Highly-rated overnight sitters - Dawson
“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 Awesome! Very kind and sweet and cared for my dog as if he was her own❤️she communicate well and kept me updated with pictures everyday on how my dog was doing. She has a very nice home and a perfect environment for a dog. This was my first time leaving my dog in someone else’s care but she made me feel so comfortable and I had no worries. I would definitely recommend booking with her because I’m definitely booking again when the time comes, thank you Jessica!!!”

“This was the first time ever boarding my pup and Kathy was great with my Jax as usual! She sent me updates during my time away and Jax had the best time staying with her once again. Jax will definitely be back!”

“We are so happy that we left our puppies Suka with Noleen. She sent us updates the whole time we were gone at Universal Studios and we are glad she had such a good time playing with the other dogs. We appreciate how well she took care of our puppy.”
“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!!”

“Merle LOVED his visit! I was updated with pics/texts & all the things! Loved like he was hers! I felt such at peace with him there! You can tell instantly she loves all the babies like her own! We will 100% be using her again! Thank you again for all of your help & even the extras! She even gave Merle a haircut cause I mentioned he needed one! Top notch! She is truly the sweetest & you will be totally pleased with the care for your baby!”


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.

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.
“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!”


“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.”

About: I have volunteer experience for 3 years at my aunts vet . I would walk, groom, feed, and play with the dogs. The job was amazing, no dog left unhappy! I am a full time worker, my schedule does not extend the whole day. I only work 4-5 days out the week. I am a full time student with classes online. I care for all the pets the same. Each pet will get the best treatment. I treat as if their my own. Especially special needed dogs. If there are instructions on what a pet needs or can not have, it will be followed through and taking seriously. I go by the owners schedule.

“Alex and Diane are great people and took amazing care of my animal! Super sweet and was very caring of what my cat needed, and very knowledged on top of that. Very happy with them.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Dawson
“Lesly is absolutely amazing. After meeting her yesterday, I decided to book doggy day care for today, and I am so happy I did because not only did I have a longer-than-expected day, but my baby was also well cared for and not lonely at home.”

“Ace loved his first month at daycare and we (his family members) did too. Every time we took him, he was ready to get out. He will be going back. Keep up the great work with our fur babies Ms. Noleen.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud mother of five who truly enjoys caring for animals like family. Being a natural caregiver comes naturally to me, and creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for pets is something I genuinely enjoy. Our family lives on a beautiful 15-acre property with plenty of open space for dogs to run, explore, and play. We also have fully fenced front and back yards for extra safety and peace of mind. We’re a very active family that loves spending time outdoors playing fetch, catch, tag, and going on daily walks. Our dogs are extremely friendly, well-socialized, and love both people and other animals. We take several walks each day and make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, affection, and playtime while in our care. When your dog stays with us, they’ll be treated like one of our own — with love, patience, attention, and personalized care. We take great pride in providing a trustworthy, fun, and comfortable experience for every pet we welcome into our home! As a stay at home care taker, I serve others with the upmost care. Schedules routes for both my children and our pets. We own dogs, goats and chickens all equally apart of our family. Fences and other safety measures are in place to ensure care and security for all animals. We are an organic farm so the health of everyone is top priority.
