“Jessica was an amazing cat sitter for my cat, Meelo! She took such great care of him while I was away, stopping by every day to feed him, clean his litter, and make sure he was doing well. I really appreciated the frequent updates and adorable pictures she sent—they gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. It’s clear she genuinely cares for the pets she watches, and I would absolutely book her again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”


“She’s is absolutely the best ! I will definitely be rebooking her again to stay with my boys ! They even loved her which makes me so happy to know I can depend on her to show them that love and affection when I’m not home !thank you again ???”


About: I’ve been caring for pets since childhood— primarily my high energy childhood dog who lived to 18 😇! I’m very used to the time and attention your high energy pet might need and have extensive experience with senior pets who may need special accommodations. I currently have two cats and have been a frequent pet sitter for both cats and dogs. I can’t wait to meet and care for your pets!! I’m a graduate student who can typically accommodate a flexible schedule— including midday walks and drop-ins during the week with notice. Morning and evening walks/drop-ins easy to accommodate any day! I have two cats at home who have a very comfortable life and are frequently checked in on. When I am away I ensure someone is there multiple times a day to keep them company and make sure all is well at home. I am happy to do the same thing for your pets so that you can have the same peace of mind when you are away and know that your pet is cared for!

About: Hello! Thank you for viewing my profile. With a lifelong passion for animals, I enjoy nurturing dogs and caring for their needs. My experience includes senior dogs and behavior observation to ensure your dog feels safe. I am eager to provide a comfortable and caring home for your beloved pup! 🐾 I work from home on the weekdays, so I’m able to remain attentive for your doggo throughout the day. If your dog sticks to a routine just let me know and I will be happy to make them feel at home. I live in a large multi room apartment with a grassy (unfenced) back yard. There are no other pets in the home so my attention will be focused on your fur baby. My situation is good for dogs who prefer a relaxed environment. There is a one floor walk up leading to my home, so I just ask that your dog is comfortable with stairs (or small enough to be carried).

“She was great with our high energy puppy, who usually tends to scare people away! She was very nice and dropped in to play with our puppy during his training sessions. She acted professionally, seemed to love dogs, was super calm and really helped us with the training. She also seemed experienced with dogs as she gave us a couple tips!”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs from many different breeds! I often will dog sit my neighbors, friends, and families dogs while they are on vacation. My work schedule is very flexible and I work three days a week so I am available for potty breaks/ dog walking every 2-4 hours. There’s also plenty of time for play! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a yard with a runner for pups to play! I have two male pembroke welsh corgis that love to play!

“I’ve used Danielle several times and would recommend her to anyone. She spends a lot of time with my dog/at my house, provides frequent updates, and leaves the house in equal or better shape then when I left it. She follows all instructions related to medicines and anything else. I know my dog is in good hands.”


“Gabi was great with our cat and I would not hesitate to hire her to care for Mabel again. She was communicative, flexible, and gave me thorough updates everyday. I felt totally at ease while Mabel was under her care!”


“Shea and Damien are amazing. Very conscientious, communicative, and responsible. I never have any concerns or worries when I know they are caring for our three dogs. Our dogs, in turn, are very comfortable and excited when they see them so I know that they are happy and well cared for when we are away.”

About: When young, I walked neighbors' dogs often, then had a family dog for 6 years. Have cared for both dogs and cats belonging to neighbors and family friends. I am always happy to come by to keep your pet company, indoors and out! My dog, Reed is a larger breed so I feel prepared for any size animal and their energy.

About: I have always been surrounded by dogs most of my life. I have fostered more than 30+ dogs for an NGO. All dogs of all varying sizes and ages were welcome in my home.

I will make sure your dog is taken care of and treated with love and respect. I believe dog's our our greatest gifts and our family. I work in a public school and will be avaiable to watch your dog or board them during weekends and school vacations. During the regular school year I am available to board your dog on weekends. I have a fenced yard and 2 fur babies to keep your dog company. Your dog will have plenty of exercise (as needed). I will make sure your dog has a safe place he/she can use (crate) when they need it. The dogs will have access to plenty of chew toys and bones. I have 2 teenage boys who will also take care of your dog and play with him or her.

“Jen did a fantastic job! She updated us thoroughly, took pictures, and cleaned up when our cat knocked over multiple things. She even left us a Christmas card and some candy. Highly, highly recommend!”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly love caring for them! I have hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, including Goldendoodles, Labradoodles, Bernedoodles, and German Shepherds. I understand the unique personalities and needs of each dog of all ages and make it my mission to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just a cozy cuddle session, I treat every dog like my own. You can trust that your pup will be in warm, reliable, and capable hands! As a teacher, my schedule becomes much more flexible after June 17th when the school year ends. I babysit on Tuesdays, but aside from that, my days are open for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I’m excited to dedicate more of my time this summer to spending quality time with pets and providing dependable, loving care whenever needed. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment for all pets in my care. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and stretch their legs, and there’s a beautiful park just a short walk away for fun walks and exercise. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of affection and supervision, and make sure they feel secure. I also send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

Holly M.
“Holly has taken care of my dog several times. She has a calm demeanor that my dog appreciates but can still match his playful energy. When we were away, she spent time around the house even when our dog just wanted to lounge and sleep to make sure he didn't feel lonely. She also has a lot of experience taking care of multiple pets in the same household. I completely trust her with our dog and highly recommend her service.”


Lauren H.
“Lauren took care of Rita while I was away on a weekend trip. Rita is my senior Chihuahua with diabetes and Cushing's disease, requiring extra medication and closer attention than a typical senior dog. Because of this, I’m very selective about who I trust to watch her. Lauren went above and beyond to meet Rita’s needs. She was timely in administering Rita’s medication, gave her plenty of affection, and took her on many walks. I also received frequent pictures and updates throughout my trip, giving me peace of mind that Rita was in great hands. I fully trust Lauren to watch Rita again and highly recommend her for any pet-sitting needs.”
