“Stephanie is very helpful and attentive! She watched our new puppy all week and made him comfortable. She is flexible and well rounded as a sitter! Highly recommend!”
“I had a great experience with Caitlin. She was prompt to all of our scheduled meetings in the run up to the actual house sit. During the house sit itself she was great with communication and provided pictures of my dog while I was away. Overall a very responsible and professional house/pet sitter who I will use again.”
“I have asked Michelle to cat-sit my kitty twice now and she has been great! My cat has separation anxiety and not only is Michelle great at calming her down, she plays with her a lot. She does a great job of making sure the litter is scooped, water is filled, and food bowls full. She has also been very respectful of my home; she is very clean. I will be asking her to cat-sit my Nugget in the future.”
“Sofia was a lifesaver for a last minute booking. She was so loving, attentive and loving with our Ozzy. She was professional and respectful in our home and sent me constant updates, pictures and videos which gave me peace of mind. She is so talented and also does dog portraits on the side. Check out her work: https://instagram.com/maga_personalizados_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= I would love to hire her again! She was one of my best sitters yet!! ?”
“Fantastic petsitter. Flexible when our flight was delayed. Became besties with our anxious pup within about 30 seconds of his arrival. She was so happy when we got home, but not like oh-my-god-where-have-you-been happy. It was more I'm-a-happy-puppy-and-yay-you're-home. Will be happy to book him again!”
“Quynh was amazing and took great care of Ollie. He loves to hang out with her and she is one of the few people he gets excited to see. We were so grateful how flexible she was when we unexpectedly got delayed and Ollie was happy to spend time with her.”
“Estela was very professional and friendly towards our dog. Somehow our dog instantly bonded with her and even though he has separation anxiety, with Estela he was quite comfortable and calm. I would like to request her service again.”
“Melanie was an absolute life saver, our previous sitter canceled last minute and she stepped up and was above and beyond what me and my wife expected. It was our first time hiring a sitter for our puppy but we will absolutely go back to Melanie again. She’s the best”
“Kerynne was absolutely incredible! My dog fell in love with her and made my last minute trip possible. She followed all my instructions, fed and walked my dog, played with him and even sent photo and video updates. She house-sat and my place was the same as I’d left it. Book her! She’s fantastic.”
“Cittlali was great with my dog. Betta is very shy and reserved but she opened up to her. They went out together and I am impressed that they became friends in just two days. She kept me updated with pictures and messages and it gave me peace of mind. Thank you!”
About: I have 12 yrs of experience in taking care care of dogs. I can do basic grooming. My mom and I put our effort in helping street dogs since 2016 and had saved more than 80 dogs. So I am good at getting along with all different dogs. Also, based on my experience, I can deal with different kinds of minor health issues and emergency situation. I currently work from home as a UIUX designer so I have a very flexible schedule. So basically I’m free 24/7 and am able to rearrange my time to fit with your schedule. I respect all fur friends and their parents’ places. I strictly follow their rules and requests. Also, I am good at cleaning and pet grooming if you need.
About: I can’t wait to walk and play fetch with your dog. Dogs hold a special place in my heart and I can’t wait to meet your baby ! I’m trustworthy and a loving dog sitter and your dog will never be alone. I love giving dogs treats and making them feel special. I love to cuddle with dogs as well. If your dog ever needs medicine, I know how to orally give dog medicine such as allergy pills, and other special medicine that they need. A dog should always feel welcome in a warm loving environment and should feel at home even if they are not. Lastly, a good boy or girl will always get treats if it’s ok. But who doesn’t love spoiling their dogs. I’m currently on the job hunt and need some extra time to prepare for myself moving out. Would love to walk your dog or check up on them ◡̈ I usually don’t take dogs into my house as I do at home visits but I have a fenced yard that will keep them safe.
“We had a great experience with Vivien, who stayed in our home for nine days to care for our pets. Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She was also able to confidently administer insulin to our diabetic cat, which was a huge relief. Vivien was responsible, respectful of our space, and gave all of our pets plenty of attention and care. We came home to a clean house and happy animals. We’d gladly have her back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter.”
About: I have owned dogs, I am a dog owner, breeder and former doggy daycare employee. I have had experience caring for dogs who belonged to other people. I am retired and I don't work, so I have plenty of time to take quality care of your dog. I require contact and yourvet information in case of emergency. I have plenty of time to allow me to provide quality play time with your dog. I can play in the yard with them and in the house.
About: I adopted my Shiba Inu, Freddy, when he was almost 2 years old, and he’s turning 6 in July this year! Some people say Shibas are difficult to take care, but Freddy is absolutely amazing and well-behaved. My wife and I treat him like our son, and we walk him at least twice a day since Day 1. His meals consist of boiled chicken breast/thighs/legs, cabbages, broccoli, carrots, and dog food, etc. Spending time with dogs is one of my greatest joys because they truly are the most loyal friends humans could ever have. Having Freddy in my life has been one of my greatest blessings. From Monday to Friday, I start my workday early in the morning and finish around 2pm. Since my office is only about 10 minutes from home, I have plenty of flexibility and am free from around 3pm until midnight every day. We have a backyard where Freddy can enjoy the fresh air and sunlight, and we even built a small door so he can go in and out freely whenever he wants. Since day one, he’s been covered by pet insurance, and we make sure to bring him in for annual check-ups, including heartworm tests and comprehensive health screenings, to keep him in the best shape possible.
About: I had a family dog for 14 years and gave it all the love during its time with our family. The last five years my dog developed glaucoma and had a strict medicine routine that I had to follow to help with this issue. After that, I was a baby sitter for 3 years and also walked the family dog in the evenings. Since then, I have helped look over my friend’s/roomates dogs while they have been away. I have also been a cat sitter for my friend’s cats. I believe all furry friends deserve love and care, especially when they are away from their owners! At the moment, I am available evenings throughout the week, and I am very flexible on weekends. My schedule may change in mid August as I will return to school. I am great at following instructions and if needed, I will follow up for any clarification on questions. I aim to follow the furry friend’s routine, give them play time, and/or any desired care needed.

“Melanie is so good with our pup Milo, she went out of her way to help ease Milo’s anxiety with talking him on long walks. She aslo sent a lot of pupdates which we really appreciated. Would definitely recommend!”

Jennifer B.
“Hello, sometime in February 2021 when I was looking and seeking help to take care of my pet DJ while I am away for work. First, I tried Facebook if someone will get DJ but just didn’t get lucky after talking to a couple of persons till one day, one of my co-worker mentioned NEXTDOOR another social media platform. It was a blessing when someone named Jennifer Bullock called me up and saying she read my testimony about DJ. She even said she was really touched by my story. Story short, that was beginning of our friendship. She started taking care of DJ without any condions. She put her time, love for DJ as if her own son. Jennifer always have a heart for pets and that is what she loves to do the most of her life. Of course it’s not always happy times when caring for a pet, there’s also sad times. One day, DJ started to get sick and we have to bring to the pet hospital and that was very first time I saw a very sad and devastated Jennifer. She was so worried about his condition. Dj got worsen and it was sometime in September 2023 when our hearts got broken and was hard for to accept that we have to part ways with our favorite pet. To this day, we still been missing DJ so much coz he was so adorable to be with. I am hoping that this testimony helps…. Sincerely, Orlando”
Vincent & Hsiao Chi C.
“I am delighted to recommend Vincent as a dog sitter. As a devoted dog owner himself, Vincent treats every dog with the same love, care, and attention he gives to his own Shiba Inu, Freddy. He has a deep understanding of canine behavior, ensures they get plenty of exercise, and prioritizes their well-being. Vincent is responsible, attentive, and truly enjoys spending time with dogs. Whether it’s following specific feeding routines, taking them on regular walks, or simply providing companionship, he goes above and beyond to make sure each dog feels safe and happy. With his flexible schedule and dedication to pet care, I have no doubt that any dog under his watch will be in great hands. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced dog sitter, I highly recommend Vincent. He will treat your dog like family!”
Elisa A.
“Elisa has been my go-to pet sitter for about 2 years now, and my cat, named Oli, loves her! Elisa is super reliable when it comes to following instructions and providing regular updates/photos. I typically book Elisa to take care of Oli when I go out of town for 2-3 days, and she always goes above and beyond with providing Oli with affection and play time. I always feel at ease knowing that Olí is in good hands with Elisa.”
