If I could leave 10 stars, I would! My dog Harper just had surgery and Jessica was so attentive to her needs. She was great at keeping her calm so her incisions would stay in tact, she was able to help feed her since Harper was stuck wearing a cone. I was confident having Jessica take care of her as she was recovering

Lupe is fantastic!! He is so good with our pup and we feel so grateful to have found him!! He is so friendly and welcoming. He goes above and beyond to make sure all of our dog’s needs are met. We had an emergency and he was super accommodating and made sure that our dog was in good hands. He has an awesome large yard that our dog loves to run in. Highly recommend!

Erika was very responsive and flexible. She took good care of Peppercorn and kept us updated by the app with detailed updates and tracking of his drinking/eating/toileting schedule. She was very flexible with allowing us to change hours / dates when our schedule changed. Would recommend Erika!

if I could give ten stars, I would. It is always a little hard to introduce your puppy to a new sitter but as soon as Brady met Stephanie and her family, I kind of laughed at myself for worrying for even one second. Stephanie was knowledgeable about doggies, has some of her own that Brady fell in love with, has a huge yard for them to run around and she was super communicative the whole time I was away. She was accommodating to the late return time too. I would absolutely recommend Stephanie and will be using her again!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs ever since I got Daisy, at just 3 months old. Raising and training her has given me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, basic training, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m also a middle school teacher, so patience, responsibility, communication, and creating a safe environment come naturally to me. With summer break here, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the care and attention they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like part of the family while you’re away! As a middle school teacher, I have a very flexible schedule during the summer some of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and pet sitting. I’m available, evenings, and weekends, before June 13, and I can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and reliable environment where pets can feel secure and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important routines, patience, and trust are, and I’ll make sure your dog receives plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic routines, and keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind.

About: I grew up with a childhood dog (a Yorkie mix) that I got when I was five years old. My dog became an angel last year at the age of fifteen. I unfortunately am not able to get another dog for the time being because I am starting law school in the fall. But, I miss the presence of a dog dearly, which is why I chose to become a sitter. I smile at and care for all animals, and I am excited to meet all of your fur babies! I currently work as a substitute teacher, so my schedule is very flexible. I also will be off relaxing all summer (trying to rest as much as possible before law school starts). I enjoy going on walks at the park and have a very active lifestyle, so I would love to bring your dog along! Although I do not have a fenced backyard, I have a 1.5 acre property with ample space. I will always ask what you are most comfortable with (leash in my backyard or not). I have dog bowls in my home I can use for food and drink. Dogs will always be under supervision in my home.

About: Growing up with a pets myself, I’ve always taken care of them. Whether it’s going out for long walks or running around the house, I have first hand experience with it. My schedule is very flexible as I can work from home and offer a very accommodating schedule to anyone that chooses to book their loving pet with me. I live in a townhouse with 3 floors, which means your dog or cat will have no problem running around the house freely as they want to. (It truly is a workout) I also live nearby a reservation with hiking trails and lots of outdoor space.

Isbath and her family welcomed my puppy Koltrane with open arms. I was grateful that they were able to accommodate me at the very last minute and provide daycare services for 4 days straight. They provided a safe backyard for play and potty breaks, and enrichment time. My puppy tried to run back into the yard the 1st day when I picked him, and was always excited to return and play. They were understanding of all Koltranes excitable energy which made me comfortable with bringing him back. Highly recommended.

Linna was very warm, welcoming, and attentive to my puppy’s needs. He is usually pretty nervous around new people but warmed up to Linna and her dog very quickly. Linna is very communicative and has a passion for dog care. Her backyard is fenced for lots of play time and space for the dog to get comfortable indoors too. She took some of the cutest pics of my little pooch. I would not hesitant to book here again!

I had an amazing experience with Stephanie! She was so patient and knowledgeable with my 3-month-old Cane Corso. You can tell she truly understands dogs and knows how to handle big breeds with care and confidence. My puppy learned so much in just a short time, and I feel more confident continuing the training at home. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great start with their pup! 🐾
