“Aarika was very responsive, polite and flexible. I felt that she was easily accessible. My pup was very happy and clearly well taken care of. It was clear to me that she treated him as if he was her own and that’s exactly what I’m looking for in a Dog Sitter . I almost don’t want to leave her a good review because I want to keep her services all to myself! Haha .”

“Omi was calm and comfortable with Elaine, which was was perfect for our nervous young chihuahua. She specializes in small dogs, so this was a perfect fit. We plan on having Omi stay with her in the future.”

“Amber was flexible, communicative and easygoing with our two chaotic, hot-and-cold cats. She gave them a private space, worked to integrate them with her other pets, and was patient with them even though they caused some trouble. I loved receiving daily updates with hilarious stories of their antics!”

“Buddy loved his time at Avery's house! Avery was very communicative and sent videos/photos during his stay there. I really appreciate that she did a meet and greet beforehand and asked such thorough questions to make sure she knew as much about Buddy as she could before his stay. Buddy looks forward to his next visit with Avery and Theo!”
“Morgan S. Was AMAZING!! Recommend 10/10. She kept me up to date on how my puppy did and even took extra care of a past injury of his. She sent lots of photos and was very response to any questions or messages I sent! Will be booking again for sure!”


“Jennifer is outstanding! Finding her was truly a God send. We recently got a puppy and were worried we wouldn't be able to find a sitter in time before we all returned work. I stumbled across Rover, did a quick search and there she was. Communicating with her was simple and response time was almost instant! She took our little girl in with open arms and have provided her excellent care! Our pup adapted to Jennifer, her animals, and her home with ease. She has helped me with a few late care requests and accommodates my early drop off and late pick up due to work! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! :)”

“Leslie provided an excellent boarding experience for our Frenchie, Kahi. My husband and I are always nervous to leave Kahi, but this time we felt more at ease knowing she was in great hands with Leslie. Leslie welcomed Kahi into her home and was knowledgable of what Kahi needed to feel safe and comfortable. She was diligent to provide daily updates and pictures. The pictures showed that Kahi was well-adjusted to Leslie’s home and having a great time playing and bonding with Leslie’s pups. We trusted Kahi was safe with Leslie which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. 10/10 would recommend!”

“I highly recommend Cynthia and plan to book again soon!. Our pup had an excellent experience, especially for her first visit. Cynthia went above and beyond in every category, including communication and care, walking her daily, and even giving her a bath. She came home bright, happy and in beautiful condition with special treats. Cynthia is a warm, caring, and very responsible sitter, noting all details. Her emphasis on safety, and frequent photos were especially appreciated. Our pup was very well looked after in every way, thanks to the kindness of Cynthia!”


“Kendra is a wonderful person and will provide excellent and diligent care for your treasured pup. She was perfect in every way, from meeting our shy girl to giving her space to explore and roam when we met her for the first time. She is calm, thoughtful and her communications were excellent, sending frequent updates and letting our pup be herself. Daily walks, cuddles and care about feeding were perfect. I highly recommend Kendra, and so glad we have found her. Bonus is she only takes one dog at a time.”

“Chelsea was truly amazing! She treated our baby girl like her own. She slept with her every night and loved on her like she was her own. our girl slept all day after we brought her home. Would definitely send our baby there again!”

“Trine was amazing to work with! She didn't mind my changing schedule and was able to move her schedule around to fit mine! And Harley seemed to really enjoy his stay with her too! I will absolutely use her again in the future!!!”

“Jayde did an amazing job watching our 10 month old puppy while we were away for a week. We got frequent updates and photos, and Jayde went above and beyond to accommodate us when travel plans changed. Our pup, Poppy, had the best time. Thank you, Jayde!!”

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, I’ve had the joy of raising and looking after pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My own dog lived past 15 years old, and supporting him through the health challenges that come with age taught me how to administer a wide range of medications and provide the patient, attentive care senior dogs need to stay comfortable and happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, quiet companionship, or a little extra support due to age or medical needs, I’m committed to making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to keep their routine steady, their tail wagging, and your mind at ease knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Now that I’m not working outside the home, I’m able to devote my days to something I genuinely love — caring for pets. My schedule is calm, flexible, and fully centered around being available when pet parents need me most. Whether it’s early‑morning visits, midday check‑ins, or keeping a steady routine for your pet while you’re away, I have the time and attention to make it happen. I’m an early riser, so morning feedings, walks, or drop‑ins fit naturally into my day. I enjoy starting the morning with purpose, and there’s nothing better than beginning the day with a happy tail wag or a content purr. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can offer consistent care, low‑stress routines, and quick communication — all things that help pets feel secure and help you feel confident while you’re away. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into a busy schedule. It’s a meaningful part of my everyday life, and I’m committed to giving your pets the same calm, reliable, loving care I give my own. I’ve learned that the little details make the biggest difference. When I’m in your home, I follow a careful routine to make sure your pets stay secure, comfortable, and stress‑free. * I keep doors and gates fully secured at all times and double‑check them before leaving. * I follow your pet’s routine exactly as you describe it, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any special instructions. * I monitor your pet’s behavior and environment closely, making sure they’re safe, calm, and not getting into anything they shouldn’t. * I keep all medications, treats, and supplies organized and give medications exactly as directed. * I maintain a clean, hazard‑free space by ensuring food, plants, and household items are out of reach. * I stay in communication with you, sending updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. * I respect your home by locking up properly, turning off lights, and keeping everything just as I found it.
“Jory was great with our boy and a life saver for us with a last minute request!! He was in great communication the entire time and will definitely be booking again in the future!”

“Luna’s first daycare experience was awesome! She slept the entire hour and a half car ride afterward and for a 6 month old puppy in a car?! I know she played hard! She was so loved and cared for :)”

“Olga was Amazing! I was anxious to leave my dog with someone to fly out for an interview, but she immediately made me feel comfortable knowing I could rely on her to take good care of my baby. Olga was quick to respond and meet and was flexible with my schedule, including a flight delay that made me miss my connection. My pet is a senior with many needs and limited mobility, and Olga took good care of her. I could tell my dog enjoyed her stay at Olga's adorable home with fenced back yard as she was relaxed and happy when I returned. Olga saved the day by being the perfect overnight pet sitter on short notice, and I am grateful to have found her. I definitely recommend her!”

“Kelsey and family cared for Lola while we went on a trip. Pictures of Lola made being away from her more bearable. She was so well cared for- we feel like Kelsey would be our #1 choice next time we travel. We recommend Kelsey to anyone who is looking for an excellent home away from home for their dog.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our two dogs were so well cared for, and it was clear they were treated with love and attention the entire time. We appreciated the daily photos and updates. It made being away so much easier. We will absolutely be booking again with Danielle”

“Tyeler has been an absolute blessing. She does a phenomenal job watching our kitty cat and our cat LOVES when Tyeler dies her check ins. So much so, our skittish and "hates everyone" cat rubs up to her asking for pets and head rubs! Tyeler is always prompt and keeps us updated on everything when we are away so we never need to worry.”


“Was in a huge crunch, time wise, and Morgan stepped up and delivered big time. She is personable, responsible, diligent and ridiculously willing (in a great way) to ensure my pets were well cared for and my mind was able to focus on my travels, and eased. Morgan sent daily pics of my pets that showed they were growing more accustomed to her twice-daily visits. She followed directions to the tee and even went beyond what was asked. Of course I’ve already booked her again! Thank you, Morgan!!!”


“Karolina has been a lifesaver for us this summer. She is very responsive, always sends photos, and is willing to go the distance (figurative and literally—we live pretty far off the beaten path). She took the time to get to know our kitty. I was surprised when Klaire, who is shy, was on Karolina’s lap by the third visit. Thank you, Karolina!”


“Avery has checked in on our little orange girl a few times now and we are always so grateful because we know that we don’t need to stress. We would recommend Avery to anyone!”

“Kayla was great! She came in last minute to look after my two very shy cats. Her daily updates and photos helped me relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my cats were in good hands. She was able to convince my timid male to come out of his hiding spot for pets and treats. She even changed the battery in my fire alarm. It was so nice after an exhausting day of travel to come home to a clean house, a functioning fire alarm and two happy cats. I would definitely hire Kayla again”

“Amber and her darling children are great! Our kitten was slowly introduced to the family and quickly became part of the family. Amber communicated well and sent photos and videos.”

“Thank you Madeline for loving our cats while we were out. She is prompt, and responsible. We trusted Madeline and would definitely contact her next time we are out of town.”


“Karlee was the sweetest and most caring cat sitter! Every drop-in visit had a loving note and many photos, so I could really tell she cared for my cat. She was very responsive with communications as well. As a Rover cat sitter myself, I was quite impressed and felt better on my first trip away knowing that my cat was in good hands.”

“We had never hired a pet-sitter before, and we were nervous about leaving our cats home while I had to take a 3-day business trip. One of our cats is shy around other people and has weird eating habits. Zane set our minds at ease. She visited with us first and got to know the cats, then she gave us update photos/videos and comments with every visit. She was patient and kind and really took the time to earn our shy cat's trust. We would absolutely hire her again in the future.”


“She went above and beyond to help out with not only my animals but my garden too! Her communication was excellent and she was kind and genuine. So grateful I found a great sitter!”

“Bershka and Lionel are seriously the absolute best people to watch your furry friends! They love our cat almost as much as we do and we never have to worry when our cat is with them. Another successful visit on the books! Thank you so much for going above and beyond!”


About: Cats are my specialty, and I understand that every cat has their own unique personality and routine. I currently care for my own cats, including one who takes daily steroid medication, so I'm comfortable following medication schedules and paying close attention to changes in behavior. Whether your cat loves to play, prefers quiet company, or simply needs someone to keep their routine consistent, I'll provide attentive, compassionate care. Every visit includes fresh food and water, litter box cleaning, playtime or companionship, and photo updates so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands.
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and have worked in Animal Shelters and know how to compassionately take care of pets with all manners of needs. I have also taken dog training courses at Colorado State University and have loved my own dog Bandit for 3 years. I am currently watching others furry family members full time and have open availability for all your needs! No matter you and your pets schedule I can be there. I am adaptable to care for pets in any home environment and can quickly figure out your equipment and routine to keep things as “normal” for your fur baby as possible.
About: I have 2 years of experience working at a dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. From playful puppies to senior dogs with disabilities, I've seen it all. Growing up surrounded by a variety of dogs, from tiny Yorkies to gentle Great Danes, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs. Whether it's providing extra care for seniors or giving energetic pups their much-needed exercise, I’m passionate about keeping your furry friends happy and healthy! I’m available to care for your pets throughout the week! Whether you need a dog walk, check-in, or caring for your pet while away, I’m here to help! Let me know your pet’s needs, and I’ll make sure they’re well cared for during the times that work best for you. Please note: Starting June 1, 2025, my HOUSE SITTING rates will be updated. On Rover, the listed rate will show as $60 per night, which applies when you're away on vacation or need care over multiple days with daytime coverage. However, if you're booking longer daytime care without an overnight stay (for example, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM), the rate will be adjusted to $20 per hour for the time I’m actively caring for your pets. While the initial booking may still show as $60, I will manually adjust the rate on my end and send it to you for approval before confirming. This helps ensure you're only paying for the time you need, and your pets still receive high-quality, attentive care. Additionally, please note that for extended visits, I can provide early morning and late night drop ins, but will stay in my own home as I have my own fur babies to care for ☺️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in the familiar environment of your home, ensuring they feel secure and relaxed. I build trust through consistent, loving attention, treating each pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s following specific routines or providing a calm atmosphere, I make sure your furry friend feels safe and well cared for while you’re away.
“Pam is awesome! She is flexible and accommodating. She house sat our dogs Teddy & Ellie for a few days and sent lots of updates & pictures. I consider myself to be a helicopter dog parent and Pam quickly put me at ease with her great communication :) Teddy & Ellie were tired and happy when we returned. We will definitely be using Pam again in the future! ”


“Katya did a wonderful job taking care of our kitty for 9 days, letting us know when she stopped by every evening, made sure we were on schedule to arrive home when planned, and offered to help with things like putting our recycling out. Most importantly, we came home to a healthy and happy kitty who had obviously gotten some love and attention when we were gone. Thank you Katya!”
“Patient and fun family, was available with a few days notice. Piper loved her tennis ball y’all brought. I can tell it’s her current favorite as it’s completely falling apart now.”

“Wonderful as always! Luna is happy, loved and fed when we get home. If you're reading this, tip on Venmo. Unfortunately there's a tip limit. And Emily provides care, reassurance and constant communication wich to me, is worth more than 20%”

“Jennifer took such great care of my dog Ziggy. She even gave him a bath and clipped his nails. We will definitely be using her again! We highly recommend Jennifer!”

“Our dog seemed very happy staying with Olga and her family. We felt confident she was in good hands and well cared for. It's great to have a trusted sitter to take care of our pup!”

“Katrina is a gem - quick responses, and was very easy going and willing to roll with it when I (embarrassingly) forgot my dog's bag of lunch, toys, etc. the first time I brought him over. I don't think he even missed his things, given how well her place is set up for dogs. The big, fenced back yard is a dream!”

“Leslie is awesome to work with. We started with a meet and greet and then Toast stayed with her for daycare. She was very communicative, and was wonderful with Toast. Sometimes he can get really excited and stressed with too much time with other dogs, but when I picked him up he was relaxed and happy. We'll totally book with her again.”

“Chelsey was absolutely amazing! She saved my day by accepting my last minute request within 3 hours. She took incredible care of my pug Hulu, and her own pug, Nigel, was so friendly and welcoming. Hulu had such a great time playing with them that she didn’t even want to leave!”

“My little guy had a great day at Sara’s. His daily needs were met and he got lots of love and playtime. He came home exhausted and napped the rest of the day away 😊. We will definitely be a repeat customer next time we have a need for daycare. Thank you!”

“Amazing and overly generous dog sitter. My dog immediately took a liking to her and she sent many pictures throughout the day that immediately put my mind at ease. Would absolutely have Jayde dog sit again. She was wonderful”
“Amber is awesome! My baby is so excited to see her and comes home so sleepy. I also absolutely love the cute videos I get throughout the day. She genuinely cares like they’re her own, very appreciative she puts up with my psycho puppy!”

“Brooke was very communicative and my boy came home sooooo tired! She has a large yard where he zoomed with her dog and she walked him multiple times during the day! Thanks Brooke and Lambeau!”

“She took great care of my dog Damian! He came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Communication was smooth, and I really appreciated the updates. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone needing a reliable sitter.”

“Annie was super responsive when we were searching for a dog sitter for the day and made herself available at the very last minute. Our dog seemed to have a great time and was exhausted and happy when we picked him up in the evening.”

“Elaine took the best care of my girl. Sadie is old, overweight, and not in the best of health so having peace of mind that she’s well taken care of and having a fun day makes me feel less stressed about leaving her for the day.”
“Morgan was absolutely wonderful with Vader! You could tell he loved her. She walked him frequently and gave him lots of love and us lots of pics. Would absolutely highly recommend!!!”

“Morgan was simply the best! We couldn’t have asked for a more caring, communicative and flexible first Rover sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable having Henry stay with her and her adorable dog Baby. She sent frequent pictures of their activities and ensured Henry got exercise, rest, healthy snacks and attention. We were only visiting Bellingham but wish she lived in our town - we would have her hang with Henry all the time! Cannot recommend enough. Thank you Morgan!”

“Morgan has been reliable, communicative, and fun to work with...she is clearly very fond of our Mini Schnauzer Archie, who is a challenge. We are new to town and Morgan's visits have allowed us to get out and have fun. happy Holidays, Morgan!”

“Zane has been very helpful for our two dogs with walkings during the day while we are at work. It is especially more complex as we have a 3 month old puppy who is still in training. Zane has been reliable and communicative throughout the day while we are away.”

“Madeline came by to get the dogs zoomiez out so they didn't spend too much alone time being mischievous. I'd recommend Madeline and hope to work with her in the future!”

About: I still have few spots available in May, June and part of July, so book your pet sitting now! Sedro-Woolley, Bellingham and Mount Vernon! As a school bus driver, I work 6-10 AM, then have few hours break and go back to my afternoon drive 2-6 PM. To ensure proper care for animals, I like to book clients no further than a 30 min drive from Sedro Woolley. Please take this into consideration when looking at a sitter for your pets! The school year ends June 12th and I am available until mid-July. Afterwards, I am taking time off for my own motorcycle travels (this time to Colorado) and then spend August in Europe :) I have owned cats, large dogs (100 + lbs), and horses over the years, so I'm well-versed in handling a variety of pet needs. I am comfortable around animals and can stand my ground with them. I enjoy large breeds and, having two 150Lbs + dogs before I know how hard it is to find someone to take care of them! I am available for short and long term stays in Whatcom and Skagit counties. Dogs, cats, horses, turtles and fish - all welcomed and loved! I work as a school bus driver, so I leave the house early in the morning for few hours, then have 2-4 hrs off and then drive the kids home in the afternoon, usually 2-6 pm. If this is something that will work for you and your pet family, please reach out! I usually do a greet & meet before to make sure that everyone is comfortable! I will follow the directions you give me, be it giving medication to your pets, putting it in the crate at night or when away and any other rules that you may have.
“Kayla is excellent with my normally reactive dogs. Having another person help me walk the dogs more frequently has helped them be less reactive to others. I appreciate this service so much! Thank you, Kayla!!”


“Kayla has done a fabulous job. I had a knee replacement surgery and the next day after I asked her for help. She has walked my dog every single day for a half an hour. She is prompt. He is happy when he comes back and she sends me a few pictures every day. I feel confident that she can handle my 70 pound dog even if he sees a rabbit.”

About: Hi, I'm Zora, and I am 19-year-old student who grew up in Mount Vernon. I am currently taking a gap year in Norway, and I am looking to do some pet care when I return home for the summer. During high school I was a dedicated leadership volunteer and a teacher aide at a preschool. I have a cat and a small dog and I love taking care of pets! I can stay at your house or just drop by when needed, and I can walk smaller dogs or calmer large dogs - I'm just not strong enough to handle super big dogs if they pull a lot when walking. I am very calm and gentle and I volunteered at the NOAH animal shelter for three years with both dogs and cats. I love animals and my goal is to make them feel comfortable and safe when they are in my care. I don’t have my summer schedule solidified yet, but I will prioritize any bookings made here. Once I make a commitment, I stick with it. I do not offer boarding, but I have a small, dog-friendly car so I can take them for a hike or a visit to the park if you are comfortable. I will spend as much time as I can with your pets to ensure they feel loved, comfortable, and happy when they are in my care. I am gentle and patient and will not force affection on animals who aren’t enthusiastic about it.

About: I’ve had all kinds of animals since I can remember, from cats to parrots to duck and chickens. Unfortunately my mom is allergic to dogs but I grew up with them at my grandparents house and all my friends. I work part time and I am on a break from college, but I still have lots of time to spend with your furry friends! Depending on the instructions you leave me with, I’ll give your animals attention and make sure they’re fed and waters and get lots of exercise and keep your house tidy!
About: I've had dogs my entire life and love them more than anything! I have lots of experience, 20+ years and have been doing Rover on and off for 12 years now and have also been pet sitting for multiple different repeat clients for the past 15 years. I have taken care of many pets with special needs as well, including cats. We have the sweetest 4 year old 14lb Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who loves making doggy friends of all sizes. They will never be left alone for a long period of time and will have lots of outside time if they enjoy that! We have a large fenced in yard. I'm available for overnight stays in my home, day care and also available for daily drop ins or to take your pup for walks. I'd love to take care of your animal any age and whatever needs he or she may have! I'm currently home full time so I have lots of time with your pup and they won't be left along for long periods of time. I have a large fully fenced in grass yard for pups to play or relax. I constantly keep an eye on all of my visitors inside and outside.

“Heidi was great! She accepted a very last-minute request and asked great questions about Nova. She arrived early to meet her and be sure Nova would feel comfortable with her. Heidi brings great knowledge and professionalism to her work. Will call her again!”

About: I have taken care of my dog for several months, kept up with his training and spend time playing. Puppies need extra attention to grow into healthy adults. Adults need just as much affection and some play time. I work full-time weekdays but I am available in the evenings. Saturdays are free for me to play with dogs and take care of them. I can manage keeping up with a dogs training and take care of their needs at the same time! Who needs their dogs loved on or watched over?
About: Hi there! I am an elementary school teacher & during the summers, I like to spend my time outdoors, walking dogs! I have had dogs in my life since I was 6 years old. In my family, we have had dogs from little to big! I have also had plenty of experiences house sitting & caring for animals. I have experience with over night care, bathing, walking & play dates! Recently, I became a Dog Mama to a beautiful German Shepard who is the apple of my eye. In 2018, I was awarded a scholarship for my children’s book, “Ball?” (See profile picture). I wrote this book in dedication to my family dog & best friend, Astro. I continue to write more children’s books about the dogs & animals in my life. I love the cuddles, hugs, & wet kisses. ♥️ I am a primary teacher! School begins late August & ends in Mid-June. I am free during the summers and most major holidays. Please reach out in advance to schedule any visits on holidays. I will not be hosting any dogs in my home at this time. I prefer to walk dogs in the great outdoors! I also offer drop in visits. Thank you very much.
“Avery is a fabulous person to work with. I have 2 rescue pups both nervous with new people. I set up 2 walks with her through Rover before our trip to be sure everyone was comfortable. I appreciate her time, and experience. She is amazing!”

“She took care of my babies when I went to Hawaii. After the first day she hurt her leg and was very upfront with me about it, even asking if I wanted to use someone else. I chose to stick with her and she let my dogs out to potty the whole week even on crutches. Honest and reliable person!”
About: Hello! I have cared for animals almost all my life. I have a lot of experience with all kind of animals! I use to manage a dog kennel in California, until I had to move. Due to my husband being in the military. At the kennel I administered medication, thoroughly cleaned animal messes and we even walked dogs everyday! We also did doggy daycare! I managed the kennel for almost 3years. I have also studied animal behavior and animals just tend to be comfy with me. I'd love to meet your critters! -Ashley My little family just moved here! We have 3 dogs of our own (2 big and 1 small) all of them are very friendly and love other animals! I am available for boarding, preferably in my own home, but we will figure out the best plan for you and your pet/s! I also have a fairly large backyard, Perfect for a good game of fetch! If you're interested in dog walks, every walk will be at least 30 minutes long! I have a large amount of availability! I have a large fenced in yard! My 3 dogs are very friendly and social with other animals ( I socialized them a lot with doggy daycare) they really enjoy playing fetch and chasing each other! If that's something your dog would not be interested in then I'd be more than happy for him/her to have their own playtime outside with me only! My neighborhood is right by a doggy friendly lake and has plenty of walking space!

“Aarika was very responsive, polite and flexible. I felt that she was easily accessible. My pup was very happy and clearly well taken care of. It was clear to me that she treated him as if he was her own and that’s exactly what I’m looking for in a Dog Sitter . I almost don’t want to leave her a good review because I want to keep her services all to myself! Haha .”

“Amber was flexible, communicative and easygoing with our two chaotic, hot-and-cold cats. She gave them a private space, worked to integrate them with her other pets, and was patient with them even though they caused some trouble. I loved receiving daily updates with hilarious stories of their antics!”

“Buddy loved his time at Avery's house! Avery was very communicative and sent videos/photos during his stay there. I really appreciate that she did a meet and greet beforehand and asked such thorough questions to make sure she knew as much about Buddy as she could before his stay. Buddy looks forward to his next visit with Avery and Theo!”
“Morgan S. Was AMAZING!! Recommend 10/10. She kept me up to date on how my puppy did and even took extra care of a past injury of his. She sent lots of photos and was very response to any questions or messages I sent! Will be booking again for sure!”

“Leslie provided an excellent boarding experience for our Frenchie, Kahi. My husband and I are always nervous to leave Kahi, but this time we felt more at ease knowing she was in great hands with Leslie. Leslie welcomed Kahi into her home and was knowledgable of what Kahi needed to feel safe and comfortable. She was diligent to provide daily updates and pictures. The pictures showed that Kahi was well-adjusted to Leslie’s home and having a great time playing and bonding with Leslie’s pups. We trusted Kahi was safe with Leslie which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. 10/10 would recommend!”


“Kendra is a wonderful person and will provide excellent and diligent care for your treasured pup. She was perfect in every way, from meeting our shy girl to giving her space to explore and roam when we met her for the first time. She is calm, thoughtful and her communications were excellent, sending frequent updates and letting our pup be herself. Daily walks, cuddles and care about feeding were perfect. I highly recommend Kendra, and so glad we have found her. Bonus is she only takes one dog at a time.”

“Jayde did an amazing job watching our 10 month old puppy while we were away for a week. We got frequent updates and photos, and Jayde went above and beyond to accommodate us when travel plans changed. Our pup, Poppy, had the best time. Thank you, Jayde!!”

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, I’ve had the joy of raising and looking after pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My own dog lived past 15 years old, and supporting him through the health challenges that come with age taught me how to administer a wide range of medications and provide the patient, attentive care senior dogs need to stay comfortable and happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, quiet companionship, or a little extra support due to age or medical needs, I’m committed to making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to keep their routine steady, their tail wagging, and your mind at ease knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Now that I’m not working outside the home, I’m able to devote my days to something I genuinely love — caring for pets. My schedule is calm, flexible, and fully centered around being available when pet parents need me most. Whether it’s early‑morning visits, midday check‑ins, or keeping a steady routine for your pet while you’re away, I have the time and attention to make it happen. I’m an early riser, so morning feedings, walks, or drop‑ins fit naturally into my day. I enjoy starting the morning with purpose, and there’s nothing better than beginning the day with a happy tail wag or a content purr. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can offer consistent care, low‑stress routines, and quick communication — all things that help pets feel secure and help you feel confident while you’re away. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into a busy schedule. It’s a meaningful part of my everyday life, and I’m committed to giving your pets the same calm, reliable, loving care I give my own. I’ve learned that the little details make the biggest difference. When I’m in your home, I follow a careful routine to make sure your pets stay secure, comfortable, and stress‑free. * I keep doors and gates fully secured at all times and double‑check them before leaving. * I follow your pet’s routine exactly as you describe it, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any special instructions. * I monitor your pet’s behavior and environment closely, making sure they’re safe, calm, and not getting into anything they shouldn’t. * I keep all medications, treats, and supplies organized and give medications exactly as directed. * I maintain a clean, hazard‑free space by ensuring food, plants, and household items are out of reach. * I stay in communication with you, sending updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. * I respect your home by locking up properly, turning off lights, and keeping everything just as I found it.
“Jory was great with our boy and a life saver for us with a last minute request!! He was in great communication the entire time and will definitely be booking again in the future!”

“Luna’s first daycare experience was awesome! She slept the entire hour and a half car ride afterward and for a 6 month old puppy in a car?! I know she played hard! She was so loved and cared for :)”

“Olga was Amazing! I was anxious to leave my dog with someone to fly out for an interview, but she immediately made me feel comfortable knowing I could rely on her to take good care of my baby. Olga was quick to respond and meet and was flexible with my schedule, including a flight delay that made me miss my connection. My pet is a senior with many needs and limited mobility, and Olga took good care of her. I could tell my dog enjoyed her stay at Olga's adorable home with fenced back yard as she was relaxed and happy when I returned. Olga saved the day by being the perfect overnight pet sitter on short notice, and I am grateful to have found her. I definitely recommend her!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our two dogs were so well cared for, and it was clear they were treated with love and attention the entire time. We appreciated the daily photos and updates. It made being away so much easier. We will absolutely be booking again with Danielle”

“Very thankful for Kimberly! She sent photos every day and I can tell my girls had a blast. Kimberly was extremely accommodating and took extra steps to make sure I was comfortable (this was my first time boarding). Highly recommend!!”

“Laura was communicative and reliable in preparation and during our pup’s care. Felt she went above and beyond to ensure our dog was happy and well cared for, from pickup/drop off offerings to navigating our holiday travel/availability. Would recommend her!”

“Lenore was amazing! Very responsive and easy to communicate with. Her dog Rook is friendly and very well mannered. She has a fenced yard and is conveniently located. Kept me up to date throughout Fozzi’s stay and I got tons of pictures/videos!!!”

“Katrina helped me out last minute while visiting the area to hike. Between Katrina and her sisters it seemed that my chihuahuas had a lot of attention and love! My dogs weren't even in a rush to leave so I know they enjoyed their new human friends.”

“Sophia was wonderful and exactly the kind of person we were looking for to watch after our little bug for the first time. I could tell right away that she holds a lot of care and respect for animals, and I think Nori was even a little unsure about saying goodbye. She even kindly sent Nori home with a toy that she fell in love with! She gave us plenty of photos and updates, and was incredibly flexible with our schedule and Nori’s need. I can’t wait for Nori to visit Sofia and her three pups again, and highly recommend if you’re looking for a sitter you can trust! ❤️”
