“Kristin is top notch in all aspects of caring for our beloved dog, Henry. Always in touch with updates and photos and cares a lot. Thank you, Kristin! We are so thankful for you.”

“Tamara was easy to communicate with and my dogs seemed happy and well taken care of. She was flexible and I could tell she was thinking about what would be best for my pups. I will definitely book again!”

“Olivia is amazing! She made sure my cat got plenty of pets & attention when checking in & also went the extra mile to check on my hedgehog as well. We all loved her!”

“She was great! Super responsive and I know my sweet babies were in good care. She took pictures and left thorough feedback each day, which is appreciated when you’re away from home.”

“Caitlin was extremely flexible and reliable when we went on vacation to Europe. It felt really reassuring knowing how well our girl was taken care of while we were gone. I highly recommend her!”

“Veronica was great with our dog Ares. She responded quickly to all messages and sent me pictures with each visit. She was very accommodating with my last minute changes I had to make to the drop-in schedule and is very personable.”

“Taylor is awesome! She walked our dog Carson daily for a couple months and she was an absolute lifesaver. Her flexibility and reliability was greatly appreciated. Carson is not the easiest dog to walk and she did a great job. We would highly recommend her!!!”

“Emily was amazing with my cat. My cat was comfortable with her from day one - which made me feel much more secure knowing that he was in good hands while I was away on my trip.”

“For peace of mind, you should book with Kay. Anyone can take care of your dog when things go well. Kay was amazing when my dog accidentally cut herself. She immediately took care of everything, stayed with my dog until I could get there and kept me informed. Don't go with someone who loves dogs, trust a dog sitter who can care for your dog if an emergency arises.”

About: I have years of experience caring for my own cats and dogs, along with plenty of pets belonging to friends and neighbors. I love meeting new furry friends and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. 🫶🏼 I currently work full time and would love to dedicate some free time to caring for others pets. I feel that spending time with animals is a great way to connect with the community. My goal is to make sure that your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy in my care. In addition it is important that your space and that of your pets is respected at all times.
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for over 15 years. Animal breeds ranging from Labradors, boxers and mix breeds. I currently have a rescue dog, and a kitty from birth. I am currently working full time and available almost every weekend. I'd be available to care for your animals after 3:30pm daily and anytime on the weekend. I have a bark park just around the corner and a happy jolly dog that would love to keep your fur baby company. I have a nice large crate, should your dog need to be crated for any reason.
“Denise is fabulous! She has been doing drop in visits for several weeks while my new puppy adjusts to his new home and routines. I am a teacher so she has been a god send. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone who be caring and attentive. She goes above and beyond with pictures, videos, and more (including changing our potty pads in my puppy’s pen and cleaning up his messes). Cannot recommend highly enough!”

“We are very satisfied with Esther-Elizabeth´s care for our cat, Dalek. We hope she will be available next time we need someone to care for or little friend. That you Esther.”

About: Hi, I’m Cortney! I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for and walking my own pups. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I pride myself on being patient, dependable, and in tune with each dog’s unique personality. Whether your pup’s into fast-paced walks, leisurely sniffing around the block, or just soaking up some extra love, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Your dog’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities and I treat every dog like my own! I’m currently a stay at home mom looking to take care of furry friends during the weekdays and weekends. I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. I have a small fenced in backyard that’s suitable for a quick trip outside. Our neighborhood is full of trails and sidewalks where your pet will be walked several times per day (depending on their needs).

Kerry was amazing!. Highly recommend her and will use her for all of our bookings. She is a caring and professional sitter. She worked closely with us before the visit including an at home visit to meet Louie. Louie loved her, appreciating all of her massages and playtime. She gave us complete and timely text updates. We knew our fur baby was well taken care of!

Erica took wonderful care of our 3 cats while we were away for 3 days. She was reliable, communicative, and made sure everything stayed clean and comfortable for them. We really appreciated the updates and especially the pictures and knowing our pets were in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy cat sitter!

I cannot express enough gratitude for the care provided by Nazira, our wonderful cat sitter. From the very first day, Nazira treated Grendel with warmth and careful attention, ensuring he felt safe and cherished. Her dedication to his well-being was evident in every detail—from the lovingly prepared meals to the playful moments that kept him entertained and relaxed. Nazira's remarkable consideration shines in how she kept me updated with regular photos and thoughtful messages. Every update reassured me that Grendel was thriving in an environment of care and affection. She balanced playtime with peaceful moments of rest, treating Grendel not just as a pet but as her cherished friend. I wholeheartedly recommend Nazira to anyone needing a compassionate, reliable, thoughtful cat sitter. With Nazira, you can have complete peace of mind knowing that your furry friend receives the best care.

Molly did an awesome job in taking care of my cat, Raju like her own. From regular updates and photos to careful attention to my cat's routine - Molly had done exactly what I had asked for. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Raju is in safe hands. I will recommend Molly who is looking for a pet-sitter.
