“Lei is a fantastic pet sitter. She cared for my 3 year old golden retriever in my home while I was on vacation for a week and I felt very confident in all the care, attention, and love she gave to my pup while I was away. She kept me informed with many pictures and updates each day which I really appreciated. She paid great attention and followed all care instructions carefully. I enjoyed my vacation more knowing my pup was happy and in such good hands. We will use her again for sure and cannot recommend her enough!”
“There’s nothing better than coming home to your dog after a long trip especially when he’s calm and relaxed because he was well taken care of. Juan allowed me this joy. It was the first time I’ve used him and Romeo took to him right away. Juan updated me daily and was responsive to messages. He also left my house in great condition. Thank you for taking care of my baby. We’ll be seeing you again!!”
“Sammi was a wonderful house sitter for us! Very professional and right on time as always. She also provided great updates with pictures and videos, even taking the time to do some training sessions with Nova who absolutely loves her!”
“Korrey took good care of our pup and our house while out of town for a week. We came home to a clean house and a well walked dog. He was able to administer our dogs medication too.”
“Elizabeth was absolutely fantastic. She communicated regularly and sent pictures often. She also went above and beyond cleaning up which was a nice surprise after a week of business travel. I would highly recommend her and will be reaching out again.”
“Oriana was fabulous when staying in our home and taking care of our 12 year old Havanese. First, she offered to do a meet and greet in person before our vacation. Then while we were away for 10 days, she sent daily photo updates and was extremely responsive. She left our house in even cleaner condition than it was when she arrived, and was even thoughtful enough to replace the milk in our refrigerator. Would love to have her again and highly recommend Oriana!”
“Ajia is amazing! We utilized her as a house sitter for the first time. She was very responsive, our dog (who can be timid at times) loved her and she was very clean and respectful of our space. Highly recommend.”
“Daniel took such great care of our 2 dogs while we were away! He was very communicative, competent and super sweet to our pups. We would definitely recommend his services!”
About: I've been around pets my entire life. I grew up with at least two dogs in the household at all times and have learned to care for them as puppies until it was their time to go. I am often asked to care for family and friends' animals I work remote full time, so my availability is open. I can be available on short notice for anything from a simple walk around the neighborhood to overnight care. Like humans, pets have their personalities, and I will be sure to care for them. If they are energetic and love to play, so am I. If they are in their senior years, I will tend to their needs and give them what they need and deserve.
“Kyle was awesome – he took great care of our dog Maya and gave plenty of updates. He also dealt with some unexpected issues with our home, and even helped coordinate building maintenance to start on repairs. We'll absolutely use Kyle as a sitter again.”
“Makaylah is a natural with animals and was a lifesaver when I had to take an unexpected trip. My dogs can be a bit wild with new people, but she quickly put them (and me) at ease. She kept me updated with plenty of photos showing all the snuggles and fun, which gave me real peace of mind. I’d absolutely trust her with them again.”
“The Best! Wayne and Jordan were amazing with my two rescue huskies while I was on vacation. The dogs are generally very cautious of strangers, and they were going through some sibling rivalry and needed to be kept apart - on separate floors of the house. Wayne and Jordan’s pet-sitting experience and patience were apparent in their daily communications and photos. It was great to see how the girls warmed up quickly! Each pup got lots of attention and exercise, and they were calm and happy when I got home. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The icing on the cake - the bedding was all washed and the house was clean when I got home. Highly Recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Antonia is such a great dog sitter. We always have full confidence that she will do a great job while watching our dog. She takes for walks, plays and makes our dog comfortable in every way. She always takes photos and sends them daily with any updates or issues. We love using her.”
About: With over 10 years of pet care experience (and a lifetime of having pets of my own), I truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I’ve also cared for friends’ and family’s pets, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and needs. I offer flexible scheduling, plenty of play and attention, and top-quality care, so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away! I work fully remote, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your pet’s specific bathroom and feeding routines. I’m available for boarding starting after 4pm on weekdays and after 12pm on weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I can easily crate your dog if needed and always follow your preferences and routines. I live on a quiet street with easy access to safe outdoor areas for regular potty walks and fresh air.
“Liliana was wonderful- responsive, prompt, attentive, kind, and responsible. She did a simply wonderful job of house sitting our beloved English Setter, Sherlock, for the whole day, and he loved having her quiet, affectionate attention. She kept me informed and sent photos of Sherlock.”

Sabrina was absolutely amazing! Bella clearly loved her, and I could tell she was very well cared for while I was away. Sabrina provided detailed updates and sent plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious she took the time to get to know Bella and make her feel comfortable. Bella can be particular at times, but Sabrina handled everything wonderfully. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Renee was very attentive and enthusiastic. Heidi had a park walk, a visit to Renee’s home and to an outdoor bar during her overnight stay. She was attentive to my handout and left the house spotless. I was glad we had an early meet&greet, since she was unable to come when we departed but came later.
Vivian stepped in as a last-minute replacement for another sitter and did a great job watching my two dogs. They seemed happy and well cared for, she followed all the routines and instructions and gave my older dog his medications. Would definitely book with Vivian again!
I may regret saying this because it could make it harder to book him in the future, but I can’t say enough good things about Leo! He was punctual, communicative, flexible, and genuinely kind throughout the entire experience. He has a calm, friendly nature that immediately put both me and my dog at ease. My Ollie is still generally cautious around strangers, but with Leo it was completely different. The moment Ollie spotted him from a distance, he was excited instead of fearful. He immediately approached him with confidence and comfort, which is incredibly rare for him. Watching that instant connection gave me complete peace of mind. It’s not often you find someone who is not only reliable and professional, but who also has such a natural connection with animals. I would absolutely trust Leo with Ollie again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.
Katherine took care of our dog in our home while we were away - if she had not been available we wouldn't have booked the tickets. The steady stream of communication, pictures and reassurances (our dog is not the easiest to care for) were amazing. We came home to a healthy and happy dog - who didn't seem to have overly missed us if I'm honest - and tidy home - with flowers on the table to welcome us back. We couldn't be happier with - well - literally everything about how she looked after our dog.
We have a senior dog with stranger anxiety and multiple daily medications and Karuna was wonderful with him. She was really patient and gave him time to warm up to her during a couple meet and greet visits, and then followed his lead when she was house sitting to ensure he felt comfortable with her. Karuna was very communicative and provided frequent updates including photos so we could enjoy our time away, knowing that our dog was well cared for.
Kaylee is amazing! Moosha loves her, and she’s so easy to work with. She gives updates with fun photos and is just generally a good person. And I’ve been burned before with dog sitters, so my trust doesn’t come easy. But I trust my gut. I’ll definitely be a returning client.
Ajia is INCREDIBLE! I seriously could not have asked for a better sitter. She was so responsive, took time to share all about Chelsea’s day, made sure to give her all the snuggles and even took her on longer walks than I had asked for. Absolutely amazing care and made me feel so at ease while I was traveling. I will always ask Ajia first for my overnight stays. Thank you x a million!! :)
Elizabeth is an amazing sitter! She watched our two dogs at our home, and provided exceptional care, with lots of regular updates. The dogs were very well cared for, with plenty of play time and puppy play dates. She clearly adores dogs and it shows! She also took great care of our home while we were away. Fantastic communication both before and during her stay. We absolutely will book with her again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
Joanna stepped in to take over for another Dogsitter saving my vacation. The transition was seamless. Although I didn’t get the chance to meet Joanna before the sitting, I spoke to her in the phone for at least half an hour and felt very comfortable with her. She took excellent care of my Ozzie, and he even tried to run after her taxi as she rode away. To top it off Joanna washed her sheets and towels before departing. She is a gem whom I would definitely rebook!
We have worked with Raven multiple times in the past for dog walking, and this was the first time we had her stay overnight for house sitting / dog sitting. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for these services! Raven was prompt and trustworthy in her communication, giving us frequent updates and also leaving our home just as tidy as she found it. We know our pup is in great hands with Raven, and we’ve already booked her again for our next upcoming trip where we will need multiple days of overnight care.
Rylee did a phenomenal job watching my two mini poodles, Callie and Millie! She was very patient with them (they can be little divas) and she provided excellent communication throughout her stay. AND my house was cleaner than when I left it! Will absolutely be hiring Rylee again!
