“Left our three musketeer pups for the weekend, 2 of which are senior and one that requires a bit of extra assistance. We got the cutest and most detailed updates of our pups, and could tell how well taken care of they were while we were gone. Can’t wait to have Stephanie watch and walk our fur babies again next time!”


“Sasha did a wonderful job of keeping our anxious munchkins happy while we were away all week. It was so nice to get regular updates about their day and not have to worry about anything. She also left our house pristine, and was always easy to reach.”



“It’s always a little stressful when a trusted petsitter moves away and I need to find a new one. Marlita was great from the start, very professional and responsive to messages. She sent pictures and updates while we were gone. We just got back from a weekend trip and the whole crew here is happy and healthy. I’m so glad we found Marlita, and grateful I have someone I can trust whenever we go away.”


“Angelica was so wonderful with Pig! She took such great care of our sassy old pittie and even help us start a new crate sleeping routine thanks Pig deciding she needed to sprain her ankle right before we left. She checked in with us each day and was timely in replying to any questions or texts I sent her way. She was respectful of our home and went above and beyond her responsibilities by bring in any packages/mail that was delivered and cleaned all the lickmats, kongs and toys. We look forward to booking her again.”


“I had the pleasure of having Hazel take care of my dog and my friend’s dog at the same time, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Hazel is absolutely wonderful. Her attention to detail was exceptional. She followed each dog’s routines and dietary requirements to a T. I received regular updates with photos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. I appreciate her reliability and professionalism. She was always punctual and responsive to my messages. I wholeheartedly recommend her, and I’ll definitely be booking her services again in the future. Thank you, Hazel for being such an amazing caregiver to Little Bear and Reese!”


“Katrina is a true animal lover who was great with my hyper 45-lb hound mix Sage. She's been on a couple of walks and one overnight housesit. I trust her to keep Sage (an unpredictable bolter when spotting squirrels) safe on the leash and reliabily show up for each walk, even accommodating last minute schedule changes. Katrina took good care of my house while we were gone and even picked up some bone shards that could have been a choking hazard. To top it all off, I got a selfie of Katrina & Sage snuggling in bed. Sage will be looking forward to her new caretaker's return soon.”


“Veronica was absolutely wonderful with my babies! She went above and beyond, from picking up new toys and treats for the girls, to taking them on adventures, and doing everything she could to make them comfortable and happy. I received a ton of pics and videos and it was easy to tell how happy my Lily and Bella were with Veronica's care. I highly recommend Veronica for your pet sitting needs.”


“Jade was our Superwoman to our 2 energy and overly needy (in affection) pitbulls. They had a great time with her, including many walks, lots of naps. Jade was professional, confident, capable and kept us amused with photos and videos. We will be contacting her again! Thanks Jade!!”


“Molly was fantastic! She was great with our 8 month old golden mix and our 6 year old cat. She truly went above and beyond! She was so kind and attentive, and great with communication. We would 100% use Molly again for pet-sitting and would recommend her to anyone in need of pet sitting or pet check ins! She helped us feel at ease and took great care of our fur babies. Thank you so much Molly! 😊 Appa and Ringo had a great time!”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I have experience caring for both playful puppies and senior dogs with special needs. I’m attentive, gentle, and always focused on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy. I’m also familiar with basic training, giving medications, and making sure every pet feels loved like they’re part of the family. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life because of my two dogs, Bobby and Dutch. They’ve taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and being present. My daily routine already includes early morning walks, feeding schedules, cleaning up, and plenty of playtime and cuddles. Caring for them has made me naturally organized and attentive to the needs of other pets. Whether it’s a puppy full of energy or a senior dog needing a slower pace, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and part of the family. Whether caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I prioritize making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their usual routine closely including meals, walks, potty breaks, and playtime while creating a calm, pet-friendly environment. I’m experienced with crate training and can help reinforce good habits, making sure pets feel secure in their space. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed, carefully following instructions to ensure their health and well-being. I keep everything clean, provide regular updates to owners, and treat every pet like family. Thanks to Bobby and Dutch, I understand the importance of patience, structure, and lots of love in pet care.

About: I was a soldier in my country, I took my dog training course and worked with many breeds. I really like sharing my time with pets and I will take care of them as if they were my own. I work part-time and I want to share my free time with pets and take care of them as if they were my own and pamper them so that they feel good with me until they return home. I have an empty backyard which I could use for the care and much more of your pets with the greatest security and more confidence

“Natasha was not only great with our dog Bruce but also a respectful house guest. She sent images of Bruce that kept us smiling while we were on our vacation, and we knew he was having a good time with her. I think she gave Bruce more walks and quality time than we’re usually able to give - so we hope to have her stay next time we’re out of town, too.”


“Me and my babies had such a great experience with Neemah ! Oh, my animals loved her and she was there for everything that they needed and more. She was also amazing at giving me updates to keep my mind at ease while I was away. Would definitely recommend her services and will definitely be back!”

About: I’ve cared for family pets, and I live with two cats. I’m loving, responsible, and treat every animal with patience, kindness, and genuine daily attention. I work full-time, but every morning I clean litter, refill food, and every evening I ensure fresh water, affection, and quality time with my cats. I visit clients’ homes to feed cats and dogs, clean litter boxes, provide fresh water, play, give affection, and ensure pets feel safe and loved.

“Juan was excellent! It’s my first time using River and he gave me and my dog a great experience. He gave me reassurance and responded quickly whenever I wanted to check on him. Kovu will definitely be his client from now on :)”
