“Thank you Christina for coming by to take care of our 5 girls. We loved the photos too. We appreciate you taking the extra time to ensure Jovi ate her dinner. We would definately have you care for them again.”
“The best, hands down. Abby was punctual, caring, and very communicative! Our beagle, Otis, usually has separation anxiety and refuses to eat. Abby was quick-thinking, & even took the time to add some water to his bowl for him to eat - he ate every meal after! His pictures were so cute. We hope she will be available next time, for sure! 10 stars! ⭐️”
“Ava is wonderful! We did a meet and greet and everything went well so I hired her to do a visit with the pups today and they loved her. She communicated well and sent many pictures. I look forward to having her care for my babies again soon”
“I had never utilized this app before so I was very scared at first but Sally made everything seamless. Very happy to have picked her to take care of my babies considering that cats are not the same as dogs. She immediately connected with them and I felt at easy while being away. She sent us pictures and updates every single day and was always quick to respond.”
“Christina is a fantastic dog sitter! She has been such a huge help with my 18 year old Pomeranian Leo. She sends detailed reports about how he's doing when she stops by, gives him his food and medicine and lots of love. You can tell she genuinely loves animals when you meet her!”
“Lauren was so great! We were lucky enough to find Lauren when we really needed someone to do an extended visit with our dog Vini. Throughout her check in visit, we got several updates with pictures and videos of Vini, who immediately felt comfortable with her. She played with Vini and gave him a snack, and made sure his water was refilled. When we got home, Vini was so relaxed and happy, and we know his day was made so much better by having her visit in the middle of the day. We are so grateful and excited for Vini to see her again in the future!”
“Matthew is incredibly professional and did an outstanding job with both of my dogs which provided me a ton of stress relief while traveling and being away from them. He was there always on time, followed instructions perfectly and provided detailed summaries of each visit. Extremely satisfied with his service and will definitely love to book again in the future. Thanks for everything! ☺️”
“Ciara was a great dog sitter! She was so responsive and really took the time to get my pup acclimated to her. I would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Davianna did a really good job pet sitting my 2 kitties. She kept them engaged and active and even brought her own toys to help stimulate them.”
About: I've had a range of Great Danes, Boxers, Pitties, and other dogs since I was 10. I have cared for senior, terminally ill, and puppies over the years. I work early mornings Monday through Saturday until about 10 am, so anything about lunch time until 10 pm is all available time for play, food, or cuddles. Depending on the length, I will start a routine of bathroom, food, and play based on the dog's personality. If time permits or requested, a walk will help with overly excited dogs. I will have poop bags and other accessories to help for entertainment or servicing.
“Kristina is my go-to pet sitter and she never disappoints. She is not only good with animals but a wonderful individual. Very sweet and high energy, she's a joy to work with and I don't trust my kitten with anyone else now. She was on time and stayed even later when we needed it.”
“Marissa was absolutely wonderful! My pup recently went blind and she was so caring and patient with him. You can just tell from talking to her that the safety and care of your pup will be her #1 priority. I would definitely book her again.”
About: I’ve had a deep love for animals from a young age, starting with my first dog, whom I found abandoned by a dumpster when I was just 7 years old. This early experience ignited my passion for pet care. I especially enjoy spending time teaching my pets new tricks, finding it incredibly fun and rewarding to see them learn and thrive. My hands-on experience includes training pets, providing compassionate care, and addressing their unique needs. I’m committed to delivering the same level of love and enthusiasm to your furry friends as I would to my own. As an active-duty US sailor, my weekdays are occupied with my military duties, but I am available to care for your pets on weekends and after 7 PM on weekdays. I’m committed to providing flexible and reliable pet care around my schedule, ensuring your pets receive the attention they need when you’re away. I'm unable to host dogs at my home, but I’m available to walk, care for them in your home and, let them out as needed.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life—and my heart. I’ve cared for all kinds of breeds, from large energetic pitbulls, to lovely fluffy Goldens, and down to teeny tiny Pomeranians, and everything in between. My calm, genuine, compassionate, and loving nature helps me bond quickly with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My first golden retriever, Molly, once saved my life during two incidents: one with a childhood pool one with a concrete lampshade. Ever since then, I’ve felt a deep sense of purpose and appreciation for our dogs and with the same big smiles, love, and loyalty they give us. As a dog walker, I’m attentive, patient, and tailor each walk to your pup’s needs—whether it’s a high-energy adventure or a relaxed stroll. As a house sitter, I’m clean, respectful, and committed to making your dog feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Your dog will be treated with the same love and adoration that you have for them as a part of the family—because that’s exactly what my dogs are to me. I have a very flexible schedule, especially during all weekdays and most weekends. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks, drop-ins, or house sitting with minimal notice. Since I don’t work a traditional 9–5 job, I can easily accommodate last-minute bookings and adjust to your dog’s specific routine. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or multiple hours of daytime care, I’m here when you need me. Safety and trust are at the heart of everything I do—both for my own dogs and the ones I care for. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort level so they feel secure and understood from the start. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, giving them space to warm up, or providing extra cuddles and reassurance, I always provide compassionate care toward your fur baby. I use positive reinforcement, calm energy, and clear communication to build trust with every pup. I’m also careful with leash handling, home security, and feeding routines to ensure your dog is not only happy, has a full tummy, but always feels safe and secure in your home or on a walk. I treat every dog like my own—and every home with the same respect I’d expect for mine.
“Ashley you are amazing! Thank you so much taking care of my baby while I was out of town. My fur baby absolutely loved her. We will be using her again in the future.”
“Jessie has been so great and helpful to us this week! She is on time and very good about keeping me update on the dogs activities. Will definitely be rebooking. We love her.”
“Linwood did an excellent job looking after Leon. Always taking extra time to ensure Leon had adequate play time. I appreciated the follow ups during my break.”
“I couldn't ask for a better dog sitter! She takes the time to truly understand my neurotic pup’s quirks, giving him all the love, cuddles, and patience he needs while keeping me updated with tons of adorable pictures. Knowing he’s in such caring and capable hands gives me complete peace of mind every time I’m away!”
About: I have been the go-to pet sitter in my neighborhood since middle school. Now I can drive to a broad range of pets, and apply my experience to keep more furry friends safe. I'm finishing up my senior year of high-school, and plan to work part time this summer. So, I have plenty of time to pet sit! I am comfortable with dogs of any kind, and have experience with puppies and seniors. The safety and needs of the pet are my top priority, but I also know how to play and keep them entertained!
About: My AAS degree is in veterinary technology. I enjoy all animals and they tend to love me back. I was raised with dogs and puppies I have 2 active pups at home that we as a household keep walked, cleaned and healthy on a daily basis. I work full time as well I think the most important is to follow the owners wants; then build a good lasting bond with both the owner and the pet/pets. I like to be cleanly and leave a home cleaner than when I “found” it

Luiz F.
“As Luiz’s wife, I can honestly say that animals have always been drawn to him and he absolutely loves them back just as much. He has a natural way with pets that’s hard to explain, but beautiful to watch. We have two dogs at home: Joey, our energetic 7 year old Jack Russell, and Riley, our sweet little Shih Tzu. Luiz has always been the one to train Joey he’s taught him to sit, stay, roll over, high five, and even how to do a hand stand! It takes patience and consistency, and Luiz has plenty of both. But beyond the tricks, it’s his calm presence and genuine love for animals that makes him special. Riley, who’s very gentle and attached to people she trusts, follows Luiz around everywhere. He knows how to make pets feel safe, and he treats them like part of the family. If someone is looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced person to care for their pet, Luiz is truly the one. I’d trust him with any dog, big or small. — Jessica F.”

Ingrid B.
“I can vouch for Ingrid. She is our cat sitter and has taken care of them several times, the most recent while we were away for a few weeks. She is extremely responsible, follows instructions and is very caring with our cats. One of our 3 cats is very nervous and shies away from anyone but us, but he lets Ingrid feed him and interact with him. Ingrid is good about keeping us informed while we are away. She texts and sends photos which helps us to feel more comfortable leaving our cats. I highly recommend Ingrid to take care of your beloved pets.”
