About: Hi! I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable dog lover with over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. While living with my parents, I helped care for our three family dogs—a Golden Retriever mix, a Husky mix, and a Labrador mix. I currently have a friendly 9-month-old Goldendoodle mix who lives with me. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and relax. I only host one guest dog at a time so I can provide personalized care and attention. I treat every dog like family and provide plenty of playtime, potty breaks, exercise, love, and regular photo updates so owners always know how their pet is doing. My goal is to provide a safe, clean, loving, and stress-free environment where every dog feels comfortable, happy, and at home. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I have a flexible schedule and make time every day to provide loving and attentive care. I can provide regular potty breaks, playtime, exercise, feeding, and plenty of attention.

“Kim is simply the best. She’s been a sitter for me for years and I trust her wholeheartedly with my pup. I’m always so grateful for her taking the best care and can fully relax knowing my dog is in the absolute best care. Wouldn’t ever hesitate for a second booking with her and again so so thankful for her!”
“Wednesday had a great time with Brian's family over Thanksgiving! The house is set up where dogs can be separated if they need a break (without being shut up in a bedroom) and the fenced back yard is huge. I would definitely recommend him.”

“Hailey was great! She watched our 2 yr old Charlie girl while we were in Newport for a night. Charlie loved her dog Henri which helped her settle in. Hailey sent lots of pictures and videos. I would definitely book her again!”

“I left my dog with Jennifer and it was a wonderful decision. She updated me with pictures and texts all through my trip to let me know that my dog, Sophie, was safe and sound. I feel like she couldn't have been in better care. She was very well taken care of, loved on, spoiled with attention and I knew without a doubt that my dog was safe and having a good time. I highly, highly recommend!!!”

“Jordan was great! She was super attentive to Lola and provided updates and pictures throughout Lola’s stay. We are so grateful to her for taking such great care of our pup!”

Melissa was so easy going, kept us informed through out his stay, sent pics and videos and even took him on a hike! I felt like he was with someone I knew while he was with Melissa and Sunny! Highly recommend and look forward to more sleepovers for Charlie!”

“Basil and I love Sarah. Basil loves Sarah's big back yard, meeting the school bus, playing with Sarah's kids and dog. This was her second stay with Sarah and I wouldn't even consider leaving her with anyone else.”

“Karen, Chris, and their family were truly the best of the best when it came to caring for our Sunny while we were away on vacation for a week. It was clear from the start how much love and attention they gave him—he absolutely adored them and their dog! He even whined on the car ride home because he didn’t want to leave, which says everything. Karen provided multiple daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful to see how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Sunny was throughout the week. We truly can’t recommend them enough and feel so lucky to have found such incredible sitters. Thank you again, Karen, Chris, Abby, Joe, and Charm —Sunny already misses you all so much!”

“Sharon was very responsive. It was easy to communicate with her via phone, email, & text. She kept me well updated on how my pup was doing. She had a box of dog toys & my puppy found them & started playing right away. Her yard is not fenced however, she had a tether line that allowed my pup to explore most of the yard. Sharon also entertained my pup with our own favorite toys from home such as bubble & puzzles. This was my 1st time to try this service & to leave my 5 month old puppy & I was nervous at first but, Sharon's calming patient personality put me & my pup at ease. My puppy was happy to see me but didn't seem to have missed me much. I would use her for puppy sitting again if I ever had the need. Thank you Sharon for such a nice experience.”

She provided regular updates, had thoughtful questions and communicated thoroughly throughout the process, was able to have him socialize with other dogs during their daily walks. Highly recommend and will use again!”

“Perfect for my happy dog! Madison and Joseph are extremely friendly, professional and accommodating to a schedule change. We greatly appreciated the photos they send each day. I highly recommend them!!!”

“Basil and I love Sarah. Basil loves Sarah's big back yard, meeting the school bus, playing with Sarah's kids and dog. This was her second stay with Sarah and I wouldn't even consider leaving her with anyone else.”

“Karen, Chris, and their family were truly the best of the best when it came to caring for our Sunny while we were away on vacation for a week. It was clear from the start how much love and attention they gave him—he absolutely adored them and their dog! He even whined on the car ride home because he didn’t want to leave, which says everything. Karen provided multiple daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful to see how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Sunny was throughout the week. We truly can’t recommend them enough and feel so lucky to have found such incredible sitters. Thank you again, Karen, Chris, Abby, Joe, and Charm —Sunny already misses you all so much!”

About: Hi, I am a passionate and knowledgeable dog walker and pet sitter with a proven track record of excellent client satisfaction. Skilled at providing companionship and handling multiple animals at the same time. I love all animals and can provide you with great communication skills and well-developed time management abilities! I look forward to hearing from you. I am open and available 24/7 for all pet needs. Happy to stay overnight if needed or stop in on the hour for potty breaks and walks. I want your pet to feel as comfortable and loved as possible especially when I, as a stranger will be entering their home. I come with extra treats, toys and snuggles and will let your pet warm up to me at their own pace:)
“Dana was great! We just picked up our two dogs after a long weekend away… they were well taken care of and spent their days playing with Dana’s other dogs. They had a blast! Dana updated us with pictures and texts throughout their stay and kept us informed.”

“Christina was the best Rover we have ever had! We felt so comfortable leaving Bo with Christina while we were traveling overseas. We received daily updates and Bo looked like he was living his best life and getting plenty of exercise. As soon as we got home, Bo slept all day!! Will definitely be bringing Bo back!”
“Natalia was great with our boxer. She had so much fun playing with her Corgi and came home happy and tired (always a good sign!). Natalia sent lots of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. It was clear our girl was well cared for and getting plenty of attention. Would absolutely recommend her and would definitely book again.”

“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”
