Eric was great housesitting our 11-month-old Akita! He asked great questions ahead of time to get to know his personality and anything we were concerned about. Our dog is a bit reactive on his leash, which didn’t phase Eric at all. He seemed very comfortable with dogs in general, and we felt confident he would do a good job! We also got regular updates while we were away, and all was well when we returned.

Lindsey was a great communicator, respectful of our home, and handled our fur babies well. She kept us informed of issues while we were away and was also responsive with any questions or concerns we had. We'd hire her again and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter. Thank you Lindsey!

Jessica just watched my furbaby for the first time and it was wonderful to receive many detailed updates and photos. She was direct, so kind, and left my home looking exactly as she found it. Most importantly, Coco was happy and healthy when I returned! Ernie (Jessica's adorable pup) did a great job socializing with Coco, as a nice bonus. Would happily use Jessica again in the future!

The Best! Wayne and Jordan were amazing with my two rescue huskies while I was on vacation. The dogs are generally very cautious of strangers, and they were going through some sibling rivalry and needed to be kept apart - on separate floors of the house. Wayne and Jordan’s pet-sitting experience and patience were apparent in their daily communications and photos. It was great to see how the girls warmed up quickly! Each pup got lots of attention and exercise, and they were calm and happy when I got home. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The icing on the cake - the bedding was all washed and the house was clean when I got home. Highly Recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

OMG! Beth went above and beyond with her care for Chesty. He was very anxious and nervous and she so patiently worked with him to keep him calm and happy. She communicated with me multiple times daily which helped relieve my anxiety. I have already reserved her for another stay with him!

About: I’m now offering dog walking and would love to meet your pup! 🐾 I have a deep love for animals and a strong understanding of dog behavior, so your dog will be in caring, capable hands. Expect reliable walks, happy tails, and photo updates along the way. I’m excited to get to know the dogs in the neighborhood—book with me today! I’m filling up with regular clients and I love getting exercise with the same pups on a regular basis. *Close in Old Town preferred. I also offer limited house sitting for regular clients only and unfortunately cannot provide 24/7 care. I’m very active, and my flexible schedule allows me to prioritize consistent, attentive pet care throughout the day, including walks, playtime, and reliable check-ins as needed. I follow each pet’s routine, provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of loving attention, ensuring a safe and comfortable home environment at all times.

Andrea is a great house/dogsitter. I booked her for the first time last weekend. She was very responsive and we had a very constructive meet and greet, during which she asked many questions and took copious notes. Andrea reached out to me—without prompting—before she arrived the day of her sitting, to confirm she was coming and what time she’d be there, which placed me at ease. During her stay, Andrea gave me appropriate status checks, including when she left. She left the house in great shape. I would definitely recommend Andrea for house sitting and intend to use her again soon.

Bella was incredibly well cared for during our absence. Ahmed looked after every detail and was in constant contact updating me with photos and videos which was really helpful to easing any anxiety we had in leaving our little Yorkie. Ahmed even came back Sunday afternoon to give Bella another walk and treat to bridge the time before I returned home. I couldn’t have been more pleased with this caregiver; thank you Ahmed!!

Nikole took care of our two puppies for 5 days, she dis an excellent job sending us updates and pictures of them while we were on vacation. She stayed in our home every night so the puppies don’t stay alone during the day she kept the schedule we requested her to follow. I will definitely book her again.

Kellie was awesome!!! This was the first time leaving our dog/having a pet sitter so naturally we were overly cautious pet parents but Kellie put our minds completely at ease with clear and regular communication and lots of love shown to our dog ❤️ I would definitely recommend, we would not have been able to enjoy our trip without her!

Joanna has been my sweet boy’s daily dog walker for 2 years, and I genuinely don’t know what I would do without her. She has become one of the most trusted people to my very reactive, shy dog - a true miracle worker! From her abundance of pictures, detailed updates, and vast experience, she’s truly a dog owner’s best friend. Thank you, Joanna!

Morgan was my life saver! I needed a last minute sitter two days before my 6 day trip. I reached out to Morgan and she was very helpful from the start. She was very responsive and respectful in the meet in greet. She took care of my home and dog for 5 nights. My dog and her got along super well, which was a breath of fresh air since we dog is picky about people! Came home to a clean house and happy dog! Thank you Morgan, would highly recommend!

This is the second time Ahmed has stayed with Bella. Ahmed went above and beyond in making sure Bella was taken care of while we were away. He made a trip to our house before the stay to make sure he understood her medicine and feeding routine. He was very communicative and made me feel very comfortable while I was away. Also there was a problem with many of the smoke alarms in the house and Ahmed went the extra mile to take the units down to stop them from making the alarm. I couldn’t recommend Robin and Ahmed more highly. Kind and good people.

Ajia is INCREDIBLE! I seriously could not have asked for a better sitter. She was so responsive, took time to share all about Chelsea’s day, made sure to give her all the snuggles and even took her on longer walks than I had asked for. Absolutely amazing care and made me feel so at ease while I was traveling. I will always ask Ajia first for my overnight stays. Thank you x a million!! :)

Angie provided wonderful care for our two dogs, both of which have their own quirks (one is a senior dog with anxiety during thunderstorms and the other is a sassy velcro dog). She was extremely communicative and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our fur babies were well cared for while we were away. She also took amazing care of our house and left it very tidy upon leaving. We would highly recommend Angie to anyone looking for caring, quality pet sitting.
