“He had such fun!”
“Daniela was great with my pup! She asked great questions that made me feel confident that he would be safe and comfortable with her. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Elaine is wonderful. My dog loves going to her home for day care. He comes home and is completely exhausted in the best way possible. Last time he was there, I picked him up at 5pm and he was ready for bed at 6pm and didn’t wanna run or do much of anything but sleep till noon the next day. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!”
About: Hello there, Let me talk a little bit about myself, since I was a kid, I grew up with so many kinds of animals, horses, chickens, ducks, birds, and about 8 dogs. But there was always this connection between me and the puppies. so, time went by so quick, and I got older and i decided to get me the most beautiful Husky. I never thought this boy would teach me so many things. I had some struggles training him, but I accomplished something that I thought it was impossible to do with huskies. now that he is getting a little older, I decided to get him a sister but this time I went with a German shepherd. every time I get around new people, they always ask me if I'm a dog trainer because the way my 2 babies are well behaved. So as all of you can see or image, I have many years of experience, I have been around dogs my whole life, I just love them if I could give my live to safe one. Thank you I work from home between 4AM-11AM so after that I free every day. or sometimes I don't even work and have plenty of free time to play with puppies. I make sure there's always that morning walk, make sure they eat and do their business outside, but specially I make sure they feel the love from the human so they can feel safe.
“Tina & Jon were such wonderful hosts. Our puppy couldn't stop telling us how much fun she had running around in their big back fenced yard with their 2 fur babies. Tina & Jon took such great care of her. We highly recommend their services.”
About: Ive been a professional dog walker for 7 years in my neighborhood. Everywhere I go they ask where are the dogs?? Ive had many satisfied clients. I have slots for more dogs daily. Small dogs are my preference since I have in a small area for them to play in. Overnights are fine too. I have a main play room in my space for smaller dogs. Large dogs may need an overnight pen to rest in overnight for dogs over 30 pounds.
“Yenis was the best!! She sent very cute pictures of Frankie throughout the day and I could tell he felt happy and comfortable. He is so excited to go back soon”
“Erica was a great host, and I would highly recommended her. When I made my booking I told Erica I would have to pick jalapeño up every day at 4:30. I ended up running very late each day, and Erica was very accommodating. Jalapeño seemed to have a great time and already knew how to find her way up to ericas apartment with excitement.”
“Lindsay was amazing! She had exceptional communication, was flexible, and her space was great for the Wren to run around! Would highly recommend and Wren would too!”
“Momo had a great day with Erika. She had a nice walk and got to play in the yard with kids. It was all so exciting she came home tired and happy. Erika was so nice, and sent pictures and videos. Its a warm and welcoming household.”
About: Hi! I have over 20 yrs experience caring for cats and dogs. I pride myself on my reliability, integrity, compassion and good judgment. I am comfortable working with cats and dogs of different ages and breeds. I will also watch special needs pets, if I feel it is within my skill set to do so. Dogs: I have significant dog sitting experience in addition to having had two of my own - one of whom needed a great deal of training, trust and confidence building when adopted. I am comfortable doing light training and providing enrichment activities. Cats: I also have significant cat experience, such as cat sitting, day visits, fostering and TNR. I’ve had two cats of my own, both adopted as kittens. I am attuned to the different enrichment needs cats have, and I work to ensure they are stimulated and happy. I am currently enrolled in an online masters program, work remotely from home and have a flexible personal schedule. This allows me to work with you on your pet care needs. Please check my calendar for my updated availability. If you are not sure of your dates or are seeking a long term relationship, please reach out to me to discuss your needs. *Note that my ability to board pets is limited and dependent on my resident cat’s reaction to your pet. A meet and greet is often required before booking.* I ensure my house is proactively set up to meet the needs of your pet and that the environment is safe for both my resident cat and the animals in my care. Boarded dogs will stay comfortably in the kitchen and on the first floor of the house with their bed, crate if applicable, food and toys to make them comfortable. Boarded cats can also be confined to the first floor or a nice room with a door, depending on your preference. Our resident cat is friendly, but boarding arrangements MUST be discussed ahead of time.
About: I’m a strong believer that structured, fun walks, socialisation and positive experiences are essential for a dog’s day to day well-being. I’m here to help you provide your dog with the exercise and positive interactions they need. I’ve been a dog owner for most of my life and have experience as a dog walker and sitter on and off. Throughout this time, I’ve learned that, like us, every dog is a different individual, and I’ll ensure to provide the appropriate mental and physical support for a well-balanced routine. I have recently completed successfully a Pet First Aid Course Certification. And I’m studying and practicing Canine Behaviour and Psychology. Most importantly, I’m passionate about our pets and there’s nothing more important for me that to make them feel safe and comfortable! I’m currently studying part time while also doing some volunteering locally, so I have most of my days and hours available to pick up - walk and drop-off your dog. If at your place/home, I’ll make sure that everything stays as it is and follow your dogs routine and care. Occasionally, at my apartment, I’ll make sure introducing the environment in the correct way for your and my dog. I have a small apartment where I live with my Yorkie, so I can host small to medium sized breeds overnight, or any sized if needed for a few hours break.

“Tina & Jon were such wonderful hosts. Our puppy couldn't stop telling us how much fun she had running around in their big back fenced yard with their 2 fur babies. Tina & Jon took such great care of her. We highly recommend their services.”
Holly M.Star Sitter
“If I could choose just one person to care for my dog, it would be Holly. She has a "magic touch" with every kind of dog. For one thing, I have watched her care so lovingly for her own rescue dog, Bruno, for more than 10 years. Bruno had many special needs when Holly found him and took him into her home. Her deep and abiding love, coupled with her consistent and unfailing care, transformed Bruno from a frightened little doggie into one of the happiest pets I've ever seen. Holly is a totally dependable person. She approaches every task she takes on, with professionalism and a commitment to excellence. When she says she will do something, she does it. She also has a kind, generous, and loving heart that quickly turns her into the best friend of any dog that's fortunate enough to meet her. I can think of no one more well-suited to care for dogs. Anyone who leaves their dog in Holly's care can rest assured that their dog will be treated wonderfully.”

Erica was great! She had my 2 dogs for day care and was very good about sending updates and pictures. My dogs were very tired at the end of the day, so I know they had a great time. I would definitely recommend Erica and will use her services in the future.
Melissa was very accommodating with our changing schedule and very loving with our doggy daughter. She sent us lots of pictures and helped me feel very comfortable during the whole time.
Piper had a wonderful day day staying with Erika and her family. Their backyard is a perfect oasis for pups of all sizes. Piper loved playing soccer and running after tennis balls, then taking a relaxing break indoors to recharge. We received plenty of pictures and videos to keep up with all of Piper's fun. Piper looks forward to staying with Erika again soon.
When I told our little dog that we were going to visiti Tina & Jon, she couldn't stop jumping for joy! We once took our dog to doggie daycare. They said, she just stayed with the "human" in the room. Playing with Tina & Jon's 2 little dogs has helped ours enjoy playing with other 4 legged animals with glee : )
Silka was so great with my dog! He is very anxious, but warmed up to her very quickly. She sent pictures and video updates and it looked like he had so much fun!
Prompt response. She even gave my dog food as today visit was more of an emergency for me and didn’t have any food. She took her out on walks. Will totally use her again. Thank you
Lindsay took great care of my pup. She took nice photos and then my dog seem really happy when I picked her up.
