Overall had an excellent experience with Logan dog sitting. She was very flexible and able to meet in advance so my dog could become acquainted with her prior to the booked dates. Great communication throughout sitting, sent daily updates and pictures! She took great care of my dog and treated my home with respect.

Rebecca was great! She put up with my very clingy dog and gave her lots of snuggles and attention. ❤️ Great communication and overall wonderful experience. Will be booking with her again!

About: I love caring for and being around animals. I have more than 5 years of experience caring for pets. They’re precious and deserve tender care. I have cared for dogs and cats through check ins, walks, and house sitting. I have mostly watched dogs or cats 3-4 or older. I have recently watched a kitten who is turning 1 soon and had a lot of fun so I’d be open to doing it again. I am a full time student and have a job outside of this. Pet care would be more during my weekends and free time. Seeing animals when not in class or working is such a reward! My current availability is Friday after 3 PM, anytime Saturday and Sunday, and before 5 PM on Monday. I have pet sit overnight in homes for dogs and cats. I learn quickly and take notes to assure I care for any pet well. I like to ask clients about what they typically do with their pet in a day that their pet will expect outside of feeding and walking time. This might include playing with toys once they come home for 15 minutes or treats after walks. I love doing pet phone calls for clients who want to check in with their pet in real time! A quick FaceTime call can bring such ease to a pet parent and such joy to their pet.

Morgan was a great pet sitter. My dog can be very shy and warmed up to her quickly. She was very attentive and helpful. My pets were well cared for by her, and I will definitely use her services again when I need an overnight sitter.

This was my first time using any sort of pet sitter app. I’ve always been on the fence about leaving my two Maine coon babies behind but I’m so glad I took the chance and booked Devon for my most recent weekend home. Communication was prompt and she eased my mind the very first night. She sent photos, videos and text updates daily at each meal time and during their play and rest times. It’s almost like I wasn’t away from them. She provided updates on their behavior, moods and quickly learned their quirks and personalities lol. I’m very happy I left them in her hands; she took care of them as though they were her own and we appreciate it!! We will definitely be booking with her for future trips.

Alyssa done a wonderful job with our 2 babies. This was the first time getting an over night sitter for 4 nights. We were very nervous doing this but she put our minds at ease immediately when meeting with her. She’s gentle, loving, and caring. She followed all requests as directed. My 2 dogs adjusted quickly to her as she has a gentle personality. I like to Thank her and hope to use her for future sitting. TY

About: I have been taking care of my friends’ and neighbors’ dogs and cats since I was 15. I have been hired to dog and cat sit during the day (for pets of all ages), walking dogs, and drop in visits to feed animals and play with them! I am currently in physical therapy school and have a very flexible schedule. I am available after 4pm Monday through Friday and off on the weekends. Starting May 1st I will be available all day everyday except for days marked off! I have a fence and big backyard. When caring for others pets, I am able to let them outside with a fence or able to take them out on a leash. I also have a car if they enjoy car rides!

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my lifelong dedication to animals and hands-on experience in many different settings. I started volunteering at an animal shelter when I was just 15, which gave me early experience in handling pets of all temperaments and needs. For the past three years, I’ve worked in animal hospitals, where I gained valuable skills in pet care, observation, and safety. One of my proudest experiences was raising a neonatal kitten, Binx, from just one day old—he’s now a happy, healthy two-year-old and my best friend. Beyond professional care, I’m also the go-to person for friends and family when it comes to trimming cats’ and dogs’ nails, so I can help with grooming needs too. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own—your furry family member will always be safe, loved, and spoiled with attention and cuddles while in my care. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I regularly care for a multi-pet household with ten cats and a dog, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, feeding schedules, and routines. I organize my day to ensure every pet receives consistent, reliable care and attention. Just so you know, I’m also fully insured!! I don’t offer pet care in my own home, but I’m more than happy to care for your furry friend in the comfort of their own environment. I find pets are often happiest and most relaxed when surrounded by the sights, smells, and routines they’re used to. When I’m in your home, I make sure to follow your care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding, playtime, walks, administering medications, or keeping up with litter boxes. I’ll also provide plenty of love, attention, and cuddles so your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet an stress-free, happy experience.

Nicole was diligent in caring for our dog and bought him a couple of new toys that he loves! She was cheerful and exhibited a great ability in being able to manage his rambunctious behaviors from the very first day. We appreciated her dependability and punctuality.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 25 years, and I currently have two of my own. I’m the guy friends, neighbors, and family call when they need someone dependable to look after their pets. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or keeping them company, I make sure every dog is safe, comfortable, and well‑taken care of. Because I work from home, I’m able to build pet care right into my day. I walk my dogs daily, spend time with them in our fenced yard, and keep them active and engaged. That flexibility also lets me do longer drop‑ins or even work remotely from a client’s home if their dog needs extra company. Pets get plenty of attention and consistency with me. I provide a safe, supervised environment with a fenced yard, daily walks, and plenty of interaction with my two friendly dogs. Since I work from home, I’m able to keep a close eye on pets and stick to their normal routine. For clients who prefer in‑home care, I can stay longer or even work remotely from their house so their dog isn’t alone. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for.

Allison took very good care of our Russian Blue cat, Thor, while we went away for a long weekend. Allison was really kind, efficient, prompt, responsive, and sent us photos/clips of Thor so we were able to relax while being away and have peace of mind. I highly recommend Allison as a terrific pet house sitter!

Wow, Devon is the best! She house sat for us for 3 nights and was very communicative the entire time. Provided lots of pictures of our pups on walks, playing, and sleeping. All 3 dogs were very relaxed when we got home from our trip. She also took very good care of our home and left it better than she found it. I’d give Devon 10 stars if I could!

Julie is very reliable & she took care of my cat. I felt at ease while I was on vacation. This is the 1st time I left him alone with anyone since I got him which was close to a year ago. I definitely would recommend Julie & I would let her take care of all my pets. When I go away again, I will contact Julie to see if she can watch my cat again. Great job.

Sophie was an amazing house and dog sitter for my pup Johnny over the Fourth of July weekend! From the start, she was communicative, responsible, and so sweet with him. She took Johnny on plenty of walks, played frisbee with him (his favorite!), and followed his routine perfectly. I really appreciated the regular photo updates, it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, she kept him calm and comfortable during the fireworks. I could tell Johnny was happy and well-cared for the entire time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Sophie again. She truly went above and beyond!
