“Janet was the best! I was nervous to leave my dog behind, but she eased my fears. She sent me pictures every day and her dogs welcomed my dog into their pack right away. He was sad to come home! I couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful sitter. We’ll definitely be repeat customers! Thank you, Janet!”
“Bernie’s hosts were wonderful, especially in the unflustered and caring way they dealt with a transportation crisis my wife and I had. They made me feel like they would have happily made extra room in their family for another week as cooly as they did for an extra day. Bernie is an untroubled, self-confident old girl who enjoys human and canine company, and this was a great environment for her with very nice dog-loving people.”
“Tanisha is the Best!!. We got daily pictures, videos and updates. I highly recommend Tanisha’s home lots of fun and all the loving care our Frankie received while in her home.”
“Kamiah and Casius were great sitters for Bailey. For me, it was a very last minute booking and Kamiah was incredibly accommodating to make it work. She was also very quick to contact us on the first day when Bailey wasn't eating (but everything was fine, as this is how Bailey always is at a new place), and Bailey looked very happy in the photos and videos we got each day. Also, Kamiah's pick-up and drop-off were prompt and efficient. I definitely plan to use them again!”
“You and your family were truly wonderful. Thank you so much for embracing my fur baby and making him feel right at home. The constant reassurance, the beautiful pictures, and the updates meant more to me than you know. I could tell he was being loved and well cared for the entire time. You were also incredibly flexible and attentive, which I truly appreciate. I’m so grateful for the care you gave — we will definitely be back! A++++++++”

She sent me pictures and communicated with me continuously throughout the stay. I could see Stone opening up and enjoying himself. I’m so grateful for her loving care and warmth. Shani is definitely like extended family now, and Stone won’t be staying anywhere else. If you care about your fur baby and want them to be well-loved, book with Shani.”

I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, and keeping their environment clean and low-stress. Working with shelter cats taught me how to read body language and build trust, so I’m especially mindful of boundaries and making sure your cat feels comfortable! I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your cat is doing, and I’ll treat your home with care and respect. I’d love to help make your time away a little easier for both you and your cat 🐱💛

About: While I do not currently share my life with a dog of my own (it's a matter of being unable to adopt every dog I lay my eyes on!), I dearly love helping pet parents keep their dogs happy and healthy and preferably in their own homes while their owners are away. I love to travel,and love to spend time with as many dogs as I can possibly fit into my day. You can often find me chatting with others about their animals, and I am always interested in hearing about every little detail. I enjoy helping people get a greater understanding regarding the welfare of their animals, and sometimes bore my friends with random and obscure dog breeds, and what I know of their temperament and behavior. I'm proud to say I try to research as many breeds as I can so that I know what to expect, and hey, it's always fun to just know why and how a breed came into existence! I happen to also be studying veterinary technology, for the knowledge of nutrition and behavior, since surgery is more information than I want. :D I am also very happy to drop by or stay with your cats, and am quite used to the varying personalities of these small creatures: the ones who like to play hide and seek, the aloof, the playful, and the grumpy. I don't mind at all, as long as the cat is comfortable, eating, and using their litter box, all is well! I can work my day around your dog or cat, as I am a dedicated sitter, and much prefer to spend my time enjoying the company of cats and dogs as much as I can. I much prefer to stay with the dog or cat in their own home, as having their familiar surroundings help them remain peaceful, happy, and comfortable.
“Gionna was great! From the first message I sent to inquire through the last message after her last walk with Roxy! Her communication was spot on and her care for Roxy was very assuring. She came for a meet and greet since she was Roxy’s first walker. They hit it off and had great walks while I was gone making me more relaxed and less worried to enjoy my weekend away. Thank you Gionna, we can’t wait to work with you again!”
About: I have loved pets since I was a kid. I was obsessed with learning about them. After my first pet died, I was very motivated on learning about how to offer pets the very best life, and this comes through research! I have worked with a variety of animals. Working at PetSmart allowed me to get a better hands on experience as it opened a door to working with cats, sick animals who needed medication, and working with large numbers of pets. This also helped me see what methods worked and what methods to avoid when taking care of our beloved pets. I have a very flexible schedule and will be available for you and your pets. I don’t have a set schedule yet due to work and school. Safety is my top priority. You know your pet best, I will work with what I have and incorporate new techniques and ideas once your pet trusts me. I have a porch that is safe meanwhile my garage is being built at the moment.
“Roxy is the best. If I could, I would give her 10 stars. Amber has had 3 walks with Roxy now and she loves it. Amber is a 8 month old puppy who is not easy to handle. Roxy takes her time to make my pup comfortable and happy. She gives out a gist at the end of each walk and it really gives me a collective idea on how to train my dog. We are really happy with Roxy and we are planning to be her repeat client.”
“We have been consistently using Beverly since our pup was 3 months old. Beverly does weekly walks for us as well as daycare and overnight stays. Charley loves her Beverly and she has quickly become part of our family.”
About: I have taken care of family pets my whole life, no pets are allowed in my household so I have taken every opportunity to interact with and care for animals outside of my home. I make sure to keep up with their needs while also providing them an enjoyable environment! I work from home so I am able to relocate wherever there is WiFi connection, the work isn’t too demanding so I am able to care for pets immediately. I work 8:00 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday and have 24/7 availability! I have an hour lunch break and am also available anytime after work and on weekends! I cannot have animals in my home so being in a clients home is best for me. I adhere to all instruction given by owners and follow the schedules set for the animal. I am open to entertaining and watching after the animal at all hours!
About: I’ve had my dog Ace (Cane Corso/Lab mx) for 4 years. Although my family has been fortunate enough to take care of him together, I understand the struggle of finding someone who will care properly for your pet as you do. Pets are our chosen family, and I will ensure your pet is properly cared for. In addition to my dog, I have 3 years of experience in animal husbandry from my previous position as a animal care technician I work another during the week. My most consistent availability is Saturday and Sundays (mornings, afternoons, early evening) for pet sitting and/or walking your pet. I walk my dog 3x a day. I am also sure to change and clean his water bowl multiple times a day. Any special instructions or requests for your pet with be met
About: I've cared for dogs for most of my life and have owned more than three dogs over the years. Taking care of them has given me a lot of experience with their daily needs and routines. I have experience caring for elderly dogs and understand that they need extra patience and attention. I'm comfortable following their daily routine, giving medications when needed, preparing meals, taking them on slow and gentle walks. I also pay close attention to changes in their behavior or appetite. I have cared for my neighbors' dogs when they've been out of town. During those times, I've visited their home three times a day to feed the dogs, refill their water bowls, let them outside for bathroom breaks, take them for walks when needed, and spend quality time with them so they wouldn't feel lonely. I also made sure the home was secure, cleaned up after the dogs, and followed any special instructions the owners left for me. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn each dog's personality, energy level, and routine. Whether a dog enjoys playing, going on walks or simply relaxing and getting lots of attention, I'm happy to provide the care they need. I currently work from home in an administrative part time position which gives me the flexibility to care for your furry friend. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can easily accommodate walks, feeding times, potty breaks, playtime, medication schedules, and plenty of companionship. I believe that many pets are at their happiest when they can stay in their own home or environment and follow their normal routine. My goal is to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I'll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and any special care your pet needs. In addition to caring for your pet, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep food and water bowls clean, pick up after your pet, if needed, and make sure your home is tidy and secure before I leave. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for until you return.
About: Bone-afide dog person looking to love on some doggies when their parents can’t. I lost my dog son some years back and rescued a baby boy from the city pound a year ago. I love doggies & spending time with them is a joy for me. I am flexible but generally available for walks early morning (6am - 9am) weekdays & weekends, afternoons Tues, Thurs - Sun and early evenings (5-7pm) weekdays. I know every parent has their own vibe & care routines at home, so I will work to maintain that when caring for your pet baby.
About: I believe the best pet care starts with listening. With a 5-year-old German Shepherd (Niko) and a 7-year-old cat at home, I’ve spent years mastering the "silent language" of animals. Whether your pet is high-energy or shy, I prioritize reading their body language to ensure they feel safe, respected, and calm. Why Choose Me? • Large Breed Expert: Raising a GSD from a puppy means I’m confident and steady with big dogs. • Cat Savvy: Raised my cat from a kitten; I understand feline boundaries and "slow-burn" trust. • Bilingual Training: My pets are bilingual. I am happy to maintain your pet’s specific language or hand-signal commands to keep their training consistent. • Family Trusted: I’ve been my sister’s go-to caregiver for years because pets naturally gravitate toward my calm, gentle energy. My Promise: No force, no stress—just attentive, professional care tailored to your pet's unique personality. I work full-time from home, which allows me to be physically present and attentive throughout the day for pet owners who need overnight or house sitting needs. My remote setup offers the flexibility to take frequent breaks for potty runs, playtime, or mid-day walks to keep your pet’s routine on track. I am flexible to accommodate special weekday requests. Since I have my own fur baby at home (Niko), I am happy to coordinate a schedule that balances his needs but also giving your pet 100% of my focus. My goal is to provide a seamless, low-stress experience that makes your pet feel like you never left. I will build safety and trust in your home by strictly following your established routines and utilizing my deep understanding of animal body language. I believe in giving pets the space they need to approach me on their own terms, ensuring every interaction is rooted in consent and calm energy.
About: I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and different energy levels, and I always focus on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine as a nursing student because spending time with animals helps me stay active, reduce stress, and recharge mentally. Daily walks help me get my steps in, and being around dogs honestly makes even the busiest days better. I enjoy giving pets lots of attention, playtime, and care while keeping their routines consistent and owners updated. I grew up helping care for my mom’s dogs and now have a cat of my own who means everything to me. I also regularly care for my mom’s dogs when my family travels to Mexico, so I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines independently. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13, mainly my own, but I’ve also taken care of friend’s and family friend’s dogs in these past 3 years, so I understand the anxiety or fear of leaving a part of your family in the care of someone that isn’t you and won’t treat your pet like you will. That’s why I always adjust and accommodate my services to every pet’s needs. When it comes to basic care of pets, I always take puppies and dogs on walks at whichever time of day that they need to go out, always making sure to bring snacks and water so they always stay hydrated and healthy. I make sure they have enough playtime inside and outside so they don’t get bored and are entertained. I understand that not every dog wants to play or can’t move too much, so I of course adjust these activities to accommodate every pet’s individual needs so they’re always comfortable and happy. I also have experience with senior care, specifically giving dogs the medicines they need at the intended hours of the day or night. It goes without saying that my main priority are the pets in my care so I also make sure to always check up on every pet at different hours and times, rarely leaving them out of my sight (while also keeping my distance if they’re resting) to ensure they’re always okay. I work part-time remotely since I finished university in March of 2024. So I have no issues with times and days that will work best for you and your pets! I care for pets in client’s homes by making sure they’re never missing anything, from food, water, toys, time to go to the bathroom, medicines if they take them, etc… I make sure pets understand I’m simply there as an aid for them and someone they can play with if they choose to! I’m simply there to ensure every pet is taken care of while also having time to play and give them their space, after all, it’s their home and they need to feel the most comfortable and safe in their own space.

I treat every pet like family and always aim to provide dependable, loving care. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine.

I do believe in treating all animals with the same care and respect. One of my special skills is I can take care of any dog. No matter the size or the amount of work needed, I will make sure your dog receives the same love and affection you desire for it to have. You will not find anyone more loving and caring about dogs than I am. I also have a bunch of energy and love to play with energetic dogs. I am also great with older dogs who would much rather take it easy. I have extensive knowledge in dog sitting. I used to work for Pups Pet Club and through the organization I’ve learned how to take care of dogs any size.
About: I have taken care of my dog since she was a baby. I trained her to sit , and potty trained her, she’s now 11yrs old My neighbors and friends relied on me to take care of their pets by feeding them, cleaning their poop, changing their pads and giving them attention. I can work extra hours when I’m not working in my first job . I can babysit your dog in your house , do overnight in weekends. I could take them for a walk to the park or around the neighborhood. We could play games. We could just sit in front or in the backyard and relax .

“This is Manuel’s 2nd time watching my kitty Luna and he was just as awesome as the first time! He sent me a ton of photos, was very flexible with pick up and drop off times and overall very communicative.”
“Nemo took to Kathleen right away. She kept him busy with walking and playing with her children. She is a dog lover! He is as in good hands. Sent several pics too. Would definitely ask her to sit again.”
“Bernie’s hosts were wonderful, especially in the unflustered and caring way they dealt with a transportation crisis my wife and I had. They made me feel like they would have happily made extra room in their family for another week as cooly as they did for an extra day. Bernie is an untroubled, self-confident old girl who enjoys human and canine company, and this was a great environment for her with very nice dog-loving people.”
“Chelsea is such a wonderful sitter !!! My dog absolutely loves her and her family. It’s great knowing that my dog is in great hands when I’m away and Chelsea always takes great care of her. Highly recommend Chelsea !!”
“Tabitha is the best. Have recommended her to friends. Our pup basically has a fun filled vacation of her own every time we go on our human vacations. Tabitha takes great pics too!”
“Tonisha is very kind, flexible, responsive. I missed my drop off window and she was very gracious. She shared daily photos and asked about Langston’s behaviors to ensure he was safe i.e.going on walks, etc. If possible, we hope to work with her again.”
“5 stars all around! She kept me updated about my baby and definitely worked with my schedule. I appreciated her very much. I will be booking with her more often.”

“If I could give Matthew and Leslie 20 stars I would. They were professional from the meet and greet until it was time to drop my dog off. Their yard was so clean and well maintained. And there dog got alone so good with my dog. We will definitely be using them again.”
“Shani was the best choice for our fur baby! I was worried about leaving our baby, Stone, for so long, but Shani made me feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and communicated with me continuously throughout the stay. I could see Stone opening up and enjoying himself. I’m so grateful for her loving care and warmth. Shani is definitely like extended family now, and Stone won’t be staying anywhere else. If you care about your fur baby and want them to be well-loved, book with Shani.”
“My dog was so spoiled and well taken care of while staying with Barbara! Definitely rebooking for our next trip! Barbara was amazing with communication, sent updates daily and pictures and videos daily, which eased my mind quite a bit. I couldn’t be happier with the Service and Care she provided to my dog!”
“Tim is a great guy who is amazing with animals. He provided pictures and updates every day. My dog did not even want to leave. He obviously provided great care and was very flexible with my schedule for pick up and drop off. I really appreciate his dedication and genuine love of animals.”
“Cary is amazing. I was updated daily with pictures and my dogs look so happy ! I was a nervous wreck leaving them because this is the first time I’ve boarded them. But that fear is gone and I will definitely be booking again during my next getaway.”
“Bianca absolutely loves Dayana and I do too! She keeps me informed through the night and she’s always available to watch her! She has other pups there which Bianca thrives on! She has dog toys and a fenced yard! She is very accommodating and understanding of Bianca’s food schedule! She even will give her filtered water, talk about spoiled! 🤣 book with her, you won’t be disappointed and bright will your fur baby! My mind is always at ease when she’s under her care <3”
“I am very particular about who I let be around my fur babies so finding Dominique was heaven sent! She’s amazing and does well with handling both of my pits who I know have tons of energy! I appreciate her a lot!”
“Bridget was amazing with our dog, Miller. Miller has separation anxiety and can be a hit or miss with sitters, but he warmed up to Bridget and her family right away. Great communication and felt extremely comfortable. Would highly recommend to let your dog stay with her family and pup of her own who is both adorable and friendly.”
“Ania was great! Very professional, kind and reliable sitter. Simba had a wonderful stay with Ania! Lots of photo/video updates, I can see my dog was truly well taken care of! Will definitely book with her again in a future 💕”
