“Marie was wonderful! She responded quickly, allowed us to book her stay last minute and made leaving our fur babies easy and peaceful. She's kind and thoughtful, everyone loved her. I would totally recommend Marie and her family!”
“We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter Margaret! She took excellent care of my dog, Otto, and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well-loved while I was traveling. I really appreciated the regular updates with pictures and great communication—it gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, kind and caring pet sitter!”

“Jessie was great with Wolfie and she provided pictures over the weekend so we could see how well he was doing! She also communicated in a timely way to keep us updated on how things were going.”

About: I have been called Dr. Dolittle my entire life. I have a knack for connecting with animals of all kinds. My very first job was working at a local farm with all different types of animals like horses, goats, pigs, chickens, ducks, etc. It was one of my favorite jobs, I got lucky! I also worked at a dog boarding facility which gave me experience working with multiple dogs at once. I always give animals the space to have their specific personality and the respect they deserve, as I would treat a human. Animals are often misunderstood, I’ve always tried to meet them where they stand. If there is one thing I am confident in, it’s making an animal feel safe and comfortable. And they do the same for me :) I would love to meet your faithful friend and see if they find me worthy of a tail wag or a belly pet! I currently work a very flexible part-time job. I have a lot of availability and can be very flexible. Working with animals is more than a job to me, I very much enjoy it. I will find ways to work with you and your pets personal needs. I love to schedule a meet-up before providing pet care. This is just to see that we are all on the same page and everyone feels it's a good fit. I do not offer home services. I will travel to your home so your pet can be where they are most comfortable. I work around you and your pets comfort. As a pet owner myself, I understand it can be hard to leave your companions in someone else’s care. I want to do what it takes to make you feel 100% safe and at ease when leaving your furbabies in my care.

“Rich is very responsible, he took care of Shiraz in our home while we were away. He spent lots of time with Shiraz so that he wouldn’t have to be crated, we were very grateful for him.”

“Stephen is a phenomenal communicator, with humans and pups. He’s very friendly and professional, and is terrific at what he does! Look forward to having him sit for our brood again soon.”

“Kevin was amazing!! He took care of our new puppy when we unexpectedly adopted and had an international trip coming up. Couldn’t have asked for someone to take better care of our pup!”


About: I've been taking care of dogs for over 12 years. And love them like they was family. And I watch all my friends and families dogs. I also work for wag. I have open availability for boarding. My favorite animal is a dog i always wants to be with dogs. ( i use to own cats too incase any feline friends need. I had 4 dogs growing up and as a child it was my job to care for them. When my parents sold the house because of their split they split the dogs
“Jeffrey takes great care of our pup, Tia. We used him for visits and walks prior to our most recent week vacation. We recently went away for a week and Jeffrey stayed at our home. He followed any/all directions we had left for our dog and kept us in the loop daily when we checked in. We trust him to stay in our home and take great care of our dog. Our dog is typically anxious and when we got home from our trip, we saw that Tia ate very well while we were gone which is sometimes a struggle when we leave her. We were very happy with her care. We look forward to continuing to use Jeffrey for future trips and daily walks.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and currently have two dogs and a hedgehog of my own 💗 Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to help with walks, feeding, check-ins, and giving their pets attention when they need it. I have experience with different personalities from energetic pups to shy or older pets, and I always take the time to understand what makes each animal comfortable. I work part-time during the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care 🐾 I’m available Sundays and around my shifts for walks, feeding, check-ins, playtime, and overnight stays. I’m happy to keep pets active with walks and play or spend quiet time with pets who just want company 🤍 I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family 🐶🤍 I’m patient with nervous pets, comfortable caring for senior pets, and experienced with following specific routines. I can administer oral medications, ear drops, and eye drops when needed, and I always make sure owners’ instructions are followed carefully.
“Jason was great with our animals. He sent some photos and kept in touch letting us know how everything was going and how sweet our pets were for him. We hope to be able to book him again in the future.”

About: I love finding lots of places to explore and run around. Love going for walks around the neighborhood would love to take your pup's with me. I enjoy animals and I would love to play with them outside. I have house sat before for friends and it's fun. I work full time but my schedule right now is very flexible and I have alot of time on my hands. I grew up with the sweetest cat and playing with neighbors dogs. I'd love to take care of some animals again. Thank you I'm currently working full time but I'm ready to start picking up some extra work. Taking care of your pet would be a fun change from my daily routine. Unfortunately I live in an apartment now so I'm unable to host any pets here. But I'm happy to come to your home to take care of your fur babies. I like going for long walks or hikes. Sometimes when they get some good exercise they feel better. It's important to me to make sure your pet feels comfortable with spending time with me. And at the end of the day it's a treat to see me not a chore for them.
“Courtney is great. She took great care of all of my pups and was incredibly communicative throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Courtney to anyone who wants to leave their dogs in good hands.”

“Marcella's Mom, Ivana, took care of our dog Beau for a week while we were away. She is great. She's personable, responsible and proactive. She asked for instructions before hand, followed them and took very good care of Beau. She sent daily updates with pictures too. We will definitely ask if she is available if we need a dog sitter again.”

“Maria is extremely well qualified to take care of your beloved pet. She took very good care of Tika while we were away for a long weekend Tika is an anxious active dog who craves affection and exercise and Maria provided both. We felt very confident that our home and our beloved hound were safe while Maria was in charge. Maria was also willing to take care of putting out seeds for the birds in the garden (this chilly weekend very important) and went to the extra effort to make sure Tika got long walks and made sure to have her wear a jacket and harness! When we returned of course Tika was happy to see us but she also clearly had bonded with Maria We we’re lucky Maria had availability and hope we can book her again the next time we leave town and can’t bring Tika”
