About: Hi I’m Ali! (Alexandra is my full name) Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with dogs and have loved caring for them for as long as I can remember. I currently have two dogs of my own, Zuko and Maggie, who have given me experience with dogs at very different stages of life. I raised and trained Zuko from the time he was a puppy, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention that young dogs need. I also adopted Maggie when she was 9 years old, which has given me experience caring for a senior dog and understanding that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. I treat every dog in my care like family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy while they’re with me. Whether your pup needs playtime, walks, cuddles, patience, or simply a cozy place to relax, I’m happy to give them the personalized care and attention they deserve. 🐶❤️ Pet Care That Fits Into My Everyday Life 🐾 I work fully remotely, which means I’m home with the dogs throughout the day and able to give them plenty of attention, companionship, and care. My workday typically starts at 8:30 AM, but every morning begins with a long walk for Zuko to make sure he gets his exercise and starts the day happy. My schedule is also flexible, so I’m able to take multiple breaks throughout the day for potty breaks, backyard playtime, cuddles, and check-ins. I love having dogs around while I work, and having them as part of my daily routine makes pet care feel very natural. Your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches while in my care. I’m able to provide frequent attention, bathroom breaks, playtime, and lots of love throughout the day while still maintaining a consistent routine. I have a medium-sized, fully fenced-in yard where dogs have plenty of room to run, play fetch, and get their zoomies out! I love giving pups opportunities for exercise and play while also making sure they have a safe and comfortable space to relax. I also have a designated pet room upstairs for dogs who need some quiet time or a little space of their own. It’s set up with plenty of toys, comfortable pet beds, and everything they need to feel cozy and at home. My goal is to give every pup a balance of play, attention, and downtime so they can feel safe, happy, and comfortable while they’re staying with me.
“Rosanna and her boys were wonderful. Super easy to work with and very flexible with pick up and drop off. Our Marty made some new friends and took plenty of walks. We received daily pictures and over all Marty seemed happy and well taken care of. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Absolutely WONDERFUL. I literally have no words to describe how amazing Traci and Jeffery’s care was for Apollo. They are so sweet and kind and treated my dog as their own. They kept me updated on his activities and behaviors. They were so incredibly accompanying to his medical needs. They are such lovely people to talk with as well. They are very communicative and on top of the job. If you need care for your dog. Hire Traci and Jeffery!”
“We can’t recommend Leanne enough! She and her family took such wonderful care of our girl while we were away. This was one of the first times we had to leave her for multiple days, and we were definitely a bit nervous—but Leanne made the whole process incredibly easy and comforting. It was clear from the updates and photos that our pup was having an amazing time and felt right at home. We’re so grateful to have found someone so kind and attentive. Thank you, Leanne!”
“Kathleen was absolutely exceptional. From our initial meeting to the pick of my pups she was communicative, attentive and treated my pups like gold! I’m so grateful so have found her and highly recommend her for your future services!”
“Elaine was amazing!! She was very patient with my baby who is very anxious around new people and places. She let me know how she was doing daily. And to my surprise, my Chi-chi even got along with her dog. I would definitely recommend and re-book with Elaine in the future.”
“This is our 2nd stay with Christine. She has always communicated well with us on Chewie's stay. We love that she tries to watch only 1 dog at a time to keep her focus on the care of 1. We are already booked with Christine in Sept.”
“Melissa & Dan took great care of Bowser and were very understanding of his nervousness when a storm came through. They kept me updated on Bowser throughout his stay, and Bowser played well with their dogs. I highly recommend using them!”
“Kathryn is a fantastic dog sitter. If I could give more than five stars I would. My dog Cali stayed with Kathryn and her dog Rooney for 3 nights. She sent me photos and video updates during her stay. My dog loved running around the yard and playing with Rooney. Kathryn gave her a lot of attention and made her feel at home. It made me feel at ease while I was away. I highly recommend Kathryn and I will hire her again in the future.”
“Wanda and her family were kind and accommodating while watching my dog Banjo. She ensured he was cared for throughout his stay and made him comfortable while he was anxious during thunderstorms and 4th of July fireworks. I would highly recommend Wanda for any and all pet-related needs.”
“Jia was fantastic! She was very flexible and understanding with pick up and drop off times, was attentive during the meet and greet to both care instructions as well as making sure Dashi fit in well, and was extremely communicative during the sit with photo and video updates. I would highly recommend Jia for her attention to detail and excellent care for your pup.”
“Angela and Michael took great care of our Molly. We're so grateful for their care and patience with our 14 year old pup! Their communication was prompt and helpful. Angela and Michael provided a wonderful, safe, and supportive environment for Molly.”
“My dog was very reluctant to leave and that's how you know a caretaker has done a great job. Gabriela and her husband both are genuinely nice people who love dogs. What more could you hope for in a caretaker?”
“Janet, made me feel comfortable with leaving my baby boy. This was the first time using this app and she was wonderful with communication and sending pics of my baby. I would definitely refer and use her again.”
“Iger is great with my pup! I always feel relaxed knowing he is with someone who truly cares on animals. He sends tons of photos and videos and also easy to get a hold of! It’s great to know someone you can trust with your pup! I highly recommend him!!!”
“I am so picky about my dog's care. But I really needed someone in a home instead of the pet hotel. I travel often for work and having a personal touch is important. Pamela was everything I could hope for! She truly treated him like her own pet. She sent great pictures every single day. I could tell my baby was happy by his body language. Her dog and my dog were fast friends. I could not be happier. I will DEFINITELY use her services again. What a sweet soul and a great dog advocate.”
“Joe and Bonnie were wonderful caregivers to my dog Lulu. She has never stayed away from me before and they sent me pictures of her playing and being loved by them. I felt I could relax and not worry about her. They are very special people. I will definitely ask them to take her again.”

“I would highly recommend Amber as everything went according to plan. I loved the daily updates/pictures. Although, my cats were too shy to come out, she took the time and tried her hardest. I will definitely use her for my future kitty cat needs.”
“Excellent care and communication! Jimi connected with my cats upon first meeting them and they were right at home with him. Photo updates and periodic check-ins made leaving my cats easier knowing they were well tended to. It was also wonderful to come home to a clean and tidy space and tend to unpacking rather than the linens, vacuuming, and dishes. I would highly recommend Jimi to care for your pets and home.”
About: I have cared for family and friends pets since I was 14 years old. Combined with my love for animals and attention to detail, my skill set has helped to create a special experience for each pets needs.

However, on weekends and afternoons I am free to devote my time to caring for your pets. I don't work summers which allows me the flexibility to provide the best care needed to each of your fur pups. When caring for my own and other pets safety and trust is a top priority. Each pet is different however I still make it my business to make sure pets and parents of pets feel comfortable by catering to their specific needs in and out of my home. In my own home, I make sure the environment is free from anything that can be toxic to animals such as exposed wire, toxic plants, or foods. I maintain consistency with pet schedules to ensure each animal feels comfortable. I have a large backyard that is partially fenced in so pets can get regular exercise. I also have one mini poodle that goes by Karter, if it meets the pets needs Karter is great company to keep to promote interaction and stimulation throughout the day.

About: I have owned dogs and cats of all sizes and I am comfortable with both puppies and senior animals. I have a secure, large yard, air conditioning, and full-time availability to spoil your pet. (My dog has passed so no pets live in the home). I'm very attuned to animals needs and make sure they're comfortable and calm. I am happy to host multiple pets at once as long as your pet is friendly (can host cats alone without other animals). I work from home part time. My house is very chill and my schedule is flexible. I rarely need to leave the house, and if your dog has separation anxiety i can plan to be fully available. I drive so I can attend to pets as needed throughout the day and evening at your home. If at my home, we will mostly hang out on the first floor where your pet can access food and water. I provide frequent bathroom breaks and time out in the yard (or a quick walk around the neighborhood). At clients homes, I make sure the pet is comfortable in its natural environment, play, and take them outside as needed.
“Excellent and trustworthy! Laura felt like having a friend over. She communicated effortlessly and took care of our fur babies without any worries or concerns. We want to have her support us in future trips! Thanks, Laura!”
“Joann is great!! So happy we connected! It gives me so much piece of mind when I’m at work to know my little Lucy is being taken care of. She lets her out, plays with her and always lets me know how Lucy is! Great experience!!”
“Lacey was fantastic! I went away for a week for the first time since getting my cat and her consistency and professionalism made it so much easier. I loved the regular check ins and my boy seemed happy as ever on return. Thank you!”

I’ll keep their routine consistent, give them lots of attention (or space if they’re the independent type!), clean litter boxes, refresh food and water, and send plenty of photo updates so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing.
About: I currently have two cocker spaniels and one is partially blind and he trusts my voice. They are family and get treated like a member. I worked in The Casino business and while working there I fell back into dog care for co wokers who were working double shifts and then things took off from there while dog care walks and play time I also cared for cats as well! I love what I do and that is important balance in showing how well you work with animals! I like to excercise the dog and then spend some chill time towards then end of the session. I have walked 3 dogs at one time and I am very comfortable doing so. So I look forward to meeting you and you fur baby!

About: Hi! My name is Amanda and I’m a dependable animal lover with experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve had dogs and cats all my life, which has given me a strong understanding of animal care and behavior.

They were attentive to Angels needs and she always comes back happy. Definitely recommend using them if you ever need!”
“Achilles is a very high energy kind of dog; you have to be great to handle him! Jovani did exceptionally well with him. What made my heart smile is the way Achilles ran towards his door and also jumped for joy when I dropped him both days! Achilles is a very smart dog; if you are bad with him, he runs away from you but if you are good with him, he'll be all over you any time he sets his eyes on you! Trust me, your dog will have a great time with Jovani! I am so happy Achilles has a second home where he is loved & taken care of! I would have given a 10 star rating if there was one!!!”
“I had 2 other pet sitters cancel on me before I found Kathleen. She was a lifesaver. She was willing to watch Gia and Ghira with little notice. She was so easy to communicate with. She sent me multiple pictures during their time at her house. I would highly recommend Kathleen. She was awesome!”
“Lovely and welcoming environment. Our dogs settled in very quickly and got along great with his dog. When we picked them up they were happy and obviously had a very good day. We are very grateful for the great care he gave them! We will definitely ask him to watch them again as we have family in the area and come back to town a couple times a year. ?”
“I felt very confident that Gordon was in good hands with Melissa and Dan! I loved seeing all the pics and know, even with his anxiety, that he warmed up to their kindness and patience. Would absolutely use their services again 🙏🏼”

“We can’t recommend Leanne enough! She and her family took such wonderful care of our girl while we were away. This was one of the first times we had to leave her for multiple days, and we were definitely a bit nervous—but Leanne made the whole process incredibly easy and comforting. It was clear from the updates and photos that our pup was having an amazing time and felt right at home. We’re so grateful to have found someone so kind and attentive. Thank you, Leanne!”
“Kathleen was absolutely exceptional. From our initial meeting to the pick of my pups she was communicative, attentive and treated my pups like gold! I’m so grateful so have found her and highly recommend her for your future services!”
“This is our 2nd stay with Christine. She has always communicated well with us on Chewie's stay. We love that she tries to watch only 1 dog at a time to keep her focus on the care of 1. We are already booked with Christine in Sept.”
“Melissa & Dan took great care of Bowser and were very understanding of his nervousness when a storm came through. They kept me updated on Bowser throughout his stay, and Bowser played well with their dogs. I highly recommend using them!”
“Kathryn is a fantastic dog sitter. If I could give more than five stars I would. My dog Cali stayed with Kathryn and her dog Rooney for 3 nights. She sent me photos and video updates during her stay. My dog loved running around the yard and playing with Rooney. Kathryn gave her a lot of attention and made her feel at home. It made me feel at ease while I was away. I highly recommend Kathryn and I will hire her again in the future.”
“Jia was fantastic! She was very flexible and understanding with pick up and drop off times, was attentive during the meet and greet to both care instructions as well as making sure Dashi fit in well, and was extremely communicative during the sit with photo and video updates. I would highly recommend Jia for her attention to detail and excellent care for your pup.”
“My dog was very reluctant to leave and that's how you know a caretaker has done a great job. Gabriela and her husband both are genuinely nice people who love dogs. What more could you hope for in a caretaker?”
“Iger is great with my pup! I always feel relaxed knowing he is with someone who truly cares on animals. He sends tons of photos and videos and also easy to get a hold of! It’s great to know someone you can trust with your pup! I highly recommend him!!!”
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
“Colleen was wonderful with our Aussiedoodle, Rex. He is very high-energy, and she did an excellent job caring for him. She kept us updated throughout his stay by sharing photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also very accommodating and easy to work with. I would not hesitate to use Colleen again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet.”
About: Hi! I’m Jessica, I've been a pet owner for over 15 years and have cared for both dogs and cats throughout that time. I have also had the pleasure of caring for our neighbors' pets, and we currently share our home with two friendly, well-loved cats. What sets my home apart is the personalized, one-on-one care I provide. I am the sole caregiver responsible for every aspect of your dog's stay, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, administering medication (if needed), and providing individualized attention. I only host one family's dog(s) at a time, so your pup will receive my full attention in a comfortable environment. This is a family household where my husband and I live with our four children (ages 8, 5, and 2-year-old twins). The children are always supervised around visiting pets, and I remain the only person responsible for your dog's care. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they're being treated with the same love and care we'd want for our own pets. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! I work from home two days each week and structure my schedule to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day. On the other three days, your dog will be let out in the morning and walked if time allows. I get back to the house around 5pm and will resume caring for your dog like they are my own. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only host one family's dog(s) at a time to provide a low-stress environment. Dogs are welcome on the furniture if that's what they're used to at home, and I'll do everything I can to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a family household, young children will be present, but I am the sole caregiver responsible for all pet care and supervision throughout your dog's stay.

He came home happy and tired after playing with the kids for a week. Thanks for being awesome and making my trip less stressful!! I would definitely book with them again.”
