“Jackie was great! Right from the meet and greet through to my return, I was confident my dogs were in good hands. My Mercy is very suspicious of new people, but warmed up to Jackie within minutes. I was confident Mercy and Lainie were in good hands. Jackie even took Lainie to playgroup (Mercy would not go, and that was fine). I was amazed at the condition of the dogs and house upon my return as they were immaculate! I would highly recommend Jackie to everyone interested in a dog/house sitter!”

“Haley is hands down, the absolute best, end of story! Our rescue pittie has been with us for about 8 months now and he's come a long way so we decided to see if we could entertain the idea of traveling a bit but know he was in the best care. Haley house sit for us as a trial overnight and our dog immediately took to her calm approach, energy and the care she took while initially meeting him and then as she house sit for us. Her attention to detail, not only to our care guide we put together and her own expertise, but the frequency she communicates, as well as the respect she has for our house and belongings, put us at ease we made the right decision. Can't recommend Haley enough and we are so thankful (and lucky) she is here for Rueben!”

“My dog, Rei is generally skittish around strangers but with Forest she was at home and cuddly! Forest took great care of Rei, took her on jogs while I was away on a trip, and checked in regularly with me which helped me relax during my vacation. He was very kind and polite and followed instructions well. I would highly recommend Forest and will definitely book him again in the future. :)”

“Nicole did an excellent job in our home for an extended stay of 13 days with our 2 dogs. She was great with daily pupdates and pictures-which were greatly appreciated because we missed our babies. She dispensed meds several times a day to our senior German Shepherd and was able to keep our very active, lovable, snuggly -yet sometimes naughty Whippet puppy busy. I knew from the minute I met her that she was a great fit for us and I’d use her every time we need someone to stay or drop in for us!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets since the age of 5, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, lizards, turtles, and fish. Dogs and cats have been a part of my life for most of my years, and today I’m a proud cat mom to two adorable cats: Savannah (9) and Maeve (3). I’ve always loved being around animals and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m attentive to detail, reliable, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. While I plan to welcome a dog into my own family in the near future, I’d love the opportunity to spend time caring for and playing with your pup in the meantime! Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a dependable person to stick to their routine, I’m happy to help and will care for them as if they were my own. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to easily fit pet care into my day. I’m available for drop-ins before 8am, during my lunch hour for midday check-ins, and consistently after 4:30pm once my workday ends. This flexibility allows me to maintain a reliable routine for your cat, whether they need morning feedings, litter box care, playtime, medication, or simply companionship throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is always safety, trust, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away. I follow all instructions exactly as provided, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, medications, and any specific household rules. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and needs so I can interact with them in a way that feels familiar and stress-free. I treat every home with respect and care, making sure doors are securely closed, routines are followed consistently, and your space is left clean and as you left it. I’m mindful of safety at all times—watching for any potential hazards, ensuring pets are secure before leaving, and double-checking everything before I go. Trust is extremely important to me. I understand how personal it is to let someone into your home and care for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I aim to communicate clearly and consistently, giving updates as needed so you always feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I grew up taking full responsibility for my two dogs, handling their daily feeding, walks, playtime, and overall care. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. Friends often trust me to look after their dogs when they need help, and I treat every dog as if it were my own with patience, attention, and lots of care Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available all day during the week as well as on weekends, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day I care for pets with a calm, attentive, and safety-first approach, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I live close to a park, which allows for regular outdoor walks and exercise. I’m very careful during walks and always stay alert to my surroundings to ensure pets are safe and comfortable at all times

About: I have been surrounded by animals for my whole life. Appreciation from animals became important to me and care for them became important too. No task is too much for taking care of my own or someone else's pet(s). I have a routine for how I take care of my own cat (ie. feeding schedules and litter cleaning schedules). My evenings are some of the most important times for caring for pets either through direct care or playing, as this is both for them and for me. I would care for them a lot like I care for my own pet. Feeding, care, and play routines all matter. As long as the dog/cat is willing to participate in play with me (with trust and in their comfort zone) I would engage with them.

This was the first time we ever left our pets with someone other than family. Tatyjana treated my pets as if they were family. They snuggled with her and her family, and they looked like they felt at home. They were well cared for and even posed for pictures. Something I can't get them to do. She definitely eased any concerns we may have had. We will have no problems asking her again. Thank You so much.

We were more than satisfied with our choice of Tiffany for watching our cat Lucky for 3 weeks. We were concerned that Lucky might not accept Tiffany once he realized we were gone. That fear was short lived when she shared a photo of him sleeping on her lap the first day. Lucky is a high maintenance cat because he is an indoor/outdoor cat, so more work for Tiffany was required. We are so glad that she was available for that time slot and agreed to stay in our home. We highly recommend Tiffany.

Daniel took great care of our two large playful dogs. He reached out to schedule a meet and greet after booking to make sure he was a good fit for our dogs and understood our expectations. He was very communicative before and during the house sitting service. He sent photo and video updates and left our home in great condition. Highly recommend his services to any pet owners that are looking for reliable in-home pet care.

Forest and I had an initial meet and greet with my two dogs and an overview of my home since he would be taking care of both for over two weeks. His experience and work/life met my needs for the stay. He is very responsive to texts, sent some pics so I could see my dogs that I missed so much on my trip. I had every confidence that the dogs and my house was taken care of and that is a lot, I don't trust many people to take care of my dogs aside from family. I will book him again for future trips.

Bri was wonderful with our senior dog. As our dog has gotten older, it has become trickier to find someone we trust to leave her with— anxiety inducing for both us and the dog! But we felt great leaving her with Bri and came home to a very happy pup. Bri was very communicative and gave us lots of updates. We look forward to booking with her again!

We couldn't have asked for a better person to watch Dug at the house as we travelled this past weekend. From the meet and greet to the end of stay, Amy was a true gem. She contacted us upon arrival at the house, kept us informed throughout the 2 days with text messages and pictures, and cleaned up the house before leaving. Coming home to a happy dog and a clean house was very much appreciated. I would give Amy a 5+ Star rating if it went higher.

Karen was so wonderful!!!!! Took excellent care of my three cats, dog, and axolotl for a whole week. She kept in touch with me about how they were doing, and even gave me some extra water/food containers for them! When my flight home got delayed, she was willing to stay and take care of the animals for me for an extra day, even though she didn't have to. 10/10 thank you so much, Karen <3
