“Pond watched my two cats and one dog at my house and was absolutely amazing! Sent the cutest pictures, very responsive and left our house spotless. My animals were very happy and I will definitely have pond take care of my many animals again!”

“Sean did a great job dog/house sitting for me. He asked lots of questions and took notes during the meet-and-greet so that he could provide the best possible care for the dogs and house while I was gone. He made sure to check-in with me every day while I was gone and provide photos/updates during his time with my dogs. He handled my anxious/sick dog perfectly and cleaned up messes he shouldn't have to without a complaint. I will definitely use Sean again in the future.”

“Provided fantastic care to the pets and home. Pan needed far more care than anticipated and Danielle was very sweet, attentive, administered his medicines and helped him through a tough time. House was also very clean and well taken care of. Super appreciated and would definitely book again!!”

About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs since I was 6. I took main responsibility of my dogs when I was 9 years old and I have experience with many different breeds including Bully breeds. I know how to properly train, discipline, reward, feed, walk, and bathe pets. I am currently student at university so I would love to spend my weekends taking care of your pets. My schedule is flexible and I’m willing to spend my nights to watch your pets. I would also love to take afternoon walks and would love if your furry friends could join me. I respect any wishes you have for how you would like your pets to be within the house. I can keep your pet crated if you prefer or have them roam the house while keeping a close eye on them. I constantly pay attention to your pets and watch for any signs that they may show.

“Gabrielle was great! They inspires confidence immediately with their warm and courteous demeanor. Betty took to Gabrielle immediately. Gabrielle was a great communicator who kept us well updated. I would be lucky to have Gabrielle come back again!”

About: I have taken care of friend’s pets since I was a child as a side hustle. I pay close attention to the details of you and your animal’s specific needs to provide the easiest time possible. During the school year I am a grad student at UMD and can be very flexible. During the summer I work in office full time but am free after 6:30pm and on weekend. I promise to take care of your pet as if it were my own. I aim to offer your pet the most comfortable environment as possible, and be as communicative and flexible with you as I can.
“Megan was fantastic in taking care of our two cats and house over a holiday weekend! She was easy to communicate with and gave us frequent updates. We came home to a clean house and happy cats, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Rakia took great care of my two dogs. I have a special needs dog (all the anxieties/reactivity) and she managed her meds and needs perfectly. I highly recommend Rakia!”

“Aliyah stayed at our house to take care of our dog and cat while we were on vacation. She was great -- responsive and reliable. Our dog and cat were very happy when we got home. I highly recommend her.”

“Jocabet is a life saver! I just got a puppy and had a set sitter but they canceled last minute. This was my first time using the app and she was so responsive and helpful! She is very kind and my puppy enjoyed interacting with her. Will definitely be booking her in the future.”

“Rachel was a truly stellar house sitter/cat-watcher. My spouse and I spent nearly three weeks out of the country and hired Rachel to tend to our needy cat and house while we were away. She put us completely at ease, took wonderful care of our often-whiny kitty, and left our house in perfect condition. We received updates as often as we wanted and it was clear from the photos we received that Rachel has a wonderful touch with animals and was well-loved by our cat. We would hire her again in an instant; her services were well worth the cost.”

“Paola was an absolutely incredible sitter for our special needs cats. She was very attentive, communicated about our kitties regularly, and was easily reachable for any questions we had. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our cats, Paola!”

“Izcali stayed with our two dogs while we were away for a weekend. The dogs had a great time and enjoyed cuddling with her on the couch and playing in the backyard. Thank you, Izcali!”


“Sharon was amazing. She sent pictures everyday and Post was very happy. She followed our instructions and exactly and was very flexible and understanding to Post’s needs. Highly recommend and will absolutely have Sharon watch him again.”

“Jane was fantastic! She took really great care of both our cat and dog and kept us to update with everything! Such a relief to not stress about your pets while on vacation and know they’re in good hands!”

About: I have 8 years of experience walking, house sitting, and caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. What sets me apart is how focused I am on safe, consistent, and attentive care. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, high-energy dogs, and everything in between. I always take time to learn each dog’s routine, quirks, and needs so every walk or stay feels familiar and stress-free for them. Your dog isn’t just another booking, I treat them like they’re my own. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m mainly available in the mornings and afternoons, and I’m usually free throughout the weekends. I also have very open availability on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which gives me plenty of time for longer walks, drop ins, or house sitting when needed. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. In your home, I follow your routine exactly, feeding schedules, walk times, crate rules, and any house preferences you have. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep a close eye on your dog during walks, and never take risks with off leash time unless you request it and it’s safe. I keep your space clean, respect your home, and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a calm, reliable environment where your dog feels comfortable and you feel confident they’re in good hands.
“Claire was an incredibly responsible and caring dog sitter. She took excellent care of our senior dog, who recently went blind and deaf and is also dealing with kidney issues. Despite these challenges, Claire handled everything with compassion and competence. She stayed in our home, kept in regular communication, asked thoughtful questions when needed, and was always polite and respectful. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands. Highly recommend Claire to anyone needing a kind, attentive, and reliable pet sitter.”

Provided fantastic care to the pets and home. Pan needed far more care than anticipated and Danielle was very sweet, attentive, administered his medicines and helped him through a tough time. House was also very clean and well taken care of. Super appreciated and would definitely book again!!

Keaton was AMAZING. We got multiple adorable pics and updates daily, so appreciated! They provided absolutely perfect care to our babies, one being a senior cat who needs daily injections and a bit of extra care to get her calories in. Not only that, but they went above and beyond keeping our house tidy and handling tasks that were beyond what we had even discussed. We will absolutely be booking them again. Thank you Keaton!

Grace was a fantastic house sitter. We booked her for the holidays and it was such a relief to have such a communicative, reliable person watching over our 3 year dog. Grace sent us pictures every day of her and Luna out and about and relaxing together at home. Plus, she was incredibly considerate of our space and even ran the dishwasher and put used towels in the laundry to be run before she left. We will definitely have Grace house sit again when we are out of town - 100% recommend.

Taylor was wonderful! We had a last minute trip planned and Taylor was so kind to step in and help us with our doggie and cat. She took wonderful care for them (especially our doggie who is 14 and needs senior dog care). Thank you Taylor, we appreciate everything!

Daniel continues to provide peace of mind that our dog Zoe and our home are in great hands, allowing us to actually relax on our vacation. Even with more challenging medication and dietary needs this go around, everything was handled with the same professionalism as always.

Andre is an expert in caring for dogs and I would absolutely recommend him! He took exceptional care of Ty including walks, play time, and helping with separation anxiety. Andre provided regular updates (photos and videos) without me even asking. He's also very personable and 100% reliable. Many thanks, Andre!

Grateful for the care of our furry handful—he really can be a handful due to his dog aggression—and the excellent communication that Dwayne provided. I felt comfortable and confident leaving Pongo in Dwayne's care, which has not always been the case with other sitters. When we returned home, Pongo looked fat and happy. (He always looks fat.) And our house looked great.
