Rachel really helped me with my dog and cat during a difficult time, she walked my dog Petey twice without being asked, out of concern for him. She cares about Petey and Busker. ❤️

Philsung has been great since day 1! He ensures that he meets all expectations when he is caring for your dog! He makes it a point to bond with your dog and form a solid relationship. My dog is always happy after a walk with him! Plus, he takes pictures of their time together, so you know exactly what happened! Highly recommend!!

Wen is an amazing pet sitter!! She kept me updated with photos and messages after each visit, which really put my mind at ease. My puppy Noa likes her very much. She was also incredibly responsive whenever I had questions. Highly recommend her!

About: 33 year old looking to earn a little extra money while working remotely full time. I'm a huge dog/animal lover! I always grew up with dogs and helped watch/take care of them. I also helped watch, walk, and take care of friends' dogs, and used to walk for Wag, so I have lots of experience with it. Your dog will get lots of love and attention from me, and all the play time he/she needs. I work remotely, so I am somewhat open for walks! I just cannot commit to anything super consistent. I’m available for more occasional walks or visits I am currently not allowed to bring dogs to my rental apartment. I’m happy to listen to your instructions on caring for them in your home

Binta was a wonderful sitter for my Cleo! I appreciate how she took the time to get to know Cleo and wrote meaningful updates. Cleo is a shy, reserved girl but Binta was able to get through to her! I hope to book with Binta again in the future. Thanks for everything, Binta!!

About: I have fostered a 4 month old poodle for 2 months. I’d say I personally have more experience babysitting than pet sitting but that being said, I have a huge heart for nurturing and caring I am currently working a part time job but my work days are only on Thursdays and Fridays in the afternoon so I have a lot of time on my hands! Unfortunately I can not host pet sitting at my home for my land owner doesn’t allow pets inside, but if I were to work at your home, I would act accordingly with respect!

About: What sets me apart is my deep, firsthand experience with feline care and behavior. I first started as a foster parent for a local animal shelter, which is how I met my two sweet cats. Raising them since they were tiny, vulnerable kittens taught me everything about specialized cat care—from reading subtle body language to managing strict feeding schedules and grooming. I also grew up with a spirited Terrier, so I’m highly comfortable with energetic dogs. I regularly pet-sit for my friends' fur babies, and I’m ready to provide a patient, loving, and detail-oriented environment for yours! I currently work, so my schedule is best suited for early morning and evening pet care. I love starting my day with an early walk or check-in, and I am completely free after work to provide dedicated care, feeding, and play. Because I maintain a consistent routine, your pets will always have a reliable and structured schedule with me! Since I only offer drop-in visits and house sitting, my priority is keeping your pets safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment. During each visit, I closely follow your specific instructions for feeding, fresh water, and litter box cleaning. I also make sure your home is completely secure before I leave. You can expect regular photo updates so you always have peace of mind knowing your fur babies and your home are in good hands!

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for pets and grew up with both dogs and cats. Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I am reliable, responsible, and will treat your pet with the same love, care, and attention that I would give my own. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, fresh water, feeding, or simply some extra companionship during a drop-in visit, I will make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy. I understand that every pet is unique, and I will follow your instructions closely to ensure the best experience for both you and your furry friend. Communication is important to me, and I'll keep you updated so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. Friends and family know me as someone who goes above and beyond, and I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and being active. I am organized, dependable, and make it a priority to be on time and follow each pet's individual needs and schedule. Whether it's a walk, feeding, playtime, or a drop-in visit, I enjoy providing pets with attention, companionship, and care while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow the owner's instructions closely to help maintain the pet's normal routine and ensure they feel comfortable and secure. During walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and companionship. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, cared for, and happy while their owner is away. Communication is important to me, and I am happy to provide updates and photos for added peace of mind.

About: As a pet parent for most of my life, I’m passionate about all different animals. While I am a self-proclaimed dog person, I love all pets and consider them family. Because of this, I believe in treating your pets as if they were my own! I have owned dogs for most of my life and have extensive experience in dog care, such as walking, feeding, bathing, and playing. I have helped family members and friends with different services whenever needed, and truly have a passion for spending time with animals. I’m comfortable with dogs of any size, and believe every dog deserves kindness regardless of breed. I have taken care of cats before and am also very comfortable with them! I also have my own vehicle, meaning I can transport your pet to any location as needed. I’m comfortable standing, walking, and playing for long amounts of time, as some pets require more energy and attention than others. I’m also very detail-orientated and will follow any instructions as listed by the client, such as for feeding and bathing. I truly enjoy spending time with pets and take pride in carefully caring for them ❤️. My schedule is very flexible, meaning I have time for different pet services throughout the week. I am available most days, and am a stickler for scheduling and being punctual, meaning you never have to worry about mix-ups or last-minute cancellations. My calendar is always freshly updated so that you may know if I’m ever unavailable! I can take care of any pet in a client’s home provided that the client has necessary items, such as food, toys, and a bed/crate. I’ve taken care of pets with both strict and flexible routines, and am comfortable following a schedule or being spontaneous and taking care of a let’s needs as they arise. I’m also comfortable with administering oral medication, as I have experience doing this with my own dog.

First time using a pet sitting service for my cats. I found Marcela and read her reviews along with comparing her to other sitters I looked at online. She stood out for me and so glad I chose her to watch my sweet boys Lilo & Stitch. She did a great job while I was away from feeding them, cleaning up the litter box to even brushing their coat. Something that's not easy to do but my cats got comfortable with Marcela after the first day. She's thorough and does a good job. I'd hire her again.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been caring for them for over 24 years. In addition to helping friends and family with their pets, I’ve volunteered in animal shelters and gained experience with many different dogs. I treat every dog with patience, care, and respect. I work full-time, but pet care fits well into my routine. I’m available for care during weekdays and fully available on weekends. I always make time to give dogs proper attention, walks, and consistency. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I follow each dog’s routine closely, keep doors and leashes secure, and supervise interactions at all times. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment.

Emma has been an absolute lifesaver and is the perfect sitter for our new puppy, Hubble. Emma went out of her way to make herself available in the middle of the day during our first week back at work and it has made all the difference. She is communicative, punctual, and extremely kind. I have nothing but nice things to say about Emma. I know Hubble absolutely loves his new friend!

Our young dog has separation anxiety, she screams and jumps at the door the entire time when we leave her alone. I'm so thankful we found Amanda so that we could have an evening out without worrying about what was happening at home. We loved getting updates and photos throughout the evening. The experience exceeded our expectations and we will use her again in the future.

Michelle took such good care of Snowman!! The insanely cute photos and videos she sent were a godsend while I was gone, and I could tell just how comfortable he had gotten with her by the end of just four days— takes a special touch, which she clearly has. I so appreciated her thoughtfulness, competence, and how sweet she was with him!! Thank you, Michele!!

I'm going in and out of town quite a bit this summer and will book with her every time -- she's his favorite sitter and I know he's in good hands. She's incredibly responsive, sends tons of pictures, and I come home to a perfect apartment and kitty!

Meredith was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable about cat care, and it was clear she genuinely cared about my cats’ well-being. I could tell they bonded with her during my time away—even my cat who usually doesn’t warm up to other people. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and would highly recommend Meredith for any pet-sitting needs.
