Jamie is fantastic! She is an excellent sitter as well as trainer. She is currently helping us with both. She has a gift with anxious dogs and is very knowledgeable about behavior as well. She educated us and collaborated with us on a plan for my dog that is very picky about which humans he trusts. Overall, she is very helpful, kind, and in tune with the specific dog’s needs!

Karlie is great! We met Karlie at the dog park before her drop-in with our puppy overnight. She clearly loves animals, and is very knowledgeable about pet care. She will be our first ask for dog-sitting in the future :)

Anthony is very punctual, polite and handles my dog with confidence and experience which makes me feel comfortable. My dog is large and can be a challenge but it does not intimidate Anthony. I would definitely recommend him.

Meghan does a wonderful job taking care of dogs. I've seen her take care of several different dogs at various times (her own and others') and she's always mindful of making sure they're taken care of. Unlike other dog owners I know, she prioritizes their needs and does not, for example, procrastinate letting them out of doors or giving them water. She also gives them heaps of love and affection. I would absolutely entrust any of my pets to her care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my since I was about 8. My family and friends often rely on me for suitable pet care. I am currently on summer break from school so I have a odd amount of free-time and I’m looking to build a new productive routine. I understand that this is a place that will be familiar to the pet in comparison to me so I can familiarize myself with the home and the pet to better accommodate.

Very attentive and professional sitter who took perfect care of my cat while I was away. Followed all directions and left a detailed review after each visit (including pictures). Especially considering the competitive pricing, I would fully recommend Nhi to anyone looking for a sitter. I’ll be using Nhi exclusively for my future cat-sitting needs.

Anne took exceptional care of our cat while we were away for five days. We received a thorough update each day, which we were so thankful to receive. Though we had just met Anne a few days before our trip, we quickly felt like we had known her for much longer. She is kind, responsive, and dependable—a perfect caretaker for beloved pets. We will definitely ask Anne to cat sit for us again and highly recommend her!

Lou is someone I would allow to watch my pets and know that I could leave them and not check in for hours and know they would still receive the same care as if I were home myself. I mean someone who can work as a traveling vet assistant and be handed a cat from a client because they could sense that they would have a good home with Lou should be enough of a clue. Lou has such a kind and humble persona that makes pets automatically feel at ease. If you’re looking for someone to care for your pets Lou is the one for you !

Moriah was awesome! We have two kitties, both on anti anxiety medication (mixed in with food). They're also both incredibly shy. Moriah did an incredible job: the kitties came out of hiding to play with her; she also was able to make sure both ate their meds. We were surprised and happy that she had such success, as they're very shy! We also have a litter robot and it was acting up; Moriah was able to troubleshoot, and get it working again. We're also hugely grateful she was able to provide care during Christmas, that's a tough time to be available, and we're grateful that she was willing to do it.

As a child she watched my boy Bruiser ( the original goldendoodles) She is an EMT, works for Rosamand Gifford Zoo, Stack veterinary, and is a biology major at Syracuse University.

About: I’ve been taking care of family pets for many years, but have started caring for others animals over the last 5 years. I often care for neighbors’ pets during vacations that typically go 10+ days. I’ll make an effort to fit your family’s needs, so just let me know what you’re looking for! I currently have a very open schedule, as long as proper notice is given. I am available all days of the week, and am open to working any time of day. My family has personally always had many pets, whether that be dogs, cats, or reptiles. Through experience I’ve learned proper safety measures depending on which pet needs care. Clear communication and expectations from both pet owners and myself make for a good experience where your pet’s specific needs are met.

Emma is the greatest!! I have a 9 year old German Shepard with lots of energy and anxiety - Emma's consistency and kind approach has been extremely beneficial for my fur baby! She is responsible, on time and hard working. If you love your pet and want someone who will care for them as much as you do, consider Emma. You will not be disappointed!
