“This was the first time I was apart from my dog for more than two days and the first day that I left the dog with a non relative. It was great to have someone as responsive and responsible as Vincent taking care of my dog. It is clear that Vincent loves dogs and does a great job taking care of them. When I picked my dog up it was clear he had a good week, was healthy, well fed and very happy.”
“Bhavani handles puppies like a pet owner with care and affection. Bhavani took great care of Benny. She regularly sent pics and videos, which was very reassuring. She spent time playing with him and made sure he was well cared for throughout. I especially appreciated how she helped Benny socialize—he was happy and comfortable. Would definitely recommend her as a dogsitter.”
“Jacqueline and her family were absolutely amazing! I always get a little worried about leaving Sammy behind when flying overseas but I was able to relax because I was updated everyday with pictures and messages. He was truly loved and treated as a part of their family. Thank you Jacqueline for taking such good care of my Sammy 💕 I would definitely book again and would recommend her!”
“I was so happy to find Yanina. I have two older dogs (an 11 year old ~50 lb retriever mix and a 12 year old ~80 lb bully mix). Normally folks are intimidated by the size with no inclination to get to know my dogs. Yanina and her hubby were so kind to my babies and treated them so well. I got some fantastic photos and videos and my dogs were smiling and so happy!”
“Vernisha, did an excellent job from the beginning of our communication until the moment we picked him up. She kept us informed throughout our getaway and sent photos and videos, including updates from the park when she took our dog for a walk. We really loved the way she cared for him and kept us updated on his well-being. We highly recommend her!”
“I needed very last minute boarding for my 12 year old beagle/bulldog mix and Dhruvit was available on short notice and took great care of my dog while we were gone. He kept us updated and sent multiple pictures every day so we knew he was well taken care of. I would definitely book with Dhruvit again!”

“Nicolas (Cole) was great to communicate with. He gave detailed feedback on how our dogs were doing while we were home. He took the initiative to find our cat and made sure he got attention too ! Coke’s puts his heart in his work with the pets. We will gladly request to have him return.”
“Alison was amazing! She communicated well, sent so many pictures and was super consistent. I have a pesky cat in the bunch that doesn’t like other people and she wasn’t afraid to do what needed to be done. I can’t adequately explain how great it is to know your animals are taken care of while you’re away. Great peace of mind.”
“Lin was amazing with Simba and Sydney! She took such great care of them, played with them, and treated them like her own. She even brought over a can of wet food for them to try, which was so thoughtful. I really appreciated all the updates and the love she gave them. She also brought a letter from her cat, Wednesday, and my cats loved it! I came home to two very happy cats. Thank you so much, Lin! I’ll definitely book with you again.”

“Elizabeth was so good with our little monster! She spent time to get him used to her since he's a bit feisty. In the end, he let her pet him and give the insulin with almost no issue. She's a really wonderful person and I highly recommend her as a sitter.”
About: I’ve had cats since 2018 and now have three of them, so I’ve honestly been through it all. One of my cats is an absolute crackhead. He loves bleach, (learned early and just went natural right after) string, feathers, and somehow always finds a way to eat things that aren't edible. He even likes my spicy chips! I also adopted a senior street cat with his own set habits who is constantly on the hunt for food. Living with them meant learning exactly how to completely house proof a home. Then there's my sweet girl, who loves to hunt and bring me "gifts." Do they totally love each other? Nope, they barely get along. But handling three completely different, strong personalities means I know how to stay one step ahead of any cat to keep them safe, happy, and out of trouble
“Jessica is an excellent pet sitter, she was very lovely with our Bella 😸 ❤️ she took care of Bella very well 🤩 I will definitely call her again! She left us a nice handmade present!”
“Laura provided excellent service and communication regarding our cats while we were gone for 9 days. My 2 senior cats need daily medication (oral pills and topical cream) and Laura was comfortable with this situation. When we booked our vacation, months ago, they didn't need any medication, so finding the right sitter leading up to our time away was stressful for me, but Laura was great and helped me feel more at ease while on our big family vacation. It turned out that one of my cats would hide with each visit, which I'm sure was annoying to manage, but Laura stuck with it. We can't thank her enough for caring for our aging cats!”
“Katie took fantastic care of Raku for a week while we were out of town. She provided plenty of play and gave detailed updates with lots of photos included. Looking forward to rebooking!”

I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own so you never have to worry while you're away. If your dog is more energetic and prefers running instead of walks, then I will certainly do that.

About: I have experience training and caring for dogs and cats. I Specialize in dogs with hearing issues/ deafness. Both of my dogs are graduates of multiple behavioral and obedience classes resulting in our therapy certifications. We visit a multitude of schools, hospitals and other wellness centers. All volunteer work done by my companions and myself is strictly a passion and non profit. I was inspired by a visitation to my grandfather by a golden retriever, when my grandfather was in the hospital for open heart surgery. Seeing my grandfathers reaction to a dog visitation while he was in the hospital was a monumental moment for me that further inspired my passion and drive to work with dogs. I currently work early mornings for a government agency as an officer which gives me a lot of available free time at off times of the day and week. Making me readily available to care for your pets . A fenced yard is a must. My dogs are trained and raised to be curious and outgoing, thus a fence is needed. Although my dogs don’t need a leash, I find it’s necessary to generally have a leash attached. I allow my dogs to be curious, and put there noses where many wouldn’t generally allow. It’s important to always cover your stove switches/ burners with dog safety devices!. But ultimately I strongly believe in allowing your dogs and pets to be curious and open to learning. Dogs and cats alike are much smarter then most realize, and I believe this is there first time living as well.. and deserve the best experiences life has to offer!
About: I have grown up with pets my entire life. Born into a cat family, that soon became a cat and dog family, I’ve learned the proper ways to care for animals and treat each one I see as if they’re family. The same way animals make me happy, I want to make them happy. I currently work on a hybrid schedule, going in the office twice a week Mondays Thursdays, and working from home the rest of the week. My fiancé works from home all 5 weekdays and takes care of things during those 9-5 hours until I come home :) I pay attention to what the animal wants. I offer playfulness and affection, but never forcing it in the cases where the animal just needs company. I make sure the pet is walked and eating on a schedule given.
About: I have extensive experience in pet care. I volunteered for two years at an animal shelter, where I learned to handle different types of dogs and understand their needs. Additionally, I have always had dogs at home, which has allowed me to develop a deep bond and understanding of each pet’s needs. I am 100% available to care for pets. I have a flexible schedule and can adjust as needed to ensure your pet receives all the attention and care it deserves. I always prioritize the safety and well-being of pets, whether in my home or the client’s home. At my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment, with enough space for play and rest. When caring for pets in the client’s home, I follow all provided guidelines to ensure the pet feels at home, maintaining their routine and offering lots of love and attention. In both cases, I make sure to supervise at all times and provide a danger-free environment.

“Priscilla was excellent with my very reactive (but sweet) beagle. I get nervous with people walking my dog because I love him so much and he can be A LOT to handle for some, but I could tell right away that Priscilla is nice and patient. She’s a clear animal lover. I just had a newborn so it’s tough to walk both baby and dog at the same time so happy to have her during this season of life to show my dog some love. He came back in a super good mood and I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Elizabeth is a great Pet walker and sitter. She has walked Toby every day for the past week, she is always on time to pick him up and he is always ready and happy to see her. After his walk he goes peacefully to sleep for a few hours so he is definitely getting exercise during the walk. She is flexible with the schedule and is open to changes. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you!”

I’m comfortable with all age groups Whether it's daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping your pet company while you're away, I bring patience, experience, and genuine affection to every visit. I understand how important it is to feel your pet is in good hands--and that's exactly what I strive to provide.
“Laura is very professional and great with animals! My girl Casey had surgery 5 months ago so she doesn't walk as well as she used to and Laura was nothing but gentle and kind with her. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog walker. I'm moving otherwise I would of kept on using her. Thanks Laura!”
“My husband, Anthony, and I have used Stacy’s services a few different times, both on and off Rover, for long vacations as well as short check-ins/walks. She has been a big help each and every time, making sure our pups were happy while also keeping us informed of how they were doing, which made us very comfortable and happy as well. Just yesterday, we asked her for a last minute booking because one of our family members, who usually watches our boys, suddenly became ill and told us she wouldn’t be able to come by to walk them while my husband and I attended an all-day event. I messaged Stacy right away and she responded very quickly, saying she’d be more than happy to help us out – even with such short notice! I couldn’t ask for a more friendly or professional sitter!! We will definitely be using Stacy’s services again in the near future.”

“This was the first time I was apart from my dog for more than two days and the first day that I left the dog with a non relative. It was great to have someone as responsive and responsible as Vincent taking care of my dog. It is clear that Vincent loves dogs and does a great job taking care of them. When I picked my dog up it was clear he had a good week, was healthy, well fed and very happy.”
“Bhavani handles puppies like a pet owner with care and affection. Bhavani took great care of Benny. She regularly sent pics and videos, which was very reassuring. She spent time playing with him and made sure he was well cared for throughout. I especially appreciated how she helped Benny socialize—he was happy and comfortable. Would definitely recommend her as a dogsitter.”
“I was so happy to find Yanina. I have two older dogs (an 11 year old ~50 lb retriever mix and a 12 year old ~80 lb bully mix). Normally folks are intimidated by the size with no inclination to get to know my dogs. Yanina and her hubby were so kind to my babies and treated them so well. I got some fantastic photos and videos and my dogs were smiling and so happy!”

“I highly recommend Saty for pet care! My precious dog stayed with them while my job took me out of state for a few days. My dog is older and having an option for him to stay in a loving home environment vs a kennel is ideal. I received periodic updates with pictures and videos. Additionally, Saty was very accommodating when my flight coming back was delayed. I will be reaching out to them again when my travels take me out of town and I require loving pet care for my dog.”

“Primavera was absolutely amazing with Max! From the moment she started caring for him, I could tell how much she genuinely cared about making sure he felt comfortable, safe, and loved. She took the time to get to know Max, understand his personality, routines, and needs, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. One thing I especially appreciated was how communicative she was. She regularly sent photos and updates, letting me know how Max was doing and keeping me informed about his behavior and activities. As a dog mom, those updates meant the world to me and helped me feel connected to him even when I couldn’t be there. It’s clear that Primavera truly loves animals and goes above and beyond to provide personalized care. Knowing that Max was in such attentive and caring hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away. I would not hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. Thank you, Primavera, for taking such wonderful care of my boy! 🐾❤️”

“Akshay seems to love animals, he was very warm with my dog Billy and sent me pictures of him every day about his activities when we were on vacations. He also took the food and elements we provided like toys and food holder. The best was that Billy could play and get fun with his can "Sirius" which was very sweet. Also we got a pleasant surprise: Billy got a Christmas gift from the entire family during Christmas day! I definitely recommend Akshay for boarding your dog!”
