About: What sets me apart? I don’t just “watch” pets — I vibe with them. I’m the kind of sitter who talks to your dog like we’ve been besties for years and gives your cat space like the royalty they are. I bring love, energy, and just the right amount of spoiling (yes, belly rubs included). I’ve got a soft heart for animals and a sixth sense for their moods — whether they need zoomies in the yard or a cozy couch nap. I’m reliable, always on time, and I send photo updates like I’m running your pet’s Instagram. Basically? I’m the sitter your pet brags about to their friends. 🐾😎 I’m fully available on Wednesdays and Sundays for pet care services — whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays. On Saturdays, I’m available after 5 PM. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and keep things as consistent and comfortable for them as possible. If you have specific timing needs, feel free to reach out — I’ll always do my best to accommodate! When I’m caring for pets in your home, I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their familiar space. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine — from feeding and potty breaks to playtime and bedtime snuggles (if they’re into that!). I keep things clean, calm, and consistent, and I always send updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I respect your home like it’s my own and always leave things just as I found them — or better!


“Sam was absolutely amazing with my puppy Covey! From the very beginning, he was communicative, punctual, and clearly experienced with dogs—especially energetic little ones like mine. He was so patient and gentle, and Covey took to him right away (which says a lot!). I appreciated the updates and photos during their walk—it gave me peace of mind knowing Covey was in good hands. Sam really went the extra mile, making sure Covey got her energy out and came back happy and calm. Would absolutely recommend Sam to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. Covey and I are both looking forward to booking him again!”


About: I started caring for pets in 2018, beginning with two adult Labradors. In 2022, I began looking after my own three kittens, starting when they were just three months old. Later, a German Shepherd and two more kittens joined my family. I love interacting with animals—they are adorable, innocent, and truly wonderful. I'm currently a full-time worker from home, which gives me plenty of time to care for and play with your pets. I will build a positive and trusting relationship with your pet. If they’re shy, I’ll give them the space and respect they need to feel comfortable. I take daily responsibilities seriously—preparing clean food, cleaning the litter box, tidying up, and offering loving companionship are all part of my routine. Your pet’s comfort and well-being come first. I clean the litter box for my cats twice a day—once in the morning and once in the evening. I always make sure there's fresh water in the waterer and enough food in the feeder. I spend as much time with them as I can, patiently playing, grooming their fur, and brushing their teeth. I closely monitor their well-being and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and healthy at home.

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life. I started with my own dogs and cats and later helped friends, family, and neighbors with everything from quick visits to extended stays. I have experience with animals of all ages and temperaments, including puppies, senior pets, fish, and birds. I’m comfortable with walks, feedings, litter changes, medication, and even a little training when needed. Whether it’s a shy cat or a playful pup, I treat every pet like family. I always show up with patience, love, and plenty of attention. I’m currently in between full-time roles, which means I have the flexibility and time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available for boarding on weekends and pet care during the week after 2 PM. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just company, your pet will be my top priority. I provide pet care in your home so your pet can stay in a familiar, comfortable space. I follow your instructions closely and treat your pet with the same care I’d give my own. I’ll also respect your home and routines with just as much care and professionalism.

About: I unfortunately do not have much experience with dogs but I am happy and willing to learn! I started working as a dog walker in another app 3 years ago so I know a little of what to expect and what things to bring with me just in case. As I mentioned, im fairly new to taking care of doggos but on the bright side, one of the things of being a college student is that im almost always home, thus, I will always be with the pet in case they need anything and I can for sure be with them all day 🥰 ( Currently I am volunteering at a hospital since I am on summer break from classes so I will be out of my house from 9-1:30pm but before and after that I am mainly home to take care of doggies. I want all owners to beware of this in my schedule in case they dont like their doggies being left alone for 4 hours or so. ( I will not be away from home more than that) Thank you for your patience and for your trust in me when taking care of your babies ❤️🥰 Im currently a full-time college student, thus, my schedule changes very often. Currently I am on summer break until late september so I am most free to take care of dogs but I did get into volunteering at a hospital monday thru friday so just beware that I will be gone from 9-1:30pm . I unfortunately do not have a fenced yard since I live in a small apartment but on the good side, It is only 3 of us who live in these apartments. So, there are no other pets in here and if I were to bring a pet, they would be comfortable since they would not be bothered by other pets! Also, I live very near a park so it would be easy to at least walk a bit and have the doggo do their business there 🥰

About: Professional Pet and House Sitter Are you looking for a loving, responsible, reliable, and trustworthy sitter to care for your pets and home? I have experience as a professional pet and house sitter, which also includes years of being blessed with pet companions and owning and maintaining several properties. Know that your pets will be well loved, cared for, and given the attention that is required while you are away if you choose to hire me. One of my pet sitting highlights was a position for five months in Vieques, PR, caring for four cats, a garden and home. During this time I donated my services weekly at the Humane Society walking dogs —as it lights me up to give back to the community. I work from home and have a wonderful background in coaching, wellness, and business. If you need any additional services, please inquire. (Phone calls, mail, security, transformational life coaching, sober companion and recovery mentorship - in addition to regular rate.) As well as a background in pet sitting and property management, I also have worked in holistic health, energy work, spirituality, recovery mentorship and life coaching. Now that I have raised my child and no longer have any pets of my own, it gives me great joy to care for those you love. References available upon request. Thank you for your consideration. Why I love dog sitting Dogs have been a part of my life for the past 40 years. As a young child my family had toy poodles and a Lhasa apso. Later in life, I was blessed with a Husky and three Cocker Spaniels that accompanied me on life's journey. Growing up, we were also blessed to share the company of several cats as well. They were mostly outdoor adventurers...but also enjoyed quality time with our family. Sharing time walking dogs at the Vieques Island Humane Society in Puerto Rico during a five month visit was a highlight in my life. It gave me an opportunity to work with a great variety of breeds as their shelter houses 100+ dogs (with another 50 in foster care). I also took a lot of great photos and helped them gain greater visibility for their shelter. It was rewarding to make a difference while there. I am known to be a bit of a mystical nomad because of my love of travel. Dog and house sitting on this adventure of life has helped create a lifestyle that allows me to pursuit my passion for exploring this beautiful world. I work from home and love animals (with currently none of my own), so happy to share love with your fur babies! It brings me joy to be outdoors and share walks, so they will be sure to enjoy some play time too! Please share with me details that make your pets feel loved and comfortable. Let me know how to best keep your little ones happy, the level of attention that works best for them.

Sabrina V.
“Our Bentley loves staying with Sabrina! She is very professional and prompt at keeping us updated when she sits for us. I would highly recommend her to friends and family.”


Andrea Y.
“We met Andrea approximately three years ago when we began to take our then puppy to Petsmart for day camp and boarding as needed. Our pup was immediately drawn to her fun and loving nature, and I was so impressed with her compassion and diligence in caring for all the dogs. As a new dog owner I often sought out Andrea for advice about behavioral issues; her extensive experience with dogs both at work and in her personal life was very clear and helpful. Because of his significant separation anxiety and other behavioral concerns our dog is not currently been able to be boarded so Andrea has become our go to dog sitter in the home. In addition, I recently needed to go out of town and wanted our pup to join but knew not all activities would be dog friendly. The solution- Andrea travelled with us caring for him and helping us tremendously with all his needs. I would highly recommend Andrea for any dog care needs you may have. She is reliable, knowledgeable and most loving to all four legged family members.”


Eugene C.
“Eugene is a conscientious, caring, and enthusiastic caregiver who will make sure your pet is safe, loved, and having fun while you are gone! While watching my dog and cat, he kept both entertained and exercised. I got regular (and very nicely art-directed) photos and updates so I knew my pets were in good hands. He is by far our household's favorite pet-sitter.”




Jacqueline B.
“Jacqueline was one of the best House Sitters to ever sit my place. The house was left clean & tidy... and my Cats were calm, relaxed & well cared for upon my return. She also drove a car and kept it in good shape. While on the sit, there was a problem that required re-welding the car door. Jacqueline followed through with the repair and stayed calm, cool & collected in the process. She exemplifies the Loving-Kindness Life focus I was looking for. Our weekly communication during the 5 months was detailed and organized. Jaqueline's Great with animals. As a volunteer, she took the dogs from the Humane Society here on Friday afternoon walks. Dependable, Tidy, Kind, Giving and Solid would be apt descriptions of Jacqueline. I'd be pleased to have her House Sit for me again. ”
