“They took care of Duke for the 2nd time. Duke was happy to see them upon arrival. Great updates throughout the stay. We highly recommend them and will be using them agian.”
“This was our first time leaving our puppy, and it seems that we weren't missed at all. James was very professional during the booking process, and was very thorough in making sure he understood everything he needed to know about Otis (who is very low maintenance, but I appreciated James' attention to detail.) I wish I had more to constructively report, but when everything goes exactly according to plan, all that remains for me to say is "Thanks, James!!!"”
“Courtney was absolutely fantastic! We were spending the week in OBX and needed a sitter for our nervous older dog and unfortunately could not meet ahead of time. Courtney had all safety precautions in place to have her dogs meet Porter one at a time and have him ease into the stay. Porter ended up having the best time ever and was exhausted on our trip back from so playing hard ? Courtney sent pictures daily and kept us updated with how he was doing. Porter can’t wait until his next stay!”
“Lauren had great communication before and during. Thankful she was able to accommodate our last minute request. Highly recommend lauren. Thank you again and have a blessed holiday.”
“Marcia was very accommodating when we asked to extend our dog’s stay. We could tell our dog was well cared for and enjoyed her time with Marcia and her family. Recommend booking with her!”
“Communication was great! For our first time we felt so comfortable leaving our baby! I was a nervous wreck but was constantly comforted with messages and pictures! She was in great hands during our absence. When we left she was so excited to see us but also so sad to leave her new family. Looking forward to future visits. Thank you for taking great care of our girl and for being so flexible!”
“What an incredible family taking care of our new puppy called Ziggy. We live abroad and needed a sitter until we could take him over full time. They were so easy to communicate with and so helpful with everything from change of food, treats, to teaching him demands and keeping him safe. He has been playing non stop with their house dog as well as with other dogs they have sat through the more than one month they took care of Ziggy. I can’t be thankful enough. Your dog will be safe with this family, I can assure you this! Thank you Maria & Matthew 🙏🏻”
“This was our second time having Cassie and Tradd watch our dog while we were in vacation and we can’t recommend them enough! He ran right in, so excited to be there, and we always appreciate all the updates they send. Definitely the best home away from home for our fur child ❤️”
“Andrew & Amanda & their little pup Chorizo were amazing with our Maltipoo. They communicated so well, answering our questions before we even asked, and sending photos. They treated her as if she was their own.”
“Shannon did a great job taking care of Leo. She kept me updated by sending pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. Leo only stayed for two nights, but he seemed to have a great time. She also had two other golden retrievers there, so he had some buddies to play with. Overall, he enjoy his stay. I would definitely trust Shannon to watch Leo again.”
“Couldn't be happier. My dogs LOVED Shelly and did not want to come home. Shelly is very responsive and sent updates so I could feel at ease. Absolutely wonderful experience.”
“Kristin family did an amazing job keeping Biscuit. She sent pictures throughout his stay and I could tell he really enjoyed himself. I will definitely be using them again.”
“Rachel was great with communication for pre drop off, drop off, during stay and pickup. I was able to bring my pup over for a meet and greet with her and her dogs prior to the boarding. Has a great sized yard and friendly dogs. She sent video updates everyday which I loved. I would recommend and will be using her again in the future!”
“Can not say enough with a difficult family situation she was super accommodating and with dates never sure they she was there for our pup photos daily and was very kind for our return. thank you....”
“Kristin has the perfect home away from home for our country dog. She's a very friendly, flexible and helpful sitter, and kept us abreast of everything our little girl was up to and how she was adjusting. Stella had a great time, and I would definitely leave Stella with her again.”
“Kimberly did such an amazing job watching our high energy girls! They came home tired and loved after our trip. It was so nice not having to worry about them while we were out of town and would have her watch them again in a heart beat!”
“I had a last menu catering gig that I had to prepare and Vania came through. I appreciate you and your family with taking care of my baby boy Diezel while I was away handling business . It never goes unnoticed . If I could give 10 stars , I would . Be blessed , always . I highly recommend .”
“Beverley is kind an has shown to be a second doggie mom to my Gio. He was happy and well taken care of in my absence. Will definitely use her services again.”
“I have nothing but good things to say about Sadie Mae's and Maggie's stay with Kody. My dogs were made to feel so much at home that we weren't missed at all and they were in no hurry to leave. We received regular updates with pictures of the good time they were having. I would definitely recommend Kody to anyone wanting an environment where your dog feels like they are at home.”

“Robbyn is so amazing and patient. My fur babies didn't come out from hiding but she was very understanding about it. I truly appreciate her!! And will definitely book her again!! Thank you Robbyn!!”
“Laura is a great pet boarder and my 2 cats were very comfortable with her and her family. (Thanks so much for taking wonderful care of them.) She sent me frequent pictures and I was surprised to see my shy boy actually coming to them for pets! She was also flexible with times which was a blessing as we were traveling out of town. We would absolutely board with them again!”
About: With several years of cat sitting experience I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family by providing check-ins, feeding, and playtime. I know how important it is to keep cats comfortable in their own environment with their own routine, and I’ll treat your Cat/cats with the same care and patience I’d give my own.
About: No discrimination here! All dogs need love, the young, the mature, and the occasional window licker too. I have always had a dog in my life, from my Childhood pet to my very own prince Charming. Our house is extremely dog friendly, we sit on a little under an acre of fenced in land. The garage is set up with 2 dog doors for their convenience. Inside the house we have built in gates to separate guests if needed. Not all dogs get along... My services include overnight boarding, and walking for now. We have 4 dogs of our own, which are well socialized and love meeting new friends! Onyx, is our lovable Lab middle child. Sassafras is a sweetheart, we were told she is a German Shepard mix. Onyx and Sassafras are the Pack Ambassadors, that Meet and Greet our house guests first. Charlie is an older Pitbull that keeps to herself, and Tucker doesn't know how big he is, and can be a little overwhelming. Additional Fees: Unavailable for a Meet & Greet - $25.00 Unaltered (not spayed or neutered) $45.00 Last Minute Booking (within 4 days of stay) - $75.00 I work for AMK9, a Police & Military Dog training facility in Moyock, NC. When I am away from the house my boyfriend is usually home, so your pups are always being looked after. Occasionally, we do need to run out, but my guests are never alone for very long. When we are gone, everyone is kept separate for safety. I take safety very seriously, for myself, my pups and most importantly your fur babies. I have a large fenced in yard, and the ability to keep pups separated in the event that personalities don't mesh well.
“Philip was awesome with Veronica! He sent pictures, told us about his interactions with her and made us feel like she was well cared for and happy! We look forward to planning our next adventure because we know Veronica will be in excellent hands!!! Thank you Philip! Gratefully - Anna with many PURRS from Veronica”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, especially cats and dogs, so caring for them feels natural to me. I enjoy spending time with pets, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, patient, and will always follow your pet’s routine and care instructions. I’ll treat your furry family member like they’re one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.
“Melody has done a great job of taking care of Victoria. We are pleased to have her. I feel very fortunate to have Melody and Matthew taking care of our Victoria”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 20+ years. I would love to take care of your fur babies! I am pretty fit and walk a lot so I would be able to walk your furry friend around! I look forward to meeting you soon! Pet care and home care fits in with me and my daily routine perfectly I have been housesitting and pet sitting and love doing it. I work from home and would be able to take care of your home and your pets on short notice. I have a big yard and live in a very nice neighborhood where I can walk your dogs. I’m also very responsible and can come to your home as well.
About: Hey! I am currently in school to be a vet! I can walk dogs 24/7 and give them all the loving! This would be a great way for me to expand my jobs with watching your dogs! I usually am up by 8am and spend most of the day with my dog while I do schooling at home. I’m mostly free of the day besides for leaving for work or getting my brother! I have a small dog who I feed, walk & play with. We do have a dog run in my apartments and I always take my dog out to play with his toys. I also love taking him for runs.
“Our cat was well taken care of. Carolyn came on the days scheduled and gave fresh food, water and clean the litter box. Our cat was fine when we returned home. Carolyn did a great 3!”
“I can’t recommend Kaylan enough! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond, not just checking the boxes, but truly caring for my animals like they were her own. Her updates were the perfect mix of hilarious and helpful (seriously, I looked forward to them like a mini comedy show), and they gave me total peace of mind while I was away. The real magic? My skittish barn cat, who usually acts like humans are a myth, actually walked past her like she belonged there. That’s a miracle in itself and says everything about her energy and patience. She clearly has a genuine knack for animals, even the tough cookies. If you’re looking for someone who’s not only responsible but has a true gift with animals (and a great sense of humor), Kaylan is the one!”
“Robert was amazing with my two dogs! He kept me updated with photos and took great care of them while I was away. They were happy and relaxed when I got back. Highly recommend him!”
About: As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet and your home in capable & caring hands when you have to be away. You will find me to be a laidback, easygoing and trustworthy home and pet sitter. I have years of experience as both a home owner and a pet owner, as well as considerable experience house/pet sitting throughout the mid-Atlantic area. I've been awarded the "Best of Thumbtack" award in the past, and have excellent reviews there. I truly care about the animals and homes placed in my care and am respectful, responsible and honest. House and pet sitting gives me the opportunity to spend time with other animals, and get to know new areas. As a pet owner myself, I enjoy offering other owners peace of mind when leaving their loved ones behind for an out-of-town trip. I know how important it is for me that my own kitty and, now, chickens (!) are safe and loved while I'm away, so I like that I can do that for other people, as well.
About: I have experience working with animals of all breeds/species. I used to work for a boarding/daycare/grooming facility that was also connected to a vets office. I’m familiar with farm animals, dogs, cats, most small pets, and reptiles. I had my own horse for 17 years. Currently I have two German Shepherds who are both 4 years old- so I’m very familiar with working breeds! *I have experience with administering medications and animal first aid* I’m currently a stay at home mom and have full availability. More than likely my son will be with me for drop in visits- but for house sitting, arrangements can be made if necessary! With my two being a working breed we go on a lot of walks, and play a lot of fetch. But they also know how to be couch potatoes! Either way I can follow the lifestyle your pet is used to whether it be cuddles and lounging or going outside to play. I’m all about communication so pictures and daily check ins are something I like to provide!

“Kristin was absolutely the best! Goose got so excited each day I dropped him off. Kristin was flexible with my changing work schedule and so loving towards my sweet boy. Will definitely be using her to care for my pup again.”
“Eric took amazing care of Damon! He came home so happy, and it's obvious he had a great time playing because he's completely exhausted and has been sleeping ever since. 😄 Communication with Eric was excellent from start to finish, and having his wife speak Spanish was a huge plus for me. It made everything even more comfortable and stress free. I truly think I found an amazing family to care for Damon. I highly recommend them, and I'll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Cassandra did a amazing job with my one year old Husky for Doggy Day Care , she will keep you updated with everything by sending you pictures of your dog having fun , and no doubt she did a amazing job.!”
“Baxter had a absolute blast with Melanie and Addison! Both of them are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and took amazing care of him. I feel fortunate to have found dog sitters who are genuinely kind and attentive. Baxter is already looking forward to his next visit. Highly recommended!”
“We are so appreciative of Ricardo and his family opening up their home for our dogs. Taking it slow and making sure they have a good time while we are getting settled into our new house. We get pictures and updates throughout the day and our dogs are so excited to get there to spend the day. Very grateful to have found them nearby to us.”
“Jason was great with our one year old puppy, Odin! We met with Jason and his dogs beforehand and we could already tell that Jason was going to be attentive and good with Odin. His dogs were all great, too! Odin played the day away and we got updates and adorable pics, which were very much appreciated. We will definitely be sending him back! Highly recommend!”
“My dog Coco enjoyed Tina’s doggy daycare. Tina was very friendly, responsive, and had great communication. She also gave very helpful notes at the end of my dog’s stay. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have been around dogs since I was about 8 years old and have experience with both small and large breeds. I have owned 4 dogs myself and caring for dogs has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Over the years, I have gained experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, breeds, energy levels, and personalities. I understand that every dog has unique needs and routines, whether that means lots of playtime and exercise or a calmer, more relaxed environment. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, basic care routines, and giving dogs the attention and patience they deserve while their owners are away. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will always treat your dogs like my own and provide reliable, loving, and attentive care. I’m currently working a flexible schedule and I am most consistently available in the afternoon and evening times during the weekdays and fully on the weekends to provide extra time for your animals! I have a fully fenced yard and the space/ability to crate as needed. I do currently have 2 friendly cats in home who are used to other cats/dogs. Each member of my household has experience with cats and dogs and would be excited to show yours some love and attention up close or far away! I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and comfort levels whether inside your home or mine.
About: Ever since I was young animals have played a huge role in my life. From my first dog to the mini zoo I have today. I am familiar with many breeds of dogs and cats as well as reptiles and recognize each one has its own characteristics and personality. Whether it's a walk, play time, or just someone to keep your pet company, I will appreciate and enjoy my time with them. I am a stay at home father of two. I am available most days. I have been working with pets for the past 4 years M-F with the occasional weekend visits. I love what I do and I take pride in my ability to befriend all pets. I believe each and every person has a responsibility, when they take on a pet, to give it the best life with a loving owner. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 lizards, 2 turtles, and 4 fish who all get attention suited to their needs and desires while also being attentive to proper and healthy care.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and love caring for them as if they are my children. I've had puppies to senior dogs who have passed on, so I am very comfortable with any stage in a dog's life. I treat my dogs like my own children and I know how difficult it can be to find someone who cares for your pets the same way you do, but I promise you that I will care for your pets in the same way I care for my own! I am currently not working, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet(s). Whenever you need me, I will be there. I am comfortable doing whatever you need me to do in order to take care of your pets. I can give your pets any medications they might need as well as tender loving care.
“Taylor was fantastic. She is very flexible with her time and very patient. She arrived on time and did a great job with my high-energy Siberian Husky. I will definitely re-book her.”
About: I absolutely adore dogs! I’ve had dogs for as long as I remember so I’m very experienced with them. I did a lot of dog-sitting as well as a kid and still help out with my friends dogs as well. There will always be someone in the home to care for the dogs. My 16 year old daughter is also home and can let the dogs out too. She has grown up with dogs her whole life as well. I have a fenced yard and an easily accessible walking trail behind my house. I have crates if needed. Dogs are a part of our family and I treat them as such. They are allowed on furniture and beds. If you don’t allow dogs on furniture I will respect that as well.
“Louie had an AWESOME time playing with Bucky & Wally at Grant & Caitlin's house! He had a blast running around the backyard, taking over the couch, & hanging out with Grant while he worked. He was completely exhausted when he got home! I got updates & adorable pics throughout the day & it was such a huge relief to know that my overly energetic pup was getting the playtime & attention he desperately needs while I sat in meetings all day. I can't recommend Grant & Caitlin enough - they treated Louie like their own dog & we will definitely be going back!”

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life. I have experience with all ages and senior care, as my childhood dog is now 13, and I frequently pet sit and care for her. I have taken care of family and friends dogs as well, from the ages of puppies all the way to senior. With always being around various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I have learned many things throughout the years. I have experience walking reactive and nonreactive dogs. As well as, bathing, playtime, potty breaks on and off leash, and, of course, giving lots of love and snuggles! I also have experience giving pills if needed. I would love to help with any needs you and your babies may have! I am currently free almost any day and time during the week. I am an ultrasound technician, and I am taking a break from working full time. I stay home and care for our home, and get to love on my doggy in the meantime. I have lots of availability to help out anyone who is looking for a caring person who will give their baby lots of love, and care for their unique needs. My dog Chili is a two year old rescue who was previously abused and became a stray. We had to help her overcome her anxiety through trust and training. We trained her to walk and potty on a leash, crate training, dog and people socialization, commands, and to be off leash. I have learned lots of patience and training skills to help her become comfortable with us and others. Now she is my little velcro dog and protector haha! I have learned throughout the years to always earn a dog’s trust to help ease any anxiety when meeting them. Boundaries are very important to me as well. If any are stated to me, they will be upheld. I appreciate those that listen to mine, so I will always listen to others.
“Robbyn was excellent! She was reliable and responsive. She would answer my questions at all hours of the day. She allowed my dog to go at his own pace and even picked up on his little nuances like wanting to carry his own leash. Highly recommended!”

About: I am a true animal lover. I have a level of empathy for pets that most people think is crazy. Your pet is part of your family and will be part of mine as well. I have a lot of love to give. I am more then happy to accept a million phone calls and texts because I know top care is important. I am patient and understanding and take the time to help with house breaking and learn new tricks. I use to breed Siberian huskies. That is one of the most energetic and mischevious breeds out there. I help with a local rescue in rehoming and donations. I am also actively involved with helping take strays to local vets and following up with owners. My family consists of me, my husband and our five children. There is always someone to give love and attention. We keep our own pets somewhat on a schedule and we play a lot in our back yard. I have a large fenced in yard and three very active dogs who enjoy to play. I also have 5 indoor cats. I can easily crate if needed.
About: I grew up with lots of animals and have plenty of experience. I have experience with senior animals. I have some experience in dog training as I trained my Labrador Retriever as a puppy in doggie obedience school. My Lab is now currently a senior doggie. We breed and raise pedigreed Mini Rex, and pedigreed Netherland Dwarf bunnies for showing and pets. My husband also has experience working with a vet some years ago, as well as experience in dog breeding. So I have even more experience as backup if need be. I homeschool a preteen and teenager. I'll be able to look after your pet so he or she will not have to stay crated all alone at home. Can provide frequent potty breaks for your pets. I like to get to know your pets typical routine so I can replicate that comfort for them 🙂
About: I changed the direction my life was going and found the REASON was Animal Care. I began volunteering at 2 local Humane Societies in 2013. Very shortly thereafter became employed at both Societies = working 7 days a week with animals. I adopted my first 2 pets (torti cats named Cali & Ava) in the Fall of 2013. Adopted a 3rd torti cat in the Spring of 2014 (named Hallie B). I adopted a chihuahua in the Fall of 2016 (named Clara my grandmother’s name). With the exception of Hallie B they have all crossed the Rainbow Bridge. The 1st in December 2020 then June 2021 and most recently in May of this year :-( 🐾🐾🐾 They were adopted as Seniors. They were the best. After 4 years of Humane Society work I changed direction again in 2017 to a more professional aspect of Animal Care becoming employed at a Veterinary Hospital as a Kennel Attendant for over 7 years. I have performed a number of cat drop-ins around the Gloucester area for various residents affiliated with the Humane Society. One such assignment lasted for almost two months while the cat’s owners traveled to Florida for the winter. I currently work (outside of Animal Care) OVERNIGHT 40 hours WEDNESDAY thru SATURDAY. Those days I am usually available for Animal Care from 8am to 2pm. Sunday thru Tuesday I am totally available. There is some flexibility with my overnight work and the possibility of a little accommodation for Animal Care. I also have to spare some time for my own cat’s care. Quality. Compassionate. Care. is what I provide pets. I want them to have the creature comforts that make them feel all warm and comfy and content.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, having owned pets from cats and dogs to hamsters and fish ever since I was a young child! I’m also the daughter of a veterinarian, who has taught me the intricacies of animal care. I helped train my late dog Snowman from when he was a puppy and also helped take care of my late cats Beau, Belle and Sithao in their final days I currently have an open schedule so I’m available to look after your fur babies as much as possible. I’m also available to travel far from my home to take care of them I will take care of your fur babies in your home while also respecting the privacy of your home. I am available to travel far and wide
About: For over 10 years, we've cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities — each one holding a special place in our heart. Whether it’s mealtime, playtime, bath time, potty training, or giving medications, We make sure every tail keeps wagging and every pup feels safe, loved, and at home. With a flexible work-from-home schedule, I’m here to give your dog plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I’m usually only out briefly in the mornings for school drop-off and in the evenings for kids’ sports — My husband is home during the evening time to keep your pup company. It’s a team effort to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved Our 1,650 sq. ft. home and fenced-in yard offer plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and relax. We’re happy to adapt our home to meet your dog’s unique needs during their stay, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved — just like part of the family. For added peace of mind, we have security cameras outside and cameras inside our home, so even if we’re away for a short time, we’re still keeping an eye on things to ensure everyone’s safety
About: My first two pets were 2 doggies at 9 months old. I had them for 17 years until they left for doggy heaven October 2024 and February 2025… I am not ready to fully commit again quite yet so decided babysitting and loving on others’ furbabies will help the healing. Work from home all week. Will be able to take care of them in home and overnight if needed! I will accomodate to all requests and needs. Will appreciate details such as age, allergies, health, likes and dislikes. Will treat your baby/babies like they are my own. Will walk them as I have a dog friendly neighborhood as well as a newly built dog park. The backyard is also fenced.
“Alyssa was flexible with our crazy Navy scheduling and constantly sent funny/cute pictures of our pup while she let him out around lunch. Would highly recommend!! She will love your pup as much as you do!!”
About: I am a mom to 4 high-energy medium/large breed dogs. I am no stranger to cleaning up accidents, administering medications, handling pets with reactivity, and fulfilling exercise such as playing fetch, tug, flirt pole, long walks, brain stimulation (keeping up with training/commands) or simply snuggling if your baby is low activity. I have been a self-employed residential cleaner for over 8 years and create my own schedule allowing me the flexibility to care for your pets and mine! I am so grateful for all my clients who trust me to help take care of their home and I am hoping to build trust with pet parents as I would love to transition into pet care full time, it has always been what I am most passionate about. While I do have four dogs of my own, I am able to keep your dogs separate from mine at all times if requested and or necessary when boarding. I built my dogs their own apartment behind our house fully equipped with heat, ac, a bed, and doggie door leading to a separate fenced in area so your dog(s) does not have to be dog friendly and we are also child free so your dog can be the only baby in our home the duration of their stay! But if you would like for your dog(s) to have a playdate and a doggie daycare style stay that can be arranged as well!
About: Hey! I’m Kay, your go-to local walker for keeping your dogs active, grounded, and well-exercised. Navigating neighborhoods and taking a good walk/run helps me also because I can get my steps in. Whether your pup needs to burn some serious energy before your workday kicks off or a solid mid-day stretch, I’ve got you covered. I'm a stay at home mom so I don't have much going on during the day. I would love to walk and play with your fur babies. When I’m dropping by or walking your dog, my main focus is keeping their routine smooth, safe, and stress-free. I treat your space and your pet with total respect—making sure leashes, keys, and doors are managed securely, water bowls are topped off And your pup is returned safely.
About: We have so many pets, I’m sure I can share my love to your pets! I love playing with dogs and cats and being able to help out wherever I’m needed! I am currently a professional dancer but I have a very flexible schedule! Happy to help out whenever is convenient for you and your schedule. I have no problem cleaning litter boxes, cleaning up animal pee and poop (should they have an accident in the house), and I love going on walks. I also love being able to love on those sweet faces.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, especially cats and dogs, so caring for them feels natural to me. I enjoy spending time with pets, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, patient, and will always follow your pet’s routine and care instructions. I’ll treat your furry family member like they’re one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I work PRN, which allows me to make my own hours. I occasionally work overnight shifts, and on Mondays and Thursdays I help with shipment at a clothing store from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. Outside of those times, I have a flexible schedule and can plan around pet care. I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care and will make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and love they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, I always respect your space and follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll follow any instructions you leave, including medications, feeding schedules, or special care needs. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind.
About: I have been taking car of all kinds of dogs for years. I've watched dogs from Labrador puppies to senior German Shepards. I've owned dogs my whole life and I've always had a special bond with them. Dogs usually gravitate towards me because I am a very fun and light hearted person. My friends often refer to me as a Disney princess because of how I am with animals. I belive all animals need love and respect and I always do my best to make them feel safe and loved. I am a nanny for a mother of three during the day but I am usually only needed two or three days a week so my weekends are completely free. Even days when I watch my kids I am off by 3pm and can spend evenings with the pets. I have several dogs of my own so my house is fully equipped with w fenced in yard and my house is pet safe. In regards to a clients home I would of course check what the client has in place but as a pet owner I am also aware pets can be sneaky and love to get into mischief. I am always checking on clients pets making sure they are safe and not getting into things they shouldn't. I am also certified in pet cpr and massage therapy incase a pet does get into distress or if they need some other help with pain. Over all my priority is always the health and safety of my client beloved pets.

“They took care of Duke for the 2nd time. Duke was happy to see them upon arrival. Great updates throughout the stay. We highly recommend them and will be using them agian.”
“This was our first time leaving our puppy, and it seems that we weren't missed at all. James was very professional during the booking process, and was very thorough in making sure he understood everything he needed to know about Otis (who is very low maintenance, but I appreciated James' attention to detail.) I wish I had more to constructively report, but when everything goes exactly according to plan, all that remains for me to say is "Thanks, James!!!"”
“Courtney was absolutely fantastic! We were spending the week in OBX and needed a sitter for our nervous older dog and unfortunately could not meet ahead of time. Courtney had all safety precautions in place to have her dogs meet Porter one at a time and have him ease into the stay. Porter ended up having the best time ever and was exhausted on our trip back from so playing hard ? Courtney sent pictures daily and kept us updated with how he was doing. Porter can’t wait until his next stay!”

“Communication was great! For our first time we felt so comfortable leaving our baby! I was a nervous wreck but was constantly comforted with messages and pictures! She was in great hands during our absence. When we left she was so excited to see us but also so sad to leave her new family. Looking forward to future visits. Thank you for taking great care of our girl and for being so flexible!”
“What an incredible family taking care of our new puppy called Ziggy. We live abroad and needed a sitter until we could take him over full time. They were so easy to communicate with and so helpful with everything from change of food, treats, to teaching him demands and keeping him safe. He has been playing non stop with their house dog as well as with other dogs they have sat through the more than one month they took care of Ziggy. I can’t be thankful enough. Your dog will be safe with this family, I can assure you this! Thank you Maria & Matthew 🙏🏻”
