“Amaya was wonderful. She updated us frequently and kept our house clean and organized. She was reliable and honest which I have not had much luck with on this app. I will definitely rebook her.”
“Jylesha is Fantastic with my animals! She loves them, walks my dog, keeps my place so nice and is very responsive communicating and sending pics and vids. My animals love her! Ty Jylesha! ❤️”
“Courtney was fantastic with my GSD-mix, Raina! She was great at following my instructions to the letter while going above and beyond with providing updates and doing the little things for her. On top of that, Courtney is extremely respectful and well-mannered - she left my apartment looking spot less, and left the kindest note complimenting my pup (which means more than any compliment someone could give me). Thank you Courtney!”
“Dawn was incredible! We came home to two very happy, healthy, and well loved pups. I was unavailable to contact sometimes due to our trip and she was still very diligent in sending photos, videos, and updates! My larger pup has had some health scares and Dawn was very detailed in her notes and was willing to take her to the vet immediately upon a small change in behavior but waited for my input ☺️. I will definitely be reaching out to Dawn in the future for any of our needs. I’ve never felt so confident and comfortable in the care our dogs received. We got our honeymoon and our dogs got almost two weeks of spoiling! Not to mention that this was a last minute booking due to our other sitter canceling with less than a weeks notice for a 12 day trip!!”
About: I have experience with both dogs and cats! I am super flexible this summer! I am looking forward to meeting some new fur-friends! Please book me at least 2 days in advance! I am very flexible this summer besides a two week trip at the beginning of July! I am not working since I’m attending graduate school in the fall so I’ll be super available to hang out with your fur babies! I don’t offer house sitting at my house but I can stay over at yours! I will treat your space with respect and follow any instructions you have left to ensure the upkeep and cleanliness of your space!
“Harmony was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute after our original sitter canceled unexpectedly. From the start, she was sweet, attentive, and communicative. She took wonderful care of both our apartment and our pets, and we came home to happy animals and a spotless space. We did have a small misunderstanding—which was totally my fault 🤦🏽♀️—but Harmony handled it with grace and professionalism. I truly hope she’s open to sitting for us again in the future. Highly recommend her!”
“Mattea was wonderful with our dogs! Both of them can be quite anxious, but they warmed up to her so quickly. She clearly loves animals and spent plenty of quality time with them. We loved getting photo updates every day, which made us feel so happy knowing they were in such good hands. Mattea was a great communicator, left the house spotless, and we would absolutely book her again!”
“Booking with Lily was such a wonderful experience from start to finish. She is truly one of the most professional and communicative people I’ve ever worked with. She’s incredibly intelligent, thoughtful, and genuinely caring — not just with the dogs, but in every aspect of the house sit. Both of my dogs are on a special diet, and she handled their feeding instructions perfectly. That level of attention to detail is absolutely essential for us, and she delivered with total reliability and care. What truly surprised me, though, was how beautifully she took care of our home. In the past, I’ve often come back from trips feeling overwhelmed because the house needed cleaning after a sit — especially with dogs tracking in dirt. This time, I walked in and felt like the house had been professionally cleaned. It was such a gift to return to a calm, spotless space. I would highly recommend Lily without hesitation. If she’s available when we travel again, I will absolutely be booking her.”
“Kaelin did a wonderful job taking care of our house and two dogs for six days while we were out of town. She sent pictures daily and seemed to really enjoy her time with the dogs. I recommend her services wholeheartedly!”
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Isabel did an amazing job watching my dog for a week. He was so happy and I got a lot of updates during the week. She also took good care of our home and left it clean and spotless. Will definitely book her again.”
“Stacey took great care of our dog, Lexie. She sent a cute picture and updated us with messages. The house looked immaculate when we got home from vacation. We will definitely ask her to come another time.”
About: I have been petsitting and dog walking my neighborhood pets for several years and had the privilege to work as a research technician who helped in husbandry at UNC Chapel Hills Division of Comparative Medicine canine unit. I love making new furry friends and gaining experience to help my pre-veterinary journey as a college student! I am available every day of the week starting June 30th seeing that i am home for the summer from college. I am available during the hours of 8am-8pm and am interested in house sitting. I have a fenced yard for my dog to keep them from getting out and my cat is an inside cat who stay in the upstairs bedrooms
About: I have over 5 years of professional zookeeping experience, specifically working with animals ranging from cockroaches to fish to river otters (and more!). This has given me a lot of practice with patience, attention and observation when working with animals. I am skilled in noticing small changes in animals that may be a sign of something larger. I am a medical foster through the SPCA of Wake County, and I have a soft spot for animals with medical needs. I have experience giving medications in multiple methods, including by injection. I work full time 4 days per week (10 hour shifts) and receive my schedule over a month in advance. On work days, I am available after 4:30 pm. Weekends are generally best for individuals that need more structured time together. I value building relationships with animals on their terms, and am very adaptable to different needs. I have a lot of patience for animals who may need a little more time, and energy for the animals who want to be friends right away! Our pets are individuals, and I see the importance in treating them as such.
“Joan has stayed with our dog for a few trips! She keeps us updated when we are out of town with lots of photos! We always come home to an extremely clean house and a happy dog”
“Jimmy was an excellent dog sitter reliable, caring, and great with my dogs. He kept me updated while I was away, and I came home to a happy, well cared for dog and house Highly recommend!”
“Nathaniel did a great job taking care of our dog Sophia. He was a great communicator before and during his stay at our home. He sent us lots of updates and photos while we were gone. Our apartment was left impeccably clean after his stay. I would highly recommend Nathaniel as a dog sitter!”

I am so glad Sofia was available to take care of Kimchi while I was out of town for the weekend! She was great with sending pictures and keeping me updated. As soon as we met Sofia, Kimchi took a liking to her. Sofia had great communication with me during her stay and left my home in great shape. I would recommend her services and will be sure to book her again in the future!
Madison was amazing! She took great care of my two Golden Retrievers while I was out of town. It's always hard leaving my fur babies, but I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She sent pictures and kept me updated throughout my trip, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be booking with Madison again for my next trip!
Caroline was an absolute sweetheart! She took amazing care of our dogs and our home while we were away. She was very communicative throughout the entire stay, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind. We came home to happy dogs and a well-cared-for house. We truly appreciated her kindness, reliability, and attention to detail. We would happily book with Caroline again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
Madison stayed with my dog for 3 nights. She communicated well, sent photos and updates. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in good hands! She washed bedding and towels before she left and had the house in great shape as I left it. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs.
Franklin was amazing, my older dog is a "little" shy to say the least and Mr. Franklin was absolutely positively wonderful with him, got him to come out to play, to eat as well as just getting him out of his kennel. As normally he would just be sad and hide the entire time we are gone. Definitely will hope he is available for the next sitting position. Thank you Franklin!! 😇💙🙏🐶🎉🤝
First time leaving my pup with anyone other than family and I couldn't have chosen better than Autumn. She definitely relieved my anxiety over leaving my anxious dog. Autumn took great care of Sheyna, worked on her anxiety while taking her on walks, and sent me updates and pictures twice a day. She also left the house so clean you could hardly tell she'd been here. Sheyna's made a new friend and I've found an amazing sitter for her.
Dawn was absolutely wonderful. She stayed at my house with my two dogs and cat and took amazing care of them. She sent videos and pictures of each of them throughout the day, was able to give all the medications, and took amazing care of my home. It was great to be able to just relax on my trip and not have to worry about my fur babies and home.
Jordan was more than outstanding. It was the first time in a long time I was able to go on vacation without worrying. Complete transparency on a couple days he knew he’d be out for more than 4 hours, worked with me on a complicated schedule and most of all - PROMPT communication and tons of pics & videos. He went above and BEYOND for my puppy and I was really thankful and impressed by that alone. I would recommend him to anyone and I’m so so grateful I met and was able to trust someone to stay in my home while I was in another country. Thank you Jordan! The animals were clearly so well taken care of and more.
Highly recommend Helena! We have three cats, two of whom require medication for chronic illnesses, and Helena knows exactly how to get them to take their meds. She also gets my female cat to eat all her food, despite the fact that her appetite is waning due to kidney disease. We never worry about leaving our babies in Helena’s care — she’s a pro!
Kira is fantastic. She is super responsive & I trust her with my two big doodles! Kira watched my dogs for Memorial Day weekend and stayed at my house. She is responsible and trustworthy! Kira communicated her schedule for the weekend ahead of time and gave me a heads up so I’m aware of when she is at the house / needs to step out for other drop ins, which is so appreciated! She checked in everyday and gave me a summary of their day & provided photos. I didn’t think twice about the boys while on vacation, because I knew they were in good hands! Thank you so much!
