1. Kimberly M.


“We loved Kimberly and highly recommend her! She was amazing with my dog. He is an older dog with a few medical issues. I normally don’t like to ever leave him but Kimberly made me feel that he was safe and in good hands. She sent lots of pictures and videos each day. She was a pleasure to work with and we will definitely be using her again! Lisa”


2. Ethan K.

“Ethan was great! Called ahead of time to make sure it was a good fit. When he got here, our dog took to him right away. He was communicative and shared pictures with us afterward. We felt a lot better on our trip knowing our dog was in good hands!”


3. Lauren E.

“Lauren loved our babies (senior dog and 3 yr old cat), communicated well, and offered us much peace of mind during our weeklong time away. She was also flexible and supportive when our return flight was delayed. Thank you so much for your services, Lauren!!”

6. Jazmin M.


“I can’t say enough good things about Jazmin! We have never used Rover before or had someone watch our dog in our home so we were a bit nervous. Jazmin was amazing with Maisy. She sent lots of videos and pictures throughout our time away so we could see what they were up to. I can tell that Jazmin took great care of Maisy and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”


7. Rebecca W.
“Rebecca took care of my cat Valkyrie while we were away for a few days. She was great! Valkyrie got all her food and water and pets (she loves new people) and Rebecca even scooped the litter box. I came back to a happy kitty!”


8. Lina O.

“Lina has done house sitting for my dog Zues twice now. Each of these trips were long weekend outings. Both times I have come home to my house exactley as I left it and my dog disappointed I'm not Lina! Just kidding! But I can tell he has a good time with her and that she gives him plenty of attention while I'm gone. Lina stays in good contact with me while I'm away, and will send pictures if you ask for them. In a nutshell, Lina is trustworthy, caring for your pet, clean and reliable. In my book that's all you need!”


9. Ryan G.

“Ryan was prompt, courteous and took great care of our dog Duke while we visited family out of state for a weekend. Duke immediately loved him and we felt at ease leaving him in Ryan’s care. We highly recommend Ryan and are looking forward to booking him again in the future!”

I wholeheartedly recommend Nicolle to anyone seeking a compassionate and skilled caregiver for their furry companions.”

15. Alexandra B.
About: I have four dogs and one cat in Colombia. I am the manager at Arca de Noé, a foundation that rescues street dogs and helps find them homes. At the foundation, I’ve done every kind of work—feeding, bathing, providing medical care, and cleaning their beds and kennels. I also used to take care of friends’ pets when they were away. Currently, I work at St. Hubert’s Animal Shelter in Chatham, where I have been for two years, animals are incredibly important to me. For now I have my afternoons off! I just work for 5 hours during the morning, so I have enough time to take care of any kind of pet. I live in a townhouse, really close to a lot of places to go for a walk, it is a nice area to walk, really nice area.


16. Kristine S.

“We had a fantastic experience using Kristen as our sitter. Our dog loved her, and she went above and beyond to make our dog comfortable, including setting up time before our dog sitting session to meet our dog and understand her needs. Highly recommend!”


17. Stephanie K.

“An absolutely wonderful girl. She responded to my urgent request and came to take care of my immobile senior dog very late at night. Extremely satisfied.”


18. Sarah P.
About: Your parent going away can be a stressful experience, even if they are only gone for a few days. I pride myself on keeping the dogs and cats I care for occupied, loved, safe, and nurtured. As the owner of a fearful and anxious dog myself, I can appreciate the challenges and feelings our pets have when we are not around. It is my goal to keep your dog or cat happy and thriving, despite the temporary change in circumstance! I work from home, and have a flexible schedule that allows me to help care for animals easily. If your pet needs extra love and attention, I can always work from your home! In my clients' homes, I perform a quick safety sweep each time I come and go to look for anything that could pose a risk for your animals (things knocked over, etc.) I take great care in following client instructions when bringing their pets outside, and always have my phone with me in case of emergency!
