Lucy was wonderful! She followed all of our instructions and kept us updated throughout the day with photos and videos so we knew how our dog was fairing. She was very attentive to our dog and really got to know him. He was safe and happy with her all day. I can tell she really loves dogs and she knew how to handle his needs.

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Jeffrey while we visited New York. She was warm, attentive, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip. Jeffrey was clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to watch their pup!

She even learned how to administer my asthmatic cat’s inhaler and made sure they had time to play every day.

Grace is an incredible sitter! She exceeded expectations in her quality of care and attention to my pups, Levi & Jas. She even took extra time to train Levi’s reactivity during walks and had breakthroughs in something I’ve been working months on! I felt very confident and at ease that my babies were in good hands while I was away. Grace also sent daily photo updates which I loved to see! My pups were so happy after their weekend with Grace. She is honestly the best sitter I have had! Highly recommend her to any pet parent.

Ammon put our holiday travel concerns at ease! Our cat has some separation anxiety so we have to have someone stay with him when we leave for more than a day or two. She came over for a meet and greet as soon as we booked the stay. Right away we could just tell that our cat liked her! During the stay at our home Ammon was very communicative, sent updates each day, and everything went very well. Our cat usually takes a few days to warm up to people and within the first few hours she already had him on the couch with her snuggling! She also took great care of our apartment. Everything was very clean and left just as we had it. Thank you Ammon!

Luana is truly exceptional! She completely alleviated my anxiety about dog-sitting on Rover (after my last experience), providing outstanding care for Biscotti. Her proactive communication was fantastic, and it was clear Biscotti was comfortable and happy, as he warmed to her right away. Beyond her excellent care, she also kept my apartment neat and tidy, and in a truly thoughtful gesture, even left me some delicious soup she had mentioned. I highly recommend Luana and look forward to booking with her again.

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for cats and dogs — from daily walks to overnight stays — I bring reliability, warmth, and a genuine love for animals to every visit. As a pet parent myself to a beloved cat, I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. My background as a nanny has also given me a special touch for following routines and providing gentle, attentive care. Whether your pet needs a playful stroll, cozy company, or just a dependable friend while you’re away, I’m here to help keep them happy and safe. Pet care is a regular part of my day. As a cat owner, I already have daily routines built around feeding, cleaning, and spending time with animals. Walking dogs or checking in on other pets fits naturally into my schedule, and my background as a nanny means I’m used to planning days around specific needs and routines. This helps ensure each pet gets consistent, attentive care without disrupting their comfort or routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible. I follow instructions carefully for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I respect the home by keeping things tidy, cleaning up after the pets (and myself), and making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their own space. My goal is to minimize stress for the pet by providing calm, reliable care in an environment they know well.

Tenzin was the best house-sitter I could’ve asked for! She took great care of my kitties, administering medicine three times a day for one of them. She played with them tons and sent frequent updates that showed them happily eating, playing, and napping. She was also kind enough to wash the bedding and towels, vacuum, and take out the trash before she left. Tenzin will be my first choice to care for my babies anytime I travel in the future.

Scott did an amazing job taking care of our sweet Tuna for the weekend. Was super communicative, sent lots of great photos and was very accommodating with our schedule. Will definitely use him again!

Anahita took such beautiful care of my two cats while I was on vacation. She gave updates, was respectful of my home and gave my cats so much attention and love. She jumped in last minute when my previous sitter cancelled half way through out of no where, and took away all my stress and worry. Would 100% recommend!!!

Mabel loves when we go out of town because she has the best time with George—the pictures he sends are always of the happiest, tiredest dog who has been living her best life with her pal. Obviously super responsive, great communicator, supremely responsible—can’t recommend highly enough!

Meggie took great care of our dog, Big!! She was communicative, with witty updates and pictures, throughout the stay! I can tell our dog was well taken care of and relaxed with her. Will definitely keep Meggie in mind for future visits😊

Christine recently dog-sat my pup, Bolaño, for a full week, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Bolaño is the friendliest dog anyone has ever met—he absolutely loves people—so it’s important to me that he’s with someone who embraces that energy. Christine immediately connected with him and made sure he felt loved, engaged, and comfortable from the start. Even before the stay began, Christine was proactive in communicating what would be necessary to care for Bolano. She asked thoughtful questions, made sure she had all the details she needed, and gave me full confidence that he’d be in good hands. Throughout the week, she was also quick to respond whenever I reached out. When I returned, Bolano was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. It was obvious he’d been well cared for. I recommend Christine to anyone looking for a warm, reliable, and communicative dog sitter. She treated Bolano like one of her own, and I’d gladly work with her again

Rio was great! She’s super responsive, sent pictures of Tiger every day, and left our apartment clean when we got back from our two week trip. Would highly recommend!

This was my first time having someone stay over at my house with my dog while I was out of town, and Neeha did an incredible job. My dog caught a cold right before I left so naturally I was worried, but Neeha was super communicative with me the entire time, giving me updates on his symptoms, his energy level, and his appetite. It was reassuring to know that he was in good hands while I was out of town and I am very grateful to have had that peace of mind!
