“Maddie is a wonderful pup / house sitter. She has completed 2 in-home stays for us over holiday weekends and taken excellent care of our 2 huskies. She was proactive with communication before each stay to get keys and instructions. During the stay she sent daily updates and pictures. We were able to relax on vacation knowing our pups were happy and cared for. Thank you Maddie!”
“Aspen was fantastic with the animals, frequent check-ins and so respectful of our home. We'd be delighted to have Aspen back for a future trip”
“Olesja took care of our pups Avery and Atlas over the weekend and we had an outstanding experience! She went above and beyond, taking fantastic care of Atlas and Avery. They absolutely loved their long walks and the personal attention they received. Our home was spotless when we returned, even cleaner than when we left. Her regular photo and video updates kept us connected and reassured throughout the entire weekend. Highly recommend her for ultimate peace of mind and top-notch pet care!”
“Alyssa was great staying with my two kitties overnight at my house for a couple of nights while I was traveling. She did a drop in to meet them first which was so appreciated, always communicated really well (and got back to me really fast), sent pictures (which I LOVE!), and clearly took care of them and left my house exactly as she found it! I would definitely recommend Alyssa!”
“Julianna was great!! My dog is normally shy with strangers but took to Julianna so quickly & seemed really comfortable. Julianna provided frequent updates and was very flexible as my flights got delayed. Would recommend!”
“Christabel was great with my cats, and she was very communicative during my trip. I appreciated her ability to take my booking, even though it was last minute. I will definitely keep her in mind for future trips!”
“Breon was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs! We read every review and they could not be more accurate; Breon has a warm, welcoming presence and she clearly loves what she does. Our dogs immediately took to her when we first met so we knew she would be a great fit. Her communication was excellent, which helped us feel so comfortable with her caring for the dogs. She sent such precious pictures during the walks and during their time hanging out together in the evenings. We also so appreciate Breon’s thoughtfulness in keeping our home tidy, such a nice touch that really helps you feel relaxed when you return home. We recommend her highly and will absolutely be having her stay with our pups in the future! Thank you Breon!!”
“Jessica was awesome and took really good care of our dog Vito and let us know about anything she had questions about with him. We feel very confident in having her care for our buddy!”
“Bryn was such a joy to have dog sitting our “only child”, our 4-year-old yorkie. Despite being anxious dog owners leaving him with a sitter for the first time, she was calm and communicative. She gave our dog, Byron, many walks and cuddles and sent a picture a day to give us our fix! :) She very kindly dealt with a broken dishwasher and the maintenance man, and also fetched our mail and packages while we were away. We highly recommend her as a sitter. Thank you, Bryn! We will be reaching out again in the future!!”
“Grace was amazing once again with my relatively incontinent elderly toy poodle, who requires daily meds, and my cat. She stayed at our home and kept in great communication, sending daily pictures. When we returned from our trip, the house was squeaky clean and the animals were happy. We will definitely continue booking with Grace!”
“Kirsten was a fantastic sitter! We went on our honeymoon and didn’t have to worry about a thing! Our dogs can be high maintenance and she was completely competent in handling them. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the week. She was detail oriented and kind. We came home to happy pups and the cutest sketch she made of our boys! Definitely will use her again in the future!”
“Ishmell is the bomb - took great care of my big troublemaker and gave her a nice little vacation of her own. Absolutely trustworthy and accommodating!”
“Grace was fantastic! She arrived right on time and kept me updated withl texts and photos throughout the stay. When I got home, my dog was in great spirits and clearly well cared for. I’d absolutely recommend Grace to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
About: Lover of animals. Cat mom Of 3. I have always been around dogs. No issues with cleaning up after, play time, dog walks and oral medication. Currently unemployed and very open availability. Outside of some typical personal things weekly a lot of flexibility to care for your pet/pets! No issues with weekends Living in 2nd floor of a duplex so a bit difficult for cats to escape! I treat any pet like they are my own and get the attention they need
About: I have experience in house-sitting and doing daily check-ins with dogs and my friends, family and coworkers have trusted me to take care of their pets! I have experience caring for multiple dogs at once. From one day to an extended period of dog sitting I’ve got you covered. 🤩 As of 5/21/2025 I will available to watch your pets full-time ☺️ Weekdays or weekends I can provide my pet care services to you and yours! I will not be providing pet care in my own apartment as I have a pet of my own - however, I am very comfortable either staying with your pet if they need the company or simply popping in for walks and food if they’d rather have some alone time. Trust and comfort for your pet is very important to me!
“Katy stayed in our home and watch our dog Torry for ten days when we went on vacation. Our home and our precious puppy could not have been in better hands. Katy took great care of Torry. She walked her, played with her and even bathed her. Torry hardly knew we were gone. Yikes!! We recommend Katy to anyone needing a caring pet sitter.”

18. Allison D.
“Allie is my first choice to take care of my pets! She on many occasions has watched my two dogs and cat. I entrusted her to take care of my animals while on longer travel nurse assignments and she makes up for the love to my animals when I cannot be there! She goes above and beyond. She is compassionate, responsible and friendly. She would be an extraordinary animal sitter.”
19. Sarah W.
“Sarah is my best friend and is always willing and happy to watch over my cat, Raven, whenever I am out of town. Even though she lives about 45 minutes away from me, she is the first to offer to go visit and make sure she has everything she needs until I get home, as well as spending a little extra time playing with her and giving her lots of attention. Sarah also sends me tons of pictures so I don't miss Raven too much while I'm away! I trust her more than anyone else to come to my home and make sure my favorite kitty is well cared for when I am gone for more than a day or two.”
