“Allison was really easy to work with. Her and her family took good care of my dog and responded timely with updates when I checked in. I would gladly work with her again in the future.”
“Ron was very helpful taking my young energetic pup on pretty short notice for a long weekend! He was patient with her and definitely gave her some good outlets for play with other dogs because she was totally tired out when I picked her up.”
“Manisha and her family took such good care of Kylo, our 3 and a half months old aussiedoodle that he actually is missing them after returning home after 3 weeks stay. Manisha sent plenty of pictures of Kylo during the entire stay and helped us stay connected to him. Kylo received lots of hugs, kisses and family fun times from Manisha and her family. She is a very thoughtful caretaker and even bought a whole bag of dog food to send home with him after the food we sent with him nearly finished. I would definitely reach out to her again for Kylo and highly recommend her for dog sitting/stay.”
“Thank you Hayley and Graham for taking care of Hank this past weekend. The daily updates and photos made it even easier knowing Hank was in great hands. Hope to use you both again soon.”
“Michelle and Glenn were caring sitters. They sent ample photos of his interactions and shared how he got along well with their dog, too. Our dog came home relaxed and happy. We would definitely ask them to watch our dog again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter for our elderly dog. They gave him all the love and attention a little old man could have asked for. We will definitely use them again.”
“Barbara is a great awesome caregiver for my Maggie. She kept us updated every day and it seemed like Maggie probably didn’t wanna come home cause barber shows a lot of love towards animals. I would recommend her highly.”
“You know your dog was well taken care of when they want to go back in to the house instead of get in the car with you to go home! Thank you for taking such great care of Ava!”
“Katie took wonderful care of my old lady dog Bailey while I was out of town for awhile. She was very communicative, asked me questions about Bailey's care and medications, sent me pictures of her and kept me updated on how she was doing, and always asked about my or Bailey's comfort level if they were doing anything new or different, like going to the beach. Bailey also adored the kids, and seemed very happy with her stay. She was living her best life during her visit with Katie, she almost didn't want to come home with me. Haha! Would highly recommend.”
“Yvonne and Sam took such wonderful care of Delilah! They have a lovely home and backyard perfect for sitting and treated her like one of their own. I got lots of updates, pictures, video, and she asked lots of questions to make sure everything went smoothly. Deli is nervous around strangers but warmed up super fast and was clearly having a great time on walks and getting all the snuggles she wanted. It was great having my mind at ease while on vacation!”
“This family took great care of our dog and hamster, I highly recommend. I received pictures throughout our time away and updates on how the animals were doing. I will contact them for our next vacation away from home.”
“Stephanie is so great and caring with my precious dog! My dog is a Senior and pretty blind, and she was very patient and got her acclimated very nicely! She loved playing with the other dogs and came home happy and tired.”
“Peter and his family were the perfect fit for our puppy! Peter was able to accommodate us at the very last minute and even cared for our puppy while he was experiencing some digestive troubles. We got daily photos of our pup having fun and being treated like part of the family. We would 100% book with Peter again!”
“Highly recommended — Reliable and attentive! Our dog Luna received excellent care, plenty of exercise, and thoughtful updates throughout the stay. Luna looked happy each and every day we were away. Thanks Melani for your excellent care!”
“Jennifer & Eric and the boys were great company for Oliver. He came home tired and that's a good sign. We appreciated the option for sitter-pick up and thank you for taking good care of our boy.”

“Samantha did a great job at treating Scarlett for hyperthyroidism while we were gone. Getting the gel into Scarlett's ear with accompanying treats seems to have done the trick! Great job Samantha. J & J”
“Mary Anne was the best! She was communicative, professional, and kind. She made us feel so at ease going on our trip and sent the best pictures of our cat! I will 100% be booking with her again!”
“Jessica was great in handling and caring for our Maine Coon male cat who has anxiety issues when we leave town for a while. Communication was excellent including daily photos and an occasional video. Highly recommended!”
“Susan was so super fantastic taking care of our kitties while we were away. They sure grew to love her quite quickly as well. Definitely hope to get you back fir the next time.”
About: I’m a huge animal lover and truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I’m very dependable and trustworthy, and I treat every animal with the same love and care I would give my own. I also make sure pets stay on their normal routines and always keep owners updated so they know their pet is happy and safe. This and Uber Eats are my full time jobs. I will only be gone for a couple hours in the evening for Uber Eats some days and Sunday early afternoons I have church but other than that I’m available. I am very attentive to pet’s needs and listen closely to the owner’s instructions. No matter how big or small your animal is, dog or cat, I have unlimited patience and care.
“Freya did a great job making us feel comfortable with our kitty while we were out of town. She was very good at communicating with updates and pictures and kept the house nice and clean. Would definitely recommend”
About: As a cat mom myself, I know how important it is to know that your cat is being well taken care of while you are away. As a cat sitter, my mission is to provide reliable and quality care. I enjoy learning about cats and their preferences. Like my cat for instance, she is not one to jump around for toys, but the moment I offer chin scratches and a warm place to sit on my legs, she is all for it. I do enjoy a good play time with cats though! So if playtime is their thing, then I’m all for it! I have experience with cleaning litter boxes, serving food and treats, and administering endless chin scratches.
“Rie came through for us when I had an impromptu trip for work. She graciously agreed to watch Tinker on just a few days notice. Rie has always done a great job for us and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a good honest sitter.”
“Kelly is fantastic!! She takes great care of our boys when we’re out of town. She’s thoughtful and respectful of our home and is very patient with our shy kitties. We really appreciate her!!”
“Our cats loved Jurick! They warmed up to him easily and he took his time and was patient with our most skittish cat. He was prompt on time everyday. Highly recommend!”
“Camille did a great job! She made friends with our shy kitty right away and gave him lots of loving interaction. He usually hides around anyone new, but he really loved Camille! We appreciated the pictures of him, it's clear that he had a grand time with his new friend :)”
“Alexis has been super on top of it with her communication! She is reliable and sent me great updates about her time with our puppy. I am careful about who I trust with our puppy and I would hire Alexis any time.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family. Finding someone you trust to care for your pets is incredibly important, and I strive to provide the same attentive, dependable care that I want for my own dogs. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, cats, rabbits, fish, and have spent time around horses and other barn animals. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, medication administration, plenty of cuddles, or simply a consistent routine, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. I also know how much reassurance matters when you’re away, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and treated like family. As a dog owner myself, I have firsthand experience caring for pets with anxiety, behavioral challenges, and ongoing medical needs. I have a background in positive reinforcement training and believe in using patience, consistency, and rewards to encourage good behavior. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, medication schedules, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. Whether your pet needs extra reassurance, a structured routine, or specialized care, I’m committed to providing attentive, compassionate support. My schedule is fully open and am dedicated to pet care in the Beaverton/Portland/Tigard/Hillsboro area. Due to having my own dogs, I am unable to Provide overnight care in your home but can offer boarding services for friendly dogs. In My Home: Your dog will be treated like part of the family during their stay. I have a small fenced yard for potty breaks and outdoor time, and Hazeldale Park is just a short walk away for additional exercise and enrichment. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless you prefer otherwise, and I’ll follow your pet’s usual routines, rules, and training expectations to help them feel comfortable. In Your Home & On Walks: Walks are tailored to your dog’s age, energy level, and individual needs. Whether we’re exploring your neighborhood, staying at home, or enjoying a relaxed sniffari, I’ll provide safe exercise, mental enrichment, and plenty of positive attention. I have a large dog stroller and use positive reinforcement techniques on walks. We will go over anlso review any training cues, commands, or routines you have established to help maintain consistency and good habits.
“Vanessa was super gracious and caring for my cats when I needed someone to watch them for a couple hours. Not only that, but she’s very educated with animals being a vet tech, and had all the supplies for them so I didn’t have to lug all their stuff over!! I’m definitely going to be contacting her again for help with my furry family. Thank you!!”
About: I grew up with no less than 3 cats at any given moment. I have experienced every kitty from my Sunny boy with feisty orange cat energy to my lazy mainecoon mix, Bronco. I understand cats needs and how those may change as their families leave for vacation. I am excited to provide your babies with comfort through cuddles, play, or simply making sure they can stay clean and fed while you are away. I am comfortable giving oral medications throughout the day and have experience with cats who struggle to take medication.

“My little dog Clara absolutely adores Susan and Ian and their two big dogs. They have such a wonderful dynamic with their intelligent, energetic dogs, and it melts my heart to see Clara be welcomed into their pack. She comes home so happy and tired from a full day of exercise, play, affection, and relaxing among her favorite spots. Their pickup add-on is really wonderful, and Clara gets so excited when she realizes it's time to go have fun with Baz and Ruby! It is so special to see my little dog and other new friends in daycare all confidently playing together. Every daycare dog she's met with them has been an immediate friend--not always what you expect with a chihuahua away from mom and home--and that speaks to how thoughtfully Susan and Ian manage the group. They have a real gift for understanding different dogs so that they feel comfortable, safe, and included. I trust them completely with Clara and couldn't recommend them more highly.”
About: If you're a dog lover, you should have dogs, right? I've had dogs all my life and we currently have two small well-behaved dogs, Daisy and Buddy, both under 20 lbs. My 23-year-old son Sam is a co-sitter (I'm primary) and your doggie will receive all the love it can handle! Sam used to volunteer as a dog walker at the Maui Humane Society when we lived on Maui and we spent Saturdays at the pet-a-puppy adoption gathering at the Maui Mall. Animals seem to know we're safe and loving and tend to come to us when they need help. We've rescued a duckling, a Mynah bird, a baby squirrel, a lost kitten, and two adult dogs, caring for them in our homes until appropriately placed or returned to their owners. We also took part in a humpback whale rescue when visiting Maui Feb 2023. I work from home as an instructional designer; my son is an student in animation and is also at home and absolutely adores every animal he ever met. Two responsible adults are here at all times, so this makes it easy to give your fur baby the attention it deserves. Our dogs are indoor dogs and have free roam of our house. We have a large, fenced, dog-friendly backyard for exercise. Our two small friendly dogs can show your dog the ropes. We recommend a visit prior to placement so they can all get acquainted.
“Vanessa was great. She is incredibly knowledgeable and an experienced handler. She took her time to introduce my dog to all of the areas in her home and sent me pictures with updates on how things were going. I will most certainly be using her services in the future.”
“Damon has been a life saver for my daycare needs. He is reliable, personable, and communicative. I work full time and have an active GSD who needs adequate mental stimulation and play. By the time I pick her up, she’s ready to eat and relax for the rest of the evening. He has a spacious and clean backyard for the dogs to roam/play around in without it feeling too crowded. I always get pics and updates thru out the day to make me feel reassured she’s safe and having a great time. Would absolutely recommend Damon and his services.”
“So happy with Jujus stay with Allison and her husband over the weekend. Juju loved playing fetch with their children in the backyard and had a great time and I received multiple pictures and updates during the stay. Absolutely will use Allison again. Thanks!”
“I appreciate Alison taking my pup on such short notice. My little guy has never been away from home before so we were both nervous.. but Alison did awesome at making us both feel safe and secure ij her care. Sending me beautiful photos and updates of my pup throughout the day was much appreciated 🥰 thanks Alison”
“Vinai asked some great questions to make sure Rocky was compatible with the pack which we appreciated. Rocky can be wary of new people, but Vinai was really accommodating and let her get comfortable at her own pace. Showed up to a happy and tired pup!”
“Both Hayley and Graham have taken such special care of my labrador dog at their home. She loves the socialization and their home is very comfortable for doggy daycare. We appreciate you so much arranging your schedule to lovingly care for Emmie.”
About: As a pet parent myself, I know exactly what it feels like to walk out the front door and feel that instant wave of worry; leaving your furry family members requires an immense amount of trust, and my top priority is making sure you feel completely secure, updated, and at ease while you’re away. I bring extensive, hands-on experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and cats of all personalities—whether that means managing a young puppy's strict potty-training schedule, giving a senior dog a gentle afternoon stroll, or respecting a cautious cat’s boundaries. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, and I am committed to following your exact routine while providing detailed updates and plenty of photo check-ins so you never have to guess how they are doing.🦮💜🐾 Pet care is my top priority, and I structure my daily and weekly life entirely around my work. Because I plan my personal schedule to fit the needs of my clients, I have an incredibly open, flexible schedule. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or evening care, I am fully available to ensure they get consistent attention and love exactly when they need it. When caring for pets, safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly home with my own dogs, so I am deeply familiar with managing multiple animal dynamics and maintaining a secure, supervised environment—including the ability to keep my dogs completely separated from yours whenever needed. Whether hosting pets in my home or providing drop-in care and walks at yours, I strictly follow all specific care instructions, double-check that doors and gates are fully secure, and always keep dogs securely leashed during outings. My goal is to maintain your pet's exact routine so they feel completely safe, relaxed, and loved.
“Piggy had a great time with Marla and Keith. She got all her puppy energy out and came back ready for bed. They gave a great update at the end of the day about how it went and I felt very comfortable leaving her with them. 10/10”
“Julie took wonderful care of my active Aussie. My pooch came home tired, and we all know that a tired dog is a good dog. I will use Julie again...the next visit already booked.”
“Peter is kind, has a lovely home and welcomed Max with open arms. Sounds like my pup has a great day with Peter and his family. Peter was also super flexible when I needed to make some timing changes based on my daughter’s unpredictable basketball tournament schedule. Highly recommend!”
“Jami was amazing and helped us out with a last minute work trip! She was flexible and did incredible hikes and outings with our dogs. They were so happy to be with Jami!”
“Heather watched my shy foster dog that has separation anxiety while I was at work and was willing to take it slow with her which I so appreciated! Her kids were very sweet with her and Sweetie was well taken care of:)”
“Brinks loved going to Kirsten's house! He had a great time playing with her dog and kids. It was so nice for me to be able to go to work with the peace of mind knowing that he was safe and well cared for.”
“I normally stress out about leaving my dog with someone else, but after our meet and greet, I was actually excited about leaving my dog with Mersal and Cora. He doesn’t get many opportunities to play with other dogs. He had the best time ever with Mersal and Cora. He didn’t want to leave. I think I’ll be reserving more time just for his happiness to be with Mersal and Cora.”
“My dogs had an amazing time with Michael and Cindy! They got lots of exercise and love and snuggles. I felt completely at ease knowing they were being taken care of while I was away. The dogs even got baths and massages, and came home all fresh and clean. :) So, so, so happy with my experience.”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up with both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my daily life. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes—from small breeds to large, energetic dogs—and I enjoy making sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I volunteer at a local animal shelter where I help walk and spend time with dogs waiting for their forever homes. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or pet sitting, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s routine so they feel relaxed while you’re away. I also love sending updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I work in the clinic four days a week, but I’m available on Thursdays and weekends. During those times, I’m able to dedicate my attention to walks, drop-ins, and spending quality time with pets. I enjoy being active and getting outside, so caring for pets fits perfectly into my schedule and allows me to give them the attention, exercise, and care they need I live in an apartment, so I make sure pets get outside regularly for walks, bathroom breaks, and exercise based on their individual needs and energy level. I’m dedicated to keeping pets active, engaged, and comfortable while they’re in my care. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow the pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions.
“Madison is AMAZING!! My dog Zelda is a stubborn girl and Madison won her over very quickly. She is a real trooper putting up with 5 AM rainy morning walks, yet she makes sure Zelda gets what she needs. Madison is delightful, communicative and truly responsible. I will hire her again! Thank you, Nadison!”
“Ron is fantastic with our highly energetic Corgi! He's reliable and incredibly patient, and he never seems phased by his energy. You can tell Ron puts his whole heart into it. He genuinely cares about our dog's wellbeing. Our dog Kiyo absolutely adores the walks and gets so excited whenever he sees him. We've noticed a real difference in his mood and energy levels since we started using Ron, and we couldn't recommend him more highly.”

I have a very open schedule day or night, except on Monday night. I Would be happy to discuss any special needs owner might have. Trust me to follow all instructions when caring for your pet in your home. I Will respect your space. Free cuddles given all the time
About: I’m an undergraduate environmental science student at Portland State, currently on summer break. I recently worked as a student research technician, handling and tracking frogs and documenting their habitats. My family has had our fair share of dogs and cats over the years, which contributed to my love for animals and the outdoors. I’ve cared for the pets and houses of friends and family since 2023, checking in throughout the day to provide meals and quality playtime. --- I enjoy figuring out how to build a true connection with animals, some more unique than others. My family has two cats with very distinct personalities: Evy, our affectionate 13 year old, and Sophie, our 2 year old feisty tortie. We rescued Sophie as a 3 week old kitten, and she began experiencing seizures at just 9 weeks old. This was a scary and confusing time, involving many emergency vet visits. She is now healthy and happy, on a strict schedule requiring medicine by mouth every 12 hours. Each pet I’ve been lucky to have has taught me something, and I’ve had to learn from her the most. She is a high maintenance kitty who doesn’t like pets. She shows her affection in unconventional ways, and I wouldn’t have it any other way :-) Please message me if you're curious about booking me on a date I have marked as unavailable. Though I've marked weekdays starting in late September as unavailable for the time being due to classes starting, I may still be able to provide services. Otherwise, I'm on summer break so my schedule is quite open. I'm able to spend quality time with your pet(s) and can work with you to figure out a schedule that works best for them. I'm available for walks, overnight stays, and/or check-ins throughout the day depending on their needs. I'm most compatible with pets who can be left alone for 4-8 hours, as I have personal responsibilities and may need to walk a dog or check in with someone else's pets (or my own!). --- My current nightly rates are intended for 12 hour care (ex: 6 PM to 6 AM, 8 PM to 8 AM, etc.) and 2-4 drop in visits throughout the day, depending on your need and my availability. Please feel free to message me if you have questions, concerns, or if your pet requires more intensive or constant care. I'll do my best make it work! I'd love to meet with you first and get to know your furry family to see if I'm a good fit for them. I enjoyed walking my dog 2-3 times per day in the neighborhood or on local nature park trails. When caring for others' pets in the past, I'd typically check in 2-3 times a day to feed, play, and relax with them, watering plants as needed. While most have been considered low maintenance, I've gained much more intensive experience with my special needs cat Sophie. --- I appreciate schedules and/or written instructions so I can better adapt to your pet's needs, especially if they require medications or atypical care.
“Jessica is amazing! She has a special way with dogs, and our Knight took to her immediately!! You can tell she truly loves and cares about animals!!! From the treats and ball she brought on her first meet to the pictures of her visit she posted on Rover! Amazing! Will definitely use Jessica again!❤️”

About: Having grown up on a 20 acre farm for most of my life, I have cared for all shapes and sizes of animals - from horses to snakes, and everything in between! When I moved into an apartment for college, I missed the "dog energy" in our household and set to volunteering hundreds of hours at the Humane Society, which also included basic training skills and walking the most aggressive 100+lb leash pullers. This later evolved into working at a veterinary clinic where I was trained to monitor recovering animals and administer medications safely and with as little stress as possible through Fear Free certification. Animal body language is my second language! I love the outdoors as much as the indoors, and am more than happy to accommodate medical needs. ♡ If you would like extras taken care of during your pets stay or our visit, such as bathing, grooming, nail trims, or a run, just let me know! My dog, Leo, and I are constantly going on hikes and we are more than happy to tucker your pups out with a day trip, just reach out for rates. I currently work as a Braille Librarian for the state and used to teach Low Vision/Blind learners, and I am also fluent in American Sign Language (ASL), so I have a soft spot for dogs that may be Deaf, Blind, or DeafBlind. To top it all off, I am working on weaseling my way into Guide Dog puppy raising, and all the training tips that come along with that. ( : I commute to Salem Wednesday and Friday, which means my schedule during those days is usually pretty limited to anything after 430pm. Otherwise, my weekends are typically completely free and ready to be filled with whatever your fur babies need! Using the Fear Free method, I work with a pet's body language to determine what will work best in the current situation, and when methods may be effective versus stressful. I am ready to go at your pet's pace with whatever they may need, and clearly communicate the process along the way.
About: I’ve been a dog sitter for more than five years for other dogs and I have been a dog owner for 10 years! I’m patient and caring! I’ll be free to walk dogs all summer since I’m a teacher and have this summer off! Be happy to take care of your pet! I have a fenced yard. I have a clean home that’s welcoming to all! I am organized, patient, and kind. I care a lot about dogs!
About: I've been dog sitting for friends and family for over 7 years. I love dogs and love going on walks with them! I have experience with nervous dogs and higher energy dogs, I've dog-sat rescues, 1-year-olds with their bouncing off the walls, and seniors. I help my mom with in-home child care during the week from Monday to Thursday but I have free time outside of that. I usually can start the day by 7am but will start moving earlier if the dog needs it! I have a smaller fenced backyard with some dog neighbors. We have some guinea pigs in our home but they're upstairs in an elevated cage with a gate at the bottom of the stairs. The neighborhood has a variety of routes I can go on of different lengths to fit your dog's needs.
“I couldn’t be happier with our dog walker Mara. Communication was always clear, punctuality was excellent, and most importantly, my dog Gino was treated with care and affection. It’s obvious how experienced and attentive Mara is and it makes such a difference. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet.”
“Sarah is the BEST! Caring and considerate and just an amazing dog person. 1st time doing this and wasn’t sure how it was going to work. Sarah was super helpful and we ended adding more walks to the schedule while we were gone. I love all the pictures! She takes great photos and videos too. I feel very confident and at peace about leaving Zoey in Sarah’s care do the dog walks while we’re gone. Love her and do does Zoey!”
“Andrea and Don were wonderful! They walked my dog Scout 3 days while we were out of town. My sister was staying with Scout but she is unable to walk him due to mobility issues. Andrea and Don came on time and walked Scout the amount of time we had requested. Couldn't be happier with how kind and considerate they are.”
“Shannon is awesome! She gave us really great feedback for Dame, she's very responsive and knowledgeable. We're very excited to have someone we can trust take care of our sweet pup when we need it!”
“Corey has been a lifesaver for my pug, Poppy, and me! She walks her 4 days a week and brings her son, Luke, with her which I love because Poppy's rarely around kids (plus, I know that between Corey and Luke, Poppy is getting a good dose of exercise during their visits). I am so grateful that they take such good care of my girl (and she captures great photos of her!). Thank you, Corey (and Luke)!”
“Elizabeth has been taking care of Gabe (8 year old Mini Schnauzer) for my elderly mother almost daily for several weeks. She is punctual, attentive, responsible and very kind to both Gabe and my mother. I highly recommend Elizebeth to walk or care for any of your loved ones - big and small.”

“Ron was very helpful taking my young energetic pup on pretty short notice for a long weekend! He was patient with her and definitely gave her some good outlets for play with other dogs because she was totally tired out when I picked her up.”
“Manisha and her family took such good care of Kylo, our 3 and a half months old aussiedoodle that he actually is missing them after returning home after 3 weeks stay. Manisha sent plenty of pictures of Kylo during the entire stay and helped us stay connected to him. Kylo received lots of hugs, kisses and family fun times from Manisha and her family. She is a very thoughtful caretaker and even bought a whole bag of dog food to send home with him after the food we sent with him nearly finished. I would definitely reach out to her again for Kylo and highly recommend her for dog sitting/stay.”
“Thank you Hayley and Graham for taking care of Hank this past weekend. The daily updates and photos made it even easier knowing Hank was in great hands. Hope to use you both again soon.”
“Michelle and Glenn were caring sitters. They sent ample photos of his interactions and shared how he got along well with their dog, too. Our dog came home relaxed and happy. We would definitely ask them to watch our dog again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter for our elderly dog. They gave him all the love and attention a little old man could have asked for. We will definitely use them again.”
“You know your dog was well taken care of when they want to go back in to the house instead of get in the car with you to go home! Thank you for taking such great care of Ava!”
“Katie took wonderful care of my old lady dog Bailey while I was out of town for awhile. She was very communicative, asked me questions about Bailey's care and medications, sent me pictures of her and kept me updated on how she was doing, and always asked about my or Bailey's comfort level if they were doing anything new or different, like going to the beach. Bailey also adored the kids, and seemed very happy with her stay. She was living her best life during her visit with Katie, she almost didn't want to come home with me. Haha! Would highly recommend.”
“Peter and his family were the perfect fit for our puppy! Peter was able to accommodate us at the very last minute and even cared for our puppy while he was experiencing some digestive troubles. We got daily photos of our pup having fun and being treated like part of the family. We would 100% book with Peter again!”
“Highly recommended — Reliable and attentive! Our dog Luna received excellent care, plenty of exercise, and thoughtful updates throughout the stay. Luna looked happy each and every day we were away. Thanks Melani for your excellent care!”
“Jennifer & Eric and the boys were great company for Oliver. He came home tired and that's a good sign. We appreciated the option for sitter-pick up and thank you for taking good care of our boy.”
“Sumo and Gromit had a blast with Kelly and her girls! I received lots of pictures, videos and text messages. Kelly even washed Sumo because he was so dirty from rolling around in her backyard! We'll definitely use Kelly again!”
“Brittany and Blase i can not recommend them enough. They gave updates and the pictures were awesome. Our dogs always looked liked they were on vacation. I dont think they really wanted to come home. Thank you again. Your love for dogs really shines through.”
“Our plans were a little up in the air and Alexis was very accommodating. She kept us updated about how they were doing. It was nice knowing the pups were safe and sound!”
“Dottie provided excellent care for Sahara on her second stay. She administered an appetite stimulant I gave her and figured out the types of food that my little finicky eater would go for. She texted several pictures while I was away and Sahara was obviously content and comfortable. I’m very satisfied with Dottie’s service.”
“Mariia saved me at short notice when another sitter canceled unexpectedly and I needed overnight care for my dog. Mariia is a kind and understanding and took excellent care of Atlas and sent me photos and updates. I was honestly surprised how well it went, considering my dog is anxious and needy. I would hire Mariia again in a heartbeat.”
