Alyssa was great with Zuzu! I needed someone last minute and she was able to help in a pinch. Zuzu also does not do the best with strangers, but took to her so well. Thank you so much.

Katie was great taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She showed up when she said she would, spent some quality time with him, and sent plenty of pictures and status updates. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Could not ask for a better pet sitter, Bethany took exceptional care of our two dogs while we were on a four day trip. Kept us continually updated, Porche and Lexi were in great hands, loved the care she provided and Bethany kept us updated on their status throughout. Her attention to details and care of both pets and home were exceptional. We will be a repeat customer - Thank You

Lux has been a great (repeat) dog sitter for our 3 dogs. Staying in our home was so convenient. Our dogs were well taken care of and I felt very comfortable with all the communication received. He has gotten to know our dogs really well and it shows. We will definitely be having him help us again when we go out of town! THANK YOU!

We are so fortunate to have found Kathleen! She cares for our home, two pups, and one guinea pig while we were on vacation for a week. We returned to a clean home and happy pets! Kathleen was great at keeping us updated. We were able to have peace of mind on vacation. We recommend her highly.

About: I regularly pet sit for friends and family. 1-3 weeks mostly; but can do just a few days as well. Private home with a fenced yard. Dog lead in yard is available. I love to walk! Short or long walks are all fine with me. I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve owned 3 in my adult life. I even fostered a dog for 9 months! It was hard to give her up; but she went to a loving home. I’m honest and trustworthy and dogs just make every day better! I work a pretty flexible schedule. I’m retired so I have lots of time. If your dog likes car rides and public parks…awesome! There’s also 2-3 dog parks not far from my house I have a big yard that's about 70 yards deep and I have a secured lead in both front and back yards. For added safety, I attach an air tag to your pets collar. There are sidewalks all around my neighborhood for safe walks on a leash. I'm not a fan of dog parks. I prefer to select my walking path to ensure your pets safety. I live alone.

About: I have dog sitted for close friends and work colleagues during graduate school. I am still new to dog sitting but I take direction very well and I am willing to learn new things and meet new people! I am currently a pharmacy resident and work mainly during the weekdays from 7am-5pm and work every other weekend starting this upcoming July. My availability for June is open during the afternoons and most early morning for weekdays and open on weekends! I make a point to follow instructions to a T, and if there are opportunities to go above and beyond, I will do so. If dog sitting, I make sure to give the utmost attention to your pet while also meeting your expectations. As for house sitting, I like to treat a home as if it were my own: tidy and organized.

We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care Celeste provided for Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup! She went above and beyond in every way. Throughout the weekend, she kept us updated with photos and messages, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Celeste was professional, attentive, and clearly treated our pets as if they were her own. Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup absolutely loved her, and we could tell they were comfortable and well loved the entire time. We highly recommend Celeste to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and top-notch pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!

Corrine was excellent! This was my first time using a dog sitter, so I was apprehensive about leaving my dogs. She quickly put my mind at ease with lots of communication and pictures. She was punctual and followed my instructions while being loving and attentive to my dogs. I couldn’t ask for anything more. I highly recommend Corrine.

Sean not only watched our two goldens in our home but also our neighbors two goldens who were leaving town the same time as us. Four dogs can be a little intimidating to some people, but we think Sean took very great care of them! Every single one of them got multiple walks, including our two dogs who had to be walked individually. We came back to four happy dogs and a home that was respected while we were gone. He also made sure to keep us in constant communication. We will definitely be using him again.
