We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and a clean, organized setup. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. We would happily recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”


“In the past 2 years, I've booked Katelyn 7 times for drop-in visits for my cats. She's always done a great job taking care of the boys and I'll continue to request her in the future.”

“Natalie is AMAZING!! She did a meet and greet with us and it was clear from the start how much she loved animals. Aside from instructions, she got on the floor and engaged with our cats. While on our trip, she sent us pictures, videos and updates for all three cats. Eventually, even our shy cat came out and began hanging out in the common area; she made sure to check on him everytime she came over. She was amazing with communicating when she was on her way and heading out, too. While we were gone, she even cleaned up litter from the floor and tidied uo our place. She is phenomenal, we really appreciate Natalie so much!”

“Alex exceeded my expectations!!! This was my first time to use her and, for that matter, any other sitter than the one that I'd been using for 20 years who left the business due to health reasons. The meet-and-greet went very well. Then, from the first, she came on the schedule that we'd agreed to. The visit notes were timely and welcome When we got home, I realized that Alex had done a fabulous job, probably better than I do. The area around the litter boxes was clean. The used food bowls had been well-washed, ready for use again. The newspapers and delivered packages were neatly stacked. I will definitely ask for her again.”
“We were so happy Ana was able to bond with our dogs. One is particularly difficult, but she did such a great job! Appreciated all the photos and updates and extra care during stressful fireworks. Will definitely have Ana again!”

About: My husband and I are loving dog parents, and we’re so excited to care for your pets! We have a friendly 2-year-old Corgi who loves making new friends.

We also have a fenced backyard where your dogs can safely be running and playing with my pup.

“This was my first time to leave my dog with Helen. Helen is amazing and kept sending photos of Charlie when I was away. She loves dogs and she is very kind and caring. Thank yo Helen and we will be definitely back.”

“Nothing but gratitude for Alen and his wife. Our young Belgian Mallinois was with them for a week and they did an amazing job from start to finish, keeping me posted the whole way. My pup was well cared for and adapted quickly- I was worried how he would do in a new environment, but these two are pros! If they can take care of a Belgian Mallinois, they can take care of anything!”


“Annet and her family is the only one I use for my large, older dog. He LOVES going to them for daycare and boarding. He is an anxious shepherd mix and his stays here are always very relaxing for him and he is always very happy to go to their home. I HIGHLY recommend them.”
“Anna did a wonderful job looking after our sweet puppy! I was nervous about leaving my pup for the first time, but I needn't have been. She was well taken care of and Anna sent me lots of photos and was great at communicating how Indi was getting on. I would highly recommend Anna!”


“This is our second time booking with Tori and Lilo loves her! Before ever booking with her, he’d never done any type of doggy day care before. He was a little shy on our first booking but warmed up to her by the end of his first day. By day three he was excited to see her when she came to pick him up. I just had my second booking and as soon as he saw her, Lilo practically jumped into her arms. He actually remembered her and was happy to see her. Tori makes sure to walk him as regularly as he needs and he always comes back happy. He’s a velcro dog and she doesn’t mind LOL. I’d never use Rover before booking with Tori, but am glad I found this app and her! She makes my little guy feel comfortable and safe!”

“Daniela ha sido excelente con nuestra Tinker , ha estado al pendiente de ella , para que se sienta como en casa . Saca de su tiempo para jugar en el patio con Tinker . Estamos muy complacidos con su trabajo . 100 % recomendada .”

“Thank you both for taking great care of coco at the last minute that I needed a sitter for her. This was my first time leaving her somewhere new and was nervous . From pics shared coco was happy and sleeping comfortable. She was held walked fed and properly cared for. I honestly think she was not ready to come back home once I picked her up lol. Thanks for the love you showed my elderly coco. She's found a second home for when I need a doggie day care!”

About: I’ve had dogs around me from childhood through adulthood. I feel like dogs are some of the most loyal creatures on earth that will love you unconditionally. Watching and identifying their various personalities, has been intriguing for me. My dog and I spend a lot of time together. We enjoy walks through Terry Hersey Park a few times a week. We also take the opportunity for him to socialize with others, once a week, at Bill Archer Dog Park. With that being said, even though I don’t currently have a yard, there is plenty of opportunity for any dog I am watching to enjoy taking walks and play time in the outdoors. I currently work remotely, so I have the time to care for your fur baby while you are away. I am looking forward to caring for and getting to know your fur baby! Working from home allows me the opportunity to watch and care for dogs on a weekly basis. Every dog that I board temporarily becomes my responsibility and receive the same level of care as my own dog. Due to limited space, I'm only able to board 1 or 2 dogs at a time. Even though I would love to watch more, it's rewarding to be able give the proper amount of needed attention to each dog.
About: I am 43 years old and have extensive experience caring for dogs throughout my life. I am passionate about their well-being and currently own a Poodle who is an important part of our household. I will treat your dog with the same level of love and attention.

I love dogs and treat them as part of our family I offer a secure fenced yard and a small, friendly poodle to provide companionship for your pet. I am dedicated to caring for dogs and enjoy spending time playing with them.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters , I take care of dogs/cats as full time. I have plenty of time to be with your pup here at home , take them to the dog park, give them cuddles or go for a long walk. I try to keep them busy all day with activities. Here at pup mania your pups daily routine is first thing in the morning we take them out for there morning walk. Walks are usually 15-30mins . Then we head over back home and have breakfast. Usually after our walks some pups like to rest so we take our naps/ cuddles. Around afternoon time we have lunch and have another walk . Evening time we head over to the dog park when it’s not so hot and have them play fetch. Run all over the park to drain there energy. Pets in my home are treated as family. They are my children since it’s only me and my husband. We are both animal lovers especially dogs. We also have a pet spa here were we offer also baths for your pups . We have a dog park that is gated and we take them everyday.

“Charisma is a wonderful dog sitter and walker. She took such great care of my pet and always kept me in the loop with pics and little notes. I never once worried while we were gone. She goes above and beyond!”

“I booked Karina again this week for dog walking, and I am genuinely impressed. Princess, who is usually very shy and slow to trust, bonded with her so much faster this time, and everything went incredibly smoothly. Seeing that level of progress in such a short time really speaks to Karina’s patience, experience, and calm approach. She clearly understands how to work with nervous dogs and builds trust in a very thoughtful and respectful way. It gives me a lot of confidence and peace of mind knowing Princess is with someone so capable. I will definitely continue booking her on a regular basis and highly recommend her to anyone, especially if you have a shy or anxious dog.”
