Bailey is a caring, knowledgeable and experienced pet owner and caretaker. Freddy was well-cared for and I was sent several photos during the day to let me know how he was doing. Bailey was sensitive in incorporating Freddy into her pack of two dogs. I felt very comfortable and confident that Freddy was well cared for. Thank you!

Penny had an excellent time with Rob and I will definitely book him again!! He sent me updates and pictures the whole time I was gone, which I appreciated. I wasn’t worried at all because she was left in amazing hands and I had the chance to meet with Rob before sending her over. 10/10 experience.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends & family for years. This includes different shapes and sizes. I am a dog mom myself and overall pet lover. I have a flexible full time nursing job that allows me to work 3 times a week. I am looking to fill my free time with more pet care. I am reliable, detailed-oriented, calm and confident in my abilities to provide the best quality of care for your fur baby. I have a walking schedule with my dog at home. We currently do not have a fence but the dogs are always leashed even if just soaking up sun in the backyard. My dog does not get crated but I do have a medium sized crate and can be used if needed. We enjoy taking 3 walks a day and this includes being leashed at all times. My dog is friendly with neighbor dogs and we stop by when we see them if time allows. If my dog runs into an unfriendly dog, we remove ourselves from the situation immediately.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of hiring Emily to take care of Mel, my beloved dog, while I was away. From the initial meet-and-greet to the daily updates during my trip, I was thoroughly impressed with the level of care and attention provided. Emily took the time to understand Mel's routine, preferences, and any quirks that might need special attention. It was evident that they genuinely love dogs and have a strong understanding of their needs. Every day, I received updates and photos that put my mind at ease, showcasing how happy and comfortable my pup was in their care. Not only did Emily provide regular meals and exercise, but they also engaged in fun activities and even took Mel on walks to the river walk. I could tell that my dog was getting plenty of love and attention, which is so important when you're away from home. Upon my return, Mel seemed relaxed and happy, which reassured me that I made the right choice by entrusting Emily with their care. I highly recommend Emily to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. They exceeded my expectations and truly treated Mel as if they were their own. I will definitely be reaching out for future sitting needs! Thank you, Emily, for your outstanding service!

About: I started pet sitting as a teenager for neighbors and family friends. Since then, I have watched all types of dogs, including senior dogs. I became a dog owner for the first time in my mid-twenties. He was an elderly beagle mix with health issues. After he passed, I grieved until I was ready to own a dog again. Then I had ten wonderful years with Shadow, a husky mix who was a stray that made his way to a rescue. He bravely fought lymphoma for 1.5 years before succumbing to the disease. Through that time, I provided medication, took him for chemotherapy, and spoiled him until he decided it was time to cross the rainbow bridge. Shadow's absence still leaves a void in my heart that is filled by caring for other people's dogs. I love all types of dogs, and have experience with small to large, young and old, as well as dogs living with various health issues. Giving dog owners the security and piece of mind knowing their furry family members are safe and sound while they are away is a responsibility that I take very seriously. My husband and I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and our backyard is fully fenced. As a dog lover himself, anyone who books with me gets their pup double the love. My full time job is permanently remote, so I am able to be at home with your dog at all times. No matter their schedule, I can meet it because I can be here to fulfill their needs. I have a fenced in yard for safety, and a dog-friendly neighborhood where your dog will feel right at home. I know every dog has different needs, so I can follow the habits you have created with them to maintain consistency. Whether that is crate training or sleeping on the couch, I will follow your instructions. I know that dogs are family, and treat them as such.

Kyla is and was so amazing with my fur baby. For one, I was terrified because Eden has IVDD ( nerve condition that caused him to lose the functionality in his back legs) and I was like who is going to watch or even change a diaper on a dog. I have never seen anyone to attentive to my baby as if he were her baby. I’m so grateful to have found her and I will be a repeat client. Thank you again Kyla!!

Barbara is fantastic. She has watched my 8-year old Shih Tzu for a weekend and then 10 days. Both times Barbara was responsive, easy to communicate with, kept me updated, and was understanding when my flight was cancelled! My dog loved staying with Barbara. She has a nice yard, takes them for walks, and even has a wide variety of toys for the dogs to play with. My dog also lost an eye and takes eye medication. Barbara had no trouble giving him the medication and also made sure his face was clean (not easy with Shih Tzus but important)! She is my go to dog sitter and a pleasure to work with!!

Cheryl cared for our dog Chewie with so much kindness and genuine love it truly meant a lot to us. You can feel when someone has a natural connection with animals, and she absolutely does. From the beginning, she made us feel at ease, and that peace of mind is priceless when you’re away from your pet. We even needed to extend our stay by a night, and she was incredibly understanding and accommodating without hesitation. She also sent us frequent photos and videos, which made us feel so connected and reassured. Seeing Chewie happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for made all the difference. It’s not easy to trust someone with your dog, but Cheryl made it feel effortless. We’re deeply grateful for the love and attention she gave Chewie, and we wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again. Truly a beautiful experience. Highly recommend!

I recently had a 2½‑week vacation planned and was nervous about leaving my anxious dog, Teddy, for the first time. Angelina was incredibly accommodating and thoughtful from the very beginning. We arranged a couple of day visits and a few overnight stays ahead of my trip so Teddy could slowly adjust to her home and routine. Angelina was wonderfully attentive to Teddy’s needs, especially with feeding—he’s a picky eater, and she went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and eating well. By the third visit, Teddy was running happily to her door, tail wagging, and that’s when I knew I had found the perfect person to care for him. While I was away, she sent daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Teddy had a blast playing with the other dogs, and I can tell he truly misses them! I highly recommend Angelina to anyone looking for a caring, patient, and reliable sitter. She made a stressful situation feel easy, and Teddy absolutely adored her. 💙🐶💙
