“Went on a overnight mini getaway and he watched our baby last minute. He was a great sitter and let us enjoy our night out. Thank u again. I would recommend and use him again if I'm in the area”
“Needed a new sitter for my pup Dexter while I was out of the country. Veronica welcomed him into her home and he had a wonderful time. Loved getting updates on how he was fitting in! Veronica definitely cares about the care she gives and will be our regular sitter from now on!”
“Carly and her family were absolutely amazing while watching my very vocal senior dog, Gracie, for 21 days. From the moment we dropped her off, I could tell she was in wonderful hands. They sent daily photos and updates, just the right amount of communication so I always felt informed without ever feeling overwhelmed. They handled her medication and any special needs with such care and attention. It was such a relief knowing Gracie was so well looked after and loved while we were away. I can’t recommend Carly and her family enough, truly exceptional care!”
“Michelle was great! She watched my dog last minute, she kept me updated on her and how she was doing, even gave her a bath (with permission). We will be using her again for future sitting. Thanks so much!”

“Savannah is AMAZING! This was the first time leaving my babies with anyone while we were on a week vacation and I was so nervous! I have a bigger dog and a small dog and she took such good care of both them. My bigger boy is on medication and she had no problem giving it to him daily. She sends you pics and videos daily and is just literally the sweetest woman. Highly recommend! Copper and Rex can't wait to see her again!”
“Ginni and Thomas did an excellent job with Django. They sent me updates while I was on a cruise and were very responsive. Would highly recommend to anyone needing a dog sitter that treats their pup like he's at home.”
“Renee and family were extremely welcoming to our dog, Whiskey. They kept him on his schedule with walks, meals, and even medication. He got lots of love and attention and made himself at home. While we were away, Renee kept in touch with updates and pictures. I am so grateful that this wonderful family have Whiskey a home while we traveled. I would absolutely send him back to Renee and family any time and recommend them to anyone.”

About: I am a local school teacher with a lifelong passion for animals. I’ve always been an animal lover and have had a variety of pets including dogs, cats, snakes, bearded dragons, and leopard geckos. Up until two year’s ago, I’ve always had at least one dog in my home and am very familiar with senior dog care, including administering any medications needed. Coming home to a dog is one of the BEST feelings and I’ve been missing it since my dog passed. Rest assured, your dog will get so much LOVE, SNUGGLES, PLAYTIME, and PETS during their stay. For years, I have been the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family, frequently managing long-term house sits and care routines that last multiple weeks at a time. Your furry family member will be in safe, responsible, and highly reliable hands. I have a 6 year old who is familiar with big dogs and loves to join in the fun and responsibility of taking care of a fur baby. He LOVES to snuggle just as much as I do! We have a large fenced in yard, quiet neighborhood, and dog park just down the street. My teaching schedule is a massive perk for your pet! Because my school day wraps up early, I am home by mid-afternoon and fully available for the rest of the day. My routine allows me to provide consistent, structured care, including early evening walks, plenty of playtime, and endless couch cuddles. As an educator, I naturally bring patience, clear communication, and a calm environment to my pet sitting. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk to burn off steam or just a warm lap to snooze on while I prep lessons, I tailor my care to their specific routine. I look forward to giving your pet a fun, safe, and stress-free stay! As a school teacher, my life runs on a highly structured, predictable schedule, which is perfect for pets! Because my school day starts and ends early, your pet will enjoy a consistent routine every single day. My mornings begin early, allowing plenty of time for a morning potty break or short walk before I head to school. I am out of the house during standard school hours, but because teachers get out earlier than standard corporate employees, I am back home by mid-afternoon around 3:30 pm. Once I am home, my evening belongs completely to your pet. The rest of my day is dedicated to long afternoon walks, playtime, and couch cuddles while I grade papers or prep lessons and play with my 6 year old son in our backyard. My weekends are completely free and dedicated entirely to pet care. Additionally, during school breaks (summer, spring break, and winter holidays), my availability opens up 24/7, making me a perfect match for your long-term vacation needs! As a school teacher and a parent to a gentle, animal-loving 6-year-old, our home runs on structure, kindness, and clear boundaries. We love hosting furry guests and treat them like members of our own family! Because of my background in education and parenting, safety is my absolute top priority. My 6-year-old has been thoroughly taught how to properly interact with dogs, respect their space, and read their body language. We practice "active supervision," meaning your pet and my child are never left unattended together. In the past 3 years we have lost both our dogs (2 large catahoula leopard dogs). My son grew up around them and has learned how to care for pets. We have missed having a dog in our house and are eager to care for tour dog and give them all the love. Your dog will get the best of both worlds here: an eager, fun playmate in my child, and a calm, reliable routine with me. After we all get home in the mid-afternoon, our evenings are filled with backyard play, neighborhood walks, and cozy family time. If your dog loves children, they will feel like they are at a premier vacation camp filled with affection and attention! To ensure every stay is stress-free, our home features a fenced yard, baby gates, and a dedicated pet room. If your dog ever needs a quiet break to eat or nap undisturbed, we have dedicated, child-free spaces set up just for them.

“Linda took care of Odie for three days when we needed a break. He loved her yard and her house and her attention. We will definitely call on her again for boarding our dog.”

About: Hi my name is Kristin. I've had dogs since the day I was born. I've never not had a dog in my home. I have a dog named FeFe and 4 Cats named Yuki, Snickers, Kit Cat and Meeki, at the moment. I love animals in general. I've had numerous animals over the years. I've bottle fed kittens and puppies. I've potty trained and have taken care of 3 puppies of my own. I've taken care of senior dogs. Some of my own and I am comfortable administering medication to senior or any age dog. I previously worked as a preschool teacher, so I understand the importance of patience, routines, safety and creating a calm, loving environment. I have a flexible schedule and am home throughout the day, this is my job, and I absolutely it, which allows me to give plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime and supervision. I can accommodate feeding routines, medication schedules and cuddle time to help your dog feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I do not take dogs on walks though. I have a very large backyard and they get plenty of playtime and potty breaks. They can run and play several times a day. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As I mentioned before, I have a large fenced in backyard. I will be with all dogs, at all times in the backyard. I pay close attention to each pet's routine, personality and needs to help them feel safe and comfortable while in my care and away from your home. I supervise pets closely, provide regular potty breaks, fresh water, feeding on schedule, playtime and plenty of affection. My goal is to create a trustworthy environment, where pet parents can feel confident knowing their dogs are safe, happy and well cared for. Whether your dog likes cuddles on the couch or wants to just lay on the floor and relax, they can surely do that here.

“Hailey is so reliable and pleasant. Her report cards are the best- always a full blurb on my fur baby. Great when you’re away and really want to know how they are doing.”
About: Hands on experience caring for animals I provide dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with a wide variety of animals from large to small.

About: I’ve had many pets from dogs and cats to a bird, turtle, and hedgehog. I’ve been determined to play with all of them, even the fish! I also have experience with elderly dogs. Mine actually passed recently of cancer so spoon feeding and an abundance of cuddles is normal to me. Im currently doing school online while at home caring from my grandparents so my schedule is pretty open and any excuse to be outside is a plus! I have two cats and a big backyard!! One cat is really sweet and friendly and the other is scared of everything but completely harmless. In a clients home, I promise i’m a good guest:)
“Jennifer is a great pet sitter, she es very sweet, reliable and very good taking care of my dog Leela. When I come back from my vacations my dog is always happy and calm. I will definitely book her again to take care of my Leela.”
“We had a great experience with Julia. She communicated well, was reliable and kind. She was great with our pup and gave her the care we needed. Would hire again in a heartbeat.”
“German was the perfect walking companion for my pup Rockie! He was communicative and flexible! Rockie looked like he had the best time on his little walk. It was clear my dog was in the hands of someone who is truly knowledgeable and caring!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently have two spayed female cats, ages 5 and 10 both are good with other animals, and previously cared for our family Morkie for many years who has since passed. I’ve also helped care for my dad’s Golden Retriever with walks, feeding, playtime, and daily routines. Being around animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. ✨ I work from home and have a flexible schedule through my small business, which makes it easy for me to provide attentive and reliable pet care throughout the day. 🐾 I focus on creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any specific routines their pet is used to. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s routine to help minimize stress while their owner is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured and connected throughout the stay. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I always approach them with patience, attention, and gentle care.
About: My expertise is cats but that doesn’t mean I don’t know how to take care of a dog across all of the basic needs; I just don’t have deep dog knowledge. I currently only am employed door dashing so I’m always out and about in the city. If you think you’re too far from me, you’re not. It’s important to me that your pet gets attention while you are away, so I will make sure to stay and play or cuddle or whatever your baby needs for at least 15 minutes per visit.

“I would not hesitate to recommend Rylee for your pet’s needs. She has been wonderful. It is evident that she knows how to handle a dog, is punctual and keeps me informed. I am so grateful to have Rylee at a time when I cannot walk Lincoln myself”
“Kala couldn’t be more amazing. She came over and met my boys the night prior to walking them for the first time and it was good vibes only! Both of my guys loved her and you could tell she is very genuine and cares about your kiddos! I work a lot of hours and would allow her to take care of my boys with no reservation! Kala is very outgoing, took great photos, and loved my boys like they are her own!”
About: I grew up in a house with both cats and dogs where everyone got along great! Once I moved out of the house I adopted my first rescue dog and have had dogs as pets ever since. Currently fostering dogs for Orange County Animal Services and have helped them get several dogs adopted into forever homes. I have regularly helped friends with dogsitting and housesitting while they are away from home, and have taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages. Currently working part time, from home, so my schedule is very flexible on both weekdays and weekends. Mornings or afternoons I'm available for pet play dates or walking. Trusting our pets with someone else is a big step, so I take their safety and security very seriously. When walking a dog I'm always cautious about traffic, strangers, or other pets that have been let off leash. Building trust with your pet is the best way to keep them safe so they can see you again soon!

“Asatta and Andrew took great care of my girl, who loved them immediately. Enjoyed getting videos of her on walks and zooming around the backyard. They provided extra TLC for a skin flareup she was having and were attentive and thoughtful about her care in general. I definitely recommend!”
“John was extremely accommodating and made Brady feel right at home. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Brady was in such great care. John kept me updated, treated Brady like family, and made the entire experience stress-free.
