“Jackie did a fantastic job house sitting. Jackie took excellent care of our dog. I loved how she sent us photos of our dog while we were away, we knew she was in great care!”

“Marideth was great with my bernedoodle Maple. She took excellent care of the house and left it very clean after a week long stay. She was very nice to work with and sent lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely be rebooking with her again next time I go out of town!”

“Jessica was super reliable, sent pictures during her overnight stay with us and left the house just when way we left it! Our dogs and cats were in good hands while we celebrated our wedding!”

“Sarah was great! She took the time prior to our booking to meet me and Grace and even did a “test run” before my 3 days away! She’s loving and kind and my dog Grace liked her immediately and to be honest, Grace is a rescue dog who had a hard life so she doesn’t trust easy! Sarah stayed in touch while I was away so I was confident and secure and she left my home in perfect condition! I highly recommend her and will use her often!”


“Christina did an amazing job watching our three senior dogs while staying at our house. She sent pictures and videos and was very responsive. We will definitely be using her going forward!”

“Another great booking! It is so nice to enjoy sometime away and know our senior pugs are being well taken care of. Haley leaves our home spotless and is so patient with our pups.”
“Judith treated our pup, Rayne, with all the attention she has been craving since our son was born! She also treated our elusive outdoor cat and many plants with the utmost care. We will definitely rebook Judith if she is available the next time we need a house sitter for our fur and plant babies!!”

“Ciara was amazing as always! She stayed over with our GSD for the weekend and she gave us constant updates and pictures throughout the entire stay! I would trust her with my babies any day!”
“We just moved across the US. We had to go back to our state for nine days. I had a greater peace of mind with Jessica watching our dogs. Very thankful. She sent pictures FaceTime a couple times. To say hi to our babies. I enjoyed the experience. I would hire her again. Kogi and Gus enjoyed her.”

About: I love getting to know each individual pet’s personality and needs, and approach them with respect to make them feel comfortable and safe. I have many years of experience with animals who need insulin shots and oral medications, and experience with all ages. I will treat your pets as if they were my own! At home, I have a tripod husky and a cat who has traveled far with me. I go on miles-long walks every day… always with dog treats in my pockets :) I'm currently working from home setting my own schedule, so walking your dog would fit well into my day. If you live near me, an overnight at your place is possible as I like to give my Stormy cat her breakfast and outside grass time by mid morn. I have lots of cat toys in my house for my cat. I hope your dog has toys and if it's just a walk, then a good leash and baggies to collect poop are essential. I am all about fresh water and seeing that their space is just how they like it.
About: One of my biggest passions is saving animals lives through fostering. My fostering experience has provided me many skills necessary to care for animals with varying needs, including young kittens, diabetic cats, XXS chihuahuas, and XXL breed dogs. Due to my experience in healthcare, I've provided many sub-cutaneous injections for diabetes maintenance and drug responsibilities. I've handled many small rodents including mice, and am comfortable with handling and providing care for smaller pets. I've managed care for animals with severe anxiety by providing them with daily psychiatric meds, and animals needing physical support with supplements, weight loss interventions (diet foods and safe, increased exercise), as well as animals with stranger fear. As a full time professional student, my mornings are often occupied by lectures, and Tuesday/Wednesday afternoons may be partially occupied for school responsibilities. I am very flexible, and can attend to pet care duties before, in between, and after my classes. I am open to over night stays and higher-maintenance care tasks, such as providing care for animals that require behavioral or psychiatric support during their family members absence. I enjoy playing with pets, within their boundaries of comfort. I have become apt at recognizing animals mood states, so I can properly respond to fear, excitement, anxiety, pulling on the leash, and over reactivity as necessary. I enjoy taking dogs on frequent walks if that is comfortable for them, and give occasional treats to reward 'good' behavior, such as sitting or laying down on command, and waiting to be fed. I am comfortable being cuddly with animals, and being very close and physical with them, if that fits in their boundaries. In my apartment I cannot host dogs, however, there are many parks and fields right in my backyard that I can bring your dogs to that they will enjoy.
About: My first formal pet sitting experience was taking out and playing with my uncle’s black lab puppy after school, my senior year of high school. Then, that same year I pet my aunt’s 2 cats in 2016. During the pandemic, for over a year, I stayed at my friend’s house while she was away at work. I would take her precious pup Lala out for walks, give Lala and her cat-sister Sophia their meds with breakfast, and treat them like the princesses they are. I recently left law school, so my availability is completely free until I find a full-time job! I would love to set your mind at ease by visiting your home as often as you’d like! I would care for my clients’ pets the same way I care for my cat-son, Remy. I give him all the attention he desires, and I do the less-than-desireable things (like washing his litterbox monthly, clipping his nails, and brushing his teeth) with a smile because I know it’s what’s best for him.
“Madeline, thank you for being with Anka and making her feel loved, reassuring her everything was okay even with me gone for a few days. This was the first time she was without me since we teamed up full-time. Meant the world to me to leave her in her own house to walk her neighborhood, hang out in her garden, and watch the birds through the window. Thank you also for respecting my house and leaving it clean and neat. Blessings and much gratitude.”

“Ezra is AMAZING!! I cannot recommend them enough!! My dog and I have been absolutely spoiled by their care! Ezra is the sweetest human you will ever meet and they genuinely love animals! Ezra went above and beyond to put not only my dog (a senior citizen with separation anxiety) at ease but myself as well!! Ezra only watched my dog for about 9 hours but the two of them had many great adventures. As well as a long romp in the snow. Ezra was always quick to respond to me (before, during and after my booking) and really took the time to reassured me. They also sent me a plethora of pictures of their activities together. If I am ever in the area again I will without a doubt be booking with Ezra again!!”

“Candace was amazing! I was worried leaving my 7 wk old puppy but they did wonderfully! Candace kept me posted with pics and made sure he was well taken care of! Definitely will be using again and recommend!”
About: Ive had three cats and two dogs in my life. Currently I have two cats and they are my world. In many instances I've had a cat or dog that doesn't like anyone besides family come up and become my new best friend. Also have been trusted to watch multiple friends animals while on vacation because they loved our time together more than anyone else. During the week it would be a drop in sitting with minimal overnight stays after work. Which means its not out the question but not consistent. Weekends I have more flexibility for overnight stays. My cats are indoors, fed a heathly diet, and stimulated. While at the clients house its dependent on the type of animal and if the animal requires special care.

About: Hi! I’m Emma, and I absolutely love animals! 🐾 I’m a proud pet mom to a husky mix, a cat, and a bearded dragon, and I truly believe pets are part of the family. I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, reptiles, and hamsters. I also worked at a doggy daycare in college and have experience with dog walks and drop-in visits. I love taking long walks, teaching dogs new tricks, and, of course, giving lots of cuddles! Whether your pet needs a long walk, some playtime, a little extra attention, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own—with lots of patience, attention, and love! ❤️ My schedule is very flexible, especially during the summer! I’m freely available for most of August, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Once the school year begins, I’m available for pet care before work on weekdays until 7 AM and after work starting around 4 PM. I’m also available throughout weekends, school holidays, and breaks. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and do my best to accommodate your schedule! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs and will follow your care instructions carefully. I’m attentive to details and will always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are secure. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels, and I’ll never force interaction if your pet needs space or time to warm up. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want from someone caring for my own animals. ❤️🐾

Jackie was quick to communicate, kind and great with our girls! We were visiting from out of town for a wedding and we appreciated that she made time for a meet & greet with the tight schedule. I knew our pups were in good hands so could enjoy our evening and time away - would book with her again!

Madeline did an outstanding job watching our 2 pomeranians. We set up a meet and greet prior to her staying. She was very thorough with everything and really wanted to know everything about our boys. During our vacation she did a wonderful job of sending pictures and even videos. She did not hesitate to reach out with any questions. We are very happy with Madeline and would book her again and recommend her. We came home to our home looking the same way we left it and our boys being happy and well cared for.

Unfortunately the day before going out of town I had to take one of my boys to the emergency vet. After the vet visit I felt confident in leaving my 2 boys in Marideth’s hands and her ability to administer meds since she did it for me a previous time she watched my boys. Marideth kept in constant contact with me on all updates with my boys. Unfortunately my other kitty started feeling ill too so poor Marideth had her hands full but handled it like a champ! I appreciate her attention to detail on her updates because it’s so important when it comes to our fur babies when they’re ill. I recommend Marideth to anyone looking for a pet sitter! I look forward to a time in the future where I have her watch my boys and she doesn’t have to deal with medicating them and can just truly enjoy their company the whole time lol. Thank you Marideth!

Madeline was wonderful. Arrived at our house early to put us at ease before our flight. Very kind to our labs and she seemed to enjoy them by sending funny anticdotes or commentary on their behavior. Our pups are super kind but needy with hugs and attention. She was clearly fine with reciprocating hugs and love. She also cared for our house and plants. We would absolutely use her again and plan to!

Taylor was absolutely amazing! She watched our dog Winnie while we went to the Buffalo Bills game, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She came right to our hotel and stayed with him, played with him, took him for a walk, fed him, and made sure he was happy and comfortable the entire time. She even sent us pictures and updates, which gave us such peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy the game without worrying about him. It was obvious that Taylor genuinely loves animals and treated our dog like he was her own. We are so grateful we found her and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dependable dog sitter. We will definitely be calling her again whenever we’re in the area!

I can’t recommend Tiffany enough! She was able to help us out with a last-minute request, and was super easy to work with. She came for a meet and greet and was so sweet to our cat. Charlie (the cat) has been anxious to be left alone for long periods of time since her sister passed last year, so I really needed someone to spend time with her and give her the attention we normally would. Tiffany did exactly that and then some! She sent lots of updates and pictures, and I knew that Charlie was being doted on so I could fully relax while away. Tiffany is clearly an animal lover and it shows in her care! She followed all of our instructions to the letter AND left our apartment in tip top shape. I will definitely be working with her again!

I’m back again! 😁😁 After the amazing experience I had the first time, there was no question about who I was booking with again. What was originally just one stay while I was in Puerto Rico turned into me rebooking because I knew Penelope and Pablo would be in the best hands. Judith continues to go above and beyond. She keeps me updated, communicates so well, and treats my dogs with so much love and care. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and comfortable while I’m away. Thank you again, Judith, for everything you do! 🫶🏽🫶🏽

This is the third time Jessica's watched my very ancient dog, Bob, and he's not easy to watch. Bob gets medication daily, can't go up or down stairs, and needs a lot of care. She always comes when she says she will, stays until I need her, and she's been wonderfully flexible when my flights have been late (which is lucky, but so greatly appreciated). She leaves the house just as found, and I would highly recommend her!
