“Thank you, Jessica for taking great care of Teddy! Your quick responses and daily pictures and updates made us feel very connected and assured that Teddy was in great hands. We would feel very comfortable to have you take care of Teddy again whenever we need to go away.”
“Teresa was the best sitter, I loved that she gave updates daily and contacted me multiple times daily and also sent pictures and my baby always looked happy and peaceful. It’s really hard to leave your small dogs with someone new but she eases my worries. My dog is difficult to care for and requires a lot of extra attention, at night and with potty breaks he tends to mark or go where he’s not supposed to. But Teresa was very patient with him. Thanks so much ! Will use her again soon”
“Lee Ann took amazing care of Simba! He can be a somewhat anxious dog but it was apparent that he immediately felt at home with Lee Ann and her family. She kept him busy and loved and cared for, and helped me feel at ease with regular photos and videos of his adventures at her home.”
“Appreciated the check-in pictures and daily updates. My dog seemed to have a great time at Natalie’s and even had a few other friends to play with. Natalie was also very professional, and I’d be happy to leave my dog with her again!”
“Jessica was the best! She has great energy and will protect your dogs at all cost! My two girls are not quite trained yet and my anxiety for leaving was sky high but Jessica reassured me they were ok and she made whatever adjustments she needed to for everyone to have a great experience. Highly recommend.”
“I hit the jackpot with Debi and her husband. They could not have been a better choice to take care of my dogs. I had total trust in them from the moment I saw how they were with my two and the daily photos showed my dogs were happy with them too. When next I go out of town, they will be my first choice.”
“Valeria and her husband were great with Mischa! They were super friendly and I felt very comfortable leaving her with them. They have a nice gated complex which made me feel comfortable. They are super close to the airport which is great for me. I also like that they don't host an unlimited amount of pets. I've used some sitters that will have like ten animals there and just let them run around and do whatever. Valeria and her husband will give your animal all of the attention they need! She sent me pictures too which I always love! I highly recommend her and plan to use her every time I need a sitter for Mischa.”
“Fantastic experience and great communication before, during and even after our dog’s stay. We got a clean, healthy and happy dog back after 10 days. Clean house with fenced backyard, we will certainly be return customers!”
“Taylor was amazing with my dog Ozzy! She kept me updated, made me feel completely comfortable while I was away, and treated him like her own. Ozzy was so happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would absolutely trust Taylor again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Absolutely amazing and I highly recommend! Valeria and her family are absolutely incredible. I am that protective dog mom that always wants to make sure that my baby is taken care of and I could’ve not asked for a better family than hers to watch my Macimus for the weekend. She was in constant communication with me always updating me with photos and even made me a Mother’s Day card from Mac when I picked him up. She truly goes above and beyond and I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a lovely and responsible family to take care of your fur baby when you are out of town.”
“Juan Pablo provided an amazing environment for my timid pup! He sent frequent updates and pictures and I felt comfortable knowing my dog was safe and well cared for. Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Jerrie and Freeman are the nicest folks who truly care that your pet is healthy, happy and having fun! Lots of updates with video and pictures. They will treat your pet like family.”
“Our rescues spent time away from our home for the first time with Elizabeth. Beforehand, we had a meet and greet with Elizabeth at her home. We were impressed with the space in her home along with her easily accessible yard for her furry clients. The wonderful bonus was her two young boys who clearly love dogs! Our Peaches and Coco settled in and we received both video and photos of their stay which was reassuring. We have already booked Elizabeth and her boys for our next travel later this month. Highly recommend!”
“Valerie and her family were extremely accommodating to my dog. First time my dog has been away from us for a while. My dog Hollie enjoyed herself and was well taken care of. Valerie and her family are great because they updated us with pictures and made sure Hollie got plenty full play time. I would recommend them !!”
“Irina was an amazing sitter for Benji. she sent lots of photos and videos of my dog having an amazing time, very easy to communicate with, and loved on Benji as her own. Highly recommended and will be booking again in the future!”
“Kelly is amazing!! She was very careful to make sure she understood our dog and her specific routine. Our dog had such a great time and really enjoyed playing and hanging out with Kelly’s dog. We have already booked again for an upcoming trip. We highly recommend Kelly!!”
“Felipe did an amazing job taking care of my cats, Otto and Atila. He was very attentive and caring, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I really appreciated the frequent photo updates — it was great to see them relaxed and happy while I was away. I would definitely recommend Felipe and would gladly trust him with my cats again. Thank you so much!”
“Payal was amazing taking care of Ted! Communication was 10/10: she shared pictures and videos all the time, and I could clearly see my dog was happy and in great hands. I strongly recommend her!”
“Camilla and her mom were wonderful. They sent pictures of my dogs everyday to update us. They have a gated house which I loved. Both my dogs are medium sized. Would leave my babies with them again. Thank you ladies!”

“As a worried mom of a 9 week old puppy I was hesitant to leave her with someone new for the first time but Natalie made me feel so much at ease updating me throughout the day while I was at work and and reassuring me that she was doing great. I will be booking with her again! 🐶”
“Maria is truly exceptional. She and her family take care of my girls with so much love and attention . She keeps me updated with photos and messages, and it’s obvious how comfortable and happy they are in her home. One of my girls is very shy, yet she literally jumps out of the car to go to Maria’s house — and for me, that says everything. Knowing they’re treated like part of the family is the greatest peace of mind. I couldn’t recommend Maria more highly!”

“Francis was amazing! I had never left our 4 month old puppy with a dogsitter before, but I felt so comfortable leaving him with Francis. She has a beautiful open home where the doggies can play inside and outside all day and receive lots of human attention. When I brought our dog back for the second day he was so excited to see Francis! She is so warm and loving. I have already booked her again.”
“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 💖”

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and currently have a cat of my own. I grew up around lots of dogs through friends and family and have always been very comfortable with them and around different personalities and energy levels.

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!)

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.

She kept us updated, sent pics and you got the sense that all was well. When we picked up Zena, she was fine and happy and perfect. We would not hesitate to leave Zena with her again or to refer her to our dear friends.”
“Our senior German Shepherd, Warwick, stayed with Natalie for 4 nights. Natalie kept us updated with news and photos from his stay, and we felt comfortable knowing that our boy was in good hands. We will definitely reach out to Natalie again. Having a senior dog is a responsibility and I knew he was well cared for. Thank you.”
