“This was our first time having a house + dog sitter while we were out of town several days - I had actually posted it as a drop-in (several times/day but no overnight), but Kimberly impressed me by suggesting that SHE would prefer that it be a house-sitting situation (because it would be preferred for the dogs AND be especially convenient for her). I was honestly not excited about the dogs being by themselves for such long stretches already, so readily agreed. The first time we met, the dogs were immediately at-ease with Kim, and she asked some astute questions (such as - how will they do with any fireworks that might be going off for New Years?) that put me also at ease. While we were gone, we got daily updates about their 'activities' as well as a few pics of the dogs doing their normal things, obviously very comfortable. She left the house in pristine (well, as pristine as she found it lol) condition. Would absolutely recommend Kim for your dog - and house - sitting!”
“Lori did a very nice job watching our pets while we were on vacation. They were well fed, she took the dogs outside often and watered our plants. She sent pictures of our pets every day and told us how they were doing. She informed us when she was leaving the house for a while and didn't stay away very long. We were impressed how well our chihuahuas liked her. Our dogs don't like very many people....at all. We look forward to having Lori watch our pets when we go on vacation again.”
“Erin was fabulous with my 2 cats. She tooks lots of pictures of them to share with me. I could see that my boys were very happy and in great hands with Erin. I will definitely be reaching out to Erin again.”
“Audrey takes the best care of my dog and home. She keeps me posted, including pictures, of their daily activities. She gives BamBam so much love that I’m sure he is very sad that she leaves when I return.”
“We highly recommend Owen as a sitter. This was our first time using the app and he was super easy to work with, responded quickly to messages, and took great care of our puppy! He kept us updated and sent photos. Our puppy had a great time!”
“Sarah was absolutely great! She is great at communication both before and during the day, kept the house clean, and most importantly kept the animals safe while we were away. We are looking forward to using Sarah in the future!”
About: I have had dogs since I was little and love playing with them and taking care of them. I’m an athletic person so if the dog is in the mood to play, I can certainly be a great playmate! I have experience with dog sitting overnight, dog walking, and drop-in visits. I work at a nursing home, but I get to choose the shifts I pick up, so my schedule can be very flexible. I am looking for more pups to help out! I can provide overnight care at the owners home. While I am there, I make sure to take your dog for walks, play outside, and give lots of rubs and cuddles. As a person, I am very low maintenance, so you won’t have to provide hardly anything if come care for your pups overnight.
“Konnie did an absolutely amazing job watching our dog and two cats while we were out of town!!! I got updates and photos while she was watching them and even put up with all my little requests. I think my house may have been more put together after she left than it was when she got there. We will 100% be using her again when we have to leave town. I cannot recommend her highly enough. THANK YOU KONNIE ?”
About: I have three cats of my own that I take care of. My family has always had a dog or cat in the home, so have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a child. I am currently working full time from home, so I am flexible when it comes to my daily and weekly routine. We can find a schedule that works for us both! I currently have three cats that.. run our household 😅 they are well tended to and have many toys. Under my care, I will be able to keep your pet happy, healthy and safe
“Shayna had great communication. She sent pictures of my baby as requested. She was very kind and respectful of the house. I could tell that my pup was comfortable in her care. Would definitely book again.”
“This was a last minute booking that Tara was quick to respond to and set up a meet/greet for. I was very nervous to leave the dogs as we just recently rescued one with severe trauma/fear and another one healing from a recent surgery and still getting used to having his new brother in the house. I knew they needed someone very attentive and knowledgeable—Tara was just that and beyond! We had a slight issue that we did not anticipate with our rescue doggie and Tara was quick to inform us and navigate the issue to ensure both our dogs were happy and healthy in her care!”
“Chelsea did a great job caring for my dogs while I was out of town. She kept the house clean and even took care of our bearded dragon! We were kept updated with frequent pictures. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again! Thank you, Chelsea!”
About: Since I was young, I’ve always had a pet. After college I finally got a pet of my own and they’ve just multiplied over the years! Dogs are my specialty - I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family & I’ve trained both of my dogs since they were puppies. I’d say what sets me apart from others is that I have plenty of time in the afternoons (and any time during the weekend) to take care of your pup because my job ends early in the day unlike a 9-5 job. I have years of experience under my belt and I just really love animals. Always have and always will! As a teacher, I am always home early on the weekdays so I’ll have plenty of time every afternoon to play with & walk your dog! I am available any time on the weekends and I can board Fri-Sun. My husband and I have a big fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! We are firm believers in lots of walks, lots of playtime, and positive reinforcement. If needed, we can provide a crate as a safe space for your dog to lounge in. Our dogs are our children and we will treat your dog with the same love as we treat our own :)
“Thank you so much for staying with my girl while I was out of town! I couldn't be happier with how well my pup was cared for. She sent pictures regularly throughout the day and kept me informed of how my pup was doing. 100% would recommend to anyone for any critter.”
“Monica is the best!! I have two Senior Chihuahuas that are both on medication and special food. She has taken the time to earn their trust and takes wonderful care of them and not just physically. She considered each dogs quirks and fears and has made them both very happy dogs when I’m away. I’ve gotten so much more freedom now because of her. She is Amazing!!”
“Kathi was amazing!! After I was in need with only a day notice, she stepped up and I couldn’t be happier. She took great care of Lexi and my home. I highly recommend Kathi to anyone. Thank you!!”
“A+++ a fantastic person who was so caring for my little guy. Catherine provided just the right amount of updates with photos and videos of his progress / status. She took him on walks and helped him with his training journey. She’s thorough upfront to know what’s needed and is comfortable asking questions throughout. She’s thorough upfront to make the process smooth. She really earned my trust during this stay and I’d love to have her support again in the future.”

We could not have asked for a better cat and house sitter. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing Kitty and our home were in such caring and capable hands. Communication throughout the stay was excellent — we received thoughtful daily updates, beautiful photos and videos, and little stories about Kitty’s antics that genuinely made us smile while we were away. It was obvious how much time and attention she gave Kitty. Our cat is very social and thrives on human interaction, and it was clear she received lots of playtime, affection, and companionship during the visit. That meant so much to us. She also went far above and beyond in caring for our home. She washed and dried the bedding and towels she used, emptied the trash bins, cleaned dishes, and even emptied the litter robot without being asked. We came home to an incredibly clean house and a couple of thoughtful surprises. The level of care, professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail she showed was exceptional. It is rare to find someone so dependable, thoughtful, and genuinely caring. We are incredibly grateful for her and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, attentive, and truly above and beyond as both a pet and house sitter.
Mackenzie always goes above and beyond to make time away from the pups easier. She takes great care of them, sends regular updates, and even makes sure everything is clean and better than she found it before I get home. She's my go-to pet care help, and for good reason - she's the best!
