“Rafael took amazing care of our dog, Zelda. She is a very shy and fearful dog, and this was her first time staying with a dog sitter. He was incredibly patient with her and helped her build trust and feel safe during her stay. He also helped her become more comfortable around other dogs, which meant a lot to us. Rafael was always quick to respond, speaks both English and Spanish, and kept us updated with beautiful photos throughout Zelda's stay. He was kind, enthusiastic, respectful, and very understanding. What we appreciated the most was that he accepted our last-minute booking, which helped us so much. We are extremely happy with the care Zelda received and will definitely book with Rafael again for both boarding and daycare. We highly recommend him!”

“Keasha was a stellar pet sitter to Milo my Yorkshire Terrier she provided such TLC to him while I was away. She checked in with me daily on him eating, drinking and walking. Keasha gave me such peace of mind.”

“Omg, what a great host and sitter. Carolina was so responsive, and communicated everyday about my little one. Provided updates, pictures and videos and even had a safety “if lost” collar for him. Never saw that before and I love the idea! Will book every time I’m in town and need care. Had zero worries. Another great perk is she has a yard so if your pup likes the outdoors, they are safe and can get some sun. Thank you so much!”

“Sierra is great! She was so communicative while we were out of town. She made sure our pup was well taken care of and was gentle in letting him acclimate to her house and other dogs. We’re so happy to have found her!”

“cannot recommend Isabel enough! She is truly the sweetest and most attentive dog sitter I’ve ever had. From the very beginning, she made me feel at ease by keeping me updated with messages and pictures, and it was clear how much she genuinely cares for dogs. She goes above and beyond to make sure my pup is happy, safe, and comfortable, and I never have to worry when she’s around. I fully trust her and plan to book her every chance I get. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and detail-oriented, look no further—she’s the best! 🐶💖”

“Anely was absolutely amazing! Our pup is older and a bit anxious, this was our first time using rover and she did a phenomenal job with her. She provided updates and photos, which made us feel at easy knowing our pup was being so well taken care of! We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Poppy had a wonderful weekend stay with Robert! He was so kind and attentive and shared lots of pictures and updates while we were away. We will happily send Poppy back for future stays with Robert!”

“Cherylee and Steven are really amazing! They took great care of my pet, Benben. Every day, they sent me pictures of Benben, so I knew he was happy and safe. Benben felt very comfortable with them, like he was at home. I am very thankful for their help. I will book with them again next time for sure!”

“Angelina was a spectacular host! She sent constant updates, was flexible, had a great set-up, and most importantly gave a lot of love to my girls. 10/10 would highly recommend! Thank you Angelina! I would also note she was able to accomodate (in my circumstances) a last minute, 3 week stay for my pups which is unheard of. That speaks to her heart and caring nature!”

About: After losing my dog of 15 years, I’m not ready for another of my own just yet—but I miss the joy of being around dogs and would love to help care for yours. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule with some daytime availability. I also have strong availability in the evenings and on weekends, allowing me to provide consistent and reliable care. I will carefully follow your specific instructions and preferences when caring for your dog. My own dog was very special, and as he got older he became quite particular, so I understand how important it is to adjust to each dog’s unique needs and personality. I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine.
“Sonia was wonderful watching my pup! She was extremely attentive with Bruno who is very much go-go-go and sometimes hard to keep up with. She sent daily updates including photos and videos. The fenced in yard was a blessing for Bruno who is obsessed with running around. Will be using Sonia again next time I travel.”

“Kenny and Kaylan were awesome!! and took good care of my dog. They kept me updated with regular pictures, and when I picked up my dog, he was visibly joyful and content.”


“Arya, my floofy samoyed, loved loved staying with Zoe. She took Arya on many hikes, even got her a christmas present, and sent me many photos showing how relaxed Arya was. Can't recommend her enough”

About: Animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I believe our pets are so much more than just animals; they are family, loyal companions, and beautiful souls who bring unconditional love into our lives. Having shared my own life with beloved bulldogs and cats over the years, I understand just how precious they are and how important it is to know they are safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. With 25 years of pet-sitting experience, I offer compassionate, dependable, and personalized care for both cats and dogs. Every animal has their own unique personality, needs, and little quirks, and I take the time to honor and understand each one. Whether it's gentle cuddles, playful moments, peaceful companionship, or simply making sure they feel secure in their own surroundings, I care for every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are being treated with the same love, patience, kindness, and respect they receive from you. Because to me, pet sitting isn't just a service — it's a privilege to be trusted with a piece of someone's heart. 🐶🐱💕 As a self-employed shamanic practitioner, herbalist, and massage therapist, I have been blessed to create a life and career centered around healing, compassion, connection, and caring for others. One of the beautiful benefits of being self-employed is having a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of extra time to dedicate to pet sitting. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and find their presence incredibly grounding, peaceful, and healing. I believe animals are beautiful souls who deserve the same love, kindness, patience, and respect that we give one another. Because I create my own schedule, I have the freedom to be present and attentive, offering your furry companions plenty of affection, companionship, and individualized care rather than simply stopping in and rushing out. Pet sitting is something that fits naturally into my lifestyle and brings me so much joy. Being able to spend my days surrounded by animals, nature, and healing energy is truly a gift, and I would be honored to share that love and care with your beloved pets Being outdoors and connecting with nature is a huge part of my life, and I absolutely love sharing that joy with our four-legged friends! Hiking, exploring wooded trails, visiting parks, and enjoying the fresh air are some of my favorite things to do. I also have a Sprinter van, which makes it possible to take your furry companions on fun dog-friendly excursions and outdoor adventures, always keeping their individual needs, comfort, and safety in mind. I live in a cozy, pet-friendly apartment conveniently located near beautiful parks and green spaces, offering plenty of opportunities for walks, playtime, and exploration. Whether your dog is an adventurous soul who loves hiking through the woods or a gentle homebody who prefers leisurely strolls, belly rubs, and snuggling up for some quiet time, I am happy to accommodate their unique personality. I believe animals thrive when they feel loved, safe, and connected to the world around them. My goal is to make their time with me feel like a little vacation of their own, filled with love, adventure, companionship, and plenty of wagging tails!
“Eve was really lovely, flexible, and communicative. We got updates daily and our dog always seemed like she was having a fantastic time! Would definitely ask to have our pup stay with her again!”

“First time my dog had a multi-night stay with a dogsitter, and Jenni was wonderful with her!! My dog is sensitive and can get scared in new environments with new people and animals, but Jenni made sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Jenni was patient and kind with her, and Jenni's dog, Ripley, was amazing with my dog to give her the personal space that she needed. I highly recommend them, and I can't thank them enough for taking such good care of my furbaby!!”

“We had an absolutely amazing experience with Daniel! He was wonderful with our Eliza, but what really stood out was his incredibly thoughtful communication. We could tell he cared about making her stay full of love, care and belly rubs. His updates with photos made being away so much easier, and we picked up our girl knowing she was in excellent hands. Highly recommend!”

Love Qulynda as always! I only have her watch my dog now since she’s so accommodating and accepts my last minute requests! It’s so very appreciated to go somewhere and know I won’t be contacted unless an emergency which I prefer. We’ll be back!!! Thank you!!! 5 stars!!!

I’ve gone through pet sitter after pet sitter, and there’s always something that goes wrong, whether it’s not following instructions, not giving the pets enough attention, forgetting things, or just not communicating well. But Anely was seriously the BEST! 🥹 I’ll definitely be booking her again. She listened to every single one of my instructions, and trust me, I had A LOT. 🥲😂 I’m definitely one of those people who’s a little crazy about my fur babies, but she handled everything perfectly! Seriously, she was so worth it, and I couldn’t be happier. 10/10 would recommend! 🐾❤️

I can’t recommend Elba enough! I needed someone to watch my Pudding last minute while I was dealing with some personal issues, and she stepped up without hesitation. From the very beginning, she made me feel comfortable knowing he was in good hands. She sent me pictures of him playing, having fun, and enjoying himself every single day, which meant so much to me. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him and treated him as if he were her own. Finding someone you can trust with your fur baby isn’t always easy, but Elba made the entire experience stress-free. I’m so grateful for her kindness, flexibility, and the love she showed Pudding. If you’re looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, I highly recommend her! ❤️

We can’t say enough good things about Eliza! She took Marvin in with such short notice, it was impressive. The handoff was super easy and Eliza was very communicative; sharing photos and videos of Marvin. These were great action shots! Not only that, but she was very flexible when plans changed due to a flight change. We highly recommend her and will be bringing Marvin back whenever we need a sitter!

Tammy was a total lifesaver. My original sitter canceled 2 days before my trip to Europe and Tammy opened her schedule up to take my Ziggy! She treated his so well and sent me updates to see how happy he was! I think he enjoyed his vacation too! I will absolutely be working with her again and couldn’t recommend her more!

I had to board my dog, Humphrey, while I travelled for a work conference, and a nor'easter unexpectedly lengthened my trip by one day. I had to pick up Humphrey late, and I was so scared that it would be a problem. Nope. Jenni was kind, flexible, and returned Humphrey to me happy and sleepy (from all the fun). Her dog, Ripley, is also an absolute sweetheart. Highly recommend boarding with Jenni!
