“Madeline was absolutely amazing! Best dog sitter I’ve had since losing my last go-to person. She made me feel so safe and comfortable while I was away, which means everything. She went above and beyond for my poochie and treated her with such care and love. Truly grateful.”

“Carson was very patient with me as I sorted out my schedule. She came highly recommended from the references she provided. She cared for my elderly dog, Penny, including administering a complicated regimen of medication. I would hire her again!”

“Chris has watched my dog, Clemente, twice now, and I couldn’t be happier! He’s extremely knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and clearly knows how to make them feel comfortable and cared for. My dog absolutely loves him! Chris is also a great communicator — he sends updates and photos throughout the day, which gives me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced sitter.”

About: I owned two dogs up until the age of 16 and loved them dearly. I often took my dogs out for long walks and played with them to make sure they were always active & engaged. Since then, I’ve dog/cat sat for numerous friends and neighbors throughout and post college. I always treat others’ animals with the same love and care as I did with my own! I currently work from home, so I have the flexibility to walk or play with your dog before 9am or in the afternoon and evenings if needed! Unfortunately I am unable to host at this time due to my resistance not allowing dogs, but I am available to dog sit in your home! I will ensure the comfort and safety of your dog at all times in a clean environment and can provide any specific additional/necessary support needed!
“Bryant was excellent with my senior dog. He was incredibly experienced in terms of my dog’s specific needs, including diaper changes and being mindful of her dementia traits. He was also very communicative and offered multiple updates throughout the day.”

“I highly recommend CeeCee for your pet and home sitting needs. We hired her to look after our overly affectionate cat and our quirky pit-mix pup while out of town for 6 days. CeeCee was communicative, sent pictures, and took care of needs as requested, including watering plants. She kept the house tidy, even throwing in a load of wash at the end of her stay. We will definitely be repeat customers for future pet sitting needs.”

“Clifmon was a fantastic dog sitter! He was very kind and took my Rivi wonderfully. He house-sat for me and was also very respectful of my place. I couldn't even tell someone was there while I was away. He was also very communicative and provided me with daily updates and pictures, so I stayed well-informed. I will be adding Clifmon as a regular sitter for sure.”

“Tosha is so great with my senior pup Rosie who is quite shy around new people. Rosie clearly loves her! I appreciate Tosha’s responsiveness and all of the photos she sends me. Thank you!!”

“Glad we went with Neil to house sit our Carl! Neil kept Carl fed and walked daily and does a great job of keeping us apprised of the latest on our pup. He also helped with applying topical medication as Carl is having skin issues on the ears. On top of it all, it was a pleasure to return home to a happy pup and a CLEAN apartment. We’d be using Neil again! (Note: Neil is our dog walker as well)”

About: I grew up with cats and they felt like sisters to me. I enjoy spending time with animals as they are very healing to me. I have a very flexible and open schedule at the moment for your pet sitting needs. I look forward to meeting your furry children :) I follow the instructions and notes given by clients or friends very carefully. I understand the boundaries the animal sets and I let it come to me when it’s ready.
“Liliana is an exceptional sitter who provided us with great updates about our pup while staying in our home. We could count on Liliana to care for our girl. We hope she comes again soon!”

About: I’ve had the joy of being around dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up with both small and large breeds since I was a little girl. Caring for them is a lifelong passion for me. I love not only spending time with dogs but also training them, learning about their unique personalities, and making sure they feel happy, healthy, and understood. My goal as a sitter is to give each dog the same level of love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is thriving while you’re away. As a freelance artist, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my day around the needs of the pets I care for. My work in the arts gives me the freedom to be present for regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Because I can easily adjust my routine, I’m able to give each pet consistent attention and love. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my own home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are in a secure environment that they are free from hazards, with access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and plenty of safe play space. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding routines to exercise schedules, and keep a watchful eye on the pet’s behavior and well-being. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and ensure it’s kept tidy and secure. My goal is to provide both the pet and their owner with peace of mind, knowing they’re in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment.
“Shariana took amazing care of our cats while we were away. She was very communicative and checked in regularly. She was super conscientious about our cats’ habits and needs. We felt confident that our cats would be happy and kept good company. She also left our apartment tidy and clean while she stayed at our place. Highly recommend trusting Shariana with your cats/pets.”
