Eric was great housesitting our 11-month-old Akita! He asked great questions ahead of time to get to know his personality and anything we were concerned about. Our dog is a bit reactive on his leash, which didn’t phase Eric at all. He seemed very comfortable with dogs in general, and we felt confident he would do a good job! We also got regular updates while we were away, and all was well when we returned.

Lindsey was a great communicator, respectful of our home, and handled our fur babies well. She kept us informed of issues while we were away and was also responsive with any questions or concerns we had. We'd hire her again and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter. Thank you Lindsey!

About: I’m now offering dog walking and would love to meet your pup! 🐾 I have a deep love for animals and a strong understanding of dog behavior, so your dog will be in caring, capable hands. Expect reliable walks, happy tails, and photo updates along the way. I’m excited to get to know the dogs in the neighborhood—book with me today! I’m filling up with regular clients and I love getting exercise with the same pups on a regular basis. *Close in Old Town preferred. I also offer limited house sitting for regular clients only and unfortunately cannot provide 24/7 care. I’m very active, and my flexible schedule allows me to prioritize consistent, attentive pet care throughout the day, including walks, playtime, and reliable check-ins as needed. I follow each pet’s routine, provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of loving attention, ensuring a safe and comfortable home environment at all times.

I feel so grateful to have found Cassandra! She is responsive and profressional in communications and very attentive to my older pups needs. She sent daily updates and pictures and I came home to a well-cared and happy dog. I think Archie would agree that we will certainly hire Cassandra for pet sitting again in the future.

Andrea is a great house/dogsitter. I booked her for the first time last weekend. She was very responsive and we had a very constructive meet and greet, during which she asked many questions and took copious notes. Andrea reached out to me—without prompting—before she arrived the day of her sitting, to confirm she was coming and what time she’d be there, which placed me at ease. During her stay, Andrea gave me appropriate status checks, including when she left. She left the house in great shape. I would definitely recommend Andrea for house sitting and intend to use her again soon.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had cats my whole life, have experience pet sitting dogs and cats, and previously worked at an animal shelter caring for animals of all ages and temperaments. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, and I treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work part-time in the mornings, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time throughout the day to give pets the attention, care, playtime, and companionship they need. I’m an early riser and love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing with energetic pets, or giving shy pets the patience and comfort they need to feel safe. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family and always focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I have three very playful, social cats of my own, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I also previously worked as a kennel attendant at an animal shelter, where I cared for both cats and dogs by feeding them, administering medication, bathing dogs, and working with pets of many different personalities and energy levels. I’m comfortable caring for shy, senior, high-energy, and young pets, and I always follow each owner’s routine and instructions carefully. I’m happy to send updates and photos as often as owners would like so they always feel connected and reassured while away.

Bella was incredibly well cared for during our absence. Ahmed looked after every detail and was in constant contact updating me with photos and videos which was really helpful to easing any anxiety we had in leaving our little Yorkie. Ahmed even came back Sunday afternoon to give Bella another walk and treat to bridge the time before I returned home. I couldn’t have been more pleased with this caregiver; thank you Ahmed!!

Nikole took care of our two puppies for 5 days, she dis an excellent job sending us updates and pictures of them while we were on vacation. She stayed in our home every night so the puppies don’t stay alone during the day she kept the schedule we requested her to follow. I will definitely book her again.

Auston and Kaitlyn our lifesavers. They were able to take care of our lovely cats and dogs complete with a lot of special care needed for a couple of our four legged friends. They were able to juggle our needs with everything going on in their life and we were just blessed to find them. I would highly recommend them for your daily pet care or overnight.

This is the second time Ahmed has stayed with Bella. Ahmed went above and beyond in making sure Bella was taken care of while we were away. He made a trip to our house before the stay to make sure he understood her medicine and feeding routine. He was very communicative and made me feel very comfortable while I was away. Also there was a problem with many of the smoke alarms in the house and Ahmed went the extra mile to take the units down to stop them from making the alarm. I couldn’t recommend Robin and Ahmed more highly. Kind and good people.
