“Jackie watched my dog Mika for the first time, and I am so grateful to have found such a gentle soul to watch my dog. She's very communicative & keeps you updated throughout the day. She's Mika's new favorite human.”

“Nicole did an excellent job in our home for an extended stay of 13 days with our 2 dogs. She was great with daily pupdates and pictures-which were greatly appreciated because we missed our babies. She dispensed meds several times a day to our senior German Shepherd and was able to keep our very active, lovable, snuggly -yet sometimes naughty Whippet puppy busy. I knew from the minute I met her that she was a great fit for us and I’d use her every time we need someone to stay or drop in for us!”

“Very competent and professional. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our dogs and our house in her hands. Our pups were very happy and even whined a bit after her. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely book her again.”

“You should consider yourself lucky to have this young lady caring for your pet. She’s extremely responsive courteous and professional before during and after your booking. We came home to a happy relaxed doggie!!”

“Caitlin was great! She communicated often and sent lots of pictures. She did the dishes without us even asking her to. Our dog seemed very happy and we will definitely book again!”

“Christina is truly the sweetest and most caring pet sitter! She has such a genuine love for animals and it really shines through from the moment we met and throughout the entire pet sitting stay. She kept us informed with lots of cute pictures and videos throughout the weekend, and was really on top of the specific needs for our senior dog.”

“Emma was great! So easy to communicate with, arrived on time and took the best care of Bruce! Sent lots of updates and made me very comfortable. Would be happy to have Bruce hang with her again sometime soon!”

“Maria was great with our two Aussies! She sent updates including photos each day, played fetch with them outside, and left our house immaculate. She even won over our nervous pup. We are also so appreciative to her for allowing us to add an extra night super last-minute without any complaints. I would highly recommend her for overnight stays with your pups! :)”

“Would absolutely recommend Forest as a sitter! Max was comfortable and happy while we were away. Max even followed him to the door while he was leaving, a little sad to see his new friend go!”

“Dejah stayed at my house for a couple days with my ever so shy cat, Theo. With other sitters in the past he usually hides under the bed the majority of the time. Dejah is the animal whisperer!! He was out and about, getting his zoomies on, and napping in the bed during the day. I received pics regularly. She truly is wonderful and took very good care of him and my home. Highly recommend her!!!”


About: I have experience with seizures and strokes in dogs, am able to administer any kind of medication, and have some experience with animals struggling with anxiety. I am a graduate student just looking for some fulfilling part time work. I am available at any point during the weekdays and after October 31st on the weekends I will not be able to host any animals, but I plan on prioritizing the pet’s comfort within their own home and making sure all needs are met

About: I have extensive experience working with a range of dog temperaments and personalities. Whether your dog is highly energetic and hyperactive or calm and low-maintenance, I know how to adapt to their specific needs. I take pride in getting to know each dog’s personality and building a strong, lasting bond with them. My Special Skills: Leash Training: Due to the diverse personalities I have encountered, I have become highly skilled at managing and improving leash manners during walks. Customized Care: I naturally adapt my energy and routine to match what makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. Patience & Bonding: I focus on positive reinforcement and patience to win over anxious or stubborn dogs. Right now, my schedule is extremely flexible, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and availability to your pets. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and consistent companionship throughout the day. I am highly attentive, alert, and fully aware of the immense trust and responsibility pet owners place in me. I take the well-being and security of your pets very seriously. I treat them with the same level of cautious, dedicated care that I would want for my own family.
About: Various friends and family members have entrusted me to care for their animals and they know they can rely on me because I know their animals needs and I follow their rules exactly I work full time 1st shift for a packaging company and I work over 40 hours per week. My schedule is Monday-Friday 7am-3pm. I currently take public transportation and bike everywhere. My new apartment allows cats only. I currently don’t have any pets in my care, but I have watched various friends and family member’s pets while they had to go away for a few days. My new neighborhood is very pet friendly.
About: I’ve always had a lot of dogs in my growing up, and have had to help take care of them. For the last 3 years I’ve dog sat for multiple different families. I am currently working full time day shift. I have plenty of time in the afternoon on weekdays to walk dogs and also have a lot of availability on the weekends. I am very comfortable caring for dogs in other peoples home. I have house sit and dog sit for multiple different people I’ve the last few years.
About: I have always had pets (i.e., cats, dogs) growing up, training them on my own, helping out close friends and family members, and have always enjoyed my time spent with the furry animals. I have been around all types, ages, and breeds, making my experience vast! I currently have the ability to work from home full time during the week or go into the office, but I gravitate towards working from home most of the time. I have a good amount of flexibility which allows me to conduct drop ins for walks during the day or overnight stays. I have always felt a strong connection to animals/pets and so it comes as second nature understanding what the pet needs at the time. I can follow instructions if there are any specifics to adhere to but will also tend to your pet as if it was my own and care for it like my own.
“Daniel took great care of our two large playful dogs. He reached out to schedule a meet and greet after booking to make sure he was a good fit for our dogs and understood our expectations. He was very communicative before and during the house sitting service. He sent photo and video updates and left our home in great condition. Highly recommend his services to any pet owners that are looking for reliable in-home pet care.”

If you are looking for a dog sitter to stay at your home, Haley is your person! She came over to meet our dog last minute and it was evident how much she loves animals. When we were out of town, we got frequent updates and pictures! It’s not easy leaving your furry friend behind but we didn’t have one worry with Haley. When we got home, it was obvious our buddy had a great weekend and was exhausted from all the playing.

Nafisa was wonderful with Buttercup! From the beginning, I felt very comfortable leaving both Buttercup and my home in her care. She communicated really well while I was away, and I came home to a house in great shape and a happy, well-cared-for Buttercup. That gave me such peace of mind while I was traveling. I would absolutely use Nafisa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.

I’m back again! 😁😁 After the amazing experience I had the first time, there was no question about who I was booking with again. What was originally just one stay while I was in Puerto Rico turned into me rebooking because I knew Penelope and Pablo would be in the best hands. Judith continues to go above and beyond. She keeps me updated, communicates so well, and treats my dogs with so much love and care. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and comfortable while I’m away. Thank you again, Judith, for everything you do! 🫶🏽🫶🏽

We couldn't ask for a better sitter for our pets! Elisabeth is so communicative, with lots of updates and pictures. You can tell she genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and both our cat and dog were so comfortable and happy with her. She even handmade a toy for our cat which she still loves playing with, how sweet!
