“We were very happy with the care that Jennifer gave to our dog. This was our first experience leaving our dog so we were nervous but Jennifer made us feel comfortable and sent pictures each day. Jennifer is very experienced and well trained in dealing with different types of dogs.”
“Ethel Mae’s proxy parents, Jessica and Charles, continue to make her feel right at home. And I mean RIGHT at home! They both indulge her. We are so happy to have found them.”
“Brandy did such a great job watching my dog! She was super prompt, communicative, and flexible, and sent lots of pictures while I was away. Will definitely go back to her again!”
“Our pup had so much fun staying with Charles! She had lots of attention, cuddles, and playtime with puppy pals. I love that she wasn't put in a kennel and was allowed to sleep in a home environment.”
“On a scale of 1 to 10, Liz is a 10+ dog boarder/caregiver. It was quite apparent in the photos and videos she sent that my 2 girls felt loved and were very happy. They made new fur friends, having such a fun time playing with Liz's 2 oh so sweet pups. I would highly recommend Liz if you need dog boarding services.”
About: Hello! My name is Alyssa and I am a 20 year old college student remotely studying Psychology and Criminal Justice. I’ve had dogs and a cat since I was young and was always held accountable to take care of them! I took a Veterinary Science class in High School and dealt with animals on a daily during this course (Bunnies and Puppies.) I have recently owned hamsters and fish as well that were 100% my responsibility. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have 4 years of paid experience with pet sitting for neighbors. Animals deserve the world and I love to make a difference in their lives even if they don’t understand it :) I am also willing to negotiate pricing based off your animals energy/need for attention/etc. Please reach out to me with any additional questions and I’d be happy to answer! I am currently a college student who is taking online courses to work on getting my degree. Other than daily assignments, I have no other daily commitments and will be available 90% of the time, other than my planned unavailability on my calendar! I have a large front and back yard with plenty of room to play. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat but she keeps to herself and is never a bother. I could easily keep her separated from your pet. If in your home, I will be sure to take all the steps you request and go above and beyond to ensure you and your animals are comfortable.
“I don’t think my dogs wanted to come home after staying with Susy. She went above and beyond to ensure they were well cared for and happy. I trust her implicitly and will use her again the next time I leave town.”
“Margaret was wonderful! My dog looked like she was on her own vacation at Margarets house. She would send me pictures of Lucy playing in the yard and what bedding Lucy picked. Lucy loved being at Margarets house. I highly recommend Margaret!”
“As always, the pups came home tired and happy!”
“Cameron is a great sitter. Jupiter absolutely loved her stay. Plus its the perfect connection to nature for ,my pup. Very communicative and sweet!”
“GREAT with our dog! She is a dog lover and gave Elsa the run of her home. Sent videos and called with updates. Would absolutely use her again!!”
“Madelyn, can you please call or text us? Annie and Bear forgot their food dishes at your house, I think. Thanks! Maggie 732-233-0492.”
“Ellie took great care of my pup after needing care on short notice. Very understanding and nice. Thank you so much for taking care of my fur baby!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for my own pets, including a 13-year-old senior dog who requires daily medication, along with two other dogs and two cats. I’m used to managing feeding routines, medication schedules, and giving each pet the individual attention they need. While I have little experience in dog-sitting for clients, I treat every animal like family and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and love when caring for pets. I’m a stay-at-home mom, who is in school part-time so I am extremely flexible during the week, and on weekends. Times during the day are also flexible as long as I receive a notice 1 day in advance. I have a fenced yard, three friendly dogs, and two cats (separated at night). My dogs are crate-trained, and I have a toddler—we practice safe, respectful pet interactions. I also offer in-home care and am happy to dog sit in your home for pets who feel more comfortable in their own space. Whether at my house or yours, your pet will be safe, loved, and well cared for.
About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes! I have a little dachshund named steel who is a couch potato with the occasional zoomies as well as a 6 year old son who loves anything furry and sweet. I work 8:30-3 but only 7 mins from home and can pop in on my lunch if needed. Otherwise home and ready to play with fur babies I do not have a fenced in yard but do have space where they could get their zoomies out. Welcome to be on furniture and even better if they snuggle my kiddo in bed.
“Carol was awesome! She was able to take Bandit pretty last minute for a few days. Her dog got along great with mine so she was a real champ having both of them running around her all day! I felt so comfortable having her take care of my boy and really appreciate her!”
“Ryley was amazing! She was always quick to respond and super flexible! She kept me updated and I could tell Holly was happy because she wasn't ready to leave when I came to get her! I will definitely be booking with Ryley again!”
About: I have two very active labs and a french bulldog in my house and a cat of my own. I also always love taking care of my family’s pets. I am currently a full time student at Elon available to assist in drop in vists/walking in the evening on weekdays and available for house sitting on weekends. I will guarantee safety and wellbeing to pets during walks, grooming, and feeding and ensure great communication and trust with pet owners throughout the duration of the visit.
“Kindra was a pleasure to work with. The fur babies totally enjoyed her company and she took very good care of them. Will definitely work with her again! thanks Kindra!”
“Ashley T. was terrific! With many years of experience, this mild-mannered, petite yet confident dog sitter immediately knew how to care for and manage my Giant Pyrenees Doodle- all 75 pounds of him. I felt good about leaving my huge fur baby with her for my out of town trip. During my dog's stay, Ashley periodically sent photos and updates. This was most comforting and I was able to enjoy my long needed trip. I highly recommend Ashley T. and will hire her again and again.”

I had to go out of town on short notice and I had reached out to Alyssa, she was very responsive and the communication with her while I was away was fantastic. I have two dog's, one of which needs medication. Alyssa was able to make sure that the medication was delivered on time and let me know that my baby had taken her medicine. I am very happy with Alyssa and how she conducted herself, she is such a professional. I know in the future that I will not have to worry while I'm away for work. My babies are in good hands with Alyssa. 5 out of 5 stars for Alyssa.”
