“Linda took great care of our dog Georgie and our home. She communicated with us throughout her stay and made us feel very comfortable leaving our dog and home in her hands. We would definitely recommend her and would book her services again!”

“Sheila house-sat and looked after my 2 west highland terriers. I could tell they both adored their new friend. With the updates and photos, It was very comforting to have someone care for them in own home.”

About: I’ve cared for pets of many different species from large and small dogs to cats, bunnies, and fish since I was 10 years old. Because of this, I'm comfortable with handling different temperaments, routines, and specialized care needs! While I love pets of all shapes and sizes, I have more experience with larger breeds, but I thrive with low to medium energy dogs. That said, I grew up with a Doberman, a Belgian Malinois, and a French Mastiff. I am very familiar with both high-drive breeds and gentle giants. I actually formed the strongest bond with my French Mastiff over our shared love of sleeping! As I’m not in school at the moment I currently have an open and highly flexible schedule, I can adapt to your pet's routine and needs. My main commitment outside of pet sitting is caring for my own pets at home, my cat and three bunnies! Because my time is so flexible, I can offer dedicated time, attentive care, and flexible drop-in or sitting hours. I prioritize communication, safety, and respect for your home! I’ll send frequent photo and video updates so you know your pet is thriving. Before any booking, I make sure to write down all key details, including your pet's routine, feeding instructions, emergency contacts, and household rules so everything runs smoothly!

“Ethan was an excellent sitter for our dog while we were out of town!! He responded quickly to messages and handled a last-minute booking change with ease. He kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind :)”

“Holly was a dream! I was anxious to leave my 7 month old dog and adult dog home alone for a whole day while at an event, as they usually have one of their humans at home. Holly was quick to communicate, and most importantly my two dogs and 3 cats love her! My puppy can be nervous with new people, and my other dog has separation anxiety. However, they were both able to settle easily after I left! They were happy and relaxed when I arrived home which made it easy to decompress after a long day. Plus, one of my cats really enjoyed a 2 hour snuggle with her on the couch! Safe to say, our pets were well taken care of by Holly -- loved and cared for the way we would. The photo updates throughout the day helped ease this anxious pet mom too :)”

“Rachael was amazing! Our dogs warmed up to her quickly and seemed well taken care of over the weekend. Rachael sent updates on both the dogs and our house (we had a water leak that she noticed right away and she took all the appropriate steps to mitigate any further water damage until we got home). Thank you again Rachael!!”

“Brandon was an amazing friend for Buddy while we were away. It was great having Buddy cared for in his own home and he enjoyed spending time with Brandon in familiar surroundings. I highly recommend Brandon to anyone looking for loving care for their fur baby 😊”

“Arjun treated our dog like family and communicated with us through the day to let us know how they were doing. I would highly recommend Arjun.”

“This is our second booking with Caroline - it went just as well as the first. She is very responsive and great to work with and shows genuine care for our boys.”

“Abigail was so wonderful house sitting for my two dogs. My flight left early in the morning and she arrived early which was much appreciated so I knew she and the boys were settled before I departed. I felt totally at ease being away knowing they were in good care. In every photo update she shared they looked so happy and comfortable. I would definitely book again with her!”

“This is our third time using Double Duty (Des & Michelle), and they continue to exceed our expectations every single time. They take exceptional care of our dog and our home, truly going above and beyond in every way. Our current dog is a new rescue, and we wouldn’t have trusted anyone else with him - their patience, attention, and genuine care gave us complete peace of mind. It’s clear how much they truly care about the animals they look after. We always come home to a happy dog and a perfectly cared-for home. Highly recommend and will absolutely continue using them in the future!”

Jenn L.

“Melina is very kind, always comes on time, take pictures of our dog while she is here and leaves your home the way she found it or better. We recommend her always.”

Karen D.

“Ken and Michele took such good care of our dogs and our home during their 3 night house sitting stay. They provided much appreciated updates and photos that assured us our 2 dogs were in good hands. We will use them again. Thank you Ken and Michele”

“This was Jeff's 3rd stay with Athena in our house but 2nd extended one. We are not easy to trust others but with Jeff we developed peace of mind and confidence after multiple proofs of Jeff's dedication to his commitment. Whatever comments and suggestions we left after previous house sitting were respectfully followed by Jeff this time to make it even better. We are very happy with the service provided by Jeff and care of Athena. Thanks to Jeff and his family, Athena was in great hands and we were able to enjoy our vacation fully. She developed a great bond with Jeff during the 1st stay and continue welcoming him in our house without any signs of fear or stress (we would tell because she's very shy and sensitive). Jeff followed our instructions, provided us with daily updates, answered our questions quickly and provided lots of pictures from walks and house. Each time upon returning, we found the house spotless and our dog happy to see us but still clinging to Jeff which speaks volumes. With Jeff we feel safe and hope to maintain him for our frequent vacations in 2025! Thank you Jeff and Raissa!”

“Amber provided frequent updates and left the house just as it was left. Mozzie was in great care and well taken care of. Would absolutely hire her again!”
