“Konnie did an absolutely amazing job watching our dog and two cats while we were out of town!!! I got updates and photos while she was watching them and even put up with all my little requests. I think my house may have been more put together after she left than it was when she got there. We will 100% be using her again when we have to leave town. I cannot recommend her highly enough. THANK YOU KONNIE ?”

“Lori and Daisy had a great time! Lori kept me informed while I was away with sweet photos and texts. My apartment was in great shape upon my arrival home. Bed linens washed and replaced, kitchen cleaned up and all dishes put away. I will definitely ask Lori to stay with Daisy in the future! 😊”

“Audrey was great with our dogs, they loved her hanging out and playing with them. The check in pictures put me at ease they were in good hands. Will book again with Audrey.”

“Frank was great, and took wonderful care of our dog Luke. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter. We will be using Frank for all of our future sitting needs.”

“This was a last minute booking that Tara was quick to respond to and set up a meet/greet for. I was very nervous to leave the dogs as we just recently rescued one with severe trauma/fear and another one healing from a recent surgery and still getting used to having his new brother in the house. I knew they needed someone very attentive and knowledgeable—Tara was just that and beyond! We had a slight issue that we did not anticipate with our rescue doggie and Tara was quick to inform us and navigate the issue to ensure both our dogs were happy and healthy in her care!”

“We highly recommend Owen as a sitter. This was our first time using the app and he was super easy to work with, responded quickly to messages, and took great care of our puppy! He kept us updated and sent photos. Our puppy had a great time!”

“I was thrilled to find such an attentive, caring sitter for Chi-Chi. Patience is quick to provide updates on Chi-Chi's day with great photos and videos. I know Chi-Chi was happy and in great care.”

“Thank you so much for staying with my girl while I was out of town! I couldn't be happier with how well my pup was cared for. She sent pictures regularly throughout the day and kept me informed of how my pup was doing. 100% would recommend to anyone for any critter.”

“It was such a relief to have Aidan caring for my dogs at my house while I was gone on my 8 day vacation. My pups are 14 and 11 years old and have special dietary and medical needs and he was able to keep them well fed, medicated and happy! This was the first time in their whole lives that I didn't have friends or family available to watch them, but I didn't have to worry as Aidan sent pictures and kept me up to date on how things were going. If I am in this situation again Aidan will be the first person I reach out to!”

“Sauddi was absolutely amazing! It took no time at all for my 2 dogs to warm up to her. She is loving, kind and knows how to provide an exciting time for the dogs. She provided pictures and updates daily. She took excellent care of the house. We will certainly use her again. Highly recommend Sauddi.”

“What an absolute pleasure it was to have our dogs loved and cared for while we traveled. Breyeanna gave us frequent updates and sent wonderful photos. Our dogs are not friendly with strangers and Breyeanna became family to them. We were thrilled with the outcome. Thank you so much for caring for our dogs.”

“Julie was awesome! She saved us from having to cancel our vacation. 2 days before our trip, our 60lb Boxer showed symptoms of kennel cough which meant we could not board him ?. With no back up plan, we were frantic to book someone to stay in our home overnight with our dog. After reaching out to a dozen or so people, Julie was prompt to respond and let us know about other obligations she committed to during those dates. We worked out a flexible schedule and did a meet and greet the same day. We booked her the same day! She was comfortable with our dog’s illness, medication and behavioral needs. She communicated daily about our dogs symptoms and assured us of any problems. Her Vet Tech background helped us relax on vacation. We were so lucky to find her and we will definitely use her in the future. Thank you again Julie for taking care of our pup!”

“Erin was fabulous with my 2 cats. She tooks lots of pictures of them to share with me. I could see that my boys were very happy and in great hands with Erin. I will definitely be reaching out to Erin again.”

About: I’m available for round-the-clock care this summer! I am a music teacher during the school year but I love taking care of animals as well. I can care for any type of animal, I’m always down to learn about new and interesting pets too! I’m available almost 24/7 this summer since I’m a teacher and have summers off. I’m hoping to get plenty of walks in not only for the animals but also myself! I am able to provide consistent care around the clock if needed. I can follow directions for feeding, medication administration, and bathroom needs. I love walking dogs and hanging out with cats!

“We can't say enough about Nicole's caring service and communication throughout the 4 days she watched our dog. She arrived on time, took care of everything as specified (including plants), sent pics and videos, and left the house cleaner than when we left. We haven't hired anyone to watch our 60-lb lab mix before, as we just moved to Cuyahoga Falls and we don't have family here to pitch in to help with the pooch. We were squeamish about having a new person watch him, but Nicole put our minds at ease. I will definitely hire her again!”

Brittani was fantastic! She has excellent communication and sends plenty of pics. I was nervous leaving my dog, he’s older and just likes attention, I could tell he was in good hands and she kept me updated on how he was doing. Will definitely be asking for her help again and again!

Recently I had Mary board my Yorkie Gizmo and as always he was taken care of beyond words! He is always given great care love and attention so he doesn't feel like he truly misses us no matter how long we may be gone and I never worry about him while I am gone !

Mallery was so amazing watching our pets! She watched our dog, Bash, for 11 days in our home and we also had two cats that she loved on and gave lots of attention to as well. She took great care of our home and brought our mail in for us which was so nice! We got updates on the pets while we were gone and when we got home, everyone was happy and healthy and our house was so clean too! Mallery was really amazing and we felt so at ease while we were on vacation knowing she was taking great care of our fur babies. We will definitely have Mallery watch our pets again in the future!!

Daleen was absolutely an answer to my prayers! I've never left any of my pets in the care of anyone but family so this was a huge step out of my comfort zone. Then I met Daleen! She was amazing! She sent pictures and encouraging words and when I got home it was if no one had even been in my house.....spotless! She left behind an encouraging message as well. So thoughtful. So kind. I was able to enjoy my time away without a single worry. Truly blessed. 🥰

Lillian was fantastic! She came over twice before booking, at my request, to get familiar with my 2 dogs. We had an unexpected illness in my dog and she was able to give him his medication while we were on vacation. We came home last night to 2 happy dogs, house in order, and pee pads washed!

Sabrina was great with our dogs! She made sure to take the time out of her day to meet prior to ensure that the pups were comfortable with her. She was very easy to communicate with even when we needed to book with her last minute. Definitely book with her! Thanks again!
