“Elisa cared for 2 dogs and multiple cats in my home. It was wonderful knowing all the pets were being cared for and loved while I was away! I had plenty of updates and all my cats/dogs seemed so relaxed when I arrived back home.”
“Brandon was a great house and dog sitter for the weekend. He was respectful and reliable. Communication was open and he was always quick to reply. Our dog can be male reactive as well but Brandon took his time and had patience when getting to know him. Absolutely would recommend and will use for his service again.”
“Claire was a wonderful match for our 12 yr old boston terrier. She took the time to meet our pup prior to watching him and was thorough with her questions. Claire provided updates of our fur baby throughout the day and sent us pictures. Having that communication was greatly appreciated and made us feel more at ease that our pup was in good hands. We will absolutely book Claire again in the future!”
“Jacklyn was great with 9ur 10 month old, high energy puppy. He loved spending time with her and going on walks too. He looks forward to seeing her again.”

“Best dog sitter we have had to date. Christina was amazing from the get go. Kept us up to date and made sure our 3 dogs were well loved and taken care of while we were on vacation. Would recommend her to any and everyone!”
“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”
“Nyska was wonderful with Sophie and made my crazy schedule work on short notice. I appreciate her love for my fur baby”
“I give Ben an A++. I couldn’t have asked for a better new buddy and caregiver for my fur babies. Ben’s calm and welcoming presence is exactly what my dog needed while I was away. I feel so much better knowing they are just as cared for and loved as when I am home.”
“Lana was very loving to our old (almost 16 years old) deaf, blind shih poo. Sophie had a couple of medical issues which required Lana to administer 3 different medications. She handled it beautifully. We were very comfortable going out of town for several days, thanks to Lana”

“Sent pictures and cared for our sweet girl”
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life. I have the biggest and softest heart towards all kinds and sizes of dogs! I’ve dog sat for multiple family members and friends. After taking a few vet classes and shadowing at some vet clinics, I’m fairly familiar with a dogs different behaviors and needs. I love every one like my own! I currently work an 8-4 every weekday. I’m available to care for pets in the evenings and during the weekends. I cannot get enough of being around them! So caring for dogs is the perfect way for me to make some money to help pay off student debt! I recently adopted my baby boy Max and we’re working on socializing. Bringing him along on walks and car rides would help tremendously with that.
“Shalah was great! She fed and played with my 10 month old dog and gave all his supplements and brushed his teeth. I would definitely use her again.”
About: I've cared for and trained dogs since I was 5 years old, from dogs small enough to fit in your purse to Great Danes! Feeding, bathing, walking, clipping nails, brushing, the whole nine yards. I work in the gig economy, so my schedule is mine to fit and mold to my whim with the exception of friend and family needs. If your pet is in my care, you can rest assured that they will be my top priority. I live in an inclusive community village with a friendly senior dog (and two cats from my roommate). There's many walkways to explore with zero risk of the road. If you want me to care for your pet in your home, I can entrust the care of my dog to my roommate and dedicate a majority of my time to watching over your lovely animal.
About: I tend to really engage with and try to care for the pets like they are my own. I don’t have special skills other than a true love for dogs and animals in general as well as owning my own fur baby! I coach cheerleading in the afternoon hours (usually from 3:30-6 or 8). I coach Monday through Thursday and on sundays from 3-5. I’m somewhat allergic to animal fur, but it doesn’t bother me because I don’t really pay attention to it! I treat all animals with love, care, and respect as I feel they all deserve. I live by a park so I have an area to take them to where they can get some good exercise in! I was in the military and currently also personal trainer but that schedule should not conflict with this one. I would work best for those needing mornings, nights, or overall house sitting done as my schedule between personal training and coaching cheerleading tend to happen more in the afternoon times. I have a fenced yard with ring cameras. I walk and play with my own fur baby daily, as well as take care of my brother’s fur baby as he is gone in the military.
About: I have over 25 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats. As a prior vet tech, I have bottle fed newborns and cared for senior pets and everything in between. I now work on the human side of medicine but spend my extra time making your fur babies feel part of the family. My wife and I tag team to offer the best quality and expertise care to your pets. I tag team with my amazing wife who is able to offer doggie day care, drop ins and dog walking during the day and I am available for evening and weekend drop ins, dog walks and house sitting. We are available to pickup your pets as well. I have a fenced in back yard with three dogs and a dog friendly cat to keep your pet company. We were very picky on who we let take care of our pets and into our home and will treat your pets with the same care, responsibility and respect we expect from our dog sitters when we take a long weekend.

16. Meriya A.
“Meriya has a way with dogs unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. My dog is a notorious people-hater…he barks his head off at anyone who comes near him unless they live in our house. He’s a ferocious guard dog. And yet, after just a few visits, he was eating out of her hand like she was his best friend. Meriya loves dogs more than just about anything. She cares for them and loves on them like a mother tends to her children. When she got a puppy last November, a toy maltipoo named Max, she was completely in love from the moment she saw him. All the way home, she was cuddling him and getting him used to her…in the months since, she’s trained him and raised him as well as a puppy could ever ask for. Any dog that gets to go on a walk with Meriya is in for a treat! She’s the best a dog could ever ask for.”
17. Shalah D.
“Shalah was great! She fed and played with my 10 month old dog and gave all his supplements and brushed his teeth. I would definitely use her again.”
18. Trenton S.
“He's very good with animals, very in tune with their emotions and needs. Highly recommended, cared for my four bulldogs for five days without complaints.”
19. DeArko M.
“DE’ARKO is a very dependable, fun loving, energetic guy who loves animals. I think he would do amazing at any job that involves taking care of animals in away.”
20. Adam T.
“Adam is a born animal lover and caregiver, embodying the perfect blend of reliability, trustworthiness, and compassion. As a fellow dog dad, he's consistently demonstrated exceptional care and dedication to his own pets. I've had the pleasure of entrusting him with my little Shih Tzu pup on multiple occasions, and each experience has been stellar. Adam's care and attention provide me with complete peace of mind, knowing my furry friend is in capable and loving hands.”
