Anna was fantastic, in-house sitting my two kittens while I was on a two week vacation. Super knowledgeable about cats and animals and I had incredible peace mind knowing she was caring for them while I was gone. I appreciated the many pictures and updates Anna sent, how fast she was to respond to any questions, and how truly accommodating she was. I highly recommend Anna!!

We hit the jackpot with Abigail as our house and dog sitter! She stayed at our home for 5 nights and handled our 3 quirky small dogs like an absolute pro, including our clingy puppy who wouldn’t let Abigail out of her sight! Since our dogs are used to someone working from home, having Abigail there with them was a total game changer. She kept us updated often, communicated about any issues that popped up, and sent the sweetest photos that made us smile (and relax!). This was our first time booking Abigail and we felt comfortable with her immediately upon meeting her just a few days prior to our trip. We came home to a happy house and 3 very well-loved dogs. Truly could not have asked for better care. We’d book her again in a heartbeat!

Riley took care of our boys while we were away for a week. She sent a daily picture which helped ease our minds while being away. Our boys were happy when we returned home to them.

About: Every dog, cat, and critter gets my full attention, patience, and genuinely endless affection. Your pet will be in hands that actually care, not just someone checking a box. I pay keen attention to their needs, wait patiently for pets to trust me, and show up exactly when I say I will. I'm a law student heading into my second year of school and I have flexibility this summer for regular visits or last-minute help. I've spent years caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and new clients and I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities. I pay close attention to each animal's cues, take the time to build genuine trust, and am someone you can count on — on time, every time. While I don't have pets of my own right now, I'm surrounded by them constantly and there is honestly nowhere I'd rather be. My schedule is flexible. If it works for you, it works for me. Above all else, I believe communication and timeliness are everything. You'll always hear from me promptly, whether it is confirming a booking, giving an update mid-visit, or letting you know about anything unexpected. No guessing, no chasing me down, just reliable, responsive care you can count on. When I'm in your home, your pet's comfort and routine come first. I follow your instructions closely including feeding schedules, walking routes, any quirks or preferences because familiarity and consistency are what keep animals calm and happy in their parents absence. I treat every home with the same care and respect I'd want shown in my own, and I'm always in close communication so you're never left wondering how things are going. Further, I know that inviting someone new into your home and trusting them with your pets is a big deal, please be assured I'm direct, honest, and an open book.

We missed our dogs terribly while away on vacation, but never once were we worried about how they were at home. Carson kept us updated with daily pictures or notes about how they were doing. It was clear how much they immediately took to him and how happy they were with him around. And on top of that, he took some incredible action shots of our dog flipping for the frisbee, which he threw for her each day the sun was shining. We are extremely grateful for the wonderful care Carson gave our dogs and the peace of mind he gave us while traveling. Absolutely recommend him and will hopefully work with him again in the future!

Elizabeth took wonderful care of Roo while we were away for four days. She was incredibly flexible, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease throughout our entire time away. She sent frequent updates and pictures, which we really appreciated. It was clear that Roo was well cared for, and Elizabeth left our home very clean and treated it with respect. We would absolutely book with Elizabeth again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter.

As a pet parent to three cats, a dog and a bunny, I spend a lot of time caring for and playing with my own pets.

About: Hi everyone! My name is Allison, and I am currently a student at UMW home for summer break. I’m looking forward to spending time with pets while also enjoying a fun side hustle doing something I truly love. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have full responsibility for my dog, Cooper, a Goldendoodle. I also have three Maine Coon cats who keep life entertaining! This summer, I will continue regularly walking my neighbor’s dogs, something I’ve been doing for about two years now. Animals bring me so much joy, and I genuinely love being around and caring for pets of all kinds. I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members and make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I’m a college student at home, working a part-time serving job. I have lots of free time to spend with y’all’s pets! I’m patient, caring, and love giving pets the attention they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure your furry friends feel happy and loved while you’re away. I plan to visit people’s homes to walk their dogs and stay if needed. I am extremely respectful and mindful of everyone’s property, and I will treat each home with the same care and respect as I would my own.

Rachel was wonderful sitting for our 2 GSP's while we took a short weekend trip! She was very responsive both during the booking process and while we were away. Rachel is very knowledgeable about caring for dogs which really adds to the comfort level in leaving them. My younger dog is ball obsessed and she kept him entertained so he was happy! My house was neat and tidy when we returned. I would not hesitate to book with Rachel again and hopefully will be able to do so in the near future!

I can only give Isabella 5 Stars but would happily give her more. She was wonderful to work with from the beginning, being very responsive and professional. She listened to our needs and helped customize a schedule that worked for our two dogs. One has some anxiety issues and the other is older and requires daily medications. She handle both with ease. She checked in with me daily and reached out with a couple questions to clarify while we were away to ensure they had the level of care needed. I was so appreciative of this as this was the first time she had stayed with my dogs. The dogs really seem to like her and she them. I was impressed with her attention to detail. We will absolutely hire her again.
