“Lauren was very communicative, left the apartment extremely clean, followed instructions, and took good care of our dog. When our trip got extended by a few hours, Lauren was very understanding and accommodating of staying with our dog a bit longer to close the gap. My neighbor also reached out saying that she saw Lauren with our dog in the hallway of our building and that she was doing a great job with her. Overall, we would definitely hire Lauren again!”

“Mirren was a dream. During our meet and greet, she was attentive to our directions and sweet to our pooches. She communicates well and often and wasn't afraid to ask questions. I really appreciated her easy going manner and ability to deal with unexpected hiccups. We would definitely use her again!”

“Navya is amazing. She is very communicative, thoughtful, and takes care of my cat amazingly. She also leaves the apartment looking so nice. I highly recommend her.”

“Kymberlee is wonderful and was so attentive with our two big dogs and two cats. We received updates and silly photos of the animals. Even though we had to change plans due to the snowstorm, she stayed flexible and kept us updated about everything. We would highly recommend her!”

“Adelia was extremely communicative and provided updates on Mookie throughout her stay. She was great about maintaining his everyday routine, including managing his separation anxiety medication. I’d highly recommend her services for anyone looking for a great sitter!”

“Katelyn was super flexible in watching my pup Ran’na last minute. Ran’na takes time to warm up to strangers but loved Katelyn immediately! I will definitely be rebooking Katelyn next time I need someone to keep Ran’na company.”

“Amazing! Kai took such great care of my dog; gave him a ton of attention and took him out to meet his family which was very sweet. Rio seemed to have a blast with him, I will absolutely be using Kai again in the future. Thank you!”

“Dylan did a great job watching our fur babies! She house sat and watched our cat and dog, sending us regular updates and leaving the place better than she found it! Thanks Dylan!”

“Mark always goes above and beyond, leaving your pup (and place) better than he found it. He’s a natural when it comes to dogs. Not only does he provide ample care for your pup, he encourages good behaviors and reinforces training. He will always be my go-to man for dog sitting, as both my dog and I adore him. Thanks for all you do Mark!”

“Christina is consistently incredible! She had to deal with a high stress situation (completely out of her control) while taking care of my dogs and handled it beautifully. Incredible sitter, and would recommend to anybody!”

“Russell was an excellent sitter in our home for our demanding cat while we were away for 10 days. He sent lots of pictures and asked good questions. It was super clear how much he cared about her well-being and loves animals. We would highly recommend Russell as a pet/house-sitter!”

“Amazing! He was kind and gentle with my cats. Followed all my instructions and left my place nice and clean. My cats really liked him and I will definitely be hiring him again if I need a sitter!”

“Savina did a great job with our dog Rosie! Rosie has pretty intense separation anxiety and Savina was super understanding and gave us great, detailed updates and pictures throughout our trip.”

“Mark was amazing with our dog, going above and beyond with him when we were out of town. We have a high energy dog and mark took him on several long walks. He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, especially cats, so I naturally understand their Needs and unique personalities. Even though I’ve never owned a dog of my own, I’ve cared for many dogs through friends and family — from puppies who need full attention to older dogs who need extra patience and care. I also have experience giving pets oral medication, so I’m comfortable following special routines. My goal is always to give each pet the same love, comfort, and attention I’d want for my own! I am currently a full-time student at Howard University so I have class everyday. With any free time I have on my hands not studying or in class, I’d love to help! Im happy to take your pets on walks, give them fresh food and water, and spend quality time with them so they feel cared for while you're away. Im gentle and attentive, making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Building trust is very important to me, and treat one like my own! :)
“We recently had the pleasure of having Stephanie house sit for me while I was away for a 6 day work trip/vacation. As a Doberman owner, finding someone who understands and connects with my dog, Ruger, is paramount. Stephanie exceeded all expectations and was truly exceptional in every way. From our initial meeting, it was clear that Stephanie had a genuine love for dogs and an understanding of the specific needs and personalities of Dobermans. They were incredibly attentive to Ruger, taking the time to learn about his routine, his likes and dislikes, and even his quirky habits. Stephanie’s approach was both professional and personal, which made me feel confident in their ability to care for Ruger in my absence. During my trip, Stephanie provided frequent updates with photos and videos, showing Ruger playing, going on walks, and even learning to have more focused and calm walks! It was evident that Ruger was not just being cared for but was also enjoying a lovely time. Stephanie also managed the house impeccably, ensuring everything was clean and in order upon my return. What set Stephanie apart was their ability to bond with Ruger. Dobermans can be selective, yet Ruger clearly respected with Stephanie, showing a level of trust and affection that he reserves for few people. This bond was the ultimate reassurance for me that Ruger was in the best hands. Stephanie is not just a house sitter; they are a compassionate and skilled individual with a deep understanding of dogs (and other animals). I wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced sitter, especially for those with Dobermans or similar breeds. Stephanie has become my go-to person for pet and house sitting, and I am truly grateful for the peace of mind and care they provided. Ruger is even more well behaved than before and we are looking forward to having Stephanie over again!”

Jennifer took impeccable care of our beagles Meadow and Biscuit! She was super response/communicative, and we felt like our pups (and home!) were in amazing hands from the get-go. We could not recommend her more, and will absolutely be reaching out in the future when we need a sitter. Thanks so much Jennifer!!

We so enjoyed having Miaki stay with Goose and Roo while we were out of town. Miaki is very communicative and thorough - we appreciated that she came by to meet the dogs beforehand and proactively asked questions to ensure that the dogs would be well taken care of in our absence. Miaki sent daily updates throughout our trip, and we can home to very happy dogs. We look forward to Miaki’s next visit and are sure our dogs will be excited to see her too.
I have a husky that is very outgoing but has a bad case of separation anxiety and Katie knew exactly how to handle it during our house sitting! She was great at depicting his personality and handling him in a situation where a bunch of kids ran up to him to say hi. She kept my place spotless and kept me updated with the perfect amount of cute pictures of my pup! 10/10 would recommend!

Amy is a gem! We did not plan on having a small kitten along with our two adult cats when we planned a trip, and realized a house sitter was needed to continue monitoring and acclimating our cat fam. Amy responded to all communication promptly, sent pics and updates throughout, and left our house immaculate. We came home to cats who were relaxed and happy. Highly recommend Amy's services, she is a trustworthy professional.

I am so lucky to have found Lauren. She is so good with my dog who has a lot of separation anxiety but he quickly warmed up to her wonderful personality and is so comfortable with her. I can’t praise her enough. She always keeps me updated and will continue to be our #1 go to :)
