About: I've always loved dogs and now I have a family that loves dogs! I care for friends' dogs and we have a 3-year-old Australian Labradoodle (before that, I had a dog for 17 years). I have a good yard and am close to parks. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can take several walks a day and live in a great neighborhood for walking dogs. I treat dogs like they are part of my family. They are welcome on our couches and are free to roam in my back yard. At night they will sleep in a bedroom and they'll never be alone.

About: Hey hey! My name's Victoria, but friends call me Rev. I moved here a couple of years ago now from Georgia, began pet sitting in April 2024, and it's currently my full-time job! I've been fascinated with animals since a young age, with about ~17 years of experience, mainly with cats. As I've gotten older, I've fallen in love with the human-animal bond, and have become passionate about their care and respecting each one the way they deserve. Regardless of your pet's personality, preferences, or needs, I'm excited to meet, care, and accommodate your little darling with the same love as you would! I hope to hear from you soon 😊! As this is my full-time job, I'm capable of prioritizing my schedule to work for you and your sweetheart(s). I'm always sure to communicate if something may come up during your booking, such as other gigs or obligations outside of work, that way there's total clarity on where and when I'll be in relation to your pet(s). If you're not sure, please feel welcome to ask! If I can fit them into my schedule, even on short-notice or alongside another sweetie, I'm more than happy to see what I can do. I've got the kind of guest attitude you can expect from a typical Southerner! I take the care of another's space very seriously, doing my best to leave things as I found them, and due to a background in housekeeping it's not uncommon for me to do some cleaning before I leave. You can trust to come back to your home just as you left it, if not with less dust than before!

“Gabriel is great. He is dedicated to making sure animals are comfortable with him and provides amazing care. His communication is also great.”


“Samantha has been an absolute lifesaver for us and our cat, Penny, who struggles with separation anxiety. Penny is usually very stressed when we're away, but Samantha’s calm and caring presence made a huge difference. She took the time to understand Penny’s routines and needs, and it was clear that Penny felt safe and comfortable with her. We loved getting regular updates and photos, which put us at ease. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet with love and patience, Samantha is the perfect choice!”


“Karly is AWESOME! We have two large high energy dogs and they loved her. She sent lots of pictures and was very responsive. Will definitely be using her again!”


“Gabby has been so patient and caring towards my kitten who has never been left with a sitter before! He was anxious with someone new but she quickly gained his trust and picked up on his behavioral cues. She always sends me updates of her visit with photos ! I’ve been so thankful to have a reliable sitter for my Remy :)”


About: I have lived with cats my whole life and have been responsible for my cat since I was very young. I have also been a designated dog-sitter for several family members and friends for 13 years. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and playing with them in the backyard! I am a third year dental student. I am free some mornings, and am always free in the evening. I am more than happy to drop-in or take your pet for a walk! I will prioritize your pets safety and needs as I know how important they are to you! Being a pet owner myself, I know how much you care about your pet's wellbeing. It is important to me to get to know you and your pet so I can create an enjoyable and safe experience for your pet :)

About: I've taken care of a variety of different animals from the age of 10! Dogs, cats, chickens, birds, mice, rats, guinea pigs, chameleons, etc. You name it, I probably have taken care of one at some point in my life! I have two kitties of my own and love all animals. I know how stressful boarding animals can be and would love to help reduce your anxiety so you can enjoy your time away from home as much as possible! I work as a PhD student working a typical 9-5, but I can be flexible during the day as potty breaks and social play time is needed. I'm also rather active and enjoy going on walks! I'm happy to follow whatever rules you have in your home for your fur baby! Different pets have different needs and am happy to do whatever makes you feel more comfortable!

“Sarah was terrific with our pups while we were gone for the day. She took them for a walk then came back and gave them dinner. We got cute pics each time.”


“Natalia was absolutely wonderful with my cat Garbanzo! I could tell from the photos she took that he felt extremely comfortable and happy. Natalia communicated so well throughout the visits, always sending photos and details on how he was doing, and even went of her way to pick up the keys from me given I had just moved. I will for sure be booking her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone who wants genuine love and care for their pet!”


“Cianna took amazing care of my dog, Archie! Her communication was quick and efficient, and she made sure to update me with pictures and notes for every visit. She made sure Archie was comfortable and had all his needs met! I would definitely recommend Cianna for any of your pet sitting needs!”


“Annie did a wonderful job checking in on our pup, taking her for walks, and going the extra mile when she was sick on one of her drop ins. She was reliable and came at the times we discussed. Thank you Annie!”


“Revathi was excellent! She provided detailed updates highlighting all of my main concerns while I was away from my cats. Revathi is a total cat person and my two guys warmed up to her right away. Super kind and very communicative. I would definitely book again and recommend her services”


About: Hi! No dog is too big or too small—I love them all! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 2+ years of house-sitting experience caring for pups of all shapes and sizes—from tiny Toy Fox Terriers to lovable Saint Bernards. I’ve looked after up to 3 dogs at once, providing everything from regular exercise and bathroom breaks to administering medication and meeting special care needs. I work from home, which means your dog will get plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for daily walks (or energetic runs!), drop-in visits, and house-sitting tailored to your pet’s needs. Growing up with golden retrievers, I learned the ropes early—helping with daily walks and runs, grooming, tick checks, and taking full responsibility whenever my parents were away. Whether it's playtime, potty breaks, or just some loving company, your four-pawed family member will be in safe, caring hands. Although my landlord doesn’t allow pets in my apartment, I’ve been missing the joy of caring for animals. Fortunately, since I work from home, I have plenty of opportunities to provide attentive care for your four-legged family members. On weekdays, I’m available for 15-30 minute walks, runs, or drop-ins before 9am, once or twice around midday, and after 5pm, plus I have open availability on weekends. In addition, I offer daytime care at your home during the week, which is perfect for puppies, seniors, or pets needing extra attention. I’m also happy to house-sit for up to 10 days in a row, providing consistent companionship and care while you’re away. I am committed to following each owner’s specific guidelines to ensure their pets feel safe and comfortable—whether it’s rules about furniture, treats, or how they interact with other animals. I have experience caring for dogs both on leash and in fenced yards, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever routine best suits your pet’s needs. I can also assist with reinforcing basic training commands to help maintain good behavior. Above all, I’m here to support your pet’s unique care needs—whether that means administering medication, providing extra exercise, or simply showering them with lots of love and attention.

Holly R.Star Sitter
“I've used in-house dog sitters and kennels over the years but feel so much better leaving my dog with Holly. I know Moose will be treated like part of her family, and he is over the moon having a "sleepover" with her sweet doodle. I trust her completely and recommend her without reservation!!”


Victoria B.Star Sitter
“Victoria has cared for my energetic 6-year-old Maltese, Happy, in my home several times over the past couple months (2 to 8 hours each time, about 40 hours total). I highly recommend Victoria as a pet caregiver because she is trustworthy and reliable, empathetic, and experienced with caring for pets. The first time she sat for Happy, she listened carefully to understand his routine, and I felt assured she would take good care of him. She's always on time and was conscientious about taking him out for potty breaks and walks. Most of all, she is loving and genuinely cares about animals - she paid close attention to Happy and quickly got to know some of his adorable and quirky behaviors. And Happy is overjoyed whenever she comes over to sit, which probably says it all.”

She loved on them, sent us photos, and they LOVE her-which is probably the best review you can have as a pet sitter. Courtney was punctual, communicative and best of all loving. Thank you!!”

Aurora H.
“Aurora watched my dogs for a week while I was visiting family. My one dog Dahlia is very anxious around people other than myself, and she LOVES Aurora. I felt safe leaving my girls with her, as I knew they would be taken care of and get lots of pets! I don’t feel comfortable leaving my dogs with anyone else. I’ll definitely be asking Aurora to dog sit again for my next trip!”
