“My dog, Mowgli, had an amazing time with Jenessa! She shared videos and photos with me every day, which I really appreciated. I had absolutely no issues with her—she was reliable, caring, and communicative. I highly recommend her. Book her without a second thought!”
“Chloe is amazing. Pictures and videos every day. We could tell that our dog was not only cared for but loved. Definitely would recommend and she will absolutely be our first choice in the future”
“Our dogs love Debbi and her family. They get so excited every time we pull up to her house! I begin to think they like to stay there rather than being home! Hahahaha!”
“Odin is generously spoiled with each stay with Lisa. She always engages him with different activities and outings, and showers him with love and attention. He loves his Lisa vacations!”
“Leslie was truly amazing! Her communication was thorough before the weekend, and kept us updated through the weekend with videos and photos. She will be our first connection the next time we need a sitter. Thank you for your kindness and taking care of our Ellie, Leslie. You are wonderful!”
“Kaylie was so great! Flexible and patient with us due to some last minute changes. She did took a great care of our boy, followed up with us without us having to ask her. Lemmy had a great time with her and his new friends! I highly recommend Kaylie, she’s very kind and reliable.”
“Bryan and Peggy are the best! Pippa immediately recognized Bryan and Peggy when we took her back 3 weeks after the first one night stay. She was so excited to see them again and went easily inside with them, her tail wagging. This time she stayed 2 weeks. Bryan sent lots of pictures and videos which was super nice. We could see how happy Pippa was in their loving company. She was "home away from home". Thank you Bryan and Peggy for treating and loving Pippa like your own dog. Pippa will come back whenever we need to go out of state.”
“Erika was great, she was able to take care of Stella last minute due to an unexpected change in plans for our trip. She was responsive and sent pictures of her daily, which help put us at ease. Would work with her again and recommend to other.”
“Liz exceeded all my exceptions when boarding my boy, Bexo! Not only does she provide a "home away from home", but with a stream of photos of Bexo exploring her huge yard and going for walks on the surrounding trails, I really felt like he was getting a vacation of his own. Bexo can take a while to warm up to new people, and doesn't do well with other dogs. While discussing this at drop off, I discovered that Liz is also a trainer with extensive experience working with special needs. This was immediately apparent in the her interactions with Bexo, as she made sure Bexo was conformable with her before I left. She really seem to "hear" him, and I've never seen him take to a stranger so fast. Thanks again Liz! Bexo can't wait until next time.”
“Ben did an amazing job watching my giant baby Jaxon for 4 days! I received pictures everyday and was also notified of Jaxon’s activities. Jaxon had an amazing time playing with Ben’s dogs, playing fetch in their large spacious yard, and going on hikes on a nature trail. He’s superb and we will definitely use him again. I highly recommend Ben for an amazing safe, nurturing and fun place to keep your dog. Jaxon had a blast!”
“Heather was great! She made sure maple was fed and happy. She sent lots of pictures to keep updated which I loved! She was very quick to respond and very friendly! Would definitely book again!”
“Our original sitter had an emergency, so we had to find a sitter quickly for an upcoming trip. Thank goodness we found Josh! It was lovely having Cherry at a home where only one dog is being watched, so she had all the attention to herself. Josh and Mario were very welcoming and I knew Cherry would be well cared for!”
“This was our second stay with Kim and our girl had the best time. Kim is AMAZING with communication and it was clear from the daily photos that our pup was safe, happy, and having the time of her life!”
“Jessi was amazing! She was very understanding and flexible when I messed up the drop off time and sent daily updates! I would definitely recommend using her for your fur babies! Finn came back so happy and tired from all the playing!”
“Quang was fantastic! We had a family event that we had to attend in Hong Kong with little notice and needed boarding in a hurry for our pup Chewy. Our usual boarder was out as their own dog was injured. Quang agreed to take Chewy for a week and by all accounts the experience was fantastic. Quang provided daily pictures, videos and updates on Chewy. We are greatly appreciative and hope to board with Quang again!”
“This was our 2nd time booking with Esther and my dog does well here. He can be an anxious guy so it’s nice to find someone who is patient and understands. Would definitely use Esther again.”
“Wendy and James take such good care of McKinley when we are away. He is always safe and gets lots of walks when he is with them. I am so glad I found them. He loves it at their home and I never worry about him. Makes traveling much easier.”
“Jeanne has a great rapport with the dogs she watches, and has made the effort to set up her house and yard in a very dog friendly way. We'll be back!”

“Ardelle did a fantastic job. My brave kitty made ready friends with her, and she took the time to take pictures of my shy guy, too. It was a great relief to know they were well cared for while I was away.”
“Madeleine was an absolute godsend. This was our first time leaving Twinkie alone for such a long time, and we were naturally very anxious. Madeleine took care of her as if she were her own cat, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter! She followed all of our instructions perfectly and kept us updated throughout. Twinkie is an extremely shy and anxious cat who has never been comfortable around strangers, but Madeleine was so patient and gentle that Twinkie eventually warmed up to her. Seeing Twinkie come out of hiding to greet her was something we never expected and gave us so much peace of mind. Madeleine even went above and beyond by getting a Feliway diffuser when she noticed Twinkie was experiencing separation anxiety. That level of care and thoughtfulness meant the world to us. We came home to a happy, well cared for cat and felt completely at ease knowing Twinkie was in such loving hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Madeleine to anyone looking for a compassionate, reliable, and truly exceptional pet sitter. We would absolutely book her again!”
“Courtney is quite responsive and attentive to details when taking care of my cat. The status report was also sent on time and with a lot of photos. Will definitely book again in the future”
About: I grew up with three cats and helped take care of them. I also have experience looking after my friends and family’s cats. I absolutely love hanging out with cats and their personalities. I’m also good with cats from all ages and temperaments!
“Aidan took great care of my cats, and I am more than pleased with the care and attention they gave them. They almost seemed disappointed that I came home! I would highly recommend Aidan to any pet owner.”
About: Hi! I have a deep love for all types of cats and their different personalities. I have experience taking care of friends and neighbors cats, currently, and as a kid. I would love to help you and your kitty in any way that I can whether that be snuggles, playing with their favorite toy, providing company, feeding and refilling water bowls and I can deep clean litter boxes too. I have experience with kittens and older cats and I’m more than happy to spend extra time with them for snuggles or play time. I run my own business from home so I have extremely flexible hours. I will happily visit whenever is best for your kitty 😊 I’m a big fan of open communication and will provide lots of updates while you’re away. I’m more than happy to send pet pictures/video updates too! I’m committed to making sure your cat gets the care and attention they deserve and are treated as if they were my own
About: I’ve had cats since I was a baby, and I was tasked with feeding them and cleaning their litter once I was old enough, and I have a few tricks up my sleeve regarding their medication. I’ve been around a variety of cats my whole life, so I’m well versed in cat body language. I’m also welcoming of any special needs cats, seniors or otherwise! If they’re wobbly, blind, deaf, paralyzed, can’t control their bladder, you name it, I’m perfectly fine with all of it. The amount of cats doesn’t bother me either. If you need a quiet presence for your fur-babies, or one that can keep up with high-energy or high-maintenance cats, I’m your sitter! If there’s one thing I can guarantee, it’s that your kitties will be given a lot of love and attention under my care, even if it’s from afar. Your fur-babies needs and comfort come first, regardless of how cute they are, so if they’re wary of strangers I’ll keep my distance. Their boundaries will not be pushed, and I will do my best to not stress them unnecessarily unless I think their safety is at risk. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me and ask, I’m happy to answer!
“This is our second time using Shannon for our cat Momo and she's the best. Tons of photos, great communication, and when a snow storm caused some damage at our house she let us know and even offered to help. Total peace of mind knowing Momo is in good hands. We will keep using Shannon!”
“Elizabeth is such a kind human and went above and behind to take care of our two kitties & home! I would highly recommend booking with her and will definitely use her in the future :)”
“Lindsay did a fantastic job caring for our cat while we were out of town! She was a wonderful communicator, sent lots of photos and updates, and our cat warmed up to her right away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands, which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. We would absolutely recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Gianna was very helpful in a last-minute request for our 4 cats, including one who requires inhaler and medicine administration. She provided thorough updates and shared pictures of all four (even the hard to find ones). For disclosure, I am a Rover employee.”
“Jennifer is amazing with all of our Fur family! My Wife and I travel for business a lot. When we are away Jennifer takes really great care of all our Fur family members. Very caring and trustworthy! I highly recommend Jennifer to all.”
“Our kitties were well taken care of and we felt so much better about being away knowing Scarlett was checking in on them. She sent us photos every visit of them so we knew they were happy! I'd recommend her to anyone needing care for their animals!”
About: I love cats and have a natural connection with them. I enjoy playing, interacting, and getting to know each cat’s unique personality. Cats seem to respond well to my energy, and I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care while you’re away.
About: We mostly board dogs, but have three cats of our own. When we board cats, for their safety, they are kept in their own room with shelves to climb on, toys to play with, classical music to calm their nerves, and plenty of love and attention from the family.

“Fairly certain I get a better dog back than what I leave with ardelle 🤣 she gives the absolute best and cutest updates on all the fun things they do. Ziggy gets the full butt wiggle when he realizes who he's hanging out with. They go outside and run and play and she always has him nice and clean for me to pick back up. And she really just goes above and beyond in all aspects. Ziggy and I are both so happy to have found her and so appreciative of how great she has been for him to hang out with.”
“Lexi and Victor were very easy going and responsive. We booked them so we could go hiking in Mount Rainier National Park for the day and it worked perfect. They were flexible and had great communication. Teddy had a great time.”
“Butters came back happy and tired. They kept us informed with a lot of pictures and videos. They had multiple dogs at the place which i think makes it fun ! they took good care of him”
About: Dog care Experience 🐾 Caring for dogs has always been a meaningful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog and have spent years looking after pups of all sizes, personalities, and needs. As a dedicated dog lover, I treat every furry guest like one of my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. I do have 3 fur babies of my own. So with each new client we introduce 1 dog at a time and when I feel comfortable they will be all together under supervision of course. My home is truly a dog-loving environment. My fiancé is a mobile dog groomer and together we share a passion for providing top-quality care. Playtime and activity are an essential part of every dog’s stay. Whether it’s zoomies in the yard, interactive play, or fun, energizing walks, I make sure each pup stays happy, stimulated, and engaged. I also have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs and those with special needs, including administering medications such as eye drops. I understand the importance of patience, gentleness, and attentiveness, especially for older pets who need a little extra comfort. With me, your dog will be in safe, loving hands—because they’re not just pets, they’re family ❤️ I’m a stay-at-home dog mom, which means I’m home full-time and able to provide constant care, attention, and supervision for your pup during daycare or boarding. I do share my home with my 3 sweet fur babies. They’re friendly but can take a little time to warm up to new people and dogs. Once you drop off your pup I will allow them to sniff and explore throughout the whole entire house, front yard and backyard/garden. Then when they seem to get settled I start introduction with 1 dog at a time for about 10-15 minutes then repeat with all the dogs I have. Next step is bring 2 pups out at a time to play together but mostly its just alot of Sniffing lol Creating a calm, safe, and loving environment is very important to me, and I take the time to ensure every dog feels secure and welcomed. Your pup will be treated like part of Our Family while they’re here 🐶❤️ Home & Care Details 🐾 I have a nice, fully fenced yard where your pup can safely play, explore, and burn off energy. My three fur babies are always around to help keep your dog active, social, and engaged throughout the day. Daily activity is a priority here—we’ll enjoy plenty of playtime in the yard along with one or two walks, depending on your dog’s needs and energy level. To help keep your pup comfortable and on their normal routine, I kindly ask that you: Pre-portion your dog’s food for their stay Include their usual feeding schedule Provide enough food for the entire visit Give clear, detailed instructions for any medications, if needed This helps me provide consistent, attentive care and ensures your dog feels right at home 🐶❤️ Also at drop off time I ask that you call or send me a message letting me know when you are 20 minutes away and when you arrive. I will meet you and your fur baby on the front porch and I will take over care from there ♡♡♡
“Jacklyn was great! Sent lots of (very cute!) pictures, walked McCoy, and made sure he got along with her own dog. McCoy was always happy to see her (and her dog) when we dropped him off. Jacklyn was also very responsive to us (e.g. when we had to modify our arrival/pick up time) which made our lives very easy.”
“Kim is wonderful and patient. I have never taken my dogs to day care before and they were nervous and shy. Kim was wonderful with them and sent photos throughout the day. I was so happy with her services that I rebooked another doggy day care day and will be boarding with her. She made the experience very positive for myself and my dogs.”
“Vanessa is awesome. She was so loving with Riley and sent pictures and updates throughout. As soon as I met her I could tell that she would take great care... extremely warm and kind. I felt totally comfortable with her as Riley's sitter!”
“Amanda is the best! She took Indy last minute when we had a few things pop up and he had the best time during doggy daycare - as always! He comes happy and tired every time. ☺️ Thank you so much!”
“Claire has been absolutely fantastic with my puppy! She sends pictures and updates throughout the day to put my mind at ease. I can tell she cares for my pup like her own. I am so glad to have found her! ?”
“Our english springer spaniel had a great day! Adrienne is so nice and just really great to work with. And she did a great job with our very energetic pup. Also, her place with lots of open space for the dogs to run is perfect.”
“Jessica took the best care of my KBT senior, Schmokie ? She was always so accommodating with my chaotic work schedule and gave me the peace of mind that I knew my fur baby was in a safe & well-cared for environment. I am so happy with her care and consider it a privilege to have her in my known network of caregivers ? Thank you ??”
“Thanks for the great pics. Penny looks so content. When I dropped her off this morning, Penny went right up to Richard and didn’t try to pull away to come with me as she has done in the past. She must really like Marina and Richard and I am so happy to have found someone I can trust when I need a sitter in the future. Thanks again!”
“Anping was great with our dog, Mowgli. He was also very accommodating when we got with our intended pick up time. I will definitely use his service in the future with Mowgli.”
“Jay and Xinyu are great! They took very good care of our Golden, Nala and sent daily updates with pictures. They also helped socialize her with a pal that Nala got along with very well! I was more than comfortable with them taking great care of Nala these past two weeks and grateful they made her stay enjoyment! Would recommend them to anyone and definitely coming back in the future!”
“Seven straight days of dog daycare could not have worked out better! Mariah has a wonderful setup for dogs as well as an obvious love for dogs. I actually got the impression that my dog preferred being at Mariah's more than with me some days. I will definitely be using Mariah's services again.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs, mostly Pit Bulls, and have always been comfortable caring for and being around them. I also cared for my own dog for over a year after getting her when she was around 6 months old. She had a difficult past and had already had puppies at a very young age, so she needed extra patience, trust, and consistency. I worked with her and taught her basic commands, and she became very responsive to me. I’m currently available for pet care any day and at flexible times throughout the week. Starting August 31, I’ll be attending school Monday through Friday from 1:30 PM to 5:30 PM. Outside of those hours, I’ll still have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, sitting, and other pet care needs. My school schedule is consistent each day, so I’m able to plan my availability reliably around it. I treat every pet in my care like they are my own. I want them to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I make sure they are fed on their normal schedule, have fresh water, get their walks and exercise, and have plenty of playtime and attention. I also enjoy playing with their favorite toys and getting to know their personality and routine. I understand that some pets may take a little time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and let them get comfortable with me at their own pace.
“Judy was great with my nervous dog who was dropped off for doggy day care for the first time. She was very flexible in scheduling, and made drop off and pick up easy. Got several pictures during the day, and Cooper came home healthy and happy. :-)”

“Lily was fantastic with our two pups! She was on time, communicated clearly and was very reliable! She was able to help us out last minute in a time we really needed it. We will continue to use her in the future!”
About: I come from a professional dog training background, and I bring that to every visit. Much of my work has been with dogs who require more understanding than the average person has: reactive dogs, anxious dogs, dogs who are typically hard to find care for. Whether you've been turned down before or just want the best care for your pack, please reach out. Helping dogs is genuinely how I enjoy spending my days the most. On a normal drop-in or walk I: * Add mental stimulation through short training sessions and games * Reinforce appropriate boundaries so good behavior holds while you're gone * Build focus and confidence with nosework and scent games * Continue any training you're already working on, using your cues and your approach Just as important, I treat my visits like the job they are: * I show up on time, every time. * I follow instructions exactly as written. Your routine stays your routine. * I ask the questions that prevent problems later: gate and door latches, leash triggers, medication timing, what you want me to do if anything were to go wrong. * You'll get a clear update with pictures from every visit, so you know exactly how it went. I'm comfortable with medical needs and special feeding requirements. I have a lot of experience with Huskies, German Shepherds, Malamutes, Rottweilers, Pit Bulls and Labs; I'm happy to help with any breed or mix. If your situation doesn't fit the usual mold, get in touch. I'm flexible, solution oriented and usually reply within minutes. Drop-in visits, dog walks, and hikes. Available full time, including same-day and last-minute bookings when my calendar allows. Always on time, follow instructions precisely, and treat your pets like my own. Message me with any ask, my response time is usually just a few minutes. I'm well versed in meeting new dogs of all backgrounds and have quite a bit of experience working with animals where there is little room for error. Rest assured that I'm 100% committed to your pets. Canine First Aid & CPR Certified!
About: I have taken care of pets, including my own, since I was 8 years old. From big to small, dogs to cats, young and old, and many breeds I have a passion for taking care of animals!

“Courtney was great! She helped me for a week by walking my dog while I was in town for work. She was right on time and gave me great pics of my dog. She also handled a behavior issue he has very well.”
“May was able to help out on short notice which was much appreciated. She was promot picking up Hulu for his walk and always sent update pics. We would definitely use May again.”
“Sarah was excellent! She accepted my request last minute and accommodated changes in plans. She kept me up to date before and after visits. Sent pictures and tracks from walks. She understood the needs of my aging but active border collie and kept her active and engaged while I was away for the weekend. She made sure that my dog was fed left the lights and music on for her when she left. She met and exceeded expectations. Would highly recommend. We look forward to Sarah visiting again!”
About: Puppy care, elderly dog care, and working on my Red Cross pet first aid certification. I have cared for teacup small, pony-sized, large dogs, and white faced elderly dogs that need special attention. I love every dog I met and can’t wait to meet yours! I am doing school online. I can do early mornings, late nights, or if you need me to watch your pup at home. My days are open to whenever I need to drop by When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine, providing plenty of love, exercise, and companionship, and keeping their environment clean and safe. I follow all care instructions closely to ensure your pets are getting exactly what they need. I also give regular updates (and adorable pictures) to ensure peace of mind.

About: I have walked and have had overnight stays with my neighbors dogs for 6 years now. From big dogs to small dogs and even cats! I prefer no aggressive breeds(pits, shepherds, no huskies etc) I am pretty free during the week now that my daughter has started school. I am a musician also so I am out of town sometimes for shows and gigs, but I do have free time too! If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have a big yard and there are great walking trails around my house. There is also a doggy park near by. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat, but he is chill and warms up easily. If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. We help each other out! Only excepting smaller to medium sized dogs for new clients currently. I do not have a fenced yard and keep all dogs on a leash whenever I am outside. They are able to run free in my home though!
About: I have been a dog sitter awhile and have gained a lot of experience. I have done overnight stays, check ins, dog walks, and more. I have a puppy of my own and have grown up with dogs my whole life. Neighbors, friends, and more have trusted me to check in on their pets, feed them, and play with them. Worked with many different dogs and various ages. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to come check in on the pups and play with them. My work schedule does change depending on the week but I am available every day of the week. I am free mornings and nights and would have time mid day to check in on the dogs. I have a fenced yard for my dog and I walk him twice a day so he can get his energy out. I would walk your dogs how ever much is needed. Additionally, I would make sure to check in on them multiple times outside of my other jobs to ensure that they are good and can be let out. I am comfortable making sure any necessary medication is given on time and that they are also fed at there normal times. I know how much pets need to play and I would love to play fetch and more with your pets!!
About: Looking for someone who can give your fur baby all the attention they deserve? That’s me! I’m a full time pet sitter, so your furry family member is my top priority. From morning cuddles to playtime and walks, I make sure each day is full of love and care. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. I raised two Labradors from puppies all the way to 17 and 18 years old, and I’ve also cared for many small dogs over the years. Every dog is different, so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what helps them feel comfortable. After my own dogs passed, I realized how much I still wanted dogs to be part of my life. Caring for other people’s dogs has been a meaningful way for me to share that love again. ❤️ ⭐️As part of my commitment to supporting the Mirrormont community, 5% of all earnings from Mirrormont clients are donated to the community park in support of the Mirrormont Community Association (MCA). I’m available most days and have a flexible schedule as a full time pet sitter. Please feel free to reach out to check specific dates or times. 🐾 About My Daycare 🐾 Safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I focus on creating a clean, calm, and welcoming environment where every dog can feel relaxed and well cared for. To help maintain a clean and comfortable environment for all dogs in my care, I kindly ask that all pups be fully house trained. Thank you so much for your understanding. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and at ease during their time with me, whether they are here for daycare, boarding, or in-home care. ⸻ ⭐️ Daycare Policy⭐️ Daycare typically runs from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with up to 10 hours of care — but I’m happy to adjust the schedule to fit your needs. Just let me know what works best for you and your pup. If you need a little extra time, extended care is available at $15 per additional hour. Please let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly. 🐈Since cats are often more comfortable in their own space, I generally do not offer daycare for cats. I’m always happy to provide in-home drop-in care, where your cat can remain relaxed in a familiar environment. ⸻ 🏡 Boarding Policy 🏡 When your pup stays overnight with me, they’ll be treated like family and enjoy a cozy, home-style environment. You can expect me to spend at least 20 hours a day with your pup — this includes overnight care, plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day, and a calm, comforting presence at night. That said, I may step out briefly for personal errands like grocery shopping, meals, or other short outings, but your pup will never be left alone for extended periods. I always make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for when I’m away. ⸻ 🚪 Pet Sitting Policy 🚪 When staying in your home, I promise to respect both your pets routine and your space with the utmost care. I will spend at least 20 hours a day in your home, always planning my schedule around your pup’s walks, meals, and comfort. Most importantly, I will stay overnight to keep your pups company they’ll never have to sleep alone. Their routine is my top priority, and I aim to make them feel calm, loved, and secure while you’re away. Before I leave, I will return your home to the way it was clean, tidy, and as if I was never there. ⸻ 💛 What You Can Expect I treat every fur baby like family and always follow their routine. Your pup will enjoy: • A safe, loving, and stress-free environment • Plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles • Regular updates with photos and videos • Careful tracking of water intake and potty breaks to help monitor their health. ⸻ Let me know if you’d like to schedule a meet-and-greet. I look forward to welcoming your pup into my home and making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for every step of the way 🐶💕

“My dog, Mowgli, had an amazing time with Jenessa! She shared videos and photos with me every day, which I really appreciated. I had absolutely no issues with her—she was reliable, caring, and communicative. I highly recommend her. Book her without a second thought!”
“Odin is generously spoiled with each stay with Lisa. She always engages him with different activities and outings, and showers him with love and attention. He loves his Lisa vacations!”
“Kaylie was so great! Flexible and patient with us due to some last minute changes. She did took a great care of our boy, followed up with us without us having to ask her. Lemmy had a great time with her and his new friends! I highly recommend Kaylie, she’s very kind and reliable.”
“Bryan and Peggy are the best! Pippa immediately recognized Bryan and Peggy when we took her back 3 weeks after the first one night stay. She was so excited to see them again and went easily inside with them, her tail wagging. This time she stayed 2 weeks. Bryan sent lots of pictures and videos which was super nice. We could see how happy Pippa was in their loving company. She was "home away from home". Thank you Bryan and Peggy for treating and loving Pippa like your own dog. Pippa will come back whenever we need to go out of state.”
“Liz exceeded all my exceptions when boarding my boy, Bexo! Not only does she provide a "home away from home", but with a stream of photos of Bexo exploring her huge yard and going for walks on the surrounding trails, I really felt like he was getting a vacation of his own. Bexo can take a while to warm up to new people, and doesn't do well with other dogs. While discussing this at drop off, I discovered that Liz is also a trainer with extensive experience working with special needs. This was immediately apparent in the her interactions with Bexo, as she made sure Bexo was conformable with her before I left. She really seem to "hear" him, and I've never seen him take to a stranger so fast. Thanks again Liz! Bexo can't wait until next time.”
“Our original sitter had an emergency, so we had to find a sitter quickly for an upcoming trip. Thank goodness we found Josh! It was lovely having Cherry at a home where only one dog is being watched, so she had all the attention to herself. Josh and Mario were very welcoming and I knew Cherry would be well cared for!”
“Jessi was amazing! She was very understanding and flexible when I messed up the drop off time and sent daily updates! I would definitely recommend using her for your fur babies! Finn came back so happy and tired from all the playing!”
“Quang was fantastic! We had a family event that we had to attend in Hong Kong with little notice and needed boarding in a hurry for our pup Chewy. Our usual boarder was out as their own dog was injured. Quang agreed to take Chewy for a week and by all accounts the experience was fantastic. Quang provided daily pictures, videos and updates on Chewy. We are greatly appreciative and hope to board with Quang again!”
“This was our 2nd time booking with Esther and my dog does well here. He can be an anxious guy so it’s nice to find someone who is patient and understands. Would definitely use Esther again.”
“Lexi and Victor watched our golden for a few nights. They were flexible when we needed to add an additional night, and provided regular updates and photos. Would recommend!”
“We appreciate Courtney so much for the wonderful care and attention given to our four legged family member! Also we are very appreciative of the photos to see that she was enjoying herself! Thank you very much!”
“Chris was easy to work with and took great care of our dog. He updated us regularly providing pictures on walks and at the dog park. I would definitely book with Chris again.”
“Alexa was wonderful to work with! She followed all directions, asked thoughtful questions, and took great care of our dog Sucia. We didn’t worry about our pup for a minute with all of the clear communication and excellent care. We will definitely book again!”
“Cynthia was great. We left 2 labs for two nights and they seemed to be very comfortable and happy the entire time. Great communication before and during the stay, including pictures and general updates on the dogs. Definitely recommend.”
“Highly recommend Anping! Our German Shepherd stayed with him for three days and he looked so happy every single day. Anping took excellent care of him, including his medical needs, and kept us updated with many great photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Stefany and her family were so kind and nice to our dog. Walked her multiple times daily, sent multiple pictures and described many aspects of the day with my dog. She went above and beyond my expectations. I feel like my dog didn't want to come home 🐶😁”
“My dog had a wonderful stay at Jessica’s place. It was a home away from home for him and he got all the love and attention he needed. Would definitely recommend Jessica for a warm and loving environment for your pet.”
About: Dog care Experience 🐾 Caring for dogs has always been a meaningful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog and have spent years looking after pups of all sizes, personalities, and needs. As a dedicated dog lover, I treat every furry guest like one of my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. I do have 3 fur babies of my own. So with each new client we introduce 1 dog at a time and when I feel comfortable they will be all together under supervision of course. My home is truly a dog-loving environment. My fiancé is a mobile dog groomer and together we share a passion for providing top-quality care. Playtime and activity are an essential part of every dog’s stay. Whether it’s zoomies in the yard, interactive play, or fun, energizing walks, I make sure each pup stays happy, stimulated, and engaged. I also have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs and those with special needs, including administering medications such as eye drops. I understand the importance of patience, gentleness, and attentiveness, especially for older pets who need a little extra comfort. With me, your dog will be in safe, loving hands—because they’re not just pets, they’re family ❤️ I’m a stay-at-home dog mom, which means I’m home full-time and able to provide constant care, attention, and supervision for your pup during daycare or boarding. I do share my home with my 3 sweet fur babies. They’re friendly but can take a little time to warm up to new people and dogs. Once you drop off your pup I will allow them to sniff and explore throughout the whole entire house, front yard and backyard/garden. Then when they seem to get settled I start introduction with 1 dog at a time for about 10-15 minutes then repeat with all the dogs I have. Next step is bring 2 pups out at a time to play together but mostly its just alot of Sniffing lol Creating a calm, safe, and loving environment is very important to me, and I take the time to ensure every dog feels secure and welcomed. Your pup will be treated like part of Our Family while they’re here 🐶❤️ Home & Care Details 🐾 I have a nice, fully fenced yard where your pup can safely play, explore, and burn off energy. My three fur babies are always around to help keep your dog active, social, and engaged throughout the day. Daily activity is a priority here—we’ll enjoy plenty of playtime in the yard along with one or two walks, depending on your dog’s needs and energy level. To help keep your pup comfortable and on their normal routine, I kindly ask that you: Pre-portion your dog’s food for their stay Include their usual feeding schedule Provide enough food for the entire visit Give clear, detailed instructions for any medications, if needed This helps me provide consistent, attentive care and ensures your dog feels right at home 🐶❤️ Also at drop off time I ask that you call or send me a message letting me know when you are 20 minutes away and when you arrive. I will meet you and your fur baby on the front porch and I will take over care from there ♡♡♡
“Giovanna provided the absolute best care possible for our 4.5 month old rescue/foster pup, Moose. We received regular updates and stellar communication, and I am pretty sure Moose wishes he could have stayed for longer! What a wonderful experience for all. Thank you, Giovanna!”
