“I have used this app throughout the years and Nicholas is by far THE BEST! He is reliable, on time, communicates very well and leaves no trace. As a matter of fact, he left our place looking better than it was when we went away. Most importantly, our dog and cat were calm and happy - they were definitely in good hands. We recommend Nicholas and hope he is available for our family again in the future.”
“Lillie is wonderful with our pup Flora! We couldn't ask for a more responsive sitter, who shares daily updates with us and provides the best possible care to our sweet but sometimes complicated pittie. Flora always loves when Lillie comes to stay, and we always know she's in excellent hands. Highly recommended.”
About: With years of experience competing in dog shows, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior to every walk and sitting session. A lifelong animal lover, I’ve been around both cats and dogs since I was seven. Trust me to provide expert care and companionship for your furry friends. I’m currently working part-time. My Sunday and Mondays are always open and the rest of the week I am available after 2pm. I can also be very flexible if given early notice. I will care for your pets as if they’re my own. All instructions given to me will be strictly adhered to. My top priority is making sure your pet stays happy and healthy throughout each service.
“Jennifer was an excellent sitter for Bruce! She scheduled a meet and greet several days before her first time with Bruce. She arrived promptly and asked all the right questions to confirm to me that I—and Bruce!—were in good hands when she would be taking care of him. Jennifer is pleasant, communicative and very reliable! I definitely recommend her to you! And, I’ll be using her again! THANKS!”
“Alicia was a great communicator and kept us in the know all the time, sending pictures and updates. Prina adored her and we will definitely be booking Alicia to watch Prina again :)”
“Siobhan came recommended by my sister. She is amazing and showed our dogs the same love and care that we do. Her communication was outstanding. Anytime we messaged, she messaged right back. I am a detailed planner and I left very detailed notes for Siobhan and she read through them and even did a bit of training with our hard headed husky “Woodford”.”
About: I can train puppies and care for senior dogs. I have had 8 different pets all lived over 15 years old and I insist it is because they know they were well loved. I can handle huge dogs I generally work part-time. Currently home full-time. I take dogs out generally about 4 times. They will be well loved. Bring their favorite toy so I can play with them with it. They will be walked every other day health permitting. I generally prefer dogs but but I love all animals.I don't have any animals of my own right so let me "borrow" yours. ;) I care for dogs, cats. I currently have a cat of my own. I generally like to train them as well with simple commands to make your life simpler. I am currently pursuing a certificate in dog training.
About: I already know how to give certain medications, train certain tricks, and take care of old dogs that might need an extra boost. Im also very willing to learn something I may not already know how to do! I also don't just take care of your pets but your home too, if you need plants watered, trash taken out, mail picked up... just let me know! I Currently work some weeks from 3pm-9pm Monday-friday but my schedule is not always this way. If your pet needs extra care during this time that is something we could work out aswell! I try my best to step into your shoes while you are away to keep your pets routine very similar to what they are used to, but I also try to do extra fun things with them so its like a mini vacation for them while you are on your vacation! I keep a happy environment for you and your pets.
“Patience was such a fabulous sitter for Luka and Onyx. Luka, our 2yo pup, has some deeply rooted fear-of-stranger issues, Patience handled him so well. We felt very reassured leaving our fur babies for the weekend, and Luka was SO mellow upon our return. Truly phenomenal care!”
About: For the past four years, I’ve been the dedicated sitter for a family who entrusts me with their pets every time they travel. I care for both their 2 dogs (Golden Aussie and Brindle Pitbull) and 2 senior cats, handling everything from feeding and playtime to clean up and companionship. I grew up with dogs and birds, and currently have a cat of my own, so I’m comfortable with animals of all kinds. I’m reliable, observant, and truly love spending time with animals—whether it’s a high-energy walk or a calm cuddle session. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I work full-time, but pet care is still a meaningful part of my routine. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for drop-ins or walks in the early mornings, evenings, and some lunch hours depending on your location. I’m used to coordinating around a work schedule, and I always make time for the animals in my care—they’re never an afterthought. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize safety, routine, and respect for your space. I follow instructions exactly, stay in close communication, and treat your home and animals with care. Whether it's keeping up with feeding times, administering medication, or helping your pet feel less alone while you're away, I bring a calm and reliable presence to every visit.
“Abby was a last minute find and was wonderful! She was really great at communicating before and throughout her stay with our two dogs. She sent photos and we could tell our dogs were really happy with Abby upon our return home. We’d be happy to have Abby back to our house to watch our pups again.”
“Hattie was a great sitter and I can tell that our pups loved her company! Our residence was left clean and well taken care of while we were away. We absolutely recommend her for all bookings and we will absolutely be booking her again for our next trip!”
About: I’ve trained and taken care of my own dogs including becoming a therapy dog team with my current dog, Jonas. I love “reading” dogs and responding to their needs. I dog sit in my home and also offer dog sitting services to guests at my Airbnb on-site. Currently I am using a walker and am awaiting hip replacement surgery. As part of my schedule of care, I do two walks per day and I practice training after each exercise session. I offer lots of variety in activities and it’s a safe place to have fun and play! I have two doggy doors and a fenced in dog yard. I have crates, many play and relaxing areas, and many toys to enjoy. Depending on the mix of dogs, I cater to your way of feeding, needs for training, etc.
About: Hi there! My name is Katelyn, I’m a registered nurse. I am an extremely active person, so if your pup likes to play, we will get along just fine! I love to go on runs, hike, and go for walks. I have sat for a variety of dogs of all breeds and sizes so I am comfortable with sitting almost all dogs! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns! I look forward to hearing from you soon :) I am extremely flexible and I am able to work with you to determine how to best meet your pets needs while they’re away from you. I make sure to create a safe environment for your pet no matter the environment. Each animal should be met with an individualized goal in mind.

She has helped us have one night away and/or up to almost 10 days at a time. She is loving, compassionate, dependable, intelligent and cares for our house and family as if it were her own home/family.

I highly recommend Jenny and would hire her again in a heartbeat!!!”
Katelyn C.
“Katelyn is one of the most caring and enthusiastic people I have met. I am her aunt and have had the pleasure of seeing her grow and flourish. I have also had the opportunity to work with her. She has dog-sat for me on countless occasions. Whether it has been for an entire weekend or just a night, she has always taken extremely good care of my three dogs that I have had over the years. I had a chow-chow until he passed away a few years ago. Katelyn and "Boo" were inseparable. After he passed away, I got two new dogs. "Mick" is a mut and was rescued along with "Dolan" who is a purebred Cavalier King Charles spaniel. Both dogs love Katelyn! She is an outstanding sitter who loves keeping the dogs active! She always offers to take them on walks/runs and to the park. I would highly recommend my sweet niece for the job!”
