“We left our dog in Riitta's care for a week. This was our dog's first time at Riitta's and she had a blast. We got daily pictures of play time and nap time etc. Riitta's communication with us during the boarding time was great and it was clear how deeply she cared for our dog and her well-being. Thank you Riitta! We'll be back!”
“Victor took care of my 4-month-old Labrador puppy, Ginger, for a full week while I was on vacation, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Ginger is still very young—she isn’t fully potty trained or fully trained in general—so caring for her is truly a full-time job. Victor showed incredible patience, kindness, and dedication throughout. Ginger even ripped some of his dog’s toys, and he never once complained. He handled every challenge with understanding and care, and Ginger was clearly happy and well looked after. I’m extremely thankful to Victor and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate to care for their pet.”


“Jenny took care of our neighbor's dog Willow for us when we were taking care of it and had to leave unexpectedly for 3 days, the boarding experience went very well and she was very thoughtful and asked good questions prior to the boarding. Willow had a great time playing with her dog and when I came to pick her up Jenny had Willow's crate all packed up with her things and ready for me, which I really appreciated. Willow is a dog who can be anxious at times but it was obvious that she felt very comfortable with Jenny. We are pretty picky about who watches our pooches and are glad to have found someone in Gold Bar who we feel good about recommending or using for our own dogs.”
“Natalie is wonderful! As soon as we got there she made me and my girl comfortable. My dog is very perceptive with people and animals. If she isn’t comfortable she won’t go near them. Immediately my dog was wagging her tail and happy to be there. Likewise, when we picked her up she was happy. While greeting us she kept going back to Natalie as well. I will definitely want my girl to stay with Natalie again. What a relief to find a loving compassionate caring home for my girl when we need one”

“John was great. he took good care of cooper and sent regular updates and pictures. cooper refused to get into my car when i picked him up. will definitely leave cooper again with john. highly recommend..”

“Somer and Thomas were so great. They helped us out of a jam by accepting a very last-minute boarding reservation for our senior Great Pyrenees. Rosalie stayed 3 nights and was very well taken care of. When we picked her up she was calm, happy, and tired. Somer seems very knowledgeable about dog care and behavior and she even picked up on a medical issue Rosalie has and kept her cool and comfortable through a hot few days. We very much appreciate it and would absolutely recommend Somer and Thomas for boarding.”

“Krystina has been a wonderful sitter for Chingri and she just loves staying at her place. She enjoys playing with her dogs so much and Krystina always takes great care of her. She is very responsive, always sharing pictures and videos.”


“Dawn was absolutely fantastic!! She was able to accommodate my dog last minute and is super amazing!!! Her place is a dog haven, with a lush yard and lots of shady tall trees. She sent me pupdates all weekend, and I could tell my dog was having a blast, and was super content and happy. Her pets are total sweethearts and they all got along great. An absolute gem, if you want the best for your pooch, look no further.”

“Kelsey was amazing with our 2 year old Newfoundland Poodle mix! Our dog is very large and new to boarding, so had some nerves to work out. Kelsey was very patient and kind with him. On day 1 he was reluctant to come out of the kennel, but by the end of his stay, he was happily running in the yard with other dogs. Kelsey sent us videos and pictures for his entire stay. We really appreciate her great care for our silly goofball”

“Lisa watched our 13 year old Yorkie for 8 days when we went to the Bahamas! We love Lisa and knew our Zoey was is good hands. Lisa sent us updates and amazing pictures every day. Lisa goes above and beyond with love and care. It was so comforting to know we could relax and not worry about Zoey. We would highly recommend Lisa!”

“Our dog Zuzu loves coming to stay with Julie! She's always well taken care of and gets lots of play and cuddles 💕 and we get regular photos and updates, and peace of mind while out of town”

“We had a wonderful experience with Romy! She took excellent care of Uni and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and could tell our dog was happy, comfortable, and well loved. Romy was reliable, communicative, flexible and treated our dog like her own. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”

“Rochelle and Eric were absolutely incredible dogsitters. I am always nervous leaving Koda with someone new as hes a bit shy and anxious bur he warmed right up to them after out meet and greet and settled in quickly after drop off. Rochelle was extremely communicative and kept me updated while we were gone and it truly gave me so much peace of mind during my travels. I would definitely recommend Rochelle and I plan on seeking them out again for future care!”

“Hyeyoung and her family took great care of George! She sent great updates each day about George. Her photos are amazing! She made George look like a vogue doggy. I will 100% be rebooking with her!”


“Kramer LOVED Jessica! We are very thankful for how well she treated him with beautiful walks, playing with toys and letting him just follower her around. He really appreciated her letting him sleep with them. We loved the frequent updates with pictures; it really helped us deal with being away from him. We are so glad we found her to watch him when we need to go out of town.”

“Great communication and worked around me messing up with the app with ease! Ransford is not necessarily the easiest dog and I got nothing but glowing reports because of how much fun he was having! She did well with his meds and I trusted his safety in the house and with the other family members, furry and human. She will be my first call next time I need a sitter!”

“Cynthia watched Babii on 4th of July weekend and it was wonderful. She took awesome care of Babii and frequently update us with pictures of Babii while we were out of town. This is very much appreciated and gave us a peace of mind. When we go to pick Babii up, he came home really happy with us. We knew that he was being taken care of really well. We highly recommend Cynthia if you are looking to board your pup!”


“Todd is always our go to when we need someone to watch our dogs. His home is dog friendly and he always sends updates to ensure we know that the dogs are doing well. I would recommend him without hesitation.”


“Teri was perfect! Sienna was well-cared for, kept busy with toys and walks and came home so happy from all of the snuggling. The daily pictures and updates were fantastic. We would totally have Teri watch our dog again!”

“Robin did a great job caring for my cat and my home. Following my specific instructions was important to her and she did a great job at communicating throughout the stay. My cat felt comfortable with her more quickly than usual. I was able to relax on my trip & came home to everything secure and in order. I would definitely book Robin again.”

“Greetings from Gold Bar ~ This was our first booking with Jordan. She approaches animal care with true professionalism and a very friendly touch. We could tell by the photographs that Max [our aging kitty] was very content throughout our time away. Max is like a puppy-that-purrs. He needs the kind of companionship that dogs want but also his private napping time. Jordan intuitively understood his requirements. This resulted in a happy feline and relaxed owners!”
About: My name is Shannon and I am 42 years old. Me and my husband currently have 4 crazy dogs who we take on adventures all the time. I have worked as a veterinary assistant for the past 11 years. I am working part time and I am hoping to fill some of my free time walking dogs. I am very experienced with handling dogs in all situations. I have done dog walking and pet sitting in the past. I am available most weekdays and some weekends. Currently working part time as a veterinary assistant. I would love to have regular walks scheduled but can be available for last minute needs. I will not be bringing dogs to my home or bringing my dogs around any other dogs as my dogs do not get along with other dogs. I have my own very reliable vehicle that I can use to transport pets if needed for different walking experiences.
About: I have a cat and a dog and they are my life! I love all animals. They make me happy and less dippressed. I love love to be around all animals. I have worked with animals now for 7 years and my frirends and family would give good reconmandations for being a pet sitter. Pet care fits into my daily routine because every day I get up and feed my own dog and cat. Along with that I take my dog out every day for a walk. How I take care of my own pets in my home is by feeding them, and playing with them, and walking them, And making making sure they are well careed for and loved. I would treat your pets the same as I treat mine.
“I cannot even begin to explain how much of a lifesaver Rebecca was while we were on vacation. She went above and beyond in everything she did. I didn't worry about my kitty at all while I was gone because I knew she was in such good hands. She was super responsive and sent me lots of pictures of my girl so I didn't miss her quite so much. We will definitely be using Rebecca for our next vacation if she is available!”


About: I grew up with 5 cats and absolutely love them! I'm currently not able to have a cat and would love to come spend time with yours! Aside from my owner personal experience owning cats, I've also house sat for friends with both indoor and outdoor cats. Many of my family members also foster/rescue cats and I have spent many an afternoon snuggling and wearing out kittens :)
About: I have 27 years of experience in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant. I'm comfortable administering oral medications and injections, caring for senior pets, and monitoring pets with special medical needs. I understand how important it is to provide patient, compassionate, and reliable care so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable visits, walks, feeding, medication administration, and companionship throughout the day. I understand the importance of consistency and communication, and I enjoy spending quality time with pets while helping them maintain their normal routines when their families are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine and environment to reduce stress. I follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions carefully, while monitoring for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. With 27 years of veterinary experience, I understand the importance of safety, attention to detail, and clear communication with pet owners.
“Katya was great. She managed everything as expected and rolled with the unexpected, which included our missed/delayed flight, our out of range lack of cell communication, and the addition of a house guest whose schedule she navigated around. I really appreciated her flexibility.”


“Gypsie and Robby were great! My cat needed checked on once a day while I was on vacation. They were always on time, spent quality time with my kitty and sent multiple pictures!”


“Caroline was great with my kitty! She was very communicative, and I appreciate her effort into learning how to administer Kiwi’s asthma medication. Would definitely trust her to watch Kiwi in the future :)”


“Holly is an amazingly friendly and skilled pet caretaker! She was communicative and showed up on time every day. I was so grateful to have her to help me give my kitty his meds while my wife was away. She clearly has an enormous amount of experience with animals at all different stages of life, and my grumpy old man took to her very quickly and she handled him without any issues. She handled him better than any of the vets he's seen, in person or at home, so clearly she's some sort of Cat Whisperer! ^-^”

About: I grew up with animals - like quite a few! I've had cats since I was born, dogs since I was 8, a horse, a ferret, a bird, some fish...I've just always loved them! I would always take care of the neighbors' animals when they went out of town growing up, and have pet sat for many family members and friends. I even have some experience with goats and chickens :) I currently have a pug named Ricki, but live on a family compound with a great Swiss mountain dog, a pomeranian, and my mom's two frenchies visit often. I have a fairly flexible schedule throughout the week and would love to fill my days taking care of your fur babies I am currently without a pet for the first time in my life! Both of my senior pups passed during Covid after living long, healthy lives and while I'm not ready for another pet quite yet - I am really missing having an animal friend. I tend to have 3-4 day weekends and can be available during weeknights depending on time and location. I believe we are so lucky to have animals in our lives and want to do everything to keep them happy and healthy! I am available to pop in for a snuggle/play/walk session for your dogs or cats and am available for extended care in the right circumstances (house sitting or dog boarding). I do have a few dogs on the property (an 8 year old pug and a one year old great swiss mountain dog) so we would need to make sure everyone gets a long first. For dog walks, I would plan walk just your pooch to ensure they get the proper attention they deserve.

I am currently working part time with a very flexible schedule. My husband is retired and loves animals as well. So your fur baby will get 2 for 1 as he also loves to care for animals too. Pets are less stressed and relax more when in their own home. While you are away you know your pets are being well cared for in their own environment.
“I needed some help walking my dog due to an injury. Jojo was able to help on short notice. She’s friendly and reliable. My dogs a little shy around new people, but was clearly happy to see her after a couple days. If he’s happy I’m happy 😊 😸”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep commitment to treating every pet like my own. I go beyond basic care by prioritizing each animal’s unique personality, needs, and routines. I consistently communicate with pet parents, provide detailed updates, and ensure a safe, loving environment. My calm, dependable nature helps pets feel secure and happy while you’re away. I genuinely love what I do! I am also a 6’ athlete who can handle big dogs with ease. Pet care fits perfectly in my daily routine! I currently don’t have any other work obligations as I have recently graduated college and am looking to make some money doing what I love! I am a tidy person who is respectful of the environment, home, pets and any neighbors the client may have as well. I am a reliable communicator who genuinely cares for your pets and follows instructions carefully.
“Juan came by to take care of our kitties and it was perfect. He was communicative, respectful of our house, and did everything exactly as we wanted. Definitely rebooking with him again for Kitty care.”

About: Hello all! I've have dogs my whole entire life, and as I grew up I became more and more passionate to work and be around dogs. I've had multiple years of working at a dog daycare facility, as well as worked at a Petsmart in their boarding/daycamp. At this point I've taken care of hundreds of dogs! I have 3 dogs currently myself. An Australian Shepard, and Aussie/Border collie mix, and another lab/German shepard mix. I'm used to the high energy dogs for sure! I absolutely adore how every dog has a different personality. It's what makes them so special! I am currently looking for work after moving back in the area, so I have plenty of availability and give lots of time and focus to your pet! I pay close attention to dogs body language, and can recognize when they're scared/happy/angry. I've even had to save a dog from choking on a ball once! Of course I give all dogs the same love and attention as if they're my own. They deserve it!

“Jenny took care of our neighbor's dog Willow for us when we were taking care of it and had to leave unexpectedly for 3 days, the boarding experience went very well and she was very thoughtful and asked good questions prior to the boarding. Willow had a great time playing with her dog and when I came to pick her up Jenny had Willow's crate all packed up with her things and ready for me, which I really appreciated. Willow is a dog who can be anxious at times but it was obvious that she felt very comfortable with Jenny. We are pretty picky about who watches our pooches and are glad to have found someone in Gold Bar who we feel good about recommending or using for our own dogs.”
“Somer and Thomas were so great. They helped us out of a jam by accepting a very last-minute boarding reservation for our senior Great Pyrenees. Rosalie stayed 3 nights and was very well taken care of. When we picked her up she was calm, happy, and tired. Somer seems very knowledgeable about dog care and behavior and she even picked up on a medical issue Rosalie has and kept her cool and comfortable through a hot few days. We very much appreciate it and would absolutely recommend Somer and Thomas for boarding.”

“Dawn was absolutely fantastic!! She was able to accommodate my dog last minute and is super amazing!!! Her place is a dog haven, with a lush yard and lots of shady tall trees. She sent me pupdates all weekend, and I could tell my dog was having a blast, and was super content and happy. Her pets are total sweethearts and they all got along great. An absolute gem, if you want the best for your pooch, look no further.”

“Kelsey was amazing with our 2 year old Newfoundland Poodle mix! Our dog is very large and new to boarding, so had some nerves to work out. Kelsey was very patient and kind with him. On day 1 he was reluctant to come out of the kennel, but by the end of his stay, he was happily running in the yard with other dogs. Kelsey sent us videos and pictures for his entire stay. We really appreciate her great care for our silly goofball”

“Lisa watched our 13 year old Yorkie for 8 days when we went to the Bahamas! We love Lisa and knew our Zoey was is good hands. Lisa sent us updates and amazing pictures every day. Lisa goes above and beyond with love and care. It was so comforting to know we could relax and not worry about Zoey. We would highly recommend Lisa!”

“Our dog Zuzu loves coming to stay with Julie! She's always well taken care of and gets lots of play and cuddles 💕 and we get regular photos and updates, and peace of mind while out of town”


“Kramer LOVED Jessica! We are very thankful for how well she treated him with beautiful walks, playing with toys and letting him just follower her around. He really appreciated her letting him sleep with them. We loved the frequent updates with pictures; it really helped us deal with being away from him. We are so glad we found her to watch him when we need to go out of town.”

“Great communication and worked around me messing up with the app with ease! Ransford is not necessarily the easiest dog and I got nothing but glowing reports because of how much fun he was having! She did well with his meds and I trusted his safety in the house and with the other family members, furry and human. She will be my first call next time I need a sitter!”

“Cynthia watched Babii on 4th of July weekend and it was wonderful. She took awesome care of Babii and frequently update us with pictures of Babii while we were out of town. This is very much appreciated and gave us a peace of mind. When we go to pick Babii up, he came home really happy with us. We knew that he was being taken care of really well. We highly recommend Cynthia if you are looking to board your pup!”


“Todd is always our go to when we need someone to watch our dogs. His home is dog friendly and he always sends updates to ensure we know that the dogs are doing well. I would recommend him without hesitation.”

“Margaret and Michael took the best care of our dog, Penny, in their home for 10 days. It was our first time leaving Penny and they were amazing - extremely responsive from start to finish, made sure to get to know Penny and ask all the right questions in advance, sent daily photo updates, and kept us updated on how she was doing during her stay. Penny came home happy and healthy and it was clear she had a great time at their home. So thankful to have found Margaret and we will definitely be reaching out to her again!”

“Chance always comes home so happy from Helen's house! She's lovely and caring and such a dog lover. She's taken the time to get to know our dog and he loves to go on his "vacations" at her house. ”

“So thankful to have found Rebecca on Rover. She takes care of my Bernese Mountain Dog like he is her own — plenty of play time, walks, and pets. It’s clear Enzo adores her by the way he runs up to the door when we arrive! Enzo comes home tired and happy every time. I especially love Rebecca’s communication. It’s clear and frequent, with photo and video updates throughout each stay. Highly recommend booking with her.”

“Carrie is awesome!! She’s so good with my my dog Franklin. She is communicative and sent pictures throughout the day. I always know Franklin is having fun and is well taken care of when Carrie is watching him!!!”

“Janin (and familiy) has become Portia's second family when I'm away. It's incredibly comforting to know how well cared for she is. She's always incredibly excited to say hello and see what's new when we arrive and has a special bond with Janin, making sure to say goodbye when I pick her up. I almost feel guilty that I'm not concerned about her care when I'm gone - but extremely comforting (and thankful!) to know that I don't need to be! As always, a great stay for Portia - we'll be back in a few weeks!”

“Qintian did an amazing job taking care of our 8 month old puppy. We received lots of videos of him with a big smile on his face having a great time. Our dogs also got along great, so we were happy knowing he had a friend to play with. Highly recommend!”

“Susan and David once again took such great care of both my dogs, including my elderly guy who needs a little extra TLC. I don’t know that I’d be able to travel if I hadn’t found them, I just know that my senior pup is so well cared for with Susan and David, they truly are dog whispers.”
