“I can't say enough good things about Kara! She went above and beyond while taking care of my dog, Luna, and my two cats. Not only did she shower them with attention and make sure all their needs were met, but she also took the initiative to clean up very well after herself and the pets, and even gave Luna a bath! I came home to a spotless house and a happy, clean dog. I received multiple pictures and videos every day with clear communication. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. I will be rebooking, and so far she’s the only one in the area i have thought that about. Loved!”
“Maya was a fantastic sitter for my dog. She spent multiple nights over and had no problems! She constantly sent pictures and updates. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. Thank you so much again!”
About: Growing up in California with close friends having dogs and cats taught me early on, that pets are family. Over the past five years, I've also helped care for a high-energy Doberman, giving me hands-on experience with both gentle companions and active, intelligent breeds. I understand the importance of trust, consistency, exercise, and affection in helping pets feel safe and happy. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or extended care, I'll treat your dog with the same love, attention, and reliability I'd want for my own. I have a flexible schedule and am available seven days a week, including weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. Whether you need regular walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or last-minute assistance, I strive to accommodate your pet care needs. I understand that schedules can change unexpectedly, and I pride myself on being dependable, responsive, and committed to providing consistent, loving care whenever your pets need it. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, administer medications if needed, and ensure pets receive appropriate exercise, playtime, and attention. I also keep the home tidy, provide regular updates and photos, and remain attentive to any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so both pets and owners have peace of mind while they're away.
“It’s nice to go away and not have to worry about your pets .Its the third time I’ve used Mary Ann and she is punctual and keeps in touch with me .My house is always in perfect order when I come home 🙂”
About: I have loved all pets since I was little when my grandpa was a vet. I’ve always had dogs growing up and absolutely love taking care of all of them and I’m always looking for a new furry friend I’m currently working part-time and I always have extra time just laying around so I wanted to give myself a little something to do and something that I enjoy! I have 2 dogs of my own and they have a massive yard to run in and absolutely love going on walks that I take them on everyday and I would do the same and care for your pets like they are my own.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for over then years and have been providing care for dogs and cats for the past two years. I’m friendly, attentive, and love staying active so If your pet needs high-energy walks or outdoor adventures, we’ll have a great time together. I also offer last minute accommodations as I work 2 minutes away and can check in on your pets at anytime! Part time on the weekdays but can easily check in on pets. Full day availability Friday through Sundays. I can accommodate late pick ups or next days. I live in an apartment so ideally you’re pet is small and needs loving tender care in a small space. Ready and willing to be able to give multiple walks. Potty training is not required.
“Catherine is amazing. Took great care of our home and 3 Alaskan Malamutes for a weekend. Very flexible with our plans and attentive to all of our dogs’ needs, including medical/health needs. Will definitely continue to work with her!”
About: I’ve had all kinds of peta all my 57 years of life’ and promise to treat them with love and care like they were my own. I am taking care of animals full time with the exception of an occasional housekeeping client here and there. I can be available for your babies whenever you need me. I prefer to watch your babies in their own home so they feel most comfortable with their smells and toys. I believe this is far less stressful for them.
“Jenniffer was amazing with our little Frenchie!!! She arrived early, stayed late, and helped with feeding and medication. Her enthusiasm and communication are exceptional! We can't say enough kind words and appreciation for her.”
About: I’ve been a trusted sitter with TrustedHousesitters since January 2025, completing over 50 sits with consistent 5-star reviews. I’m known for being reliable, resourceful, and genuinely caring—treating every pet and home with the same love and respect I would my own. I am also known for keeping spaces spotless, so you can return to a happy pet and a clean, peaceful home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely, allowing me to be present and attentive throughout the day—handling feedings, walks, playtime, and companionship with consistency and care. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment by following your pet’s routine closely and respecting your home as if it were my own. I keep spaces clean, secure, and stress-free, while giving your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and gentle care. My goal is for you to have peace of mind and for your pets to feel at ease in their own environment.
“Shannon is a godsend. She has been SO AMAZING with my pup. Not only did he take to her quickly, but she is thorough and communicative and kept me constantly updated throughout the stay. I’m so happy I found her and will be booking again for sure!!”
About: I have been a kennel technician and an animal care specialist at animal control. I have numerous experience with cats and dogs. I have helped delivered puppies, took care of all animals for extended periods and have overnight dog sat for more than 2 weeks at a time. I am currently working but my hours are flexible and i am in nursing school full time so i am available as much as possible. I can fit your pet into my routine with no problem! I have a fenced yard and a dog at home. I will care for the animals in the clients home but not my own due to my dog not being so well with animals since he was abused very heavily before he came to me. Now he’s a spoiled baby!! I will follow a schedule with no problem and reassure my client with constant communication and understanding that their animal is being 100% loved and cared for.
“Nothing brings me more nerves than days away from my pup, my separation anxiety is far worse. Caroline did an amazing job with Thelo! Regular updates on his walks, photos, and giving him the affection he always needs. Would highly recommend her for a house-sitting stay to take care of your beloved pet”

“Sandy is great with my 16yr very demanding girl 🐶 It was so nice to not have to worry about a thing while I was away and come back to a clean house and happy dog”
“From the second the dogs met Julia they were HOOKED and I just knew I was leaving them in the most loving caring and capable hands. She sent daily updates and I was FLOORED to come home and see all my plants were still alive too! (Only because they’re really finicky and I have a hard enough time keeping them alive and thriving!) and coming home after a long week to see that my house is as comfy and cozy as I need it to be after traveling all day was such a relief. If she’s available BOOK HER you’ll feel so lucky you did!!”
About: My young adult canine was a male 110lb Doberman Pinscher who I was blessed to have for 10 and 1/2 years. I had a male golden doodle after that and now I have two toy poodles (mother and daughter) and my parents have the father and one of the sons from her litter. I have trained all the dogs I’ve ever owned from potty training the new litter, to off leash commands and walks with my golden doodle and Doberman. From my years of being a veterinary technician I have experience with senior dog and cat care as well. I currently work remotely and am part-time. I am a social media marketing manager and a journalist. I work Mondays, Wednesdays, every other Friday and Sundays and would be available for walks and able to feed your pets every day of the week or weekend. I follow the rules and guidelines that are given to me by the owners. I am familiar with obedience training, crate training, and leash training especially in younger pups.

Julia did a great job caring for our dog and cat and our home. She even extended her stay one extra day when we asked her to. All of our instructions were followed and the animals were happy. We would certainly hire her again and recommend her to others. Thanks, Julia.!!!
Nicole was absolutely exceptional. From start to finish, she was professional, communicative, attentive, and genuinely caring. It was immediately clear how much she truly loves animals, and our dog absolutely adored her. While we were away, Nicole kept us updated regularly and gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing our dog was in such great hands. She treated him like her own, and we could tell he was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for the entire time. Finding someone you fully trust with your dog is not easy, and Nicole exceeded every expectation we had. She is dependable, thoughtful, kind, and clearly takes great pride in the care she provides. We would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely wonderful sitter. Thank you again, Nicole, for taking such amazing care of our dog. We are incredibly grateful and look forward to booking with you again soon.
Elizabeth was amazing with Benny and Fiyero. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly attentive, kept us updated the whole time, and made us feel so comfortable being away from them. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs and takes the responsibility seriously. Both of our pups were happy and relaxed when we got back, which says everything. We’d absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone kind, dependable, and great with dogs.
This is Susha's second time acting as Ernie's groomer lol. At least, that's what he says. The boy loves getting brushed (and fed and given treats), and Susha does all that like a pro. Additionally, the house was spotless when I returned. Her communications are great, and I highly recommend Susha as a petsitter. Except, of course, when I'm out of town.
This was our first time using Rover, and Cheryl was our pet sitter for our Christmas vacation getaway. We couldn't have asked for a better person to take care of our "babies". She's a lovely woman, great with animals (we have both a dog & cat) and even our neighbors who ran into her regularly said she was wonderful. Very glad we found her and would never hesitate to hire her again in the future. I loved the photos she sent regularly to keep us in the loop, and the house looked great when we got home. 5 star all the way!!
Jessica was awesome with our boys (1 puppy and 1 senior)! She gave great updates and really made sure they were happy and cared for. You can tell she genuinely loves animals. It was such a comfort knowing they were in good hands when I’m not home. Highly recommend!
Nicholas is a wonderful person and did a great job housesitting our English Bulldog Red! He sent pictures and messages to keep us up to date, which was appreciated since our dog had is older. The house was completely clean when we got home, just how we left and it was an excellent experience working with Nicholas!!
