Had a great experience with Stephanie and Elizabeth! They house/pet sat for us for a full week and we were not concerned at all while away as we knew our pets (2 dogs and turtle) were in great hands. They sent us regular updates including photos and videos! We felt very comfortable with them both with our pets and in our home. Without a doubt, we will use their services again. Thank you for helping make our time away more enjoyable!

Lindsey was super! Puppies were happy and well cared for while we were gone and we got regular updates even over a busy Thanksgiving week. Lindsey is an excellent communicator, asking questions about things along the way both prior to and during the pet sitting sessions. She took nice care of the house, and was just wonderful to work with. THANK YOU LINDSEY!

Stefania, was great. She provided us with many pictures and daily communications. Our furbabies were well cared for, she took the dogs outside several times a day, which is something they definitely love. Our house was well cared for.

Jess was amazing! She was so patient with our 12 year old vizsla and after less then a few hours, our dog warmed up to her and they became fast friends. We are so grateful to have found Jess and will use her again in a heartbeat. We just moved to the area, so finding Jess and trusting her to live in our brand new home with our dog has given us a lot of comfort!

About: I’ve been doing dog/cat sitting since I was 13! I have worked in a boarding facility for over a year now. I’m cpr certified as well :) I do dog/cat sitting full time, I’m out of school so your furry friends will have my attention 100% of the time! I also have car transportation I do not offer sleepovers in my home due to be having my own furry companions. I have 5 dogs, a cat, a hamster, and a leopard gecko :)

Adela was great with my 167 lb dog and 6 lb cat. She sent plenty of pictures/updates and I got the feeling that she cared for my animals exactly as I would. She is obviously an animal lover! Because my dog is so large, I knew it would take a special person to walk him. Not only did I feel like she had the animal skill level to watch over my big boy, she took very detailed interest in the particulars of his feeding schedule. I am so happy to have found her because I feel like I have a great back up should I have to travel or be away for longer during the day than I want my animals to be alone.i highly recommend Adela!

About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for several years and truly understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. As a pet owner myself, I have hands-on experience with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I have real-life experience caring for my own animals and helping friends and family with theirs. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets of different temperaments — from energetic pups to independent or shy cats. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I currently work part-time and create my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, including afternoons and evenings. Because of my flexible schedule, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive consistent care and attention. I have a fully fenced backyard with grass for safe outdoor play and live within walking distance of a dog park for extra exercise (with owner approval). Inside my home, pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment. I can easily follow specific feeding schedules, crate routines, medication instructions, or litter box preferences. For cats, I ensure litter boxes stay clean, provide enrichment and playtime, and respect their space if they prefer quiet companionship. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

Could not recommend María enough. She will go above and beyond for you and your pets and treat them like her own. I left my puppy for the first time and María took such good care of him. When I got home he was clean (she had bathed him!), happy, healthy, and had a fat little stomach which means he was eating good while I was gone, which was a huge worry of mine given how small he is. She hand fed him to make sure he ate and was getting enough food in. I am so grateful for her and her kindness towards animals. María is extremely trustworthy, kind, and caring. Please give her the opportunity to care for your furry friends, you will not regret it!!! Thank you so much María for taking care of my baby. If needed, I will absolutely be using her services again.

If I could give a 100 ⭐️ rating for Cole I definitely would. I had a family reunion in another state to attend and my Molly is not only my emotional support animal but she’s also getting older and dealing with senior dog issues with hearing and seeing and getting weak in her back legs and I was panicking about leaving her in a kennel when my concierge sent me some people who could stay at my home and take care of her I carefully reviewed the list and immediately Cole stood out and I had a feeling in my heart he’s the one! We met before leaving town so he could meet Molly and she would get to know him a little and not be afraid. He kept in constant contact while we were gone and sent pictures of her cuddling with him. My heart just melted 🥰 We got home from our trip and Molly wasn’t expecting us and barked and backed up like we were strangers lol because she wanted Cole back. My husband and I are so very grateful and thankful for Cole and would highly recommend him for anyone who may need a dog/home sitter he’s a genuine person who truly loves and cares about our furry kids 🐶💖 I don’t know how to thank him enough for his kindness and love for our girl while we were gone.🙏🏻

About: Hi! My name is Camryn and I'm 24 years old. I'm a responsible, calm, and caring person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and creating a peaceful home environment. I recently graduated and am coming back for summer break after playing professional volleyball in Europe. I’m disciplined, reliable, and used to maintaining routines — which I know is especially important when it comes to pets feeling safe and comfortable. I'm also very respectful of other people's homes. I keep spaces clean, organized, and well cared for, and I approach house sitting with the mindset that I'm looking after something important to someone else, because I know how much trust that takes. l'd love the opportunity to care for your home and pets and make sure everything runs smoothly while you're gone. I love house and pet sitting because I genuinely enjoy being around animals. My schedule is super flexible and I also enjoy having a routine and spending time in new places in a more local, relaxed way, it's a great fit for my personality. I care for pets by creating a calm, consistent, and safe environment that matches their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any specific care instructions (like medication or special diets).
