“We left our 2 yr old lab puppy - Butter with Alexa. Alexa was considerate about needs of Butter as a young and energetic puppy and she made sure her house was safe for Butter. While staying with Alexa, Butter went on new adventures, made new dog and cat friends and a wonderful time staying home and playing with her daughter. Thanks Alexa for taking good care of Butter.”
“Amazing! I booked a last minute stay over Fourth of July weekend and Mana was so accommodating. She squeezed in a pre stay introduction for the dogs, then took amazing care of Obi over the three days. I got so many photos (and a video) and she even refilled my poop bag dispenser from her own stash when ours ran out and sent obi home with a little extra treat. Outstanding sitter, would book again without hesitation.”

About: Ive taken care of a variety of pets throughout my life. Often I have watched pets for friends and family, mostly dogs and a few cats. Ive owned exotic pets myself so I'm comfortable watching those too if need be. I'm currently on the hunt for a job and I need to earn some money in the meantime, so why not do that with one of things I love most- animals! I have lots of freetime, but I'd rather not start too early or go too late if possible. I have a pretty roomy apartment with two roommates who are all for having pets visit as we don't have any of our own. The neighborhoods near me are perfect for walks! If I'm at your place just tell me what I need to do and I'll do it. Feel free to leave me a list of anything you can think of!

I make sure the dog’s bathroom needs are taken care of, as well as giving them treats and feeding them. I play with them a lot and fun is very important to me! When I walk them, I am sure to follow all safety rules to ensure their protection. Safety and fun are my priority!
About: Cats have always been my favorite animals, and caring for them has been a passion of mine for over 11 years. I currently work at a veterinary clinic, where I’ve gained hands-on experience safely handling cats of all ages and temperaments, including seniors and those with special medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, recognizing signs of illness or stress, and helping cats feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I’ll provide patient, compassionate care tailored to their individual personality and routine.

“Sheena did an excellent job providing daycare for my pup, Hati. Hati was able to socialize with other dogs in a more personalized environment, play and be her silly self. This is so important for my partner and I since we work 9-12 hour shifts. Sheena sent us pictures of Hati having fun and an overall review. I’m beyond grateful for her services and would recommend Sheena to anyone.”

About: A life time around dogs turns into exceptional pet care. Growing up, my family always had a furry companion from a dachshund, pug, to husky mix. A happy home is complete with tail wagging. I work remote every day of the week except Wednesdays, while my partner is a caretaker and is home every day, so your furry friend is always in good company. Your pup will enjoy a fully fenced yard of a split level, hardwood home with both grassy and paved areas, offering a variety of surfaces for play. Along with shaded fruit trees and garden beds that provide plenty of natural scents to keep curious noses engaged to sniff and explore during supervised outdoor time.
“Our guy has a great time today! We were in town for a family event and needed to have him somewhere fun and safe while he couldn’t be with us. He was tuckered out at pickup. We’ll be back if needed!”

“Ina watched my fur baby for the first time and it was an amazing experience! She kept me updated the entire day with photos and videos! I highly recommend and will definitely bring my pup back again!”
About: Over the years, my husband and I have shared our lives with all kinds of dogs: farm dogs, little dogs, a Great Dane in a studio apartment, and now our Mini Australian Shepherd. We have learned and refined our dog ownership skills over time, finally investing in professional training for both our dog and ourselves in 2025. That experience shaped the kind of care I offer today. I believe dogs thrive with clear structure, consistency, and calm communication. I strive to provide the kind of boarding experience I wish I could find for my own dog, where training, routines, and boundaries are respected while you're away. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my day. We have a large, fully fenced backyard, daily walks, and a very friendly Mini Australian Shepherd who enjoys canine company. Your dog won't be left alone for a typical workday. I do leave the house for school drop-offs and pick-ups, errands, or weekend activities. Dogs should be comfortable being alone for a few hours. Because I have both a young child and my own dog, I only accept dogs that: -Are friendly with children and other dogs. -Are up to date on vaccinations and flea prevention. -Can comfortably settle into a family home.
“We booked Felix on short notice for evening daycare, and he was very thoughtful in assessing whether our dog would be a good fit for his setup. We really appreciated the detailed updates and feedback throughout the stay. Felix has a strong understanding of dog behavior and group dynamics, which gave us peace of mind, and our somewhat nervous dog seemed to fit right in with his pack. Thanks Felix!”
“I cannot say enough good things about the care Spring provides- knowing my pup will be safe and happy, that he receives attentive care, play and rest times, lots of walks, and positive, consistent communication- I am so appreciative of amazing sitters like Spring!!”
About: Dogs are family, and I treat every pup in my care like my own. I’m an experienced, dependable pet sitter who enjoys getting to know each dog’s quirks, personality and routine. I have experience caring for energetic puppies who need extra playtime, patience and attention, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra comfort and a little more TLC. No matter their age or personality, I’ll make sure your best friend feels right at home while their human is away! I work from home so I am very flexible to accommodate your pup’s routine into mine! I like to stay active with long walks with my own pup and going to nearby trails/swimming holes, and then curl up on the couch to unwind after we exercise. I’ll keep you updated with photos, messages and all the little details that help you feel connected so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. My home is a spacious apartment with a large, fenced in patio ideal for lounging in the sun, supervised outdoor time or simply watching the world go by. I also have a friendly 4 year old Golden Retriever named Captain who loves having new friends! I take introductions at each dog’s pace/comfort level and give them plenty of space to settle in. I want your dog to feel like they’re staying with a friend, not being boarded!
“Rafael and Celeste are truly wonderful sitters! From the start, their communication was excellent, keeping me updated with plenty of photos of Bolt’s happy, smiling face. They went above and beyond to ensure that Bolt was well cared for, even arranging a meet-up at the park beforehand to make sure our dogs got along. Their attention to detail and genuine care made me feel completely comfortable leaving Bolt in their hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely trust them with Bolt in the future!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets and house sitting since I was a kid, with over 15 years of hands-on experience including formal pet care and training. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and if I hadn’t ended up in tech, I probably would’ve become a vet! I work from home full-time, so your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced backyard, which is perfect for safe playtime during boarding stays. I have experience with pets of all ages and needs — from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want a calm, cozy environment. I live with my fiancé and our 2-year-old mini doodle, Bear. He’s about 15 lbs of pure sweetness and loves other dogs, but he’s also very good at giving space to pups who prefer a quieter vibe. If you’re considering boarding, I always want to make sure you’re fully comfortable with him sharing the home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority! Work from home, daily care with a wide open schedule! Always happy to go on daily walks and keep your pet company throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard and a sweet little doodle to keep your pet company. I also work from my computer, so quick to respond to messages and happy to send photos of your pet’s visit!
About: 🐕 I get it — your dog Is your best friend. I work from home, so I’m here all day for belly rubs, long walks, and neighborhood adventures. I only take one Rover dog at a time, so your pup gets my full attention. Dogs are welcome on the couch — and pretty much anywhere they feel comfortable. My own dog is friendly and playful and is an Einstein when it comes to sensing when another dog needs space. My house has a yard and has a laid back Summer Camp vibe. ❤️ I am self-employed and for the most part am home most of the day, so your dog will have my attention throughout the day. My schedule’s flexible, so I can stick to your dog’s routine. Your dogs needs are my perfect excuse to procrastinate. Neighborhood walks, playing fetch in the yard will give your dog lots of steady, loving attention throughout the day. 🏡 Safety and comfort are everything here. I live in my own home, and your dog will have full run of the space — no crates (unless requested), no off-limits furniture, and plenty of cozy places to relax. I only host one guest dog at a time, so your pup gets my full attention and a peaceful, low-stress environment. I do have one friendly resident dog who’s used to sharing and enjoys having new siblings. I always introduce dogs slowly to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Your dog will be treated like family — with lots of love, supervision, and space to just be a dog.

“Working with Charlotte is a breeze. She is easy to work with and listens well. She also asks good questions and is on time and attentive to the dogs. I look forward to having her continued help.”
About: I’ve always had a dog in my family, and I took care of my own dog for 15 yrs until he passed away last year. I can’t have dogs at my apartment and I love walking. It’s just better with a friend; your pup :) I understand dog behavior from years of taking care of them for friends and family, and I always adhere to the rules of food intake, special medical needs, and general care. I have a disability, but it does not stop me from getting out and going for a nice long walk. I’d love to take a dog along on my adventures. I also have plenty of time to check in on them daily. I treat the animals I care for with respect and common sense. If they are reactive and can’t be around other dogs, I have experience there. If they are aged and need extra help, I’ve done that too. I treat the house I visit with care and respect as well.
