“Corey and Hesong took great attentive care of Suki! He seemed to have a blast playing with their dogs and got plenty of sunshine at the park with them.”


“Erix was so helpful in allowing a last minute stay for our dog. Our dog can be energetic and Erix was confident in his abilities to care for him, which was so appreciated. We'd certainly trust Erix services in the future! Thank you again, Erix!”


“Susan was great! We did a meet and greet beforehand that made me feel very comfortable having our dog stay with her and her dog. We got updates and pictures and our dog seemed right at home. Will be using again!”

“Georgianne was a great sitter and our puppy had a fantastic time with her. She has a big yard and a friendly dog perfect for playing. We would definitely hire her to watch our dog again!”


“Yakelin was a very good sitter and her communication was excellent. My dog had a great time staying with her.”


“Responds promptly to messages. She seemed caring. Sent pictures when asked. My dog looked happy and was calm when I picked her up.”


“She went above and beyond to care for my baby. I will never use another sitter again unless she is unavailable! I cannot recommend her enough! She treated her like family, kept me updated constantly, and had such a genuinely positive attitude the entire time. I have absolutely nothing negative to add and no wishes that she did anything differently! I have never met anyone I could trust my baby Marshmallow with more!”


“Maypud was amazing and the girls loved her! She picked them up and dropped them off home. They were fed and walked before returning and were ready for a nap! I would definitely use her service again”


“Lisa and Jon took care of my dog for a full week and they were excellent. Great communication, and regular updates with pictures, and our dogs seemed to get along great. We had no issues and I’ll definitely be coming back to Lisa and Jon the next time I have to leave town :)”


“Samantha was great with my geriatric dog. She was patient with feeding, administered all meds, and gave Annika lots of cuddles and love. It's reassuring to know that I can travel and my dog will receive the level of care she requires. Thanks, Samantha!”

“Eden went above and beyond when she took on a last-minute request to care for our sausage dog, who's known for her larger-than-life vocal personality. Her passion for animals was evident in every aspect of her care. Throughout the day, Eden kept us updated with adorable pictures of our dog, which reassured us that she was in good hands. What truly impressed us was the thoughtful extras: Eden provided a detailed report card on our dog's behavior and even sent us home with a sweet goodie bag. Having someone as trustworthy and passionate as Eden to care for our furry friend was a true blessing. We are grateful for her dedication and will definitely be relying on her again in the future. Highly recommended!”


“Joan and Duncan were great. They have a lovely home on a quiet street, were very responsive and thoughtful. Oakey enjoyed his time there and I felt comfortable with them taking care of him.”


“Being our first board with our puppy we were very apprehensive. We got numerous photos from Jocelyn a day. Many including her family. Really put us at ease. Definitely would bring her back.”


“Deborah was wonderful with our dog and he appeared happy while he was with her and when we brought him home. We highly recommend Deboarah and we will definitely have her watch our dog in the future.”


“I had a surprise hospital stay and needed to find a safe place for Minnie for a week. Leah and her family were so cooperative, sent pictures every day along with some delightful comments. And she was so good to accommodate an early drop off and a few extra days. Such a nice home. Minnie went right to Leah which doesn't happen often so I knew she was in the right place. Will definitely use Leah again...it was a relief not to worry about my Zen pup.”


About: Hi there! I’ve taken care of my own pup for 4 years and others’ dogs for well over 8! I like to say I give off “dog energy” and pups gravitate towards me (and my husband!). I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs and cats, following their specific needs for food, water, exercise, enrichment, and rest. In my home, pets are just as important as people so they are welcomed and encouraged to curl up on the couch with us, if they’re comfortable doing so. While I don’t have specific training skills, I am happy to incorporate any current training regimens you’ve introduced to your dog to continue on their path to success. Small treats are given in our home for “good potty,” so unless otherwise specified, I’d love to follow suit with your pup! Please provide any special treats you may wish me to give your pet. Otherwise, I am happy to provide Bocce’s Bakery treats to all of my furry friends! Puppies, adult, and senior dogs alike are welcome in our home. I am self-employed and work from home so I have ample time to snuggle with and care for your fur baby. My dog goes out to potty once every 2-4 hours depending on her mood so any pup we welcome into our home typically follows the same schedule. Neighborhood walks are always on the table as long as it’s not too hot or too cold for their safety. I have an unfenced yard and no dogs are left unattended or off-leash. Leashing and dog safety are my priorities. Our private yard offers respite for reactive pups to focus while they do their business. We have plenty of space in our home to separate dogs for meals, treats, or moments of rest. Our dog, Tofu, is a Velcro dog and always by my side. She’s a bit of an anxious girlie but loves to play and snuggle up with friends (dogs and humans alike) once she gets comfortable. All introductions to Tofu will be done slowly and with both dogs’ safety in mind!
