“Katherine was communicative and kind in caring for my sweet pup while I was out of town. She checked in frequently and I would definitely recommend her for housesitting again.”
“Noel did a great job staying at our house watching our chocolate lab! She is responsive whenever we checked in and also sent us proactive messages. Our dog loved the time with her! Highly recommend!”
“Susan was wonderful! She was promptly on time and took out my puppy out often and followed my long list of instructions. She sent many pictures and updates. I recommend her as a sitter”
“Isabelle was AMAZING with my animals which was proven through many photos of my animals always by her side and following her around (even my cat who is scared of people)! I would highly recommend her.”
“Sriya was amazing. This was our first time having someone stay at our home to watch our dogs which was something we were very nervous about. When we set up a meet & greet, she came to meet us at a park and the dogs had an instant connection with her and took detailed notes. While we were away, she sent tons of great pictures and over communicated with us to make sure we knew everything was going well. One of our dogs requires medicine twice a day and she had no problems with this. She took the dogs on walks 2-3 times a day which was more than we asked her to do. When we got home, it was just as we left it and she even removed the sheets and towels from her bed and bathroom and offered to start a load of laundry for us. We will definitely be requesting her to watch our pups again on the future. Highly recommend.”
“Ashley did a great job with my young puppy. She was attentive to him, followed his schedule, and was very communicative. She was very helpful with continuing his food transition and providing some medications. I would definitely recommend her and would work with her again!”
“Maya took excellent care of our two dogs and home while we were away! Both of our dogs require some specific care and medications, and Maya made sure that they were well taken care of and comfortable while we were away. Would not hesitate to rebook with her again in the future!”
“Fantastic! The dogs loved Casey and her husband. We received many updates with pictures sharing what the pups were up to. They took great care of our babies and our house while we were away. Will definitely reach out again in the future 🫶”
“Rhiannon was very responsive and a great sitter for our two kitties! We came back from vacation to a spotless house and two happy cats. Would absolutely recommend Rhiannon!”
“Courtney was AMAZING!! So sweet and made my husband and I feel so comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. We could tell they were happy and well taken care of, and our house was so clean when I came home! Courtney goes above and beyond and I’m so thankful for her!! Will definitely book again 😊”
“Abrielle stayed in my home with my dog Bentley while I was out of town. Bentley has a hard time trusting strangers and he felt very comfortable in her presence. Abrielle took incredible care of Bentley and was always available to communicate with me. I am so happy to have found someone that I can trust with my best little buddy.”
“We ABSOLUTELY think Zainab is the best!!! After multiple dog sitter fails….we finally found Zainab. She is patient with both girls (one who is excitable and the other who forever worried), followed their routine, took time to play/walk, gave medications, and took great care of my home. Knowing they are in good hands allows me to be away with peace of mind.”
“Excellent job done by Janice. Her communication was excellent — she supplied frequent photos, and went out of her way to accommodate my special requests. Will 100% use her again. The apartment was left in better shape than before.”
“We had Mabel watch our two shitzu’s while we went on a European vacation. Mabel did an excellent job and made sure to keep us updated. I would definitely use her again and recommend her services to others”
About: I've been caring for pets since I was 10 years old, starting with family, friends, and neighbors, and continuing all through college. Whether it was daily walks, overnight stays, or just keeping pets company while their owners were away, I’ve always loved being around animals. Pet sitting has been a consistent part of my life, and now I’m excited to get back into it because spending time with pets brings me genuine joy. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own because they deserve nothing less! Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. I work full-time but have the flexibility of working from home most days, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention to pets throughout the day. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays, I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to have a dependable sitter, and I’m committed to making sure your pets are well cared for! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a calm, familiar environment where your pet feels safe and comfortable. I follow your care instructions closely whether that includes feeding routines, walks, playtime, medication. I keep things tidy, including cleaning up after meals and litter boxes, and I always respect your home as if it were my own. I also send regular updates and photos, so you can stay connected and feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“DaNesha was great with my animals. She communicated clearly, was transparent and honest while we worked out scheduling details, and followed through with everything discussed. She kept me updated along the way and my animals were happy when I returned. We will hire DaNesha again without hesitation.”
About: I have had four different dogs four different cats. My oldest cat is 15 years of age. I’ve always been redeemed as the animal whisperer. I love every animal for godly of how small or big they are. I have always been the one to take care of families pets, or my friends pets and even my neighbors! I just moved to North Carolina from Connecticut and if I’m gonna do any job until I find a career, it’s going to be taking care of animals! Sharp objects and small objects are always out of reach, I have a Rhodesian that puts everything in her mouth like a toddler so I have learned to keep everything tedious and out of mouth reach! Dogs are welcome on furniture and in every room!! They are free to roam as pleased with supervision, we also have a dog park on property!

Noel is fantastic! Our nervous dog, Sofie, warmed up to her so quickly and we feel super confident knowing Sofie’s care is in Noel’s hands. Her experience caring for nervous, reactive dogs gives us tons of peace of mind. Noel always makes sure to send photos and updates during her stay, and she is a lovely house guest. Can’t recommend her highly enough!
Courtney was fantastic while taking care of our three doggos! We were so grateful to receive pictures and updates, and we came home to a clean house and happy pups! We would definitely recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a new best friend for their dogs.
Aqsa has stayed with my dog, Riggins, twice now, and both times she really helped ease my mind about being away! She is very communicative and flexible with start and end times - she also made sure to let me know when she would need to step away for other obligations. I got lots of photos and updates throughout the stay, and I could tell he was having a blast (HUGE deal for a dog with separation anxiety!). Riggins cannot wait to see her again!
Hailee was great with all of our pets, 3 dogs, 2 guinea pigs and a pair of birds. She followed all the instructions with the care of our diabetic dog and her insulin shots. Our house was just as we left it and Hailee went above and beyond to make sure we had nothing to worry about. We will definitely be welcoming Hailee again.
Morgan provided amazing housesitting and cat care while we were gone. She is very caring and communicative and made sure my two cats were very well taken care of with food, water, and lots of attention. She even helped my very skittish cat feel comfortable. Morgan is reliable and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!
