About: With over 10 years of dedicated dog care experience, we offer compassionate attention and reliable care tailored to your furry friend's needs. From daily walks to playtime and grooming, your dog will receive the utmost love and attention, ensuring their comfort and happiness while you're away. Travis works from home which allows us to offer constant companionship and supervision. Roberta is a teacher nearby, providing the ability to come home early for extra cuddles. We have a friendly 9 year-old German shepherd mix named Marshall that we adopted from a rescue at 8 weeks old so we have the ability and patience to host puppies. Marshall is our first family dog, Roberta grew up with multiple dogs caring for them from pups through seniors. Additionally, our 4 year-old daughter has enough energy to provide tons of additional fetch and chase time. We are also able to (and love) having pups with special needs. Marshall's best friend is blind and we have cared for him on many occasions. We can also administer medications and prepare specialized meals when needed. We have a large backyard that allows for plenty of jaunts and potty breaks. As well as plenty of space in the house for quiet time and naps. Your pup will have full access to make themselves comfortable in their home away from home. Travis works from home allowing for full time care. Roberta is a teacher nearby and is home early to allow for additional time and attention. We are able to fit your pup into our daily feeding, potty, play schedule or can adjust to meet their needs. In our home, your pets are treated like family. They'll enjoy a cozy environment with plenty of playtime in our large yard or indoors if it's too hot/cold. They'll have plenty of play time with our pup Marshall if they like or space to chill if that's what they prefer. Your pet will have access to our home to nap and play wherever they feel comfortable, and we also have the space to crate if, that's your preference.

She has plenty of yard space for dogs to run and play, and she gives them so much love and attention. It’s clear that she truly cares for the dogs she watches, and I always feel at ease knowing my pup is safe and happy with her. Highly recommend Shirley for anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”

18. Luis M.
About: Love both dogs and cats. I do not have “professional” experience, but have owned dogs my entire life. My last dog passed away 2 years ago from cancer and I miss having a furry friend, so would enjoy taking care of yours. My entire family loves animals, so your pet will be well loved and cared for. I do have children, so the dogs or cats I would be able to board will have to be child friendly pets. I have experience with large dogs, pit bulls, mastiffs and small dogs, Pomeranians. I also understand the anxiety pets go through when separated from their owners, so I will make sure to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. Basically care for your dog as I would want my dog cared for.
19. Jacqueline D.
“Jacqueline was so accommodating! I had to switch the time last minute to an hour earlier for my fluffy guy to get walked and she made it happen! She was punctual and so positive when she arrived! She sent pictures throughout the walk! Jacqueline is wonderful and so caring with my fluffy pup!”
20. Emma S.
“Emma did great with our pup Finn! He’s usually a bit shy at first and Emma was very good at understanding his boundaries. Punctual and great communication. We will definitely work with her again in the future!”
