We have just returned from a month long vacation for us and one for our dog Chance with Shay & Jay. He had a wonderful experience with the whole family. He was happy and very well cared for while enjoying long walks, adventures and snuggles. Afraid of loud noises, Chance was given extra love over the 4th of July and during thunder storms. Sending frequent photos and adventure updates kept our minds at ease. We could tell he was so happy I worried he would not want to leave! We highly recommend Shay & Jay as care givers of your special dog no matter how long the visit. We definitely will use them in the future.

Michaela was absolutely fantastic with Zephyr and it was so clear he had such a great time with her this weekend! During our stay she sent tons of pictures to keep me updated on what Zeph was up to and was very communicative throughout the whole rover process. We met ahead of time during a meet and greet where Zeph got tons of time to get to know his new aunt Michaela and vice versa and it was clear to see how great she was with handling him from the start. We will absolutely be back and are so happy to have met you! Thanks so much for taking such great care of Zephyr!

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!!

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m your dog’s new favorite human! I’m a reliable, attentive, and animal-loving sitter who treats every pup like my own. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves long walks, or prefers cozy naps and gentle company, I tailor my care to fit their personality and routine. I hold a Master’s degree in Animal Science with a focus on canine and feline care, and I have hands-on experience in dog shows and dog sports. This means I’m comfortable working with everything from high-energy, well-trained performance dogs to everyday companions who just want love and consistency. I also have experience with both basic pet grooming and show dog grooming, so I pay close attention to coat care, cleanliness, and overall presentation. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, and I’m comfortable administering basic medications, sticking to feeding schedules, and maintaining routines. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Safety, trust, and lots of tail wags are my top priorities. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐶💛 Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to prioritize the needs of the pets in my care, including regular walks, feeding times, play, and enrichment. Because of my background in animal science and experience with dog sports and shows, I’m very used to maintaining structured routines and adapting to each dog’s individual needs—whether that’s high-energy exercise, training reinforcement, or a calm, predictable environment. I’m flexible throughout the week and make sure I have the availability to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any household preferences—while keeping the environment clean, secure, and respectful. I’m very mindful of doors, gates, and potential hazards to ensure pets stay safe at all times. In my home, I provide a structured, low-stress environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and rest. Dogs are never left unattended in unsafe situations, and I carefully manage introductions and interactions if other dogs are present. Cleanliness, secure spaces, and routine are always maintained. With my background in animal science, dog sports, and grooming, I’m very attentive to behavior, body language, and overall wellbeing, allowing me to respond quickly to each pet’s needs and keep them comfortable, safe, and happy.

I’m definitely a bit of a helicopter dog mom and trust very few people to watch my fur babies while I’m out of town. Peyton & Daved have cared for my high-energy Australian Shepherd puppy, Luna, on three separate occasions now, and every single time she is beyond excited when we pull up—and completely tuckered out after spending her stay playing with all of her friends. They are incredibly patient with me constantly asking for “pupdates” and always send plenty of photos and updates of Luna exploring, playing, and having fun. It makes such a difference and really helps ease the guilt of being away from her. I’m so grateful we found Peyton & Daved. In fact, whenever I’m getting ready to travel now, I’m actually excited knowing Luna gets to spend time with her friends and people who genuinely care about her. There’s no better feeling than knowing your pup loves her home away from home just as much as you do. Thank you, Peyton & Daved, for taking such wonderful care of Luna. We couldn’t recommend you more highly!

About: I am offering a range of services due to my flexible schedule. I am open to coming to your home for services. My passion both for pet and helping others made me realize this would be a great way to make some extra money. I have raised puppies, trained dogs, worked at a humane society, and been a dog sitter for years. I am extremely active so dog joggers/ runners are a plus! I currently have a 10 year old pittie mix who lives for lounging on the couch and meeting new people, and a 3 year old heeler mix who loves to hit the trails. If you’re looking for an animal love who is trustworthy, responsible, and punctual, let’s chat! Looking forward to seeing how I can care for your furry loved ones! I am looking to care for pets before and after my work day (AM, PM, and late night let outs) as well as additional availability over weekends. I am incredibly diligent in my care for my own pups. I know how hard it can be to leave our pups behind while we are away. I hope to be able to ease those worries!

About: I have had all sorts of animals throughout my life. I’ve never worked with dogs professionally but I’ve had multiple family dogs ranging from Chihuahuas to Pit bulls and I loved and cared for all of them. I currently have 2 Pit bulls that are loved and happy. I also often help pet sit in the neighborhood. During the school year I will be in class from 8 to 3 but after that I have plenty of time to walk and/or care for your pet. I have no other priorities so taking care of your fur baby will be my main focus. I am typically well liked by dogs and I am patient with dogs that are still in training so if needed I can go at your dogs pace making them more comfortable.

About: I’ve lived with dogs as long as I can remember and have had a significant part in their care for about 10 years. The last 4 years I’ve been the primary caregiver for my pets. Since I was a teenager I’ve been the designated pet and house sitter for friends and family! I currently work full time but work from home two days per week. My mornings before work and evenings after work are dedicated to the pups. If necessary I am able to take a long lunch for some extra pup time. I have a fully fenced in yard where my friendly pups love to play and a puppy proofed home. Pets are welcome anywhere people are allowed, including furniture. My 2 dachshunds are super outgoing with other dogs and can keep up with big dogs! In a client’s home I will take into account any of the house rules of the pet parents.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.

I just recently found Ayme & I have booked with her twice in one week!!! I chose her because of her extensive positive reviews & for the fact that she has a nice backyard. Upon meeting her, she is warm, kind & welcoming. My adopted chocolate lab has separation anxiety, which has been getting worse. He becomes immensely anxious when I leave him and he can’t be left alone at all, or else he barks non-stop. He doesn’t love doggy daycare because it’s too many dogs, not enough human interaction and no outside time. He has done well with Ayme twice so far for day care and I look forward to using her services consistently to get him familiarized with her & being away from me. I totally recommend Ayme!

Abby, had great communication with me while our pup was there. She sent me pics which helped put our minds at ease. What sold me on her was that within 5 minutes of me reaching out with our dogs info and request for care she responded back with her address ready to take him immediately. If we’re ever in the area again we will definitely be using her services!

About: I believe pets deserve to feel just as loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away as they do at home. I’m attentive, dependable, and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give each pet. I take the time to learn their personality, routine, and individual needs, whether they’re a playful puppy, an energetic dog, a shy pet, or a senior who needs a little extra patience and care. I’m happy to keep up with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little routines that help your pet feel comfortable. Communication is also important to me. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and getting plenty of love and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy making time for animals throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, including walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of cuddles. When caring for a pet, I make their routine a priority. I’m happy to follow their normal schedule and keep them comfortable in a familiar environment. I also make time for regular updates and photos so their owners know how they’re doing. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and opportunities to relax. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, walking, and bedtime routines so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their familiar environment and stick closely to their routine. I’ll make sure they’re fed, exercised, given plenty of attention, and have everything they need. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels, including puppies and senior pets who may need extra patience and care. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own and keep their owner updated with photos and messages along the way.

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.

Amanda is hands down a five-star sitter! She watched my dog all day and did an incredible job managing her high energy; she really went above and beyond to get all those "zoomies" out, and I picked up a very happy, tired pup. Her communication was also top-notch throughout the day, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone reliable who truly knows how to engage with dogs, I highly recommend booking with Amanda!

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m your dog’s new favorite human! I’m a reliable, attentive, and animal-loving sitter who treats every pup like my own. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves long walks, or prefers cozy naps and gentle company, I tailor my care to fit their personality and routine. I hold a Master’s degree in Animal Science with a focus on canine and feline care, and I have hands-on experience in dog shows and dog sports. This means I’m comfortable working with everything from high-energy, well-trained performance dogs to everyday companions who just want love and consistency. I also have experience with both basic pet grooming and show dog grooming, so I pay close attention to coat care, cleanliness, and overall presentation. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, and I’m comfortable administering basic medications, sticking to feeding schedules, and maintaining routines. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Safety, trust, and lots of tail wags are my top priorities. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐶💛 Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to prioritize the needs of the pets in my care, including regular walks, feeding times, play, and enrichment. Because of my background in animal science and experience with dog sports and shows, I’m very used to maintaining structured routines and adapting to each dog’s individual needs—whether that’s high-energy exercise, training reinforcement, or a calm, predictable environment. I’m flexible throughout the week and make sure I have the availability to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any household preferences—while keeping the environment clean, secure, and respectful. I’m very mindful of doors, gates, and potential hazards to ensure pets stay safe at all times. In my home, I provide a structured, low-stress environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and rest. Dogs are never left unattended in unsafe situations, and I carefully manage introductions and interactions if other dogs are present. Cleanliness, secure spaces, and routine are always maintained. With my background in animal science, dog sports, and grooming, I’m very attentive to behavior, body language, and overall wellbeing, allowing me to respond quickly to each pet’s needs and keep them comfortable, safe, and happy.

About: Does your dog spend the day waiting for you to come home from work? Dogs need more than just a quick potty break — they need companionship, playtime, and a chance to feel included. I provide a fun, safe, and loving environment where your pup can enjoy the day instead of feeling bored or lonely while you’re at work. Your dog deserves more than simply being cared for while you’re away — they deserve a day filled with companionship, comfort, enrichment, & love. I provide a personalized, home-style experience where your pup can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. While you’re focused on your workday, I make sure your dog’s day is filled with attention, engagement, and the little moments that keep them happy and fulfilled. My home is a place where dogs can enjoy gentle companionship, playtime with my friendly dog, walks, cuddles, and plenty of positive interaction. I treat every dog as an individual, taking the time to understand their personality, routines, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Think of it as a private day retreat for your best friend — a place where they can enjoy their day just as much as you enjoy yours, knowing they are in loving & capable hands. I’m a former veterinary technician with lifelong animal care & experience. Whether your baby needs medication, extra patience, or just lots of belly rubs, I’m here to provide. I’m confident with senior dogs, special needs pets, and all kinds of temperaments. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing that your fur child is in experienced, caring hands. I also do brushing, massages, baths & nail trims (upon request). Every dog has their own personality and pace, but a typical day includes a balance of play, enrichment, exercise, relaxation, and plenty of love. Arrival Time (AM) | Welcome & Morning Routine: -Happy greetings and settling in -Fresh water and a chance to explore the yard -Morning potty break -Gentle playtime and introductions with my dog 9:00–11:00 AM | Play & Enrichment Time: -Supervised yard play -Games, toys, and interactive activities -Optional walks (based on your pup’s needs and preferences) -Plenty of sniffing, exploring, and social time 11:00 AM–1:00 PM | Lunch & Rest Period: -Lunch served according to your dog’s normal routine -Quiet time to digest and relax -Cozy nap time for a well-deserved recharge 1:00–3:00 PM | Afternoon Adventure: -More playtime and companionship -Yard activities -Baby pool splash time on warm days (weather permitting) -Additional walks or outdoor enrichment if desired 3:00–5:00 PM | Wind-Down & Cuddle Time: -Calm play, affection, and relaxation -Final potty breaks -Happy, tired pups ready to greet their families at pickup Throughout the day, your pup receives individualized attention, companionship, and care in a safe, loving home environment. My goal is for every dog to feel like they’re enjoying a fun little vacation while you’re away. I have a large fenced in yard and 2 fur babies of my own to keep your baby company (one small chihuahua-mix & one small senior cat). My dog-child makes the perfect play-buddy because he is a very silly, interactive & playful pup.

He is a 6 year old Yorkshire Terrier who loves to socialize with people and pets. We currently live in a suburban neighborhood that will make you feel safe to leave your fur babies in my hands.

My favorite part of the day is when I come home to my pup! And whenever I meet or get to hang out with other dogs my day is made. I just love to be around animals and learning how to communicate and connect with each unique personality! I was the neighborhood dog sitter growing up and my favorite time of year was when my neighbors would go out of town and I could watch their pups! I learned how to care for and handle all different kinds of dogs and I was always so happy to be around them. The best day of my life (so far) was the day I got a pup of my own! I believe that dogs can change people’s lives and bring so much happiness into the world. I am fully available to care for animals with my current schedule. I work from home but my job is winding down and will be doing pet care until my next full time opportunity. I have so much love for animals and their safety and health is my priority. I have two dogs that are my world and I always make sure they have everything they need. I will put the same care and effort into caring for other people's animals and will always treat them as my own. I make sure to spend as much time as possible with my pups and keep them as healthy and happy as I can.

Kat was wonderful with giving real-time updates and photos of my pup during their walk! She also made sure he had a fresh bowl of water following their walk.

I cannot recommend Sierra highly enough! My dog, Mickey, ran down the hall to meet her on her second visit. He’s never done that. She obviously had Mickey’s seal of approval immediately. Sierra is conscientious, very communicative, and extremely kind. She has my complete trust and respect, because she treats Mickey as if he were her own. To me that is the absolute best quality in a dog walker! Choosing Sierra as your dog walker is the absolute correct decision! Having Sierra walk your dog will keep you worry free and happy while your pup gets good exercise, has fun and is treated like family 😃

About: I've been pet-sitting since I was 14 for cats, dogs and reptiles. I've also owned dogs, cats and birds so I'm well aware of how to take care of a multitude of animals. I'm open to watch all types of animals. I'm able to do house visits which would include checking up on your pets, making sure they're fed, spending time with them, and provide enrichment and fun play time. I do live in an apartment so the walks would be done either at nearby parks or walking throughout the neighborhood. If a backyard is available, I will make sure to have play time involving fetch, tug of war, tag, etc. I’m available full time for your pet care needs and I look forward to making friends with your furry ones! I offer dog walking, and in-house sitting/check ups. Pets will be taken cared of based on the owners and pets needs. I wouldn’t want to disrupt their schedule so I will follow their current schedule to make sure they’re comfortable and not cause any confusion.

We have just returned from a month long vacation for us and one for our dog Chance with Shay & Jay. He had a wonderful experience with the whole family. He was happy and very well cared for while enjoying long walks, adventures and snuggles. Afraid of loud noises, Chance was given extra love over the 4th of July and during thunder storms. Sending frequent photos and adventure updates kept our minds at ease. We could tell he was so happy I worried he would not want to leave! We highly recommend Shay & Jay as care givers of your special dog no matter how long the visit. We definitely will use them in the future.

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!!

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m your dog’s new favorite human! I’m a reliable, attentive, and animal-loving sitter who treats every pup like my own. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves long walks, or prefers cozy naps and gentle company, I tailor my care to fit their personality and routine. I hold a Master’s degree in Animal Science with a focus on canine and feline care, and I have hands-on experience in dog shows and dog sports. This means I’m comfortable working with everything from high-energy, well-trained performance dogs to everyday companions who just want love and consistency. I also have experience with both basic pet grooming and show dog grooming, so I pay close attention to coat care, cleanliness, and overall presentation. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, and I’m comfortable administering basic medications, sticking to feeding schedules, and maintaining routines. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Safety, trust, and lots of tail wags are my top priorities. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐶💛 Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to prioritize the needs of the pets in my care, including regular walks, feeding times, play, and enrichment. Because of my background in animal science and experience with dog sports and shows, I’m very used to maintaining structured routines and adapting to each dog’s individual needs—whether that’s high-energy exercise, training reinforcement, or a calm, predictable environment. I’m flexible throughout the week and make sure I have the availability to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any household preferences—while keeping the environment clean, secure, and respectful. I’m very mindful of doors, gates, and potential hazards to ensure pets stay safe at all times. In my home, I provide a structured, low-stress environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and rest. Dogs are never left unattended in unsafe situations, and I carefully manage introductions and interactions if other dogs are present. Cleanliness, secure spaces, and routine are always maintained. With my background in animal science, dog sports, and grooming, I’m very attentive to behavior, body language, and overall wellbeing, allowing me to respond quickly to each pet’s needs and keep them comfortable, safe, and happy.

I’m definitely a bit of a helicopter dog mom and trust very few people to watch my fur babies while I’m out of town. Peyton & Daved have cared for my high-energy Australian Shepherd puppy, Luna, on three separate occasions now, and every single time she is beyond excited when we pull up—and completely tuckered out after spending her stay playing with all of her friends. They are incredibly patient with me constantly asking for “pupdates” and always send plenty of photos and updates of Luna exploring, playing, and having fun. It makes such a difference and really helps ease the guilt of being away from her. I’m so grateful we found Peyton & Daved. In fact, whenever I’m getting ready to travel now, I’m actually excited knowing Luna gets to spend time with her friends and people who genuinely care about her. There’s no better feeling than knowing your pup loves her home away from home just as much as you do. Thank you, Peyton & Daved, for taking such wonderful care of Luna. We couldn’t recommend you more highly!

I always know that my dog is safe, comfortable, and taken care of with Zach. Ardo loves hanging out with him while I’m at work, and when I went out of town for the first time, it eased my anxiety knowing he’d be somewhere he was loved and cared for. Zach did an amazing job of keeping me updated and checking in, and was very flexible when my flight home got delayed.

Aaren and Jordan are absolutely amazing, phenomenal pet sitters! From the moment I left Arya in their care, I knew she was in loving and patient hands. They treated her like family, and that meant everything to me while I was away. Their communication was top-tier—they kept me updated consistently with messages and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. On top of that, they were incredibly flexible and accommodating, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Arya truly found her second home with them, and there’s no doubt they are now her permanent sitters. I appreciate them more than words can express and can’t thank them enough for the love and care they showed my big girl. 💕🐾

About: I believe pets deserve to feel just as loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away as they do at home. I’m attentive, dependable, and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give each pet. I take the time to learn their personality, routine, and individual needs, whether they’re a playful puppy, an energetic dog, a shy pet, or a senior who needs a little extra patience and care. I’m happy to keep up with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little routines that help your pet feel comfortable. Communication is also important to me. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and getting plenty of love and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy making time for animals throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, including walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of cuddles. When caring for a pet, I make their routine a priority. I’m happy to follow their normal schedule and keep them comfortable in a familiar environment. I also make time for regular updates and photos so their owners know how they’re doing. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and opportunities to relax. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, walking, and bedtime routines so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their familiar environment and stick closely to their routine. I’ll make sure they’re fed, exercised, given plenty of attention, and have everything they need. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels, including puppies and senior pets who may need extra patience and care. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own and keep their owner updated with photos and messages along the way.

About: I frequently dogsit for friends and family, and I've had my soul-dog for 5 years! She's a rescue shepherd-husky mix and has taught me SO much about training and caring for a smart, high-energy dog! She's entering her senior years and has slowed down a lot, which means I have more time in my day to care for other pups, whether it's a check-in, walk, or boarding in my home. I have a fenced front and back yard, and with my location in Church Hill, there are countless places to walk and explore. I currently work from home 95% of the time! The other 5% is a mix of working at coffee shops and going in to my work's coworking space, but I'm never away from home for more than 8 hours a day. My days are very flexible and I'm happy to work around you and your pup's schedule! I have a fenced front yard that is grassy and a shady, fenced back patio/yard that pups can run around in. I only take 1 boarding or day-care client at a time, so your dog gets my full attention (alongside my pup!). Your dog must be friendly around other dogs for boarding or day care.

Ellysia is the very best dog sitter we have ever had. Abby was right at home at her house for 12 days. It was clear she felt loved and cared for. She was great about communication what Abby was up to and sent photos and videos. It is rare to find someone you feel this confident about leaving your dog with. Abby is sensitive to thunder and she gave special care and attention to help Abby through those times. We feel very blessed to have found such a nice wonderful caring person to send Abby to when we are gone. Thank you so much!
