Notes from pup parents
Trusted by people who know their dogs best
The best care is felt in the details: a settled dog, a useful update, and a routine that stays intact.
“I came home to a relaxed dog and a tidy house. The photo updates made it easy to enjoy my trip without wondering how Milo was doing.”
Overnight stay
“Our puppy needs patience and structure, and every detail we shared was followed. Poppy was happy, settled, and ready for a nap after each visit.”
Puppy care
“Our senior dog’s slower pace was understood right away. The updates were thoughtful and reassuring without ever feeling excessive.”

Questions before the tail wags begin?
From meet-and-greets to daily updates, here are the details owners ask about most.
How do I request a booking?+
Complete the booking form with your dates, service, neighborhood, and dog’s details. We’ll review your request, confirm availability, and explain the next steps. Submitting the form does not confirm a booking.
Can I meet my sitter first?+
Yes. For first-time care, a meet-and-greet lets you review the routine, discuss home access, and see how your dog responds to the sitter before care begins.
Who will care for my dog?+
Playful Pups currently has one dedicated sitter with two years of solid pet-sitting experience. A meet-and-greet gives you and your dog time to get comfortable before care begins.
Will I receive updates?+
Yes. Your sitter sends useful care notes and photos according to the communication plan you agree on before the booking.
Will you follow my dog’s normal routine?+
That’s our starting point. Share feeding times, walk habits, cues, house rules, favorite activities, and anything that helps your dog feel settled.
