“Victoria did a great job watching my two cats for a week! She was very communicative and the cats were very comfortable with her. I’d absolutely have her catsit again!”


“Jeff did a great job with our cat Gretzky. Gretzky is a 20 year old who has some special care needs and Jeff was able to give the cat medicine, feed him his special diet etc. We will definitely hire Jeff again as he is reliable and a good communicator who really likes cats. Highly recommended.”


“Alana is absolutely wonderful and made our little ones feel at ease. Our cat Leo & new pup Simone immediately connected with Alana and I had full confidence that everyone was in great hands. Thanks again!!”


“Valeria has been-by far-the best dog sitter for my boy Charlie. She was very communicative and thoughtful. She also immediately bonded with Charlie and knew how to take such good care of him. She gave multiple updates throughout the day and sent me the best photos and videos. Thank you so much Valeria, you are a gem!!”


About: For nearly my entire life I have taken care of my two dogs, Eddie and Shorty. Between raising them as puppies and taking care of Shorty in his later years, I have had the pleasure in taking care of my dogs. Over the years I have helped sit and take care of guinea pigs, dogs, cats, and many other pets! No matter the animal, I treat them with love just as if they were my own. I can walk or watch your pets any weekday! As for overnight sitting, the same applies. I work part time in politics so I should almost always be able to fill your requests. I can provide care to your pets in your home when needed! If given with instructions on how to take care of your pets, I can accommodate to all of you and your pets needs.

“Thank you for coming through and taking care of our fur babies! She also brought packages on in while we were gone. She’s amazing and a great communicator.”


“Tori was a great communicator while she housesat and dogsat for us over a weekend. She sent lots of little notes and photos which were appreciated and clearly was very attentive to our older dog who can be a little particular! Highly recommend.”


“Kelcee was excellent! Our dog and cat were well cared for over the 4 days we were gone. She kept us updated and sent frequent photos. She also was very clean and respectful of our space. I would Kelcee recommend to anyone!”


“Nile was wonderful! He was super easy to communicate with before and during our trip, took fantastic care of Frances, and left the apartment spotless. And, of course, he sent great photos. Well definitely ask him to watch Frances again!”


“We booked Jainah for 5 days to watch our two kittens while we were out of town and we have nothing but positive things to say about our experience with her! From the beginning, Jainah was very responsive and we appreciated having the opportunity to do a meet and greet prior to booking. While we were away, we received regular updates along with videos and photos - it definitely put our minds at ease and we really appreciated the regular communication. The apartment was in spotless condition upon our return and the boys seemed happy and content. We will definitely look to book with Jainah again!”


About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life and have been taking care of my friends and families dogs the past 5 years. I have taken care of dogs of all different sizes and breeds. I am a full time social worker with a hybrid role which means I’m home a lot during the week even when I’m working. I always have weekends off and am available to take care of pets pretty much every weekend. I offer at home services and can easily stop by multiple times a day to provide food, walks, and all the pets necessary to make sure your pet is happy while you are away. Also open to house sit if 24/7 care is needed.

“Alyssa was absolutely fantastic with our puppy and our two cats. This was the first time leaving our five month old puppy, so I had a lot of nerves around leaving her. Alyssa was very reassuring and communicated with me several times throughout the day, sending lots of pictures and giving me updates on how everyone was doing. I felt very confident that my girls were all in good hands! I feel very lucky that we found Alyssa and would highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a great pet sitter!”


About: Hi! I’m Joe and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by 12 beagles..yes, 12! My family raised and trained them as hunting dogs, so I learned early on how to read dog behavior, keep up with high-energy pups, and make sure each dog got the attention they needed. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments from playful labs to shy rescues. I’ve also helped friends and neighbors with walking, feeding, and even post-surgery recovery care when needed. In college, I cared for a cat (who acted like a dog) and now I share my life with my sweet girl Delilah, a 12-year-old senior dog with plenty of wisdom and personality. I also worked at a horse stable to volunteer for a few years so larger dogs are more than fine! I'm attentive, active, and great with routines whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone to hang out with while you're away. I understand how much pets mean to us, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs a companion, a jogging buddy, or a calm and patient presence, I’d love to help. I work weekdays from 8:30 AM to 4 PM, but I can take breaks during the day if you're located nearby for quick drop-ins or walks. I am also an early riser so mornings are not an issue. I'm fully available on weeknights and most weekends, and I’m happy to adjust my workout schedules to make sure your pet’s needs come first. I plan ahead, communicate clearly, and make sure every visit is on time and unrushed. Whether it’s a weekend house sit or weekday walk, I’ll make sure your pet gets consistent care and attention. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for when you're not around. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, staying overnight, or taking your dog for a walk, I make sure everything is done just the way you’d do it. I stick to their routine, keep a close eye on their behavior, and make sure they’re comfortable and relaxed. I always double-check gates and doors, use secure leashes, and make sure your home is left just as I found it. Your pet’s safety and happiness (and your peace of mind) are what matter most to me.

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and have walked them for two years. I make sure they have a safe fun time. My schedule is pretty open so I am guaranteed to make sure your pet is well taken care of and having a fun safe time. In clients home I make sure that gates are closed to backyard. Make sure they aren’t getting into anything they aren’t supposed to be in.

“Sarah has taken care of my two cats several times now and every time I’m always thrilled. She always sends me lots of pictures and updates, shows them tons of love, and plays with them, and my house is always immaculate when I get home. Sarah is awesome. Knowing she is taking care of my fur babies makes it a lot easier for me when I have to be out of town.”


“Casey took great care of our dog and home! Our dog seemed very happy and the house was spotless when we returned! We will definitely be asking Casey to take care of her in the future!”


About: I have cat sit for cats of all age groups especially senior cats. I love animals and have animal care experience. I take pride in my animal care experience. I previously owned a cat for 18 years. I have cared for 5+ cats. My experience include working in a cat hospital and volunteering as a cat monitor. I have many blankets, a cat bowl and grooming accessories. I take time to pay attention to cats needs and will send pictures if needed.

He has taken care of our family dog Riley for years. We needed some extra help when we first got Riley as a puppy and James has been a great help. Even when Riley was a puppy and not well trained, James had a lot of patience with Riley and has always been flexible to dog sit or walk him when we need. He is super responsible and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him as a pet sitter or dog walker!”

She was also incredibly accommodating when my flights home were canceled, rearranging her schedule to stay an extra two days to make sure my cat was taken care of. I couldn't be happier to have found her, and definitely hope she can come again! :)”
