“Heidi & Steve helped me out at the last minute for a medical emergency. They were responsive and thoughtful. They were flexible about time and pickups. Benji was so happy at the home with the large yard and lots of attention. He is 13 so doesn’t need long walks, just loves to cuddle and play. He does like to take over the best chair or couch and they let him have the best spots. They gave him all his meds and special food. Thank you again.”
“Alexandra was very easy going and not difficult about modifying pick-up time when i had to change it, she also provided updates about my dog (daily) with pictures of him and overall I was very happy. Cosmo my dog was happy too.”

“Valerie was wonderful! We received daily updates and photos and she responded quickly to any communications. I felt our cat Bridgette was in the best hands. I would leave more stars if I could!”
“Martin and his wife are lovely people and have a really nice home for their dog and the dogs they dog sit. Our dog was extremely happy when we picked him up and very tired because he played all day during his stay. He was well cared for and we will definitely use Martin again. We received updates with pictures and Martin was also very flexible and easy to work with regarding drop off and pick up. I would highly recommend Martin for your pet. ”

About: I have saved and cared for dogs, cats and different pets since my childhood as an assistant to my veterinarian father. I learned kindness and love it’s what they need most !

“Yamile was amazing, took such God care of my Diamond, Kept in contact with me sent me pictures and informed me on her daily progress. I've never left my baby with anyone other than family and was a bit nervous about this, but I would definitely do this again and Yamile would be perfect for anyone else that also needs there pet or pets watched. .”
“Dee was absolutely wonderful!! This was my first time ever boarding my dogs, she truly set my mind at ease. (I didn’t even cry leaving them for the first time). She was welcoming to my dogs, took it slow with them, and allowed them to sniff around during our first introduction. My dogs were calm with her while showing us around, and she understood the needs of my senior girl Roo. My dogs boarded overnight with Dee for the first time (first time with her and first time ever boarding!) and then the same week Dee took them for daycare. My dogs knew where we were going when I dropped them off a second time - neither were bothered, they walked in and seamed to know where they were going. When I picked up my dogs they were happy (not traumatized even in the slightest bit for me having left them), both times they were tired when they got home. Dee took them for walks, sent my photos and kept me informed. In highly recommend Dee! She is a lifesaver and I plan to use here whenever I need daycare/boarding! Thanks!”
“Thank you so much for watching our ACE for eight days really appreciate it. He really likes you. We will definitely book with you again thank you thank you thank you. VERY HAPPY WITH YOUR SERVICE.”

“Kailey was a great sitter for my two cats. Someone who’s was supposed to take care of my cats bailed out, so it was a last minute call to find a cat sitter. I remember contacting Kailey before but her schedule didn’t work for us. Thank God this time she was available and my instinct was not wrong. Kailey was sweet, responsible and kept the litter area clean. Kailey sent us the pictures daily and left daily notes. We are very happy with her and will definitely contact her in near future.”
“Isabela was a great cat sitter for our feline family. We had never tried a professional sitter before and were anxious about the experience especially the care of our cats. Isabela was very patient with us and our fur babies and made the visits as stressful as free as possible. We look forward to having her for our future trips and I’d bet our fur babies are excited to see her again as well.”

“Definitely five stars for Lissette. She kept me updated throughout the day on Bella‘s progress. I feel like she went above and beyond, and I am so grateful to have found her.”
“It's our first time to send our golden, Mochi, to daycare and I was pleased during her stay with Nathalia. Nathalia made an effort to get to know Mochi. Mochi's a puppy so Nathalia knows the energy that Mochi requires and the amount of rest that she needed after her play. Nathalia has a good amount of space where Mochi can run around too. Highly recommended and we'll definitely be availing her services again :=)”
“Martin took time to meet Axel and Finn to be certain that they and his other charges would get along. And, they did. Axel and Finn made themselves comfortable and at home, as we could see in the photos Martin so kindly texted during their stay. Axel and Finn are BIG boys - each over 90 pounds - and Martin handled them with aplomb. Hoping they'll have the pleasure of Martin's company again, and soon!”

About: I work from home so your pet will never be without attention. I have a big fenced in back yard and salt water pool that dogs love!! I live close to parks and walking trails, so it’s like sending your pup to summer camp 🏕️ I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and I love getting to know each one. I spend time playing, watching, and listening, because every dog communicates differently. I’m quick to pick up on what they need. I’m loyal, consistent, and fully present. I work with puppies on basic training and pool safety, helping them build confidence early on. I also do water therapy for older dogs who need low-impact movement and have had great success helping manage and decrease their pain. Whether it’s training, playing, exercise, or just company, I focus on what’s best for each dog. My constant interaction and attentiveness toward each dogs individual needs sets me apart from others. I am willing to work with any and all requirements your dog may need. No request is too much, my goal is a sense of comfort and trust for all owners. I care for all animals as if they were my own, and I prioritize owners feeling confident that their pet is receiving the same care they would at home. Experience with senior dogs, rescue dogs, dog reactive dogs, and restricted breeds like pit bulls. I love having them all! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or additional needs/specific requirements! Working remote, I have the luxury of being home to focus on pet care. It is a part of my daily life, it's never something I squeeze in, it’s something I show up for. I plan my days around the animals I’m caring for and have no problem giving the time, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day play, consistent training, or quiet evening check-ins, I’m flexible and fully committed to their routine. I treat every home and every pet with care and respect. I follow the wishes of the owners and the pet’s routine closely so both you and your pet feel safe and secure, whether I’m staying in their space or welcoming them into mine. I keep environments calm, clean, and pet-proofed, and I’m adept at staying tuned to their body language and energy. I build trust by being present, consistent, and patient. Their safety and comfort come first, always.
“I had an excellent experience with Christina! She sent me photos of my baby throughout the day so I would know he was alright. She and her husband were very kind to my dog and took the time to pet and comfort him. She has 2 very cute fur babies of her own to keep your dog company. I will definitely use Christina again in the future.”
“Viviana was excellent watching my 5 year old black lab. I felt very comfortable with her after meeting at the meet and greet, which made me feel way less anxious in leaving my dog with a new sitter. She asked lots of questions and interacted well with my dog. During his stay, Viviana sent regular photo updates where I could see that he was having a great time. I absolutely would recommend Viviana and have already booked her again for doggy day care.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. While I listed 15 years of experience, the reality is that I grew up with dogs and have spent years caring for my own, including senior dogs with specific routines and needs. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs who need a real walk, as well as older dogs who need patience, consistency, and a slower pace. As a high school teacher and football coach, reliability, communication, and responsibility are core parts of who I am. I show up when I say I will, follow instructions carefully, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both dogs and their owners. For June and July, I’ll have flexible availability day or night and am looking forward to spending that time doing something I genuinely enjoy: getting outside, staying active, and taking great care of dogs. As a teacher and coach, I’m used to structured routines, consistency, and early mornings, and working into the evenings—so pet care fits naturally into how I already live. During June and July, I’ll have especially flexible availability, which makes it easy for me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the day and evening. I believe good pet care starts with consistency, attentiveness, and following the owner’s routine as closely as possible. Whether that means walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, medications (if clearly instructed), or simply keeping a dog company, I aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. For boarding in our home, dogs will have access to a secure fenced yard for outdoor time, as well as an individual outdoor pen if for supervised fresh air and space to relax. We also have crates available if your dog is crate-trained or prefers that routine. Our home includes senior dogs of our own, so I’m especially mindful of temperament, comfort, and introductions, but for dogs that enjoy companionship, there may also be opportunities for calm social interaction and play. I’m also a strong communicator and will keep owners updated so they always know their pet is in good hands

Our dog was extremely happy when we picked him up and very tired because he played all day during his stay. He was well cared for and we will definitely use Martin again.

“Jonathan was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with Kevlar and Polar. My family felt so blessed that we were able to find someone and now have someone we can trust our babies with after such a stressful search. Kevlar and Polar truly enjoy themselves. Jonathan not only sent pictures and videos but communicated as well regarding their stay and progress. We absolutely plan on using him permanently with our babies. Look no further, Jonathan is as perfect as his reviews.”
About: I’ve always had dogs and I love caring for them. If you are looking for a responsible adult to love and care for your fur baby like they are family you have the right lady. I am currently working part time and I had plenty of flexibility to care for your fur babies. I treat each family individually and will connect with to set up specific requests. Dogs are free range in my home. I do not kennel them unless that’s what they are used to. I have a dog park in my neighborhood for play time, walks for exercise, and I have a big back yard for potty breaks.
“My dog stayed with Caitlin in her home for almost 10 days and she did a wonderful job. I have a young Australian Shepherd who needs a lot of exercise and stimulation and he loved his stay at Camp Caitlin! She was very thorough in understanding his needs and routines in order to keep him safe and happy during his stay and keep the transition as low-stress as possible. We also did a meet and greet ahead of booking so I could see where my pup would be staying which was very comforting. She sent pictures and communicated with me everyday and truly treated my dog as her own. 10/10 would book with her again, for long stays, daycare, walks and everything in between. As a very attached dog -mom, I would always recommend!!”
