“Virginia is hands down the best dog sitter ever! My pup Kiwi absolutely adored her—he was more excited to see her in the morning than me in the afternoon! 🐶 She sent tons of pictures and videos throughout the day, which made me feel so at ease. Kiwi also became best friends with her sweet dog, Cozy, and it was the cutest thing watching them play together in the videos she sent. It was clear she treated Kiwi like her own, with so much love and care. I would 100% trust her again and will definitely be coming back to her. Highly recommend!😊”

About: Hi, I’m McKay—lifelong dog-lover, proud pup parent (George, Golden Retriever, 80 lbs), and now working from home full-time. With 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, I create a loving, structured, and fun-filled atmosphere in my apartment home.

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life—starting with my family’s sweet French Bulldog and now my own lovable (and energetic!) Weimaraner, Gluhwein, for the past four years. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from low-maintenance loungers to high-energy goofballs who need lots of play. At our house, we truly love dogs of all shapes and sizes, and your pup will be treated like part of the family—with plenty of attention, snuggles, and fun. Whether it’s a playdate or an overnight stay, your dog is in good hands here! I work from home, and my partner Nick is in and out throughout the day for work, so there’s always someone home to give your dog lots of attention, care, and company. Our Weimaraner, Gluhwein, is part of our daily routine—he gets lots of love, playtime, walks, and nap breaks—and your dog would be an amazing addition to that rhythm. Whether it’s for a playdate or a sleepover, we’ll make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and right at home. n our home, your dog will have plenty of space to play, relax, and feel right at home. We have a fully fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor fun, and we live just a block away from a park and a sidewalk trail—perfect for daily walks and sniff-filled adventures. Your pup will also have a built-in buddy: our friendly Weimaraner, who loves having a playmate (and nap mate!) around. We keep our home stocked with cozy spots, toys, and plenty of treats to make every dog feel comfortable, happy, and part of the family.

About: I accept same day bookings but there will be 2 dollar upcharge for my non-repeating customers the first time. I have a full time job currently I work 7am-3:45 so I usually wouldn't be able to walk or drop in unless your within 2 miles of my house. On the occasions that I can not make your animal at all times but you still would like to book my wife has all the same credentials as me and can stop in also. During the summer my walking price is a bit elevated than drop in due to living in Florida it's extremely hot and during the summer very rainy. I’m currently working 7-3:45p Monday through Friday in office, so on weekdays I’m only available after 430p. My weekends are usually pretty open from morning to evening. My wife currently has THURS AND FRIDAY and after noon weekends in my home we have gates to keep taller dogs out unnecessary areas, and also a lot of brain games to keep dogs interested. I love going on walks and short runs with my own dogs.

About: I've owned two dogs and a cat for the past 17 years. Unfortunately we're a pet free family at the moment so we're eager to fill the void while we take our time to find the right dog to add to our family. We do have a small child who will be at home some days and all nights/weekends, but she loves animals and plays very gently. Making sure you feel comfortable while you're away is something I strive for. I can guarantee a picture and status update at least daily so you can rest assured that your pet is in good hands and is living it up! Last thing to note is that I am active and plan on being active with your pet. If your dog likes/needs walks, I'll make sure they get out and about and have plenty of opportunity to burn off some energy. I work from home and have limited engagements during the day, so the majority of the time I'll be here hanging out with your pet. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run and play. I've got a young daughter who may also be around during the day, and will be around in the evenings and on the weekends. We live in a nice walkable neighborhood and I like to get out and walk, so I'll make sure your pet(s) have plenty of exercise and attention.

“Kerry is outstanding! Excellent communication while we were away for the day. It is clear from the pictures they thoroughly enjoyed themselves, too. I hope she doesn't get booked up too quickly because we will definitely be returning customers.”

McKay W.
“McKay has watched Cooper multiple times now and we will continue to hire her every time we go out of town! Cooper absolutely adores her and her dog, George. (Literal full blown excitement to the point where he will jump in her car trying to go home with her when she pulls up). He has so much fun, it’s his own vacation while we are on vacation and I can leave with peace of mind that McKay takes care of Cooper like he is her own! McKay does an amazing job of providing lots of photo and video updates so we can see his cute face while we are gone. HIGHLY recommend to anyone out there looking for a sitter that goes above and beyond.”
