Highly-rated overnight sitters - Valhalla
“Kevin and his family were very sweet with my pup. She was nervous and anxious being away from us but they made her feel less nervous and made her stay as comfortable as possible. Highly recommended!”
“The best person that has watched my dog by far. She considered his quirks and made sure he was well taken care of. She sent me lots of cute photos and I felt very safe with her having my dog. 100% will be boarding my dog there again!”
“Diana is friendly, caring, responsible and she is a great dog sitter. She sent photos and videos everyday and went above and beyond to take care of my shiba inu. In addition, her dog Wendy was a wonderdul playmate for my shiba. She provided a safe, clean and fun environment for the care of my dog.”
“We’re very happy with Liza. She was very conscientious and loving with our dog. From the very start, we felt completely comforted knowing that he was in such good hands. She provided daily updates with pictures and videos throughout our 10-day trip. We will definitely book her again!”
“Wow, Karine and Ryan were such attentive caregivers for our small pup, Mikoh. We felt totally at ease leaving him with them for a week while we traveled outside the country. Karine was meticulous in caring for Mikoh, and sent multiple updates daily informing me of Mikoh's play times, eating habits, and overall wellbeing. It was also nice knowing that Mikoh was having some nice social time with other pups while we were away. I would wholeheartedly recommend their care for your pup, and look forward to working with them again in the future. Thank you!!”
“Brittany was wonderful with my dog Stark. She took time to get to know him before he spent the week with her, introducing him to her dog, which was especially important as my dog can take a little while to warm up to people and pets. He went immediately to her! She listened to what I said about my dog's fears, as he is a rescue and he became part of the pack of dogs she was watching because of how great she was with him. He had a wonderful week and I loved getting picture and video updates.”
“Our pup had an awesome time! We got tons of photos, Robert was very communicative. We feel very lucky to have found Robert and plan on leaving our pup with him again next time we are away!”
“First time boarding with Randi and it was an incredibly smooth experience. Randi is extremely flexible and was a life saver for when we were away on a multi city driving trip. We were watching the weather in case we needed to abandon our plans and come back home mid trip. Randi was extremely flexible and accommodating and I am so grateful for that. Our dog is a picky eater and is also on some tricky meds…and Randi kept in touch with regular updates. She persevered with attempts to get her to eat both food and meds, until our dog did finally start to eat! Our dog came home happy and healthy! We will definitely board with Randi again!”
“Emma took great care of my dog Buddy! She kept us updating by sending pictures and messages to check in! She was great at responding and looks like Buddy had a great time. Would definitely book again!”
“This was Allie’s second stay with Luz and Michelle - and they are THE BEST!! I never once worried. They treat Allie like she’s part of their family, communicate regularly with photos and videos, and send her home clean, happy and so well cared for!! I am SO grateful to have found Luz and Michelle! They are extraordinary!”
“Reggie was well taken care of and happy while staying with Rafaelina. She was excellent at keeping us informed and sending photos daily. Would definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Aurora was right at home during her stay and I was worry free! From the moment I met Saiad and he showed us around I knew Aurora would be in good hands. Clean and attentive- making sure to share photos and details of Aurora’s stay. It was just the safe, happy stay we required.”
“Yuri is simply amazing. I had an emergency and needed to travel, and my dog sitter canceled. She took my dog for boarding within the same hour. My puppy loved her! She sent me pictures and videos everyday, which kept me at ease. My puppy came back so happy and spoiled. I’ll definitely be cooking with her again.”
“Rene always takes great care of Cory. She noticed that he was itchy and has some skin irritation so asked if he could have some Benadryl, and always sends pics and videos of him playing and having a great time.”
“Remi had a great time boarding overnight with Alexis and her husband!! The backyard is perfect for dogs and they had great communication! Would definitely recommend and plan on using again! 😊”
“Jennifer and James were great hosts. Very professional and friendly, sent plenty of updates, and clearly took the responsibility of looking after another person's pet very seriously. My beagle Ella had a great time playing with Seamus and seemed to be right at home. Would definitely recommend to others!”
“They watched Coco a few times. Coco had a couple seizures. They offered to take Coco to the vet late at night and provided constant reassurance. They followed the care routines and shared updates. Coco returned home happy. We plan future bookings.”

“Excellent! The cats were happy and well cared for, everything was clean and tidy, and all of their medications were given as instructed. I would definitely recommend!”
“Becky was wonderful with our two cats! We recently moved to the area, and our cats are still adjusting to their new home, so it was especially reassuring to know they were in such good hands. Becky made sure they were fed, refreshed their water, cleaned their bowls and feeding areas, and kept their litter boxes clean. She was reliable and communicative, and we really appreciated the regular updates and photos while we were away. We would absolutely book with Becky again and highly recommend her!”
“This was Alyssa's third time watching our cat, Medi! I really appreciated Alyssa's detailed updates, photos, and patience with Medi as she gradually warmed up to Alyssa.”
“Tara was great! She took care of my boys while we were away. My old man needs multiple medications including chemo and she was able to administer all of his meds. She gave regular updates and photos. Highly recommend Tara!”
““I couldn’t be happier with the care our cat, Blob, received from Jalyne. She went above and beyond to ensure Blob was comfortable and well-cared for while we were away. The daily photos and updates were such a comfort, and it was clear from the pictures that Blob was happy and relaxed. I highly recommend Jaylene for anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive cat sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!””

“When I was away for a few days, Alex came help taking care of my kitties, and did a wonderful job. From the time our booking was confirmed, through the days I was traveling, she provided great communications, and sent updates after every visit. Alex took great care of my kitties and I am very appreciative of her. I highly recommend her services!”
“Great experience! Saiad was attentive, responsive, and took excellent care of Luna. We appreciated the updates and felt confident she was in good hands. Highly recommend them!”
“Danny dropped in daily to check in and feed our cat and did an amazing job! He was super responsive and communicated daily with photos. It was great having the peace of mind while out of the country.”
“Corrine is meticulous and adhered to all the instructions that I left for my cat. All the photos that she took showed how happy my cat was. I would 100% recommend her to other people. Thank you so much Corrine!”
“Jacqueline is not five but six stars! She truly goes above and beyond! She’s not only reliable—sticking to our schedule perfectly for 10 days, even on Christmas, or during a snowstorm, and freezing cold—but also a sweet, pleasant person to deal with. Her excellent communication, updates, and heartwarming cat photos eased our anxiety as first-time users leaving our fur babies. She’s now “our” cat sitter. Highly recommend her! Thank you from the heart.”
“Andrea is incredibly attentive and always puts me at ease while I'm away! She sends adorable pictures of my kitty, sends updates every day and I can tell when I get home that she's been treated like a queen. So grateful to have someone I can trust looking after my home and my girl!”
“Andrew took great care of my 2 cats while I was away for a week ...very responsible ...reliable and gave my cats the attention and care that I give...will definitely use him again!...thanks Andrew!!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Valhalla
“Catherine was fantastic with Achilles! He had a great day and came home happy and relaxed. You can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches. I would definitely book again!”
“Diana was great and so patient with my dog. My dog was very nervous and didn't want to go with her but she was so kind and loving, she went with her. She spent the whole day with her and kept me updated throughout the day. I would highly recommend her. In fact, my dog is going back two more days this week to Diana.”
“First time trying Rover. Yuri was great. Great communication all throughout. She had another dog over and she asked if it was okay before accepting the booking. She sent pictures and videos during playtime and walks. I Will definitely use again!”
“Simone & Sean K were terrific! Kind, attentive to our dog's sensitivities and took great care of her. She had a great day with them. We highly recommend them and will definitely be booking future dates.”
“Our dog Matcha seemed to love her stay with Tatiana! She had plenty of other dogs to spend time with and not worry about how she wasn't at home. If you have a furry friend that doesn't like being home alone for extended hours, I'd recommend Tatiana.”
“Had a great doggy daycare visit with Laura this week! Her attention to detail and genuine love of dogs is what has us coming back again. I loved her desire to really get to know my dog and make accommodation for Lola's little quirks and upside-down scheduling. Thanks Laura (and Chris too) for giving us a new safe haven for Lola!!”
“This was our second time leaving Wiley with Jamie and Anna and once again he had a great day! They even went above and beyond teaching him some tricks! And of course took wonderful care of him.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 17 years. Besides raising my own dogs, I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs for stays ranging from one week to two months. My Goldendoodle loves making new dog friends, and many of our guests have become his best buddies. I work from home most of the week, so I have plenty of time to care for dogs throughout the day. They get regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention, and are rarely left alone. I have fenced yard where my dog loves to play fetch. I usually let my dog out around 8am to play until 9am. All the dogs are welcome to join to play together!
“Lorenzo is a top notch caregiver for your furry kid. He watched Duke 3 days in a row while I worked. Everyday when I picked Duke up he was happy and tired from all the fun he had. If your looking for quality care, I highly recommend Lorenzo!”
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I was six years old, growing up with pets back home in Guatemala. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs—big, small, playful, and shy—and I’ve gained experience with everything from daily walks to giving medication. I currently don’t have pets of my own, which means I can give your dog my full attention. You can expect lots of walks, playtime, love, and regular photo and video updates. I live in a calm, pet-friendly environment and I’m home all the time, so overnight care is never a problem. I’m here to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home! I work part-time in the mornings and am free the rest of the day, and I’m available to board your dog anytime that works for you. Since I work nearby, I can easily accommodate your schedule for drop-offs and pick-ups. I spend most of my time at home, giving plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks—it’s a great way for them to get exercise and have fun. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I love being active with animals and making sure they feel happy and loved all day long. I live in a calm, pet-friendly environment where your dog can feel safe, relaxed, and loved. My home is free of harmful plants and other hazards, I always keep the space clean and comfortable. I have a big yard where I can walk and play with your dog throughout the day, giving them plenty of exercise and attention. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs so they feel right at home. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, and I’m happy to follow any routines that help them feel secure. I know trust matters, so I always keep pet parents updated with photos, videos, and clear communication.
“Valerie took great care of my pup! I appreciated that she was flexible and available for an initial meet and greet. During the care, she sent plenty of updates - photos, videos and was responsive to messages.”
“Karine is WONDERFUL! I was very anxious to drop off my dog Harry in a new place, but he had a BLAST! He seemed to really come out of his shell at Karine's. Karine also was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and informative throughout the booking process & while Harry was at her home. As an anxious dog mom, she was the perfect sitter!”

About: I have had experience with dogs of all breeds since I was 16 years old when I worked as a kennel tech! I was also a volunteer at the Human Society and mostly worked in the cat room - spending time and cuddles and cleaning their living area. I know that the care of your pet is the most important thing to feel secure about when going on vacation or out of town. In addition to years of care sitting for both cats and dogs, I volunteered in South Africa and cared for baby baboons! I know your pet is unique and I will follow all instructions given to ensure your peace of mind, your pet’s safety, and will send pictures daily! I transitioned from the corporate world to and now do this full time, so I am flexible and available at all times to keep your pet’s schedule on track! I care and respect your home just as much as I love animals. If I am in your home, I will follow all instructions as given and am happy to send as many pictures as you request during my stay. This is my full time job so making sure your pets stay on schedule is my priority! It can be overwhelming when owners leave, so maintaining their routines helps ease everyone’s anxiety! I respect your home as if it were my own! I ensure to keep areas clean and respect all areas of the house! I am also happy to do light tasks such as watering plants and brining in your mail. :)
“Craig was great. He took my both my labs on a a walk for a few days on short notice. One of my dogs was a little under the weather and Craig was attentive to his needs. Craig communicated and showed the highest level of professionalism and positivity. I would highly recommend Craig.”
“Kerry is a gem!! My senior dog needs lots of TLC and patience (he's lost most of his vision and hearing, has trouble with stairs and occasionally gets confused), so I was nervous about bringing in someone to walk him. Kerry immediately put my fears to rest -- asked all the right questions, was wonderful with my dog, and communicated well and often during the visit. I won't hesitate to have him visit again and am relieved I found him.”
“Lorenzo has been an amazing dog walker for my energetic dog! He is reliable, always on time, and I could tell right away how much he truly loves dogs. My dog was always so excited to see him and came back from walks happy and well-exercised. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog walker!”
“Emmily was great with my senior German Shepherd dog who is pretty much losing his sight. She is a great communicator and took really nice pictures. I definitely recommend her.”
About: I have worked as a dog walker for multiple families and have worked as a dog sitter both staying in the home and stopping by during the day.

I am looking for another job to make a little extra cash for law school and it works well with my current schedule.

I want your animals to be just as happy as the day you left!

When I care for pets, whether it’s in my home or a client’s, I can make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their normal routine for meals, walks, and playtime so everything feels familiar to them. I love giving them lots of attention, cuddles, and play! If I’m in a client’s home, I’m always respectful and keep things tidy. I also like to send updates and cute pictures so you can see how happy your pet is while you’re away.

Kiara herself is warm and friendly, interested in hearing about all your dog’s foibles, and obviously a calming presence to dogs. We are absolutely going to use her again!”

We have already booked another stay with Sara. Thank you Sara!!!”
