About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a Goldendoodle for 9 years, I bring patience, reliability, and real hands-on experience to every walk and visit. I’m currently looking for full-time work and working part-time currently, so I am very flexible with my timing. I am around during the week and most weekends. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with space to play and relax. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. I give lots of attention, maintain routines, and keep pet parents updated with photos and notes.
“Danielle is wonderful! She is friendly and kind and was great with Grace. She also treated our home very respectfully and was great with other things we asked her to do such as pick up the mail etc. She came for a meet and greet and then we asked if she would spend the night beforehand so as to accustom Grace to her which she agreed to. I can’t think of one thing she could have done better and I hope she is available in the future when we need her. Thanks Danielle!”
“Emely was amazing with my pets! She was caring, attentive, and treated them like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving for their pets!.”
“Michelle has house sat for us twice. She’s very communicative, organized and very considerate of our 2 cats and 2 dogs. Our dogs are rescues who require regular medications and are high maintenance. Michelle did a great job and we are grateful!”
About: Since grade school I have been taking care of my families animals. I have experience with puppies and kittens. In the past I have been done extended pet sitting for weeks at a time. My girlfriend and I currently have two young cats (Bob & Paolo). I am excited to match your fur babies energy whether that’s going on long walks or being couch potato’s together. You tell me! My girlfriend and I have recently moved to New York from Wichita, KS so she can finish up med school. Leaving my previous job behind I am currently available for what works for you! From previous pet sittings I am used to giving medication, adding raw food to kibble, & going on long walks. I took care of my sisters prehistoric 14 year old Frenchie who was very high maintenance. Just let me know what your fur baby needs!

About: I am a physician assistant student looking for some extra income 👩🏻⚕️ I have many years of experience caring for my pets and pets of family and friends.

About: Hi I’m Mili! I have experience in dogs and cats of multiple breeds and sizes. I own an animal rescue and neuter/spaying foundation in Ecuador ❤️. I have a deep and special connection with animals and I would love to share my love and experience with your pets. I work a full time Monday-Friday job, however, we can adjust the schedule that works best for us! My weekends are very flexible and I am comfortable house sitting over nights. I believe communication is the best way to ensure I can provide your pet with the best care! 🩷 I follow instructions and specifications from pet parents. During my drop-in visits, I like to provide with a 20 minute walk and 2 walks (and as many necessary potty breaks) during house sitting. I also come prepared with brushes, extra treats and other pet friendly items! 🤎💛🐶🐱
About: I have seven years of experience in pet care. Currently, I have two cats and one hamster. When I was a child, I also kept rabbits and dogs. They were all very obedient and very at ease. I am currently in an internship at home, so I have plenty of free time and my schedule is very flexible. I can accept services at any time, on any day. I will provide a quiet and trusting environment for the pets and try to pet and feed them. Additionally, I can judge their thoughts through their body language and expressions.
“Kristen watched our two mini-Aussies this past weekend. It was out first time using a house-sitter, and first time working with Kristen, so we were a bit trepidatious. What we didn’t k work but we’re overjoyed to find out is that Kristen literally elevated dog/house sitting to an art form. Over the course of the weekend, she sent us beautiful pictures of our dogs, clearly having a great time with their sitter. We came home to an immaculate house, happy pups and a new friend. Oh, and a pet picture portfolio :). Thanks again Kristen for your care and thoughtfulness!”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and dedicated pet parent myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone new. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs playtime or a senior dog who prefers slow walks and gentle care. I’m patient, observant, and treat every dog like my own—with plenty of affection, attention, and consistency. I’m also comfortable handling special dietary needs, medications, and multi-dog households. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or weekend boarding, I aim to create a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently not working so I will have plenty of time to play with your furry best friend! I’m easy to book and available all day long I have a fenced yard and a friendly 2 year old dachshund. Open to bring them for a neighborhood walk or just chill at my backyard. I’ll also bring them to the dog park if needed

“We are so happy we found Sam! She was amazing with our two anxious young dogs and in communicating with us. We went a little overboard on giving her notes about the dogs and the house so that she’d have everything she needed and she quelled our own worries from the beginning with her confident, calming presence. We feel so lucky she brought that energy to her stay with our dogs and would love to book with her again in the future.”
