“This was our first time using Maria for a drop in and she was fantastic! She has great communication, followed instructions perfectly and my dogs seemed to love her! We will definitely rebook with her!”
“Stephen did a great job! In all the pics he sent the dogs were happy! Our puppy was so tired from playing with Stephen the whole time, which is a difficult task since nothing wears out this puppy!! We will definitely use him again.”
“My first experience hiring Vu was fantastic! He did everything I asked at each check in and gave consistent updates. I run a business and get a lot of packages and he always brought them inside in addition to taking great care of my cats. I highly recommend & hope to re-hire! Thanks Vu.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since childhood, taking care of our two family dogs and two cats. I currently have two dogs and cats of my own. I also foster for a local rescue organization since 2022, welcoming over 30 dogs into our home. I currently have availability weekday afternoons and evenings for drop-in visits and walks, and weekend availability for overnight stays. Starting in June, I will have more flexibility for overnight stays and drop-ins/walks during the weekdays. I have experience working with many different breeds, sizes, and temperaments of dogs through fostering. I am comfortable and confident handling small, medium, and large dogs.
“Casey is always a great cat-sitter and we appreciate her so much! She is reliable, follows instructions, and takes great care of our kitties. She goes the extra mile to try to engage them, although they are transitioning to the more skittish-with-visitors and generally-aloof teenager/ adult cat mode now, so we know its a challenge to entice them these days!”
About: I’ve had experience with a yellow lab growing up and raising my Shiba Inu, Maverick. Many may say that I attract dogs and I will do anything to make sure they are living their best, healthy, fun life! As a teacher, I have the summer off so I am able to watch dogs, check in, and go on walks. I have the friendliest Shiba Inu, Maverick who is always looking for a new friend! I have a doggy-door and fenced in yard for your pet to play in if boarded! In your home, I will be sure to comfort your dog with their preferences.
“Jess, Has been amazing keeping an eye on our furry family members. She got along with them so quickly which eased our anxiety about them adjusting. Thank you for being an awesome person (she even stopping by when we lost power & then her back went out) AMAZING! 😊 & our furry friends say hello. Looking forward for to using your services in the future. Take care of yourself. Ttys.”
“Lauren eased all my worries about leaving my baby alone for a long weekend knowing he would be well checked in on. She was fabulous with communication and followed my not so simple (haha) automatic food timer directions to be sure he was fed properly the remaining days until I got home. Will definitely be reach out to her again in the future!”
