“Victoria was great with our dog, Tally. Sent us daily updates. Very responsible. We felt assured that our buddy was in great care. Highly recommend”


“Amy was absolutely amazing. She stayed with my two dogs for a week in my home. My dogs are wary of strangers and can be a bit finicky as a result (extra chatty, Velcro-dog syndrome at times), and Amy took it all in stride. She was a good communicator that provided regular updates, and my dogs were very obviously happy with her being there. Will absolutely book Amy again!”


“Stephanie was phenomenal in a longer house sit with our dog, Millie! She gave us frequent updates during our trip which helped give us peace of mind and went above and beyond to play with and entertain her. Before our trip, Stephanie did multiple walks to help get Millie comfortable with her and she was great dealing with her reactivity. Millie was clearly well taken care of and our place was absolutely sparkling. I would not hesitate to book Stephanie again, she is incredible!”


“Anastasia is a regular dog walker for us and recently stayed with our pup while we were away for the weekend. Our dog is clearly very comfortable with her and she always does a great job caring for him and paying attention to Ira’s need and idiosyncracies!”


“K is fantastic! They communicated proactively and took plenty of pictures while I was away. I came home to a very happy and well cared for puppy”


“Angie is the best ever!! Not only is she amazing with my puppy, but she also takes the best care of my space and I come home to a well taken care of pup and a spotless apartment! She also constantly keeps me updated throughout her stay which is amazing :)”

“Rachael take great care of our dog and home while we were away! We appreciated coming home to a happy dog and clean home. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”


“Absolutely fantastic! My dog became ill, and Tam was totally on top of it, responsible, sent frequent updates and photos. She did everything to make me feel assured Hudson was okay. Would work with her again in a heartbeat!”


“Shalese is amazing! She made me feel super comfortable leaving my reactive dog for a few days and they got along so well! Will definitely book any time I need someone to watch my girl.”


“Justin took very good care of Mowgli, they bonded very well. He followed all the instructions and more. We plan to have him as the go-to house sitter and walker for Mowgli.”


“Emma was great! She was very communicative (and quick to respond) and followed all my instructions. I can tell my pup had a great time with her and i will definitely add her into my rotation of sitters”


“Mary did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs and apartment while we were out of town! She was very communicative and stayed on top of the details. Our two dogs clearly bonded with her. We are planning to book with her again for our next trip!”


“What can I say? Rosie is an EXCELLENT sitter!! She came to stay with our cat Keani while we went away for 8 days. First of all, she is SO good with our cat who tends to be a little cautious. They became friends right away. She sent photos everyday and I was so happy to see my furbaby looking relaxed and happy 😊 Second, there was a SITUATION in our place while we were away - a situation which was not so pleasant for sure for some people. Rosie contacted me right away and proactively dealt with the situation with my landlord. While all that was happening, she made sure that our cat was safe and happy. We came home and EVERYTHING WAS SO CLEAN! Our cat was happy to see us but not like distressed or upset. We are so thankful for her 🙏✨ I can’t say enough good things about Rosie!”


“Vanessa house sat for our dog and did a wonderful job. She was attentive to detail to ensure he had all of his usual comforts. She was flexible and able to accommodate our schedule when it changed, and she provided us with regular updates throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend!”


“Elizabeth was great with my dog and with communication, including arrival timing and care instructions. When I returned home, my anxious little dog showed no signs of having been distressed, had the zoomies, and it was clear that she trusted Elizabeth and had a good time. Elizabeth praised her with the provided treats when my pup was good, which I really appreciated because it helps her know that it’s okay to relax when I’m away.”


“Adrianne stayed with my old dog for an entire week while I was away. She was a calm and nurturing presence for my dog, and was kind and thoughtful in her attentions to him. She had to close up the house and deliver Poe to a different dogsitter, and did all the closing up tasks perfectly, plus she left the house in great shape. She worked from my home during the day so she could stay with my dog all day. I would call on Adrianne again in a heartbeat. You'd be lucky to have her petsit for you! Great job, Adrianne!”


About: I've had cats since I was very young, so I'm very familiar with cat behavior. I'm comfortable providing enrichment, feeding, keeping the litter box clean, etc. I'm also experienced with guinea pigs. I helped care for an elderly guinea pig who was blind with arthritis, which required regular medication. I'm familiar with keeping cages clean, feeding, etc. For cat sitting, I usually stop by either in the morning or evening at approximately the same time for the duration of the trip. I'll make sure that they're fed, the litter box is scooped, and provide some enrichment time. For guinea pigs, I prefer to board them at my home since they require regular fresh vegetables at least twice a day. For guinea pigs, I prefer to board them at my home since they require regular fresh vegetables at least twice a day. I'll usually feed in the morning and evening. For cats, since they tend to take time to adjust to new places, I prefer to keep them at their home and either visit 1-2x per day or housesit.

“Leigh was absolutely wonderful with our old girl! We will definitely be using her again for any future needs. Our girl had a great time and Leigh followed all of our instructions as our old girl does have some needs. Thank you so much Leigh!!”


“Kathryn was great! This is the first time that we have used Rover. We had an event and we could not bring our dog, Lulu. Kathryn arrived on time, kept our anxiety prone dog calm, and took her for a walk, too. I would definitely hire Kathryn, again. Thank you very much.”
