“Stephen is very experienced and mature, not to mention friendly. We only needed to him to be a companion initially, but we will trust him with much more complex situations if one arises.”
“This is the second time Chris watched our dog and cat. 100 stars! She is so kind and compassionate and sends me multiple pictures and messages while we are gone. Highly recommend!”
“There aren’t enough good things to say about Joelle! She was communicative, kind, compassionate, and respectful in every way - with our animals and their quirks, our home, etc. She sent us pictures and was prompt in all responses. This also was a last minute request due to a previous sitter following through. Such a treasure to find her, and we look forward to working with her much more! Thank you, Joelle!”
“Tracy is a phenomenal! She stayed with our 2 dogs and cat for more than a week. The pets and our home were well cared for. Tracy is reliable, attentive and our pets are super comfortable with her. We look forward to working with her again and highly recommend her services.”
“Shanisa was wonderful. She kept me updated everyday. She left my home cleaner than she found it. All my neighbors said she was nice too. Highly recommend and would/will use services again.”
“Jessica did a fantastic job staying with my dogs while we were out of town. She was very thoughtful and regularly sent updates and pictures. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“June was great watching our two dogs and cat while staying at her house. She was flexible and reached out with questions as needed. We'll definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: I grew up with a dog and several cats until I was 18. My mother adopted a miniature dachshund puppy and I and my husband became her primary caregivers in 2017 until she passed in 2022. I have a ton of experience with senior dogs, administering medicine, walking, and time at the dog park. I am happy to check in on cats and give them at home attention as well. We are pet-obsessed at our house - we consider all fur babies buddies and want to give pets and love to them all. I am happy follow any and all instructions you give me for your babies. I will provide scritches, loving and all the treats you allow. It’s important that you trust me with your babies and I am happy to take on challenging scenarios, including senior care, medicine administration, complex diets and specialized activity. I work full time ~8:30 - 4:30 M - F with a hybrid schedule. Ideally, I’d do drop ins on my remote days and on weekends. I don’t watch others’ pets in my home because our current dog is reactive. But she is spoiled with toys, walks, and snuggles and I would do the same in your home for your pets.
About: My fur baby genuinely makes every day of my life better. Pets are the purest form of love and trust, and it is so special that we get to share that! I love animals of all shapes and sizes, including ones that have more than 4 legs 🕷️ reptiles 🦎 or rodents 🐀 I have been pet/house sitting since my teenage years, for neighbors, family members, and by recommendation. I love the outdoors and being active, if your pet does too we are sure to have ourselves an adventure! Young or senior, your pet will have their needs tended to and their senses engaged (or respect their space if they prefer to have less socialization). I currently do freelance work and I can make and set my own schedule. I have a lot of flexibility to tend to your fur babies! I am a very empathetic human, so making sure your animal is happy and healthy fills me with joy! I respect and understand that every fur baby is different and has their own needs and personality. I look forward to listening & learning what your pet loves and needs!
“We were SO impressed with Olivia. She housesat for us and our pup for five nights. She sent lots of pictures of our pup getting lots of exercise! Our pup looked super happy and content! She sent messages every day updating us on what she and our pup did! We felt very comfortable leaving her with our dog and sitting at our home for 5 nights. She also kept our home very neat and clean! She was very professional. We will definitely be using her again in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Miya was great with our dogs. We really appreciated her spending extra time with them while we were away. It made our drive home that more less pressured to find out she stayed longer than necessary to reduce the time our puppy had to spend in her crate. Trustworthy, kind, and communicative!”
“Gina was amazing!! From the initial meeting, our puppies took to her right away and I could tell it would be a great fit. She was very attentive with them and just a lovely person! She sent updates often with pictures and videos which my family loved. I’m pretty sure our pups were spoiled when we were gone and they probably will miss her! I will definitely use her services again in the future and recommend her to everyone!!”
“Meg was a great house-sitter and she took excellent care of my aging kitty. I really appreciate the care Meg took to make sure that he was brushed, fed, and watered. She even read him cat books! When I got home, it was if I had never left. He was very happy!”

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She was amazing—super attentive, asked all the right questions, and made sure my pup Groot was well taken care of the entire time. She stayed at my home for house sitting and left everything exactly as I had it, clean and cared for. Most importantly, Groot absolutely loved her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Highly recommend
