Angelica was so great with our 1 year old lab, bowie. She came two nights in a row to look after him and she was so attentive. She played with him and took him out on walks -- we were able to not worry while we were gone. Thank you Angelica!

About: Having grown up with a dog, what sets me apart is my focus on high-needs care and consistency. Your pet can be my 'co-worker' for the day, receiving constant attention and structured play. I'm comfortable with medication schedules and slow-paced mobility walks. You can expect frequent photo updates and a calm, pet-first environment As a remote professional, I offer the 'work-from-home' advantage: your pet will have a constant companion throughout the day which is ideal for most dogs. Your pet will always be treated like family! We start with a slow introduction, ensuring they feel safe and confident. I provide a structured day with frequent potty breaks, interactive play, and plenty of lap time. When sitting in your home, my priority is maintaining your pet's 'normal.' I follow your feeding and exercise schedules to the minute to minimize anxiety. I also take great care of your space, possibly watering plants, and ensuring your home is secure and tidy so you can return to a happy pet and a peaceful house.

About: I’ve lived with animals my whole life; at both houses we had at least 3 cats and 3 dogs at a time with the occasional hamster, rat, snake, or rabbit. I’ve adopted most of my pets from shelters, and have helped raised two litters (one was kittens, the other was puppies). Having a wide variety of animals introduced me to a wide array of personality types from friendly and cuddly to moody or shy. These experiences have taught me to have an abundance of patience and understanding, and to be able to adapt to individual needs. The animals I’ve watched/raised/trained have been all different breeds and sizes; from a 3 pound chihuahua to a 85 pound German/Pitt mix. I’ve taken care of older dogs, who need extra care, as well as sick dogs and/or dogs with preexisting conditions who require medications once, twice, or three times a day. Not only have I helped with my animals, but I’ve watched other peoples houses/pets as well. I’m pretty much a homebody, so aside from a couple hours each day, I’m available and flexible and can hangout with your pets for as long as you need. I’m a great communicator too, so if an issue were to arise, I will reach out right away because your pet’s health and well-being is my top priority. I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is open and flexible. I do prefer a couple of days of notice in advanced, unless it’s an emergency. I will take care of your pet however you need me to. When it comes your pets health and well-being, I know you know what’s best, and I will never disrespect your wants or needs. If you need me to house sit, I will respect your property. I’m very neat, organized, and clean (slightly OCD) so I would never leave a mess.

About: I’ve taken care of different types of dogs at my house. I have experiences with walking small medium and large dogs. I have also experience with special needs dogs. And I have experience with going to the pet’s house. Im currently only working with pet care. I can walk dogs any days of the week/weekend. And boarding is also available any days, especially weekends. I have a little dog to be a company to your fur baby. I’m really careful about following the dog’s usual routine. I am really careful about going out with the dogs, I make sure they’re secure, so they don’t get lost.

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs since I can remember. I trained my corgi when he was a puppy and even taught my cat some tricks! I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I believe that all pets deserve to feel loved, comfortable, and safe while their owners are away! I’m currently a college student, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I have time all throughout the day, from the morning to the evening, to play with them! Having pets of my own, I understand the importance of routines and sticking to a schedule. I will ensure that your pets feel safe, loved, and normal while you are gone. I always prioritize making sure that pets are comfortable around me and will do anything it takes to ensure that they are.

Our dog immediately became best friends with Casey at the meet and greet which put us at ease. Casey housesat for our dog for 3 nights. When we returned home, our dog was happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared-for. It was clear that Casey followed all of Cookie’s care instructions and gave her plenty of attention. Additionally, the house was in better condition than when we left it.

We had a nice experience with Akosua. She has watched our 9-month-old dog twice, and both visits went well. Our dog prefers having company rather than being alone, and this was our first time having someone watch him in our home. Hector seemed to like Akosua and was comfortable with her. We would be happy to book with her again.

Dawn was absolutely incredible with our two dogs! We needed a pet sitter for a last-minute trip, and she was so accommodating and agreed to help. Before we left, she came to our home for a meet-and-greet to get to know our dogs, learn their routines, and go over all the care instructions. That immediately gave peace of mind. Throughout our vacation, Dawn sent regular updates and photos, and it was clear she had really bonded with both of our dogs. She paid close attention to their unique personalities and behaviors, and it was obvious they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She also went above and beyond by washing the bed sheets before we returned home. After a long day of travel, coming home to a clean house and fresh sheets was such a thoughtful gesture and meant so much. Dawn is kind, reliable, communicative, and truly cares about the pets she looks after. We will absolutely hire her again.

Ligia took such great care of our dog Teddy as well as our house while we were gone for 2 weeks. Ligia sent us lots of pictures and was very responsive while we were out. We are so grateful that Teddy was able to stay with someone so caring in an environment that he was used to while we were gone. Ligia also helped water the plants, bring in packages, put away groceries, etc while we were gone. We would definitely recommend Ligia to anyone looking for petcare needs! We would love to hire Ligia again in the future!

Margot spent two weeks with our dog Akiva at our home while we were away on vacation. Akiva is a 5 year old GSD who greatly values personal attention from his people, including his play time, training regimen and walking routine. Margot worked with us prior to our departure to learn Akiva's habits and ways to keep him happy and healthy in our absence. She's responsible and reliable, and it was clear from the regular updates and pictures that she sent us that she developed a genuine rapport with Akiva. She took great care of our home and plants as well. We already have our next house sitting with Margot on the books, and will be counting on her in the future. Thank you Margot!

Caroline was amazing with our rescue dachshund Tella. She was so empathetic to us and Tella who just lost the other half of her bonded pair, and took Tella on with such patience since we all didn’t quite know how she’d handle being dog-watched alone for the first time. Caroline also messaged regularly with so many picture updates to comfort us knowing we probably had more separation anxiety than Tella did! As a pet owner of a somewhat difficult rescue dachshund - and if you know dachshunds you know what I mean- i was worried about finding the right sitter and Caroline went above and beyond.

Almarah was wonderful! My wife’s flight was delayed so we asked to adjust the schedule and she did so very quickly and with no complaints. She arrived on time and Oden was immediately cuddled up to her. She sent us photos of their walks and responded to any questions. We know who we’ll call next time we’re out of town.

This is the first time I have hired Devika to take care of my dog for a couple of days. We had a very pleasant "Meet and Greet" beforehand and my dog took to her right away. She was prompt to arrive and followed my instructions thoroughly for feeding , daily walks, etc. My home looked immaculate as well when I returned. I would definitely hire her again.

This is the second review I've written for Larissa, and it is well deserved. She is reliable, professional, and a good communicator, which gives me peace of mind when I travel. I used to feel stressed leaving my dog behind, but now I genuinely feel at ease knowing she is in such good hands. My dog absolutely adores her, and it's clear that there is genuine care and affection between them. I'm so grateful to have found someone I trust so fully with my dog.
