About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 25 years and have always had a deep love for animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to giving you peace of mind by providing attentive, compassionate care and regular updates while you’re away. As a teacher, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to give pets the attention they deserve. During the school year, I’m available before and after school, on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. In the summer, my schedule is much more open, giving me extra time for walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it with frequent leashed walks, outdoor play, and lots of one-on-one attention. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“We had a wonderful initial meet and greet with Carol. Our dog doesn't take to everyone but immediately took to Carol. We dropped our dog off feeling very good about Carol. While we were away Carol sent pictures of our dog relaxing on the couch looking very happy and healthy. When we returned our dog was obviously happy to see us. Carol said the two of them had a nice time together. I would definitely recommend Carol and we will use her again in the future when needed.”
“Echo has never had a better time! He came home exhausted. Angelina took great care of him and sent pictures regularly. We will definitely bring Echo to hang out with Angelina and her dog, Jasmine, in the future.”

“Lisa was amazing! We had to make last minute adjustments for a trip out of the country for my Ella to stay with her. She was patient and understanding. The best part is when I went to pick my girl up after not seeing her for 10 days, she was still herself. It's obvious that Lisa has a love for animals. I would recommend to anyone :)”
“Luz, and her family, are exceptional. I will be requesting her every time we need a sitter for my dog. She was attentive and affectionate. My dog Maggie is rarely without us because the few times we have left her with others she gets very depressed. For the first time ever Maggie was actually missing her sitter. She laid by the door when we got home waiting for , what we now call, her other family. She was made to feel at home. I highly recommend Luz to anyone who has a furry family member that they want to ensure is safe, secure, and happy.”
“Max and his family always take great care of Cali. Max sends me photos and keeps our very active dog busy on long walks, hikes and trips to the beach. We have used Max for boarding multiple times and never have to worry about Cali as his family showers her with love and attention. We can’t wait to book Max again.”
“Nicole is always available and flexible when I need her. Zara gets plenty of exercise, she is always tuckered out when she visits Nicole’s. Nicole understands dog behavior so she doesn’t get upset when Zara gets a wild hair and eats her shoes.Her family understands they are not responsible for Zara’s care so they help out when they can by loading and unloading Zara’s gear in the car.”

She also went above and beyond with taking my mail in and lowering and raising my blinds daily so my cats can look out the window on their perches. let's not forget the litter boxes. She did it all. I absolutely would recommend Kerri and will have her again to take care of the cats in the future.”

I had a camera trained on the food bowl because I'm kind of a freak about my cat, And I could see Breanna's feet walking back and forth, looking for Gurdy and seeking her out. Gurdy was well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Breanna and will utilize her services in the future!”

He took the time to call us beforehand to ask about how to care for our dogs and kept us updated throughout our trip. We’ll definitely be giving him a call next time we are away!”

She took plenty of pics and kept me posted throughout the visit. I also want to mention how patient she was with my special need fur-baby Duke.

Love and affection is a must when watching any dog. No matter where the sitting is taking place, your dog will be cared for!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and love every minute of it! I also have experience fostering dogs for many years, which has taught me how to help them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I enjoy giving dogs the attention and care they need while their family is away. As a stay-at-home mom, my schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I have years of experience with dogs and love making sure each one feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. With a secure fenced yard, years of fostering experience, and two friendly resident pups, your furry friend will feel right at home, loved, safe, and cared for. 🐾❤️
“From our initial conversation I felt so comfortable with Jessica. She's very warm, kind and personable and my pup Xerxes enjoyed his time with her so much, he didnt want to leave! I would definitely hire Jessica again and highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 25 years and have always had a deep love for animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to giving you peace of mind by providing attentive, compassionate care and regular updates while you’re away. As a teacher, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to give pets the attention they deserve. During the school year, I’m available before and after school, on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. In the summer, my schedule is much more open, giving me extra time for walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it with frequent leashed walks, outdoor play, and lots of one-on-one attention. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Echo has never had a better time! He came home exhausted. Angelina took great care of him and sent pictures regularly. We will definitely bring Echo to hang out with Angelina and her dog, Jasmine, in the future.”
“What a guy!! Great communication, super sweet, and you can tell how much he loves pups :) our dogs are a little quirky and he took them with stride and they loved their stay. Great yard, perfect window spot, and the nicest guy :) will definitely be rebooking next time we need!”
“Luz, and her family, are exceptional. I will be requesting her every time we need a sitter for my dog. She was attentive and affectionate. My dog Maggie is rarely without us because the few times we have left her with others she gets very depressed. For the first time ever Maggie was actually missing her sitter. She laid by the door when we got home waiting for , what we now call, her other family. She was made to feel at home. I highly recommend Luz to anyone who has a furry family member that they want to ensure is safe, secure, and happy.”
“Max and his family always take great care of Cali. Max sends me photos and keeps our very active dog busy on long walks, hikes and trips to the beach. We have used Max for boarding multiple times and never have to worry about Cali as his family showers her with love and attention. We can’t wait to book Max again.”
“Nicole is always available and flexible when I need her. Zara gets plenty of exercise, she is always tuckered out when she visits Nicole’s. Nicole understands dog behavior so she doesn’t get upset when Zara gets a wild hair and eats her shoes.Her family understands they are not responsible for Zara’s care so they help out when they can by loading and unloading Zara’s gear in the car.”
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages. I have grown accustomed to a range of feeding, walking, grooming and play schedules and also have experience administering medication. I can handle dogs around other pets, acting to keep everyone involved comfortable and safe. I have lots of free time after classes and only a part time work schedule in the summer. I am able to make time morning, afternoon and night! Until August 15th, I will be living with two roommates. One of which have a cat and a dog who are very friendly. I aim to keep boarding to a minimum until I move into my new space where I will have a lot more room and there would be no. concern with pets interacting and living with other pets that they do not know.
“We were nervous about leaving Sammie with someone we didn’t know, but when we did the meet and greet with Tina we knew she was the right person to watch Sammie. She answered all our questions, asked good questions, and she genuinely wanted to make sure Sammie would have the best stay while in her care. We received updates on Sammie’s walks, cuddle time, and if she was eating her food. We also received pictures of Sammie which put a smile on our faces. We were reassured that we had made the right choice. We would absolutely work with Tina again. 😊”
“Samantha was great! We communicated every day that we were away. She would give us a daily morning text to let us know how our pups spent the night. Felt very comfortable leaving our dogs and plan on using her again when we take another trip later this month.”
About: I love all animals, even reptiles! When I was a teenager I worked at a kennel for a summer job and fell in love with every breed of dog. I’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits and small critters my entire life and even backyard chickens! My current pup is a senior boxer/Shepard mix. I am comfortable giving medication and caring for senior and special needs pets. I have a full time job so am available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. I work local so if pet sitting at my house, I can check in at lunch time. I have a fenced in backyard and crates if needed. My senior dog is chill and great with cats and small caged pets would be safe with her.
