“Jeremy watched our Bear dog for a couple nights and took great care of him. They played, took walks and he even kept Bear happy and busy during a rainy day. Jeremy sent us pictures and videos and was great with communication. He seemed to genuinely care for our pup and our pup was happy hanging out with him. We would definitely book Jeremy again!!”
“Shelly was great with Kona! She sent pictures and Kona was very happy to snuggle with the family on the couch and play with her son! Very responsive and reliable. Happy to have found Shelly and will use again!”
About: With a passion for dogs that runs deep, I have hands-on experience training my Belgian Malinois, Eddie, for IGP and my Doberman, Moses, for basic house manners and obedience. Our adventures often lead us to hiking trails, where we bond, have fun, and enjoy the great outdoors together. My love for dogs has been a constant throughout my life, shaping my experiences and creating cherished memories with many dogs. As a dog sitter, my deep love for dogs has always been a significant part of my life. I enjoy dog sitting from my home because I work from home with a highly flexible job, enabling me to monitor the dog closely and provide constant care and attention. While dog sitting, I prioritize personalized care for each pet. With a fenced yard, dogs can enjoy outdoor play while being monitored by me or lounge inside, whether they prefer energetic activities or simply lounging on the couch. During dog sitting, I ensure clients stay updated with regular picture, video and text updates, keeping them informed and reassured about their dogs well-being. Clients can reach me anytime via phone or text while their dogs are in my care, providing peace of mind and quick communication for any updates or concerns.
“Maya was amazing with Gojo! Sent updates everyday with photos, took him for walks, gave him all the attention he could ask for (if you know Gojo, that’s a lot of attention), and truly welcomed him into their home. Gojo was happy to see me on pickup but sad to go as well. Will definitely recommend Maya and will be bringing Gojo back in the future to play with Thor!”
“Amanda did such a great job with Cash! She was very informative and gave many updates throughout the trip. I would 100% book again! Your dog will be safe in her hands!”

About: I grew up with an a verity of animals. I love watching and learning their different personality and just studying there behavior. Like our Human children,they all have their special individual personalities that need nurtured. I love giving animal baby updates, I'm aware of how feels to be away for long periods. I have experience with reptiles as well. I have plenty of time;. I want to do something enjoyable , productive and help other pet parents to live full lives. while furr babies live theirs. I also happy update as often as wanted I have solar cameras in my back yard, for monitoring, as well as availability to separate should a dog need that. My house has cat trees and pet furniture. My human furniture is also pet friendly. We love our cuddles and we love our space to be comfy. There is a doggy door, large fenced back yard available to pets. They have access to it while i am home. When no one is home, they are either kenneled or just put in one of the bedrooms while we are away from the house which would not be very often

Would recommend and will definitely use them again!”

About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.
“Ruby was happy and well taken care of”
About: I grew up caring for dogs and decided to get my own as soon as I could! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I can give extra care and attention to your furry friend! I have a large house on multiple acres of land so there is plenty of space to play. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and can usually adjust my schedule to fit your needs. This also allows me to take frequent breaks for potty and play. My two small dogs are unleashed in our home, and they are friendly and love to play with other dogs! I do not have a crate, but if you bring one, would be happy to use it upon request.
