“I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.”

“Maverick was great! He was everything we needed in a puppy sitter. He was communicative and polite and the house was in great shape when we returned. 10/10 would use again!!!”

“Lauren is an exceptional sitter. She really understood the different needs of our dogs and was conscientious in every way. She was also very communicative and took great care of our home. We look forward to booking her again!”

“Emily is simply wonderful. Left her with my two golden doodle boy brothers for a full week at my home. She executed everything to perfection from feeding schedules to walking to pictures and videos myself and my children felt comfortable the whole time with Emily and we would definitely use her again.”

“Cathryn was wonderful to work with! She was able to watch my babies for me on short notice when another sitter had to cancel. She took amazing care of my two large dogs and updated me often on how they were doing throughout the weekend. I will definitely hire her again for future trips!”

“Kristie watched our two cats and two dogs overnight and was very communicative. She sent photos and updates and clarified instructions for my high needs 16 year old shih tzu. We appreciate all the care and attention to detail!”


“Johana was great! I love her personality and how much she cares about the animals she takes care of. She stayed overnight at our home and took wonderful care of our fur babies. We look forward to using her in the future!”

About: I care for 3 dogs, 9 cats, & more in a happy, healthy, and clean home. Animals and their wellbeing is central to my life at home. I'm happy to offer my caring attention to your family as well! I am a local middle school teacher who's off for the summer, so I am free 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Open to long or short term work. Each species has it's own language, each breed it's own dialect, and each animal a unique personality. After years of caring for my own animals, I understand that nothing is more important than looking and listening when they attempt to communicate.
“Scarlet went above and beyond throughout our trip. She took incredible care of my dog—kept him on his routine, gave him lots of attention, and made sure he was happy and comfortable the whole time. She sent regular updates and photos which really put me at ease. On top of that, she looked after my home and my vehicles in a bit of crisis. She kept me updated, handled everything with care, and was thoughtful and reliable from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend anyone trust their homes and pets with Scarlett!!! Thank you again!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“Jeweliana and Riley were amazing. We got updates, thoughtful questions and check ins on arrival time back home to ensure the pets were not left alone for too long. They took great care of our house and I felt so much peace of mind having them at my home while I was away.”

About: Hi my name is Dylan! I love animals and being able to spend my time with them. I have a Corgi named Milo who I have taken care of since he was 9 weeks old. In the past years I have fostered cats and dogs for community service which has taught me a great deal about animal care! I’m currently working remotely, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet in the best way! Additionally, I work from 5-10pm daily so day times are completely free. If I for some reason cannot take care of your dog, then my lovely fiancé can! I currently live in a cozy, pet friendly apartment! It is a one bedroom, one bath, with an outdoor balcony. I have an extremely friendly dog Milo, who will gladly keep your pet company! Additionally, my apartment offers a spacious 24/7 dog park, and a fantastic pet grooming station!

About: Growing up in a home with multiple dogs taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention are when caring for pets. I’m very comfortable around dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going on walks, playing, or just helping them feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I know every dog is different, and I always try to make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I’ve grown up in a home with multiple cats and dogs. I’m used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets are comfortable and cared for throughout the day. Because I’ve always been around animals, caring for them feels like a normal and easy part of my everyday life. I’m used to living in a multi-pet household, so I pay attention to different needs at the same time. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully by making sure they’re fed on time, getting the exercise and attention they need, and making sure they always have a clean, safe space. I also focus on being calm, patient, and respectful of each pet’s comfort level.
About: I've fostered and taken care of reactive dogs as well as dogs with medical needs. I'm experienced in administering insulin and caring for senior dogs. I have a flexible work schedule and am happy to care for any pets on the weekends. On the weekdays, my schedule greatly varies so it would be best to directly contact me with inquiries. I offer house sitting and dog walking services. If your fur baby gets along with mine, I'm more than happy to care for them in my apartment. I have a balcony where my cat loves to watch the cars go by and also have access to a fenced in play area for dogs to run around in.
“Rebekah was amazing! She took the best care of our spoiled boxers and sent lots of updates. Great communication! We will definitely be rebooking with Rebekah.”

“Pam has become my trusted go-to for all of my sitter needs. All of my furbabes lover her (and her son!) and I can’t imagine trusting anyone else with my lovelies or my home.”


“Our dog was well cared for by Sarah. He enjoyed her calm demeanor and the treats he got after walks probably helped him overcome any hesitations. We would definitely recommend her and use her again.”

“I cannot recommend Mandy enough! She took care of my fur baby as if he were her own. Not only did she provide him with great potty breaks and meals, but she also made sure he got plenty of exercise and playtime. I loved receiving pictures of my pup having a blast while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, look no further. This sitter is truly top-notch!”

About: As a toddler until I was 10, we had dacshaunds. I loved them so but when you discover them after they have passed, it leaves an impression on you. This type of impression has led a part of my life to educating, advocating, and nursing but a dog owner, I won't become. I've lived with the problem Doberman-Rottweilers, smaller schnauzers, cutesy Italian Greyhound AND I pet most every pup I see (with permission, of course). I've had and have cats, from 2 months to 24 years old. I would love to visit and care for the cats and dogs if my community. Reach out! I'd love to meet your pet baby. I work virtually 4 days a week and have a lot of flexibility. This allows me the ability to watch pets, and care for my own. I have 4 indoor cats and a myriad of outdoor cats. I play with them, feed them and provide then with their favorite snacks: Churus. Cleaning up the box during each visit is a given considering cats need a neat space. For dogs, I would make sure to have bags to get their waste and keep snacks to make sure their given something for good behavior.
“Philip was available to meet at the last minute and was very flexible in meeting up to meet my dog. He had responsive communication during the whole time I went out of town . My dog was very happy and well taken care of. I am so glad to find someone to keep my dog for in the future. Thank you Philip!”

Maverick was amazing with our two Shibas. He was super responsive, respectful of our property, and great with the boys. Our fur babies can be quirky and he followed all of our instructions. The boys were happy and healthy when we got home. I think he really treated them well and we will absolutely book with him if the need ever arises again!

Bayli was absolutely amazing watching our two dogs over the weekend! She was incredibly communicative and responsive the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She sent tons of pictures and updates, and it was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. She also took great care of our home and kept everything clean and in order, which we really appreciated coming back home to. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches and goes above and beyond to make sure both the pets and owners feel comfortable. We would 100% trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring dog sitter!

Atreyu took amazing care of Nico and we couldn’t be happier. He followed every single instruction carefully, kept us updated throughout the stay, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Communication was excellent from start to finish. He sent regular updates and clearly paid close attention to Nico’s routines and needs. It’s obvious he genuinely cares about the pets he looks after. On top of that, he left our place in excellent condition. Everything was clean, organized, and just as we left it. We would absolutely trust Atreyu again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and reliable sitter.

This was the second time Jess stayed over to watch our pup, and once again she was great. She was punctual, communicated promptly throughout, and confirmed details earlier in the week since the stay had been planned for about a month. She left our home exactly as she found it and sent photos that clearly showed our baby was happy and well cared for. Thanks again, Jess!
