1. Casey P.

“This is the third time Casey has watched our 2 dogs and house for us and we couldn’t be happier. Casey is reliable and friendly and very communicative with us while we are away. We know we are in good hands when Casey watches our dogs.”


2. Celeste G.

“Celeste was great! She came early and did a wonderful job. The dogs loved her and took to her quickly which was a huge bonus. She gave update and cute photos and was so easy to work with. I’d love to have her watch our dogs again!”


3. Sienna P.

“I can't recommend Sienna enough as a dog sitter! She stepped in last minute and did an amazing job looking after my fur baby. Sienna kept him engaged and happy, playing with him and taking him on a walk, which he absolutely loved. She did a fantastic job managing his energy levels and making sure he was well taken care of. I really appreciated the regular updates, including pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Sienna went above and beyond, and I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”


4. Nancy N.

“Nancy was a great sitter for our american bully “Fuji”! My wife and I were expected to go into labor sometime in the week, but wasnt sure when. We contacted Nancy and within a day she came over for a meet and greet with her dog “Nem Nuong”. Things went well and I told her we would be on call when the time comes. Sure enough a week later, we went into labor. She was available to come to the house promptly, and stayed with Fuji, along with her dog too. She was very knowledgeable about Fuji’s meds, and great with communication and updates. She was in and out for the next couple days but made sure she spent enough time with Fuji to make her feel comfortable. Even staying over nights! We had nothing to worry about for the next few days and now Fuji has a new dog friend!! We highly recommend and hopefully Nancy will be available when we need her services again!! She even left us some sweet desserts in our fridge went we returned home!”


5. Elena H.

“Elena has watched our dogs several times this year in 2023. We like using the same sitter when we can to avoid too much change for the dogs. Elena gets along great with our dogs and she leaves our home clean. We appreciate her so much!”


6. Eliana S.

“Eliana took great care of our babies and our home! We felt confident leaving them in her care based on her calm, kind demeanor and the insightful questions she asked during the meet and greet, which showed her knowledge and intuition for animal behavior. She kept in great contact and was even a great sport about some circuit breaker issues that popped up while we were away. Reliable, responsive, and very sweet with our precious pets!”


7. Laurie Beth M.


“Laurie did a great job with our little Rowdy! It was great to get to take our grandkids to the NASCAR race and not worry about him as he was able to stay in his own house (RV). Thank you Laurie for taking good care of our little guy!”


8. Juri M.

“Juri was the best and I would absolutely recommend her services! She took great care of my two pups, and worked well with their high-energy personalities! She is attentive, kind, and made sure to keep me updated with pictures of their walks and updates. Thank you, Juri!! 🐾”


9. Elizabeth T.

“They were great! Very communicative. It’s hard for me to feel totally comfortable that someone is taking proper care of my dog but felt at complete ease with them watching my dog.”


10. Louise C.
About: I had the pleasure of caring for my two Doberman since they were puppies and for 7-8 years thereafter. They became part of our family and brought tremendous joy to our lives. Love does not describe my deep affection for them. I would be privileged and honored to provide that same level of care for your dogs. I am available 8am to 4pm Mondays through Saturdays. However, I am willing to work with clients if my services are needed beyond those hours. I would prefer to dog sit at the client’s home. I will check the backyard, doors & gates outside to ensure the client’s dog(s) are safe and secure. I will also need to know if there is a house alarm and operating instructions.


11. Edith M.

“Edith house sat for my dog and two cats, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the moment we first spoke, she was professional, friendly, and genuinely caring about the well-being of my animals. She kept me updated with regular pictures and messages, which really put my mind at ease. She took the time to get to know my pets’ individual needs and routines, making sure everyone kept their schedule and got to enjoy playtime. It was clear that my pets were in loving hands, as they seemed happy and content when I returned. She took very good care of our home as well and kept it so clean. I highly recommend Edith to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, and compassionate pet sitter. She went above and beyond to ensure my pets were happy and safe, and I will definitely be booking with her again!”


12. sara a.
“I have had the pleasure of knowing Sara for several years, and I can confidently say that she is one of the most responsible and caring dog owners I've ever met. She has been taking care of my furry friend, Zoe, for me while I'm away on trips, and I can't even begin to express how grateful I am to have her in my life. Sara has a true passion for animals, and it shows in the way she treats them. She is meticulous about their well-being, making sure they receive the best care possible. From providing fresh food and water to administering medication and giving them plenty of love and attention, Sara leaves no stone unturned when it comes to ensuring the happiness and health of the dogs in her care. I've had many friends recommend Sara as a dog sitter over the years, but I can confidently say that she's exceeded all my expectations. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about animals and will treat your furry friend like part of the family, look no further than Sara. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!”


13. Grace H.
“Grace was amazing with my fur babies. I felt comfortable leaving my VERY spoiled dogs in her care. She stayed at my house while we were out of town to my dogs could be comfortable in a familiar environment. She kept me updated, sent me pictures, and I will never hesitate to reach out to Grace for pet care in the future. Thank you Grace!!!”


14. Ann G.

“Ann is awesome! She sends pictures and updates and our two boxers clearly love her since they would rather sleep near her than in their usual beds. This is our second booking with her and it’s such a relief to have someone we can count on.”


15. Isabel S.
“Isabel takes the best care for my dog, Otis. She is great with all dogs, follows directions to a T. She has been around and taking care of dogs her whole life. Isabel truly cares about the well-being of animals and makes decisions when needed in their best interest. She has given Otis pills using different methods when he is being challenging, has rubbed medication on him and given him lots and lots of love.”


16. Lindsey M.

“Lindsey did an amazing job. We have three difficult dogs, who can be a lot even for us and she handled them well and made sure they were comfortable. We will definitely be using Lindsey again and I highly recommend her. She also kept the house clean and even stripped the sheets from The bed!”


17. Amanda P.

“Excellent attention to our puppy's needs. Very respectful of our house. Accommodating. We'll use her again.”


18. Gisselle A.

“She took lots of pictures. Helped as much as possible. He wasn't feeling well and she took him out numerous times to ease his worries. She kept me updated on everything. Very polite and nice to have had her help.”


19. Jesus D.
About: Hi there! I'm excited to tell you about my experience caring for pets, especially dogs. With two wonderful pups of my own, aged 2 and 5, I've learned firsthand the joy and responsibility that comes with being a pet parent. From daily walks to cozy snuggles, I understand the importance of providing attentive and loving care to furry companions. What sets me apart as a sitter is my dedication to meeting the unique needs of each dog in my care. I love helping young pups learn basic commands and develop good manners in a positive and encouraging environment. As someone who has raised puppies, I know the importance of early training. Additionally, with my older dog by my side, I've gained valuable experience in caring for senior pets. Whether it's gentle exercise, administering medication, or providing extra comfort, I'm committed to ensuring that older dogs receive the attention and care they deserve. As a pet lover and responsible caregiver, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every furry friend I encounter. When your pets are with me, they'll be treated like part of the family, receiving plenty of love, attention, and care. Currently not employed, my schedule offers ample time for devoted pet care. Each day is dedicated to ensuring the well-being and happiness of the furry companions I welcome into my home. Mornings kick off with energizing walks, providing exercise and a chance for fresh air. Throughout the day, play sessions and interactive activities keep tails wagging. I prioritize regular feeding schedules, tailored to the dietary needs of each pet. Whether it's a visit to the local dog park or a cozy evening cuddle, I cherish every moment spent with my canine friends. This period of flexibility allows me to provide the attention, care, and companionship that dogs thrive on, creating a harmonious and joyful environment. In both my home and my clients' spaces, the cornerstone of my pet care approach is safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. Living in an apartment, I ensure that the dogs under my care have the freedom to move about freely, fostering a sense of comfort and relaxation. Regular walks to nearby parks provide not only essential exercise but also a change of scenery and the opportunity for social interactions with other canine friends. Creating a safe haven is paramount; I meticulously puppy-proof and dog-proof my living space to eliminate potential hazards. Beyond physical safety, I prioritize building a trusting relationship with each pet through positive interactions, ensuring they feel at home and secure in their temporary abode.

“I wanted to say that Jasmine was able to watch my puppy with very short notice. She was on time and very sweet. She provided updates throughout the day. I will definitely be using her again to watch my puppy.”
