“I can’t say enough about Gisel and her family that gave us a warm welcome the moment we connected. At our meet and greet, I knew she was the one to host our #furbaby Cody. Even her children were loving towards him. They are a wonderful family and far exceeded our expectations of caring for our Cody with pics and videos the whole seven days. Our neighbor uses her as well for their Yorkie and are very pleased with the care they’ve received. The bonus for us, she’s a stay at home mom and Cody was not left alone all day. She has small dogs as well and he was able to meet new friends. This was our first time leaving Cody without family and Gisel eased all of my anxiety because of her love for animals. We’ll be using her again soon.😊”


“Jacob and Megan took excellent care of our dog, Penny! Everyday they sent photos of her and gave us updates as to how she was doing. Jacob and Megan were easy to work with, both in terms of communication and flexibility. Penny came back happy! We hope to have the chance to book again with Jacob and Megan!”


“Katie was fantastic! She watched our dog over the weekend while we were away. We were happy to receive an update with a photo and know that our dog was happy and well-cared for. We'd definitely recommend Katie to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”


“Paris took great care of our 14 year old doggie - Rosco. She provided us with feedback and pictures every day. Rosco is a nervous/anxious dog. But, Rosco seemed relaxed in Paris' care and was happy when we picked him up. I will use Paris again when the need arises.”

About: I have been pet sitting for over 20 years and have experience with furry, feathery, and scaly creatures of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with puppies and kittens all the way up to senior pets, with and without special needs. I have experience with blind and deaf animals and can administer pet medications. We have a half acre that is fenced in and perfect for your pets to play. I’m a teacher, so during the summers, fall and spring break, and weekends I am home full time. During the school year, I am usually home by 3 p.m. Pets may use crates (collars off) or free-roam in the house depending upon what they are used to at home. I like to keep our rules consistent with what pets are used to at home. I allow our pets on furniture and beds.


“Ms. Pearl is a very kind and caring person, who took excellent care of my little dog. It was evident that she had genuine concern for his overall wellbeing. Chewie had so much fun, he didn't want to leave her. ;-) Chewie has had some health issues over the past three months, and we were very concerned about leaving him. Pearl kept us posted on his progress and he had no issues while in her care. She has a clean, safe and calm environment, which was perfect for my dog. We hope we can use her services again. Thank you, Ms. Pearl!”


“Elizabeth took good care of my dog while we were on vacation. We felt comfortable leaving her with Elizabeth after a meet and greet with her pups! I recommend Elizabeth for your pet needs.”


“I loved interacting with Kwame. He was kind, very communicative, VERY understanding, VERY reliable. I had to leave the country on short notice, looked into his profile, reached out to him and the setup was very smooth. He responded quickly and was all for keeping my baby for about a month. He kept me in the loop, asked any and all necessary questions about care details, sent me photos and videos. Once he knew everything, I was able to go throughout the busy days without checking in consistently. My baby seemed very happy with him & I can tell he was treated with much love. Keanu came home very happy. 💙”


“Addy always loves staying with Leia! She has so much fun with their dog and always comes home happy! Addy has stayed with her on multiple occasions and we will continue to book with her!”


“We were very happy with the care our dog received while we were on vacation. We got numerous pictures, and our dog seemed to be on vacation too! Thank you for taking good care of Kona!”
