About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!) At Playful Paws, your pet will feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I work fully remote, and so does my husband, which gives us the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some evening cuddles, we’re usually home and available to help. Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.
“This was our first time boarding our senior bull terrier, so we were a little worried as to how he would adapt. Anita made the visit super easy, and Mushy really seemed to enjoy his overnight with her. For those of you with dogs that aren't dog-friendly, Anita's a fantastic option, as she only accepts one client at a time. Highly recommend!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Dog Sitter – I highly recommend Vadim! He took such amazing care of my 11 month puppy, Mei Mei while I was away, and I could truly see how much he loves and understands dogs. From the very start, he was professional, reliable, and kind, making sure to learn all of Mei Mei’s routines, favorite activities, and special needs. Vadim provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing that Mei Mei was happy and well cared for. It was clear she felt comfortable and safe with him, and she even seemed a little sad to see him go! His attention to detail, patience, and genuine affection for animals make him an outstanding sitter. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch over your pet, Vadim is absolutely the best choice. I will definitely be reaching out to him again for future pet-sitting needs!”

She was very loving to my dog. Taylor sent me several pictures and videos of my dog during the day. I would highly recommend Taylor to watch your pet. We are definitely going to use Taylor again to watch my dog. 👏”

“Benson looked very comfortable in his day care photos and was so happy to hear he was well behaved with Porscha and Applejack! I would definitely work with Billi again”
“When I picked up my dog, he looked genuinely happy and comfortable. It was clear he was well cared for and enjoyed his stay. I really appreciate the great care, and I’ll definitely be leaving him more often in the future!”
“I had to find a sitter very last minute due to an unexpected conflict, and Kat truly came through for me when I was in a bind. She responded quickly, was extremely understanding of my situation, and immediately put me at ease. Her communication was excellent—she sent regular updates and photos throughout the day, which really helped calm my anxiety and let me know my pup was happy and well cared for. Kat’s building was a huge bonus—it’s extremely dog-friendly and has the cutest pups lol There was a private dog run right along the water that she was able to take my sweet dolly to,and a gorgeous park just across the street. It was clear from the updates that my dog was getting plenty of outdoor time and stimulation. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better setup. Reliability is everything when trusting someone with your pet, and Kat exceeded expectations. She was warm, professional, and totally dependable. I would absolutely book with her again 💖”

Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.
“This was our first time boarding our senior bull terrier, so we were a little worried as to how he would adapt. Anita made the visit super easy, and Mushy really seemed to enjoy his overnight with her. For those of you with dogs that aren't dog-friendly, Anita's a fantastic option, as she only accepts one client at a time. Highly recommend!”
“Much appreciation to Natalie for taking in my timid recent adoptee during the holiday. It eased my mind to know she was understanding about his situation and would be patient and loving with him. Thank you!”
“Definitely a 5 Star sitter. I contacted Taylor on very short notice. She responded within 10 minutes. She was watching my dog with in 1 hour. My dog Cookie really liked staying with Taylor. She was very loving to my dog. Taylor sent me several pictures and videos of my dog during the day. I would highly recommend Taylor to watch your pet. We are definitely going to use Taylor again to watch my dog. 👏”
“Absolutely fantastic. I plan on using Gheraldine whenever I travel. She’s not the closest, but I feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her. Pics, videos, updates - all the good stuff to make me feel at peace. HIGHLY recommend her services.”
“Kathye was the best sitter I have ever used! She was very professional, sent daily updates/photos, and kept my dog safe for the 3 weeks I was in Europe. My dog did not want to come home! She loved the yard and daily play time. I highly recommend Kathye for your short and long term needs!”
“Lee Ann and her husband Richie were so great to our golden retriever! We received regular pictures and communication and they made the experience of leaving our dog for a weekend less stressful. We would definitely book with them again in the future!”
“Jennifer took great care of Luna! This was the second time Luna stayed over at Jennifer's and she for sure will be back! Luna loves playing with Jennifer's dog Kona”
“I’m so grateful for Felipe and his wife! While I was out of town, my dog was having issues with another sitter and needed a new place to stay on short notice. Felipe went above and beyond to help make arrangements and get my dog into his care. He provided a much more comfortable environment, and my dog was treated with kindness and genuine care. I truly appreciated their help during a stressful situation and highly recommend them!”
“Natalie is the best! Bane loves being over there and loves hanging out with her family and other dogs. Even though i moved further away I still bring my pup to Natalie’s. My dog didn’t even want to leave last time!”
“I wanted to reach out and express my sincere gratitude for the incredible care you provided for my dog. You are absolutely amazing, and I feel so blessed to have found you. After losing my mother, I had to book a sitting appointment on very short notice. You didn't hesitate to help, and you were even kind enough to offer a discount given the circumstances. When I unexpectedly had to extend the boarding, you adjusted immediately without any issue. It is clear that you truly love pets and care for them as if they were your own. I especially appreciated your attention to detail when you had to purchase more food, ensuring you verified the brand and updating me on his preferences. Additionally, please thank Lauren for her help with the daily video and photo updates; they provided such peace of mind. I cannot recommend your services highly enough. Thank you again for being a godsend during such a difficult time. Sasha”
“Antonio was wonderful with Piper! She spent a little over one week with him at his home and I got pictures, updates, and came home to a happy and healthy Chihuahua :)”
“Andrea took exceptional care of my dogs! Kept me updated through the day and sent lots of pics! I will definitely re-book Andrea in the future. Thank you so much!!! Five stars!”
