“If I could give Kimberlee more than five stars, I would! From the moment we met her, it was clear she was incredibly conscientious, detail-oriented, and genuinely cared about giving Scooby the very best care. Our dog, Scooby, is anxious around other dogs and does much better staying in her own home with a trusted person. Kimberlee was absolutely perfect for her. She was accommodating, thoughtful, and went above and beyond in every way. She kept us updated with wonderful photos, and honestly, you could see in every single one how much Scooby adored her. As pet parents, that kind of peace of mind is priceless. Knowing she was not only safe but truly happy allowed us to completely relax and enjoy our time away. It takes a special person to earn the trust of an anxious dog, and Kimberlee did just that with patience, kindness, and genuine affection. We are beyond grateful that she was Scooby’s person while we were away. I cannot recommend Kimberlee highly enough, and we will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you, Kimberlee, for taking such incredible care of our girl!”

“We want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Heather for taking great of our pet yorkie Winnie while we were away. Winnie is 4.5 years old and we have never left him before, so finding the right person was very important to us. We wanted an experienced person who was willing to stay in our home for two weeks to care for Winnie. In Heather we found someone who is experienced, caring, consistently communicates and sends pictures. Heather kept us informed and responded to all our messages very quickly. That was greatly appreciated. It’s clear that Winnie loved having Heather take care of him. We came home to a happy pup and were impressed how clean our house was. We appreciate Heather’s attention, patience and support, as well as her willingness to stay in our home for two weeks. Everything was in perfect shape when we returned. It gave us peace of mind knowing Winnie was in experienced, capable and caring hands. Heather also went beyond just caring for Winnie by doing a variety of things around our house, including bringing in our mail daily. Heather did a great job.”

“Karina and Teresa, both came to hang with our pups during Christmas while we took a day trip to visit family. Not only did they come in clutch with accepting the kinda-last-minute holiday need, but they were PERFECT for our dogs. They were super communicative and kind and from the minute they met our dogs, till the moment we got home, our dogs loved them and we knew they were in good hands. I’d say book them immediately, but we also selfishly want them all to ourselves! You can’t go wrong with trusting Karina and Teresa with your babies ❤️”

“Wow this is a game changer!!! My dog is 16 and lately it has been difficult leaving him overnight. I was a little hesitant to have a stranger stay overnight with Scruff. But when I met Kayla, all of concerns were squashed. Her and Scruffy immediately hit it off. Kayla is young and energetic, which definitely is a plus. Scruffy needs to get out moving around more 😏. When I reached out during my trip she responded quickly, without overwhelming me. Especially with Scruffy being older he has some quirks. He also can have accidents in the house or gets sick. Kayla reached out to understand if this was concerning. (It wasn't’). I have had friends who have called panicking. This caused me to either leave early or be stressed for the entirety of my trip. Kalya’s laid back and chill personality made me feel even more relaxed and comfortable that I had decided to go with her. When we got home the place looked great and Scruff wasn’t as anxious as he usually is when I get home, which was a relief 😅. Scuffy was happy to see me of course but I can tell he misses Kayla already. Without hesitation I recommend Kayla, to anyone with a pet.”

About: I’ve grown up in a home with dogs and have always been comfortable around them. I had a Labrador before, so I’m very familiar with daily care, routines, and spending time with dogs. I graduated from UC Davis with a degree in Animal Science in 2025 and also have some experience interning at a vet clinic, which helped me better understand animal health and behavior. Since summer 2024, I’ve been helping friends with dog sitting, walking, and boarding. I’ve done three long-term stays (over a month each), so I’m comfortable caring for dogs for extended periods and helping them settle in. I’m responsible, patient, and happy to send updates and photos while you’re away! I’m currently a student, but I have good availability in the mornings before 8am and in the evenings after 5pm, so I’m able to do walks and spend quality time with your dog during those hours. I’m also flexible on weekends and can adjust based on your pet’s routine. I’m happy to follow their usual schedule to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I live in an apartment right now, but I make sure pets have a clean, safe, and comfortable space. I take dogs out for regular walks and make sure they get enough exercise, attention, and care throughout the day. I pay close attention to their behavior and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, routines, and any special needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease.

“I was so, so very happy with my decision to hire Heather to watch my dogs! She was responsive, to-the-minute on time, kept me updated, and just in general really gave me a strong sense of confidence in her reliability and responsibility. She was even nice about my dog who hates going out in the rain and thus occasionally has accidents in the house (and he did, during her visit, because it was raining). I will absolutely be asking to hire her again; I am just very, very happy with the quality of care she brought to my pups! Very happy to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”

About: I have always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs and other pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I am responsible, patient, and dependable. I enjoy feeding, walking, playing with, and giving pets plenty of attention and love while their owners are away. I will make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! As a Division I student-athlete at the University of New Haven, I have learned how to manage a busy schedule and stay organized. Between classes, practices, games, and studying, I make sure to plan ahead and set aside specific times for pet care. I’m responsible with my time and understand the importance of being dependable, so I only accept pet-sitting jobs that fit into my schedule. This allows me to give each pet the attention and care they deserve while still balancing my responsibilities as a student-athlete. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone in your home and with your pet. I will always treat your home with care and respect, following any instructions you provide and keeping everything clean and secure. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, while also giving you updates so you can have peace of mind. My goal is to provide reliable, respectful, and trustworthy care every time.

Although I hate to say this out loud for fear of them booking up too fast 🤫 they were wonderful… faced with wind, rain and a power outage not to mention a lively 9 month old pup, they took great care of him. They also shared some practical training tips! I would not hesitate to call on them again!

Geordie is a stubborn lovable Corgi who has never been left with a sitter before. Gabriela did wonderfully with him. Primarily, she has an air of responsibility about her and I felt safe to leave. I had been worried about it for weeks. No worries. Geordie was well cared for and I’m very grateful.

Brithny was an absolute gem taking care of my dog, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. From our very first meet and greet, she put me completely at ease, she even brought her own dog sana along to help the dogs get comfortable together, which showed just how thoughtful and prepared she is. You can tell right away that she has real experience with dogs and genuinely understands them. Throughout her time with my dog, Brithny went above and beyond. She took him on fun little adventures and made sure he was active, engaged, and well cared for the whole time. She was gentle with him, responsible about his routine, and clearly poured a lot of care into how she looked after him. On top of that, she sent frequent updates and photos, which meant so much to me while I was away, since I always knew exactly how he was doing. I felt so relieved knowing my dog was in such capable, caring hands. Brithny is exactly the kind of sitter every dog owner hopes to find, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. I recommend her without reservation.

I was so pleased with Joo’s ability to connect with my 2 dogs. Both are rescues and have specific needs: Lizzie is fearful and very anxious; Quigley was a stray—perhaps for years—and is house trained only when his human is home. She handled both of their needs with compassion and kindness. They warmed up to Joo quickly. Joo sent my photos and videos of my kids while I was away. It was obvious that they were having a really good time. That put my mind at ease and a smile on my face.

Dustin stayed with my dog for a week at my house and he was great! My dog (pit mix) is extremely nervous and has separation anxiety but Dustin was very compassionate and took good care of my pet. This was the first time traveling that I didn’t worry that my dog was stressed out. I would highly recommend Dustin. He communicates well and was willing to walk the dog at any hour. Lots of pictures too!

Jordan was excellent to work with. She set up a meet and greet prior to house/pet sitting with us and was very professional. She hit it off right away with our dog, Daisy. She spent a full week at our house with our dog, bunny, and fish. We received daily updates with pictures and videos which were fun and something we looked forward to each day while we were away. We came home to a clean house and tired pup. I would highly recommend Jordan to house and pet sit - nothing but great things to say! Thank you, Jordan!
