“Donta took great care for Zoe. He gave her the exercise she needed and kept her happy and healthy. He has a great positive attitude even with dogs that are hyperactive / high energy. I recommend him to take care of your pup.”
“Amazing experience with Joann! Very reliable, communicative, and our dog clearly adored her. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
About: As a flight attendant, caring for others and staying calm under pressure comes naturally to me — and I bring that same level of attentiveness and reliability to pet care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member while you’re away. What sets me apart is the personalized care and attention I provide. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and entertained. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I adapt to their personality and routine. I’m also a proud dog parent myself, so I know the importance of updates, communication, and peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel happy and for you to feel completely at ease. As a flight attendant, my schedule gives me multiple full days off at a time, which allows me to dedicate focused, quality time to pet care without the typical 9–5 distractions. On my days off, your pet will receive plenty of attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. I keep my availability updated regularly and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, ensuring your pet receives safe, reliable, and attentive care. I also provide frequent updates, photos, and communication so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I care for every pet with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs and personality. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, medication routines, cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help reduce stress and keep them happy. I also pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and comfort to ensure they’re doing well at all times. My goal is to make your pet feel like they’re staying with someone they already know and trust.
“Teresa and her husband were especially attentive to our dog. They took care of her as she was their own. We are so appreciative to have someone so caring. Thank you being there when our dog needed you the most.”
“Reneé was great with Lily for a short overnight stay! She took lots of cute photos of her. She even squeezed in a quick walk before our pickup time. Lily will be back!”
“Beth was a superb dog boarding host for our sweet boy Mac! She was easy to reach, highly responsive and sent lots of updates on Mac’s fun times while we were away. 100% recommend!”
“We couldn't ask for a better dog sitter. He saved us when our other sitter had to cancel one day into our overseas trip. He made us feel assured he was the right person even though we couldn't meet him beforehand. Our dog Elliott is part husky and has husky tendencies and didn't get the training he needed during his formative years. Hamani was gentle, patient and did some training as well as walked and played with him a lot. We got a lot of updates which was great too. I would give him 10 stars if I could and highly recommend him to all pet parents out there!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Suraj! He took amazing care of my dog, Vito, while I was away. He sent me daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Vito was happy, well cared for, and comfortable. I truly felt at ease knowing my fur baby was in such good hands. I highly recommend Suraj to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter—and I’ll definitely be using him again!”
“Oscar took great care of Frankie and was an excellent and fast communicator from pre-booking through our entire stay. Will definitely yes Oscar whenever we go out of town. She was in such good hands and we loved the daily pics/videos”
“Teresa was amazing! She took great care of my little guy! I felt very comfortable and you can tell she loves the animals she sits for and treats them like her own pups! She sent me a bunch of pics while I was away which reassured me he was well taken care for! Would 100% book again!”
“Thank you Paula for taking care of Lily for a second weekend! It was nice to see Lily so excited to see you when we dropped her off the second time. It gave us confidence we left her in good hands.”
“Tiffany was fantastic! She send me at least one picture every day and she answered my questions fast. My Coco looked happy during her whole stayed. 100% would recommend.”
“Thank you Karen for taking such great care of Rufus. He seemed like he had a great vacation weekend with you and we really do appreciate it! We hope Rufus was able to entertain you as well! We would be happy to leave him with you again in the future, should the need arise.”
About: With more than 30 years of experience as both a veterinary technician and professional pet sitter, I provide knowledgeable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities. My background in veterinary medicine allows me to recognize health concerns, administer medications, and care for senior pets or those with special needs confidently and safely. Animals have always been a central part of my life. I currently share my home with my friendly doodle and my cat. Whether your pet needs daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, medication administration, or simply extra love and attention while you're away, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I'm currently working part time and have plenty of time to play with your pooch or kitty. Most days I am available before 8 am and by 2 in the afternoons. Your pet will enjoy a comfortable, safe, and welcoming home environment designed with animals in mind. I have a spacious home with plenty of room for pets to relax, play, and feel at ease. The furniture is pet-friendly, allowing well-mannered guests to feel like part of the family rather than confined to a separate space. Outside, pets have access to a large, fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore, exercise, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. The property also includes a pool, which is securely monitored and managed with your pet's safety as the top priority. Whether your dog loves to play, sunbathe, or simply lounge in the grass, there is ample space to accommodate their needs and activity level. I strive to provide a calm, home-like experience that maintains your pet's routine while offering plenty of attention, enrichment, and personalized care. My goal is for every guest to feel comfortable, secure, and treated as a valued member of the household throughout their stay. "To ensure individualized attention and a low-stress environment, I accept a limited number of boarding guests at one time."
“Tara did an amazing job watching our dog, Winston! From the moment she picked him up, we knew he was in good hands. Winston clearly felt loved and comfortable during his stay, and it was heartwarming to see how well he got along with her pup, Bosco. Tara kept us in the loop with adorable updates throughout the day, which really put our minds at ease. When she returned him, Winston was happy and well-cared for. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Tara for dog sitting.”
“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of our dog while we were away for a weekend. She was very attentive, sweet, responsive, and provided daily updates. We will definitely have her watch our dog in the future!”
“Dia was great with our pup, from the time we connected for a meet and greet we felt comfortable. Dia provided great communication and photos throughout our dog's stay. We certainly will entrust her with our fur baby again!”

Suraj and his family took excellent care of our senior Shih Tzus on two separate occasions. We received lots of photos and videos, which was nice to know they were being well cared for. Suraj was very accommodating on a short notice request and with regards to drop off and pick up times. Highly recommend!
While looking for care for my "special needs" pup, I found Laura and Manuel and couldn't be happier that I did! My dog felt almost immediately comfortable during our meet and greet, running around the yard and getting along well with their dogs. Laura was extremely patient with me while I explained my dogs medicine regimen and my concerns. During the stay, I was kept updated with texts and pics and best of all, my dog had a GREAT time! I feel totally comfortable that he is in good hands while hes there and will definitely be rebooking in the future.
Daniel and Terry took such wonderful care of our furbaby Archie while we were away. From the moment we met them, they made us feel comfortable and reassured that Archie would be in loving, capable hands. They were kind, communicative, attentive, and clearly genuine animal lovers. Archie came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. We really appreciated the updates, flexibility, and the warm environment they provided for him during his stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being treated like part of the family instead of “just a pet.” We would absolutely trust Daniel and Terry again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, dependable pet sitters. Thank you both for taking such great care of our sweet boy, Archie! 💗
Jane is extremely trustworthy and reliable. She's watched our dog a few times, but this time he unexpectedly had separation anxiety and a lot of GI issues. She told us exactly what was going on, took him to the vet, put us on speaker phone during the appointment, and communicated with us every time he took medication. I really can't speak highly enough about how well she handled what must have been a challenging week.
Andrew and his partner were absolutely amazing watching Layla on such short notice due to a last-minute work schedule conflict. From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in caring and compassionate hands. They kept me updated throughout her stay with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Layla was truly cared for like family, and it meant the world to me knowing she was safe, comfortable, and loved while I was gone. I’m incredibly thankful for their kindness, flexibility, and communication. I would highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets. Thank you both again for taking such wonderful care of Layla — we truly appreciate you!
Kara and Steven took great care with our aging beloved hound. They gave her many pets and massages and regularly sent photos and movies which definitely put our minds at ease. We so appreciated their experience with older dogs and their house was perfectly suited for our girl with not having to climb many stairs and a yard and trails area. Huge thanks to Kara and Steven who we whole-heartedly recommend.
Christopher has become my "go to" sitter for Sadie. She can be cautious when meeting new people but has gotten more comfortable with every visit. I am grateful she has found a second home where she can be happy when I am away. Christopher and Braden are great hosts, and Frank (their dog) is good company.
Amy and Ray were absolutely wonderful and truly saved our vacation! They stepped in last minute after another sitter canceled and took amazing care of our high-energy girl, Kora. They were attentive, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making her feel safe and comfortable. When a noise scared her, they even built her a little “fort” to help her settle down — which meant so much to us knowing she was being cared for with that level of kindness. We’re incredibly grateful they stepped in on short notice and treated Kora like their own. Highly recommend!
Dolly absolutely loved her stay with Katie and Travis! Our girl warmed up to them right away and I appreciate all the text updates I was being sent to ease my mind. Would absolutely love to use their services again in the future. Thanks for taking such good care of our baby.
