Kimberly was incredibly responsible and communicative. Emmy (my siamese mutt) is an excellent judge of character and when I arrived home she was in excellent spirits, having obviously received a tremendous amount of attention and love. I will absolutely be working with Kimberly again, and I would encourage you to do the same -- she's terrific!

CJ did a fantastic job of caring for Mochi! It was clear how much Mochi loved him from the very beginning, and I think this was a little like doggy summer camp—Mochi was very happy and comfortable, even with us away. CJ sent terrific updates twice a day and was responsive if I checked in and conscientious about Mochi’’s food, exercise and schedule. It was wonderful to be able to relax and know Mochi was so well cared for and so happy and to see ample proof of this in the shared photos and videos. The house was also clean and orderly when we came home. CJ clearly took care of it, as if it were his own. I will definitely be asking CJ to stay with Mochi whenever we’re out of town or need a sitter. His warmth and love of dogs is evident, and his professionalism is first rate.

About: I am a relative new comer but I make up for this with lots of time and great soul. I wish to become part of the pet-ite bourgeoisie I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm mostly available for all days of the week now that summer is in! Unfortunately, I can't bring animals over to my home without permission but I can stay and take care of animals at your place for a long while

About: We’re an animal-loving couple with plenty of experience pet sitting through various platforms, caring for both dogs and cats. Over the years, we’ve looked after pets of all sizes and personalities from playful puppies to shy and absolutely loved every moment of it. Walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles are guaranteed! At the moment our rental apartment does not allow pets so unfortunately we can’t host. But we are offering to take care of your dogs and/or cats at your place as long as they are vaccinated. I’m at home most of the day right now, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I follow a very structured daily schedule, which makes it easy to provide consistent feeding times, plenty of walks, and constant company for a pet. I provide a highly structured and attentive environment where a pet’s routine is the priority. Will follow your pets routine precisely; maintaining strict feeding, exercise, and medication schedules.

Ghazal stayed at our house to take care of our dog and two cats for 10 days. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Our very shy cat warmed to her almost immediately. Gahzal was very responsible and caring. She took the time to replenish the bird feeders in the backyard so even the wild life was happy!

Katie was absolutely fantastic—we couldn’t have asked for a better first experience with a new sitter. She went above and beyond from the very beginning, taking the time to do a thorough meet-and-greet and really listening to all the details about Tiger—his quirks, schedule, and medication routine. It was clear she was not only attentive but genuinely thoughtful in how she approached his care. During her stay, Katie was incredibly communicative and reliable. She followed all of our instructions perfectly while also incorporating some of her own training techniques—and we actually noticed positive improvements in Tiger after just four days, which was amazing to see. She also treated our home with so much care, leaving everything in pristine condition. She even went the extra mile by taking out the trash and starting laundry, which we truly appreciated. This was hands down one of the best experiences we’ve had with a first-time sitter, and we’re so excited to continue working with Katie. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and thoughtful dog sitter!

About: What sets me apart is that I don’t believe in one size fits all pet care. I’ve raised my high-energy Husky, Zafiro, since she was a baby, which taught me firsthand the importance of patience, structure, exercise, and consistency,especially for puppies and active breeds. I’ve also raised my cat Rambo from a kitten, giving me a deep understanding of feline personalities and care, from playful to independent. From zoomy puppies to chill seniors, tiny fluffballs to big personalities, I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, energy levels, and special needs. Every pet is different, and I love learning what makes each one feel safe, loved, and confident. I care for every pet like they’re my own—because to me, they’re family and deserve nothing less. My schedule is super pet-friendly! I don’t start work until 10am, so mornings are perfect for walks or feedings. Lunch is flexible, so midday potty breaks are easy, and I’m free on weekends too. With my Husky Zafiro, I’m used to morning, afternoon, and evening walks and feedings—keeping your pet’s routine happy and on track is no problem! 1 Dog husky, 1 Cat. I make pets feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. I keep them on their usual routine, so they stay comfortable and stress-free. Your furry friend can enjoy an extra crate, plenty of toys, and a private patio to relax, plus all the cuddles and attention they deserve.

Stephanie stayed at our house with our two cats during a holiday week. She was beyond fantastic! Throughout the week, she sent us adorable snapshots and videos and kept us in the loop about their funny shenanigans. She also made easy work of a complicated refrigerated auto-feeder setup we have one of our cats on. We returned to a spotless home! Our two cats were not just cared for but clearly loved. Stephanie's competence and warmth made our vacation worry-free. Couldn’t more highly recommend!

Holly took care of our goldendoodle for a weekend. She was very responsive and we appreciated the photos and updates from her. Our dog sometimes doesn’t want to eat his food when we’re away. Holly put in extra effort into making sure that our dog ate his meals, for which we’re very grateful. The house was just as we had left it. We’re very happy with the experience and would love to book her again.

From first introduction to yesterday's assignment, Stephen was a 5-star performer and a pet's best friend! Highly recommend Stephen if you're looking for a dog and pet savvy person who's responsible, caring, and detail-oriented... and one who adores dogs and dogs (at least mine) adore right back. Stephen's care meant my dog got a "spa day" rather than a dull day... walks, treats, sunshine naps, and ear scritches all included.

Kimberly was absolutely amazing! we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, and her personality really shines through, she’s warm, funny, and genuinely kind. It’s clear how much she truly cares about the dogs. Roku and Toki were so well loved and cared for, and she went above and beyond not just with them but with our home too. She even rolled out the trash for us, which was such a thoughtful touch. Roku can be a bit difficult on walks and tends to pull, but Kimberly handled him so patiently and confidently. That really meant a lot to us knowing he was in capable hands. We would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone attentive, responsible, and genuinely caring.
