“Jean was amazing with our two dogs and two cats. We had gone out of town and were so fortunate to have Jean stay at our home. She provided updates, photos, truly loves animals. We would love to dog have Jean back with us again soon.”


“We love Beau and always feel so assured knowing that they’re going to come stay with our dog. Our dog can be pretty shy and nervous around strangers but he opened right up to Beau and seemed like he had a great time! I love that they send lots of photos and updates throughout the stay and they always leave our house neat and tidy. 10/10!!”


“Katie was such a great and reliable sitter. She was very communicative, respectful and took great care of our two dogs. She sent lots of photos while we were away and left the house spotless when we returned. We'll most definitely hire her again!”


“Alex was amazing! I got daily photos or videos which was so nice while I was away. Alex was eager to hear how they can make my kitty feel loved and comfortable and was even willing to watch him eat when he wanted 😂 my home was immaculate when I got back and my kitty didn’t seem excited to see me when I got home cause he was so well taken care of. Will def book Alex again.”


“Shana was wonderful with our Louie! He really doesn’t like being left alone—he gets anxious. It was so great to come home to a happy and relaxed boy!! And Shana sent great updates and pictures—we’ll definitely be booking her again!!”


“I have a reactive dog who struggles to meet new people, especially men. And wow! I was totally blown away by how Robert used such confidence and gentleness with my dog. He was able to snag Winston to the dog park for the first time in years successfully. I am honestly so grateful and surprised to have found such a solid dog sitter. I cannot recommend booking him enough!!”

“Julia is a great sitter! She gave many detailed updates and great photos of the pets. She left the place very clean and even cleaned up a mess the cat made. Truly appreciate her being able to help on such short notice. Will definitely book with her again!”


“Shawn was great with our large fur baby family. She gave them all personalized attention and was attentive, responsive, and patient with them, especially our pup who takes more time to trust new people. She was very communicative with us via updates & photos, so we were comforted with the knowledge that our babies were well cared for during our trip. Thanks so much, Shawn!”


“I was able to make a last-minute booking with Alina and Amiran for the same evening, and they were incredibly responsive and accommodating. They took such great care of my dog, who has separation anxiety, and made sure he felt loved and comfortable the entire time. They gave him lots of attention and even took him on a nice walk (pictures and videos also provided), which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend them!”


About: Me and my family have owned 2 dogs and I have dog sat for 9 other dogs. I have cared for dogs of many different ages and breed. I have dog sat for the same families multiple times and they have trusted their dogs in my care. I respect and give the dogs the attention they need by feeding them on time, keeping their water bowl full, giving them plenty of potty breaks and making sure to pick up after them, taking them on walks, and playing with them. I have had a great experience with dog sitting! I am a college student/athlete at Northwest University. I am currently in school but still have time to care for your pet! My classes are spread out enough during the day where I can frequently spend time with your pet. I will make sure I know the wants and wishes of my client and make sure to keep the pet in the designated areas, whether that be to stay off the couch or if they are not allowed to go into a certain room. I will make sure the pet will have the everything they need available to them and make sure they feel safe around me. It is, without a doubt, important to me that I be respectful to my client, their pet, and their house.

About: I’ve spent my life around animals and caring for them has always been second nature to me. From energetic pups to independent cats, I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. I’ve provided care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and sizes—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, administering medication, or just being a calming, familiar presence while their people are away. I prioritize consistency, safety, and lots of love. My goal is always to ensure your pets feel as comfortable and cared for as they do when you’re home. I’m currently working part-time so I’m available, as my work schedule is flexible! Whatever your needs, I’ll try my best to accommodate yours and your animal’s timeline! Secure Home Entry/Exit: I double-check doors, gates, and windows to prevent escapes or accidents, especially with curious cats or excitable dogs. Leash & Harness Checks: Before every walk, I ensure leashes and harnesses are properly fitted and secure.

“Cory is absolutely amazing. He stayed at my house for 8 days with my two King Charles Cavaliers, one is blind. He took such good care of them and sent me a lot of photos and messages. They were so happy when I got home and I don’t think they even missed me! I definitely recommend Cory you will be glad you did.”


“Jean and Elena are the best and I appreciate so much how well they take care of my two energetic and needy Golden Retrievers. They stay in the house with them and take care of them like they are their own dogs. My house is immaculately clean when I come home and my dogs are happy and not stressed. They have been taking care of my dogs for the last two years for 3 - 10 days at a time when I travel with my kids for athletic events. When they come over my dogs are so excited to see them and i know they are well taken care of! Jean and Elena are clearly dog lovers as they are just as excited as the dogs are. They get the top rating!”


“Alec is great to work with! Honest, kind and on time. I needed help to watch my pup during surgery at 4am . Alec was there to help and I will definitely work with him again! He was so gentle, kind and caring towards my pup and it meant the world to me! Thank you, Alec! Look forward to the next time!”


“Anam is a FANTASTIC house/pet sitter! She stayed at our house for 3 weeks and we came home to a clean house and VERY happy animals! I would highly recommend Anam as she is kind, communicative, and responsible. She sent us updates and pictures regularly and even took our kitty to the vet while we were gone. Amazing! We will absolutely be hiring her in the future!”


About: I have been taking care of dogs for the last 9 years and have 2 dogs of my own who I have raised since they were 8 weeks old. They are currently 7 years old and 7 months old giving experience with all ages and extreme patience after months of raising the puppy. I work from home and my dogs get a great level of attention as a result of this. I am always available and able to provide frequent walks and stimulation. For local clients I can be available in a pinch due to my flexible work schedule. I have two dogs and can take dogs who do well with other dogs. Assuming they all get along they would get the same treatment as my own dogs. Plenty of walks, at least one long walk a day, lots of play time, and a consistent schedule. House sitting will include regular visits along with extended time spent with your pet during the work day as well. I am always available for walking appointments with my flexible schedule.

“Sophia was just what we needed! We were gone traveling for over three weeks, and our two kitties do not do well in a kennel. Sophia provided overnight care, food, litter box cleaning, and the love our kitties needed, and brought in our mail, etc. She sent pictures along the way of cuddling and playing kittens, and arrived home to happy and well cared for cats and a clean home. Thanks, Sophia, can't wait to have you stay again. <3”


“Sandra was GREAT! She was very responsive, communicated amazingly, took notes, gave daily updates, sent pictures. Honestly, I also came home to a cleaner home than what I had left as well which was not expected or necessary. She is also absolutely one of the kindest/sweetest pet sitters that ive met by far, and i know my Max was cared for as I care for him which made me feel so much better being away. Will absolutely be booking her again.”

Morgan P.
“Morgan has been an awesome dog sitter for us! She comes to our house most days while I am at work to help with our black lab, Rosie. She will take Rosie for a walk, play with her, and just give her some good attention. Morgan is extremely reliable and responsible. She even taught Rosie a few simple tricks like "shake" and "down" when Rosie was about 6 months old. Morgan's been a lifesaver for us!”


Dominique Y.
“I can’t think of anyone more perfect to care for your pets than Dominique. She has the biggest heart of anyone I know, and her love for animals runs incredibly deep. I had the privilege of watching her care for her senior dog, Maxine, and it was one a beautiful experience to witness. Dominique gave Maxine the life every dog deserves, full of love, adventure, and tenderness. She took her to the beach, on road trips, to watch sunsets, and made every moment special. Despite the extra care Maxine needed, Dom always made her a priority. She was patient and loving. She treats animals like family, and you can trust that your dog or cat will be safe, loved, and genuinely cared for in her hands. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their sitter :)”
