“Sandy seemed to have a good time staying with Matthew. Matthew sent occasional updates and was easy to reach. He even stayed up for a late pick-up due to weather we ran into on our drive to pick our sweet Sandy!”
“Shannon is awesome, and has been so patient with my Dachshund over the past visits, as the dog acclimated to the new environment. With Shannon’s help (and medication administration!) she has gotten over her anxiety during boarding. My dog LOVES her!!”
“Will has been a godsend. He loves all of his little charges as much as they love him. I am boarding my little girl in a time of upheaval in our lives, and having a responsible, caring sitter has made an enormous difference in mine and my soft pup's lives. Thanks for everything, Will!!!”

“It is wonderful to be able to travel knowing Matthew is taking care of our special-needs cat. He spends time with her and takes care of all her needs. She is calm and content when we get home. Matthew is a treasure.”
“Geni is the absolute best. We are repeat customers and loved that she remembered our cats and their routine. We really appreciate her attention to detail and the sweet pictures we get when she’s finished.”

“Thank you so much for taking care of our two cats! Your updates were very thoughtful and you put in so much effort to make sure we knew our pets were being well cared for. We really appreciate it!”
“I am so lucky to have found Catherine. She’s easy to talk to and goes above and beyond. My two kitties were expertly cared for during my long weekend. I will definitely reach out to Catherine the next time I take a trip!”
“I can’t say enough good things about our cat walker, Mia! She has been absolutely amazing with my two ragdoll boys, Loki and Thor. Not only does she take them on their walks, but she also did drop-in visits while I was out of town—and I had complete peace of mind the entire time. What really sets her apart is how interactive and engaged she is with them. She doesn’t just show up and go through the motions—she truly spends quality time encouraging them to explore, play, and of course, get plenty of cuddles. It’s so clear she genuinely loves what she does, and even more importantly, she truly loves my boys. Loki and Thor adore her. They literally cry at the door when they know she’s coming, which says everything. Seeing how excited they get and how comfortable they are with her makes it an easy decision every time—I’ve already booked her multiple times and will continue to do so. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like her own, Mia is the one. She goes above and beyond, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“Alexis took care of our 2 special needs cats for 2.5 weeks, and did a fantastic job! She provided multiple photos and great updates with each visit, which were really appreciated.”
“Oline is fantastic, she was very good at getting my shy cat’s trust and always had great communication. The next time I need someone to watch my cat I will be going back to her.”
“Miki did a great job taking care of my kitten princesses while we were gone for a week. The daily check-ins with pics made me comfortable that they were well taken care of while we were gone!”
“Emily did a great job looking after my skittish cat, and on very short notice. My kitty even seems to be happy to see her! Very caring and professional. Would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Kristen is truly the best! She accepted my last-minute request, came over beforehand to take detailed notes, and gave my sweet old cat so much love and cuddles over the 3 days. Buckley is 19, so leaving her is hard—and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in Kristins care. She was thoughtful, caring, and wonderful. Highly recommend! ❤️”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 10 years. Everything from playful kittens to senior cats needing extra TLC. I understand that every cat has their own personality and preferences, whether they love cuddles, enjoy their space, or need special diets or medication. I’m comfortable with litter box cleaning, feeding routines, administering oral medications, and giving your kitty the attention and affection they deserve. Your cat's comfort and safety are my top priorities. I create a calm, stress-free environment and follow your instructions closely to make sure their routine stays consistent while you’re away. Whether it's playtime, brushing, or just quiet companionship, I'm here to provide loving and dependable care you can trust.
About: Lifetime pet owner and longtime animal shelter volunteer. Personal experience with medically complex pets has shaped my care to be more understanding of specific instructions and needs. Successful foster mom to two litters of kittens, I feel confident taking care of fur babies of all ages. Recent university graduate working part time while searching for my permanent fit. Wide availability means I can stick to your current routine. On days when I work I’m out of the house for six hours at a time but will be sure to notify you if shifts overlap with your scheduling needs. Hugs, pets and playtime free of charge! Happy to provide as many check-ins as you need outside of regular feeding schedules and potty breaks. The more time I spend with your pets the happier I’ll be!

“Eva and her family are the best, they send pictures and updates throughout the day. We have use them for both dog sitting and for boarding and loved both experiences. If they’re available I want to choose Eva first every time!”
About: I don’t just “watch” pets, I actively engage with them to make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and loved. I’m comfortable with puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of patience, as well as senior dogs who require a calmer environment, gentle handling, and close monitoring. I pay attention to routines, behavior changes, and specific instructions so your dog’s normal schedule stays consistent. Clear communication and photo updates are also a priority for me, so you always feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I prioritize creating a schedule around the pets I’m caring for. I make sure I have dedicated time for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins so each dog gets consistent attention and care. I’m organized and plan my days to avoid overbooking, which allows me to be fully present and attentive. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening routines, I make sure your dog’s needs come first and their schedule stays consistent. I create a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection so they feel right at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their usual environment and routine to minimize stress. I carefully follow all instructions, keep their space clean, and make sure they get consistent exercise, enrichment, and companionship.
“Jamie cared for our dogs for doggy daycare. They came back tired and happy which is all I could’ve hoped for! She sent lots of photos and gave my dogs plenty of attention and ways to play. I appreciate her willingness to care for my dogs but mostly I appreciated her ability to care for my dogs like they were her own. Will definitely use again!”
“Jason did such a good job taking care of my babies! I was out of the country and he was great about giving updates and sending pictures and videos daily! I will definitely be dropping my girls off again!”
“I highly recommend Shalini & Jeremiah D. They sent multiple pictures and kept me updated with everything my little pup was doing and I couldn’t be happier with them. Thank you guys for watching her and taking such good care of her”
About: I've been a Dog Mom for most of my adult life, I currently have two. A couple of years ago I took classes to learn to groom and care for dogs. I learned dog CPR, first aid and grooming skills. I have taken care of several of my family and neighbors dogs and decided to expand. I have an entire room dedicated to dog play, grooming and sleeping. My dogs sleep with me and your dog can too if that is what you like. I also have crates if that is preferred. I have a small doggie door that leads to my backyard that is securely fenced. I also have a security gate on my front porch to prevent run aways. I will love your fur babies just like my own while they are with me! I am retired and I am available most of the time. I do babysit my 1 year old Granddaughter sometimes, but will take in a baby friendly dog when she's here. I have a fenced yard and two other dogs to keep your fur baby company. Sleeping arrangements are as the parents prefer, in the bed, on the floor in a dog bed or in a crate. Dogs are temporarily separated during feeding time to avoid conflicts. I stick with parents preferences on treats, eating times, etc. I will send you pictures of your dog if you want. I will love your fur baby just like my own!
“Stephanie is very caring and attentive, I appreciated the communication and photos she provided while watching over my dog after her spay surgery. My dog was immediately comfortable with Stephanie, and that's rare. Will definitely be using her services again.”
About: Dogs have always been part of my life. I've been caring for them since I was 10 years old, and today I'm still the person family and friends call first for dog advice or when they need someone they completely trust with their pets. We work from home, so your dog won't be left alone for long stretches of the day. Instead, they'll be part of our daily routine with plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and naps in between. We have three young children who have grown up around animals and understand how to interact with them respectfully. Because of that, we welcome dogs that enjoy a family environment and all the extra love and attention that comes with it. Our home is set up with pets in mind. We have a spacious home, a fully fenced backyard, and gates available if dogs need their own space. Our cat's food and litter box stay safely upstairs, making it easy to keep everyone comfortable. We also share our home with our gentle 80-pound Lab/Rhodesian Ridgeback mix, who loves meeting new dogs, and our one-year-old cat. We take introductions slowly and always prioritize a safe, low-stress environment for every guest. Every dog has their own routine, and we're happy to keep things as close to home as possible. Whether your dog needs oral medication, follows a specific feeding schedule, sleeps in a crate, prefers sleeping in the bedroom, or has other daily habits, we're happy to accommodate them. We also use Barkbus for our own dog and have a trusted local groomer, so if you'd like your pup groomed during their stay, we're happy to coordinate that as well. One of our favorite features is that our backyard overlooks a golf course, giving your dog front-row seats to all the action. Whether they're keeping an eye on the golfers, celebrating a great drive, or wondering how that ball ended up in the water, there's always something entertaining to watch. Our goal is simple: to make your dog feel like they're staying with family while giving you complete peace of mind that they're safe, loved, and well cared for. Because I work from home, your dog will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. Potty breaks, playtime, walks, meals, and rest are naturally built into our daily routine, so your pup won't be left alone for long periods. I love keeping owners updated with photos and messages, and I'm happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medications, and other routines that help your dog feel at home. Your dog's safety and comfort are always our top priorities. We have a spacious home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. We introduce all dogs carefully to our gentle resident dog and always monitor interactions. Gates are available if a dog needs their own space, and we're happy to accommodate crate-trained dogs or any routines they follow at home. Our cat's food and litter box are kept upstairs, and we maintain a clean, calm environment where every pet is treated like family. Before each stay, we'll discuss your dog's personality, preferences, and any special instructions so we can provide the best possible care.
“Very friendly and kind , went the extra mile by sending frequent notifications. Great availability. Love the other pets allow socializing for my puppy.”

“Thanks so much for providing excellent care for our Cavapoo. We greatly appreciated the video and text message updates. Blaze is looking forward to us going out of town again so he can come back to play with Copper and Lancer. Thanks so much, William.”
About: I’ve been a proud dog parent to my lovable Lab Mix for the past 9 years, and I’ve enjoyed dog sitting for the last 3 years! Your pup will feel right at home here, as I only take in a maximum of 2 dogs at a time to ensure they get all the love and attention they deserve. We enjoy 3-4 walks each day, along with plenty of playtime at the neighborhood dog park. It’s all about keeping tails wagging and paws happy! I’m currently working remote so I have ample time to spend with your pet(s)! We walk about 3 times a day and spend lots of time in the fenced backyard. Welcome to my cozy home on the Frisco/McKinney border! I share my space with my sweet, laid-back 9-year-old pup who loves to nap and is super friendly. We enjoy 2-3 walks a day, and your furry friend will be cared for just like family. I have a crate, comfy bed, and warm blankets ready to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable during their stay.
About: I have fostered pets and cared for small dogs! I have also cared for hamsters, kittens, and elderly pets. I am happy to spend time with your pets! Hello! For new and existing clients, I would like to advise that my schedule has changed during Saturdays and Weekdays, as I have a part-time job and will be out from 8am-3pm. However, I organize pet sitting assignments based on my pet caretaking partner Micah's availability during times when I'm not available, in order to provide as much coverage as possible! Shoot me a message and we can organize and see if pet caretaking is possible during your preferred time frame! :) I make sure to keep my environment safe for pets by putting away cable cords, choking hazards, or anything else that may pose a safety risk to pets. For boarding, I have family members in the home! (Mom, grandma, and two siblings, all happy to keep an eye on pets in the home as well!) We just ask for boarding that dogs remain under 35 lbs due to fall risks and limited apartment space!
“Leaving my dogs with someone else for the first time felt a lot like dropping your child off at school for the first day — I was nervous and hesitant about using Rover at first. But after an unexpected situation came up, I’m so grateful we found Van and her family. For three days, they took such amazing care of my dogs. I provided their food, and Van and her family made sure they were fed, able to play outside in the yard, and got plenty of rest and love. The updates, pictures, and videos throughout the stay gave me so much peace of mind and made my days at work so much easier knowing my babies were happy and comfortable. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be reaching out to them again for future doggy daycare or boarding needs. Thank you again, Van and family, for treating my dogs like your own!”
“Vicki is the best! She treats our pup like her own and cares deeply about all the pets in her care. She’s responsive, accommodating, and gives frequent updates a well. We’re happy to have someone we can trust with our fur child. Thanks Auntie Vic!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats and truly enjoy spending time with animals.

I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I’ll treat your pets with the same care and respect I give my own.

About: Hello! My name is Erik and through growing up with cats and raising a rambunctious 6-year-old Golden Retriever, I'm the perfect active adult to take care of your animal friends. I work from home, giving me plenty of time for ball throws, tug of war, and enough snuggles and head scratches that your pet may never want to leave. I work from home full-time and take plenty of breaks throughout the day for walks, ball throws, and bathroom breaks! Because I already have a dog myself, regular breaks are already baked into my schedule. I have a fenced in yard and am within walking distance from several large grassy areas. Furthermore, working from home full-time allows me time to be attentive to your pet's needs!

“Alexandra is the best. Dexter was super nervous but she helped him get comfortable super fast and was doing everything at his pace. Dexter loved his walk with her. Everyone around her location with a dog NEEDS to book her; your dogs will love her 💯”
About: I have grown up with animals and currently have two dogs, Charlie and Chelsea! I grew up wanting to be a vet, which resulted in me learning all that I could about animals. I have so much love for them and would have a hundred of my own if I could! I am very responsible and respectful of what owners do and don’t want their pets to do. I have had both small and large dogs of my own throughout my life, so I am comfortable with all sizes and breeds. I work from home most days and have a flexible schedule. I love to get out and be active as much as I can during my week! I also love to relax, so an animal who just needs some company is great too. I have a fenced in yard at home and two friendly dogs (a Lab and a Border Collie Mix). They love to be outside and play.
“Megan is fantastic! She responded to my last-minute request and took excellent care of my senior dog. She kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me real peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
About: I love all pets and have had two dogs of my own. My first was a terrier mix and my current is a staffie, so I am well accustomed to larger dogs. Additionally, I have been trusted in multiple instances to take care of other people’s pets ranging from bully breeds to pugs. I would love the opportunity to make sure your pet is well taken care of and loved when you need it! Throughout my life I’ve been surrounded by various types of dogs, ranging from chihuahuas to pits, big energy to small, and puppy to senior! This has given me the knowledge and experience to provide adequate care for your pup no matter where they are in their life or how special their personality is! My favorite part about dogs is how expressive they are! They love showing love and really are a great best friend! Currently, I am a substitute teacher, so my availability fluctuates depending on the week. I care for your pets as if they are my own! I prioritize meeting their needs and wants, and making your fur baby feel safe and loved. I follow their food, medication, and potty break routines closely! I will send check-in photos and texts during my visits. I am very reliable when it comes to the safety and well-being of your pet. They will always be fed and/or walked on time, or whatever else they may need. I have a large dog and she can play a little roughly sometimes, so that isn’t a problem if yours is the same. I can guarantee that they will feel loved and cared for under my supervision.
About: I treat every pet like my own, giving them lots of attention, patience, and care.

I’m reliable, communicative, and always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine alongside my part-time job because I have a pretty open and flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my week around each pet’s needs, making sure I have plenty of time for walks, visits, playtime, and quality care. I always make sure every pet gets consistent attention and never feels rushed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special care. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment.

About: I have been successful pet owners for over 12 years. I am a mature adult and will keep my appointments. I love dogs and I love providing pet care services for families in our community. I am a stay at home mom. I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your puppy and walk them multiple times per day. Our neighborhood is very safe to walk in. I have a fenced in yard plus a very friendly mini schnauzer and one daughters. We walk Bella multiple times per day. Plus, we feed her on a consistent schedule. Right now, due to my schedule I can provide early evening care beginning at 4 pm and am available for evening care. Also, I work in the school and am available during holidays and my summer schedule is very flexible. I feed our dogs twice daily on a set schedule. Also, they recieve 3-4 walks daily. Our dogs are members of our family. I love our pets very much.
About: I own a dog myself and so Ive learned to crate and potty train her. As much as I love her I do understand every dog needs to learn respect to others. I am currently working full time with a set schedule for a while and it does change from time to time. But i do work 3-11pm 4 days and Sunday i work 7am-3pm. My dog is crate trained, so if needed she can be put away. I do have a spacious apartment, my cat tends to be shy around others. So he would run off, but as mentioned before with my dog, my cat can be out away also.
About: I've had cats and dogs ever since I've been alive. I have been pet sitting and dog walking for family, friends and neighbors for 20+ years. I am currently available Monday, Wednesday and Thursday during the daytime. I look forward to getting acquainted with you and your furry companion(s) and loving them as you do. I will care for your fur baby in your home and on the streets, sidewalks and areas that you feel are safest for your pet in your neighborhood.
About: What sets me apart is my personalized approach to pet care and my dedication to ensuring each pet feels comfortable, loved, and safe. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies who need training, play, and patience, to senior dogs requiring gentle handling, medication management, and extra TLC. Additionally, I focus on understanding each pet’s unique personality and routines, tailoring my care to their specific needs. With excellent communication, I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your furry family member is in great hands. For me, pet care is more than a service—it’s a passion! Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, as I prioritize providing consistent, loving attention to the pets I care for. Each day is structured around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and quiet relaxation to ensure the pets feel happy and secure. I adapt my schedule to accommodate each pet’s specific needs, whether it’s administering medications, offering extended outdoor exercise, or just snuggling on the couch. Pet care isn’t just part of my routine—it’s a passion. My week revolves around creating a safe, happy environment for every pet I look after, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting theirs. I provide attentive and personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether in my home or my client’s home. In my home, I ensure a safe, cozy, and pet-friendly environment where your dog feels like part of the family. This includes regular walks, feeding on schedule, plenty of playtime, and cuddles.

I respect your home, keeping it clean and secure while giving your pet the love and attention they deserve. Communication is key—I provide regular updates and photos to keep you at ease.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for a house full of pets—including a cat, parakeets, fish, and even a couple of snapping turtles—and have loved both cats and dogs throughout my life. As an adult, I was lucky enough to spend 11 years with our beloved German Shepherd mix, Evie. We completed obedience training together, and I have plenty of hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, routines, training reinforcement, playtime, and all the everyday care that comes with sharing your life with a dog. As Evie got older, I also gained experience caring for a senior dog through arthritis and, eventually, a period of significant illness. Her needs changed considerably during her final months, so I’m comfortable administering oral medications, keeping an eye on changes in appetite or behavior, adapting routines for an older or less-active dog, and understanding when something just doesn’t seem quite right. I’ve also cared for pets for neighbors and understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet while you’re away. Since losing Evie in 2022, we haven’t been ready to bring another pet into our family, so I’d genuinely love the opportunity to spend some time caring for yours. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and—most importantly—I truly enjoy being around animals. I’m self-employed and set my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to work pet care into my day. I’m generally available for morning visits beginning around 8:30 AM, as well as midday and afternoon care. I can build walks, potty breaks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention into each pet’s normal routine, and I’m happy to follow the schedule they’re accustomed to at home. I know consistency matters, especially when pets are away from their people, so I’m happy to follow the schedule they’re accustomed to at home. We are a family of four with two children, ages 10 and 7, and our home has a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. We don’t currently have any pets of our own, so visiting dogs won’t need to adjust to other resident animals. I know every pet has different routines, boundaries, and comfort levels, and I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding and walks to medications, crate routines, sleeping arrangements, and house rules. I’m also happy to learn about your pet’s personality, triggers, quirks, and favorite things before their stay so we can make our home feel as comfortable and familiar as possible.
“Thank you Kristy for your consistency in taking care of Sammy! It’s so important to feel secure when you’re far away from your pup & you offered that. I hope you will continue to work with us if in the future dog walking services are needed. Thank you again!”
“Jill arrived just a few minutes early so she could start Dash's walk right on time. Our tail wagged welcomed her at the door and really enjoyed his walk. This was the first time Jill B. walked out dog and we will definitely use her services again! Thanks Jill!”
About: I have loved caring for animals since the moment my family took us to get a dog and two cats at the age of 10. I have watched animals in the neighborhood growing up and into adulthood for friends, family and Neighboor's. I have owned one dog on my own into adulthood but she is no longer with me. I love watching and meeting new animals and I’m a snuggler and attention giver! I work remotely so I can watch your kiddos at my apartment which has 3 dog parks or I can watch from the comfort of your home or walk at either space! I can go on long walks at my place, go to the dog areas at my complex or come to your home at your pets comfortable level! I am 3 weeks remote out of the month and have plenty of time to give your pet attention, going on walks and playtime. Cuddles included! Pets are free to roam my apartment and sleep in my bed! If crate training I can definitely accommodate your routine to make your per most comfortable

“Sandy seemed to have a good time staying with Matthew. Matthew sent occasional updates and was easy to reach. He even stayed up for a late pick-up due to weather we ran into on our drive to pick our sweet Sandy!”
“As always, our pup was thrilled to be at his “hone away from home.” We never have to worry about him for a moment, except maybe about how much he’s being spoiled! Thank yiu, Amy and Luke. We love you!”
“Steven took such good care of my pup! He was sweet, very attentive, communicated well, and updated us throughout the stay with messages and pictures. He took care of my pup through tummy issues and gave him so much care attention. We'd be happy to board our pup with Steven again.”
“Book it and forget it! This was my first time boarding with Alexis and Sean and I was more than pleased with them. Right off the bat communication was great. They proposed a meet and greet which was a green flag. I knew pretty quickly I wouldn’t have anything to worry about. Great folks, beautiful house, no bs! They have a couple little ones running around to keep your dog occupied. I received daily updates and have no complaints whatsoever! Book with confidence.”
“Shannon is awesome, and has been so patient with my Dachshund over the past visits, as the dog acclimated to the new environment. With Shannon’s help (and medication administration!) she has gotten over her anxiety during boarding. My dog LOVES her!!”
“I received photos and video updates every single day of our trip and the pups came back so happy. We are so thankful for Mali to opening up her home the week of Christmas and letting the pups join in on some fun. We will be using Mali for any future trips!!”
“Taylor and family provided excellent care of Cooper for the 5 days we were gone. We loved getting messages and pics of him having fun. Taylor was so easy to communicate with too! We will definitely use them again for our boarding needs. Highly recommend!!!”
“Jocelyn is an awesome Rover. Her home is centrally located in Dallas and near a fenced dog park, which is perfect for play time even in the summer. She sent great pictures and updates both days, and communicating with her was super easy. Highly recommend her and hope to work with her again next time I need boarding!”
“First time our dog was boarded with a non-family member. I was nervous, but Jason too great care of our dog. He listened to our concerns and remedied them. I will definitely use Jason again in the future!”
“Benji and Stella had a wonderful time staying with Eva! I felt very comfortable leaving them with her and knew they would be well cared for - and they definitely were! I would recommend them for sure!”
“Once meeting Lauren, we felt completely comfortable leaving our dogs with her. She is so nice and welcoming. Our dogs got lots of attention and walks. We will absolutely have our dogs stay with Lauren again.”
“My dog just loves staying with Lu and her sweet dogs! I’ve lost count of the amount of times Lu has watched her at this point. Lu is consistently clear, communicative, attentive, and kind. 11 out of 10 recommend!”
“Van took exceptional care of my dog, Ren, while I was away on a two-week trip to Japan. Being so far from home, it gave me incredible peace of mind knowing Ren was in such caring and capable hands. Van kept me updated throughout the trip with photos and messages, and it was obvious that Ren was happy, comfortable, and well loved. When I picked Ren up, he looked healthy, relaxed, and had clearly been treated like family. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and who genuinely cares about your pet, I highly recommend Van. Thank you again for taking such great care of Ren! 🐾”
“We had a last minute trip come up and were so grateful to find Luong and his family who took amazing care of our two dogs! They took to him immediately and came back tired and happy—he clearly loves dogs and vice versa. Thank you for the peace of mind on our travels!”
“Pete the Pointer had a relaxing Thanksgiving day with Elizabeth. She has the charm to make an up tight high energy GSP's tail wag and enjoy the day of pet car. ELIZABETH IS A Super Duper Gal!”
“Carolyn took excellent care of our dog Aperol while we were away for over 10 days. It was his first time without us, and although he really missed us, Carolyn made sure he was comfortable and happy throughout. Despite him being a bit challenging (he's not neutered and isn't crate trained), she handled everything with ease. We highly recommend her services!”
“Jamie was amazing! She sent me many pictures and videos of my dog throughout her stay. I know my dog was in great hands and that gave me peace of mind during my trip. I have already rebooked with her for next week!”
“Matt &Tiffany did a fantastic job taking care of my dog Skylar I received pictures everyday and messages about how her stay was going. I could not have asked for a more caring family, true dog lovers! Highly recommend this family and will definitely use them again.”
“Jen, Austin, and their family were absolutely fantastic! They watched Laffy for a day over Labor Day weekend and took such great care of him. I really appreciated their communication style; the updates they provided had a very natural and caring rhythm to them. I highly recommend them to anyone who has a dog that is good with kids. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Laffy!”
