“It’s so cute to see my Chaseypoo interact with Amia and Joshua, the kids and their pups. They adore her and she comes home happy and tired and ready for a nap.”

“Thaaaannnkkk you Toya! She was wonderful throughout the whole process. Great communication, was able to accommodate only a few days prior of notification, and flexible with the booking! Dropoff was easy, and my dog didn't even bark when she came out (always a good sign of a dog person!). Of course he would have a small incident in her residence, Toya was informative in what happened and was still patient and kind. We would definitely consider using her again.”

“Sheree was a great dog sitter while we were out of town. She kept us informed of everything via texts, pictures, and videos. It was very calming knowing that our pup was in good hands while we were out of town. I highly recommend her services if you need an experienced dog sitter! She is absolutely phenomenal”

“Juliana is amazing. She was able to accommodate on such a last minute booking. Her eager to understand your pet is beyond grateful. She cares to the needs of the your pet in every aspect including teaching and developing. We look forward to holding onto Juliana for future bookings and continuing seeing her grow with her pet care and support. Thanks for everything Juliana, we appreciate you so much.”
“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“Many many thanks to Joy and Dan! I was anxious leaving Winston with someone I did not know but right away they put me at ease. We had our meet and greet and Winston took to one of their children immediately. During Winston’s stay, Joy and Dan sent photo updates - Winston was having a great time and had settled in well. My only concern was that Winston was having so much fun he wouldn’t want to come back home! I cannot recommend Joy and Dan highly enough and will definitely rebook, pending their availability.”
“Monica and Daniel are very wonderful people who take excellent care of our furry baby! Right off the bat when we first met them we got an excellent first impression. They are very warm and friendly and were great with our pet! They play with her and take her for walks. When we came home after our weekend away our pet was relaxed and happy. During our time away, they sent us photos and updates of our baby which was really nice ? I look forward to booking them again in the future!! Even my 7 y.o. son likes them too and told me that we should leave our pet again with them next time. Thanks for doing such a great job, keep up the great work!! ❤”

“Holly and kiddos took such great care of Lacey. I felt so comfortable and confident leaving our dog for a couple days. I so appreciated the updates and photos. Thank you so much.”

“Iman was awesome with my Oreo. She was very accommodating with my schedule. She sent plenty of photos for updates during his stay. I could tell he really enjoyed himself because she got him to get in the pool lol. Iman is a sweetheart. She sent Oreo home with a special treat of homemade food. I would definitely use Iman again.”

“Laura was great with my little Abby. She was flexible with pick up/ drop off times, her home is clean and comfy, took her for a lovely walk to the park nearby and sent update pics. my pup was well taken care of. She even gave her a present to open on xmas and take home! So thoughtful :) will be booking with Laura next time i am out of town.”

“Very professional, called ahead to gather more information and ask questions about my dog specifically, and was very open to any questions I had as a first time user. When I went to pick up my dog, he was excited to see me but also wanted to go up to Kassia and her family one last time before we left. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“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.”

“Highly recommend Monica and Daniel. Very nice people. Kind and respectful to the cats. Even asked if there was more they needed to do! They were nice enough to help us bring in the mail. I was able to leave knowing my cats were well cared for. They vacuumed extra litter tracked in the house and took care of any hairballs. They did everything we asked for. They even uploaded pics of the cats and did a quick update of what they did which I do appreciate. I highly recommend them!! Will hire them again the next time I'm out of town.”

“Gia was an excellent house sitter and pet sitter. I have two older cats, and was a little nervous about leaving them for two weeks. But when I returned, my house was clean, my cats were happy and well fed, and my mail was stacked on the kitchen table. Gia contacted me several times during my vacation, and sent photographs and video of the cats at home. I highly recommend her!”

“David was awesome with our pets! We have a 22 year old kitty that needed some special attention during the visits, and he took great care of her! This is our first time using this service so we were a little nervous but David's communication skills and personality on the first time meeting set those nerves a side! We will be using him in the future for sure!”

She is definitely my go to and I would highly recommend her.”

“It’s so cute to see my Chaseypoo interact with Amia and Joshua, the kids and their pups. They adore her and she comes home happy and tired and ready for a nap.”

“Thaaaannnkkk you Toya! She was wonderful throughout the whole process. Great communication, was able to accommodate only a few days prior of notification, and flexible with the booking! Dropoff was easy, and my dog didn't even bark when she came out (always a good sign of a dog person!). Of course he would have a small incident in her residence, Toya was informative in what happened and was still patient and kind. We would definitely consider using her again.”

“Sheree was a great dog sitter while we were out of town. She kept us informed of everything via texts, pictures, and videos. It was very calming knowing that our pup was in good hands while we were out of town. I highly recommend her services if you need an experienced dog sitter! She is absolutely phenomenal”

“Juliana is amazing. She was able to accommodate on such a last minute booking. Her eager to understand your pet is beyond grateful. She cares to the needs of the your pet in every aspect including teaching and developing. We look forward to holding onto Juliana for future bookings and continuing seeing her grow with her pet care and support. Thanks for everything Juliana, we appreciate you so much.”
“Many many thanks to Joy and Dan! I was anxious leaving Winston with someone I did not know but right away they put me at ease. We had our meet and greet and Winston took to one of their children immediately. During Winston’s stay, Joy and Dan sent photo updates - Winston was having a great time and had settled in well. My only concern was that Winston was having so much fun he wouldn’t want to come back home! I cannot recommend Joy and Dan highly enough and will definitely rebook, pending their availability.”
“Holly and kiddos took such great care of Lacey. I felt so comfortable and confident leaving our dog for a couple days. I so appreciated the updates and photos. Thank you so much.”

About: I have experience with dogs and cats. I currently have a senior Greyhound and would love to assist with caring for your pet while you can’t be there . I work during the week outside the home but stop home every four hours . I am home most evenings and weekends . I have a wonderful park with walking path two blocks away. I would crate your pet if you desire but have no problem with having your dog in my home without the crate ( as long as you know and trust your dog will be safe with mine )

“She was AWESOME to work with! Communities consistently. Sent pictures, vids & updates. Provided my dog a clean, safe place to be, play and sleep. She LISTENED to the details about Taji and acted accordingly. I wlll definitely use her again and HIGHLY RECOMMEND her based on the services we received.”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Family and friends have relied on me for decades to take care of their animals. Growing up on a farm helped give me a lifelong affinity for animals. I’m a teacher who is off all summer. I have plenty of time to fill and would love to look after your animals, either in my home, as a drop in, or just a walk. I have a fenced in backyard, two amazing labs who love other dogs, and a wife and daughter who love dogs as much as I do.
“Very professional, called ahead to gather more information and ask questions about my dog specifically, and was very open to any questions I had as a first time user. When I went to pick up my dog, he was excited to see me but also wanted to go up to Kassia and her family one last time before we left. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“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.”

“Absolutely Wonderful ❣️ Mercedes & her family welcomed my SaxyPoo into their home 🏡 with big hugged & sloppy kisses👄. They kept him active with plenty of walks & play. Mercedes kept me abreast of my baby with a collage of pictures & messages. She is very organized & intentional about the care for each pet while demonstrating her knowledge of the family with homemade treats.”

“Jesseeka was AMAZING! ❤️ This was our first time using Rover so we were unsure what to expect. Our boy Bryant had a great time playing and snuggling. She communicated regularly and sent pictures. He came home happy and with a cute new bandana. We will definitely book again!”

“April is great! Our dog is shy at first but April and her pack made him feel at home. She spent quality one on one time with him and I’m so appreciative of that! She is a phenomenal dog sitter and we’re definitely going to use her pet sitting services again! Thanks for everything April!”

“I really appreciate him and his wife for watching my dog, they saved me because my original sitter had canceled at the last minute. They sent pictures and videos, also communicated with me. I definitely will be booking with them again”

About: Greetings, my name is Will. I’m retired military that has traveled the world meeting many great people and pets. Over the years I’ve trained my dogs to a high-level of obedience. I’m currently working on finishing my professional dog training certification. I volunteer with a dog rescue with transporting dogs as well as training a few, so I have experience with dealing with many types of dogs (puppies to seniors) in a number of different circumstances. Though my main option here is dog walking, I can do drop-ins and house sitting. Im retired so I’m available to walk, play, and snuggle with your pet throughout the day. I’m also available to board your pet. I’d like to meet your pet to see if they would be comfortable with staying with me. I have a fenced yard and a friendly and outgoing Aussie for your pet to play with. I go outside with my animals so rest assured yours will never be alone while under my care. Other availability’s: Dog parks, walking trails, private walks in quiet areas.
“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.”
