“Mickey and his family are awesome! They treat my my fur baby as if she was theirs. Love getting pictures and videos during her visits. The kennel will now only be used as my “back up” place. Highly recommend!”
“We were away for 6 days, and Rebeca did an incredible job taking care of our puppy, Kobe! From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and truly caring. She gave us updates and made sure Kobe was well-loved and comfortable while we were gone. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. We came home to a happy, healthy pup, and we’re so grateful for her care. Highly recommend Rebeca—she’s amazing!”
“Garrett and Ana were wonderful! Kylo thinks so too! We appreciated their communication while he was with them. It gave us peace of mind that he was fine and relaxed. We also appreciated their time to acquaint him with their own dog and other boarders. We'd definitely use them again!”
“This was our first time boarding our dog. We appreciated Megan's personality and her warm family. Diesel seemed super happy in every photo. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Seyla did an outstanding job caring for Oakyley during his stay. He took Oak on multiple daily hikes with other dogs through different parks in the area, and he kept him hydrated and cool on the hot days. Seyla provided a continuous stream of updates throughout the day about what they were up to and his feeding regimen. Seyla took very good care of our dog and made Oak part of his family for three weeks. If you are looking for someone to care for your family pet and not have to worry about what's happening, look no further! Highly recommended.”
“Thank you, Marcela, for taking such good care of Cooper this weekend. We really appreciate your flexibility, kindness, and compassion. We look forward to seeing you again soon and know that Cooper does too!”
“I am so pleased I was able to found boarding for my doggie Jojo with Chelsea. I was constantly kept informed by way of pictures and notes of how he was doing. My pet appeared to feel comfortable and at home. In my opinion from the updates it was due to the care and love shown to him. I’m truly grateful; this was the longest period I was away from him. I will definitely use the service in the future based on opportunity and or availability. Thank you Chelsea & family”
“Carlos took fantastic care of our dog Eddie! He was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates throughout Eddie's stay and also took Eddie on several walks a day. He really took great care of Eddie and it was really the best Rover stay Eddie has had yet! I could tell Eddie had a great time going on walks, playing with Carlos's dogs and I will definitely have Carlos watch him again in the future!”
“Heather was very accommodating in the drop off time and pickup time, especially during the busy Christmas weekend. She sent us regular photos and replied quickly to messages.”
“Jona is an absolute gem! I had to leave town last-minute for work, and she took in my pup with such kindness, patience, and care. She kept me updated regularly with photos, thoughtful messages, and insights about how he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond in every way. I was in a rush the day I dropped him off (and my little monster decided to snatch his leash right before we left), so I had to leave him without one. Jona didn’t miss a beat - she provided a sturdy leash and handled everything so calmly and generously. That kind of support meant a lot to me. She treated him like family; taking him on walks, helping reinforce his training, and making sure he stayed comfortable in the summer heat. You can tell she truly loves what she does. Her home is a safe, caring space, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. If you're looking for someone who will treat your fur baby with real love and attention, Jona is the one. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”
“Excellent! Sabine was very easy to work with and gave multiple updates each day. Our little pup ate well there and was happy when she came back home, which are all signs that her care was very good. Would highly recommend.”
“I highly recommend Jim K. My puppy Dexter appeared to have a great overnight stay. Jim kept me updated about how Dexter was adjusting via text and by sending me pictures throughout his stay. I would highly recommend using Jim and I look forward to booking with him again in the future!”
“Mary watched my two dogs a total of four times for three days at a time, and I waited till the last visit to write a review. Mary is absolutely awesome. My youngest can be a handful at times, but Mary is extremely patient, caring, and truly just loves dogs. I received a message from Mary on the second visit that my dog threw up and was not feeling good. She asks me if she can boil chicken breast and rice for him to have something easier on the stomach. This just made me feel good about leaving them in her care and that she had his best interest. She truly wants the best for them. She is the first person my dog has ever ran up to invitingly and was not timid of. I will definitely be going back to Mary if I’m in need of a good dog sitter.”
“Jordyn took wonderful care of our senior dog while we were away. She sent frequent updates with photos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog has mobility challenges and needs a little extra help, and Jordyn was incredibly patient, attentive, and caring. It was obvious she treated her with kindness and affection. Our favorite update was that she was “cuddling Mr. Wolf!” When we picked her up, she came home happy, calm, and relaxed, which is the best indication of the care she received. We would absolutely trust Jordyn with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, dependable sitter.”
“Rosalina was awesome. I had someone cancel on me and she was able to accept the job very last minute. She sent so many pictures each day. I would definitely recommend and use her services again.”
“This was a short boarding experience of only 2 nights but everything went well. Our dog came back happy and healthy and we were happy with the updates and pictures. It felt nice to leave him with a friendly happy family.”
“My dog Batman had a wonderful stay with Vanessa and Geoffrey. They have a great set up and were very attentive and loving towards my dog. I would definitely recommend them to anyone and will be booking again in the future!”

“Nicole was an amazing cat sitter! She was incredibly loving, mindful, and attentive while caring for our cat. Knowing our cat was in such caring hands gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Nicole was also very flexible and easy to work with, which we truly appreciated. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”
“Kady went above and beyond to take excellent care of my cats. She was meticulous, thorough, very caring, and definitely paid attention to the instructions. I know my cats were provided affection and attention and she sent multiple photos and detailed messages about her visits. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her. Such a sweet young lady who obviously loves animals.”

“Caitlyn did a wonderful job! She came before my trip to need Ophelia and learn what needed to be done and how to care for her. She showed up each evening on time and sent pictures , brought in package for me and let me know if anything was out of the norm! I highly recommend and will have her in the future!”

“Jessica did such a great job doing drop ins for my cat. She was great with communication and my cat immediately took to her. I’d definitely recommend her services and look forward to booking with her again in the future.”
“That is a great addition—it shows she really understands different cat personalities, from the "spicy" ones who hate grooming to the shy ones. Here is the updated review with those details included: ### Review for Liz **Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** Liz provided incredible care for my three cats while I was away. It is always a bit stressful leaving a multi-cat household, but Liz handled everything with total professionalism and genuine care. She stayed on top of their specific needs, including: * **Medication & Maintenance:** She reliably administered medicine and kept the litter boxes spotless. Food and water were always fresh and topped off. * **Frank:** I loved the updates about her playing with him; she made sure he got plenty of exercise with his favorite laser toy! * **Rudy:** She even managed to give Rudy a good brushing—something he usually hates when I do it! She clearly has a magic touch. * **Ryan:** For my hider, Ryan, Liz took the time to find her every day just to lay eyes on her and make sure she was safe and doing okay. It’s clear Liz truly loves animals and respects their individual boundaries. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and a tidy home. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, patient sitter!”
About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and understand that each one has a unique personality and comfort level. I’m patient and attentive, especially with shy or independent cats, and I take time to build trust at their pace. I’m currently studying veterinary medicine, which helps me better understand feline health, behavior, and overall well-being. I’m comfortable handling feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, and giving cats the calm, quiet environment they need to feel safe. Whether your cat is playful or prefers space, I adapt to their needs and make sure they are comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while you’re away. I can administer medications if needed and provide updates and photos after each visit.

“Hannah was exceptional. She took wonderful care of our cat while we were gone. She was easy to work with, communicated promptly and was super friendly. She also went WAY above and beyond. I left a critical item at home. She located it and overnighted it to me. I don’t know what I would have done without her.”
“Aliyah was a treasure. She was ready to go from booking. Blue adapted well to her and enjoyed her special cuddles!! She had great communication and was very accommodating!! We will definitely use her again!”

About: I do not have professional experience with cats, but I have taken care of a buddy when his mom (a friend of my mother) went to travel to visit her son. I used to feed him, and stay at night so he would not feel lonely With cats, you need to let them know you first, and then you can get to know them.
“It took a minute but she is getting use to dealing with cats. I just rescued them so was hard for me to tell her their habits. She has learned their ways and adjusted her comings and goings. She has sent me great pics, and I am learning their ways by listening to what she sees. Appreciate her assistance with my boys.”
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs my entire life, I also have a lot of experience handling and taking care of large breed dogs like pitbulls and dogo argentinos.

I aim to create a stress free and fun environment for everyone.

“Mickey is amazing with dogs. He knows exactly what he is talking about and it is clear that he just has our Dexter’s best interest at heart while he is in his care. So happy we found someone that matches our needs so well!”
“My first time using Rover and can’t say that I wasn’t nervous. I spoke to Seyla the night before my drop off and he assured me that Ace was in good hands. And that he was. He communicated with me all day with videos and pictures of Ace mingling with the other dogs and his daily walks he took. The pick up and drop was very smooth. Ace was accepted and enjoyed his day with Seyla and his wife. Got him home and was ready for bed. I would definitely recommend Sehla to anyone and will for sure will be using his service again.”
“This our first puppy and our first time being away from our sweet girl. Jesus kept us updated throughout her entire stay with messages, videos and pictures. We could tell that our little one felt so comfortable, happy and most of all well cared for.”
About: I can accommodate your pets needs. My home is ideally suited for pets–a spacious, fully-fenced backyard for dogs to run around safely, I will maintain a calming presence with your dog. Walking/ running, fetch the ball are some outdoor activities to strengthen the bond with your dog. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a dog and have kept dogs for others. I take our dog out for walks and play-time with other dogs in the neighborhood . Diesel is very friendly, energetic and loving. My house has a large fenced yard. It’s not my practice to crate dogs. However, I can crate your dog if requested. I provide dog beds and allow dogs to move about freely. No one else will be assisting me with caring for your dog.
“Alexander was FANTASTIC! He waited outside to pick us up so I could get to work on time. He was very respectful and Cocoa had a blast! He kept us informed the whome day with what was going on with her and posted pics so we could check in on her which gives us peace of mind. We need him permanently!!”
“Thank you so much for looking after my Chewy! He came back very happy and Well taken care off! I got 2 pictures of how he was doing and was told how he was when I came to pick him up. Would definitely rebook again whenever I get the chance!”
“Azaria is amazing with Ziggy! Wonderful communication to schedule and throughout the day, and very attuned to details. Ziggy seemed to really connect well with Azaria too, which makes me happy. Will definitely book again!”

About: Hi, I’m Nicole! I am a trustworthy professional who loves animals. I understand the dedication and commitment required to look after your pet. I know that each pet has their own personality and style and I will be sure to adapt to exactly what your pet needs and wants. I’ve been petting sitting since 2012. During my visits I take pride in walking, feeding, and providing endless affection to your pet. I also welcome your furry friends into my home. Your dog or cat will feel right at home and are guaranteed to be the main spotlight.
About: I offer a premium boarding experience because I believe every dog deserves to be treated like family, not inventory. I strictly limit my capacity to one or two dogs to ensure they get the attention and peace of mind they need. My home is a real home, not a kennel. I currently care for Violet, a Belgian Malinois service dog, and Scarlet, a Maine Coon kitten. My experience goes far beyond that, too. My journey has taken me from volunteering with A Forever Home Dog Rescue to a wildlife rescue in Virginia, and now to raising neonatal kittens from just a few hours old. I have a unique skill set for managing a wide range of animals—from fragile newborns to high-energy working dogs—in a calm, household setting. While you might find cheaper options elsewhere ($30–$40/day), those often involve high-volume, kennel-style setups with multiple dogs in separate rooms. My $60/day rate reflects the exclusive, one-on-one care and quiet environment you get here. You aren't paying for a bed in a facility; you're paying for a home where your dog is an honored guest. Pet Care is Family Life, Not a Job My home operates on a calm, consistent routine designed to make every guest feel safe and settled. As a remote worker with a quiet home, I am present and available throughout the day. Morning: We start with a gentle wake-up, a potty break, and breakfast. Daytime: While I work, your pet is right beside me—a quiet companion in a comfy dog bed or in a safe play area. I check in frequently for water, a quick snack, or a cuddle. Afternoon: We have dedicated time for one-on-one play, mental stimulation, or a relaxing walk (weather permitting). Evening: We wind down together, often with quiet time before bed. Because I host only one or two guests, this routine is tailored to your pet's needs, not a generic schedule for a group. There are no crowded kennel hours or constant noise; just a steady, loving presence. My home is a safe, controlled environment where safety is my top priority. Because I treat every pet as family, I maintain strict protocols to ensure their well-being. Supervision: I am home full-time and provide constant supervision. There is no "cage time" or unsupervised roaming. Secure Environment: My home is pet-proofed. I do not leave pets unattended in crates for long periods; they are integrated into family life. Emergency Preparedness: I have an SUV ready for immediate transport to the vet. I carry a fully stocked pet first-aid kit and have a clear emergency action plan for every guest. Background Checks: I have passed a basic background check and maintain a 100% response rate, ensuring reliability and trust. I also maintain an active government clearance. Health & Hygiene: I follow strict cleaning protocols, especially given my experience with neonatal kittens (who are highly susceptible to illness). I isolate new guests if needed and monitor health closely.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I enjoy taking care of animals, spending time with them. I’m willing to work with your puppies or senior dogs providing good care. I do work part-time and would love to spend my free time taking care of your babies whether that’s walking them, playing with them or simply giving them attention. And making sure they are well cared for! I have a fenced and spacious yard. My home is dog-friendly, clean and safe. I’ll keep you updated on your fur baby with photos, videos and messages.
“Your pup will have a great time at Ms Jessica's! She is a pleasure to work with - clear, communicative, prompt and provides a fun and enriching time for the dogs in her care. My dog has GRRRREAT time when stays with her! He comes home happy and tired each time.”
“Kady was great with Thor. I appreciate her being available with a last minute request. She’s very flexible and reliable. I also appreciated the updates and pics. We’ll be back again!”
“My dog and I just moved to a new area so I was anxious about finding someone to watch him while we get settled. Jennifer and Justin were so kind and sent me plenty of photos throughout the day. They even very kindly washed his bowl after he ate his food. My dog had an amazing time and I would trust them to watch him again”
“Jessica has become our go to for Doggie Day Care. Our dog Missy loves her and so do we. She is an absolute pleasure to work with. She takes wonderful care of our little fur baby. We highly recommend!!!”

About: Im available all the time and have a lot of time with my own dog and I have a cat too. I’ve taken care of a senior dog I adopted and trained my current dog pretty well. My day is open. The only thing that’s ever on my calendar is getting my daughters to school. Other than that, I’m usually home. I have a fenced yard and my dog is really friendly. The yard is on the smaller side but still has plenty of places to run around.
“Melissa was great. My dog doesn’t always walk well for new people and he took to her right away. She took the time to come by for a meet and greet and we were really impressed!”
“Aliyah is very dependable, and responds to my requests in a very timely matter! She has no problems with doing what you ask of her. Aliyah continues to be a great walker for my dog and he loves her!”
“We are so happy to have found Alexis for the weekend. She was very responsive and professional. She gave us peace of mind by keeping us updated with pictures of their walks. She was able to accommodate us last minute so we are thankful. My dogs seemed to have enjoyed being with her. Johnny and Lionel said thank you for the walks!!!”
About: I've had dogs in my life ever since I could walk! I have always loved furry friends and the joy that they bring. I've personally owned bully breeds, labradors/labradoodles, and shelties. I have cared for dogs as large as Mastiffs and as small as Yorkies. I currently own a friendly, loving, labradoodles named Beau! I'm currently a stay at home dog mama. My schedule is very flexible! I can help with walks, check ins, boarding in my home, and daycare in my home. I have 3 children ages 10,9,7 who share my love for furry friends. I have a labradoodle named Beau who is very friendly, playful and would be thrilled for some playmates!
About: My husband and I are blessed to have a totally fenced in home with over three acres. I decided to use this blessing to bless dogs to come and run and play. Dogs were meant to run and roam not be tied up. I so enjoy being outdoors and being around dogs. I have always had dogs even growing up with my family. My father had a heart for animals and I believe that is where my love has come from. I have three dogs of my own and each one has a very special spirit about them. In my spare time, I enjoy going to the rescues and shelters walking the dogs there. I also take rescue puppies into our home and foster them until they are adopted into a loving family. My husband and I work together and we have plenty of time to give special attention to your fur baby. We believe in exercising your pet whether by means of walking, playing with their favorite toy, sitting on the porch just hanging out and also then giving the proper rest as needed. My yard is fenced in for protected play time. While inside your pet will be allowed to be a part of household for special time and then I have a separate area where your pet will be allowed to have quite time and rest in a crate or in a area without a crate as needed.

About: I've been caring for animals for many years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I have experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications, reinforcing routines, and providing plenty of attention and exercise. Whether your pet loves long walks and adventures or prefers quiet companionship and cuddles, I adapt to their individual needs and personality. I believe pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and respect I would want for my own. I also understand the importance of communication and provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. I currently work fully remote so have highly flexible hours allowing me to give your pet the attention they deserve. Will schedule fully around you and your pets needs Creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet is my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and special needs so they receive consistent care and attention while their owners are away. I maintain a clean and secure environment, follow all feeding and medication instructions carefully, and ensure pets are supervised during walks and outdoor activities. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for. As a responsible and dependable caregiver, I understand the trust involved in leaving a beloved pet with someone else. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and genuine affection—so both pets and their owners can feel completely at ease.
About: Originally from North Italy I have hands-on experience working with dogs through my role as a K9 Search and Rescue Coordinator in Germany before moving here not long ago, where I trained and handled dogs in obedience, tracking, and real-world scenarios. This experience taught me how to stay calm, patient, and attentive while ensuring each dog’s safety and well-being. I’m currently studying Veterinary Medicine, which allows me to better understand animal health, behavior, and care. With over 18 years of experience in customer service and working with people, I bring strong communication, reliability, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. I treat every dog like family and always follow their routine closely to make them feel safe and comfortable. I’m also fluent in English, Spanish, Italian, and French, making communication easy for a wide range of pet parents. I offer reliable weekday availability focused on dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m building pet care as my full-time focus, which allows me to provide consistent, on-time care Monday through Friday. I’m available for daily walks, feeding visits, and check-ins, and I’m happy to maintain your pet’s routine while you’re at work or away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. With my experience in K9 search and rescue and my ongoing studies in veterinary medicine, I’m trained to stay calm, attentive, and responsive in any situation. I understand animal behavior and how to provide safe, structured, and stress-free care in your home. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions. During walks and visits, I make sure pets get the right balance of exercise, attention, and care. My goal is to keep your pet happy and give you peace of mind while you’re away. I provide updates and photos after each visit so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: Hi, I'm Val! I'm a lifelong animal lover with decades of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes (we were definitely a pet-crazy family!). My sister is a former vet tech (I have learned so much from her and she is still my #1 resource when I have to "triage" anything non-emergent), and I grew up surrounded by animals, so pet care has always felt like second nature to me. I’ve cared for senior pets, administered medications, supported animals with special needs, even raised premature puppies! I’m very attuned to the unique rhythms and cues of each animal I meet. I’m gentle, playful, and intuitive, matching energy levels and always paying attention to what a pet needs in the moment. Whether that means slow movements and soft energy or zoomies and tug-of-war, I show up in a way that helps your pet feel safe, respected, and loved. I also deeply value communication with pet parents. I’ll always ask lots of questions to understand your preferences, routines, and what makes your pet feel their best. You can count on regular photo and written updates during our time together! I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to work with pets who may require more attention on walks together due to triggers, so long as there’s no bite history and we’ve had a proper meet & greet to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. :) I'm looking forward to meeting your fur fam! I work remotely and have a flexible and self-structured schedule, so I’m thankfully able to build my days intentionally around the things that matter, including pet care! I space out my client sessions to make room for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with the animals I care for. When caring for pets in their home, I’m respectful of their space and routines, and always take the time to understand what helps them feel safe and comfortable. I read behavior cues, match energy levels, and adjust my approach, whether that means calm and slow or playful and high-energy. I ask detailed questions up front so I can follow your preferences closely, and I always keep you updated with photos and notes. Your pet’s well-being and emotional safety are my top priorities.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, both as a pet owner and professionally. I have hands-on experience working with dogs of all different personalities, energy levels, and needs, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. My professional experience includes dog training and bathing/grooming, and I am also accredited through PetSmart while currently working toward becoming a certified groomer. This ongoing training continues to strengthen my understanding of canine behavior, body language, handling techniques, and how to keep dogs comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Whether your dog needs a walk, some extra exercise and attention, or another type of care, I’m happy to tailor my approach to their individual personality and routine. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. My goal is for every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. I currently work part-time as a professional dog bather, typically 15–20 hours per week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide pet care around my work schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and other services throughout the week, and I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s routine. Because my work is already centered around caring for dogs, I’m comfortable working with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll care for your dogs and cats in the comfort of their own home, keeping their routines as consistent as possible and treating your space with the same respect I would my own. For walks, I’ll stay in familiar local areas and use safe, vetted trails that are appropriate for your dog’s needs and energy level. I have professional experience handling and caring for dogs, including bathing and training, so I’m comfortable paying attention to body language, behavior, and potential safety concerns. I’ll always follow your instructions, communicate with you throughout the stay, and make sure your pet receives attentive, dependable care while you’re away.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and currently my family has a golden retriever since 2019 and helped train and take care of him all these years. I genuinely love dogs and think they should be treated well and taken care of and given love as they always give us love and affection. I am a Kindergarten teacher Monday to Friday, so late afternoons, evenings and weekends work for me either or both for walks or dog sitting. I care for pets in a home like they are my own. I am respectful to the instructions left to me on how to be with them, as well as that they should be treated kindly. The house I rent does not allow pets, so I could only do clients houses for dog sitting
About: I’ve grown up with multiple dog breeds my whole life. I’ve also owned cats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I have 2+ years of experience with taking care of bearded dragons and I’ve had a couple visits with snakes, specifically corn snakes. I work with any and all dogs/cats. I also like to send pics/videos of the pets to their owners daily for that reassurance that their fur baby is taken care of with the upmost care! I’m currently a full-time college student. I’m available any day and any time of the week. I’m usually available last minute as well and around holidays if needed. I currently have 4 dogs; 3 Yorkies and 1 Boarder Collie mix. They’re set on a twice per day feeding and their internal clock is set to those times. If I were to be in a clients home, I would do my best to ensure the animal stays in their routine and their feeding/medication is on schedule. They’d get plenty of play times and unlimited cuddles!
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs my entire life, I also have a lot of experience handling and taking care of large breed dogs like pitbulls and dogo argentinos. I'm a college student with lots of free time and I would love to spend time with your pets and love them like mine. I can walk, feed, bathe and mostly love all kinds of dogs and cats and this is like a dream job to me. Taking care of animals will be my mainly routine since I'm on break from college. I will put all my time and care into making sure your fur babies are taken care of. I live in an apartment complex that has a dog park and my nice quiet neighborhood is walking distance from a playground and a high school track & field. I mostly do this for fun and supplemental income on my free time so I am flexible on cost and cancellation. Your pets' safety and happiness are paramount. I aim to create a stress free and fun environment for everyone.

“Mickey and his family are awesome! They treat my my fur baby as if she was theirs. Love getting pictures and videos during her visits. The kennel will now only be used as my “back up” place. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time boarding our dog. We appreciated Megan's personality and her warm family. Diesel seemed super happy in every photo. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Seyla did an outstanding job caring for Oakyley during his stay. He took Oak on multiple daily hikes with other dogs through different parks in the area, and he kept him hydrated and cool on the hot days. Seyla provided a continuous stream of updates throughout the day about what they were up to and his feeding regimen. Seyla took very good care of our dog and made Oak part of his family for three weeks. If you are looking for someone to care for your family pet and not have to worry about what's happening, look no further! Highly recommended.”
“Heather was very accommodating in the drop off time and pickup time, especially during the busy Christmas weekend. She sent us regular photos and replied quickly to messages.”
“I highly recommend Jim K. My puppy Dexter appeared to have a great overnight stay. Jim kept me updated about how Dexter was adjusting via text and by sending me pictures throughout his stay. I would highly recommend using Jim and I look forward to booking with him again in the future!”
“Mary watched my two dogs a total of four times for three days at a time, and I waited till the last visit to write a review. Mary is absolutely awesome. My youngest can be a handful at times, but Mary is extremely patient, caring, and truly just loves dogs. I received a message from Mary on the second visit that my dog threw up and was not feeling good. She asks me if she can boil chicken breast and rice for him to have something easier on the stomach. This just made me feel good about leaving them in her care and that she had his best interest. She truly wants the best for them. She is the first person my dog has ever ran up to invitingly and was not timid of. I will definitely be going back to Mary if I’m in need of a good dog sitter.”
“Jordyn took wonderful care of our senior dog while we were away. She sent frequent updates with photos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog has mobility challenges and needs a little extra help, and Jordyn was incredibly patient, attentive, and caring. It was obvious she treated her with kindness and affection. Our favorite update was that she was “cuddling Mr. Wolf!” When we picked her up, she came home happy, calm, and relaxed, which is the best indication of the care she received. We would absolutely trust Jordyn with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, dependable sitter.”
“Rosalina was awesome. I had someone cancel on me and she was able to accept the job very last minute. She sent so many pictures each day. I would definitely recommend and use her services again.”
“My dog Batman had a wonderful stay with Vanessa and Geoffrey. They have a great set up and were very attentive and loving towards my dog. I would definitely recommend them to anyone and will be booking again in the future!”
“Our dog stayed with Donna for nine days and she was fantastic! He warmed to her quickly and she was very loving with him. She also sent daily updates with photos, which we really appreciated as we were abroad and missed our dog very much. We would definitely use Donna again!”
“Brian is great! He makes our Milo feel like he’s on a relaxing vacation…while I’m on vacation. Brian’s communication is excellent and you’ll always get great photo updates of your pet’s stay. Highly recommend. Thank you!”
“Terez watched Reese for us during a quick weekend getaway. She was very flexible with our schedule in accommodating a pick up and drop off for us since we lived so conveniently close. Reese felt right at home with her. We will definitely use Terez again!”
“Aaron & Tia took great care of my Frenchie Bella. She had an initial knee injury that required crate rest and very limited activity and their willingness to accommodate our needs at the last minute for an extended (18 day) stay was beyond amazing. After the meet and greet with Aaron and their amazing soon I felt even more at ease. Prior to her stay, Bella was stung in the eye and was required eye drops in addition to the knee injury. Aaron wasn't phased by the additional special needs. While on travel in Asia, I received almost daily pics and a video. I could tell she was having a great time. She also needed to lose a few pounds to help with her knee injury and Aaron and Tia returned Bella in tip top shape and a few pounds lighter. She is off of her pain meds for her knee and her eye is healed. I can't thank them enough. When I met with them they only had a few reviews and I wasn't deterred. This is proof that the # of reviews does not determine the type of love and care your pup receives. I will be using their services again and again very soon.”
“David and his family were great for my dog! Very communicative through the whole process and made us comfortable at the meet and greet. They sent plenty of pictures of my dog accompanying their everyday life, so I know he was well taken care of and had a great time. Will definitely book David and his family again!”
“10/10, would highly recommend over anyone else. I have used Erwin’s dog sitting services at least three times now & every time was absolutely perfect. Smokey always comes home with the biggest smile on his face, smelling great from his complimentary wash. He’s always excited to hang out at Erwin’s, and one of Erwin's services in particular makes things so much easier ... door-to-door drop-off/pick-up! This is one of the many reasons we rebook, in addition to Erwin's punctuality, professionalism, and flexibility. His wife is absolutely amazing too! He has a reliable customer in us! Thank you!”
“Gucci had a great time as always and the daily updates including pictures is an exceptional value added to his stay and my comfort with his 2nd home 😁. He is taken great care of and I am worry free the entire time.”
