“Hook stayed with Esequias and Lisa for his second stay. They treated him as one of their own and he seems to have adjusted well to his home away from home. They kept us updated with pics so we could see how he was doing. We just appreciate them so much and will be leaving our fur baby with them in the future.”
“John and Becky are the absolute best! Our doggies love and trust them. We have complete assurance when we are gone that they are in the best place possible and have the best care!”
“Mary is amazing. Extremely professional. Exceptional communication when you are away and worried how your dog will do. Mary is top notch. I was in a bind and was able to book her with less than 24hrs of me leaving. Her care and attention to detail is phenomenal. If you’re looking for someone to go above and beyond. Very grateful”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats growing up. I’ve had four dogs at the same time and I have always had a cat growing up. I love taking care of cats and playing with them. I think animals deserve love and affection and care. I’ve taken care of young animals and I’ve also taken care of senior animals. I currently have two cats who are 13 years old and 3 years old. I currently work full time, so weekends would be best or after work. Fridays I work from home so I’m fully flexible. Overnights stays would have to be weekends unless it’s close to my work then it’s possible for longer stays I have a home that my cats can roam around and everything is pet friendly. They don’t get into anything that is harmful for them
“This was our very first time boarding our dogs, and to be honest, we were a little nervous about the whole process. From the moment we connected with Brianne, all of that worry disappeared. She went above and beyond to make sure our pups were not only safe, but truly happy and comfortable while we were away. Brianne kept us updated every single day, sending thoughtful messages and plenty of pictures throughout the day. It was so reassuring to see our dogs smiling, playing, and being loved on—it honestly felt like they were on their own little vacation! Her communication, kindness, and genuine love for animals gave us complete peace of mind, which made it so much easier for us to enjoy our time away. We cannot recommend Brianne enough. She treated our dogs like her own, and that means the world to us. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, attentive, and has a heart of gold when it comes to caring for pets, she’s the one. We are so grateful we found her, and we’re already looking forward to booking with her again in the future!”
“Diana took great care of my Dog Wooly and was very understanding when my car broke down out of town and I couldn’t come to get Wooly as scheduled. She updated me daily on my dog’s condition and activities and gave him his meds as I instructed. Wooly will definitely love to stay with Diana again 🐾”
“Michele was the perfect sitter for Micky! She sent lots of pictures and updates. Played with him a lot outside and gave him so much love! Will definitely be rebooking😁”
“Can’t say enough about how wonderful Richard is! He helped me in a short notice pinch and was so kind. He took amazing care of my Maia, every picture and video showed her so happy with her tail wagging like crazy. He walked her often and loved on her like she was his own. If that wasn’t awesome enough he came to the rescue again when my flight was extremely delayed and kept Maia for an extra night. Richard is an excellent communicator with frequent updates so I was able to enjoy my holidays stress free. He has a heart of gold and I will definitely use him again. Your pet couldn’t be in better hands with Richard!”
“Courtney and her family were amazing with our pup while we were away for the weekend. They treated her like one of their own—even letting her sleep in their bed! We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving hands.”
“I will definitely book with Luda again! She was fantastic! She sent me an update with pictures every day that she had my furbabies. One of my dogs has anxiety and he was cuddling with her on the second day...she is magic! I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Sarah is great and super reliable! Our pugs were taken care of per our direction and she even helped us with an unplanned extension when our return date got pushed. She administered medication to our blind dog. And both dogs were very happy and content upon our return home.”
“Hank loves to go to Becky's and see all of his friends, The Professer, Daisy, and the kitty. Hank had never met a cat before and they are best of friends. I think Hank thinks Becky's is home away from home. Highly Recommend.”
“Ivy was amazing with our dog Simba! She treated him like one of her own, alongside her fur-babies. Daily checkins with photo updates kept us reassured, and she was so flexible when we unexpectedly needed to extend his stay. Simba was clearly loved and well cared for. We travel often, and Ivy will definitely be our go-to sitter!”

I am looking to spend my days making new dog friends and helping make their parents lives a little easier by taking my new friends for walks and playtime. I am available for regular routine walks & playdates as well as standalone care when needed. I am available during the day and evening 6 days a week. I have 3 dogs of my own. As such I understand schedules and the need to follow them. I will check on, walk, feed your dogs as often as needed so that their routine is as uninterrupted as possible.
About: I have over 6 years of experience with professional in-home pet care, along with a lifetime of caring for my own dogs. I am also certified through the PPCA! I understand how important it is to give your pets the same love and attention I give my own! I truly enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship. My goal is to be a little part of your family and provide that peace of mind while you are away! Pet care is my full time job! My husband is home for my fur babies every night and morning if I need to be at overnights. And I make sure I have time to check in on my babies during the day if have a full day! When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy by following their normal routines as closely as possible. I provide plenty of attention through walks, playtime, and companionship, always practicing proper leash etiquette and respecting feeding or medication instructions. I create a calm, caring environment where pets feel secure, whether they’re playful, need a little extra patience, or are in delicate stages of life, so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
About: With my pet care experience, I bring a unique blend of genuine love and special skills that set me apart. I’m skilled in understanding each pet’s individual needs, from managing special diets and medication schedules to providing engaging playtime that keeps them happy and active. I’m also trained in basic pet first aid and have a calm, patient approach that helps nervous or shy pets feel comfortable. This combination of care, attention, and expertise ensures every pet I look after gets the best experience possible. I have a very open schedule. Any day or time works for me, as I only have a part time job that I can work around. I am very skilled at following owner instructions, managing special needs, and ensuring pets feel safe and loved. I am very committed to providing trustworthy and compassionate care.
About: I treat every dog like my own- prioritizing safety, consistency, and lots of love. Whether it’s a quick drop walk or extended sitting, I pay attention to your dogs unique personalities and needs. You’ll get dependable service, clear communication, and a happy, well cared for pup every time. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to be flexible, attentive, and available throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide consistent care, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company. I’m available anytime and can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs, including early mornings, midday visits, evenings, or last-minute requests. Your pets will be treated like part of my daily life, getting plenty of attention, love, and reliable care while you’re away. I provide attentive, personalized care for each pet in the comfort of their home, adjusting my routine based on the service that you book. For drop in visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter cleaning, and spend quality time with your pet- whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company. For dogs walking, I ensure safe, engaging walks tailored to your dogs energy level, followed by water and a quick check in before I leave. For pet sitting or extended stays, I maintain your pets normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, exercise, medication(if needed), and lots of attention and affection. I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Lover of fur babies of all sizes and breeds. From bottle feeding kittens to raising a senior and a special needs dog of my own, and house sitting or drop ins for different varieties of cats and dogs, I have a lot of experience in caring for all types of pets. My pets are considered family in every sense of the word to me, and I will treat any fur baby I care for as the same! I have experience in drop ins and staying up to a week at a time for pet sitting for both baby and senior pets! Animals have a very special place in my heart.

“Hook stayed with Esequias and Lisa for his second stay. They treated him as one of their own and he seems to have adjusted well to his home away from home. They kept us updated with pics so we could see how he was doing. We just appreciate them so much and will be leaving our fur baby with them in the future.”
“Mary is amazing. Extremely professional. Exceptional communication when you are away and worried how your dog will do. Mary is top notch. I was in a bind and was able to book her with less than 24hrs of me leaving. Her care and attention to detail is phenomenal. If you’re looking for someone to go above and beyond. Very grateful”
“This was our very first time boarding our dogs, and to be honest, we were a little nervous about the whole process. From the moment we connected with Brianne, all of that worry disappeared. She went above and beyond to make sure our pups were not only safe, but truly happy and comfortable while we were away. Brianne kept us updated every single day, sending thoughtful messages and plenty of pictures throughout the day. It was so reassuring to see our dogs smiling, playing, and being loved on—it honestly felt like they were on their own little vacation! Her communication, kindness, and genuine love for animals gave us complete peace of mind, which made it so much easier for us to enjoy our time away. We cannot recommend Brianne enough. She treated our dogs like her own, and that means the world to us. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, attentive, and has a heart of gold when it comes to caring for pets, she’s the one. We are so grateful we found her, and we’re already looking forward to booking with her again in the future!”
“Diana took great care of my Dog Wooly and was very understanding when my car broke down out of town and I couldn’t come to get Wooly as scheduled. She updated me daily on my dog’s condition and activities and gave him his meds as I instructed. Wooly will definitely love to stay with Diana again 🐾”
“Michele was the perfect sitter for Micky! She sent lots of pictures and updates. Played with him a lot outside and gave him so much love! Will definitely be rebooking😁”
“Can’t say enough about how wonderful Richard is! He helped me in a short notice pinch and was so kind. He took amazing care of my Maia, every picture and video showed her so happy with her tail wagging like crazy. He walked her often and loved on her like she was his own. If that wasn’t awesome enough he came to the rescue again when my flight was extremely delayed and kept Maia for an extra night. Richard is an excellent communicator with frequent updates so I was able to enjoy my holidays stress free. He has a heart of gold and I will definitely use him again. Your pet couldn’t be in better hands with Richard!”
“Courtney and her family were amazing with our pup while we were away for the weekend. They treated her like one of their own—even letting her sleep in their bed! We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving hands.”
“Sarah is great and super reliable! Our pugs were taken care of per our direction and she even helped us with an unplanned extension when our return date got pushed. She administered medication to our blind dog. And both dogs were very happy and content upon our return home.”
“Hank loves to go to Becky's and see all of his friends, The Professer, Daisy, and the kitty. Hank had never met a cat before and they are best of friends. I think Hank thinks Becky's is home away from home. Highly Recommend.”
“Ivy was amazing with our dog Simba! She treated him like one of her own, alongside her fur-babies. Daily checkins with photo updates kept us reassured, and she was so flexible when we unexpectedly needed to extend his stay. Simba was clearly loved and well cared for. We travel often, and Ivy will definitely be our go-to sitter!”
“Excellent experience. She took great care of Milah and was very kind from the very beginning. She kept me updated on how Milah was doing, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Milah seemed very calm, comfortable, and well cared for. You can tell she gave her lots of love and attention. I would definitely leave Milah with her again and highly recommend her. 🐾”
“Nora was great! Our fur baby really enjoyed playing with her kids and dogs. She was awesome with updating us with pictures! We will most definitely be using Nora again for future dog sitting occasions!”
“My family and I couldn’t be any happier allowing Penny to watch over our pups…. This was the first time we have ever left them and we were a lil anxious but Penny contacted us every morning and night with an update as well as pictures… Penny kept us at ease everyday and made it easy for pick up and drop offs …. Also her having her own dogs was basically like my dogs were at a 24/7 doggie day care … Penny had a big enough yard for the pups to run around and play so it was a blessing finding her to watch over our pups …. Now vacations have become even easier to take knowing Penny will be watching over them…..”
“Our puppy had an amazing time! We could tell that she was well cared for and had lots of fun! We were sent lots of pictures and videos of her adventures, and she was brought back to our home directly after our fun, but tiring trip. If we need a dog sitter again, we will definitely be booking with Debby.”
“Ashanti was wonderful with my pets. She was concerned about "Rockys" appetite as he is a finicky eater and made him chicken. (I want to stay if I don't want something to eat) Duffy who is an elderly gentledog, looked very relaxed in the pictures and appeared very loved. I will be using her often whenever I go out of town as I can fully trust her with my petbabies. Thank you Ashanti for your professionalism and putting up with Rocky's shenanigans.”
“Erin is fantastic! She took Sam on long walks and sent us lots of photos. She and her boyfriend Matt are incredibly friendly, responsible, and responsive. We will definitely ask them to sit for Sam again soon!”
