Jaclyn had a great big yard to Play in .At night we all Snuggled and watched TV together !I didn't even miss my Mom and Dad!(well maybe a little).I cant wait to go back there!!”
“We were very happy with our dogs stay with Jeanne. He enjoyed playing with the other dogs and in all of the photos she shared he looked so happy. We would board him with Jeanne again.”
“Connor was great with our dog Bolt! This was our first time going through the app, she made it very easy. We were bringing Bolt to a boarding place nearby but would always feel very on edge and worrying while on vacation. He would come home from the boarding place and his elbows were very rough and red and he would be so thirsty. I picked him up from Connor and he was fine, like he never left home. He was a little tired but that’s to be expected going to a new place. Connor’s house was clean and she has a very nice yard and large covered porch she sat under with him. She was easy to communicate with and flexible. As soon as I met her and she met my dog, I knew we were going to be good! I plan to bring him to her again soon and will continue to for as long as I can!”
“Khaila took great care of our pup, Chuck! She sent us a little picture or video everyday which gave us a lot of peace of mind. 100% recommend and we will be working with her again!”
“Janice was a very good communicator and provided me with many updates - including pictures - as she watched my pup. I was very comfortable with her caring for my pup. I would employ her again for sure!”
“Excellent and reliable. I got stuck in another state for an extra day due to a flight cancellation, and she was so helpful with watching my dog extra and flexible with a last minute change in plans. Used her services multiple times and always satisfied!”
“Diana was absolutely amazing with Nash! I can’t wait to use her services again! Nash went on plenty of walks her property is a dogs heaven. She sent so many pictures and updates! Truly the best possible experience!”
“Kyle & Kaleigh are our go to when we need leave our dog Ryder over night. Ryder gets excited when we pull in the driveway and cannot wait to get inside to see them & their two dogs!! Ryder gets lots of cuddles and play time in with them.”
“This was our second time booking with Cassidy family, and once again we’re so grateful she was able to accommodate a last-minute request! It gave us real peace of mind knowing Lucky was in good hands. She sent photo updates throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. Her dog and children were both incredibly sweet and gentle with Lucky — it’s clear they’re a dog-loving household. We’re confident Lucky was well cared for and would happily book with her again!”
“Peter is great! Excellent communication. He is prompt in responding to questions around availability. Very accommodating as far as setting up a meet and greet. My dog Lola immediately took to Peter and his adorable dog Zeffy. Which is saying something because she is very cautious with new people and situations. Lola really enjoyed spending time with her new friends and I will definitely be using Peter again.”
“Kimberly took very good care of our fur baby. She sent updates throughout the weekend. Brought toys for our dog. We thought our dog would not want to come home. Highly recommend.”
“Heidi was fantastic. She accommodated a last minute stay and kept me updated with photos that showed how much fun the dogs were having. While away, I was at peace since I knew the dogs were being cared for by Heidi. I totally recommend her and would certainly leave Rio and Pete with her again! Thank you Heidi!”
“Elisabeth makes Louise feel so welcome and at home. Louise is so excited to get out of the car there and I am so at ease knowing she is so well cared for. Highly highly recommend Elisabeth!”
“Trisha and her husband were outstanding! They kept us in the loop at all times, and sent frequent photos to show us what our golden retriever was up to. Their dog Stout was a great companion for our golden as well. I highly recommend them as dog sitters!”

“Jamie came out to visit us since it was our first time utilizing her services. She is a kind-hearted and trustworthy person who proved to be reliable and punctual, and also very sweet to our cat. We did not worry about our cat knowing she was in good hands. We will be calling on Jamie in the future. 🐈⬛”
“Abigail was so great with moose! She worked through a snafu with our keys seamlessly and cared for moose so well. We can’t thank her enough for taking care of our boy while we were gone for an evening. ❤️”
About: I have cared for cats, kittens, and other animals since I was 3, so I understand that every cat has their own unique personality and needs. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, whether a cat is playful and energetic or shy and independent. I have experience maintaining feeding routines, cleaning litter boxes thoroughly, and making sure cats feel comfortable and safe in their environment. What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet — I treat each cat like my own and always make sure they receive plenty of affection, comfort, and quality care.
About: I’ve always been passionate about dogs, and caring for them feels more like joy than work. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or making sure meals and routines are on track, I treat every pup like they’re my own. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your furry family member, so I focus on keeping them safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. From energetic puppies to senior snugglers, I adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind — because your dog deserves more than just care, they deserve genuine attention and affection. I do live on a secluded piece of land with 60+ acres ideal for your pup to stay if needed! We have hiking trails throughout the property and a porch to soak up some rays! I have most weekends off and one day a week I work from home. I can also drop in for evening care when needed ! I have experience with reactive dogs so I’m highly aware of all situations. I’m alert so I can keep your dog safe as well as myself.
“Beth was wonderful! She did a last minute drop in for our two dogs which I am grateful for. She stayed in contact, sent lots of pics, and followed all directions. I'd definitely book Beth again. Thank you!”
About: Been a dog lover and owner all my life and would love the opportunity to take care of your dog if our schedules are able to align. I'm a teacher, so my summers are generally pretty open. I work Monday and Wednesday nights from about 5-7pm, but am otherwise available, unless otherwise noted in my calendar. Available times may change. I am offering dog walking and drop-ins at the moment, but I will care for any dogs as if they were my own, and will be in contact with the owners on an as needed basis. I plan/hope to expand to dog sitting eventually.
“Lee was amazing! On time every day and always gave a summary of each visit with photos of our two cats. Lee gave lots of attention to Sally and Charlotte and had no problem administering their medication. We will be booking with Lee again for our next vacation!”
“Kaden was great! I got many updates and pictures during our vacation. I felt comfortable with him watching our kitty who is on medication multiple times a day! Would definitely use him again and would recommend him!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Alfred

“They were incredible... My dog is going through a shy phase and they couldn't have been kinder with him. They sent pics throughout the day and updates and the home and the yard were perfect for a dog to have a super fun day. These are seriously good people and we'll be using them again whenever we're in the area. The perfect family to leave your furry loved one with.”
“Hannah was excellent. She responded to me quickly—very important when you have left your search til the last day. She was clear, always very nice, calming, and she checked to be sure that my dog, Frances, had a temperament which did not object to the presence of her, evidently mellow, two dogs and one cat—she was just very good at customer service. I felt very secure with my dog staying in her (and her husband’s) care. She (and they) obviously knows and cares for dogs. I had useful feedback from the visit (my dog was fine with her cat—(and dogs)—though she has had very little exposure to cats—so it appears vibes are what count with Frances. ) Hannah was friendly even when I changed my time plans on the actual day, oh-so-gently informing me she would definitely modify whenever she could, but she was dealing as well with other customers’ sometimes conflicting schedules. She was very good!”
“Our dog Scotty was so happy to set up. There was great Eric was very knowledgeable about dogs and we felt very comfortable leaving our puppy they are he had a great time!”
“Vanessa is the first pet sitter we have tried since moving out of state and we feel very lucky we found her. She is very caring and loving and her house and yard are very well suited for safety and comfort. Both Princess and I felt comfortable after our meet and greet. Princess had an excellent day there with Vanessa and her pup Pepper who is a very sweet and good boy! I highly recommend Vanessa and will definitely be booking more stays with her!”
“Khaila provided amazing day care for my almost 2 year old cockapoo when I had a long work day. She was patient and gentle with him despite him being a nervous boy at first. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have always had dogs but am currently without one after my 16-year-old golden retriever passed away. I am comfortable working with dogs of all ages, and understand how their needs, routines and personalities change throughout their lives. I live in a quiet community with beach access a short walk away. If you have a pup that loves to swim, go on adventures or walks, or simply spend time outside, I would be a great fit. While your away, you can be sure they too are enjoying a mini vacation. I can work from home so your dog will not be lonely during the day. There are some days I may not be home all day, but I will be sure to give them plenty of exercise with time to run, play or swim in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. I also have a life jacket for those dogs who are not strong swimmers or who may want a little extra support in the water. I've not crated any of my dogs, but if you are more comfortable with crating, I can accommodate that if you bring yours. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a small side yard, access to trails and a beach so they will get plenty of time outside.
“We contacted Jeanne for daycare for our 2 dogs while we were camping nearby at Pinederosa. Jeanne was delightful and our dogs loved being there. Plenty of indoor and outdoor space too. Our corgi has lots of energy & our small adopted dog is a little anxious. Jeanne made them both feel safe and happy for the day. Thank you!”
“Bailey loves Kate. They played together and went on walks. I felt he was in good hands. I completely trusted her. Such a nice feeling to know your dog is both safe and happy.”
“Peter T knows his dogs. He is the most caring, knowledgeable, compassionate guy. My Rosie loved him from the get go. Look no further for the person who takes as much care and love as Peter T. I would drive from Massachusetts to Wells ME for this guy!!!! My husbands stress level dropped when we left her with him. On a scale of 1-5, i’d give him a 5 being the best st what he does.”
“It was a pleasure to have our whippet puppy Fern cared for by Cassidy and Cody while on vacation in Cape May. Cassidy and Cody were so laid back, relaxed and flexible when it came times and days we needed care for Fern. Fern was nervous at first meeting and staying with new friends Gus, (their dog) and their 2 children, but she was wagging her tail and so excited to go back to their house the following day! Fern got extra walks, and even went to the beach with them! We felt very comfortable leaving our baby In their care! I also appreciated getting text and picture updates of how Fern was doing throughout the day. I would definitely reach out to Cody and Cassidy again for dog sitting when we are in the area.”

“I have been bringing my pup here every week for the past 7 months and have always felt safe leaving her. My dogs gets SO excited when we get there which is heartwarming. They have an awesome yard for the pups to play together in! I have never had an issue and will continue to use Karen and her husband for the foreseeable future!”
“Briana accepted our Daisy on short notice and on a holiday weekend. Daisy had such a good day that I don't think she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up! I would highly recommend her services.”
“Becky is as close to perfect as one can get. She is thoughtful, caring, happy and reliable. Seriously do not know what we’d do without her to care for our very shy doggie - who can get into trouble now and then and she goes out of her way to help when we need, Thank you Becky 💛💛💛 Nothing but respect!”

About: I have had pets my whole life and have been pet sitting for the past five years. I have come to know these pets that I have watched as family members, but have since moved back to California! I have experience with cats and dogs, both my own, and other people that I have watched as well as a few bunnies and even some rats! I am happy to help with cleaning around the house or small gardening activities if necessary during longer trips or anything else that might be necessary for someone to have a comfortable vacation! I hope I can be your go to pet sitter for years to come! I just moved back to the area so I have a part-time job at a winery till about 6 pm on Fridays and Saturdays, but can work around that (just ask!) or any other day of the week! I love making pets feel comfortable and sticking to their given routine. I feel that when the parents are out of town, it can be stressful so keeping things as normal as possible is incredibly important! It’s great to go on walks for dogs and just to have some time lounging around for cats playing with one of their toys. I have experience with mildly aggressive or reactive dogs and semi feral cats and know some tips and tricks to make them feel more comfortable and less scared upon meeting me for the first time.
“Abigail is so wonderful! She checked in on my precious Bubba and sent me adorable pics of him enjoying their walk through the neighborhood. I work long shifts and her updates helped set my mind at ease. Would absolutely book again, 10/10!”

About: I have cared for dogs, cats, kittens, and puppies for most of my life.
