“Jay is so great! Left my 5 year old, super energetic lab mix with her and she handled him beautifully! I always worry that he will overwhelm people with his high energy... but Jay had no issues, and I had pictures and updates regularly throughout the entire stay!”
“Myrna was great with my little guy! She gave updates the whole time I was away and helped with his anxiety while I was out of town. She made sure he had everything he needed and more! Thank you Myrna!!”
“Finally, we know Sushi is in good hands with Victoria when we travel! He falls right on line with the pack. She sends great updates and pictures, is in constant communication with you if necessary, and offers lots of flexibility around drop offs and pick up times. This was Sushi’s second 8+ day stay. There will be more. Top notch!”
“From the very start, Matt impressed us with his prompt, thoughtful, and thorough communication. That same level of care carried through our meet-and-greet and throughout our puppy’s stay. We loved receiving his twice-daily updates and photos — it was clear our dog was not only well cared for but truly happy. When we returned from our trip abroad, jet lagged and exhausted, Matt gladly agreed to keep our pup an extra night so we could rest. When we picked him up, it was obvious how loved and well looked after he’d been. We couldn’t recommend Matt more highly and will definitely be booking with him again.”
“This was the longest time I've been away from my pup and Michelle did another amazing job. He always looks like he's having the best time with Milo and I appreciate all the updates and pictures they send! So happy to have found a great sitter for my boy!”
“My pup Puccini has stayed with Peyton three times now, all have been boarding stays at the sitter's home. Puccini always has a great time with Peyton's baby and dog. She comes home exhausted from all the play and fun she's had. Peyton is a great dog sitter that I highly recommend!”
“Another great stay with Cyndi! Really appreciate all of the pictures and communication she provides throughout the stay. Our pup is always well taken care of and happy while in her care. Thanks Cyndi!”
“Jesse was so great with Zoey. He sent lots of photos, took her on a lot of walks and spent cuddle time with her. It’s clear he truly loves animals. We’d love for Zoey to stay with Jesse again.”
“From start to finish, Michaela did a wonderful job watching our little dog Coco! She always responded in a timely manner and kept in touch with us, sending pictures and updates daily. We’re so grateful that Coco was loved and taken well care during our trip abroad. We would highly recommend Michaela if you should need a loving and caring pet sitter!!🥰🐾”
“Laneise made boarding with her so easy. She was so chill and flexible about drop off and pick up during the hectic holiday and that helped a lot! Our dogs loved being at her house and felt right at home. She has a lot of experience with animals and grooming so that is a huge plus! We are so thankful to have found her and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Susan is not only a wonderful sitter, she loves pets like as if they were her own! Susan has been sitting my 2 long haired cats since March when I had an unexpected death in the family. I could not find anyone to sit for my 2 cats with such short notice, I was in a pinch. Susan came to my rescue and responded quickly! I'm till this day very grateful to her! When I came back from my trip and picked my cats up from her, I had a hard time getting them back in their carrier! They didn't want to leave! I was so happy that my cats felt comfortable with Susan. I didn't mind them not wanting to leave and giving me a run around her house for half an hour trying to get them in their carrier. Susan is loving, caring and very knowledgeable about cats and she has given me pointers on challenges I have had with my cats, so she is not just a person that watches your pets. I'm very happy I found Susan, she is wonderful and my cats love her! I highly recommend her services!”
“Amanda has great communication before and during our dog’s stay. You can tell their family really love dogs and care for them while we are away! Have booked Amanda and their family twice and our dog loves visiting them.”
“This was a great experience for us and for our 1 year old golden! I received many pictures and videos throughout the day of him playing and enjoying himself. It gave us such peace of mind. It was very clear to us that he was very well taken care of.”
“Panda had a great time with Jennifer and her family. We appreciated the pictures and videos she sent, which showed how well Panda was being cared for. We’re very happy with the experience and hope to have Panda stay there again!”
“I am very pleased with the service I received from Miguel, he kept me up dated with the dogs everyday. The were happy and treated very well. I will use him for any further trips I take. Thank you for such a great job 👍”
“Amy and Grant are wonderful. They were welcoming and flexible with Ollie’s needs, especially as their own pup was recovering from an injury. They have a nice big yard for play, communicated regularly, and it was obvious they cared to make Ollie’s stay comfortable for him and their family.”

“We had an exceptional vacation to Scotland because of the care and love provided by Michael. The daily reports, photos, and updates let us know that our Princess was happy during our leave.”
“Abbi, was thorough and followed every instruction I asked her to do with my senior special needs pup. She was also extremely flexible, which we needed unexpectedly. She provided me an update and I knew my boy was being taken care of. With him being special needs I need someone to be attentive to every detail of his care, she was and she put my mind further at ease when she followed up with me without asking. We will use Abbi again.”
About: I have always had a cat in my household and was blessed to work in an animal shelter with cats of all spiciness. I have experience in giving medicine, cleaning ears, trimming nails, as well as the typical litter box cleaning and socialization. I have a talent of bringing scared kitties out of their shells and building their trust on their terms.
“Chelsea did a wonderful job! She was greeted with a puke mess on the carpet to clean up. So sorry about that! Sienna did well--as much as she does when I'm gone. I'm sure she enjoyed getting out for a walk.”
About: I have had cats my entire life and have extensive experience caring for them through all stages of life. Growing up with cats taught me the importance of understanding their individual personalities, routines, and needs. In my adult life, I have had two cats of my own. One of them I raised from a kitten and cared for throughout his entire life until he was 13 years old. This experience gave me firsthand knowledge of kitten care, adult cat care, and the special attention and support senior cats need as they age. I am comfortable with daily feeding routines, litter box maintenance, administering medications when needed, and providing companionship while respecting each cat's unique temperament. Having lived with and cared for cats my whole life, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them.
“Victoria was wonderful in taking care of the kittens! She was on time everyday and sent wonderful updates of the babes. They were well loved and cared for we are so grateful!”
“Caitlyn was awesome in taking care of our elderly cat. She was dependable and took care of our cat as if it was her own. We highly recommend her and will be calling on her again.”
“Randi went above and beyond to make sure our animals were taken care of. She even voluntarily took home a chick that could not walk and fixed it's leg so it can get around on its own now. She also watered our plants and brought in mail while we were gone. She seems to know a lot about dogs and is a wealth of info on chickens, as well. Some of my chickens were not doing so well and thanks to her advice, they are looking healthier. I'd highly recommend her.”

I have experience with walking, feeding, playtime, administering medications, and maintaining each pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

Because of this, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. My flexible availability allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and last-minute scheduling needs whenever possible. I love staying active, so spending time outdoors walking and caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy during this transition period before starting work.

I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I always strive to create a calm, dependable, and comfortable experience for both pets and owners. I live in a pet-friendly environment with plenty of safe areas for walks and outdoor time, and I carefully follow each owner’s home instructions regarding routines, medications, feeding schedules, and special needs. I’m attentive, responsible, and communicative, and I’ll always make sure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. 🐾

“Peyton was amazing! Checked in with us regularly and ensured Jupiter had a great time. We will definitely book with Peyton again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our sweet girl!”
About: As an animal lovers, I promise to treat your pet like my own. They’ll be in good hands with me for the duration of their stay. My dog has a strict routine as I believe taking care of pers works better with a specific schedule. He wakes up, gets fed, gets taken out, is given treats, among everything else at the same time. Every day. I work from home and that makes it easy to adjust our schedule. My dog gets taken out early in the morning and fed. After he then gets taken back out later that morning. In addition, we spend some time outside in the afternoon during lunch. In the evening, he’s fed and taken back out for a bit. Later at night, he’s taken out once more and given a dental treat before bed time.
About: I've loved dogs for the longest time and ever since I've had my own, you quickly realize they are more than a pet, they are family. My dog and I will treat your dog just like family during their visit. I succeeded well in training my dog on my own from house training, to off leash, to playing hide and seek, and I understand the important component of upholding and instilling any of your training while you're not present. As of June 30th, I no longer work remotely, but work very close to home. I still will have plenty of time to give your pup comfort and attention throughout the day. I am available most weekdays and weekends, but may become more limited depending on the season. I have 1 dog, a small Yorkshire Terrier who is known as Mr. President because he loves to greet and befriend each pet or person he sees, no matter the size. He is super friendly and playful and would love to be a great friend and playmate with your pup. I can easily crate your dog if needed with one you provide or with one of my own crates or expandale play pens. My yard is open, but there is plenty of space for fun. I enjoy long walks, so if your pup needs to get in multiple miles, I can make that happen. I have a multi level townhome. Dogs are allowed anywhere in the home except for the kitchen. If your dog loves the outdoors, i have a small deck and a small enclosed front balcony they can hang on. There are plenty of toys and puzzles, but you are of course welcome to provide their favorite toy.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t say enough wonderful things about Miguel and his wife! They took amazing care of my fur baby, Church, for the past three days, and the experience was absolutely delightful. From the moment we met, Miguel made sure that Church felt comfortable and safe, even introducing him to their own dog to help them get along. His understanding of dog language, especially with big dogs like mine, is truly impressive. Miguel and his wife are such pleasant, caring people. They kept me informed every step of the way, sending updates and even videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. They’re incredibly accommodating, even fitting us in on short notice, which I really appreciated. Church came back home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. I could tell he had a great time because he’s been so content and relaxed. I’m beyond grateful for their kindness, professionalism, and the genuine care they showed my dog. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and amazing with dogs, Miguel and his wife are the best choice. Thank you both so much! How does that look?

Pets in my home will be able to learn basic manners, enjoy simple and small play sessions that help your dog in building confidence and exercising their social skills (and their muscles). Pets out of the home I do my best to divide care, socialization, and love as if their own parent was right there with them! Plus, as an avid lover of the great outdoors, I strive to take any furry friends with an activity level similar to mine out into the world. From hikes, to beach trips, I am certainly all about that adventuring-outside lifestyle!
“My husband and I were in town on vacation with our dog and she was having separation anxiety when we would leave her alone. So we booked with Sandra & she did awesome. Thank you so much for making our date night relaxing and not worrying about Kona. I would highly recommend Sandra. She was very nice and welcoming into her home and the neighborhood was nice. Thank you again!”

About: I've been caring for animals since I was 7 years old, and my love for pets has only grown over the years. As an adult, I worked at an animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I have also adopted and cared for three dogs of my own throughout every stage of their lives, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring extra patience, attention, and specialized care. This experience has given me a strong understanding of daily pet care, administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior, and providing the love and comfort pets need to feel safe and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, companionship, or extra attention due to age or special needs, I am committed to providing reliable, compassionate care while you're away. I am currently in between jobs, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide your pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Whether your furry family member enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I can tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. As a lifelong pet owner with experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, I understand how important it is to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. From energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care, I am committed to treating every animal as if they were my own. I have a fully fenced backyard with a 5-foot chain-link fence, providing a safe and secure space for your pet to play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. I do not have neighbors directly adjacent to my yard, so there is minimal concern about pets being distracted or stressed by animals on the other side of the fence. I am a lifelong animal lover and currently share my home with a senior dog, whom I've raised since she was 8 weeks old, and a young cat who has been part of our family since he was 8 weeks old as well. Having cared for pets through every stage of life—from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring extra attention—I understand that every animal has unique needs and routines. When your pet stays with me, they will be treated like a member of the family. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can feel at home while you're away. I personally allow my pets on the furniture, but I fully respect each owner's preferences. If your pet has specific rules, routines, feeding schedules, medication needs, or restrictions, just let me know and I will be happy to follow them to ensure consistency and comfort during their stay. I believe communication is important, so I am also happy to provide updates, photos, and messages while your pet is in my care, giving you peace of mind knowing they are safe, happy, and well loved.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was little. I adore all breeds, ages, and sizes. I'm very attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I currently work at a dog pet resort, so I have plenty of experiences with all sorts of dogs. I currently work part time, and am available pretty often!

I'm very respectful of any safety rules you may have, and will never cut corners when it comes to the well-being of your pup.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—seriously, rabbits to goats, and everything in between. Right now I care for dogs, chickens, rabbits, and a cat, and I also have experience pet sitting for families from when I was in high school. In my 20s, I’m excited to help other animal owners get to enjoy a vacation or even a little break like a date night, without having to worry. My love for animals really shows, and I’m totally comfortable with both big dogs and smaller ones—I’m happy to care for every breed. I’m willing to have animals stay at my home, but they absolutely need to be comfortable around other animals. I can also drive to your place and stay at your home if that’s what you prefer. I work from home, so I’m available as often as you need me, and if you need me to stay overnight to watch your furry friend, I can definitely arrange that. With all that said, I’m excited to help in any way I can—because I genuinely love what I do! I’m currently working from home as a Sales Executive at a HR company. I take my pups out every 2 hours for potty breaks and to throw the ball for my very active GSD dog. I get off around 5:30PM M-F. So if you need me to stay at your home to watch your pets while I work throughout the day- that’s no problem! Or I can most definitely take breaks throughout the day to come take your animal out and/or just give some snuggles! I am free on the weekends and can make really anything work. Just give me a time and place and I’ll be there! I have a huge back yard and plenty of space for your dog to run around! It is not fenced, so must have good recall or I can just walk them on a leash. If your dog is coming over to my house they must be good with other animals. I have a male Belgian tervuren (fixed) who’s pretty shy at first, but warms up quickly and would love a play buddy! And then I have a male Dachshund (fixed) who sleeps all day. I do crate my dogs while I’m away, and they can be crated just to give your pet some space to decompress. My cat is in a separate room so she will be away as well.
About: Hello! My name is Kijo.. I have 15 years of experience with different breeds and beautiful personality types of dogs and cats. I also have 4 years of experience with reptiles ( I do NOT) own any. I have 2 beautiful Portuguese water dogs that are very friendly with all animals ! So we stay away from red zone/aggressive pets that way no one gets hurt. ❤️ Potty time will Always be every 4 hours in the house hold! I'll also be sending photos and videos of playtime and at random times of your furbabies! I currently stay home full time, so I will be available to care for your pets for as long as needed. It'll be a pleasure for us both since there's extra pets and extra play time. ❤️ I allow all pets to sleep on the bed, get on the couch, enjoy play time and they get walked. I'm old school so I don't really let the pets roam around the back yard and it's a great source of exercise.
About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I love all breeds. I enjoy getting dogs to play and do tricks for treats. My family and I enjoy making your pet family. Sleeping cuddling and lots of attention is what they get while here. Most dogs don't want to leave when they come. I have several repeat dogs and they get out of the car and run to the house. Where they have an abundance of toys bones and beds to relax on. I believe the dog should be on your schedule so I do my best with that. Huge yard provides safe exercise time. Sunbathing an added bonus. I will even bathe your pup upon request. So don't stress and let me take care of the rest. I currently do this part time. Around working as a waitress part time. I'm available every 4 to 6 hours for pet care. I love this job. I have crates and plenty of space to separate if needed. I have filtered water. Treats of all types.

Dogs in my care receive consistent routines, appropriate exercise, and calm, confident handling—not just supervision. I am best suited for clients who value reliable, knowledgeable care and want their dogs maintained in a structured environment while they are away.

Dogs are always handled securely on leash unless otherwise specified, and I am attentive to environment, behavior, and stress signals. My goal is to maintain a calm, consistent, and safe environment so your pet feels secure while you’re away.

“Myrna was great with my little guy! She gave updates the whole time I was away and helped with his anxiety while I was out of town. She made sure he had everything he needed and more! Thank you Myrna!!”
“Finally, we know Sushi is in good hands with Victoria when we travel! He falls right on line with the pack. She sends great updates and pictures, is in constant communication with you if necessary, and offers lots of flexibility around drop offs and pick up times. This was Sushi’s second 8+ day stay. There will be more. Top notch!”
“From the very start, Matt impressed us with his prompt, thoughtful, and thorough communication. That same level of care carried through our meet-and-greet and throughout our puppy’s stay. We loved receiving his twice-daily updates and photos — it was clear our dog was not only well cared for but truly happy. When we returned from our trip abroad, jet lagged and exhausted, Matt gladly agreed to keep our pup an extra night so we could rest. When we picked him up, it was obvious how loved and well looked after he’d been. We couldn’t recommend Matt more highly and will definitely be booking with him again.”
“My pup Puccini has stayed with Peyton three times now, all have been boarding stays at the sitter's home. Puccini always has a great time with Peyton's baby and dog. She comes home exhausted from all the play and fun she's had. Peyton is a great dog sitter that I highly recommend!”
“Another great stay with Cyndi! Really appreciate all of the pictures and communication she provides throughout the stay. Our pup is always well taken care of and happy while in her care. Thanks Cyndi!”
“Jesse was so great with Zoey. He sent lots of photos, took her on a lot of walks and spent cuddle time with her. It’s clear he truly loves animals. We’d love for Zoey to stay with Jesse again.”
“Laneise made boarding with her so easy. She was so chill and flexible about drop off and pick up during the hectic holiday and that helped a lot! Our dogs loved being at her house and felt right at home. She has a lot of experience with animals and grooming so that is a huge plus! We are so thankful to have found her and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Susan is not only a wonderful sitter, she loves pets like as if they were her own! Susan has been sitting my 2 long haired cats since March when I had an unexpected death in the family. I could not find anyone to sit for my 2 cats with such short notice, I was in a pinch. Susan came to my rescue and responded quickly! I'm till this day very grateful to her! When I came back from my trip and picked my cats up from her, I had a hard time getting them back in their carrier! They didn't want to leave! I was so happy that my cats felt comfortable with Susan. I didn't mind them not wanting to leave and giving me a run around her house for half an hour trying to get them in their carrier. Susan is loving, caring and very knowledgeable about cats and she has given me pointers on challenges I have had with my cats, so she is not just a person that watches your pets. I'm very happy I found Susan, she is wonderful and my cats love her! I highly recommend her services!”
“Amanda has great communication before and during our dog’s stay. You can tell their family really love dogs and care for them while we are away! Have booked Amanda and their family twice and our dog loves visiting them.”
“This was a great experience for us and for our 1 year old golden! I received many pictures and videos throughout the day of him playing and enjoying himself. It gave us such peace of mind. It was very clear to us that he was very well taken care of.”
“Panda had a great time with Jennifer and her family. We appreciated the pictures and videos she sent, which showed how well Panda was being cared for. We’re very happy with the experience and hope to have Panda stay there again!”
“I am very pleased with the service I received from Miguel, he kept me up dated with the dogs everyday. The were happy and treated very well. I will use him for any further trips I take. Thank you for such a great job 👍”
“I was extremely satisfied with the care Bentley received while with Amanda and her family. Her fur babies were very welcoming to Bentley and I felt he was happy with his new friends. To my surprise, they went on a “field trip” where they were allowed to run off leash and smell and play in a very large confined space . I worried he would not want to leave with me and leave his friends behind. I highly recommend Amanda and will definitely use her in the future!!”
“Was looking for a new dog sitter and glad I found Jonathan. He took great care of ollie and I felt good leaving him in a nice clean place with other friendly doggies! Will be using Jonathan's services in the future.”
“Abby took such good care of our Ada. She welcomed her into our home while we were out of the country for two weeks. Ada was incorporated into their family. Sent pictures so we could see how happy she was! Definitely recommend Abby and will use her again!”
