Amy was great cat sitting for our precious kitty! She sent lots of cute updates, which we appreciated so much and did a wonderful job medicating Savannah for the first time. We came home to a happy cat and a clean home. We are looking forward to booking with Amy again for all our cat sitting needs!

Andrew was great with Koji. He took good care of him, took him for walks, played with him & kept him entertained. Koji has some mobility issues and Andrew followed our directions carefully and kept Koji comfortable. He was also able to administer medications as needed. Will work with him again :)

Alice did a great job! I came home to a well cared for, tired pup - making my return that much smoother. Alice made sure to give my dog a loads of physical and mental exercise and sent loads of pictures.

Maisel is a fantastic sitter. My pup Charlie has a lot of anxiety and I am always nervous leaving him with someone new. Every picture I got Charlie was smiling - Maisel was great at communicating with me and gave me peace of mind that Charlie was well taken care of. She was extremely respectful of my home and left it spotless. I am so grateful she was able to help and will definitely be asking her to dog sit again!

Nathan was a fantastic house sitter! He did a great job with our big pit mix and cat. He gave the dog plenty of exercise and sent us plenty of pics while we were out of town! Our dog can also be a little standoffish but Nathan did a great job getting to know him and it wasn’t an issue at all. We came back to a clean house and two very happy boys. Would definitely recommend him to watch your animals and/or house. We’ll definitely have him back next time we’re out of town!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years through pet sitting for family and friends, and I also volunteered with a local animal shelter, where I took dogs on “doggy day trips” for walks and time outside the shelter. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and always aim to meet each dog where they are! I have a flexible work-from-home schedule, which allows me to offer reliable weekday care including morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, and overnight stays when needed. I focus on calm, consistent care that helps dogs feel safe and relaxed while keeping their routine in place. Outside of pet care, I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors through walking, hiking, and fitness classes! I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and provide regular updates so you always know how your dog is doing. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine since I work from home with a flexible schedule. This allows me to reliably offer morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening care during the weekdays, with some additional flexibility on weekends depending on availability. I’m looking to provide steady, dependable care that feels consistent and low-stress for both pets and their owners, rather than occasional or unpredictable bookings. I provide pet care in clients’ homes, focusing on keeping each pet comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. I follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any specific household guidelines. For dogs, I prioritize calm, structured walks with safe leash handling, along with attention, play, and bathroom breaks based on their usual routine. For cats, I provide quiet, respectful care including feeding, litter box cleaning, fresh water, and companionship based on each cat’s comfort level. I also make sure the home is secure while I’m there and send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and doing well!

Natalia was absolutely wonderful with Rosie, I could tell from the moment she met Rosie that she’ll be in great hands. Natalia house sitted Rosie at my apartment while I was traveling and left the place clean and tidy. She was very communicative, sent regular updates (photos and video) and made sure Rosie gets her regular walks and exercises. I will definitely book her again and can highly recommend her. She was thoughtful, very caring for Rosie and a great communicator. Rosie already misses her :)

Ana was a great caretaker for Rex and Lily! She provided daily photo updates and helped them stick to their usual routine while we were gone for a long weekend. Lily immediately clung to her during our meet and greet which is often unusual given her anxious nature. She was very respectful of our space and left everything nice and clean. We would happily rebook her in the future.

Madeleine was absolutely wonderful with Astro and Jasper! I highly recommend her. We consider our doggies to be part of our family and wanted them to be well cared for while we attended a dinner. Madeleine responded promptly to my request, was very attentive to care instructions and was so willing to help us even with it being a Saturday night. She greeted our furry friends with a smile, took excellent them and sent us pictures throughout the night. If you need care for your dogs, do not search for a sitter. Contact Maddy immediately. She is the best!

Julia was great. We had a quick meet and greet to go over Cosmo's usual routine prior to the sitting and she was super flexible with timing which was a huge help as we had to make a slight adjustment. Cosmo seemed to enjoy his time with her and we would certainly have her watch the little guy again.

Exceptional as always! Robbie took care of and spent great time with my sweet Atlas while I was out of the country for a week. Given the slight time difference, I explained when I would prefer to receive updates and Robbie took to that immediately--updates were given at the same time every day as expected and it gave me so much peace of mind while I was traveling. When I returned home late that evening, I was surprised the next day to find Robbie had already pre-prepped Atlas' meal for the day for me which was so thoughtful and lovely. Thank you so so so so SO much again Robbie! You're amazing!

Willow was an incredibly thoughtful, diligent and proactive dogsitter for my little mutt Martini! She went out of her way to come meet us first before the home stay so that she could learn about Martini’s quirks, preferences, and ensure that Martini felt super comfortable with her which she did right away! While I was away, Willow shared a ton of great updates about Martini and was super communicative about how everything was going and making sure I was totally in the loop with everything which was so comforting since I was in another country for a trip. I can tell Martini absolutely loved Willow as she cried and whimpered when she left, but we hope to have her come back and watch Martini again sometime soon!!! Would highly recommend if you are looking for a super professional, compassionate, responsible and loving sitter for your fur babies!!!

James was an excellent pet sitter and house sitter for us. He took amazing care of our dog and cat, to include over the July 4th weekend where our dog had significant fireworks anxiety. We got daily photos and videos, and its clear James really invested in engaging the animals in games and activities throughout his time caring for them. I think he even taught our dog some new tricks! Our home was returned even cleaner than he found it, which was unnecessarily kind of him. We hope to work with James again!

Haowen was very communicative and sent at least 10 photos a day, the most photos I’ve ever had from any sitter! He was upfront and honest when our dog had a little vomit from running around after eating too soon, and managed his multiple medications as a senior dog.
