“Our Winston loved his time with Kent and his family. He was treated like one of the family. Several updated to keep us from worrying about our boy also. Highly recommend!!”
“The Cross family took excellent care of our English Bulldog while we travelled over the holidays. We had lots of picture updates and had a great experience. We will definitely use them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Absolutely happy with Jessica! She kept me updated with pics and text messages and even gave my pup a bath before I picked him up! Her rates are reasonable and she is professional! Thanks Jessica for taking care of Waffles!”
“I have so many AMAZING things to say about Melissa and Roy!! First off, they are super communicative and quick with responses which put me at ease. From the meet and greet, all the way to pick up, they stayed communicating and sending pictures of our precious pup. During the stay, Melissa ended up needing to take our dog to the vet and was super nice and thoughtful with the entire process. They kept me updated all week long and I just know our pup enjoyed his time with them. They are some of the nicest and more caring people in the world and I know they took the absolute best care of our dog. To be honest, I dont think he wanted to leave because I know he enjoyed all the play time and yard for his walks. I cannot thank you both enough for loving on Pilot like we do and all the play time his heart desired. I trust these two with our dogs life and will certainly be using them again for pet sitting!!”
“Kelli is great. Our dog thrived under her supervision As a troublesome 6 month old puppy, he tends to be rambunctious. Kelli said he did really well and kept us up to date the entire time. Will choose Kelli again given the chance.”
“Melissa was amazing. We were really nervous about leaving our senior dog for the week but Melissa really calmed our nerves. She sent daily updates on Mugsy and was consistent with communication. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and felt welcomed in her home.”
“Kelly was absolutely wonderful! I was really nervous about leaving my dog since he had been attacked the last time I boarded him in a kennel. Kelli was wonderful with Finn (&me!). I feel so much better knowing we can leave Finn where he’ll be cared for and be safe!”
“Keri was extremely accommodating and professional during scheduling and throughout our fur baby’s stay. You can tell she knows her K9s and really loves them all. We had a rough start introducing our pup to hers, but Keri ensured our pup was comfortable and even noticed her needing extra privacy at times. She also gave us daily updates, pics and videos of her which put us at great ease!”
“Salene did an amazing job with our pup! This was her first time being away from home so we were a little nervous cause she can be a little crazy puppy! But Salene was very patient and it helped having her little doggies be friends with ours! She sent photos and updated every day and snuggled with our little one cause she loves the cuddles! Highly recommended and will be using her again in the future!”
“Derek and Kristina are amazing dog sitters! From our initial communication to picking up my dog, the experience was easy and comfortable. I have an elderly dog who is my baby and I never worried while he was in their care. Super sweet people, beautiful home, and the love for dogs really shines through.”
“April took excellent care of our dog Coffee, would highly recommend her services. I received timely updates and lots of pics during the stay and coffee seemed to be very happy with them and played with other furifriends. For any future needs of coffee stay, April will be my go to person :)”
“My Oliver loved his stay with Whitney and we would most definitely use her services again. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on how he was doing throughout his stay. She even taught him how to use the doggy door. =)”
“Jayci was amazing with my dog Chase. She let me get comfortable with leaving him with her and sent me pictures, updates, and videos throughout his stay with her. She was extremely nice and very capable at handling multiple large dogs together. Chase had an amazing time and was a happy tired dog when I got him back home.”
“Amazing Bertha and her family! They treated our baby as their own and received many pictures and videos during his stay. My baby was so happy there playing with Chess and had a great time. We were so comfortable and enjoyed our trip thinking that my baby was also in a vacation with a wonderful family. They followed all his special needs about his food, greeted him with a smile and provided utmost care. Chess is a very cute, friendly and a handsome boy along with kids in the family. We are so happy that we finally found a family more than anyone can wish for. As long as Bertha can offer the care, we will not look for another. Thank you so much for being there for us!!! Will see you soon.”
“Sabrina is amazing. She provides updates which includes pictures and videos. She took great care of our fur baby. Highly recommend! We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Alexandra did a wonderful job caring for our pup Leo. She would send us updates/photos through out our trip and I appreciated her love/care for our dog. I’d definitely recommend and would rebook with her in the future!”
“Leaving our dog mocha with Chris was a good call. He was very accommodating and welcoming, and our dog came back spoilt. We would want to avail his services again, any day.”
“This was my first time boarding outside of a pet resort and my dogs appeared to be well cared for. My oldest dog had started having seizures when boarded due to anxiety, and he had no issues with Silvana. Thank you!”
“Naga took such wonderful care of our Border Collie, Denver, while we were away for over two weeks. Throughout our trip, Naga regularly sent photos and videos, and in every single one, Denver looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Seeing how comfortable and content he was gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. It's clear that Naga genuinely loves and understands dogs, and we are so grateful for the attention, care, and affection Denver received during his stay. We would absolutely trust Naga with Denver again, and the next time we travel, Naga will be the first person we contact. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

About: Since I was a child I’ve always been around animals, big dogs to be exact. I’ve grown to learn how to watch them, wait on them, and treat them. In my family we’ve always treated pets as if they were your own children. So to me, it’s important to pass on that same respect to animals as I would to any other human being. I’ve learned to bath them, especially tiny and big dogs, although not in a professional setting, I probably have more fun than I should doing so. I’ve learned what to do and what not to do in regards of different breeds, meeting different types of people and actually following the preferences told by owners I’ve encountered. I am not a professional dog whisperer, but I will be very sure to treat your fur babies as one of my own at any time, anywhere. Pets are fun, and I have a real soft spot for the ones who need special attention. I am very close to a family who has had three beautiful great pyrenees mixes, all who have passed away during my 23 years of life, and I have experienced the life process. I’ve seen the over hyperactive puppy, the whines, the potty issues, the illnesses, and the aging process. I’ve seen the vulnerability of old bones, the struggle to climb steps they use to dash up on and I’ve felt pain of a ended life brought joy. Dogs, cats, and all pets included are very smart animals, they are very emotionally intelligent and being around them gives me a good mental boost! You can trust that I will take care of your fur Family. I’m currently studying for my LSATs so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of pets! I honestly may need this more than you know. Animals lighten my mood, give me a sense of peace and get me active, and due to that I’m so available! I have a fenced yard, and I have a beautiful trail in my neighborhood, and there is a dog park also. I am super aware of the pavement to paw temperature just in case. I enjoy health as well, and will be serious of dietary needs for your pet. I have also fostered a cat and a bunny my sophomore and Junior year of college, so I’m very gentle, considerate and can deal with tantrums as well!

“This is Tania’s third time watching our dogs. She has dog sat for my Great Danes twice before, which is amazing in itself, but this time I added my two small dogs and she did great. Tania is super kind and follows direction so well. I will absolutely continue using Tania as my dog sitter! She’s the best.”

About: I have a wide array of experience with caring for dogs and cats—from the corgi puppy who barks through the night to the one eyed 18 year old deaf and blind Shih Tzu who just needed love and my current 9 year old rescue who loves cuddles and walks. I have experience administering medication, working with tricky meal routines, cleaning and sanitizing after potty accidents, and giving lots of love and pets. I am a teacher at a local high school and am free all day every day during the summer and before 8:00 am and after 4:30 pm on weekdays during the school year as well as full availability on the weekends. My pets are an integral part of my family and I start and end the day with a dog walk. I have a fenced backyard. There IS a pool, but I also have a 10x10 cage back there for potty breaks if you have a water loving dog that you don’t want in the pool. I have my own four legged crew: Ebby the funny fat cat and Teddy the sweet rescue dog. We do have stairs in our home but if you have an older dog that struggles with arthritis, I can stay downstairs with them while they are in my home.
“Hannah was great! She provided a lot of updates and pictures and was willing to book with me at the absolute last minute, I felt very confident my pup was in good hands. Thanks!!”
About: I grew up with one dog in my house and have house/pet sit for family and friends. When I was getting my degree I worked at PetSmart in the Doggie Day Care. I’m a teacher and home more in the summer! I’m a teacher and will be home the majority of the day during the summer! Growing up my family dog’s routine was walks twice a day, feed twice a day, and given medication. I have a fenced in yard for your dog(s) to run around, sidewalks in my neighborhood to walk, and room to crate your dog(s) if thats what they need to feel comfortable. I currently don’t have a dog so they would have all the pets and snuggles!
“Gülay and Baris made my anxious little pup feel comfortable and happy. He had a great day with them evidenced by the photos and video they shared. Very communicative sitters who made the whole process easy! Will definitely book again.”

About: With 5 years of experience caring for pets for friends and family I enjoy being able to meet new pets. I have cared for pets overnight in my home, drop-in care, and last minute sitting. Being a pet owner myself I know the importance of knowing your baby is well cared for. I believe in full communication and daily updates for peace of mind. I am a remote worker with the ability to be around your pets all day and let them out to my fenced backyard to play and potty breaks. During my free time I enjoy taking pets on walks around our neighborhood or playing in the backyard with them. I have a fully fenced yard and I am at home all day giving me the flexibility to be present while I care for your pets.
About: Looking for a calm, pet-free home where your dog will receive lots of love and attention? I’d love to help! Hi! I’m Caitlyn, a teacher, wife, and mom of four. I know trusting someone with your dog is a big decision, and my goal is to make both you and your pup feel completely at ease. One of the things that makes our home unique is that we don’t have any pets of our own. Your dog won’t have to adjust to unfamiliar animals or compete for attention. Instead, they’ll enjoy a peaceful environment where they’re the center of our care. Our family truly loves dogs. My four children are gentle, kind, and always excited to welcome a furry guest into our home. Every interaction is closely supervised, and we’re happy to match your dog’s personality. If they love to play, they’ll have enthusiastic companions. If they prefer naps and quiet cuddles, we’ll happily give them the calm space they need. We also have a large, fully fenced yard where your dog can safely run, play, and explore. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I know that keeping a familiar routine helps dogs feel comfortable and secure. As a teacher, I’m home on weekends, holidays, and school breaks, which are often when families need dependable pet care the most. Throughout your dog’s stay, you’ll receive regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving home where your dog feels comfortable from the moment they arrive, and where you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pup! As a full-time teacher, I primarily offer boarding on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. During the school year, your dog will enjoy a consistent routine with morning care before work, afternoon and evening playtime, walks, feeding, and lots of family attention. During holidays and summer break, I’m home much more and can provide even more one-on-one care. I only accept bookings that fit my schedule so every dog receives the attention and love they deserve. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. We have a large, securely fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under supervision. Because we don’t have any pets of our own, your dog won’t have to compete for attention or adjust to unfamiliar animals. Our home is clean, smoke-free, and family-oriented. We have four children who absolutely love dogs, and all interactions are closely supervised to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Whether your dog enjoys playing fetch outside or curling up for a nap indoors, we’ll tailor their stay to their personality and routine. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is loved and well cared for.
“Thank you, Sruthi! Zamin loved both her days with you. I really appreciated how she kept me up to date with messages and videos. Especially when she sent videos of Zamin playing with other pups. Excellent communication; she replies within minutes. This really helped me be comfortable and not anxious.”
“We needed last minute care for Charlie and so glad we found Chery and family. She was so accommodating. Charlie was comfortable with her and she sent updates. Thank you so much!”
“First of all, I am so thankful that Naga accepted to watch Quincy at the last minute. She maintained great communication throughout the entire stay and constantly updated me about Quincy, which gave me peace of mind. Naga was also very thorough in making sure Quincy received the right care by asking questions and verifying her preferences and needs. I had to extend for a few extra hours and ended up being late picking up Quincy because our church activity lasted longer than expected, but she was very accommodating and understanding. I truly can’t thank her enough for taking such great care of my fur baby. I highly recommend Naga for her excellent communication, flexibility, and genuine care for pets!”

I currently work part-time teaching music lessons and do not work a typical 9-5 hours, often working outside of typical work hours. I have flexibility throughout the week to take care of animals.

About: I have two large breed dogs, and I can train dogs to do basic commands. I have taken care of animals ranging from rabbits and goats to horses. I have much experience with senior cats. I have cared for a cat for 17 years who was blind, and I just had to put down my 15 yr old cat due to thyroid issues for which I gave her meds twice a day. I have also bottle fed baby animals and had to assist one of my dogs when she had a litter of 11 puppies, which I cared for on my own. My only job right now is caring for my two dogs and my cat! So I have plenty of time to pet sit and or walk pets. I will care for the pets in my client's home according to their exact specifications. I can't bring other animals into my home as I already have 3 pets.
About: I was raised from the age of eight with my Pomeranian, Gizmo. I have 4 years of professional experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. My wife and I have always had at least one dog since 2006, most of the time we have had two. We currently have two dogs, our Mini Schnauzer/Cairn Terrier Bentley, and our Maltipoo, Prince, I am currently retired, so my schedule is your schedule, to include holidays, weekends, and short notice boarding/dog sitting and walking services. Bottom line, I am here for you and your dogs! We have a fenced in back yard for them to play in. I will also follow any special feeding instructions, to include times, special additives, or any treats. I only ask that you provide the food and treats your dog is used to; this will avoid any stomach upset from different foods.
About: I have worked in a mixed animal clinic for 3 years. I have a degree in equine business with preVet qualifications. I have taken care of pets and livestock since I could walk. I have experience with the youngest to senior pets. I’m currently available before work and after work to check in on your pets! I’m used to all different kinds of animals as well as several different needs. My dog is fully crate, leash, off-leash, and car trained and loves to play. I can crate your dog and give it the best care and attention just like mine gets! I have petsitted for multiple friends and family while they’re out of town.
About: I have been pet sitting/dog sitting since I was 10 years old. I’ve had dogs since I was a baby so grew up around them all the time! I’m available weekdays from 5 to whenever for dog sitting at home! I have breaks in between classes for dog walking and letting them out! I can easily crate your dog if needed! Take them outside with supervision! Walk them with a leash and bathe the dogs if that’s needed!
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals and the dependable, loving care I bring to every pet I meet. I grew up showing livestock, so being around animals, from dogs and cats to livestock, has always been second nature to me. That upbringing taught me responsibility, patience, and how to tune into what animals need, even when they can't say it out loud. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments, whether it's helping with puppy training, giving extra love to senior dogs, or just making sure your pup sticks to their routine while you're away. I'm also super communicative and always happy to send updates and photos. At the end of the day, I treat every dog like family, with tons of love, respect, and tail-wagging fun. I am a graduate from Texas A&M and I have free time on weekends to walk, feed, and check up on dogs. I am not allowed to have any animals at my house so this gives me the chance to give all of my love that I have for animals and help someone that is needing a sitter. Growing up I was around my dogs everyday. I went on walks with them, played and trained them and even took them to get pup cups. I would give pets my undivided attention when I am taking care of them and will treat them as if they were my own.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life, so working with animals comes naturally to me. I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, love, and attention to the little details that make them feel safe and happy. Whether it’s sticking to a strict feeding routine, going on long walks, or just giving extra cuddles, I make sure each pet gets the care they deserve. I’m reliable, calm, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities—from playful pups to shy cats. You can count on me to keep your pets comfortable while you’re away. I work overnight shifts, so I’m available for about eight hours after I get off in the mornings, up until around 3 PM each day. I’m also free all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays! My schedule gives me plenty of time for walks and pet care—right after I head home to feed my own fur-babies, of course When walking dogs, I always make safety my top priority. I use secure leashes and harnesses, stay alert to surroundings, and avoid unsafe or overly busy areas. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort level, pace, and behavior to make sure every walk is safe and enjoyable. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so you always know your pet is in good hands.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. What sets me apart is my lifelong dedication to giving every dog the same love, patience, and understanding I give my own. Before moving here, I was a foster mom for dogs in Puerto Rico and a proud member of OICA (Organization for the Welfare of Animals). During that time, I cared for dogs of all kinds — from shy rescues learning to trust again to energetic pups eager to explore the world. That experience taught me how to read their personalities, ease their fears, and make them feel safe and loved. I also have hands-on experience with senior dog care and know how to provide comfort and gentle support for older pups who need a slower pace. My own dog, Channel, is a joyful, friendly companion who loves meeting new friends and helps visiting dogs feel right at home. When your pet stays with me, they become part of my family. I provide reliable, attentive care and always make sure each dog gets the affection, playtime, and structure they need. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, long walks, or quiet companionship, I’m here to make sure your furry loved one feels safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way. 🐾💛 As a retired animal lover, I’m fortunate to have the time and flexibility to dedicate my days to caring for pets. My schedule revolves around making sure the animals I look after are happy, comfortable, and well cared for — never the other way around. Because I’m home most of the day, I can provide plenty of personal attention, consistent routines, and companionship. Morning walks, playtime in the yard, and quiet cuddle moments are a regular part of my day. I also enjoy keeping a calm, peaceful environment that helps pets feel relaxed and at ease, especially those who might be anxious or adjusting to a new space. Being retired also means I’m never rushed — I can take the time each pet deserves. Whether it’s giving a senior dog extra care, keeping up with an energetic pup, or spending quality time with a cat who loves company, pet care isn’t just part of my day — it’s what brings joy and purpose to it. 🐾❤️ I care for every pet in my home with love, patience, and attention, just as I would my own. Animals are never just guests — they become part of the family while they’re here. My home has a nice yard fenced yard with a covered patio, perfect for playtime, lounging, or a little sunbathing for dogs who enjoy soaking up the sun. I always keep a close eye on them to make sure everyone is safe and happy. Inside, pets stay with me at all times — they’re never left alone or kept apart. Whether we’re relaxing in the living room, playing, or simply enjoying quiet time together, they’ll always have company and care. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, comfortable, and right at home from the moment they arrive. 🐾❤️
About: I have been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds ranging from Labradors to German Shorthairs and Mastiffs to Miniature American Shepherds. No matter the size, energy level, or special needs you can trust your pet to me. I personally have bred, whelped, and raised two litters of puppies. I am confident in assisting in any potty training of puppies as well. Additionally, having three dogs of my own I know how difficult it can be to leave your dogs in someone else's care. I am very engaged with you during anytime I'm with your dog so you know how they're doing. I work remote and my schedule is very flexible. For the most part I have the ability to set my own schedule. The biggest benefit to me would be to schedule your time with your pet in advance so that I'm able to block that time on my work schedule. I make sure that my pets and the pets that are entrusted into my care are comfortable and content. In order to achieve this I use a variety of tools and tricks such as calm exercise, interactive play, and enrichment activities. I give as much love and attention as they desire without overstimulating or stressing them out. I pay close attention to any indications of stress or other ailments and keep the owners aware of all potential challenges.

“The Cross family took excellent care of our English Bulldog while we travelled over the holidays. We had lots of picture updates and had a great experience. We will definitely use them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Absolutely happy with Jessica! She kept me updated with pics and text messages and even gave my pup a bath before I picked him up! Her rates are reasonable and she is professional! Thanks Jessica for taking care of Waffles!”
“I have so many AMAZING things to say about Melissa and Roy!! First off, they are super communicative and quick with responses which put me at ease. From the meet and greet, all the way to pick up, they stayed communicating and sending pictures of our precious pup. During the stay, Melissa ended up needing to take our dog to the vet and was super nice and thoughtful with the entire process. They kept me updated all week long and I just know our pup enjoyed his time with them. They are some of the nicest and more caring people in the world and I know they took the absolute best care of our dog. To be honest, I dont think he wanted to leave because I know he enjoyed all the play time and yard for his walks. I cannot thank you both enough for loving on Pilot like we do and all the play time his heart desired. I trust these two with our dogs life and will certainly be using them again for pet sitting!!”
“Kelli is great. Our dog thrived under her supervision As a troublesome 6 month old puppy, he tends to be rambunctious. Kelli said he did really well and kept us up to date the entire time. Will choose Kelli again given the chance.”
“Melissa was amazing. We were really nervous about leaving our senior dog for the week but Melissa really calmed our nerves. She sent daily updates on Mugsy and was consistent with communication. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and felt welcomed in her home.”
“Kelly was absolutely wonderful! I was really nervous about leaving my dog since he had been attacked the last time I boarded him in a kennel. Kelli was wonderful with Finn (&me!). I feel so much better knowing we can leave Finn where he’ll be cared for and be safe!”
“Keri was extremely accommodating and professional during scheduling and throughout our fur baby’s stay. You can tell she knows her K9s and really loves them all. We had a rough start introducing our pup to hers, but Keri ensured our pup was comfortable and even noticed her needing extra privacy at times. She also gave us daily updates, pics and videos of her which put us at great ease!”
“Derek and Kristina are amazing dog sitters! From our initial communication to picking up my dog, the experience was easy and comfortable. I have an elderly dog who is my baby and I never worried while he was in their care. Super sweet people, beautiful home, and the love for dogs really shines through.”
“My Oliver loved his stay with Whitney and we would most definitely use her services again. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on how he was doing throughout his stay. She even taught him how to use the doggy door. =)”
“Jayci was amazing with my dog Chase. She let me get comfortable with leaving him with her and sent me pictures, updates, and videos throughout his stay with her. She was extremely nice and very capable at handling multiple large dogs together. Chase had an amazing time and was a happy tired dog when I got him back home.”
“Leaving our dog mocha with Chris was a good call. He was very accommodating and welcoming, and our dog came back spoilt. We would want to avail his services again, any day.”
“Naga took such wonderful care of our Border Collie, Denver, while we were away for over two weeks. Throughout our trip, Naga regularly sent photos and videos, and in every single one, Denver looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Seeing how comfortable and content he was gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. It's clear that Naga genuinely loves and understands dogs, and we are so grateful for the attention, care, and affection Denver received during his stay. We would absolutely trust Naga with Denver again, and the next time we travel, Naga will be the first person we contact. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“We would high recommend Jonai! She was great with our dog, sent many pictures and videos and provided a great weekend getaway for our dog so we didn’t have to worry. We would high recommend and will use again if the need arises.”
“we had a great experience. He’s very knowledgeable and took our dog out on plenty walks. Kept us updated with plenty of pictures. Definitely will recommend and will be using again. It’s rare to find someone who cares as much about our dog as his dog thank you so much”
“Kimmy did such a great job of sending us pictures and status updates throughout Jewels’ days. It’s obvious that she is committed to the little things that provide peace of mind.”
“T' Anna was also able to pick my pet, Thor, up. I was a little worried because Thor as a 90 pound dog does not know how to effectively get into a vehicle. Thor weighs nearly what T'Anna weighs but she was very professionally able to handle him. She sent pics and I never saw him that happy... Thor had never played with other dog close to his size. He was on a great " pet-cation" . I will certainly use T'Anna again to care for Thor”
“We are so happy to find Christy to look after our 1 year old Mochi. Christy is caring and very accommodating. Mochi had a great time hanging out with Christy, her 2 dogs, and her son. She keep us updated with photos and quickly reply our message. Will definitely use her service again.”
