“Sam took great care of my 2 senior dogs. She came exactly as we arranged and was very communicative. Would ask Sam to take care of my dogs again without hesitation. Thanks Sam!”



“Paola did a great job. She did everything that was requested to look after my cat, Trixie. Trixie would be fine either way so this was more about me and my neuroses. Paola showed up as scheduled to feed and water Trixie. She also sent pics so I could see how Trixie was doing. This is definitely the way to go and Paola was the right choice. Paola was respectful of my home and cat. With Paola’s help, I was able to enjoy my weekend away.”


“Doris is excellent with my puppy! I was traveling for work and having her walk my dog regularly during the day put me at such ease. She is trustworthy and truly cares for my dog. He got a ton of exercise and was a happy puppy when I got home. Thank you so much, Doris!!!”


“My dogs took to Marc right away. He was at ease with both of my big guys and sent me cute videos of them playing. Marc really likes animals and it shows on how he cares for them. Looking forward to having him back when the need arises.”


“Karina is an excellent animal caretaker and highly responsive communicator! I had peace of mind that my two cats were being tended to and provided affection during my vacation. She also takes an abundance of great photos, which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Karina’s services.”


About: I've had a dog in my home since I was 3 years old so I have plenty of experience and knowledge of how to properly care for them. I also have practice from walking my friends and neighbors dogs and cat sitting. I'm currently home from college for summer break so I have plenty of flexible time to care for your pets! I don't go back until September and I am available everyday of the week. I love to play with them, cuddle them, and make them happy. To care for them I feed them and walk them and make sure they are comfortable.

“Ana is a reliable, sweet and diligent dog sitter. She takes excellent care of our thee very different dogs and they all love her. Also her communication is outstanding. We will book her again for sure. Thanks!”


About: I’ve had dogs in my home since I was 4 years old, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. Beyond my personal experience, I’ve also worked at multiple pet shelters in both New Jersey and Arizona, where I cared for animals of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a shy senior dog, I know how to create a calm, loving, and safe environment. I treat every pet like family and always go the extra mile to make sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently home from Arizona State University and have a very open and flexible schedule. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight care, I’m available and ready to help. I can easily accommodate last-minute requests and am committed to giving your pet consistent attention and care throughout the day. I prioritize safety by following each pet’s routine and needs closely, whether in my home or yours. I keep a calm, clean, and secure environment and always communicate clearly with pet parents. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priorities, and I treat every home with respect and care.

“Laura was absolutely great!! She took the effort to meet me a few times prior, so we could practice and learn how to do my cat's inhaler therapy and she was able to consistently do it for him this time! Very very pleased with the outcome!”


About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog enthusiast, having grown up with my adorable Schnauzer, Candy, and my lively Siberian Husky, Jody. Right now, I can't have pets of my own, but I'm as passionate as ever about spending time with dogs. I've celebrated countless special moments with Candy and gone on endless adventures with Jody, which taught me so much about what it takes to keep a dog happy and healthy. I might be new to professional dog sitting since I have just volunteered in shelters for about one year, but I've got a natural knack for making furry friends feel loved and secure when their humans are away. I'm really looking forward to meeting your dog and making sure we have a ton of fun together, just like I did with my own pups! During the weekdays, I teach in high school from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, but I'm available for evening walks and potty breaks right after school. I understand the importance of sticking to a routine, so I can ensure your dog gets the evening exercise and attention they need during the week. On weekends, my schedule is completely open, allowing me to provide full-time care filled with love, play, and all the cuddles your pets can handle! Whether it's weekday evenings or any time over the weekend, I'm dedicated to fitting into your pet's routine, ensuring they feel happy and cared for every day. I prioritize maintaining their routine to ensure comfort. I provide regular updates, manage feeding, walking, and playtime, and ensure the home remains secure and tidy.

“Vanessa and Jeremy were wonderful with Milton! He loves treats and playtime and they gave him lots of both- even sparking his interest with a different wand toy. I will definitely book with Vanessa in the future.”


“Svetlana was wonderful with sandy and Teddy; will be using her for an upcoming overnight trip. She fed them, took them out, and made sure they were safe and happy.”



“I was away for 2 weeks and leaving my cat alone for such a long time was weighing on me leading up to the trip. I was so appreciative of Kate for taking care of him 2x/day for that time, with pics and updates, which gave me huge peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy my trip! My cat was great when I got back thanks to Kate and all the playing and pets 😊”


About: I have worked in the veterinary field for 4 years as a veterinary assistant. I started pet sitting for my family members and neighbors for their cats and dogs. I have pet sit and walked dogs of all sizes but I have the most experience dog walking medium sized dogs between 40-70lbs from labs to pit bulls. I’m currently attending the university of Delaware and have class Monday through Friday! I’m most available on Wednesday after 3, Thursdays after 2, and Fridays after 12. Sundays I’m free all day! I am well experienced with dogs and cats of all sizes from my experience working at a vets office. I will gladly play, walk, or just entertain and watch your pet as you deem necessary.

About: I have babysat many dogs, have had many family dogs, and would love to have one of my own one day if time allows! In the meantime would love to take care of yours 🙂 I work a hybrid schedule, and am available Friday - ‘ Mondays only. Morning and evenings work best, which also is great for pets who need to get their energy up for the day or to get energy out before end of night! I am more than happy to assist with crating, feeding, and ensuring water is filled for animals to make sure they have a comfortable day at home.

“Gabriella provided drop-in cat visits while my family was away on vacation. She provide food/water, cleaned the litter boxes, and cleaned up a mess that my cat made while we were away. Gabriella is very professional and I would highly recommend her!”
