“Martina, did an amazing job with our Snuggles. She sent pictures and gave us updates throughout his stay. He appeared to be well kept and happy. We will definitely use her services again in the future!”
“Whitney is wonderful! I booked a last minute boarding, and I have nothing but great things to say!!! Highly recommend! We will definitely be using her again in the future!❤️”
“This is my first time using a private sitter & it went okay. My dog Kobe is adjusting to being home, I’m military & Aiko was very patient with him despite his not so great behavior towards others dogs. She kept me updated with detailed information about his behavior along with pictures for the weekend stay. She gave my dog the attention he needed & let me know what she thought would be best for him moving forward. You should definitely book her if you need a dog sitter.”
“Highly recommend! My dog stayed with Merrell at her home for 4 days. She sent me pictures everyday and kept me updated. 10/10, I will definitely book my dog with her again!”
“Lauren was kind,professional, and wonderful to work with. Our dog had a great time playing with her dog, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We highly recommend her!”
“Ms Tamera & Mr Skrewball were the perfect sitters for my little “Satin”… He didn’t want to leave her when I picked him up and he came home even more spoiled rotten than before he went to spend the weekend with them! They shared many pictures & videos while we were separated and gave my little guy so much love & affection! I will definitely use her services again & would recommend her to anyone!!! Thanks Again!”
“Thank you, Savannah! Opie had a quick overnight trip with Savannah and Chandler. Very responsive. Easy peasy and Opie is a happy camper. Appreciate the happy home with a playmate for Opie to stay at.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for a variety of breeds and personalities. I currently own two Labrador Retrievers, a Golden Retriever, and a Poodle, which has given me valuable experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. In addition, I regularly help my grandmother care for her five Newfoundland dogs, so I’m comfortable handling large breeds and managing multiple dogs at once. I understand the importance of exercise, safety, patience, and positive interactions, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or providing companionship, I’m committed to making sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently a full-time college student, and I also work part-time from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Since I’m home for a good portion of the day, I’m able to give your dogs plenty of attention, take them outside regularly, go on walks, and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. My schedule allows me to work around each dog’s normal routine, whether that means feeding times, bathroom breaks, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I enjoy being around dogs and would treat your pets with the same care and attention I would want for my own. When caring for pets, I always try to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, so I’ll follow any instructions the owner provides, including feeding schedules, walks, bathroom breaks, medications, and any other special needs. Since I work part-time from home and have a flexible school schedule, I’m able to spend plenty of time with the pets I’m caring for. Whether I’m watching them in my home or staying at a client’s home, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I’ll also keep owners updated so they can feel comfortable knowing their pets are in good hands.
“Eileen was great with Daisy. First time we left Daisy for 3 days to a sitter and we felt very comfortable with Eileen knowing that our baby is going to be looked after well. Thanks Eileen. Daisy will definitely return.”
“Kasey was amazing!! I needed a sitter last minute and she was more than accommodating! She is very communicative and sends lots of pictures and updates, which made me feel more at ease. I would highly recommend her!”
“Susan was fantastic! She sent daily updates and made drop off and pick up very easy. She accomodated a last minute scheduling change due to Hurricane Michael, and I could not be more grateful for her flexibility and the care she provided for our girl. Will definitely use her again.”
