“Absolutely incredible experience! Dana made me feel completely at ease and earned my full trust with my two dogs. They were so well cared for, with plenty of walks and fun adventures. I’m beyond grateful for the amazing care and attention they received! 100% would recommend and book again!”
“Lieb’s son took personal care of our Blondie. She came back tired and exhausted from all the fun fetch and swim play she had. If your dog loves playing in the pool this is definitely a great option. The owner’s dog Jaguar is well trained and has such calm temperament that even surprised me. Lieb took us in a last minute situation which was great all around.”
“Cathy is calm, friendly, caring, and down-to-earth. She watched my 3-year-old Yorkie, Coletta, for a day and I could tell she really cares about dogs (and people). When I arrived at Cathy's home, she greeted Coletta and I with a warm smile and a welcome to her home. Spice and Cinnamon were in their crates at first so Coletta could smell, run around, and get used to Cathy's home. Gradually, Spice and Cinnamon were let out of their crate to meet Coletta. They were friendly and nice to Coletta. Everyone played well together. I left Coletta in good hands. Cathy's home has lots of gates for safety and a beautiful fenced in back yard; even wee-wee pads just in case! After a few hours, Cathy sent me a picture of Coletta lounging on her soft mat, completely content. I wanted Coletta to have a good experience in someone's home and to be able to play with other dogs and she did. Coletta will be coming back many more times!!! Thank you, Cathy.”
“Sunny was a wonderful dog sitter! She was friendly and attentive. She made our family feel comfortable leaving our 15 year old dog when we were away on vacation. She communicated daily sending updates and pictures. We can tell Caesar had a great time. Thank you Sunny for taking such good care of our dog. We will definitely use Sunny again in the future!”
“We are very happy to ask Maureen for our Chamonix. Maureen was waiting for us in front of her house to do a first meeting before sitting. She’s very reliable and responsible. She kindly updated how Chamonix’s doing through her stay. We will definitely return to her if we needs someone next time.”
“Priscilla is amazing. Clearly a dog person. Very caring and attentive and responsive. She sent us great pictures and kept us updated on how our dog was doing. Highly recommended. We have booked multiple states with her already.”
“Anat was great with Bodi. He’s a puppy and she was super responsive, attentive to his needs, and followed my instructions to a tee. He had fun play dates and we received lots of fun videos and pictures.”
“Nina and Augustine were amazing sitters for our dog and we highly recommend! Very responsive while we were away and on drop off / pick up. They have a great home and environment for dogs and we will definitely rebook with them again soon!”
“Great people who returned to me a happy dog! They were willing to make some accommodations for my pup, and didnt spam my phone with updates nor did they leave me in the dark.”
“Our family dog, Mike, has stayed with Ken & Irene for a few visits now. They have always very accommodating in terms of dropping off and picking up--it's easy which is appreciated! Mike seems to love it there and fits right in. When he returns home he does not act funny or stressed out--this is because he felt right at home at Ken & Irene's house!”
“Our dog Larry was so well taken care of and loved he slept for a full day after picking him up from Ana. I wasn’t worried at all, which is the best gift for a vacation! We will definitely use Ana again!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since the fourth grade, and I truly can’t remember a time without one! Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds—whether for neighbors, family, friends, or even friends of friends. I’ve cared for puppies up to senior pups.Dogs have always been a part of my everyday life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. We absolutely adore our Chihuahua, Romeo, and we’d care for your furry friend just like we care for him — with love, patience, and lots of cuddles. My husband and I split our work-from-home days, so someone’s almost always around during the week, and we're both home on weekends. We do not go out much. We are home bodies and like it that way. I have a fully wooden fenced with chicken wire backyard and live in a quiet, dog friendly neighborhood with very little traffic. If your pup needs a crate, that’s totally fine we can manage that otherwise, they’re welcome to roam free and make themselves at home. We only have one resident dog, a sweet little Chihuahua whose favorite activity is sunbathing and napping.
“Roberta and Travis were great to work with. Fast communication and our NOAA was happy and exhausted at pick up! She played with their pup Marshall and came home a very content pup! We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Levi has become so familiar with Suzanne and her family that the last time we arrived for a stay he got so excited when he realized where he was. He ran into Suzanne's house and greeted everyone so happily. He was so happy to visit again. After saying "hello" to everyone he ran to the back door to go outside and play in Suzanne's wonderful yard. Another great stay for our pup!”
