“Kimberly is great- Emmy loves her! She makes traveling so much easier, and she takes adorable photos of Emmy with the zoomies, playing hide-and-seek, and curled up looking cozy. Couldn't be happier!”
“As always, CJ is the best. Not only for how he takes care of our furry friend Simon, but also for keeping the house spotless and paying attention to all the details. We were away from home for 8 days and couldn't be more grateful. We love you CJ.🤗”
“Stephen went "above and beyond" in caring for my dogs and my home during my time away. The fussy pups received special attention tailored to their needs. They had lovely long walks, lots of play time and even some nice behavioral training. In addition, Stephen also worked with another sitter to ensure there was no lspse in care on the few days he had previously booked with another client. Not only is he the epitome of professional, but my pups really seem to enjoy their time with him - I arrived home after an extended trip to hsppy, calm dogs - so nice!”
“Jeannette is amazing! I have used her both for drop by visits and pet/ house sitting. Her communication is excellent and she sends pictures with her updates and it was very clear how much my dog has bonded with her and he is very well cared for. House left spotless, too. I will definitely use Jeannette again!”
“Katie is amazing! I would give 6 stars if I could. She took amazing care of our dog Gus while we were away for the weekend. Katie kept us up to date with everything they were up to including a ton of great photos and videos! If you have an opportunity to work with Katie I would highly recommend it, we will be working with Katie any time we go out of town”
“Zoe really liked Shasta when she met her and I could tell she was so loving with dogs. Shasta had a great time with Shasta and Zoe was very responsible and dependable.”
“Arianna cares about my dogs and she even got new toys for my dogs during her stay. It’s easy to communicate with her and my dogs look extremely happy when I get back home.”
“Emmy was happy and relaxed when I got home -- that's all I can ask for, really :) More broadly, Elissa was responsible and communicative. I will definitely be working with her again!”
“Shalese was excellent as always! We know Dre loves we she comes to care for him and she does a fantastic job! Her updates are perfect and she always leaves our apartment clean and well taken care of as well.”
About: What sets me apart is that I don’t believe in one size fits all pet care. I’ve raised my high-energy Husky, Zafiro, since she was a baby, which taught me firsthand the importance of patience, structure, exercise, and consistency,especially for puppies and active breeds. I’ve also raised my cat Rambo from a kitten, giving me a deep understanding of feline personalities and care, from playful to independent. From zoomy puppies to chill seniors, tiny fluffballs to big personalities, I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, energy levels, and special needs. Every pet is different, and I love learning what makes each one feel safe, loved, and confident. I care for every pet like they’re my own—because to me, they’re family and deserve nothing less. My schedule is super pet-friendly! I don’t start work until 10am, so mornings are perfect for walks or feedings. Lunch is flexible, so midday potty breaks are easy, and I’m free on weekends too. With my Husky Zafiro, I’m used to morning, afternoon, and evening walks and feedings—keeping your pet’s routine happy and on track is no problem! 1 Dog husky, 1 Cat. I make pets feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. I keep them on their usual routine, so they stay comfortable and stress-free. Your furry friend can enjoy an extra crate, plenty of toys, and a private patio to relax, plus all the cuddles and attention they deserve.
“Brady was an excellent dog sitter for our dog. He was very communicative and provided frequent updates. He was also able to be flexible and administer some medication that we found out last minute that our dog would need. I can also tell that he gave our dog a lot of attention and played with him a lot! He was also very responsible with the house. We highly recommend him.”
“We had an amazing experience with Liz! One of our pups needs to take medications at specific times to manage her epilepsy. Liz was very attentive and detail oriented. She also was a great communicator and sent us videos every day. On top of that, both of our dogs adored her!! Highly recommend Liz and can’t wait for our pups to hang out with her again!”
“John did a fantastic job taking care of Fenway and Rosie! He communicated with me daily, sharing pictures and video clips. They were happy and well loved. More over, John left the house in exceptional condition.”
“Guilherme took care of our dog and cat during the Christmas and new years holiday. He sent many updates with photos, helped bring the garbage bins inside and collect mail and left our home more organized than when we left. Highly recommend and definitely hope to use his services again when we travel. Thanks Guilherme!”
“Trinia is a very professional dog carer. She is kind, competent and very reliable. I feel completely comfortable leaving Maxi with her and would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.”
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Robyn was absolutely incredible. She took amazing care of our dog while we were away and made the whole experience easy for us. She also kept us updated with tons of adorable photos! Communication was a breeze – Robyn was quick to respond and so easy to talk to. We could tell Yara was in safe, loving hands the entire time. Highly recommend to anyone who wants peace of mind while traveling. Thank you for going above and beyond!”
“Aimee helped us with our 3 month old golden retriever puppy today and she was fantastic! He is very bitey at this age and fusses a lot and won't sleep easily, but Aimee was very patient with him. She made sure he is well taken care of before she left even though it was past our agreed time. I would hire Aimee again and recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! :)”
About: I’m always the first choice when my friends need someone to take care of the dogs. Because they know I have compassion and patience. If I came across the emergency, I contact them right away. I’m a full-time TCM student, but I still have sometime to take care of your furry friends/family when you don’t occupied by other stuff. I can visit at your place in the morning or evening time. I’m not able to provide boarding services for your loved ones, sorry. If I visit your home, I will make sure washing hands before handling any tasks, taking photos and short videos . If you have Camera at home, I’m absolutely fine with that, because I set up cameras too when I’m away.

Jeannette is amazing! I have used her both for drop by visits and pet/ house sitting. Her communication is excellent and she sends pictures with her updates and it was very clear how much my dog has bonded with her and he is very well cared for. House left spotless, too. I will definitely use Jeannette again!
CJ did a fantastic job of caring for Mochi! It was clear how much Mochi loved him from the very beginning, and I think this was a little like doggy summer camp—Mochi was very happy and comfortable, even with us away. CJ sent terrific updates twice a day and was responsive if I checked in and conscientious about Mochi’’s food, exercise and schedule. It was wonderful to be able to relax and know Mochi was so well cared for and so happy and to see ample proof of this in the shared photos and videos. The house was also clean and orderly when we came home. CJ clearly took care of it, as if it were his own. I will definitely be asking CJ to stay with Mochi whenever we’re out of town or need a sitter. His warmth and love of dogs is evident, and his professionalism is first rate.
Trina was once again wonderful with our two little dogs, including an elderly chihuahua who required more special care. I felt confident leaving them with her, which was a great help in itself. She sent helpful updates and photos, and we came home to happy, well cared for dogs and a tidy house.
Kari was wonderful with my puppy Nina! She is very calm and professional in her interactions with Nina and knows how to handle/correct her jumping up on people (and other behaviors a young dog still needs to learn not to do.) When we came home, Nina was sleeping and completely relaxed around Kari even though she had never seen her before that evening. And when Kari left, my little pup sat sadly in front of the door and couldn’t believe that her new friend just disappeared. This was the first time I had to leave my pup with anyone for the evening and I couldn’t be happier!
Guilherme took care of our dog and cat during the Christmas and new years holiday. He sent many updates with photos, helped bring the garbage bins inside and collect mail and left our home more organized than when we left. Highly recommend and definitely hope to use his services again when we travel. Thanks Guilherme!
Zoe is awesome! She’s proactive, observant, and very easy to communicate with, and our slightly reactive dog took to her right away. After a week with Zoe our pets actually didn’t seem like they missed us at all when we came home from our recent trip and I think it’s because they were so comfortable with Zoe and she showered them with so much love and attention while we were gone. We will definitely be booking again with Zoe in the future!
Reyna was fantastic! She was available somewhat last-minute and was professional, kind, and responsive. Most importantly, our dog George loved her. Our neighbor even let me know that she was so nice and saw her taking George for plenty of walks. We would definitely reach out to her again for future dog sitting needs!
Katelyn watched overnight my 2 dogs(one is under 1 yrs, so energetic ) a cat. First time meeting and having Katelyn petsit. Reliable, communicated multiple updates & photos, easily understood instructions for feedings & care and responded quickly to me. My pets warmed up to her instantly, and there were no issues. I would not hesitate to have Katelyn petsit for my pets in the future.
Katelyn house sit for our new golden retriever puppy, Eva, and Eva loved Katelyn so much! It gave myself and my fiance such peace of mind to have an experienced, responsible, and kind person stay with Eva while we were away. She also did a substantial amount of training with Eva while she was here as well, which we appreciated - especially since this is our first puppy. We would book Katelyn again in a heartbeat for house sitting, walking, or training!
Since we first connected with Kellie this past spring, she and our little furry guy have had many adventures together! From neighborhood walks and nature hikes, visits to the park and to Kellie's place, and a recent overnight in our home, Kellie's warmth and excellent care—plus the added bonus of her terrific photo updates—have made for a lasting relationship. Each of these wonderful experiences led to our having the highest level of comfort and trust for their most recent adventure—a week together in our home while we (his people) traveled abroad. Of course there were many details to prepare for and a variety of things to be a bit anxious about before the trip, but worrying about excellent pet care was not one of them! Our furry friend can be a bit concerned when something new is in the air, but as soon as he hears that Kellie will be here soon, he knows things will be just fine. All the qualities that make Kellie such an amazing caregiver made the week we were away a grand success in every way! Thank you again Kellie for helping to make lovely memories for us and most importantly for our little guy. We all look forward to more joyful times together.
