toys to play with. I would like to take dogs between 30-60 pounds. just because mine are 50 and 70 pounds and by my experience they do play better. I take only 1 guest pup at the time so the experience is more personal. Also that helps me to keep all of them safe .... there are 4 cameras in our house so I can have an eye on my furry babies even when I am grocery shopping or running errands. Safety and love is what I like to share. I had taken a break from Bording due to personal issues. When pregnant with second child someone smashed into my car. Don’t remember anything. Woke up in a hospital couple of days later. High risk pregnancy. My daughter is 6 now and I decided to resume taking a doggie companion. It is very important I only have gentle dogs guests. Especially Gentle with children around. Thank you for understanding. I am stay home mom. If I go out it won’t be longer than 3 -4 hours most of the Time. I have been stay home mom for 10 years now. I have a fenced yard and 2 doggies to keep your pup company. If I step out it is for couple of hours only. I have 4 cameras in my home to check on them as often as I want to.

I'm patient, reliable, and understand that every pet has unique needs. I provide playtime, walks, feeding, fresh water, and plenty of attention and affection. I'm also comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering basic medications if needed, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved as if they were my own! I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, allowing me to accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and pet care needs at various times of the day.

“I am so grateful to have found Mariana to take care of my dog Bentley. She is a fantastic, caring and loving person and Bentley had a wonderful, fun, and safe time with Mariana.

About: What sets me apart is consistency, structure, and attention to detail. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable, hands-on care throughout the day—not just quick drop-ins. I’m especially strong at maintaining routines, which helps pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and small changes so I can adjust care in real time. I’m experienced with: • Puppies and reinforcing basic routines (potty schedules, crate familiarity, structured play) • Adult dogs with regular exercise and enrichment needs • Senior pets who require a slower pace, patience, and closer monitoring • Multi-pet households with different needs and personalities Clear communication is a big priority for me—I provide regular updates and photos so owners always feel confident their pet is in good hands. I work from home and manage a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I structure my routine to accommodate pet needs first—whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I am available for weekday and weekend bookings, including repeat schedules. Because I’m not tied to a traditional 9–5 outside the home, I can maintain reliable routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, and any specific needs before care begins. In my home: • Pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment • I maintain a structured routine to reduce stress and keep pets comfortable • I avoid overcrowding to ensure each pet gets proper attention In clients’ homes: • I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, medication, and routines • I respect your home and keep everything clean and secure • I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any signs of discomfort so I can respond quickly if anything seems off.

“I really appreciate Samantha helping my boy on a last minute notice over the holiday weekend. I was out of town and she was nice enough to feed him and clean up his accident without asking. It was more than just a walk. I would recommend her services if you need someone to look after your dog. I hope to hire her in the future.”
About: Hi, My name is Maarten and twenty-nine years ago, I applied for an internship at Artis, a zoo in Amsterdam. As luck would have it, I didn't get the job and life took me in a different direction. Now I am 45 years old and fate has finally delivered me to a spot where I can get back to my childhood dream of working with animals. I grew up in a household filled with animals: dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, rats and parrots. This nurtured a wide knowledge of animal care. Over the years, we've had 9 dogs, all of which I trained myself. At the moment, I am raising a 1.5 year old German Shepherd and a 6 month old BullMastiff mix. I want to say that over the years, dogs have grown especially close to my heart. To be honest, they have completely taken over. At the moment, I work part-time as a kennel attendant for S.A.F.E. Pet Rescue. Although I consider it a dream job, my long-term goal is to open up my own doggy daycare. Approach to Dog Walking: I believe that every dog is unique and deserves the utmost care and respect. I approach dog walking with a big smile and a warm heart. My goal is to create a fun and lively experience for your dog, making each walk a joyful adventure. During our walks, I'll ensure your furry friend's safety and well-being, while also encouraging positive behavior. Wednesday and Thursday I work for S.A.F.E. Animal Shelter. The rest of the week I am available between 08:00 and 15:30. Evening visits can be planned by special request. The safety of your pets and property are my main focus.

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I’m very attentive pet lover I enjoy spending time with animals, will play with, walk, feed, and care for your dog as if he or she is my own. I have dog sat for many friends and family members. Even got offered pets because of how well they seen me take care animals. I Have experience administering medicine, giving baths, nursing dogs back to health, training, and more. I’m very energetic and playful and will make sure your pet gets the proper exercise and burn off all that extra energy. I volunteer at the local animal shelter taking dogs on bow wow break out and fostering. I have 2 dogs stormy and koda. Stormy just turned a year old and koda is 6 months old very playful and loves other animals. We go on long walks in the park and on nearby trails. They love car rides and pup cups from Jermiah’s. I have two 4 year old cats Chloe, and Oliver that have their own room and kept separate from other animals when needed. I work from home overnight and I home school my 7 year old daughter so I’m home majority of the time outside of running errands. Morning feeding happen between 6 and 8am followed by yard play and then nap time. Pm feeding are usually between 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm followed by a little time to burn off steam or a walk before bedtime. I do let pets out to use the bathroom every 2 to 4 hours. Bowls and crates are washed and kept clean daily along with vacuuming the floors. Loving and caring for your pet as if it’s my own, long walks, supervised play time, separate feedings, time to decompress, pets will always be leashed or in a secure enclosed area. Pets are allowed on furniture. I will keep pet owners updated with pictures and videos throughout visit. Calls and text anytime day or night are welcome.
About: Growing up my family always had cats and dogs, so I’ve been around them my whole life. Pets bring so much love and fun into your life, they are a part of the family and they are so important. I will care for your pet like they are my own. I have a 6 year old poodle named Lola who I love with my whole heart. My qualifications- I’ve taken care of older cats for a neighbor, I’ve housesat for friends and family who have pets, and I volunteered at an animal shelter for over a year, where I would clean kennels, take dogs on walks, play with cats, and organize and paint the shelter. Thank you for considering me as your pet-sitter! ❤️ I have flexible hours, because I work as a door dasher, but pet-sitting/walking is my preferred job, so I can be available whenever I am needed. In my home, my dog Lola has access to food and water 24/7, and I take her outside every 4 hours or so during the day. She lets me know when she needs to go outside. In your home, I can provide any feeding/walking schedule that your pet is used to. I’m very easy-going and adaptable to anything.

About: Very patient and attentive with all my fur babies. Anyone who has ever owned a pet knows how much of a labor of love is required to be a pet parent. I’m always open to providing as much needed walks and belly rubs as possible so that your fur baby gets all the necessary attention. I have plenty of time to help with pet care. I try to make my schedule as flexible as possible, more or less depending on the pet owner needs. I usually make sure the environment is pet friendly and hide all small items that any pet could accidentally ingest, make sure that all of their toys are near, and medications that they need are nearby also. Sure that they have plenty of water and food for their liking or dependent on the specifications of the owner based up their pets needs. And try to make sure that they have something that smells like their owner near so they aren’t weary of their absence.

“This was the first extended stay with Sarah. Our Yorkie mix did great. Sarah’s background as a vet tech gave us confidence in his care. I know our Yorkie had a good time because we was super happy and excited when we arrived to pick him up and he was calm and relaxed on the drive home. With other sitters, the drive home he has been anxious with heavy panting. Thank you Sarah for your comforting care!”
“Haylie was sweet and even offered to pick up our pooch early as she had a schedule conflict with our initial drop-off time. We got pics everyday and Daisy seemed comfy, happy and well cared for! Thanks Haylie!”
“I just had my first boarding of my five year-old calm Doberman with Mary. Everything seemed to go perfectly, as he was welcomed into their home and by her kids as well. Plenty of snuggles and playtime. I’ll definitely board Reagan with her again.”
“Natalie came through for us when we needed our pup boarded for Thanksgiving. She really loves animals and it shows. She is very kind and even came to pick up Maddie free of charge. We will definitely book with Natalie again if needed and I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies because they are in good hands with Natalie!”
“Leaving the country for nine days and what to do with your ninety pound loving chocolate lab who has never been boarded before? Try Ms. Abigail out you will not be sorry. We got a meet and greet several days before the booked stay. Abigail has a large property, one dog and a family with lovely kids who enjoy animals. While away we received pictures and updates of our pet’s boarding experience. Abigail made the drop off and pick up easy and she replied quickly to any communications. Our family recommends Abigail for pet boarding.”
“I'm so glad I found Danielle! She and her family treated Bradley as if he were their own, showing such kindness and genuine care. It's clear they have a deep love for animals. Danielle went above and beyond by keeping me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She truly exceeded my expectations, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone in need of a loving and responsible pet sitter.”
“Dani did a great job with our pups. They seemed really comfortable in her home and all the doggie toys that she provided for them. We will definitely leave them with her again!”
“From the moment I met Kelly, I knew she was the perfect person to care for my furbaby Murdock. He is very shy and doesn't like to meet new people. Kelly set up a meet and greet proud to Murdock's stay. She was so kind and I could tell she really loves dogs. She has a very gently manner about her and speaks in a very soothing tone to the pets. She gave updates, and sent photos of him looking like he felt safe and happy. He eventually started going to her when called and enjoyed all the loving attention she gave him. Murdock even felt comfortable enough with Jim, her spouse, to take walks with him, something he had never allowed in the past, as he seemed more fearful of men than anything. When I picked him up, I could tell that it was a wonderful experience for. Murdock, and I know it has helped him to not be afraid with strangers. I recommend Kelly and Jim with the highest regard and will always reserve boarding time for Murdock with them as needed. So happy I found them! And .Murdock is too!”

“I would definitely use Sarah as a pet sitter again! She made everything easy from start to finish. Great communication and very easy to work with. She sent multiple pictures during the stay. Also, updates on how the nervous pup was! For her to house both pups was SO helpful. Highly recommend.”
“Samantha and her family gave my Riley lots of love and attention, even taking her to an event they went to!! She took her on walks and gave her lots of play time with another pup she watches during the week. I will definitely be booking again so Riley can get lots of loving when we go out of town!!”
“Sylvia was excellent with our pup! Our sweet boy is super sweet with people but can get very anxious with other dogs. We needed a dog sitter at short notice and she was able to come to our rescue. She made our boy feel at home even with two other dogs of her own! She even introduced them, with our permission of course and he did great! I’m now planning on scheduling some playdates to help with socialization! Thanks again Sylvia!!”

They were clear in asking what I should bring and more importantly I was able to reach them throughout my dogs stay. I boarded my dog for 2 nights and was sent photos each day of him enjoying his stay. I will most certainly be scheduling another stay!”
