“We are so thankful to have had Jean take care of our little Biscuits while out of town for 3 nights. We had frequent updates and photos of him while out of town and the house was left in perfect condition! Jean even left clean sheets on the bed and the dishwasher empty which I sooo appreciated. We felt very taken care of.”

“Chloe was a wonderful pet sitter! She took amazing care of our dog and our bunny while we were out of town. She was incredibly respectful of our home & space, and left everything in perfect condition. We appreciated her communication and updates with pictures of our pets! I would absolutely recommend her!”

“Rachel took fantastic care of my pup and my home. She took the time to meet us before confirming the sit, was easy to communicate with and flexible, and quickly built a strong rapport with my shy dog. Rachel took Marley on lots of adventures and it was great to receive updates throughout my time away. Highly recommend and already looking forward to having her back for another sit in the near future!”

“Blaca was exceptional! From the moment she stepped into our home, it was clear that we had made the perfect choice for our pet’s care while we were away. Her kindness shone through immediately, putting both us and Lio at ease. Communication was top-notch. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, ensuring we were always in the loop about our dog’s well-being and daily adventures. She was always on time, and we could count on her to follow through with all of our pet care instructions meticulously. It was evident that Blanca has a genuine love for animals. She quickly bonded with our dog, who was always excited to see her – a true testament to her warm and caring nature. We highly recommend Blanca to any pet owner looking for a reliable, communicative, and loving caregiver for their pet. She is truly a gem in the world of pet care.”

“Last week, Brooke housesat and took care of our pets. We had a great experience with her. She was reliable, communicated well, and took excellent care of our home and animals. Everything was in perfect order when we returned, and our pets seemed very happy and content. We would definitely recommend Brooke and would be happy to have her housesit for us again in the future.”

About: I have a special place in my heart for dogs! I’ve been around dogs since I can remember. I have taken care of many animals for my own family and friends. I am also college athlete who loves to take dogs on walks as much as I can! I am currently working part time throughout the week but I am very flexible with those times so pet care can fit in very easily. I have a big fenced yard perfect for dogs to run and play! I live on a long street perfect for walks! I can also crate your pup if needed

“Tyler was super responsive and attentive to the needs of the dog. He took amazing care of our home and ensured our instructions were executed to a t. I would recommend him to anyone else in the future”

“Maryna and her husband were amazing!!! They came by for a meet and greet before house sitting our pup and cat for 3 days, and took such great care to get to know them and their routine. Maryna also sent lots of updates and photos throughout their stay (which I really appreciated as someone who gets anxious leaving our little guys behind). They even took the time to take out the trash and do dishes before leaving. We will definitely be asking Maryna to pet sit for us again 😊”

“Barbara was fantastic! She did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs and aquarium. One of our dogs is very nervous around new people and by the end of Barbara's stay, the dog was comfortable with her. She provide updates daily and did not hesitate when any instructions were unclear. I will definitely book with Barbara again.”

“Magdalena stayed with my dog while I was out of town for the weekend and was wonderful! I appreciated the way she made a point to connect with my dog right away, she asked thoughtful questions, kept me updated with photos and videos, and I came home to a happy dog and clean apartment. She seems to genuinely love dogs and know how to help them feel comfortable very quickly. Would love to book with her again in the future and highly recommend. Thanks again Magdalena!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Kim. She asked a lot of great questions, shared updates and kept in contact while we were away and we came home to a happy pup! I would completely recommend Kim and absolutely book her again in the future!”

“Jessica did a great job with our dog and cats! They were all acting differently due to us not being there so they're just not used to other people. She sent plenty of updates & pics. Will certainly use her when we can!”

“Lindsey has been, by far, the best dog sitter I have found on this site. My dogs are both on the larger side and seniors, both require multiple meds and are high & low maintenance at the same time. Outside, sleep, outside, diaper, outside, sleep, outside, diaper, you get the gist. Lindsey handled it beautifully. She was communicative throughout, shared many pictures, provided updates and asked questions, without hesitation, that you never really are able to address during a meet & greet. It was an amazing and comforting benefit that my neighbor, who liked walking the dogs with me, told me that she was 'chopped liver' compared to the way the dogs interacted with Lindsey. My neighbor has known and walked with us for over 11 years, always has treats & she took a second class rating to Lindsey!! She is more than worthy of this review. I hope that this helps when other pup parents are looking for someone that they can trust and leave their loved ones in good hands without worry when needed.”
“Wow. That's pretty much all I can say. Brooke was in contact with me the whole time while I was out of the country. My place was immaculate when I returned home. My dog is healthy and happy. Definitely a 5-star sitter!!!”

“She was the best. Very communicative and flexible. We have a large group of pets and she handled it all very well. We could not be more appreciative of the job she did. Leaving our pets with someone can be stressful but I didn't worry a bit with leaving them with her.”

Chloe was a wonderful pet sitter! She took amazing care of our dog and our bunny while we were out of town. She was incredibly respectful of our home & space, and left everything in perfect condition. We appreciated her communication and updates with pictures of our pets! I would absolutely recommend her!

Brooke is wonderful! Being away from our pup is so much easier knowing he is in great hands with her! She is reliable, super communicative, sends lots of pictures and updates, and leaves the place spotless when she leaves. Our dog Frankie genuinely loves her because she not only follows his routine but also makes sure he has a lot of fun! She takes him on long walks and little adventures which he loves! We will always choose Brooke to take care of our pup!

We had a great experience with Miranda. She stayed at our house and watched our cat and dog for 10 days. We appreciated meeting her ahead of time to meet our pets and get acquainted with our house. We look forward to having her watch our 'kids' again next time we are travelling.

Amy is an absolute gem! I was so nervous about leaving my 14 week old puppy for the first time, but Amy went above and beyond to ease our anxieties and give me peace of mind. Bowie got love, care, and puppy play with her dog Barli. So great to have a new friend! I highly recommend Amy and will definitely use her again.

Teresa was fantastic! She was excellent with communication, made sure we had plenty of photos, was incredibly loving with our dog Bailey, and even took the addition of our tortoise on stride. Despite meeting ahead of time, Bailey was uncertain when Teresa showed up for the weekend, but Teresa was patient and worked the pivot to help our crybaby adjust in her own time. Definitely recommend!

Benjamin was professional, communicative, and took excellent care of our dog Charli while we were away. We appreciated the regular updates and great photos of her out on adventures—it was clear she was in good hands. The house was in great shape when we returned, and Benjamin was flexible and helpful when our return changed on the last day. Highly recommend.
