“Avita took great care of my two cats and even spent extra time with them while I was gone on a longer trip. She made both the kitties and myself feel completely at ease. By the end of the trip, they were her new best friends—curling up on her chest and giving her kisses, which is a massive compliment from my cats! She also took special care of my plants. She is thoughtful, kind, highly responsive, and so easy to work with. I would recommend her to anyone!”

But she even got him to eat a little bit! She took him on daily walks and got him out and about. Thank you Rachel for taking great care of him for us!”

About: What sets me apart is my mix of hands-on experience and medical knowledge. I’ve been dogsitting for 7 years, volunteered at animal shelters on and off for the past 4 years, and worked at a dog boarding facility and as a doggy day care attendant for about 1 year. I currently work as a vet assistant at an emergency clinic with almost 2.5 years of veterinary experience. I’m trained to spot early signs of pain, stress, or illness, stay calm in stressful situations, and handle medications and special needs. My biology degree with a psychology minor also helps me understand dog behavior, so I can read body language and help anxious or shy dogs feel safe. Owners can count on me for reliable updates and attentive care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’ve dogsat for 7 years and work as a full time vet assistant at an ER clinic, so my schedule is consistent. I work 7am-7pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, plus a couple of rotating weekend shifts each pay period. I’m available on Mondays, Thursdays, and most weekends, and I can confirm exact dates in advance. I treat every pet like my own and every home with respect. I follow the owner’s instructions on feeding, medications, routines, and house rules, and I keep dogs safe, comfortable, and on their normal schedule. I’m trained to notice signs of stress, pain, or illness, and I’ll update owners with photos and messages during the visit. I always leave the home clean and secure.

Hisham was a great house sitter,he stayed at my house and took care of my dog and three cats. His communication was excellent, I received daily photos of the pets. He walked my dog every day and snuggled the cats a lot. He was very responsible, and one of the best things was before we got home he not only stripped the bed but washed the sheets and re-put them on, and vacuumed the house! Very impressive, will be using him again for sure.

Spencer came and watched my two year-old golden retriever, Pumbaa, for a very short notice work trip. Spencer came and met me and on the same day I requested to book with him, and he was super thoughtful with questions ahead of time to ensure he was set for success for watching my dog. During our booking, Spencer was extremely communicative and thorough with updates. We only moved the Areiux about six weeks ago, so my dog is still learning his surroundings, but Spencer was very patient with him. Spencer also left the place in great shape for me when I returned, including stripping the sheets and washing them, tidying the place up, and staying a couple of extra hours to make sure Pumbaa was set before I return from my flight back. Highly recommend Spencer in the future, thank you again Spencer for making a short notice trip feel so easy!

Amanda was excellent! She came over prior to our trip to meet our dogs and go over all of the details. Everything was neat and clean when we got home. She started the dishwasher and washed the bedding and towels, which I did not expect. That was nice after getting home from a long travel day. She was very communicative and sent updates while we were gone. We will definitely use Amanda again!

Kessa loved on our fur kids while we were away. It was so nice to know that they were happy, had someone around, and cared for. She sent so many photos and we loved it! She also asked questions about info that we did not make clear (or set up correctly), which was great! We would definitely book with Kessa again!

We really lucked out finding Amy! She accommodated our last-minute request and immediately put us at ease with her understanding of Milo’s reactivity and his individual needs. She took wonderful care of him and left our house clean and well-maintained. The sweet “welcome back” note and homemade gift she left were such a thoughtful touch! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable dog sitter. We’d absolutely book with her again!

Divya stayed at my house with Loon for 2 days. She was wonderful, knowledegable, communicative, and very organized with logistics! We went on a walk for a meet & greet and Divya handled my 90-lbs dog extremely well, she was able to anticipate and pre-empt any moves Loon might have made. She left the house in great condition and Loon was peacefully snoozing when I arrived back at home. I would 100% work with her again!

Tay took great care of Rosie, a 9 month rescue coonhound. Rosie is high energy and needs frequent walks and constant attention. Rosie also has some resource guarding and other challenges. Rosie responded very well to Tay :) And thank you to Tay for the photos, videos, and communications that reassured us that all was well. Our family would love to interact with Tay again in the future.

Bonnie is always terrific with our sensitive and people-wary pup! Frankie adores them, which is a testament to how well they respect her boundaries and give her the patience she needs. On top of that, Bonnie is communicative and super flexible when we’ve had some last minute changes with our booking due to flight changes or other unforeseen circumstances. We adore them as much as Frankie does!
