“Aleya was absolutely amazing while house-sitting and caring for Oscar! She provided plenty of photos, maintained constant communication, and truly went above and beyond to make sure Oscar was well cared for while recovering from some stomach issues. She handled his medication responsibly and gave me complete peace of mind throughout the stay. She also left the house very clean. I would 100% book Aleya again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter!”

“Emily is great! She sent continual updates and pictures throughout her time house sitting. It was clear that besides regular walks she also spent lots of time hanging out and cuddling with my dog, who is very affectionate and needs the attention. Would definitely book again!”

Nicole D.

“Elisa kept Big Daddy (and our house) well cared for during our week long trip. Big D was super chill upon our return, always a sign that he got plenty of attention and walks while we were away. We look forward to booking with her again soon!”

“Suzy was such a wonderful dog/house sitter! Incredibly communicative, so gentle and loving with Strudel, and was a wonderful house guest on top of it all. She took frame-worthy pictures, she was very punctual about all times discussed, responded quickly, was professional, and she took care of our house and kept it clean during her stay. Would not hesitate to book again!”

“Susan has been an amazing sitter for Dobby. She went above and beyond to take care of his meals since my dog is the absolute pickiest eater you can ever come across. She also took him out on long walks, kept him engaged and made sure that he felt absolutely at home and safe in my absence. She was also very kind to him and took incredible care of him when he had an upset stomach for a couple of days. I will definitely look forward to having Susan sit Dobby again in my absence.”

“Kathleen stayed with our pets for a long weekend - a dog (often reactive to other dogs) and 2 indoor cats. Everything went very smoothly. We were kept informed with texts and pictures and none of the pets looked like they missed us AT ALL!! The dog even slept with Kathleen one night. When we got home, it was apparent Kathleen had cleaned up our house, leaving us very little to do which was a hugely welcome gift from her. We definitely will book with Kathleen again.”

About: I truly believe pets are part of the family—and when they’re in my care, that’s exactly how I treat them. ❤️ I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including walking, drop-in visits, and caring for them in both my home and their own homes. I love getting to know each dog and figuring out what makes them happy. Whether they want to play, go for a good walk, get lots of attention, or simply curl up beside me, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m an active, engaged pet sitter and love playing, talking to, and spending time with my furry friends. Once they’re in my care, they become part of my family. I enjoy playing with cats too, and giving them attention, but I also understand that many cats are happiest doing their own thing. I’m perfectly comfortable letting a cat have their space while keeping a watchful eye and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, fed, and cared for. My home is smoke-free, clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I keep food safely stored in cupboards and maintain a clean and sanitized environment. I’m mindful about keeping floors and common areas clean and making sure pets have a safe, comfortable place to relax. I have lengthy experience with large aquarium set ups with fish, turtles, geckos and lizards. Most importantly, I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of your pet’s individual routine and personality. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated while you’re away, and treat your home and belongings with the same care I would want someone to give mine. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a playmate, a quiet companion, medication reminders, a cozy place to stay, or simply someone to keep them company—I’m happy to help. Your pets aren’t just pets to me. They’re little members of the family, and they deserve to be treated that way. 🐾 I do not have experience nor am I compatible with aggressive dogs or large dogs who pull on the leash. I hope you find another trusted sitter who can handle your dogs needs. Meet n Greets are required for first time services. Please allow the necessary time frames. My current availability is as such: Flexibility on the weekends and on Wednesdays during the day for regular and drop in-walks, drop-in visits and pet care. Holidays: Same availability and services at a modified fee. I’m also happy to care for pets in my home for doggy daycare care or boarding when the timing is a good fit. I know pets do best with consistency, so I’ll work with you to understand their normal routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. As my schedule changes, I will update my availability as quickly as I can. When you leave your pet in someone else’s care, trust matters. I take that responsibility seriously. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always come first. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, stick to their normal routines as much as possible, and pay attention to the little things that help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well while you’re away. I treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure, make sure doors and gates are properly closed, and never take shortcuts when it comes to your pet’s safety. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to doing what I say I’ll do. If something unexpected comes up, I’ll communicate with you rather than making assumptions. Most importantly, I understand that your pet isn’t “just a pet.” They’re family. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, comfortable pet—and to feel confident that they were cared for with kindness, patience, and genuine attention while you were gone.

“Emily was wonderful with my pug puppy, Peaches! She watched her for the weekend, and I felt at ease knowing she was in great hands. Emily was communicative, prompt, and kept me updated with messages and photos. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. Would definitely book again!”

“Hannah was an incredible guardian for Higgins at our home during our week-long trip. She followed our care guide closely and gave great attention to every detail of our labradoodle's care (walking, mealtimes, snuggles) AND to treating our home like it was her own, we truly couldn't have asked for better!! Hannah asked considerate and thorough questions about our pet's specific needs, and provided excellent updates day-to-day to ensure the best experience possible. It was obvious how much love and professionalism she brought into the experience, and clear that she is not only a wonderful friend to animals, she is also a wonderful person! We are happy to have Hannah in our orbit and would book her again in a heart beat.”

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and farm animals that I cared for over many years; caring for animals is ingrained in me. Being with animals brings me joy, plain and simple. I've fostered animals for months while working with PACT - a temporary pet fostering organization that requires a background check. I also worked at the Humane Society for 4 years and have had many cats and dogs of my own. I’m a nursing student, so I have a flexible schedule that will allow me to take care of your cat / pup however you need :)

“Rebecca was awesome! She took great care of my dog and was super responsive to requests. We recently moved apartments and she was flexible with resolving issues in the new place and helped coordinate giving a key to a new roommate. I returned home to a happy and well cared for pup.”

Abby M.

“Ty is super helpful and communicative! And our cat loves him! Cat barely comes out to play with other sitters, but Ty always seems to entice our cat to play, and sends pics. Thanks Ty!”

Lamar M.

“Quick response. Great communication! Took care of my Kaci well. Will be booking again.”

Kereen C.

“Asia took great care of our pup, Juniper, as well as our house. She was really helpful and responsive to our messages. Our flights kept changing and Asia was flexible and made sure Juniper wouldn’t be left alone too long waiting, especially while there were thunderstorms (which scare Juniper). We came home to a happy healthy pup!”

Jennifer S.

“I had a great experience with Sun! I really appreciated that they asked to do a meet and greet beforehand, which made me feel comfortable and confident leaving my dog in their care. I booked extremely last minute, and he was very accommodating and worked with me to make everything happen. They kept me updated throughout the entire process and did a wonderful job taking care of my dog. I would definitely book with him again!”

“Jasmine did a great job watching Joey at our house for the weekend we were gone. She followed all instructions, was highly communicative, and we came home to a happy, healthy dog and a clean house. Highly recommend her!”

About: For 12 years, I cared for my 115-lb German Shepherd through every stage of his life. He was leash-reactive, so I know how to read body language, manage leash walks safely, and keep big, strong dogs under control without stress or force. If your pup pulls, lunges, or needs space from other dogs, I've handled it daily for years. I also have experience with puppies — the energy, the training, the potty breaks, and the constant supervision that comes with them. Whether your dog is brand new to the world or well into their golden years, I can meet them where they are. In his senior years, my Shepherd used a wheelchair, so I have hands-on experience with elderly and disabled pets: mobility assistance, patience with slower walks, medication routines, and the extra attentiveness aging animals need. Senior pets and special-needs pets aren't a challenge for me — they're my specialty. I'm also comfortable and experienced with cats, so multi-pet households are no problem. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy, old and slow, reactive, or requires special care, they'll be safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I work from home, which makes pet care a natural part of my day. My schedule is flexible — outside of occasional virtual meetings, I can stop by your place for potty breaks, walks, or check-ins at whatever times work best for your pet's routine. My evenings are always free. If your dog stays in my home, they'll have company all day long. I'm here from morning to night, so they'll never be left alone or feel lonely. My dog Kato recently passed away, so I don’t have any pets in my home at this time. I really miss having a walking buddy so I’m excited to spend some time with your fur baby. I don't have a yard, but I have a covered outdoor patio with a doggy door and a turf potty pad, so quick potty breaks are easy anytime. For real exercise, I love taking dogs on walks around my neighborhood — walks are one of my favorite parts of pet care. I'm experienced with crating if that's part of your dog's routine; I don't have a crate of my own, so you're welcome to bring yours. My home has stairs, and your pup is welcome upstairs with me while I work and sleep — they'll be by my side, not shut away somewhere alone.

“Ivan was a calming presence for our pets in our absence. We appreciated his photo updates and each pet was relaxed and happy in the pictures. We arrived home to a quiet, happy house. Thank you Ivan!”
