“Lynn and her husband took wonderful care of our sweet dog while we were away on a family vacation. They treated her like one of their own, and it was clear she was happy, comfortable, and well loved. We especially appreciated the daily photos and updates, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and trustworthy dog sitters, and we will definitely be leaving our dog with them again in the future!”
“This was our first time booking Angela and Luis, and we had a great experience! We felt Felix was well cared for on his overnight stay. They were very responsive, we received pictures several times and updates on how he was doing. We got caught in a blizzard on the way home that made us late for pick-up, and they were very flexible and understanding.”
“Joyce was fantastic with my 2 pups! I have 2 two year old bichon poodle mix from the same litter and at times they can be a funny handful. My husband and I had another sitter cancel on us last minute and Joyce was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond with my boys. Joyce has great energy and I liked her right away and could tell my pups loved her too and that’s all I could ask for! She lives very close to me as well so it was also a very convenient drop off and pick up for us. I recommend Joyce and will definitely inquire if she’s available next time we are in need 😁☺️Thanks again Joyce!!!”
“We feel so lucky to have found Nora! She took wonderful care of Kobe over the long weekend while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Nora is caring, dedicated, and attentive to the little details. We especially appreciated that she asked thoughtful questions before giving Kobe treats or making decisions about his activities. Knowing she respected his diet and our instructions gave us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated with plenty of pictures, and we loved seeing Kobe enjoying his walks, getting cuddles, and even being her little gardening assistant! He came home happy and very relaxed, which says a lot about how comfortable he felt with her. We would absolutely book with Nora again whenever she’s available and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will really care for their dog. Thank you, Nora, for making Kobe’s stay so enjoyable and allowing us to enjoy our weekend without worrying!”
“Brittany was absolutely amazing! Mocha had such a wonderful stay with her and came home happy and relaxed. Brittany sent us photos of Mocha every day and took him on a walk daily, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She took such great care of him, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Mocha would absolutely love to stay with her again!”
“Adlynn and her family, two doggies and partner, did an outstanding job of caring for my dog. He was very nervous and not used to being away from me. Adlynn was able to gradually get him to feel safe and he really enjoyed the rest of the time there. I would highly recommend!”
About: I genuinely love caring for pets, especially dogs and cats. I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who understands that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I will treat your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I am happy to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medication routines, and other special needs. I will also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable while you are away. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I have classes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, but I have a flexible schedule around my classes. I am available for pet care on other days and weekends. I provide a safe, clean, calm, and caring environment for every pet. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, keep pets supervised, respect their routines, and communicate regularly with updates.
“Takes good care of pet. However, it is good note that she seems to take care of other dogs at the same time as far as I could ascertain … also, she has a very friendly golden retriever, which is good. My main tip to her is that she should take more videos and photos throughout the day of the babysat dog and interactions with her other dogs. Regardless of all the points mentioned above, the service isgenerally high quality. We would book her again.”
“She did a great job taking care of River! She kept me updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. River came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily leave River with her again!”
“Mohiny & Lucas O. were the best puppy sitters ever!! We met for a meet and greet and connected with them right away - we just knew they would take exceptional care of our pet. Their genuine love of animals was evident from the start. Our pet was very happy with them and enjoyed all the walks she took with Mohiny & Lucas O. Mohiny & Lucas O. sent us lots of pictures of our pet in action and kept us very well informed about how she was eating, resting, and playing throughout her time with them. We would happily have them look after our pet anytime knowing that she will be very well cared for and loved. Thank you, Mohiny & Lucas!!”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and people in my community. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, keeping pets company, and following each dog’s individual routine and needs. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate different pet-care needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and boarding depending on the dates and care required. I’m happy to work with each pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I live in a clean, comfortable apartment and I’m home for most of the day, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. I don’t have any pets or children in my home, creating a calm environment that can be especially comfortable for puppies. I also live very close to a dog park and enjoy giving dogs plenty of opportunities for exercise and outdoor time, when appropriate and with the owner’s approval. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care instructions closely and keep you updated with photos and messages while they’re in my care.
About: I've house-sitted while taking care of different kinds of dogs large and tiny, I've administered medicine for guinea pigs dogs and cats, I have clipped cat nails for my own and other people's cats, I have experience training my own dogs and other people's dogs which i love to do! I have taken care of my own animals such as guinea pigs, lizards, hamsters, dogs and cats. I currently am unemployed and am in school online with much flexibility, I live with my mother and sister, and home life is very quiet, im home almost all hours of the day. I have a cat who doesn't like other animals but she goes to the basement when she needs to without issues (she loves it down there) I do have a pretty small backyard, I have a big deck and grass. My backyard is fenced in. My house is small but safe!
About: I have a dog and two cats and they are my children. I love to play with pets (including frisbee throwing, catch, tug of war). I love to go for long walks outside and don’t mind walking for long periods of time. I also like to hike and go in forests. I believe that animals are very capable of communication and pay special attention to what they are trying to tell me. I focus on body language. I also make sure to always check the weather before taking pets outside of the house and make sure that I bring the appropriate care items along (such as water bottles, sweaters, poop bags). I am very punctual and tend to be early to appointments. I am reliable and rarely am sick. I look forward to meeting you and your animal companions! I work a full time job, but get holidays and the summer off. I also get all weekends off and love to stay busy. I am available for check-ins and walks in the afternoons/evenings and on the weekends. I have a fenced yard and my dog loves all other animals. I follow all requests made by the owner and communicate as much as possible.

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Noor! She watched Timbit for a week and he felt completely at home and comfortable with her. Noor went above and beyond by keeping us updated with regular messages and photos which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. She kept up his routine with regular walks and gave him all the love, cuddles and attention. If you are looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive, we would definitely recommend Noor. Thank you for taking such good care of Timbit!

Such a great first experience using a dog sitter for the first time! They made me feel completely at ease, and the photo updates were perfect. I could tell right away that Chapo was happy and comfortable & appreciated the meet and greet ahead of the booking. Thank you both for welcoming him into your home and taking such great care of him! We will definitely be back! 🐾❤️
She did a great job taking care of River! She kept me updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. River came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily leave River with her again!
Sadie was absolutely amazing! She took care of Bentley this weekend like he was her own. She didn't just watch him—she kept him entertained, gave him so much love, and made sure he felt completely at home. It gave me total peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. I cannot recommend Sadie enough and will definitely be asking her to watch Bentley again! 🐾❤️
I couldn’t have been happier with Sully’s stay! Leslie and her husband were both so kind and took such wonderful care of him, which made leaving my little guy for the week so much easier. I really appreciated the updates and could tell Sully was happy, comfortable and very well loved while he was there. I’m so grateful to have found them and would absolutely leave Sully with them again! 🤍
Absolutely wonderful experience! She looked after my 8-month-old Pug/Bulldog mix for four days and did an amazing job. He came home happy, healthy, and clearly very well cared for. Being a young pup in a new environment, he decided to mark his territory when he first arrived 🙈, and she handled it with patience and understanding. She kept me updated throughout his stay with pictures and always reached out with any questions or concerns. I really appreciated the communication and knowing he was in good hands. It was obvious she genuinely cared about him and his wellbeing. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a patient, caring, and reliable dog sitter!
Shelby did an excellent job boarding my dog, London, from Saturday to Sunday. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly comfortable handling dogs, which made the whole experience stress-free for me and London. Shelby sent timely updates and was easy to reach by text, so I always knew how London was doing, and he seemed relaxed and happy both during drop-off and pick-up—a good sign he was well looked after. Drop-off and pick-up times were respected, everything went smoothly with no issues, and I’d absolutely book Shelby again for weekend boarding and recommend her to other dog owners in London looking for trustworthy care.
Susan took amazing care of my dog, Alphie, for three days. She was very responsive and sent regular photo updates, which gave me great peace of mind. Alfie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I really appreciated her kindness and professionalism, and I’d absolutely love to send Alfie to Susan again. Highly recommend. Thank you, Susan!“🐾
Vrutika was very responsive before and during Lily's visit! She was so patient, caring, and treated Lily as if she was her own. We were very satisfied with Vrutika's flexibility and once I was running later than expected to pick up Lily, she offered to drive us home and kindly adjusted the booking to reflect this. We will definitely use her services again!
Alfred had a great time at Bradley’s!! He is a lovely safe spot for my son! Alfred is reactive and a lot for some to deal with but Bradley does a great job dealing with Alfred’s energy and needs while communicating with us the whole time! Due to Alfred’s large size (140lbs) and the fact that he’s not neutered it can be challenging to find someone that can handle him and Bradley does an excellent job! Thank you so much for watching our baby!!
