“Our first visit was so smooth. My dog seemed immediately comfortable with Katie. She sent pictures through the weekend and was flexible with pickup times. We are already looking to rebook her for next month. Thanks Katie?”
“Our first time boarding with Shelby was a great experience! She was flexible, communicative, and followed all care instructions for our dog Loki. Will definitely be calling her up in the future.”
“If I could give 10 stars, I would. Katelyn is very kind and helpful, in addition to being understanding of HoneyBee's blindness and separation Anxiety. I appreciate all the pictures and videos of my pup while I was away, and especially all the attention given to my pup as well as flexibility of scheduling. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area.”

“Appreciate Lucy and Daniel so much, they did a wonderful job with our pup. Provided updates and were very communicative throughout booking and the stay, would absolutely trust them to watch our boy anytime.”
“Diana was great with our two dogs. She sent plenty of pictures/updates and it looked like they enjoyed their stay bery much. Diana was very accommodating and flexible with it came to pick them up due to our flight getting cancelled because of the weather. Thank you very much for everything regarding your care for our furbabies. ❤️”
“Tiffany was very responsive when something was not right with one of our dogs during the boarding and went above and beyond trying to help. Her responsiveness allowed us to address the situation promptly.”
“Kelly and Maurice are more than awesome. I know that Zuri will be well care for and loved when I have to leave town. They treat her like family. They send videos and pics for reassurance that things are going well. I appreciate their professionalism and true dedication. They implemented some changes for their customers based on what they observed from my experience with them. That is more than customer service, that’s customer satisfaction. They are an A1 service all the way around.”
“Wonderful experience! This was my first time using a sitter through rover and Thomas and Melissa were so caring. They sent daily pictures and were absolute wonderful. Will definitely book again for any future stays!”
“So happy that we were able to find Ashley on such short notice. She took very good care of our Leo. She made sure to send regular updates and some adorable pictures of our dog enjoying himself. Thanks again, and I look forward to booking with you in the future”
“Fantastic - Amazing - Wonderful! Yukia was a great communicator from the start. We talked before we brought our rascal over. We even did a meet and greet just to make sure he would take to her - and he sure did! During our trip she sent daily photos and updates, and our kids could not wait to get them every day. I could tell when I went to pick him up that he was very happy to be with her. For a quick moment he could not decide if he wanted to stay with her or come back home. It was his first time with someone else and she obviously took great care of him. There is no doubt that we have found our pet sitter for good!”
“My dog was a little on edge due to the new environments at Jenna's home when I first dropped him off. But not too longer after I left, I received a photo of him lying on her lap as content as could be.”
“This is the second time Pretzel has stayed with Andy and Lydia, and it was wonderful once again! He had such a good time. Andy was very responsive on the app, and sent daily updates and photos. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up caring for 3 dogs, 2 cats, birds, lizards, hermit crabs, fish, and rabbits. Taking care of pets has always come naturally to me. Since I was around 10 years old, I’ve helped walk my neighbors’ dogs and puppies, as well as pet sit their dogs and cats while they were away on vacation. I’m very patient, attentive, and love making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of the family. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be home throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, check-ins, and lots of attention. My 5-month-old daughter and I spend a lot of time at home, so I’m able to provide consistent care, companionship, and updates for pet owners. I enjoy having animals as part of our daily routine and make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. In my home, pets are treated like family and are welcome on the furniture for comfort and companionship. I create a calm, loving environment where animals can feel safe and relaxed while away from their owners. My cats have access to food and water throughout the day, with their setup safely placed out of reach from dogs when needed. I do not crate animals unless specifically requested by the owner, as I prefer pets to feel comfortable and free in the home. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level to make sure they receive individualized care, attention, and plenty of love.
“She is the best! So calm and professional even around my crazy excited dog. I trust her so much. Will book her anytime. My dog always looks around for her car when we go out- that alone tells me he is happy there. Just book her. Your pup will appreciate it. Love the photos she gives at the end of the boarding.”

My schedule can be very flexible! I am only there to take of your animals, so I will only be utilizing the tools I need to do that (food, toys, crate, etc.). I am very respectful of your space, and your guidelines/routines that you have set for your pets.
About: I’ve had the joy of sharing my life with cats for as long as I can remember, and right now, I’m lucky to have an amazing 3-year-old cat who is so sweet.

I understand the importance of routine, and I strive to minimize stress by maintaining consistency. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing a loving and safe environment
“Alyssa did an awesome job caring for my puppies. She was a great communicator and sent great pictures. I requested her pretty last minute but she was very responsive and I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’ve owned 5 dogs through my life & have always loved caring for others’ pets as well. Being around animals is my happy place 🥰 I work part time on a charter boat & would love something besides gardening to keep me busy during the week. Also trying to save up for an Rv to travel I’ve been around all types of different kinds of dogs and know how to deal with different personalities and needs ❤️ from weeks old to golden days I love them all
About: I have had 10 years of personal experience with dogs of varying sizes and cats as well. I have a golden retriever myself as well as a burmese cat back at home in Virginia! I have no allergies to dogs or cats. I am comfortable with picking up after animals if need be;) as well as taking care of more than one animal at once. I have reliable transportation to and from location. Will leave notes if anything happens, and will send lots of pictures if wanted! You can trust me to love and care about your furry friends! I always have my phone on me if any concerns or needs may come up or change. I live in an apartment with a huge courtyard that is fenced in where your pets can run and play! Thank you!
“Samantha did a fabulous job of staying at our house and taking care of our cat Duke while we were on vacation. She was even flexible and stayed an additional night at the beginning since we needed to depart a day earlier to avoid any weather delays. She sent daily pictures and kept in touch with us throughout the stay. I recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“Again, Sarah did a great job caring for our cats KitKat and Twix while we were away for a few days. She sent detailed updates with pictures and we could tell the cats enjoyed her visits.”
About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting in owner's homes for over ten years but I've been a pet lover my whole life! There has never been a dog or cat that I've met that I didn't absolutely love! My relationship with a pet and their owner is extremely important to me and I take care of every dog and cat as if they were my own! I have accommodated a wide variety of demands from owners, and not one of them have been unhappy with my service. Before I care for your pet I would like to meet with you (the owner) and your pet to go over your pet’s daily routine and any concerns you may have. My goal is for everyone to be happy and leave with their tails wagging! I’m currently working part time as a business owner so I am able to come walk, sit stay or play with your puppers any time of day! I understand that maintaining a consistent schedule is very important for pets and sticking to that schedule is top priority for me. I prefer to care for pets in their own environment where they are the most comfortable and at home! I am currently unable to host pets in my space.
About: As a dedicated dog walker and in-home pet sitter with over two years of experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. I care for every dog (and cat!) as if they were my own — with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs and routines. What You Can Expect: ✅ Safe, fun, and tailored walks ✅ Home visits that follow your pet’s schedule ✅ Clean water, food, meds (if needed), and lots of affection ✅ Daily photo updates and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going ✅ Respect for your home and your pet’s space I’m trained in basic pet first aid and always check collars, leashes, and gates before heading out. Whether it’s a quiet walk or an energy-burning play session, your pet's safety and happiness are always my top priority. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help make your time away stress-free for both of you. 🐶🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because of how flexible and rewarding it is. Since I set my own schedule, I can book pet care clients around my part-time job shifts and study blocks, which helps me stay balanced and productive. Walking dogs gives me a much-needed mental reset from screen time and studying, and it keeps me active throughout the day. It’s also a great way to supplement my income without taking on another traditional job. Most of all, spending time with animals brings me a lot of joy and motivation — it breaks up long study days and reminds me why I love what I do Whether you’re at work or away for a few days, I provide reliable, in-home care that keeps your pets safe, happy, and stress-free in their familiar environment. From daily walks to feeding, playtime, and medication routines, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. 🔐 Safety & Professionalism Equipped for pet first aid always carrying a kit Detailed home-entry and security protocols Leash and harness checks before every walk Weather-conscious and always alert to potential hazards Respectful of your home, your pets, and your time 📸 Peace of Mind After each visit, you’ll receive a photo and short update so you know how your furry friend is doing — because trust is built on communication

I assure that under my care, your pet will experience my highest care and attentiveness to their needs.

I have a plethora of experience handling most types of dogs, and I assure that under my care, your companion won’t be short of the love and attention it deserves from their caretaker! Im currently a student at UNCW working part time during the summer, however I am very flexible and I have a car to easily come to you! I have open availability on the weekends and most weekdays!

“I was in town to work the Annapolis Sailboat show and Hutch spent 4 days with Jenna. She sent pics and reports and I really felt Hutch was in good hands ! I plan To book her next year !”
“Lucy and Daniel are a great team for the best doggy daycare you could ever want/need for your dog! My dog is extremely needy and they gave him nothing but love. We look forward to next time!”
“Our pupper enjoyed his day stay and really got to stretch his legs in such a large yard. We received regular updates and felt at ease leaving him in such capable hands.”
“Elaine welcomed my Ziggy with open arms and heart. She is warm, friendly, loves dogs and treats them like family. Since being attacked by another dog at a dog park Ziggy has been anxious and nervous in different situations. When I returned I found a happy, smiling pup, which spoke volumes for his care with Elaine. I feel like I found a new family member who loves dogs as much as myself and shows Ziggy the kind of love to feel safe at home with her. Thanks Elaine”
About: My family and I had two amazing dogs growing up who recently passed away, and I’ve really been missing that kind of dog love. I just graduated college and would love to spend more time around pets while gaining more experience caring for them. I recently graduated college, where I was a student-athlete majoring in criminology and sociology. I’m looking to gain more hands-on experience in animal care while I'm in the application process— and have a pretty flexible schedule! When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize maintaining their familiar surroundings. and following their routines, including feeding times, walks, and play sessions. I make sure to provide regular updates to the owners, giving them peace of mind while they're away.
“Andy & Lydia took wonderful care of our pup during his day visit in their home, he was so happy and energetic when we picked him up, we knew he had had a great time!”
About: Hi there! My name is Stacia and I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I am a dog owner too! My older dog recently passed in March. He had a pericardial effusion and diagnosed anxiety. My other pup is about to turn 2 in July. I’m familiar with ensuring the environment is right for your dog whether they are in my home or I am dropping in to spend time / walk your dog. I understand the importance of making sure your guidelines for your pet are followed. I can give medications, follow training rules, walk large dogs, handle dogs that aren’t friendly with other people or dogs, high anxiety, and have disabilities (ex. Deaf, blind). If you have any additional questions for me, please don’t hesitate to ask. I believe in open communication to ensure the safety of you, your pet, me and mine! I work fully remote and am able to support drop ins, walks and daycare. I walk my dog morning, mid day and evening for 30 min to an hour at a time. I’d like to be able to support other people who need assistance. I have a fenced yard in our home and a friendly, playful 2 year old male lab (fixed). If your dog is in our home, they need to be friendly with other dogs and potentially able to be closed into a room for a period of time if I have a meeting. I’d make sure to communicate this information when you are booking. For walks / being in your home, I ask for honesty in how you want your dog to be cared for. Ideally I’d prefer they are friendly so that I can bring my dog for walks too but understand that’s not always the case.
“Laura is fantastic! Our pup Luna had a great time and loved playing around in the yard and with her two lovely pups. Laura was great to work with and sent pictures during Luna’s daycare session. Thanks!”

“Alex Z. was amazing! Very loving and caring while dog sitting for my 3 month old puppy. Her pets were loving and playful also. She took lots of pics and kept me updated with his activities throughout the day. Will definitely request her services again.”
“Julia was incredibly responsive and promptly accepted our last-minute request. She took excellent care of our dog, providing frequent updates and photos that truly went above and beyond. She was attentive to his needs and very respectful of his comfort level. As a bonus, she has a delightful dog of her own, and ours clearly enjoyed the time playing together.”
“Kacie was just great with our pup! Even though this was our first visit, they bonded quickly and I knew he was going to have a fun day. Walks, play date with another pup and a trip to the dog park - all things wonderful for an eager playful pup. I walked away as he walked in the house with Kacie. He was happy when I picked him up - perfect day in every way. Highly recommend Kacie - your pup will be in great hands. Plus, she’s so nice and super friendly!!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and have been a veterinary technician for 8 years, so your pup will be in knowledgeable, experienced hands. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I stay home with my toddler, which means your dog will receive plenty of supervision, structure, and love throughout the day. I also have two very friendly, well-socialized dogs of my own who love making new friends. I treat every dog like part of the family and understand how important it is to have someone you fully trust caring for your pet. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m home full-time and already structured around consistent schedules. Our days include regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest periods, so adding another pup into that rhythm is easy and intentional. I plan my day around the dogs’ needs — whether that’s supervised outdoor time, enrichment activities, or quiet crate breaks — making sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and included. Because I’m home, your dog will never be left alone for long periods and will always have attentive, hands-on care. I have a fenced yard for free roaming with my dogs or play time. I also have space for crates if you dog needs to be crated during the night or any specific time.
About: I am a trustworthy, responsible, reliable, and caring person who loves dogs. To fill the void of not owning my own dog at the moment, I am available to help my friends and neighbors with their pets. I will treat your dog with love and genuine care. My schedule is quite flexible and includes weekend availability. I look forward to caring for your dog as if she/he were my own. Let’s connect. I am happy to make arrangements based on what is best and most comfortable for your dog. Let’s talk about what works for you and go from there.
About: I will treat your pet as my own with care, welcoming hugs, and one on one attention. I’m not in the position to have a pet right now but find much joy from being with animals. I’ve had both small and large dogs. I have experience providing dogs with medications as both of my previous dogs needed multiple medications in their older years. I’ve lived with my partner’s cat for a few years and enjoy cats. However, I have less experience with higher needs cat care. I’m open to cat care though. I once watched 10 cats and a goose during grad school. I would go into the house several times a day to change litter and play with the cats and goose. I’m currently work part time three days a week. This allows me to provide individual attention and spend quality time with the pets I care for. I integrate my visitor pets into everything I do. I will primarily walk your pet but I do have a small fenced yard (20x7). The yard has payers and some a small flower bed/dirt area. It is connected to my work area and I can watch your pet in the yard should fresh air breaks be needed. I would not leave your animal in the yard alone as I think that not okay. If I am inside, they will be inside. I have experience crating pets should that be preferred. However, I’m fine with pet’s being able to roam my home.
“Rachele was there when we most needed it! She makes it look easy, is super flexible and accommodating, and my sweet Wyatt came home happy and well exercised and excited to go back again and again. In a short period of time, Rachele became a reliable and comforting second home & caregiver for our pup. Thank you!!!”
“Ed and Amy are pleasant and attentive to their pet guests. Plus, they are very good about making sure animals get bathroom breaks and exercise. In addition, Gunner’s warm demeanor always makes people feel welcome.”

I am currently a junior at covenant college studying biology. I plan on applying to med school and becoming a doctor in a field where I can be an asset in medicine. I am currently a Vet Tech at Great Scottie Veterinary Clinic. I am a lover of animals and will do all that I can to provide the joy and satisfaction your pet needs! I take safety and trust seriously when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, and routines so pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure pets are supervised, kept in safe areas, and never put in situations that could be unsafe. In my home, I keep a clean and calm environment where pets have fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. I always use leashes on walks and make sure dogs are secure when outside. In a client’s home, I respect their space and try to keep the pet’s routine the same as usual. I also provide updates and photos so owners know their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.
About: I am a lover of all animals who wants to be able to take care of as many of them as possible. I have two dogs of my own, 2 fragile and precious little Italian greyhounds. I have taken care of my own family cats and dogs since a young age, and my sisters and brother-in-laws have entrusted me for the last several years to take care of their multiple dogs and cat while living together. I have a family friend whose dogs I have taken care of for many years as well. I am currently working full-time from home, and would love to take care of your animals while doing so! My schedule can be very flexible! I am only there to take of your animals, so I will only be utilizing the tools I need to do that (food, toys, crate, etc.). I am very respectful of your space, and your guidelines/routines that you have set for your pets.
About: Lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. I grew up with two family dogs and now have a 6-year-old “super mutt” named Mija who completely runs the household (and honestly, I’m okay with that). I’m responsible, trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely happiest when I’m around animals. Whether your pet loves long walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just a calm comforting presence, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously — while still making sure your furry family member has a fun, loving experience. I currently work part time in e-commerce and my availability is very flexible. I’m working towards a real estate license and my long-term goal is to retire my mom! I have experience caring for and walking dogs of all breeds and sizes, including large breeds that require confidence, awareness, and strong handling skills. Safety is always my top priority, and I have exceptional risk assessment when it comes to walks, environments, and interactions with other animals. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions and routines. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important structure, consistency, and enrichment are for pets. My own dog thrives on her daily routines and knows exactly when it’s time for walks, dinner, and her nightly “search and find” game. I genuinely love building trust with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I've grown up taking care of and training dogs my whole life, and have lots of experience with high energy dogs! I currently have 3 older dogs that have been with me since they were puppies. Looking to help out with dog walks and/or drop in’s! I’m currently working from home with a very flexible schedule. Mornings and early afternoons work best, but feel free to reach out about other times! Always making sure they are properly collared and leashed for walks, keeping their environment safe and making sure they can’t get into anything, and doing everything I possibly can to make them the most comfortable. Please let me know anything you already do with them (fun activities, routines, etc) so that I can help them feel as relaxed as possible!
About: Hi! I’m Courtney — a true dog lover, experienced pet caregiver, and someone who treats every pet like family. As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, couch snuggles, or just a calm and reassuring presence, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have extensive experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and care needs, and I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to details. For house sitting, my standard rate includes typical care such as feeding, walks/potty breaks, companionship, overnight care, and lots of love. If your pet requires additional support — including senior care, medication administration, frequent potty breaks (every few hours), mobility assistance, separation anxiety management, or near-constant supervision — please let me know before booking, as these higher-needs situations may require custom pricing to ensure I can provide the level of care your pet deserves. Please be as detailed as possible about your pet’s routine, behaviors, and care needs so I can make sure we’re the right fit. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member!
About: I have helped take care of my dog for the past 5 years, along with occasionally taking care of and walking friends and families pets for years! I’m recently graduated from Jacksonville University, and am living with some family in Edgewater this summer! While I plan for grad school, I’m nannying, but am looking for some extra money and thought taking care of some pups would be perfect! I’m very flexible and am available most weekdays and weekends this summer. I will not be able to boards your pups, but am an extremely responsible 22 year old, who will play with and give your pups all the love!
About: Hi there! My name is Stacia and I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I am a dog owner too! My older dog recently passed in March. He had a pericardial effusion and diagnosed anxiety. My other pup is about to turn 2 in July. I’m familiar with ensuring the environment is right for your dog whether they are in my home or I am dropping in to spend time / walk your dog. I understand the importance of making sure your guidelines for your pet are followed. I can give medications, follow training rules, walk large dogs, handle dogs that aren’t friendly with other people or dogs, high anxiety, and have disabilities (ex. Deaf, blind). If you have any additional questions for me, please don’t hesitate to ask. I believe in open communication to ensure the safety of you, your pet, me and mine! I work fully remote and am able to support drop ins, walks and daycare. I walk my dog morning, mid day and evening for 30 min to an hour at a time. I’d like to be able to support other people who need assistance. I have a fenced yard in our home and a friendly, playful 2 year old male lab (fixed). If your dog is in our home, they need to be friendly with other dogs and potentially able to be closed into a room for a period of time if I have a meeting. I’d make sure to communicate this information when you are booking. For walks / being in your home, I ask for honesty in how you want your dog to be cared for. Ideally I’d prefer they are friendly so that I can bring my dog for walks too but understand that’s not always the case.
“Andrew did a great job this weekend! He walked my very large Labradoodle and St Bernadoodle and made sure both dogs and my 3 cats were fed and had water. He followed the care instructions, was extremely communicative and arrived promptly at the booking time. I will absolutely be using Andrew for future bookings, highly recommended!!”

“Our first time boarding with Shelby was a great experience! She was flexible, communicative, and followed all care instructions for our dog Loki. Will definitely be calling her up in the future.”
“What a delightful time Ginger had, with this lovely family. Carlie was attentive, flexible, and like a second home while I was away. I will definitely be returning.”
“Appreciate Lucy and Daniel so much, they did a wonderful job with our pup. Provided updates and were very communicative throughout booking and the stay, would absolutely trust them to watch our boy anytime.”
“Tiffany was very responsive when something was not right with one of our dogs during the boarding and went above and beyond trying to help. Her responsiveness allowed us to address the situation promptly.”
“Wonderful experience! This was my first time using a sitter through rover and Thomas and Melissa were so caring. They sent daily pictures and were absolute wonderful. Will definitely book again for any future stays!”
“Fantastic - Amazing - Wonderful! Yukia was a great communicator from the start. We talked before we brought our rascal over. We even did a meet and greet just to make sure he would take to her - and he sure did! During our trip she sent daily photos and updates, and our kids could not wait to get them every day. I could tell when I went to pick him up that he was very happy to be with her. For a quick moment he could not decide if he wanted to stay with her or come back home. It was his first time with someone else and she obviously took great care of him. There is no doubt that we have found our pet sitter for good!”
“My dog was a little on edge due to the new environments at Jenna's home when I first dropped him off. But not too longer after I left, I received a photo of him lying on her lap as content as could be.”
“This is the second time Pretzel has stayed with Andy and Lydia, and it was wonderful once again! He had such a good time. Andy was very responsive on the app, and sent daily updates and photos. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up caring for 3 dogs, 2 cats, birds, lizards, hermit crabs, fish, and rabbits. Taking care of pets has always come naturally to me. Since I was around 10 years old, I’ve helped walk my neighbors’ dogs and puppies, as well as pet sit their dogs and cats while they were away on vacation. I’m very patient, attentive, and love making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of the family. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be home throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, check-ins, and lots of attention. My 5-month-old daughter and I spend a lot of time at home, so I’m able to provide consistent care, companionship, and updates for pet owners. I enjoy having animals as part of our daily routine and make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. In my home, pets are treated like family and are welcome on the furniture for comfort and companionship. I create a calm, loving environment where animals can feel safe and relaxed while away from their owners. My cats have access to food and water throughout the day, with their setup safely placed out of reach from dogs when needed. I do not crate animals unless specifically requested by the owner, as I prefer pets to feel comfortable and free in the home. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level to make sure they receive individualized care, attention, and plenty of love.
“She is the best! So calm and professional even around my crazy excited dog. I trust her so much. Will book her anytime. My dog always looks around for her car when we go out- that alone tells me he is happy there. Just book her. Your pup will appreciate it. Love the photos she gives at the end of the boarding.”
“Donna is a true dog lover. It was evident to us from our meet and greet that she is familiar with dog behavior and has the temperament to deal with different types of dogs. She was very warm and loving to our dog, got to know him and cared for him accordingly. We were kept abreast of what was going on with him every day of the 10 days that we were away and felt totally comfortable with her. We will definitely board our dog with her again.”
About: I've had dogs my whole life. Grew up in a house with 2+ dogs near constantly. All family dogs were 60+ lbs each with the largest being 110lbs. My 75lb dog crossed the rainbow bridge Sept 2025, I am not ready for a dog full time but I do miss the company. I will spoil your dog. I do not care about breed. I am looking for weekends. I work full time, so I am ready to go around noon on Friday and depending on the needs can be around all weekend. Generally I do leave the house during the weekend for a couple hours during the day to do chores and stuff but other than that can be a total home body. If the dog is good on leash I have a great neighborhood to take walks. If you are looking for me to stay at your house over the weekend, I can provide as much potty coverage as you request. If you want me to stay over the week, I do have a day job with my schedule being 7-3. I have a 8ft privacy fence the whole way around my backyard with a dog door. I do not have a crate, but I can use yours if you want your dog crated. I follow your food rules. I used to make hot breakfast/dinner for my dog. I do keep some dog treats in the house but I will check with you if your dog can have that specific treat first and if there are any dietary needs. If you want me to stay in your house, lets write the rules down and I'm happy to do whatever. If you have poor cellphone service, it'd be great to get a wifi password.
“Lovely couple with a baby and a toddler. Buffy had to warm up to Parker, their German Shepherd but I hear it went well. Tyler and wife watched Buffy on a holiday, July 4th. They were very gracious when I requested an itinerary change. I felt like they were really attuned to Buff-dog. Will definitely ask again for their assistance.Highly recommend.”
“OMG! Marta is awesome. Prince enjoyed his time with Marta and Lucas. Marta sent pictures and updates on Prince every morning and every evening. Prince came back home well rested and relaxed and ready to go some more. I highly recommend Marta to take care of your fur baby. Marta is sensational, wonderful spirit and personality.”
“Celena was great! She sent tons pictures of our boy having a great time and she had plenty of updates. We also appreciate that she worked with us on our drop-off and pick-up times! We will definitely work with her again!”
“Riley was an outstanding sitter for our pup! He is a blind 10 yr old and she took the best care of him. She gave us updates throughout his stay and I really appreciated the pictures. If we’re ever in the area again, I would definitely trust Riley and she is our go to.”
“Julia was wonderful! We left our doodle with her over the weekend and she seemed to have had a great time. Julia sent us multiple updates throughout the day with multiple pictures as well! Pick up, drop off, and communication went smoothly. We would definitely trust her to host our doggo again!”
“Roxie had a great time with Jake and Melissa. They sent me pictures of her which made my day. I did not have to worry about her at all which is so nice when being on vacation. Would absolutely use them again!!”
