“We had an outstanding experience with Paulo. His communication was excellent from start to finish. He kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was clear that he really cared about our pet’s comfort and routine. We highly recommend Paulo to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible sitter!”

“Mark was awesome and took great care of my dog! I appreciate that he was really flexible with some last-minute itinerary changes which was very helpful and accommodating for me. I’ll definitely book with him again!”

“We are so happy with her care. Our pup came home happy. He’s not the easiest pup to meet as he’s still learning puppy manners but Roxanne was great, she sent pictures of our pup throughout his stay which was really reassuring that he was doing well and happy playing with other pups. Her location is awesome.”

“Mersal was terrific. The day I was scheduled to drop off Ramona, we had a minor issue that required a vet visit. This not only delayed our drop-off time but also involved Ramona needing medication while she stayed with Mersal. Mersal took it all in stride, provided ongoing updates along with some very sweet pictures, and Ramona made a new friend with Cora, Mersal's dog. This was the first time that Ramona spent any extended time with another dog and it was clear that she and Cora bonded. I definitely recommend Mersal and I plan to use her again in the future.”


About: “My husband and I are lifelong dog lovers with over 20 years of experience caring for our own dogs, including two Dobermans and two Miniature Schnauzers. We recently lost our Doberman and currently don’t have any dogs of our own. We truly miss having a dog around, and would love the opportunity to care for yours. Your dog will get plenty of individual attention, love, and care while with me. Were dependable, patient, and happy to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. I’m home during the day and evenings and have a very flexible schedule, so your dog will have plenty of company while they’re here. My husband will also be helping with their care, and he loves dogs just as much as I do. We love having dogs around and will have lots of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and just hanging out together. We’ll do our best to keep your dog’s routine familiar and make them feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while they’re with us. We have a huge fenced yard, and while we don’t currently have a dog of our own, we do have six chickens that live securely in their enclosed coop and are kept separate from the dogs. Your dog will get lots of love and individual attention from both of us. We both love dogs and understand that every dog has their own personality and routine. We’re happy to follow whatever makes your dog feel most comfortable, including their normal feeding, medications, and daily routine. Safety is really important to us. Our home is clean and secure, and we make sure anything that could be dangerous or a choking hazard is kept out of reach. Since I’m home most of the time, your dog will have plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. We will always let you know if we plan to be away from home for more than two hours. We’re also happy to do a meet and greet beforehand so you and your dog can feel comfortable with us. Most of all, we want your dog to feel safe, loved, and like part of our family while they’re here. We also have an extra kennel available if needed.

“Jeff has taken care of my very active dog many times now. He takes her for long walks, which is what she needs. The pick ups and drop offs are a big plus!!! I am so glad I found Jeff!”
“Emily and Eric are so great with my dogs. I'm very comfortable leaving my elderly pug and my very fearful rescue dog with them. They give me regular updates and send pics daily, as well as lots of feedback when I pick my girls up. So glad I found them. Highly recommended.”

About: Dogs (and all animals) are my life! They will be well loved & cared for like my own. I walk 8-12 dogs daily & would love more to join our pack or can do solo also. Lots of references available. I am never gone more than 2-3hrs during any day, while my roommate works from home so they always have someone with them. 24/7 care is my goal. My space is their space. I use my entire living room for all overnights. Toys, dog beds & kennels to decompress if needed. Lots of great walking areas nearby.
“Another wonderful visit for Maggie with Dawn! She's the best! Maggie is so loved and cared for while she is here. Endless play and lots of walks. Not a thing to worry about while she's with Dawn.”

“Leila was great with our Labradoodle and regularly sent pictures and checked in the whole time we were on vacation! Absolutely recommend her if you’re nervous about finding the right person to leave your pet with. ❤️”


“Jamie and Nicole were the perfect hosts for my sweet Ralph. He was the only pet in their care and got all the love and attention he is used to getting at home. I received sweet updates and pictures everyday. I highly recommend them to care for your pampered pet.”

“Emily was wonderful! She did a meet-up prior to our pup’s stay to ask questions and become familiar with our senior dog. She provided pictures throughout the stay and even trimmed my pup’s nails because she is a trained vet tech, and it’s been so difficult for me to get her in for an appointment. I would definitely recommend Emily because I will be rebooking her again for my next vacation!”

“I was very pleased with Fin who kept me updated about Blackjack. He had a couple of issues that concerned Fin regarding his digestive system. I reassured her that sometimes he does have challenges. He was fine the first seven days so likely stressed with the number of days he was at Fin’s home. Fin sent a number of photos that showed Blackjack was totally enjoying himself! I highly recommend Fin as a Dogsitter. Her backyard is a great place for dogs to hang out as is her home. I was impressed by the fact that she walked the dogs twice a day and also only takes one dog at a time.! Fin works from home so Blackjack got constant attention!”

“This is my fourth or fifth time leaving Roxy with Briana. Briana is very responsive, sends photos, and finds fun activities for the dogs to participate in. Roxy is excited to go to her home and I will definitely be using her again!”

“We were so grateful to have found Natasha! She took the best care of our little, old pup. Our shy/nervous dog needed a quiet home without other pets where she could have some one-on-one love while we were away and that’s exactly what she got. Natasha took her for lots of walks and kept us in the loop with how she was doing each day. We would most definitely use Natasha again!”

“Thank you, Heather! Our trip was great, knowing Thor was in caring hands. Heather is a very caring and professional sitter. She kept us updated with information and photos of our pup while we were out of town. We highly recommend Heather's services.”

“Kendall was great! She seemed genuinely happy to be taking care of our doggo. Every time she sent a picture he looked like he was smiling. Will be for sure rebooking in the future! Thank you Kendall!”

About: We lost our 16 year old Lab Zeus 6 months ago and looking to share our love for dogs while waiting to be dog parents again. My wife and I work from home and share pet responsibilities. We have a lot of love to give and share walking, feeding and caring. Fenced yard with room to roam. Nice neighborhood to walk and explore. We have had 2 dogs at this house and never had any issues.

Allison and her family were fantastic! They were so caring and loving to our dog Bella! She for her ACL 4 days before we had to leave. Allison was more than happy to giver her her meds twice a day. I got pictures and updates everyday. Bella was excited to see us come home but obviously was very loved while we were gone as she was a happy girl when we picked her up. We are booking another stay with her in September!

This was my first time leaving Moses with a sitter, so I was definitely a little anxious going into it. But after meeting Brody and his pup Kenzie, I felt so much better right away. The updates and photos said it all, Moses clearly had the best time (honestly, I think he was on his own little vacation 😂). It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Body was super accommodating to drop off and pick up (even after my flight landed super late). I’d 1000% book again!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
