“As a helicopter puppy mom I couldn’t recommend Athena and Richi enough! They are absolutely amazing and kept me at ease my pets entire stay. I got plenty of picture and video updates which I loved! They seemed to be enjoying exploring the yard and their other sleep over buddies. My pups seemed relaxed and happy when I picked them up. I will definitely be booking with them again in the future. 😌 thank you so much for treating my babies like your own and giving them tons of love.”

“Jennifer was the most amazing sitter for Ozzy! She sent videos and pics everyday. He always looked so happy in her care. I highly recommend Jennifer!”
“It was my dog Ryder’s first time meeting Matt and staying overnight to board. Everything went great; Matt was very friendly, great communication and I appreciated all the photos he sent of Ryder while i was away. We also did a meet and greet beforehand which was helpful. My dog also gets insulin plus medication and Matt had no problem handling it all. We’ll definitely use Matt again. Thank you!!”
“As always, Claire (and Keyser!) took wonderful care of Birdie when she stayed with them last month. Claire always sends lots of fun photos of Birdie and the other pups playing, sniffing around the backyard, eating and sleeping. In one photo all 4(? I think it was 4 dogs) were lined up, each in their own bed which were set out in a row against the living room wall. It truly looked like a very happy, orderly, 4-legged day care center! Can’t say enough about what a good home Claire and her husband make for Birdie and all the dogs hosted there. And Birdie is very bored when she gets home and misses all her playmates. We will book again with Claire without hesitation.”
“Heather took the best of care of our little old man and even went out of her way to help us with drop off and met us at a convenient location! She kept us up to date with pictures and updates. We will definitely have her watch our pup again!”

They took excellent care of him, sent me great updates on how he was doing, asked appropriate questions about his care and also sent some really cute pictures! They both are very user friendly and have a great sense of humor. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them as pet sitters.”
“Janet is such a lovely lady! She is always so accommodating to me and my westie. She is very communicative and sends the cutest videos of all the dogs. Your dog will get a lot of socialization. My westies diet is a bit over the top and I appreciate her taking the time to feed him accordingly. I highly recommend Janet for your dog's vacation!”
“Muffin had such a great time with Marianne and Christopher. He made a new friend in their lovely pup Gizmo and seemed to enjoy having a big backyard to sunbath in for the weekend. Definitely plan to use these two awesome dog parents in the future!”
“If you are looking for an amazing dog sitter you have found the one. Vasti makes sure your dog is having the best time and will send you daily updates while you are away. She really made sure my dog Maverick was having his own little vacation. I will definitely be using her in the future and highly recommend her services. Thank you Vasti!”

My pup wad happy to see me and looked very well cared for while I was away. I highly recommend Kristen if you need a dog sitter as she is amazing. Thank you again, Kristen!”

About: We've had a dog in our home for most of my life. And so has many of our family and friends. So holidays and get togethers are always fun with all the fur babies running around. I had a 100 pound German Shepard so big dogs are no problem. He's made us very familiar with the vet office. From regular allergy meds to cut open paw pads that need daily cleaning and treatment, he's given us years of pet experience. I've owned dogs who live for long walks and dogs who prefer playing fetch in the yard instead. The cuddly ones to the stand off ish ones. Senior dogs who need assistance walking and extra health care too. I love all dogs and will pet any one I see... with permission of course! Love me some cats too! Currently have 3 cats, so the litter box is a familiar place for me. I'm also a master at cat play time! I work from home full time so I'm always able to give my pet or yours the attention they need when they need it. I'm available for afternoon drop ins to full days of sitting. I understand the peace of mind knowing someone is taking good care of my pet when I can't be home for them. I want to offer as little disruption to your pets routine as possible. Whatever your guidelines are for your pets needs I will strive to meet and exceed them so your pet stays happy and healthy!
“Melissa is great! She’s reliable, highly communicative, and always sends updates. Mickey was very happy, and I completely trust her. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for an amazing dog walker!”
“Kelli was our dog walker for almost 2 years she was great with our dog! So sweet and loving to her I never worried when I was away. Kelli watch our dog at our apt. so that our dog was happy and safe in her own space. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a little help with their furry friend!”
About: Hi, I’m Ocean! I’m a Veterinary Technician with over 13 years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals. Working in veterinary medicine has given me the knowledge and confidence to care for pets of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, a senior who needs extra patience, or requires medications or special care, you can feel confident knowing they’re in experienced hands. My top priorities are always your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own because I know they’re family. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care is a part of my daily and weekly routine because I already work full-time as a veterinary technician. I’m used to structuring my days around animal care, including feeding schedules, medication times, monitoring behavior, and making sure each pet gets the attention they need. On a typical day, I’m already in a rhythm of caring for multiple animals, so adding pet sitting or drop-ins fits in smoothly before or after work, as well as on my days off. I’m very organized and plan ahead to make sure each pet in my care gets consistent, reliable attention. I’m a calm, reliable, and detail oriented person who understands that every pet has their own personality and needs. Whether your pet needs extra patience, a specific routine, medication, or just some loving attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and my goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet feels right at home.
“Kallie, was great and able to cater to all our animal’s needs. She was able to deal with the chaos of multiple dogs, different foods, and different walking schedules. We were so thankful to find someone who was flexible with our schedule and allow our pets to remain in their own home where they feel comfortable. Kallie spent time with each individual pet…above and beyond service!”
