“Christina took excellent care of our apartment, Casey cat, and Rowdy (a recently adopted 5-month old kitten we were nervous about leaving.) We got plenty of reports and pictures, and the cats were very mellow when we got home.”

“Connie was great! Our dogs really enjoyed her and we actually ran into her on a walk with them coming back to our apartment, and the dogs were willing to keep walking despite seeing us!”
“Dominique is easy to work with, communicative, and responsive! She stayed with our dog for a few days and took great care of her and our apartment. We will definitely work with Dominique again.”


About: I’ve always had a dog in my household and understand the need for love, play, and care. My parents have a samoyed and border collie, which are highly active dogs, and I make it my priority to spend time with them outside whenever I visit home. I’m currently unemployed so I’m available from 9-4 during the weekdays. I can also do weekends, but my schedule changes every so often but can be worked out! I have plenty of toys, trees, scratchers, and space to watch your pets. I do not use plug-in scents, candles, or any harsh cleaning chemicals.
“Acoya took great care of my two dogs. I came home to 2 happy pups. She made sure to care for them based on my preference and their normal schedule. She respected my home and had great communication through the whole process (meet and greet, picking up the key, and the actual time spent caring for the dogs)”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old and can’t imagine life without them. From volunteering at shelters to pet sitting, walking, and fostering, animals have always been a huge part of my world. Now at 27, I bring over 19 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments including seniors and pets who need special care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and house sitting. I’m comfortable administering medications . I’ve also helped with basic training and behavior support. As a former teacher, I bring an extra level of responsibility, trustworthiness, and calm presence to the pets and families I work with. My schedule is typically flexible on the weekends and on weekdays I am able to provide direct care before and after work hours. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s unique needs and routine where I can. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need a helping hand, I’d love to be your go-to pet care person. I treat every animal like family because they are. My top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I take time to get to know each animal’s personality and needs so I can provide personalized care that feels familiar and stress-free. In your home, I make sure your pet stays on their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I keep their environment clean, cozy, and calm, and I always respect your space and preferences. I provide lots of love, attention, and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Kate was so wonderful with our dog! She was very communicative, sent plenty of photos and updates, and took great care of our space. We felt very safe with our dog in her care! Would definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of or have had animals since I was a child. Currently I have a cat named Ida who is very sweet & affectionate. I always strive for a 5-star experience, but my top priority will always be the safety of the pets in my care. I chose to refuse a request to take a cat outside without a harness, as the flight risk was far too high. It resulted in a low rating, but I will never compromise an animal's safety. I just graduated with a Master’s of Social Work. Before beginning my career, I’m taking some down time and taking care of animals. This gives me the ability to prioritize your pets needs! My environment is animal friendly. I have a fenced in back yard and live near a park. I have a cat named Ida who is welcoming to new animals inside our home. I allow animals on my bed and furniture.
“Dominique was friendly and a great sitter for my girl Millie! I was only gone for a couple days but she still sent updates throughout the weekend, letting me know what they got up to together and how Millie was doing with her meals and potty time. I appreciated her communication and flexibility as she balanced Millie’s routine with her own dog’s needs. Thank you Dominique!”

About: I'm passionate about pet care. Any special or particular requests you have I can accommodate! I've cared for dogs with all kinds of temperament. I'm great at getting dogs to calm down and feel comfortable. I'd love to meet your furry family member! I'm open to pet sitting throughout the week! I work from home so I'm very flexible. My only real restrictions are sufficient notice and transport! I always strive for being as respectful as possible in other people's space, but especially when it comes to pet care! I usually read a lot when pet sitting, and I'm amenable to any restrictions when it comes to being in your home.
About: Experience with cats in various life stages: raised kittens, teenage rascals, adults and mature fur babies. I love to facilitate play and keep cats engaged. I work full time and personally have two kittens that I care for daily. Pet care doesn’t feel like a task to me because I’m passionate about their well being and have so much joy around them. In my home, I provide toys to keep them stimulated and play cat tv to keep them happy. I don’t have an automatic feeder so I plate their meals early mornings and late nights. I keep them in a cozy environment with pillows and blankets so they can nap. Cats favorite hobby lol
“maia was wonderful, very communicative and respectful. peanutis an anxious dog and she was nice and calm when we got home. will definitely be booking her to hang out with peanut again”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my family. Growing up we had dogs and cats that were central to our lives. We even rescued a possum that we raised for 2 years. Six years ago, my partner and I adopted our corgi, Pippin. He is truly my child and the household revolves around him. Pippin unfortunately has some neurological issues that we have worked diligently through, working with trainers, vets, and behaviorists to give him the best quality of life possible. I have become very attuned to dog body behavior and managing fear-based aggression as well as resource guarding. I also am familiar with finding a “job” for herding breeds and can teach different commands, tricks, and games. I am comfortable administering oral, eye, and ear medications. I have experience with everything from letting a puppy out in the middle of the night to helping my parents take care of their large breed senior dogs. While dogs are more center stage in my life today, I also have a lot of love for all cats, from cuddle bugs to independent hermits. I believe It’s important that we adapt to each individual animal’s needs and focus on setting them up for success. I have a flexible in-office schedule and can work remotely as needed with enough notice. I am happy to work from your home if a full pet sit is needed or drop by for walks and play, depending on what kind of care you’re looking for. I will follow the directions you leave for taking care of your pet in your home. Whether that means they have full roam or are crated at times, I’m happy to keep their routine as normal as possible. I’m also happy to get on the floor and play or go for a long walk in the afternoon or evening.
“Ana was amazing with our two small dogs! She was super communicative and punctual, and we always felt confident that our pups were in great hands. She gave regular updates and made sure they were happy and comfortable the whole time. We’d definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of pets, from puppies, kittens, small dogs, large dogs and more. Senior dogs with medicinal needs are a breeze! I work remotely and have plenty of time to play with your pups and cats! I have two pups of my own who hang out with me and my partner all day! I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly pups who love to sun bathe. We love a game of tug or fetch and we love to snuggle.

About: Having grown up surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes, caring for pets is a lifelong passion that comes naturally to me. As a current dog owner, I deeply understand the day to day devotion, patience, and love required to keep a pet thriving. Over the years, I’ve built extensive hands on experience sitting and walking dogs for numerous families, comfortably handling everything from energetic puppies who need structured routine to gentle senior dogs who require an extra patient touch. I am fully confident working with all breeds, managing various temperaments, and safely administering medications. Whether it’s an energetic outdoor walk or a calm, attentive evening at home, I treat every dog in my care with the exact same dedication, safety, and affection I give my own. My hybrid work setup offers exceptional flexibility for pet care, allowing me to be fully present and available throughout the week. Because I only work in the office two days a week and work remotely the other three days, I can easily accommodate midday walks, drop-in visits, or house sitting. This flexible schedule ensures your dog will receive attentive, reliable care, flexible check-ins, and consistent companionship without distraction. To ensure the highest level of safety and comfort, I exclusively provide pet care in the client’s home, allowing your dog to stay happy and secure in their familiar environment. Being in their own space minimizes stress and keeps their regular routines uninterrupted. While caring for your pet, I prioritize safety above all else, ensuring doors and gates remain secure, maintaining clear feeding and exercise guidelines, and treating your home with total respect. I believe peace of mind comes from clear communication, so I provide frequent updates, photos, and notes after every visit or stay. You can rest easy knowing your dog is receiving attentive, high quality care and endless affection while you’re away.

About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was little and have always had a love for animals! I now have a pet cat of my own and often pet sit for family and friends of mine. I currently am a full time student and work as well. My evenings and weekends are full availability though, and I’m always free for last minute walks and drop in’s. Ever since I was little I’ve been a huge animal lover. I have experience with all different kinds dogs and cats, all of various sizes, ages, and behavior styles.

Zhanna was absolutely wonderful! She was super friendly, caring, and easy to communicate with. Toby and Mela both loved her and seemed so happy and comfortable with her. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely recommend Zhanna to anyone looking for a kind and reliable pet sitter, and we’d happily book with her again! 🐾
We booked Lynette on short notice for a week-long stay with our two Shibas, and she exceeded every expectation! She handled their quirks and initial separation anxiety with so much patience, kindness, and intuition. We loved getting great photo updates every single day! When one of our pups had a small accident the morning of departure, Lynette handled it immediately with total transparency, washing the sheets and all the towels without being asked. She left our home immaculate and our dogs completely happy and relaxed. Lynette is trustworthy, proactive, and a fantastic sitter—she will be our first call next time we travel!

We were gone for almost a week, and Arsema took such wonderful care of our little guy! She kept us informed of any health concerns she noticed and was incredibly accommodating, even helping us get medication we hadn’t originally discussed to make sure he was feeling his best. She sent us tons of videos and updates, and it was clear how happy and comfortable he was with her. She spent plenty of time playing with him, taking him on walks, and making sure he was well cared for. We would absolutely book with Arsema again! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our little boy and giving us peace of mind while we were away!

Evan is the best! He took amazing care of our elderly greyhound Winston and kept the house neat and tidy. Unfortunately, one of Winston’s prior medical issues flared up during our vacation, but Evan promptly notified me of the symptoms and happily agreed to take him to the vet. I was nervous about getting Winston there and back because he is a large dog with mobility issues, but Evan listened well to my suggestions about how to make the car rides as easy as possible, and Winston made the trip safe and sound. I felt very reassured the whole time that Winston was in good hands. I would not hesitate to rebook Evan’s services!

Eliana watched our two pups in our home for the weekend. She was very responsible and good with the dogs. Both of the pups are barkers and take a minute to warm up to new people. Eliana was patient with them and gave them space while they got comfortable. As a result they were cuddling her by the end of the day. She followed our walking and feeding requests and gave the pups lots of attention and playtime. She was tidy and respectful of our home - it was just as clean or cleaner than we left it. Overall great experience and we look forward to working with her again!

Syenna was an amazing sitter! My cats were very well loved and cared for. She was a great communicator, sent me lots of pictures of my cats and assured me of how they were doing, she was respectful of my apartment, and followed caring instructions great. Definitely a star sitter! Thanks, Syenna!

Mairead is so attentive and always sends plenty of updates, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. I can tell my cats are very comfortable with her and she always leaves my place clean which is much appreciated. I’m so grateful to have someone I trust taking care of my cats. Highly recommend!

Stephanie took such great care of our dog Whiskey and our place!! She helped us out last minute and was so wonderful!! Stephanie sent us pictures and updates and we really appreciated the great communication!! Whiskey loved his time with her and we would love to have her back in the future!!

Elena is truly a gem. We have a tall order with our pups who are anxious and require quite a bit of love and Elena has things handled every time whether it’s a walk or nearly 2 weeks of pet sitting. She is communicative, detail oriented on all needs, and genuinely loves on our pups.

Anastasiia was absolutely incredible with my sweet pup, Stevie. She kept me hyper informed, was great with her meds, took lots of pics & communicated often. She also took great care of my apartment - which has been a miss with a lot of Rovers in the past. 5 stars for sure!!
