Top rated Highland house sitters

“As usual, Arianna is amazing. She’s the best sitter I think I’ve ever had! She’s considerate, sends ample pictures and updates and I know she cares about my boy. Highly recommend!!!!”


“Rima did an amazing job taking care of my two pups and cat. She gave them tons of attention and love and regularly gave updates on how they were doing. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs to have their pets in a safe and loving environment when they travel!”



“Rose was amazing! She went above and beyond our expectations! Thankfully, she was available (fairly) short notice and worked with us every step of the way! She sent us pictures of Bolo everyday (to reassure my girlfriend) and kept bolo (who can have really bad separation anxiety) from freaking out. She also finished drying/folding our laundry for us! We really appreciate everything she did, and would 100000000% re-hire her/recommend her for whoever is looking for a dogsitter, walker or anything in between.”

“Erin house-sat for us when we needed a cat sitter for four days on short notice. She was amazing! Her connection to the kitties and thoughtful, conscientious approach to the care of our beloved companions set my mind at ease. It was clear from our first conversation that she was trustworthy and dependable, which was reassuring since we've never had a house-sitter. We have a senior cat who requires twice-daily medication and Erin handled all his special needs. She communicated clearly, left the house in excellent condition, and is also just a wonderful person all around!”


“Riss is amazing with my dog- sticks to our schedule, great communication and left my house spotless. I felt relaxed and confident with my dog in her care for 3 nights!”


“Our dogs felt comfortable and loving toward Amruta from the first time they met. She stayed with them and took good care of them. I really appreciated the updates. She is so kind. She did a great job. We will not hesitate to have her watch them again.”


“Bradley was the perfect pet sitter. He was communicative and responsive and treated my home with respect. He sent frequent updates and pictures of my cat. He even helped out when the cat went missing unexpectedly, offering to look for him and lending a cat carrier. I will be using Bradley again for sure and I recommend you use him for your pet needs too!”


“Loren was amazing with our senior pup, who went partially blind earlier this year and needs extra TLC, including administration of oral meds and eyedrops. We are always concerned about leaving her and knew she was in great hands with Loren. Loren followed all of our instructions to a tee and took great care of our home as well. We will certainly be requesting her in the future!”


“Nathan did great with our mixed-breed pit bull and super mutt. They all got along well and everyone was on great shape upon our return!”


“Stefanie is wonderful. She's a smart, reliable, respectful, and easygoing person. She is trustworthy, gentle and loving with our slightly skittish cats, and made real friends with them. Stefanie was so accommodating, sent us lots of updates and photos and truly set our minds at ease. We will ask her to kitty sit again without hesitation! If you want to relax on your getaway, hire her!!! She's a true gem!!”


“Breanna was an excellent sitter while we were away for the weekend! She provided regular updates on our dog with some darling silly photos too. She came and met Wally before staying with him and was very receptive to instructions and keeping him on his schedule. She left the place clean and tidy before leaving. Will definitely book again!”



“Shana was wonderful with our Penny. Penny liked her immediately when they first met. Shana kept in contact with us throughout the weekend, even sending pictures. We felt very comfortable the time that Penny was in her care. When walking Penny, Shana met some of our neighbors. Afterward, they told us how much Penny seemed to like her & how lucky we were to find her. I definitely will be booking another visit with Shana!”

“Leslie was fantastic! We felt so lucky to have found her to care for our pup (and our home!). She obviously was on top of the feedings, walkings, etc…but what we really valued was the love she gave our dog while we were away. We are always anxious to go away and leave our dog, but we’ll def. be a bit less anxious next time now that we’ve found Leslie!”


“Aliza house sat and looked after our pup Bingley. She is an excellent communicator who keeps in touch about your pet throughout her stay. Lots of photos which are appreciated.”


About: I have been cat/dog sitting for 3 years now. I have experience taking care of cats. Ive also watched many different types of dogs including large ones. Ive always been a huge animal lover and growing up around dogs always walking and taking care of them, making sure they get the love they deserve. I love doing anything that I can for the animal community Im currently working on online college so im looking to get any side jobs i can in the meantime to try and make some money right now In a client’s home, I carefully follow their instructions and routines to maintain consistency for the pet, and I always respect their space and privacy. I give regular updates to the owner, and I’m prepared to handle emergencies responsibly. I keep their living areas clean, make sure they are fed and have fresh water daily and pay close attention to their health, including administering medication if required. Overall, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with patience, affection, and attentive care

“Rachel was wonderful with our two pups! We really enjoyed working with her and meeting her own fur baby, Marty. Thanks for everything, Rachel!”


About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and have experience walking and caring for a variety of breeds and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and gets the exercise they need. Whether it’s a fun walk, playtime, or just some extra attention, I treat every pup like they’re my own. I’m also great at following instructions to make sure your dog’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I work a hybrid role in the tech industry based in the Mid-Hudson Valley, with standard hours from 9 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday. I'm in the office on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, but outside of those times, I offer flexible availability. I kindly ask for at least 72 hours' notice to ensure I can plan and provide the best possible care. I take pet safety and comfort very seriously when caring for them in their own space. I follow all client instructions closely and make sure pets feel secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I always double-check that doors and gates are secure, keep a close eye during walks, and never leave pets unattended. Building trust—with both you and your dog—is my top priority, and I aim to create a calm, caring experience every visit.

About: I am an Artist who works from home a lot and would love some extra furry companionship :) I understand that being in a new place with new people can feel stressful for the first time. We can go on long walks together at least twice a day and then they can sleep where ever they are most comfortable. I have a flexible schedule most days, so I can work around any animal care that may be needed. I love having furry companions around. We will play fetch, drink lots of water, go for walks and probably just hangout and read together. Right now I am working freelance so I can arrange my schedule as needed to make animal accomodations. I love to start my day with animal smiles. First I like to survey the areas of the home to make sure there isn't anything dangerous that has been mistakenly left out that might cause harm. And then we can establish a place for the pet items so they can start to feel more comfortable in a new environment. I also make sure the water bowl is always filled.

About: My family always had many pets in the house. From a very early age I learned how to be nurturing, caring, and dependable. I work in the human services field aspiring to be a clinical social worker. My full-time job is in children services including respite care and comprehensive case management experience. I consider myself a deeply caring individual that animals seem safe and calm to be around. Any and all ages of dogs and cats are welcome -- I will do everything I can to ensure your favorite companion is well taken care of! I think to start I would like to do weekends. I generally work 9-5pm so I can be flexible in the evenings as well. I'm open. I put the animal first, gauge their comfortability, and remain highly perceptive to behavior and environment. I have experience managing big dogs and puppies (100+) on leads, in highly populated areas (Downtown Brooklyn), and feel confident in my care-taking abilities. In the past I have babysat and nannied children. In my current role I often have home visits with my families (many of which have various species of pets).

Not only is Angel extremely kind and professional, but most importantly, Angel has a deep love and connection with animals - especially dogs. Angel took excellent care of my little dog, Broccolini, while I was away for over a week. I knew he would be safe, loved, and protected under Angel's watch. Angel was really great about keeping me updated too - I would always receive photos of the two of them playing together. You can rest assured that your pet will be in wonderful hands with Angel!”
