I have a high needs dog. Lots of medications and some reactivity on leash. He was very attentive to all of her needs and did a great job of keeping her calm. He also sends very thorough updates with lots of photos!

Ashanti stepped up in a major way to take care of our 12 yr old dog after she got unexpectedly bitten by a dog the night before our trip! She was very communicative and worked with my sister to follow the vet’s recommendations, including administering medications, and helped nurse our pup back to health. She also did a great job caring for our cat and our home. Thank you, Ashanti!!

Onyekachi was a wonderful sitter. She took notes while meeting Willow for the first time and asked great questions. She was very accommodating, updated me daily, and was attentive the whole time. Willow felt very comfortable/adjusted well to having a sitter and was a bit sad to see Onyekachi go. An amazing experience!!!

We have an older anxious cat and a new puppy so Rachelle had her hands full but handled it beautifully! Rachelle is extremely communicative and responsive. I felt super comfortable with Rachelle staying with our animals while we were away- so much so that we have booked her for another weekend coming up. She asks a lot of questions and really cares about keeping our babies as comfortable as possible while we are not there. We had Rachelle stay in our home and she was very respectful of our place- may have been cleaner when we got home than when we left! Thanks Rachelle!!

Kristen took great care of our 18 month old labradoodle for 10 days. On our initial meeting, my wife and I loved his easy-going but responsible attitude and our girl took to him right away without any hesitation. A big bonus was Kristen's proximity to Prospect Park. We received lots of photos during her stay and Kristen was super fast replying to any questions we had. Kristen is definitely going to be our go-to sitter on our nights out and when we're out of town.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was about 8 years old. I grew up with a doberman and a cat both of which i loved dearly. I continued to have cats and dogs until I moved out on my own at 25, I now only have cats because of my building but would love to get back to walking and taking care of dogs! I’m a manager at a non-profit animal rescue group and take care of approximately 50 animals a week. This includes feeding, cleaning, playing and monitoring their health! I treat every animal I come into contact with as I would my own. There is always love and the utmost care. I’m on a sabbatical from my full time job now in sustainability so I have lots of time to do some pet care work! I still work at the animal rescue group but that is only part time. I offer services mostly at the client’s home and not my own because of my cats. While super friendly and cuddly I have no idea how they’d react to a large dog! But at the client’s home I’m extremely vigilant about pet safety and know what to do in an emergency. I’m very familiar with walking dogs of all sizes (even great danes) from my time as a doggy daycare employee.

Destiny was an amazing sitter and house guest! Our old boy, Blue, loved her from the moment he met her. She stayed in our home for 16 days and not only took incredible care of Blue, sending regular updates and pics/videos, but she went above and beyond by bringing in our mail, watering plants and even cleaned the house before she left, leaving us a sweet note. She was communicative, professional, and has a high level of attention to detail. We will 100% be using her services again!

About: For more than 30 years I have been engaged in the maintenance, care and training of my pets. I love animals, taking care of pets gives me pleasure. I have had many different animals, I have experience in caring for turtles, fish, hamsters and cats. I currently work part-time at a dog daycare, where I care for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities every day. This experience has helped me become confident handling both energetic and shy dogs in a safe and attentive way. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits on Mondays, Fridays, and weekends by appointment. I always try to be flexible and provide reliable communication and photo updates for pet parents. Dogs have been an important part of my life since childhood, and I have over 30 years of experience caring for pets. I have experience with large breeds such as Huskies and Giant Schnauzers, as well as senior dogs and pets who need medication or extra attention. My priority is making every dog feel safe, calm, and comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, routine, and energy level, and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I believe patience, consistency, and trust are the foundation of good pet care.

Meaghan took excellent care of our Great Dane (and our home) while we were away! She brought a calm loving energy to our sometimes anxious pup. She was punctual with her own timing and still very flexible with ours, and while we were away kept us updated with photos of our happy pup each day. Highly recommend her as a pup and house sitter!

Jen took such great care of our pups. She paid close attention to all of my concerns and she remembered the weird idiosyncrasies about both dogs. Jen seemed to give them all of the attention and love we could’ve asked for. So glad we found her!

Kachi did an amazing job housesitting and caring for my girl Harley while I was away! She paid attention to the detailed notes I provided and communicated updates frequently. I appreciated this greatly as Harley is a senior dog who requires medication daily, and Kachi did a great job keeping her on her routine. I came home to a happy and healthy dog!

Nic was an incredibly thoughtful and communicative petsitter. My dog, Rocky has a lot of quirks and needs that Nic took in stride and I could feel the love he had towards him. He was proactive about ensuring Rocky’s medication, feeding, and walking schedule were adhered to and made sure to send lots of pictures each day. I absolutely would recommend Nic for anyone’s house/pet sitting needs.

So appreciative of Zaria! She took amazing care of my two pups for a full week, one of which had just started a new medication the day before I left. From our first meet-and-greet, I could tell Zaria is a natural with pets and truly cares. She was incredibly attentive, catered to their individual health needs, and also provided me with the cutest pictures of my pups which made being away from them so much easier. Definitely plan to work with Zaria again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter.
