“Lesly did an excellent job with our puppy for a weekend boarding stay. She was easy to work with and always had quick responses to communications. Very flexible and lots of updates about our pup! Highly recommend!”

“Rina was amazing! It was my first time using this service and I was very nervous and quite anxious. She did a meet and greet and communicated well with me. She even offered to bathe and clip my girls nails. Remind you ALL of my requests were last minute and she accommodated me. She can count me as a regular for sure!”


“Jessica was great with our two fur babies. She and her family made sure they got plenty of exercise in a safe environment. Jessica was also great with communicating and sending photos. Will use again and recommend.”

“I was a little concerned because I had not left Lady with anybody in years. As soon as we got there for the greet and meet, she felt like home. She did not bark at Noleen as she usually does when seen someone for the first time. I left at ease knowing that Lady was comfortable with Noleen. Noleen kept me updated and she even sent me a couple of videos. My Lady was happy when I picked her up. I would recommend Noleen as a pet sitter.”

“She was amazing ! We’ve had bad events happen when going through other boarding places but not here. My dog was happy dropped off and at pickup. First time using this company and I would definitely choose her again. !!”

“Frances was fantastic!! My little guy took right to her. She was great with him, took pictures and text each day so that I was kept updated, which gave me peace of mind while on vacation. I will definitely use Frances from now on!!”


About: I have been passionate about caring for animals from a young age, often taking in and helping stray cats whenever possible. I have an 8 year old Rat Terrier who is in excellent health. I manage his daily feeding, regular walks, grooming, and give him vet checks when needed. I have two cats that I rescued as strays, providing them with a safe and stable home. I also care for a bearded dragon, including maintaining her habitat and breeding Dubia roaches to ensure she has a consistent, nutritious food source along with her vegetables. Through these experiences I feel that I have developed strong skills in animal care and responsibility. I currently work a full-time morning position and am available for pet care services between 2:00 PM and 11:00 PM, seven days a week, with some mornings. I’m also flexible and willing to adjust my schedule or request time off when needed to provide attentive, consistent care for your pets while you’re away. I live in a pet friendly apartment with my own dog and cats, and I’m able to safely walk and care for pets without issue. I like to keep my home calm and secure for my animals, with close attention to their comfort, daily routines and habits. I also have experience managing behaviors such as stress chewing, and I use solutions like crate training when appropriate to ensure both the pet’s safety and the condition of the home. If similar situations occur while caring for a client’s pet, I am confident in my ability to respond responsibly and maintain a safe, clean, and supportive environment at all times.
“We were leaving for a week long honeymoon and didn't want to leave Tera our chihuahua where she was too confined. Jeanie welcomed myself and our doggie into her home. I felt like I had known her for a long time after talking with her for only a few minutes. Tera took to Jeanie immediately and her doggies did too. I felt very comfortable and reassured that she was going to be taken care of of while we were away! 👍❤️😊”

“My dog had a great time in Miah's care, with lots of walks, a trip to the park. She also is a great communicator and a dog lover. I hope to have Miah host my dog again in the future. Your dog will be in great hands with Miah.”

“Sterling was awesome. First off he was available during THANKSGIVING! Like that alone was awesome, it allowed us to go visit Tamil that we haven’t seen in many many years. He was attentive and very communicative during the stay. I loved how he did indeed walk Chaos often. I can tell my pup loved his stay. I’m so happy we went with you Sterling thanks so much again for treating our Chaos right! Will definitely book you anytime we go out of town again! happy holidays.”
About: I've taken care of dogs, birds and cats since I started grad school. Friends and strangers, alike, have relied on me to be consistent and adhere to their fur babies' routines. I'm currently working as an Airbnb host locally so I have plenty of time between setting up for guests to take care of your pets. I keep a staycation bag packed so I can be ready to housesit at anytime. I keep several alarms on my phone while housesitting to make sure I adhere to routine. When I'm sitting dogs, I'm sure to wait the 30 minutes after eating to take them on a walk for good digestion. When I'm sitting cats, I'm sure to clean the litter box nightly so they may stay comfortable.
“Joule C. did an excellent job with my dogs. She kept me informed about their daily activities and sent pictures often. I feel confident that my dogs enjoyed their stay with her almost like a vacation for them. They were able to swim in her pond and be around her dogs. She is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to everything dog related such as diet and training. I appreciate that she took wonderful care of my dogs.”

“Frances is amazing! Having her pet-sit for us was like having a very informed, professional, family member take care of our cat. She reached out before we left to familiarize herself with Elssie's schedule and sent plenty of photos to keep us updated. My husband and I felt like we could trust her fully, and we hope that she'll be available the next time we need someone to pet-sit!”

“Noleen is the best! She went above and beyond for my two kitties, and I was so comforted to know they were in the hands of someone who loves animals as I do. I will definitely be relying on Noleen to care for my pets for the foreseeable future! She is amazing!”


“This was my first experience using a pet-sitter and Rina (Katarina) was awesome! She was so kind, flexible, and accommodating. She was very accessible, responding to any inquiry within minutes, if not within the hour. And she kept me updated with daily messages and pictures of my baby Loki which helped put my mind at ease. She has a heart for animals (cats in particular) and her warm acceptance of my Loki was evident in how relaxed and comfortable he appeared in his pictures. I was able to enjoy my trip confident that my baby Loki had been left in good hands. Rina, I can't thank you and your family enough for your hospitality towards my Loki, and going forward, should I or anyone I know ever need a pet-sitter, I'll b sure to tell them to look no further than you! You're the best-est! 💛”


“Megan was awesome! She made me feel comfortable and the kitties feel loved when I was gone. She was always on time, gave lots of playtime, and sent great reports/pictures. Thank you so much!!!”

About: I have experience caring for cats through both personal and family needs. I’ve babysat a family member’s cat while they were away and have also cared for my three kittens from my own cats, including feeding, cleaning, and monitoring their health everyday. I’m attentive, gentle, and focused on creating a safe, comfortable environment for every cat in my care.
About: I’ve taken care of animals even babies my whole life I even had pets of my own that I cared for very much I had a ferret that was loved by everyone in the house. The only schedule I have is that I can only work every weekday after 4 and every weekend I’m free at any time to work. For my ferret there were certain areas in the house she was not allowed in such as the washroom and the kitchen, those places for her was very dangerous we put up baby gates for her safety and for our concern
About: I was raised with cats and dogs. I read a dog training book when I was in high school. I have always been mission-oriented, and today's mission is to ensure your pets are looked after and that you are confident they are safe and healthy. My schedule revolves around animals. If I'm not spending time with my dogs, then it's my mom's dogs. If it's not her dogs, then it's chickens. (Dogs are more fun, have you tried playing fetch with a chicken?) I will care for your pets with the same love and affection I provide to my own dogs, excluding any rough-housing since my dogs tend to play quite boisterously. I will diligently follow all instructions to the best of my abilities and will communicate promptly if I encounter any difficulties, seeking an alternative solution.

“Joy took such good care of our elderly cat! We really appreciated all the extra effort with his litter box, trash, and keeping up with his medicine! She was incredibly professional and reliable.”


“Jeanie made sure I was updated on our pups with each visit and sent photos/videos to help reassure me they were being loved on and played with at each visit. She was quick to respond to communications and in asking any questions to ensure she cared for Sophie and Duke well!”


About: Little Angel's dog boarding specializes in small dogs. Hello my name is Jessica and I am a dog owner and lover.I decided to work with dogs because I really enjoy being around of them.Every time I go out of town and leave our dog I feel very worried about him. I start thinking about who is going to watch him and become very worried. So I started to think that I love dogs and would be the perfect person to watch someone else’s little angel.My house is 100 % fenced with a 6 foot fence, I have a nice sized backyard.I live in a nice neighborhood safe for taking walks.I also have some grooming training, I personally cut our dog's hair. My dog is a French Poodle so it requires some skill to groom him. I have never worked as a professional groomer. I did my training exclusively for my dog, he is very spoiled and he used to cry so much when somebody else even brushed his hair. I decided to get the training to keep him happy. For an extra cost I can offer baths including ear cleaning.For me safety and comfort is of paramount importance.Your dog will have access to the backyard but will sleep inside of the house. I encourage owners to bring their dogs bed and favorite toy so they will feel a little more like they are at home.Your dog will get two daily walks and also play time in the backyard.Your dog will receive lots of attention all day long. I am doing this because I love animals but especially dogs!I can take pictures so you can see how your dog is doing. We can even schedule a skype video chat so you can see your dog in case you miss him as much as I miss my little guy when I am away.Dogs who stay for 5 days or more receive a toy to take home. I love all kinds of dogs but I have some restrictions for now. I can only watch dogs less than 20 pounds and I can’t dog sit a Rottweiler or Pitbull. This is because I have a little girl and my dog is a toy size so I am worried about their safety.I can’t love your dog like you do, but I promise he will be loved.Hablo espanol.

I’m comfortable with all size dog breeds as long as they are ok with me. My dogs will eat before I do and I put my boys first.
