“I was very pleased with Sarah’s care of Brandy when she stayed with her this past weekend. Sarah was great about updating me and sending pictures. Her house is very dog friendly and there are lots of toys that her pup shares with guests. Brandy enjoyed her stay, and although she was happy to see me, was not showing any of the anxiety I sometimes see when we are separated for a while, so I know she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for in my absence. I would highly recommend Sarah as a sitter and plan to have her watch Brandy again soon!”
“Julie was so great with our dog Siena. Siena can be a bit anxious, and Julie was so caring and great with her and made her feel right at home. Great communicator, got lovely pictures and updates while we were away, we couldn’t be happier with Julie!”
“Amber was an awesome pet sitter, she had both girls for two weeks and took amazing care of them. She was super responsive, sent lots of pictures, and really loved on them which is all you can ask for.”
“Rylee took great care of my dog. He is an anxious boy and she sent me updates and pictures throughout my whole trip that really made me feel like he was being loved. Would highly recommend her and will be using her again!”
“Mallory and James cared for our dogs for a week. We could tell through the pictures they sent that our dogs had a great time. Our bigger dog enjoyed playing with the other dogs and our smaller dog received the special human attention she needs. They were also flexible with pick up and drop off.”
“Amy and Ryan are wonderful and so accommodating. They're able to keep constant care of our little guy Gersh, and give us the confidence we want that he'll be okay when we need to be away. Our flight home was recently delayed and with our work schedules the following day it could've been an issue, but we thankfully didn't need to worry. They immediately let us know it wouldn't be a problem at all, and were so understandable and easy to coordinate with. We're happy to have found them, and so is Gersh! Thank you!”
About: I love all animals and have ample experience taking care of several different kinds and ages. I have taken care of fosters. I have taken care of newborns. My dog had a litter 5 puppies and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life! I will treat your pets like they are my own. I am reliable and trustworthy. I love seeing animals happy. I will take the best care of your pet! My schedule is very flexible at this time. I will only be working part time at my current job after coming off of maternity leave. I live in a cozy condo in a woodsy area of Auburn. I do not have a backyard, but I have a great neighborhood for walking around. There are many other dogs in my neighborhood. I have plenty of space in my condo for the comfort of my cats and one additional pet to take care of. I have taken care of pets of all ages!
“This was the first time Mliss watched my nervous dog and he did great. Good communication with updates and pics each morning. I’ll definitely book with her again.”
“Keith took great care of our dogs. They probably got more exercise in 2 days then they get in a week with us. They were exhausted after spending time playing and going on walks with Keith and his family! Highly recommend using Keith whenever you can!!”
“Virginia was amazing! She took such great care of our dog, Bella! She sent daily texts and pictures. Would definitely recommend her and rebooked! Thanks again for taking such great care of our girl!”
“Sandra was amazing! She hosted our 2 whippets for 2 weeks while we were traveling abroad and she dealt with a variety of issues as they came up in a caring, thoughtful and communicative manner. She was so caring and kind that we didn’t worry at all as we knew she would always reach out if there were something we should be aware of. Sandra is great!”
“Dobbs is family to me, so finding someone I trust isn't easy. Melissa exceeded every expectation. From the moment I dropped him off until I picked him up, she kept me updated with photos and messages that showed him happy, comfortable, and having a wonderful time. Seeing him playing, relaxing, and making new friends made it clear he wasn't just being watched—he was being cared for and loved. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed me to enjoy my trip without worrying. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Melissa, for treating my boy like one of your own. We'll definitely be back.”
“Laurie took great care of our puppy on short notice for a weekend away. She provided many updates during the weekend and we still felt close to our pup! Nala came home very happy. I recommend Laurie with high regard to anyone looking for pet care!”
“Ana was a great host for Ingrid. She played with Ana’s dog Lola and had a great time on her morning walks and car rides. The stay was amazing and we will love to keep Ingrid with Ana in the future as well.”
“Rocky had a great time staying with Sarah and Luis! He was well cared for and had plenty of fresh air, walks and play time. I received pictures and notes throughout Rocky’s stay. I would highly recommend them if you want the best care for your furry family member!! 5 star experience all around!🐕⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Andre and his family are such wonderful and kind people. They were very welcoming when we brought our boys over for their introduction before booking for the weekend stay. The updates throughout the weekend via text were a delight to see. As much as we missed the boys we felt so easy to know they truly were in great hands with Andre and family. We will definitely book again.
This was Milo’s first stay with Dawn. My regular dog sitter was away so I reached out to find a back-up. Dawn was very responsive and was able to schedule a meet-and-greet within a few days, which went well. Their home has a fantastic backyard that’s perfect for running and playing, and Milo got plenty of outdoor time and activity during his stay. Milo is an anxious dog, so being in a new environment was definitely a little challenging for him. Dawn, Kevin, and the kids were incredibly patient and gave him lots of TLC. They even went the extra mile and put down blankets and rugs when Milo was hesitant to walk on the wood floors! It was clear that they genuinely cared about making Milo feel comfortable and safe. I really appreciated the patience and kindness they showed him, and I would definitely have Milo stay with them again in the future!
Tamara did a fantastic job watching our dog Max. He was well cared for and we could tell he really enjoyed his stay. Tamara is always caring and responsive, and was able to accommodate our drop off and pick up times so. We highly recommend Tamara and Jerimiah, and will certainly be using them again.
Alexis took such wonderful care of our Goldendoodle, Walden, and treated him like one of her own. Walden and Brewer became fast friends. It was clear he was happy and well cared for while we were away. We would absolutely trust Alexis with Walden again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pup.
It was so nice to be able to go on vacation without worrying about Tootsie for the first time! I mean not a single worry! Makes for a much better vacation! Leslie was so nice and patient! It took Tootsie a day to settle in and once she was I know tootsie was very comfortable. She sent daily pictures and updates which gave me further assurance. You just don’t get that from a boarding place even though they promise that. Tootsie is a rather “needy” dog but like a 2nd child. I could tell she was well taken care of. I would not hesitate to call Leslie again and if you are reading this review, rest assured your dog will be in great hands! Thanks Leslie!!
Lauren was a lifesaver for taking our last-minute booking. She took great care of Champ and sent regular photo updates. A huge thanks to Gavin for helping with the heavy crate, too, he moved it to and from the car on his own without us even asking. Champ came home happy, well-fed, and on his regular routine. Highly recommend them if you need a reliable team! We will definitely be booking with her again.

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
