Anna was a phenomenal sitter and took excellent care of my four senior dogs. She was kind and attentive, sending periodic updates while I was away. I will be using her services again in the future, and I highly recommend her to others for house/dog sitting.

Nick did an excellent job as always! We can tell our dog was happy to have him watch, and we know Nick went beyond our asks to keep our dog happy and entertained while we were away. We will absolutely book again!

About: I work at Central Bark Rochester and have hours of volunteering, education, and hard work in canine care and training. My training and learning continues by the day. Im well versed in many different care/training practices and can adjust to each dog's individual needs well. Not only do I value the desires of pet parent's, but the feelings and consent of their furry friends. I work part time and have availability in the mornings, evenings, and weekends! Afternoons vary. I aim for longer sessions to fill the mornings and shorter in the evenings. I am willing to unlock/lock or enter codes to maintain home safety. I am comfortable crating dogs, keeping them seperate from other animals, and working with reactive individuals (see bottom for details). I am also comfortable cleaning up after pets in or outside the house aswell as administering first aid and medications.

Alison was a very attentive and communicative sitter when watching my dog George. He was sick at the time and she very appropriately reached out as needed with questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!

Lauren took such great care of my dog Katie when I was out of town for almost a week! She provided at least daily communication through updates and pictures. It was my first time leaving Katie with someone outside of my family and for that long and Lauren eased any worries I had. I would definitely trust Lauren to watch Katie again!

About: With years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide compassionate, reliable, and personalized care for every animal. I treat each furry friend like family, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy while in my care. I also have experience with special needs and senior animals so I’m comfortable giving meds if needed. I’m currently working a part-time job and I'm a part time college student. My schedule may vary each week. I usually work Wednesday-Sunday starting at 5pm. Sometimes I work the morning shift. I’m not available on weekends because I work. When introducing myself to a new animal I like to start out quite and get on there level to make them feel more comfortable. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel happy and safe by respecting their spaces, personality, and unique needs.

About: Hello! My name is Griffin and I'm 20 years old. I have owned dogs my entire life and I have two living with me along side a cat! I currently work at The Family Fido just outside of Stewartville. During my time there, I have worked with many different breeds and sizes of dogs while supervising group play! Not all of the dogs that stay with us are dog friendly so I have worked with solo dogs too! The Family Fido is a boarding/daycare/rescue facility so as part of my job I take care of feeding and medications. Since I started, we have had 5 litters of puppies that I have helped to raise before they have been adopted out to families. I have learned a lot of training skills and I will be attending dog conferences in the future to build my experience even more! Working at a boarding and rescue facility I work with dogs daily and for hours at a time. I own two dogs as well that I work with around the house daily! I am able to do walks, feeding, bathing, nail trims, play, and continue any training that your dog may currently be working on! I am also open to working with anxious or less confident dogs as well as handling more than one dog at a time!

About: Hi! I recently finished my graduate degree at NEU and I’ve found lately that my time spent with pets and my income are both sorely lacking since moving to Boston, so this app seemed perfect! I currently live with my cat Obi and have raised 2 dogs and 4 cats since I was a kid. I’ve also cleaned up animal poop in every conceivable location known to man so that shouldn’t be a problem. I have experience with handling larger / more “intense” pets (my neighbor’s dog is taller than me when standing up, and my dog Yoshi is a psychopath). I fully understand that sometimes it’s impossible to function as an adult and also give your pet the attention they deserve every day, so I’d be happy to help out when I can! I am always conscious of pet safety and will make sure any harmful materials are locked away, all doors/windows are shut if the pet is indoors, and when walking the pet I always make sure to stick to the sidewalk or trail. My first goal when I visit a pet is to make sure they are comfortable. If they are friendly I will give them attention for a while, but if they are a bit more timid I’ll be quiet and try to not disturb them. Once their well-being is checked I’ll proceed to do whichever tasks the owner has laid out for me (and play with them for a bit more afterwards).

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, both big and small! I've helped take care of my family dogs since I was 7, and been working with dogs beyond my family for 2 years. I have experience working with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities. Your pup will never be wanting for affection! I'm working full-time during the week, so I am available for house sitting on weekends. I am available for dog walking and play dates during the weekday evenings and weekends. I can provide your fur baby with the bathing, brushing, medicating, exploring, and loving that they need to thrive. I have a small, friendly pup of my own who can play with your dog, and a car that can take them to the dog park if desired. Otherwise, I'm more than happy to provide them every comfort of their own home.

About: My entire childhood my aunt who lived with us, bred toy poodles. So, caring for puppies to dogs is my specialty. From feeding to walks, snuggles and play, I do it all with love and care. Since having children, we have discussed fostering dogs and we found this would be the best way to love on some dogs and make an income as a stay-at-home mom of two. I am a stay-at-home mom, so we are available mostly all the time other than drop off and Pickup from school, and can move commitments around fairly easily. I have a fenced in yard, and two young children to run around and play with your fur baby, walk with them and help feed them. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a lot of running space along walking paths.

Brittany was great with our babies! One of our dogs has high anxiety and she won her heart over very quickly! Both our dogs require daily medication and she was great with that. It is difficult to find someone with bird experience but she was wonderful with my green cheeked conure as well. She also left our home very tidy when she left. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future!

My pups get into everything if left alone so I'll be sure to always be present for anything your animal needs, and any extra support they may need.

Anna did a great job taking care of our two dogs and cat while we were out of the country. We have a Saint Bernard and a Golden Retriever puppy, so things can be a bit hectic, but she handled it really well. She sent regular updates and photos, which we really appreciated. Our pets were happy and well looked after. She's reliable, professional, and easy to work with! Highly recommend!!!
