About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have years of hands on experience caring for fur babies. I’ve cared for friends’ dogs over the years and have been a proud dog mom to my Shih-poo Buddy for almost 6 years since he was just 3 months old. When I first got Buddy, I completed dog training classes to better understand puppy behavior, routines, and positive reinforcement training. I provide a calm, safe, loving, and spacious environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away 🐾❤️ My full-time job is hybrid, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive pet care throughout the week. I’m fully available on weekends, and my weekday availability is mainly during my work from home days. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and a calm environment throughout their stay. As a dog mom myself I know how important it is to feel calm knowing your fur baby will be in good hands when you’re away. I have a fenced small yard and a small dog that can keep your dog company. We have a spare room in our home that can be fully used for your pet, private cage-free heaven! It’s only my husband and I so the house is calm, spacious and quiet. I will treat your fur baby like my own 🐾🤍

“Ann and her family were extremely warm and welcoming to my dog Simba, and it was evident they treated him like their own. It was my first time leaving him for an extended period of time, and Ann kindly assuaged my worries by updating me every day with photos. I cannot thank them enough for their attention and care.”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the beginning, it was clear how caring, responsible, and genuinely passionate they are about animals. Our Powder was not only well taken care of, but truly loved while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind. Powder was happy, and clearly in love with Garrett when we returned — the best sign of excellent care. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with both your pet. We would recommend this pet sitter without hesitation to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and professional care. We will absolutely be booking again!”
“This was the first time I’ve boarded my senior dog and I was nervous at first, but Leah took great care of Ddoongie. She kept me updated with pictures and short videos. I highly recommend her services.”

“Larissa took good care of Supa and sent frequent updates. She even dropped off an item that was left behind to our apartment. I could tell her family was very caring of Supa :)”
“Evegeniia is a great dog sitter! She came to our meet and greet with plenty of questions and was genuinely interested in Willow’s needs and how to care for her. We got plenty of videos, photos and text updates and it was clear that Willow was thriving while we were away. I definitely recommend Evegeniia to take care of your dog.”

Linda had a wonderful time with Maria while I was away for several days. Maria took care of my dog as if she were her own, giving her lots of love, attention, and affection. Linda is a very high-energy and demanding dog, but Maria understood her needs perfectly and made sure she was happy and well cared for at all times. Every day, she took Linda for walks and brought her to the park to play fetch, which is absolutely Linda's favorite activity. I felt completely at ease knowing Linda was in such good hands. I would definitely book with Maria again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such great care of her!
This was the first time our pup Cece ever stayed with another family, and I was anxious about how she would do but Nadia did a great job! Cece doesn’t always like other people but she took to Nadia right away. And Nadia sent multiple pictures/video every day, which was great. Will likely book with her again for future trips.
I cannot say enough good things about Bobbi and Aaron. Aaron - play expert, proactive strong man - carried my extra large crate by himself into the house and also back out to me before I even asked. Bobbi - incredibly caring, kind, patient, and funny - treats every moment with laughter and joy. Was happy for me to schedule numerous greetings and shorter visits since Bailey is more of a slow burn/warm up kind of gal. She was also so great at proactively sending me updates, especially during the first couple days with numerous reassuring pictures and notes! With each picture I could see Bailey getting happier and more comfortable - I was worried she wouldn't want to leave! Together, they're an absolute pleasure to talk to and work with. They are truly dog people - will absolutely take the time to understand and get to know your dog. They have an amazing backyard and lovely neighborhood for walks. I have a bunch of things I was asking them to follow and games that they could play with Bailey and they did all of it. They took great care of Bailey and I can tell she had a blast. Bailey and I will definitely be seeing them again!!
Amazing sitter! She kept us updated with photos and videos, and was already waiting outside for us with our puppy and everything all packed and cleaned when we arrived which made for a smooth and efficient pickup. So thoughtful and nice. I would definitely book again!
Amelia is the perfect dog sitter! Very professional, organized, and communicative and also incredibly warm and clearly experienced with dogs. Her space was also such a great fit for our dog with a nice sized yard, and a lovely calm environment. Our dog was excited to see her and return to her house after the initial meet and greet, and clearly felt comfortable there and had a great time. She was very communicative and was happy to accommodate our dog’s unique needs. Very happy to have found her!
Carole and Terry were hands down the best! They were super communicative and so loving and welcoming to our dog. They managed all his crazy quirks with kindness and treated him like one of their family during his stay. We loved the "fan club" text thread with all the updates. Their personal touch and attentive care really put our minds at ease while we were away from home. We will be repeat clients!
Natasha is our go-to sitter and Tutu absolutely loves her! Every time Tutu stays with Natasha, she gets so excited — it’s like she’s going on vacation. Tutu is always happy and well cared for at Natasha’s place, and she comes home tired, relaxed, and content after every stay. Natasha is also an incredibly kind and caring person who is passionate about helping and rescuing dogs. We feel so lucky to have found her, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter.
Thank you Courtney and Mathias for taking such great care of Elvis during his stay with you and your family! We loved all the sweet photos and videos that you sent of Elvis playing with your adorable Golden, Maggie, and your kids giving him snuggles. We felt so happy knowing he was so loved! :)
I have a senior dog who is very shy and introverted, so finding the right caregivers is extremely important to me. Yoona and Minjae were incredibly approachable, caring, and attentive throughout the entire stay. They asked thoughtful questions about my dog's routine, personality, and needs, which immediately gave me confidence that he would be well cared for. I also received regular updates and photos, which helped put my mind at ease. Although my dog was anxious at first, it was clear that he quickly became comfortable with them and had a wonderful time. Their patience and kindness really made a difference. I highly recommend Yoona and Minjae to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet sitters, and I will definitely be booking with them again in the future.
