Hadley is amazing house sitting for our cats and the best communicator with us! Always send pictures and answers all questions promptly. We came home to 2 happy kitties. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my babies were in good hands

Bryant was excellent with my senior dog. He was incredibly experienced in terms of my dog’s specific needs, including diaper changes and being mindful of her dementia traits. He was also very communicative and offered multiple updates throughout the day.

My dog is feisty and doesn’t get along well with nearly anyone, but she loved Sara! Very responsible and communicative in important situations. She stayed at our apartment and left it cleaner than we did! Would highly recommend!

She did an awesome job house sitting Gatsby for a week! She sent us plenty of pictures and updates. He had a blast going on walks with her and playing fetch and tug. He has an irritation on his paw, so she made sure his cone was on when he wasn’t supervised. She fed him his medication with no problems. Highly recommend her to watch your pet if you are away on vacation!!!

About: I've taken care of dogs, guinea pigs, and fish. I myself have a seven year old bichon who I take care of. I can take your fur babies on walks, a personal pet picnic, or even take them to a pet park so they can socialize with other pets. I am currently a full time teacher. So I am available after 2:30 and full time on weekends. To schedule care time, please give me two weeks notice. Thank you! I can take care of your dog in your own home. Of course, safety comes first, please leave me notes so that I will be aware of it.

This is our second time having Kamila pet sit for our dog Luna, and we again had a wonderful experience. Luna was excited and happy to see her, and Kamila once again took wonderful care of her, taking her on nice walks and playing with her at home. She has a sixth sense for animals and gets along with Luna very very well. She also has excellent communication skills with pet people! She always responds to my messages right away and she is positive, on-point and responsible. We consider ourselves so lucky to have found Kamila and will definitely ask her to come back to take care of Luna again. Thanks a million, Kamila! We had never left Luna with a pet sitter before and you have made this an easy and positive experience for us.

About: I’ve had animals since I was born. I love every type of dog/cat/rabbits/guinea pigs/birds. I work from home so I can spend all my time with your fur baby. Have lots of experience with all ages. From young animals to our loving seniors on medications. Worked in the vet field for a few years and pet sitting for over a decade. I currently work from home so I’ll be with your fur babies majority of the time. Timing is flexible for me, as long as I know in advance :) I currently have no pets at the moment so I’ll be boarding one family at a time to ensure a comfortable, stress free environment.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, observant approach and the amount of care I put into making animals feel genuinely safe and comfortable. I’m patient with shy, anxious, high-energy, or senior pets, and I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, and individual personalities. I’m highly reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, so owners can trust that instructions will be followed carefully and their pets will get thoughtful, attentive care rather than just a quick check-in. I’m a freelancer and student, Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m organized, reliable, and good at maintaining consistent feeding, play, medication, and check-in schedules. I also like quieter routines, so spending time caring for cats feels calming and grounding rather than stressful or rushed. I care for pets with a lot of attention, patience, and respect for their routines and boundaries. In a client’s home, I make sure food, water, litter, medications, and general cleanliness are handled carefully while also giving the cat affection, enrichment, or space depending on their personality. I pay close attention to behavior changes and prioritize creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. Always happy to send updates and tidy up!

About: Travis: I grew up with dogs and started caring for them independently at the age of 13. I've frequently dog-sat for friends and provided assistance to elderly dog owners in my neighborhood. As a natural animal lover, I've nurtured dogs from their playful puppy days through to their senior years. I’m dedicated to ensuring every dog feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, no matter their age or needs. Mel: I’ve had pets all throughout my life and have sat both Pups and Cats alike. I’ve always been naturally drawn to pet care. Inspired by the different quirky personalities that come with each one. Rover was a no brainer for Travis and I. We treat every animal we get like we would our very own ♥️ I am a freelance artist and Mel is a wfh tech girly. We love to spend a lot of our free time outside. Because I am a freelancer and she’s wfh we have a lot of flexibility with how we spend our day. It's always nice to have some furry company and get our steps in! We care for pets in our clean, spacious apartment, ensuring they have plenty of room to relax and play.

About: I grew up in Washington DC and I graduated from Wesleyan University in 2024. Since then, I have been preparing for my medical school applications. I am a certified EMT and I recently took my MCAT. Before I wanted to be a doctor I dreamed of being a veterinarian. I wanted to be around animals and care for them so badly that my parents signed me up for Cub Creek Science Camp (an animal camp). After two years as a camper, I got the opportunity to be an Animal Specialist in Training! This came with the responsibility of caring after the animals at the camp and leading activities for the campers. I grew always having dogs around the house and being at animal camp allowed me to learn about caring for all animals (cats, snakes, rodents, birds, etc.). I approach animal care with the utmost responsibility and care. Please note, I am very familiar and comfortable with specialized care. I have two senior dogs and one of them is blind. I am currently in the application process for medical school so I have a lot of flexibility and time in my schedule to look after your pups and kitties! I care for my pets daily and ensure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy. I love animals and approach every pet the same way I do my own. I want to gain an understanding of your pets’ regular routine and replicate that so they feel the most comfortable once I begin caring for them.

I had Jason watch my two cats while I was away for a few days and I am very happy with the service provided. I came back to everything the way I left it and all the cats things clean and organized. I had multiple follow ups and photos sent to me by Jason throughout the service. I would highly recommend and will definitely be booking with Jason moving forward!!
