“Jesse watched my cat for three weeks this past winter. I was so impressed with his demeanor he really became part of the family. I recommend Jesse to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”


2. Marireyna M.
“Mari was wonderful with my 19 year old cat giving her attention and love while we were out of town for a week. She made sure she was fed and cleaned up after. I would highly recommend her as a pet caregiver.”


3. ReyArmand E.
“Reyarmand has provided excellent care for my fur babies (two dogs and three cats) on multiple occasions as an in home pet sitter!! I would highly recommend him as a responsible and thoughtful caregiver!!”


4. Meghan Q.
“Meghan is a AAA+ pet sitter and a joy to meet! She exudes confidence, reliability, and trust. My dog, Katie, took to Meghan instantly….which isn’t her ‘normal’. I think this says a lot about Meghan’s natural affinity for animals and their trust and interest in her. Meghan followed all the guidance to a ‘T’ and left me with a couple of house observations that I really appreciated. She left my home without evidence she was here, a testament to her clean and tidy profile. Will certainly ensure Meghan is aware of my future travels with hope she can return!”

About: Pet sitter for an adorable pom and lab mix on a regular basis. Experience in local vet and groomer. I love walk on trails and making sure that each pup or cat has what they need for the day. Morning dog walks are a great way to start the day. During the weekends, playing at a dog park or going for trail walks are fun. Socializing your pet is a fun responsibility. In my clients home, I hope to ensure that there is a clean and organized space for your pet to have access to water and food, play with toys, and socialize your pet.

About: I’ve worked professionally in the pet industry since 2018. I’ve worked with dogs of all shapes and sizes. My background in the pet care industry has given me access to knowledge in pet behavior, training, proper handling and more. I also have experience in Vetmed and am dog CPR certified. I currently work full time on weekends only which allows me to utilize the weekdays for any and all types of pet care needed . I follow any and all instructions given by owners to a T. I ensue the pet’s safety and wellbeing are always a top priority. As i know from my own pets, our pets miss us when we leave them and this can cause pets some distress, so i strive to ensure any pets in my care also feel comfortable and loved while their favorite person is out of town.


8. Renata C.
“I’d definitely recommend Renata as a pet sitter. I can tell when I return from my trip that my fur babies have been truly cared for. They are happy and calm since Renata takes them for walks and interacts with them in a positive way. I’ve hired her multiple times and now can’t go out of town unless she's available! 5stars!”

14. Amy L.

“Amy was so great taking my 2 Catahoula’s on an hour walk and feeding them dinner. She was very responsive to any questions that came up. I felt very comfortable with her coming and going from my home with no problems. Thank you so much and will be booking again soon.”


15. Inness H.

“Inness was great and helped us out last second and even took them out for longer than needed. Highly recommend”


16. Helen G.
“Helen and I met through Pratt, and she watched my dog Tiger when I left Brooklyn for winter break. From the moment they first met Tiger took an instant liking to her, and I knew she would do a great job watching him. And she did! She regularly sent me pictures of her spending time with Charlie. By the time I came back Tiger was so sad to leave her! I would definitely recommend her to anyone who want a kind and considerate dog sitter!”


17. Amanda P.
“My dog Anna really loves Amanda. When Amanda comes over she loses her puppy mind and starts jumping around and running into things (this is not as cute as it sounds because my dog weighs 50 lbs). One time she got so excited she threw up. Last time Amanda visited we made a bed for her on the floor in the living room and we had to erect a furniture barrier all around her mattress to keep Anna from harassing her all night. Amanda likes hiking with Anna... but not as much as Anna likes hiking with Amanda. My dog likes everyone, but she reaaaallllly likes Amanda. I don't think she has thrown up for anyone else (myself included). Full disclosure: Amanda is my sister, so I am biased. I have known Amanda since she was born and my family always had a lot of animals (dogs, horses, cats, birds, snakes); Amanda really likes animals, and as far as I can remember she always has. She is comfortable with all manor of creatures and she works in a zoo (I told you she likes animals). She can probably take better care of your pet than you can because she is a highly trained animal care professional :)”


18. Alexis Y.
“Alexis is one of the most bubbly, kind, and respectful people I have ever met. This is all reflected in how I have seen her with animals. She treats them as her own and loves each and every one. With my cat, in particular, she respects his boundaries which is SO big for cats as many people do not recognize the boundaries that cats have. She is extremely good with dogs as well. When she has been around dogs with me, she is just GOOD with them, there is no other way to explain it. I think Alexis would be the perfect person to watch your animals as she is trustworthy, respectful, and amazing with animals overall! :)”


19. Brittany J.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was able to hold a leash. My dogs are my big babies. (Literally) I enjoy being around dogs of all sizes. I Currently do not have a job, so I am available pretty much all day to take your pups for walks or on play dates. I live in a gated home with lots of running areas for your pups to get plenty of exercise. In the mountains, perfect for exploring.


20. Andrea L.
“Andrea is amazing! She LOVES the dogs and they love her. She is extremely responsible and attuned to them; she has great skill in handling all types of dogs. If a dog barks, pulls, etc., she has the tools to help the situation. I think her biggest asset is how CALM she stays. This helps the dogs feel calm and.m safe themselves. Highly recommend Andrea.”
