“Alivia did a wonderful job with our dog Willow. She let Willow outside to play with her family’s own dog, and other dogs she was boarding. She kept in touch with us by sending pictures, videos, etc. I will definitely use her services again.”


“This was our first time leaving the dogs with a sitter so we were really nervous. Lynana and her family took great care of them and made sure the dogs got settled in. Drop off and pick was extremely easy and she was very flexible. We definitely use her again.”

“Such a great feeling to be able to travel and know my girl is loved and safe. Amanda and her family are excellent sitters, great communicators, and go the extra mile to reassure you your pet is being well cared for. Highly recommend.”

“Raechel was awesome! She sent me plenty of pictures, and kept me informed on how Roscoe was doing all weekend. Roscoe seemed to have a great time! He got along great with her dogs, and he seemed totally comfortable and relaxed with her. She will definitely be my go-to when we need someone to watch Roscoe in the future!”

“Anjelica did great with my shy and nervous Sheba. By pick Sheba was seeking attention and pets from her and her husband, which to me means she felt totally comfortable in the facility. The kennels were comfy enough for Sheba to want to go in there and sleep every night. Plus the indoor play area was great. Definitely will rebook when we have to travel again.”

About: I have watched beloved family pets for many friends and family during my life time. Being an animal lover myself, I know that your pets are family and I make sure to treat them as such! Growing up with family dogs and cats, and currently our funky boxer dog Rufus, I know what it takes to be a successful animal sitter and how much love they need. I work a full time job, from 9-4:30 pm Monday-Friday with the exception of one remote day on Wednesdays. Most pets are used to this schedule. I will ensure they will have potty breaks first thing in the morning, during my lunch break at 1, and then once I return to the home at 5. And then several throughout the evening and before bed. Daytime/evening care only - no overnight stays. I am will to reconsider if you have a spare bedroom and you do not expect your pet to sleep in the bed or room with me. I will care for your pet in the environment they feel the safest in… your home. By allowing your animal to remain at home, it eases their stress and anxiety and gives them a comforting feel of familiarity. No need to pack up enough food and treats for the week. I will be happy to follow your thorough instructions on how to care for your pet.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand that every pet deserves patience, kindness, and plenty of attention. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m reliable, responsible, and committed to following your pet’s routine and any special instructions you provide. I know every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and loved. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I’m happy to help with puppies who need extra patience, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace and additional care. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine alongside my part-time job.

During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed, avoid unsafe situations, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. In your home, I’ll treat your property with respect, keep everything tidy, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“And it was great! She took care of a dog a cat and a bunny. Everyone was healthy and happy upon our return. She even pointed out other things such as the cloudiness of our pool because the pool service had not shown up. We will book with her again.”

About: I bathe the dogs, water/feed, play/go on walk or running, take them outside to use the bathroom after they get done eating there supper. If they need medicine before or after eating there meal, I can do that because I had to do it with my German Shepherd once. Animals give me pride, joy, and make me feel special inside and stress is gone. Animals should be treated like a family member in your home. Someone will always be home that you meet during the meet n greet to ensure your animals are taken care of. It fits my schedule Tuesday through Friday I work 7:30am to 2pm sometimes done before that. Daughters are at school during the day. I will make sure that fences are shut, doors are shut as well as making sure theres no holes in the fences for them to squeeze through.

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes for neighbors, friends, and family while they were away for days at a time. I really enjoy making pets feel comfortable and cared for through walks, feeding, playtime, and attention, and I’ve also helped with daycare and grooming pick-ups and drop-offs. I’m currently not working, so I have a very open and flexible schedule to provide pet care full-time. I don’t have children or pets of my own right now, which allows me to dedicate my full attention and care to the pets I’m watching. I’m available for a variety of needs, including walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I do not have a fenced-in yard, and I live in a quiet private home/villa in a safe neighborhood. All outdoor time is always supervised and on leash to ensure pets are safe at all times. I provide a calm, structured environment and closely follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions from owners so they feel comfortable and cared for like home. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with consistent attention, patience, and care throughout their stay.
