“Melissa has been wonderful with my cocker spaniel! My puppy was so excited to see her when she came to pick her up for boarding for our second time! She doesn't react like that to many people! Obviously she had been well loved while she was in Melissa's care earlier! I really appreciated the update texts and photos that she sends! I plan to use her again in the near future!”
“Joanna is a caring and very knowledgeable professional. It is clear from the first minute that she has a real talent and heart for animals. She worked with our finicky little girl and lo and behold found a food she loves. Being an only dog, Jamie loved learning how to be part of a pack and also appreciated having a cat, like her pal at home, to be with. Joanna not only put up with our little diva's idiosyncrasies, she enjoyed them. We, and Jamie, look forward to having another "adventure" with Joanna.”
“Valerie is amazing with my baby. She always sends pics. I call her my baby's stepmom😁. Valerie is always my 1st choice sitter. When she's not available, I'm devastated 💔. My baby absolutely loves her. My baby is blind, but when he hears her voice, he gets so excited.”
“Another great experience with Meghan! Echo loves her time with Meghan and friends. She is made right at home there. I never worry about her...she's treated like part of the family. Would HIGHLY recommend Meghan :)”
“Amanda was great with our handsome Finn! We had a last minute matter come up out of state and our regular sitter was out of town as well. Luckily after searching and searching I was able to find Amanda! We have a 7ish year old Doberman who is super loving and quirky and she took such great care of him. I’m so happy that I did not have to worry as she was sending pics and updates the entire time. Finn came home happy and healthy and we will definitely be using her services in the future. Thanks Amanda!!!”
“I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Lorraine to keep your animal. Not only is she home and attentive, she keeps you well informed about how the dog is doing while away. I felt very secure leaving my rat terrier for the first time ever and will absolutely use her again. She adored my pup the whole time and I cannot say enough how much I appreciate that! Also accommodating to keep a extra day so I didn’t have to rush. Thank you soooo much!! 5 stars!!”
“This is the second time we’ve had Sharon watch our pups and I will continue to rebook with her! I can go on vacation without a single worry because she truly treats them as if they’re her own. So thankful we found her!”
“Lauren and Jeremy are a great couple who immediately made us feel comfortable leaving our dog Millie. You can tell they love having dogs and making others they are watching feel right at home. Lauren sent us a pic and kept us up to date on how Millie was doing. So happy that we have found great care for Millie when we need it!!”
“Kerri and her family took such good care of my dog Ollie. He came back home a happy boy! Kerri sent me daily pictures and kept me informed on Ollie’s routine and activities. I highly recommend Kerri and her family.”
“Sonia and Jeffrey took excellent care of Luna and we are so very grateful for their attention to her. We had a very long trip and knew Luna was in very good hands. This is our 3rd time using their service and highly recommend them!”
“Shekenia is amazing. My babies love her and they were well taken care of. The consistent updates and pictures were awesome. Thank you so much for taking care of my babies as if they were your own.”
“Gary took phenomenal care of our Winston. With daily pictures and updates we were reassured he was in the right hands. We will absolutely call Gary again for future trips out of town.”
“Carol and her family were very welcoming of Remy and they took him in right at the last minute as another dog sitter did not work out due to other dogs being a little aggressive. Carol and her family took a risk having a new dog that has not been introduced to their dog and I am so grateful of that. When I came back to pick up Remy they had nothing but compliments of how well behaved my dog was as I knew my dog is very well behaved and gets along with everybody. I highly recommend Carol and her family for anybody looking for a dog sitter.”
“This was our first time using Miriam to board our fur baby Pepper for the weekend. We were a little nervous since we had a regular sitter for years until we moved a couple months ago. She helped us have peace of mind by showing us where our dog would be staying as well as asking us questions that would help her to care for Pepper. Miriam was very transparent and also introduced us to her doggie 🐶. Everything went smoothly and she kept us updated throughout the weekend. We were also pleasantly surprised that our dog was not as nervous as we thought she would be and was able to adapt quickly. Definitely recommend Miriam and will be using her services again.”
“Haven and her family were wonderful! They were so friendly and welcoming when we dropped our dog off and she sent great updates throughout our trip. Her dog was so friendly and sweet also. We will definitely book with Haven again.”
“They took good care of my dog and he got walks and cuddles! I love pics and that helped a lot, and he also got along great with their dog so also a relief!”

“Nicole is a gem. She said Chewee was a little nervous at first, but warmed up to her. She even sent a video to show her interacting with Chewee. I greatly appreciate her patience with our precious girl. We will have her over again tomorrow!”
“We are so happy that we found Marissa to check in on our sweet cat Spooky while we were away. I’m usually very nervous, and we were going to be very far away for over a week, but after meeting Marissa, we were both very comfortable and confident that Spooky would be in good hands. We looked forward to the photos Marissa sent us each day of Spooky playing, and we returned to a happy and healthy kitty. Thank you for your efficient communication and for taking wonderful care of our baby!”

“Skirla (aka Sorel) is great! Sushi normally barks and growls at everyone but not her! I feel comfortable leaving my baby with her for my week long vacation and will book again when the need arises.”
About: What sets me apart is that I’m not just a pet lover. I’m a vet student in the making. Caring for animals isn’t just a hobby for me, it’s part of my future career. I take the time to really get to know each pet’s personality and needs, whether that’s helping a puppy burn off energy and learn basic manners, or giving a senior pet the extra patience, comfort, and gentle care they deserve. Because I’m passionate about animal health, I pay close attention to things like eating habits, energy levels, and behavior changes, so I can spot if something seems off and communicate that to owners right away. I’m also comfortable handling a variety of breeds, temperaments, and special needs.nFor me, pet sitting isn’t just “watching” animals it’s making sure they’re safe, happy, and thriving, while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in caring, capable hands. Pet care is something I fit naturally into my day. My mornings usually start with feeding, fresh water, and a walk or some playtime to make sure pets start the day happy and active. If I have classes, I plan my schedule so I can come by for potty breaks, belly rubs, and some one on one time in between. In the evenings, I love taking longer walks, heading to a park, or just spending time playing or relaxing together. Weekends are perfect for extra adventures like exploring trails, visiting pet-friendly spots, or giving them some extra grooming and attention. For me, pets aren’t something I try to “fit in” around my day they’re part of it. I love making sure they get the care, attention, and love they need, no matter how busy my schedule gets. Whether in my own home or in a client’s home, my priority is to create a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment for pets. I pay close attention to a pet’s personality, habits, and routines so I can adapt my care to their comfort level, whether that means providing a quiet, calm environment for shy pets or engaging in active play for more energetic ones. I also make it a point to send regular updates, photos, and notes to owners so they feel reassured and connected while they’re away. In my own home, I designate safe areas for rest, play, and meals, and I make sure fresh water is always available. In a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely everything from where the pet sleeps to how they like their walks so the pet’s routine is not disrupted. My goal is for every pet to feel secure, cared for, and happy, no matter the environment.
“Had to find someone super last minute, and Lorraine was very responsive and great at communicating! Nairobi, my cockapoo, had a very pleasant experience, and I will definitely be a repeat customer! Highly recommend for anyone considering!”
“Bella just love to visit Sonia and Jeff and their dog Abby. She runs to Jeff with tail wagging when I drop her off. It is her second best home and I’m so happy that she is well cared for when I’m at work.”
“Kerri and her husband are amazing dog sitters. They sent me pictures and videos during the day and I could see that Ollie had a great time. I highly recommend Kerri and will bring Ollie back when I need another doggy day care.”
“Booked last minute when previous sitter backed out night before doggy day care was to begin. They also have dogs which worked out even better since my pup loves to play. This family is my “go to” when I come up to visit. Can’t thank them enough for helping us for this New Year holiday.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life since I was a kid. I love dogs and my whole family is very dog friendly. I currently have two of my own dogs, Blizzard my 5 year old Goldendoodle and Boomer my 8 year old Beagle. These guys are my best friends! Since rescuing my Goldendoodle Blizzard, I’ve also learned to bathe & groom him, a special skill that takes practice and patience. I work from home, so I am able to take care of the dogs and be very flexible with their walking, feeding and bathroom needs. At my house, dogs are welcome on the furniture and on the bed at night but I will respect other owners obedience/rules while caring for their dogs. We have a lot of the room in the house which even has a fun room with toy mountain, a collection of hundreds of dog toys that everyone is welcome to play with! I have a big backyard but it is not fenced in. Instead, I prefer to walk the dogs on leashes/leads or attach them to the dog-run line I have running across the backyard for playtime! I would love the opportunity to watch your dog(s) and can be flexible with short-term or long-term stays plus other accommodations. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own and give them a lot of love and care for their entire stay! I work from home, therefore I can accommodate many different types of schedules based on a dogs needs. Frequent walks, feeding or medication is no challenge throughout each day/night. Any dog who comes to stay with us will be loved and cared for as if they were my own. Same goes if I am to come care for your dogs at your home. They will get plenty of love and attention with play-time and companionship!

I love to work and would like to help my family more. This way I can be at home loving on my son and also your fur babies! We just moved into our forever home due to my husband being retired Navy.

We will take daily walks, play outdoors, and have lots of play time and cuddles.
About: I have raised many different types of dogs for 15+ years. For the last 5 years, I have housed many different animals in need. I have trained puppies, as well as nervous, and abused dogs. I make sure my home is a very welcome environment for animals of all kinds. Like my husband likes to say, I want a petting zoo in life. I currently work part-time in a pawn shop and full time mom to an adorable little toddler. We love being able to be around and care for animals as much as we can. I go on holidays maybe once or twice a year so I’m always around willing to help train or even just be a companion to your furry friend while you’re away I have an open yard with plenty of space to run around. I also have crates within the house just in case they need to be crated too. I have 3 adult dogs that roam free and are very friendly, as well as 3 puppies, and a 2 cats inside my house as well too. But it’s very rare my cats will come out during the day if I’m housing a dog inside.
About: I’ve grown up around animals and had several throughout the last 33 years. I really only have experience with dogs and cats, I currently have 5 cats and 2 dog. As a pet caretaker with a flexible schedule, I can easily adapt my day around each pet’s needs. I’m able to plan feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins at times that work best for both the pet and their owner. My flexibility allows me to provide consistent, reliable care—even if the owner’s routine changes—while making sure the pet maintains a comfortable, steady daily rhythm. This approach helps me give attentive, personalized care throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly two year old female German Shepherd loves to play. And also a male rat terrier mix. I can also crate if needed. Also lots of treats and toys!

“Melissa has been wonderful with my cocker spaniel! My puppy was so excited to see her when she came to pick her up for boarding for our second time! She doesn't react like that to many people! Obviously she had been well loved while she was in Melissa's care earlier! I really appreciated the update texts and photos that she sends! I plan to use her again in the near future!”
“Joanna is a caring and very knowledgeable professional. It is clear from the first minute that she has a real talent and heart for animals. She worked with our finicky little girl and lo and behold found a food she loves. Being an only dog, Jamie loved learning how to be part of a pack and also appreciated having a cat, like her pal at home, to be with. Joanna not only put up with our little diva's idiosyncrasies, she enjoyed them. We, and Jamie, look forward to having another "adventure" with Joanna.”
“Valerie is amazing with my baby. She always sends pics. I call her my baby's stepmom😁. Valerie is always my 1st choice sitter. When she's not available, I'm devastated 💔. My baby absolutely loves her. My baby is blind, but when he hears her voice, he gets so excited.”
“Amanda was great with our handsome Finn! We had a last minute matter come up out of state and our regular sitter was out of town as well. Luckily after searching and searching I was able to find Amanda! We have a 7ish year old Doberman who is super loving and quirky and she took such great care of him. I’m so happy that I did not have to worry as she was sending pics and updates the entire time. Finn came home happy and healthy and we will definitely be using her services in the future. Thanks Amanda!!!”
“This is the second time we’ve had Sharon watch our pups and I will continue to rebook with her! I can go on vacation without a single worry because she truly treats them as if they’re her own. So thankful we found her!”
“Lauren and Jeremy are a great couple who immediately made us feel comfortable leaving our dog Millie. You can tell they love having dogs and making others they are watching feel right at home. Lauren sent us a pic and kept us up to date on how Millie was doing. So happy that we have found great care for Millie when we need it!!”
“Kerri and her family took such good care of my dog Ollie. He came back home a happy boy! Kerri sent me daily pictures and kept me informed on Ollie’s routine and activities. I highly recommend Kerri and her family.”
“Sonia and Jeffrey took excellent care of Luna and we are so very grateful for their attention to her. We had a very long trip and knew Luna was in very good hands. This is our 3rd time using their service and highly recommend them!”
“Gary took phenomenal care of our Winston. With daily pictures and updates we were reassured he was in the right hands. We will absolutely call Gary again for future trips out of town.”
“Carol and her family were very welcoming of Remy and they took him in right at the last minute as another dog sitter did not work out due to other dogs being a little aggressive. Carol and her family took a risk having a new dog that has not been introduced to their dog and I am so grateful of that. When I came back to pick up Remy they had nothing but compliments of how well behaved my dog was as I knew my dog is very well behaved and gets along with everybody. I highly recommend Carol and her family for anybody looking for a dog sitter.”
“This was our first time using Miriam to board our fur baby Pepper for the weekend. We were a little nervous since we had a regular sitter for years until we moved a couple months ago. She helped us have peace of mind by showing us where our dog would be staying as well as asking us questions that would help her to care for Pepper. Miriam was very transparent and also introduced us to her doggie 🐶. Everything went smoothly and she kept us updated throughout the weekend. We were also pleasantly surprised that our dog was not as nervous as we thought she would be and was able to adapt quickly. Definitely recommend Miriam and will be using her services again.”
“Haven and her family were wonderful! They were so friendly and welcoming when we dropped our dog off and she sent great updates throughout our trip. Her dog was so friendly and sweet also. We will definitely book with Haven again.”
“They took good care of my dog and he got walks and cuddles! I love pics and that helped a lot, and he also got along great with their dog so also a relief!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job caring for our baby Enzo. She lives on a farm which my baby likes very much. He can play freely on such plenty of space. She sent pictures and videos of how he was doing. She's very attentive to his needs and he seemed comfortable! We will definitely use her again! Thanks, Jessica!”
About: I've owned and been around dogs my whole life, as well as chickens, hamsters, rats, etc(which I am also open to caring for your exotics). I currently have a 3 you golden doodle and a 9 month old boxer and a 12 yo cat as well as children which I feel gives me a superior ability to care for living things. I'm a stay at home parent so I have a large availability to watch your pets in my home as well as do drop in visits for you. We have two inside dogs who are fairly well trained and stay in our fenced in yard when they're out to potty and have plenty of space to run around.
“Mandi was wonderful to work with, and Rina came home tired! It was so nice to get personal texts and pictures and hear how Rina was doing while we were away. Would definitely book again.”
“Melissa is friendly and easy to communicate with! I was worried about my dog getting along with hers but they all did well together and I will be rebooking another stay for my dog with Melissa soon!”
