“Trisha was a great sitter for our golden retriever. She did everything that was asked of her and went over and beyond our expectations. Communication was great though out are whole trip.”

About: I have always taken care for friends family and neighbors since a child. All animals are good even reptiles. Love all animals.Want to earn extra income. Empty nester with only one cat at home.Right now I sit for my grand dogs when my adult kids go out of town.m My son has 2 medium mixed dogs and my daughter has an Aussie doodle. I live with elderly Mom and work from home 9 to 5. I have extra time on my hands . My kids are grown and pets have aged out. Can work nights weekends and middle of day breaks if close enough. I can come for visits or stay over as I have someone at my house for my cat. I can give weekday morning noon and evening visits and open all weekends.

“Michaela was great with our gentle giants. They typically are timid and bark at new people for a while after entering the home, but when she came in, they took so quickly to her and my most fearful and timid dog did not bark at her nonstop. He actually went up to her quicker than any other dog sitter previously. Michaela sent updates throughout the visit and kept me up to date. The dogs really seemed to like her which was such a blessing. Having 3 large dogs can be intimidating, but Michaela was at ease and did a wonderful job. I definitely would recommend her and will use her again in the future.”

“Great communication and she stayed at the house until we arrived home to give a full verbal report. She asked thoughtful questions and our puppies seemed to be happy when we got back. Would definitely recommend Ritaj!”

“Brooke was absolutely wonderful!!! Leaving our 7-year-old Japanese Akita with someone new was a big decision for us, but Brooke exceeded all of our expectations. She took the time to build trust with Eoshi, and it was clear from her updates that she genuinely cared about his well-being. When we returned home, Eoshi was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. He ate well, enjoyed plenty of walks, and seemed completely comfortable with Brooke. We were especially happy to see that they developed such a great bond while we were away. Brooke also took exceptional care of our home. Everything was spotless when we returned, and she even started a load of laundry with the bed linens before leaving, which was such a thoughtful gesture. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely trust Brooke with Eoshi again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Erica is great and we highly recommend her. When first booking with her we did a meet and greet and explained the special handling Max our cranky 15 yr old ankle biter required along with our two other dogs and tortoises. She went out of her way to make several more visits to get Max accustomed to her, which wasn’t easy but she didn’t give up. She sent videos and pictures daily to keep us up on how things were going. I think the dogs enjoyed their time with her and she even managed to tame the beast in cranky Max. She also left the house straighten up, dishes washed and everything in order which is nice to find when you return home from a trip. She will certainly be our pet sitter of choice moving forward.”

“Rae did a great job with our little girl. She spent lots of time with her and got to know her well. She sent us photo and video updates daily. We will use her again.”

Carra R.

“Jackie was great with our fur baby. She sent us pictures every day we were away. I will definitely have her again”

Tonya G.

“Gretchen was great. All animals happy and fed. She was very responsive and took great care of our 2 pets. Highly recommend Gretchen and will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve cared for energetic puppies and senior pets, handling feeding, walks, routines, basic training, playtime, and extra patience while learning each pet’s unique personality. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide dependable pet care, walks, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the week and on weekends. I treat every pet and home with the utmost respect and genuine care. I carefully follow your instructions, lovingly supervise your pets, keep their routines consistent, and always keep you updated with their well-being.

About: My experience caring for animals began long before I started pet sitting professionally. I grew up on a farm surrounded by cows, chickens, goats, horses, dogs, and cats. From an early age, I was responsible for daily animal care, including early-morning feedings, cleaning animal living areas, administering medications, and ensuring every animal was healthy, comfortable, and well cared for. That upbringing gave me a strong foundation in animal care, responsibility, patience, and understanding the unique needs of different animals. Throughout my adult life, I have continued to be the person friends, family, and others trust to care for their pets and homes while they travel. In 2019, I began using TrustedHousesitters, expanding my experience across the United States and internationally. I have cared for a wide variety of pets and households, including multiple dogs and cats at once, and can provide reviews from previous families upon request. What truly sets me apart is the breadth of my hands-on experience and my ability to adapt to each animal’s individual needs. I have cared for puppies, senior pets, animals requiring specialized medications, and pets with unique behavioral needs. My experience includes administering oral medications and injections, coordinating veterinary appointments, supporting recovery and special-care routines, and maintaining consistent feeding, exercise, and daily schedules. I also have experience with dog training fundamentals, including leash training and reinforcing commands such as sit, stay, wait, and heel. I am comfortable working with reactive dogs, leash sensitivity, excessive barking, and challenging walking behaviors. I understand the importance of patience, positive redirection, awareness of surroundings, and prioritizing safety when caring for animals with behavioral challenges. Beyond pet care, I provide attentive, full-service home care. Because I work remotely, I can establish my workstation in your home and remain available throughout the day, providing consistent companionship and supervision. I can manage mail and packages, maintain a clean and organized home, coordinate with contractors when needed, and communicate updates so you always know how things are going. I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pets requires a great deal of trust. I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully coordinate arrivals and departures, learn each pet’s routines and care instructions, and make sure their needs are met throughout my stay. I also take pride in leaving every home clean, organized, and welcoming for its owners’ return. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind. With a lifetime of animal experience, years of professional house and pet sitting, and a genuine commitment to attentive, individualized care, I bring the preparation, flexibility, and reliability needed to care for your pets and home as if they were my own.

About: Hi, I’m Melissa – A Lifelong Animal Lover with a Personal Touch Growing up with animals taught me early on how to understand and care for pets with love, patience, and respect. Over the years, I’ve rescued, trained, and nurtured countless fur babies. I treat your pets like family because that’s what they deserve. We specialize in providing one on one attention by only hosting one dog at a time (or siblings from the same home), so your pet gets a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and happy. We believe in positive reinforcement, mental stimulation, and physical activity especially with the beach nearby for fun walks and playtime. I also bake healthy homemade treats and often add a little pet spa love for extra pampering. Your pet may even learn a new trick or two! You can get a feel for who we are by checking out our journey on TikTok at #lolasdoggycare We’re here to love and care for your fur baby just like you would maybe even a little extra. I have a small business from home, so the flexibility is there. I make pet products as well as homemade products so I set my own hours. I treat all the fur babies as if they were my own child or pet. I follow their schedule and give them my undivided attention and do lots of playing! We go get our walks or smelly’s. 🐶

“Zai was the best dog/house sitter! She took care of our pups and they adored her! Will definitely be booking again for our next time away from home!”

“Charles took our booking last minute as we had exhausted our options for care for our older reactive pup, he knew what he was doing when it came to the meeting and knew how to handle Avi, Avi loved Charles, and Charles paid close attention to our little needy situation with Avi and executed everything perfectly, will definately book again as im afraid Avi will wonder what happened to his new friend 😁”

About: I’ve spent my whole life around pets, caring for them with love and dedication. After my own dog, Techa, passed away, I realized I still have so much love to give, even if I’m not quite ready to adopt again. That became part of my own journey with pets, and it’s why I opened my home to welcome and care for other families’ dogs. I don’t just stay home with them, I take them out, observe them closely, and tune into what they need and what makes them feel happy and safe. I have a natural intuition with dogs and pay close attention to their behavior and energy so they feel understood and comfortable. I also love sending lots of photos and videos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away, just like I would want for my own dog. . Be prepared for some cute photo bombing! Because I work remotely, your dog will have constant companionship, care, and lots of love throughout the day. I’m available for weekends and extended stays, and I always send daily photo and video updates for peace of mind. I have a fenced yard with a small garden, and there are no other animals in the house, so your pet will receive my full attention. I believe animals need daily outings to stay healthy and happy, so I offer at least two walks a day, either short or long depending on their needs. Playtime and affection are also essential parts of my care routine. If I care for your pet at their home, I make sure to follow their regular routine, so they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I also send daily photos and videos to owners so they can relax knowing their furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for

“Lily was an amazing house sitter and took such great care of our dog Marley! She sent daily updates with photos and we knew Marley was well exercised with daily walks and given lots of love. We came home to a clean house and a very happy dog. I highly recommend Lily and will definitely hire her again. Thank you Lily!!”

About: With years of hands on experience caring for my own dogs, family/friends and volunteering at rescue animal shelter dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, I bring more than just reliability. I bring genuine love and connection to every pet I meet. I take the time to understand each dog’s unique needs, from energetic playtime to calming routines, and I treat every pup like they’re part of my own family. My goal is simple: to give your dog the happiest, safest, and most tail wagging experience while you're away. I am currently working a part time job so the days I am available to work are Monday's, Friday's, Saturday's and Sunday's! I am available anytime from 8am-1pm and if needed evening walks as well just shoot me a message and I will do my best to work around your schedule and needs! I am very open and flexible! I understand how important it is to build trust with both pets and their owners. For me, safety is always a top priority. At home, I ensure my pets are in a secure environment by using properly fitted collars, safe walking routes, and monitoring their behavior during play to avoid any potential hazards. I keep my home pet-proofed, making sure harmful items are out of reach. When I’m looking after clients' pets, I treat them with the same level of care and attention, sticking to any specific safety guidelines provided by the owner, like dietary restrictions, medication schedules, or leash rules. Trust is earned by being reliable, communicative, and consistent, so I make sure to keep pet parents updated with photos, texts, and progress reports.

About: I’m a full-time teacher, and I do dog sitting as a second job (during breaks) because I truly enjoy it.I’m attentive, reliable, and very comfortable following routines and instructions. I love spending time with dogs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m especially good at reading behavior, providing structure when needed, and giving plenty of attention and affection. Whether it’s sticking to a schedule, administering basic care, or just keeping your dog happy and relaxed, I treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I’m a teacher, so I have a consistent schedule and plenty of availability before and after school, in the evenings, holiday breaks and on weekends. I enjoy spending my free time caring for pets and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I care for pets by following their usual routines and any instructions provided by the owner. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, and feel safe and comfortable in their space. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I keep things clean, calm, and consistent.

About: Hi my name is Ash! I currently don’t have a job so I’m available for all services at any time. I’ve been around different types of dogs my entire life. I love to keep dogs entertained and happy by playing with them, walking with them, letting them run around the house, feeding them yummy treats and food, and give lots of cuddles! I’m very good at keeping an eye on dogs when they are wearing a cone or if they are sick. I have experience on giving antibiotics to dogs. I usually let dogs out to go pee every 2-3 hours. I love all animals and am so excited to take care of your dog! I have an apartment but I live close to plenty of dog parks! My schedule is open I don’t work at a physical place right now so I have more than enough time to care for my dogs and yours! I have a nice spacious apartment your dog can run around in and I will always keep an eye on what they are doing. I always make sure there isn’t anything they could get into that would hurt them. Any mess that is made will also always be cleaned up.
