“Robert did a fantastic job taking care of our dog frankie! I can highly recommend him for anyone looking for competent and empathetic care for their pet in Wilmington!!”

“Meagan and her family were wonderful with my girl, Sookie! Sookie needs to be around confident dogs and Maegan's two were exactly that. From the first moment we met, I knew that "we had a match" for my dog. All the pictures and updates from Maegan were reassuring and it was clear to see that things were going very well. She clearly loves all dogs and is very attentive and in tune with their moods and actions. Her home and fenced yard were secure, safe, comfortable and very welcoming. My one concern going into this was that Maegan has small children and my dog hasn't been around many. But I expressed my unnecessary concern and learned that her kids are as professional, sensitive and loving of dogs as their parents. Five stars doesn't seem like enough!”

“Stephanie is an absolute delight, compassionate, and well qualified. Our labradoodle is overly anxious and he was completely comfortable in her home. We often received texts and pictures to assure us that Cooper was content. We will definitely use Stephanie for future boardings.”

“My husband and I highly recommend Desi, she took great care of our girl Lexi while we were away on vacation. Desi sent pictures, videos and kept us up to date on how Lexi was doing. She also took the time to talk with us and show us around where our girl would be playing and sleeping. Desi loved on our girl and made her feel at home! We will be calling on her again...”


“We had a great experience with Taylor and his family. They shared photos and updates while we were away and our pup even made some new friends while he was there. Would absolutely recommend!”


“Kate and her family are the best! It was my second time dropping my dog off with her, and she takes such good care her! Marley is older and I often worry about her, but I feel at ease when she’s at Kate’s. Her kids are great with Marley, too!”
“Amy was awesome! It was my first time leaving Bailey with anyone other than family. I expected to be nervous but I felt very confident and at ease, especially when Amy sent me photos and videos of Bailey hanging out with her and her family. Bailey did great and I will definitely be calling Amy again when I need a sitter!”

“Angela is the best! Our Maggie was well cared for in Angela's home for a week. Angela's daily updates & pictures kept us worry free. We are so happy with the care that Maggie received that we have already booked Angela again. We highly recommend Angela for any pet sitting needs!”

“My dog stayed with Sue-Ling, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took such wonderful care of my dog. Kind, patient, and really attentive to her needs. It was clear from the start that Sue-Ling truly loves animals and treats them like her own. There was a small health issue while I was away, but Sue-Ling handled everything calmly and responsibly. She kept me updated right away and made sure my dog was comfortable and safe. I felt completely reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Sue-Ling gave to my dog, and I would absolutely trust her to look after her again anytime. She’s amazing!”

“Lara was great!! Moxie seemed to warm right up to her and her family. She kept me updated with pics and video. I will definitely be contacting her in the future for any doggy sleepover needs!!! Thanks again Lara!!!!”

“Highly recommend Kyle, he was very communicative and took very good care of our dogs. Our dogs were happy and tired out by pick up time, we will definitely be booking again in the future!”

“Boy did Vincent fall in love at Helena’s! I felt so at ease on my trip. I got great photos of Vincent doing all the things. He can not wait to go back I am sure.”


“Hilary took such great care of our girl! Sadie has a lot of quirks and takes time to warm up and Hilary was patient and understanding. I had a lot of peace of mind while we were away on our trip knowing she was well taken care of!”

“Mia was amazing with my anxious dog Reya! She was very communicative, took great care of her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would recommend Mia to anyone!”

“Cleo had such a great time with Kim and her family. Kim was a great communicator and kept me Informed on Cleos’s stay. Seems like Cleo was treated like one of the family members…lots of cuddles and walks. Thank you, Kim. We will be back.”

“Hannah was the perfect sitter for my toy poodle. Very upbeat, lively, kind and caring. My dog clearly enjoyed staying with her and I would heartily recommend her to anyone looking for wonderful pet sitter.”

About: I understand how nerve wracking it can be to have someone new care for your baby! I’ve been caring for pups for roughly 10 years. I’m typically the go-to sitter for my friends but and family. I treat your pup as my own. I ensure they stick to their normal routine and get plenty of exercise and love so they’re comfortable! I work remote and have my own friendly golden I take on my walks throughout the day, so I am flexible with my schedule. Week days and weekends work for me. I have my own pup, so your pup will have company and I will treat yours as my own! I am happy to crate if needed or follow any extra safety protocols you need. I am confident in administering medicine your pup needs as well. I will send daily updates and photos to ease your mind! Pups are welcome on furniture (with your permission) so they can feel cozy and at home.
“Yueqian is very professional and experienced in taking care of dogs. Wren spent a wonderful time at the dog park with Yueqian and her three dogs, and enjoyed a walk in another park as well. Yueqian also sent me some photos of Wren to give me an update. When I picked up Wren, she looks happy, showing no signs of separation anxiety even though it was her first daycare experience. I highly recommend Yueqian for anyone looking for a caring and professional dog daycare service. Thank you for taking such great care of Wren!”


About: Years of firsthand experience have equipped me with an innate understanding of dogs' needs, behaviors, and preferences, enabling me to create a nurturing and engaging environment for my furry visitors. Working from home allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine, ensuring that my furry companions receive ample attention and care throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I can prioritize regular walks, play sessions, and feeding times to meet their needs. Whether it's taking short breaks for cuddle sessions or incorporating outdoor activities into my lunch break, your pup will never be far from my side. What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my extensive experience coupled with the ideal setup of a fenced-in backyard and my loyal canine companion. My backyard serves as a safe and stimulating space where dogs can play, exercise, and socialize under my watchful eye, enhancing their overall well-being and enjoyment during their stay. Having a furry companion of my own adds an extra layer of comfort and familiarity for visiting dogs, fostering a sense of camaraderie and companionship that sets my dog-sitting service apart from the rest.
“My Benji boy lovedddd going to Aunna’s house for daycare! He would run right up to her and not even look back as I was leaving. I definitely felt at ease leaving him with her! Highly recommend!”

“Taylor and his family were SO sweet and I could not be more grateful for them! Taylor sent lots of pictures and I could tell Beaux had a great time. We will definitely be booking with Taylor next time we’re in the area.”

About: I grew up having cats and reptiles but I've always wanted a dog to have around. I want to experience what it would be like to have a dog so I can finally own one of my own one day. I love animals I wanted to become a vet when I was younger. I have a tortoise right now which is a good pet because they can live very long. I want to eventually own a farm and raise farm animal's when I get older. I use to also own fish and have a gecko as well. My children also take to animal's very well because they are kind and gentle souls like me. I want to provide an excellent service to anyone that needs it.
“Laura was wonderful and so were her pups!! Will definitely book with her again. Great backyard that my dog loved and she handled his separation anxiety really well. Buddy loves her and her little fam!”

About: I have over 16+ years of pet sitting experience. Ever since I was in middle school, I have been providing pet care services to neighbors, coworkers, etc. In fact, I was the designated pet sitter of my current work place where I would stay over at their homes while they were out of town. In addition, I have grown up with rescue dogs, and those who have behavioral issues. I am skilled with providing medicine to dogs as well. I do not have experience training puppies. I work from home fully with very little travel which would be set ahead of time not to disrupt the care of the dog, and can be flexible in terms of timings. Usually, I meet with the owner and dog beforehand. This ensures trust as I can get a way of the home, the dog can meet me, and show first hand any specific instructions.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I currently am a part time student, I got out the navy a year ago. So I am taking time to myself after all those years in the service and so I have a very flexible schedule. I will follow all rules or accommodations for the pets especially in there home. I will always provide a safe experience and keep the dogs a number one priority

“Andrea was awesome-- her schedule was flexible as we reached out to her on short notice, and after the stay our dogs came home happy and tired. We have fitness trackers on our dogs collars, and it showed they were active all day-- in fact, more active at Andrea's than they usually are at other sitters. Andrea has a few dogs and chickens-- so there was plenty to keep our dogs occupied over the weekend. I'd recommend Andrea again in a heartbeat and hopefully we'll be using her in the future as well.”

“Andrew and Erin, I’ve been the best pet sitters we could ask for! Our little multi-Pooh, Chloe, absolutely loves them, and has a great time with them! They are very communicative, kind and send lots of pictures and updates. It makes leaving her so much easier knowing that she’s having a great time while I’m gone.”
