“Rochelle has an excellent arrangement in her home for indoor and outdoor containment and play spaces. Our pups are well cared-for and happy to see Rochelle when we need a sitter. Thanks for everything 🥰”
“Sheila is amazing! We have booked with her multiple times for the last few years now. She’s the only sitter I want to leave my boys with. I have no doubt my fur babies will be safe and taken care of. She provides details about their stay and behavior. We appreciate her very much.”
“What a great weekend my dog had with Richard and Stephanie. They were very mindful of my sweet senior dog. So much love and tender care. He sent pictures and videos of her and her antics. This is the first time she hasn't lost weight or hasn't eaten the first day of her stay. I highly recommend Richard and Stephanie.”
“I can tell that Axle had the most amazing time with this very sweet and special couple. They loved him like he was their own and I even felt like he was bored when I excitedly got him back home to our routine. He loved being there that much!”
About: I love dogs and cats. I grew up having 2 dogs, that yearly gives birth for 4-6 pups, and 3 cats , that also gives birth almost yearly. I am doing pet sitting because I can't afford having my own pet as of now. I have 3 kids of my own and I also run an In-Home Childcare. But I also want my kids to grow up being around pets. Being able to take care of pets brings back mg good old memories when I was still a child. I may have my day job with kids but I know I can still take care of dogs and cats at the same time. We have an unfence front yard but there is also a park just around the corner so walking and playing wont be that hard. I may have a work but I am still able to take care of your furbabies same time as I take care of my own. I have my own pup that can be a good friend and company for yours. He is good with cats so it will be a great playdate for everyone.
“Thank you so much for taking care of my baby while I was away. It was so great knowing he was in such great hands. Thank you for the pictures and little updates. That always helps me relax more knowing he is doing so well. I definitely recommend and will definitely book again in the future!”
“Really fun for the pups. Just the right amount and timing of outdoor play (during very hot days!). Great oversight of dog interactions, for heading off any trouble. Very flexible on drop-off/pick-up times. Thanks, Marci!”
“I don’t think there are enough words to express how amazing and wonderful Amanda is!! Her daily communication and pictures provide reassurance your baby is being loved on and is happy. I had never left my puppy dog, and she made it so easy. Hands down, the absolute BEST home away from home for your fur baby there is!!! ❤️”
“Lacy was very caring and loving with our pup! She made sure to inform us of his daily activities with pictures and updates. We would definitely recommend and will be rebooking for future stays.”
“This was my first time having our dog to board with Lauren and family and I must say that I was very pleased! They welcomed our GiGi into their home and treated her like she was their own. She will definitely go back if availability is there.”
“Amazing experience! Our dog is timid and Dayna made her feel totally comfortable and welcome! She sent updates throughout the visit to keep us in the loop. We appreciate her patience with our dog and will definitely book with her again!”
“Anthony and his family are the best in taking care of Fendi. She is always well fed, so clean , and so happy. She loves it when we drop her off so much that we almost feel bad. Also, when our flight was late, Anthony was very accommodating in keeping her another night so that we could get in. He really is great.”
“Cheri was excellent! She helped me out big time with a last minute overnight stay, and lilah loved her time there. You know you have the right sitter when your dog can't wait to get in the door when you are dropping them off”

“As always Natalia and her family were amazing with our dogs. One dog developed an infection from a surgery he’d had a couple of weeks before and they helped me with taking him to the emergency vet and helping with his medication. My dogs come home so happy and relaxed after playing with their dogs and being spoiled with hugs. I can’t recommend Natalia enough. Thank you!”

Updates, good pictures, great communication...and even gifted them each a toy. Could not say enough about her.”

“"I recently had the pleasure of working with Sara, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From the very first meeting, it was clear that she truly cares about dogs and their well-being. Sara took the time to get to know my dogs, Zoey & Buster, and made sure to understand their routine, preferences, and any special needs. Sara did two drop in visits each day & besides providing loving care for my dogs, she watered my plants, brought mail in, and made sure the house was ok. I received regular updates and adorable photos that put my mind at ease. It was evident that Sara provided my senior dogs the human touch they need which left my dogs happy and content when I returned home. I highly recommend Sara to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. Her passion for animals and attentive care made all the difference for me and my two senior dogs. Thank you so much for your wonderful service!"”
“I booked pet sitting for my two cats, Bane and Bella, who can be very shy and sensitive in new environments. They were nervous at first and even stopped eating for a couple of days, but Mariah was incredibly patient and gentle with them throughout their stay. She did everything she could to help them feel safe and comfortable, and she kept me updated so I always knew how they were doing. Even though my cats took some time to adjust, I truly appreciate the care, effort, and kindness she showed them. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and wants them to feel at ease.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs of different breeds and personalities, including my four dogs at home — two dachshunds, a yorkie, and a schnauzer. Over the years, I’ve been responsible for many aspects of their daily care, from feeding and walking to bathing, grooming, and administering medication when needed. Caring for several dogs at once has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize each dog’s unique needs and behavior.

I also have experience caring for other people’s pets in their homes through pet sitting for family and friends. I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and to follow their normal routines as closely as possible.

About: I don’t just take care of the family furry paw members. I watch over the whole house. I make sure everything is taken care of while they are away. They are my first priority and my last when I’m helping someone else out. I take care of them before leaving for work and visit them when I return from work. It also depends if I’m staying at the house or just making stops in between the days. I have a fenced yard with a patio that is separate from the grass area. I have a doggy door so they can go in and out if they know how to use one. If not they learn while I have them in my care. My fur babies love playing with other dogs. If I’m at the clients home, they get lots of love and attention. I make sure they get their playing time in multiple times a day before bed time. If it’s not to hot I do try to squeeze a walk in even if it’s a small one.
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and have always considered them part of the family. I’ve cared for medium-sized dogs like beagles and cocker spaniels, as well as larger breeds like huskies and German shepherds. I’m also a big cat lover—I currently live with three of them! As an experienced pet owner, I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, brushing, and bathing pets. I’m also able to administer medication if needed. I’m happy to care for other pets like fish or birds, and I can bring in your mail or water your plants while you’re away. I have two children who also adore animals. Sometimes they enjoy coming along with me to walk or feed pets, but only with your permission. If you prefer I come alone, I will absolutely respect that. I work full-time in education, so I have all-day availability during the summer and school holiday breaks. During the school year, I’m available after 3:30 p.m. on weekdays and all day on weekends to care for your furry friends. I’m happy to be flexible when I can—just reach out and we’ll see what works! I treat every animal I care for with love, patience, and respect. Pets are truly a gift, and I will always do my best to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I appreciate clear instructions and am always happy to send updates and photos so you feel connected and reassured while your pet is in my care.

“Rochelle has an excellent arrangement in her home for indoor and outdoor containment and play spaces. Our pups are well cared-for and happy to see Rochelle when we need a sitter. Thanks for everything 🥰”
“Sheila is amazing! We have booked with her multiple times for the last few years now. She’s the only sitter I want to leave my boys with. I have no doubt my fur babies will be safe and taken care of. She provides details about their stay and behavior. We appreciate her very much.”
“What a great weekend my dog had with Richard and Stephanie. They were very mindful of my sweet senior dog. So much love and tender care. He sent pictures and videos of her and her antics. This is the first time she hasn't lost weight or hasn't eaten the first day of her stay. I highly recommend Richard and Stephanie.”
“I can tell that Axle had the most amazing time with this very sweet and special couple. They loved him like he was their own and I even felt like he was bored when I excitedly got him back home to our routine. He loved being there that much!”
“Really fun for the pups. Just the right amount and timing of outdoor play (during very hot days!). Great oversight of dog interactions, for heading off any trouble. Very flexible on drop-off/pick-up times. Thanks, Marci!”
“I don’t think there are enough words to express how amazing and wonderful Amanda is!! Her daily communication and pictures provide reassurance your baby is being loved on and is happy. I had never left my puppy dog, and she made it so easy. Hands down, the absolute BEST home away from home for your fur baby there is!!! ❤️”
“Amazing experience! Our dog is timid and Dayna made her feel totally comfortable and welcome! She sent updates throughout the visit to keep us in the loop. We appreciate her patience with our dog and will definitely book with her again!”
“Anthony and his family are the best in taking care of Fendi. She is always well fed, so clean , and so happy. She loves it when we drop her off so much that we almost feel bad. Also, when our flight was late, Anthony was very accommodating in keeping her another night so that we could get in. He really is great.”
About: Hi! I’ve had over 10 years of experience caring for and working with both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I have experience with basic training, administering lots of patience and love, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’ve also helped foster pregnant female animals and cared for newborn litters, so I understand the extra attention, gentleness, and responsibility that some pets may need. Your pets will be treated like family in my care, and I’m happy to provide updates, photos, playtime, walks, and plenty of affection to keep you at ease while you’re away! 🐾 I work from home so I am actively able to provide daily outside playtime and potty time during the day and some much needed sun bathes for the sun bathers. I am able to provide a good feed schedule as well treat times! It is a pleasure to be able to work from home and effectively care to the needs of each furbaby! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your furry family member. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and individual needs to ensure every pet receives personalized care, patience, and plenty of affection. I believe communication is extremely important, so I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and check ins for peace of mind. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, young, or senior, I strive to make them feel secure, loved, and at home in my care. 🐾
“Had a last minute (less than 12 hour notice) need for overnight boarding and Laura B. came through! As usual Daisy had a great visit and feels like home at Laura’s house. She is my go-to for Rover-ing! Thanks again! 10/10 would recommend!”
“I had a good experience in boarding my 2 Rottweilers ages 9 and 11 months to Luis. My female pup is on her development age where she acts skittish and growls when approach by people she does not know. Because of this behavior and having a big pup, I requested a meet and greet to see if Luis can handle my dog. On the meet up, as expected my female pup acted nervous and growled to Luis but Luis was so patient and gentle to took away her fear and slowly earned her trust. During my dogs 3 night stay, Luis took care of my pups like as his own pet. My pups really had vacation of their own, enjoying to Luis’ beautiful dog resort while my family are out of town. Luis has perfect place for dogs where they can have fun for a lifetime.”
“Mrs. Trudie and her husband was absolutely wonderful. We had a last minute trip and they came through. When we picked Blaze up, the looked so happy. We will definitely book with them again.”
“Absolutely the most amazing pup sitter! My Pete was so happy in every photo and video sent. My dog mama heart was so at ease leaving him knowing I could depend on them to give him the love and attention he is used to getting at home. I am so thankful and highly recommend if you need a sitter for your babies!!!”
“I had to go out of town and did a last minute booking. This was my first time using a sitter and I was a little nervous. Madison was great and took very good care of my puppy. I will definately book her for future sitting service.”
“Jamielynn was amazing with my two big boys! She watched them for almost a week and they came back clean, happy, and healthy! I can tell she knows her stuff about dogs as one of my pups had some tummy trouble the first day and she contacted me right away to ask if she could switch up his diet a bit to help and of course it did! I would definitely have her and her lovely family watch our precious boys again! Appreciated getting the photo updates occasionally too as I was missing them so much.”
