Huei is amazing! Excellent communication, reliable and is very sweet. She was very attentive and patient with my puppy and i could tell he loved her and felt very comfortable with her! She sent me lots of cute pics and even videos which reassured me he was in good hands:) Will definitely continue to book with her!

About: Hi! I work from home and have flexibility to watch another dog from time to time. My pup is a golden retriever adopted last year, she is very friendly and knows how to give older dogs their space and has been exposed to younger puppies which she also does well with. I have a perfect backyard for fetching, sniffing and sunny 😎 naps. I have flexibility to watch your pup during weekdays and weekends. I have our dog to care for so it's easy to add another 1-3 to the mix :) I have a large fenced in yard, also live within walking distance to nearby off leash dog friendly parks and natural areas. I have many pet beds and can also provide a crate if needed.

I'm so glad we found Fabiola, she was a wonderful caretaker to our rabbits. She came over before our trip to make sure she understood what was necessary and was communicative throughout. She was very thorough, leaving their space very clean. She was also kind and we will definitely book her again!

About: I have lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I regularly walk my family’s dogs as well as my neighbors dogs. I have experience with puppies and taking care of my blind dog. I am home from college for the summer starting my own business and working part-time. I have a very open schedule and I am looking forward to being around animals this summer I would regularly walk and play with a dog, basically whatever the pet owners would like me to do. As far as it comes to cats if they are friendly and like to play with toys, that is something I would do otherwise I would just hang out to be around them.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of dogs for family and friends since I was younger. I have experience with many dog breeds and special experience with larger dogs. I am patient and kind and your dog will have a great time with me! I work from home half the week so I will have plenty of availability to hang out with your pup. I live near lots of parks and can bring your dog for walks. I don’t have any pets or children, so your dog will get my full attention! I am also in a pet friendly apartment building, so your dog will feel right at home.

Dawn has been taking care of my 12-week-old energetic and velociraptor GSP puppy, Zara, for the past two weeks. From the start, Dawn impressed me by taking the time to schedule a meet-up beforehand to get to know Zara and me. This thoughtful gesture made me feel confident in her abilities and reassured me that Zara was in great hands. Over the past two weeks, Dawn has been punctual and caring during her visits to my home. I highly recommend Dawn to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter.

About: We’ve fostered around 20 pups and volunteered at a senior center with our pup, bringing comfort and joy to others. These experiences shaped our calm, patient, and loving approach to every dog we care for, with 15+ repeat clients. We both work remotely from home, which means your dog will have constant supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. Dogs in care are never left alone for long periods and settle into a relaxed, home style, cozy routine. We focus on providing a calm, peaceful environment. Dogs are treated like family, enjoying neighborhood walks, playtime, naps, and quiet time. Only accepting calm, well mannered dogs who are comfortable sharing space and not prone to resource guarding, which helps maintain a safe and stress free home. The home is set up for comfort and calm, providing extra dog beds in multiple areas, cozy resting spots, and a variety of toys and enrichment items to keep dogs comfortable and engaged. Dogs are free to relax, play, nap, and move around at their own pace. Because we work remotely, pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine and, with always being home, allows for frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Plenty of grassy areas and walking paths near our residence, making outdoor time easy and enjoyable. The schedule is structured but flexible, adjusting to each dog’s energy level and normal routine. Available on weekdays and weekends, can accommodate extended stays, and aim to support last minute bookings when possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our home is clean, calm, and well supervised, and the dogs are never left unattended. We follow each pet’s routine closely and introduce dogs thoughtfully to maintain a peaceful environment. We take dogs out for frequent potty breaks and daily walks, always with safety in mind. Crate if requested, but most dogs relax freely indoors with cozy spaces to rest. To help you feel confident and connected, we provide daily photo and video updates, and we're always happy to send additional photos, videos, or text updates on demand. You’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. We also recommend a meet & greet prior to boarding to ensure we’re a great fit and that your dog feels comfortable in our home.

About: Animals have always been my passion, and I treat every pet like family. I offer reliable, attentive care tailored to your dog’s unique personality, whether they need high-energy outdoor exercise or just peaceful, comforting companionship at home. As a student, I easily balance pet care around my classes. I handle walks and feeding before morning lectures and return home during campus breaks for check-ins. At-home study blocks double as companionship time, while evenings and study breaks are reserved for longer walks and active play. I am fully dedicated to in-home care at this time and do not host pets at my own residence. If something changes I'll update this info. Thanks

About: I have five years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, whom I adopted at just 2 months old and raised into a happy, healthy pup who is now almost 5. Through this journey, I gained experience with puppy training, housebreaking, exercise, nutrition, and lots of love. Right now, my dog is living back in my home country with my parents, and I truly miss her every day. I signed up to care for pets because I love dogs deeply and want to share that same love and attention with others’ furry family members. I will care for your pets with the same dedication and affection that I give my own. As a full-time elementary school teacher, I have consistent availability during the week from 5:00pm to 9:00pm, making me well-suited for evening walks, feedings, and drop-in visits. On weekends, I have greater flexibility and can dedicate extended time to pet care, including longer walks, playtime, and overnight stays if needed. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I follow their established routines carefully—whether that’s feeding, walking or playtime to ensure dogs feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to home safety, making sure doors, gates, and leashes are properly secured at all times. I also focus on building trust with each pet through patience, consistency, and gentle care, so they feel safe and loved while their family is away.

About: I’ve taken care of family and friend’s furry friends since a very young age- including dogs of all types. From newborn puppies, to energetic young dogs, and elderly sick pups, I have a wide range of experience in the different care that’s needed. I also have experience as a vet assistant at pets in need, where I learned the importance of hygiene, attention to detail, and the bond between us and our furry friends. Lastly, I’ve had all kinds of pets since I was young! I have two dogs of my own, one of which has special needs, so I truly understand the importance in finding someone trustworthy and capable. I’m looking forward to meeting everyone! I’m recently unemployed due to my chronic illness, and am a full time college student. So im open to work everyday! Some days in the mornings, and some days on afternoons. I’m looking forward making money in something that I love and that is flexible. I have a fenced yard outside for playtime, as well as a gate inside my house to keep my dogs secure and safe. I have lots of toys and space in my house!

Genesis was great from the start kind, reliable, and easy to communicate with. My cat is usually very shy and keeps to himself with new people, so I was honestly surprised (in the best way) when he came out and greeted her right away and seemed completely comfortable. That really stood out to me. She was responsible, dependable, and communicative throughout, and everything went smoothly. I would absolutely book Genesis again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.

Vanessa & Jeff are absolutely amazing! I was nervous leaving my pup alone for the first time but both of them are warm and friendly which put me at ease. Easy communication with them and they always sent photos and detailed updates which i appreciated. Very flexible and accomodating which helps me out alot since i work long hours. They were super patient and gentle with Coco and even got him to eat his kibble which sometimes can be tricky! Even if he made a mess, they made sure to keep his area clean. So thankful i found them..Coco loves their snuggles and was always left resting happily:) Will definitely be my trusted go-to's!
