“Valerie took really good care of my two cats while I was away for 1.5 weeks. She was attentive to their needs, sent regular updates and great photos, and followed my instructions carefully. She was also very responsive to additional details I shared along the way and made sure everything was taken care of. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Erika was absolutely fantastic and her communication was impeccable. Our boys warmed up to her fairly quickly and she made sure they got all the love during her drop in visits. We had to book Erika last minute and she was very responsive and quick to let us know she was able to take our booking. We will definitely be booking Erika in the future and I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone.”
“Can’t thank Brittany enough for stepping up on such short notice! She was super professional, reliable, and clearly has a ton of experience. To top it all off, she was even approved by our very temperamental cat, Angus — which is saying something! It’s always stressful going away when you don’t have anyone lined up to take care of your pets, but Brittany made the whole process incredibly easy and gave us complete peace of mind. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for a variety of furry and feathered friends. I grew up surrounded by animals and have experience fostering dogs, cats, ducks, and birds, giving them a safe, loving, and comfortable home while they needed extra care. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to provide plenty of love, companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I’m also comfortable caring for animals who may need a little extra patience and attention, including puppies and senior pets. For me, pet sitting is more than simply looking after an animal—it’s about making them feel safe, loved, and at home while their family is away. I have an online job, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be around throughout the day. This means I can give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I’m happy to work around each pet’s routine and needs, whether they need regular walks, meals at specific times, extra attention, or simply some company throughout the day. I also have availability on weekends and can be flexible with scheduling to make things easier for pet parents. When caring for pets in their home, I make it a priority to keep them comfortable and maintain their usual routine as much as possible. I follow the pet parent’s instructions for meals, walks, playtime, medication, and any other specific needs. I give pets plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while also respecting their space and personality. I’m happy to spend extra time with them so they don’t feel lonely while their family is away. I also treat every client’s home with care and respect. I’ll keep things clean and tidy, make sure pets are safe and comfortable, and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Melina was fantastic! She took such good care of my kitty Bébé. She followed my instructions to the letter. Was on time every day, she gave me updates daily with cute pics of my baby. Everything was left clean and tidy. But most of all my Bébé was happy and content. I think she might have gain a pound or two lol Thank you so much Melina for taking such great care of my Bébé.”
About: I understand how difficult it can be to leave your dog behind when work, travel, vacations or everyday responsibilities come up. Your dog is part of your family and you want to know they are receiving attention, exercise, companionship and genuine care while you are away. My approach is simple: I treat every dog as an individual and make their comforts and happiness a priority. I take time to understand their personality, routines, energy level, walking preferences and any behaviour or special instructions that are important to their care. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, some playtime, companionship while you’re at work or a calm, comfortable presence while you are travelling, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention throughout the day and I also make it a habit to provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is doing fine. I work from home more than half the time so my schedule gives me a lot of flexibility when caring for pets. When I’m working from home, your dog can stay with me throughout the day rather than being left alone for hours. I’m able to take breaks for walks, potty breaks, playtime and attention while continuing with my work. For longer stays, I can maintain a consistent routine around your dog’s normal feeding, walking and rest schedule. I offer services like dog walking, potty breaks, in- home visits/ care, doggy day care and even overnight stays. My home is spacious with a backyard and more than enough space for your dog to move around and there’s also a nice long walking trail close by as well as park. Your pet will be allowed full access around the house regardless of whether I am at home or not

I have my own vehicle to go to the off leash or trails. I follow the directions of the owner. Lots of pets and play, inside or outside. Leave the home as I found it. Love the animals as if they were my own.

“This was our first time having Taylor pup-sit, and we are so pleased! She was introduced to my pups a few days ago, and she quickly earned their trust. While checking in on them, she was very responsive to messages and sent us pictures. We'll be using her services again in the near future :)”
About: I have experience with all breeds (from havanese to pitbulls) and love working with puppies to reinforce the training you're doing or to give older dogs the love they deserve. I'm currently a master's student, single mom and working part time on call. I have a flexible schedule and can come and go as you need! I understand that each family has their own schedule for their pets so I'm always eager to learn yours and what your fur baby needs from me.
“Brooklyn was a great sitter for Foog. She was happy to accommodate meet and greet timings and multiple drop in’s for a day. She was quick to respond to all my questions and sent lots of photos throughout the day. I trust and recommend Brooklyn for your pup.”

Melina did a phenomenal job taking care of my 3 kitties! She gave me daily updates and photos and kept me informed on everything. I felt very comfortable and confident that she was taking the very best care of my babies, it felt like she truly cared for their wellbeing. Would recommend her to anyone!
Danielle was fantastic with our two senior doggies, including giving one of them insulin shots. She was kind and caring, on time, and always provided lots of photos and a report on how they were doing. Will definitely hire again, and recommend without hesitation.
Geet has looked over our sweet baby Hank twice now and both times has taken such good care of him. She followed our instructions exactly and sent us lots of updates with photos while we were away. Our boy is quite affectionate and often struggles when we go away but both times Geet has looked after him he's been in such a good mood when we came home and was clearly well taken care of the whole time. Would definitely recommend Geet if you need a sitter for your fur baby!
Erika took wonderful care of Snow while I was away for 6 weeks. She was communicative throughout, sending thoughtful updates along with brilliant photos and videos from her visits that genuinely helped me feel reassured. She was also very accommodating with any additional notes I added after I had already left. My cat Snow became very comfortable around Erika and looked forward to her visits. And seeing my cat relaxed, playful, and affectionate during visits made me really happy. I really appreciate the extra care and attention Erika gave to Snow’s routines and comfort. She was patient, thoughtful, and clearly cared about Snow’s wellbeing, not just completing the visit. I’m very grateful for all her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a remarkable sitter who is caring and reliable 😊
Kimberly took great care of my teenage German shepherd. He is a big dog with lots of energy and she had no problems managing him. I felt very comfortable knowing she was looking after him. She sent me lots of pictures and updates everyday she saw him, she played with him lots outside and he was always very happy when I got back home. I would definitely recommend Kimberly!

You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
