“First time boarding my puppy and had to book last minute. Briana & Isaiah responded quickly and made the experience easy and stress free. I could tell quickly that was Benny in great hands! When I picked him up he had the best send off, they truly care. Will definitely book again.”
“Working with Megan and Jacob was a pleasure! Cooper looked like he was having a wonderful time in all the pictures they sent. Dunkin’ and the other buddies were great companions while he was there, too.”
“Gisel and her family took great care of my girl Kola. Kola had a case of severely itchy paws pop up the day before we were set to leave town. I was able to get some meds from the vet before we left. I let Gisel know what was going on with Kola, as she was licking and chewing her paws and they were very red. I kept socks on her paws and gave her Benadryl in between the meds from the vet. Gisel also kept this up for the four days Kola stayed with her family. I was so thankful and appreciative of the extra care Gisel and her family gave Kola. Kola’s itchy paws popped up so last minute and Gisel assured me she would take great care of her and she did just that! I would definitely use Gisel again for Kola!”
“Jill and Chad and their boys were great with Piper. I could tell from the minute we had our meet and greet they were a great family and she seemed to fit right in. I got updates and pictures. She had a great time and I know they gave her lots of attention. I felt perfectly comfortable with her staying with them. I would absolutely use them again!!! Great people!!!🐶”
“Okay first let me just say how nervous I was leading up to dropping of my baby boy (lol). Paris answered my 1,000 questions leading up to the drop off. I appreciated that. So the day of drop of was "effortless" she focused just on Jax to give him time to "explore", after that she updated me often with pictures and let's just say " NOT SURE IF THIS DUDE MISSED HIS MOMMA" as much as I missed him. Once I knew he was comfortable and slept all night in his crate, I knew he was good. I would 100% book with Paris AGAIN, AGAIN, and AGAIN!!”
“Tarina is always there whenever we need a place for our dogs. She is trustworthy, loving and always takes the best care of them. My dog is always exhausted when coming home from a stay because he has so much fun! So happy we have her whenever needed.”
“If I could pack them up and move them with me to new house I would. Jenn and her husband were great very flexible were happy to add two more days of care when our plans changed. Jenn sent pictures everyday with updates. Tahoe was also clean and brushed when I picked him up and a happy pup.if I was still in area would definately use again”

“I am so grateful for Ela! My cat loves when she comes to visit, play with him, and spend time together. She intentionally built a relationship with him on the first visit and it shows, and he is a very discerning cat who won’t open up to just anyone! I appreciate Ela’s updates and pictures. She is great with feeding and cleaning the box too. It gives me so much peace of mind to know he is well cared for while I am away.”

It was clear he took excellent care of them. When I got home, both cats were relaxed, happy, and clearly well looked after. That peace of mind means everything to me when traveling. His check-in cards always made my day, and he sent some fantastic photos that reassured me they were doing great. I really appreciated the thoughtful updates and attention to detail.

“Claire was great with our two cats! She sent detailed updates everyday and even took the time to play with them while we were away. I recommend her if you are looking for someone to take great care of your cats!”
“Stephanie was very punctual, professional, and left detailed notes after every visit so I always had the peace of mind while out of town. She even let me know when the cats spilled some water from their bowl and tidied up the eating space! Thanks for going above and beyond - I certainly know who to trust with my cats in the future.”

I will personally make sure your pet is fed, played with, walked, loved, happy, and well cared for.

“I’m deeply grateful to Tania for taking such loving care of my cat, Pipi. Tania followed every instruction with care and attention, and her daily updates—filled with sweet photos—brought me so much comfort while I was away. She was also always responsive, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. I wholeheartedly recommend her for her services!”
About: Hi! My name is MaKenzi and I have had pets as long as I can remember, I grew up with two pitbulls rescues, two smaller dogs, and an older cat that I assumed most of the care for as both parents worked full time jobs. Taking care of multiple animals at one time requires a lot of energy and the ability to organize the things they need well but I learned very quickly! Since I have lived on my own I have helped friends and coworkers with taking care of their beloved fur babies while they’re on vacation or just need an extra hand with their pets. In the last year I have rescued my own kitten and I have absolutely spoiled her with all of the patience, love, affection, and extra care that her heart could desire.
“Damien took excellent care of my kitties while I was away. He was thorough, followed all of my care instructions, and sent detailed updates with plenty of photos, which gave me real peace of mind. He was respectful of my home, professional, and a pleasure to work with. My senior kitty absolutely loved him, and he took wonderful care of her as well. I wouldn't hesitate to book with him again.”
“Allison did a great job caring for my cat, Babe. The day I was to leave town babe had to go to a special vet appointment where she got prescribed liquid medication. Allison handled administering that medication to her for part of the week with great care and did a great job doing it. She was very thorough in communicating with me and sending me pictures of Babe enjoying her visits. She was great.”

“Our Pup had a great time at Shanon's. He enjoyed the company of her older dogs. Her backyard is fenced, huge, and safe. Very good at communication, and we received updates with pictures. Shanon listened to us on our specific instructions and followed them. She always responded timely to our texts. Fed the pup on time and also arranged a cozy bed for him. We recommend her and would definitely book again when in the area.”
“Tyler was great, our dog is 4 months old high energy pup who hasn’t met other dog yet. Tyler was comforted with his dogs being the first. He sent us a video of the dogs play and having a great time. We were nervous leaving him with someone for the first time but after meeting Tyler we were sure he was a perfect choice. We will definitely call on him again.”

About: What sets me apart is my six years of experience caring for my rescue dog, who is sensitive and shy. This has taught me patience, gentle handling, and how to create a calm environment tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I’m especially good at working with dogs that require extra reassurance and care. Working part-time from home allows me to keep a flexible routine for the pets I care for. I’m home most of the day, so I can follow their schedule closely — from walks and feeding times to playtime and rest — making sure they always feel safe and loved. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets are always supervised, have access to fresh water, and enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely and make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times.
About: Welcome to my home! All dogs must be house trained, friendly, and up to date on their vaccinations, flea, and tick prevention. I also ask that pets are well-behaved and comfortable around people and other animals. I have a loving, pet-friendly home having over 15 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds from playful puppies and energetic big dogs to senior pets. For me, pets are family, and I treat every furry guest who stays as one of my own. The home is warm, clean, and welcoming, with plenty of room for play and relaxation. I have a safe outdoor space perfect for walks, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, belly rubs, or quiet cuddle time, I make sure they get the right mix of activity, affection, and space. I offer daily walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays with plenty of love, attention, and care. I also handle feeding routines, basic training reinforcement, and medication if needed. Since I work from home, there’s always someone around to provide companionship and ensure your pet is never left alone for long. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate weekday and weekend stays with ease. Pets who come into my home become part of the family, surrounded by kindness, attention, and a whole lot of love. I work from home so can ensure pets are fed, loved, bathed if necessary, and walked accordingly. I walk twice a day, morning and evening. Your pet’s safety and comfort are top priorities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, a safe space where every animal feels cared for and secure. I have a friendly standard poodle who roams freely on the main level and basement, providing gentle company for visiting pets. I maintain a structured environment with eyes on pets at all times to ensure their well-being. If your pet is crate trained or prefers resting in their own space, please bring their crate so they can feel comfortable and at ease during their stay. I ask that all visiting pets are house trained, friendly, and up to date on vaccinations, flea, and tick prevention. Please also bring your pet’s bed, toys, and comfort items to help them feel at home. My goal is to create a peaceful, safe environment where your pet can relax, play, and feel loved throughout their stay
About: Certified Dog Trainer & Professional Pet Spoiler I’ve been caring for animals professionally for over 10 years—basically, I’m the Mary Poppins of pets (minus the umbrella, plus a lot more treats). I work remotely, which means I have plenty of time to shower your furry, feathery, or finned friends with attention while you’re away. I share my life with my own dog, Roux, who would need to join me for overnight house sitting—she’s well-mannered, charming, and believes she’s the CEO of the operation. Specialties include: • Raising & training puppies (basic commands, potty, & crate training) • Senior pet care • Dogs with anxiety • Administering medications • Cat care (yes, even the sassy ones) • Rodent care (mice, guinea pigs, bunnies—you name it) • Basic fish tank maintenance (I’ve never lost a guppy on my watch) I work remotely which gives me some flexibility to care for your pup. I prefer overnight stays at the clients home with the ability to come home to work during the day but may be able to bring my work to you. I care for my clients pets exactly the same as their owner and better! I love them like my own. An in home pet sitter is a great way to keep your pets routine so they are less stressed while you are away.

“I had something come up & I needed help with getting my dog walked on very short notice & with all her amazing reviews I figured the likelihood of getting Ela’s help so last minute was really slim, but lucky me she answered my request in minutes & generously came right away to help - ON A HOLIDAY, no less. You can tell right away upon meeting her that Ela is completely at ease with dogs & the same in return. & Even though our interaction tonight was brief it was clearly evident how professional Ela is & how serious she is about providing great care. My pup was super comfortable & acted as if she walked her everyday at first greeting & she came home well excercised & very happy. I immediately rebooked with Ela for another walk & I really look forward to working with her in the future... & I’m sure my pup will too! THANK YOU SO MUCH ELA!?”
“Jordan was amazing! She was so flexible, communicative, and was able to help when unexpected things came up. She gave love and care to all our animals and we were super grateful to her! Would absolutely use her again & recommend to friends/family!”

About: I’m a mental health therapist and lifelong animal lover, so I understand how important peace of mind is when you’re away from your pets. I grew up around animals—my mom ran her own professional pet sitting business, and I learned from her experience with the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets—cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, and more—and have been trusted with their care since I was a teen. I’m comfortable and experienced with medicating pets when needed, always following your instructions carefully. As a pet parent myself, with my cat Luna at home, I know how much your pets mean. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and sizes—young or old, big or small—and treat every pet like part of my family. Because when your pet is happy, you are happy! I work part-time as a mental health therapist, which gives me a lot of flexibility and allows me to stay local. Pet care is a meaningful way for me to care for others while also taking care of myself, so I’m truly present and intentional in the time I spend with your pets. I love creating consistent routines whenever possible—it helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. That means plenty of attention, play, and cuddles (always on their terms), along with keeping up with their regular feeding and routines.

I keep a close eye on their health and can provide medication support when needed, always following your instructions and your vet’s orders carefully.
