“Kim had great communication the entire time! She sent me pictures of Jojo (which definitely brightened my day and alleviated some of my worry). After feeding she let me know how she was doing. She was also punctual. I felt like I had left my girl in good hands!!”
“Roree was amazing in her care for Ruby. She touched base with me every morning to let me know that Ruby was eating well and doing great taking her medications. As an owner with a special needs dog (illness and personality) Roree was so patient getting to know Ruby and allowing her the time and space to be comfortable. It was such a relief to be able to go on vacation and know that Ruby was in good hands and being taken care of with a level of care and dedication that is hard to find! Thank you Roree!!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Michaela - she was absolutely amazing!! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves and understands dogs. Our dogs immediately felt comfortable with her and the peace of mind made all the difference while we were away. She was reliable, communicative and went above and beyond with updates, photos, and thoughtful touches that showed how much she cared. We came home to happy, calm dogs and a spotless home. It is rare to find someone this trustworthy and dedicated. If you are looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, look no further. We highly recommend Michaela and will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“We had to go out of town on short notice, and we were so happy that Brandon was available to stay with our dog and cat. This is the second time he’s taken care of them. Brandon is really good with our pets and they really like him. He’s conscientious, considerate and kind. Thank you Brandon!”
About: Hi! I’m a laid-back yet enthusiastic animal lover with a lifetime of experience growing up in a home full of pets. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes — from tiny lap dogs to large breeds like pit bulls and bulldogs — and I truly understand how unique every dog is. I have extensive experience working with aggressive dogs, helping them feel safe and well-behaved through patience and training. I’m also skilled in caring for senior pets, providing gentle attention and medical support to keep them comfortable and happy. I especially love big lap dogs and enjoy taking all dogs on adventure walks tailored to their energy and needs. I’m very mindful of each pet’s limitations, ensuring every walk and play session is safe and enjoyable. I’m extremely flexible and always bring calm, positive energy into every home. Whether your dog needs training support, medication, playtime, or just a relaxed companion, I’ll treat them like family. Let’s make tail wags happen! I start my mornings with potty walks and breakfast, take a mid-day sniff breaks in between, and end the day with playtime and bedtime belly rubs. I understand how important your pet’s comfort and safety are, as well as respecting your home. To ensure both, I strictly follow every client’s specific instructions and routines — from feeding times to play preferences and medication schedules. I keep your space clean and organized, always secure doors, gates, and windows, and treat your home with the same care I would my own. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates with photos or messages to keep you connected and assured. Above all, I prioritize your pet’s well-being by giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, making sure they feel loved and comfortable while you’re away.
“Annemarie was excellent! She took good care of our 3 cats and dog, sent pic texts daily, and the house was perfect when we came home. Thanks for holding down the fort while we escaped, Annemarie!”
“Skyler was very attentive to our dog, Remi’s needs, and maintained her daily schedule. She communicated well and sent pictures. Remi is high anxiety, she seemed to be comfortable with Skyler. She even continued to play with Skyler and her son after we returned home. Would definitely recommend for your pet care needs”
“Summer did a great job with our three dogs. She stayed with them in our home while we were away for 5 days. She sent daily pictures and updates, our pups looked happy in every picture. We would definitely book with Summer again!”
“Melyssa was prompt in responding to my inquiry and communicative throughout the whole process. We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Melyssa as our dog sitter for Cooper on Rover! Thank you”
“Tiffany was timely, thorough, invested, and approachable. She made sure she was available to be with our dogs for the entire stay, which is very important as they need a lot of human presence. Our dogs connected with her immediately, she had them playing with her within moments of her meeting them. Tiffany took a ton of photos, and we could easily see that the dogs were safe and happy all throughout our trip. We highly recommend Tiffany.”
“Rosalyn was a life-saver! She made the whole process easy and comfortable since this was the first time we have used the site. We highly recommend Rosalyn. We had a meet and greet prior that made us all comfortable the dog included..ha ha. She sent pics throughout the weekend and updates. If you are hesitant reach out to Rosalyn. It was a great experience!”
About: Hi all, it's Kate here! Life long animal lover. I've lived with dogs both big and small since I was born. I am a dog owner of 10 years, well versed with training puppies and caring for seniors. I have a ton of availability this summer as I just finished up my job teaching art to children. Over the last two years I've had extensive experience doing private child/animal care for both cats and dogs. Id like to take care of your pets ❤️ I've taken care of, lived with, and rescued turtles, rodents, fish, cats, dogs, etc! I'm in my mid twenties and very soft spoken and gentle. I currently live in Ridgefield. I love all animals, and would love to care for yours! I would care for them as if they were my own! My schedule is super flexible and open this summer, other than making art your pet will have my full love and attention! I can always make the time for you and your pet just let me know what you need. 💖 In my home I have a high need toy-sized Australian shepherd that is friendly with other animals, well loved and cared for. I live in a small gated community directly across from our fenced-in private dog park, so I can assure you that your pets will be safe in my care. I am capable of following any instructions given for care in your own home such as walking, feeding, playing, administering medicine, you name it! I have a pet hammock installed in the back seat of my car that I can buckle your pets harness into for safe transport as well :+) My policy is to always keep dogs leashed when not in a secure, fenced environment. I simply don't trust a dog's recall unless they are my own and I've personally trained them. If I observe anything concerning with a pet, I'll reach out to the owner right away to ensure it's not a serious issue. I know how important it is to be fully informed about my own pets, so I can provide immediate instructions and avoid unpleasant surprises later on
“Izzabella is fantastic. She stayed at our house for 15 days and took excellent care of our pup and home. Our dog is 11, and starting to have issues, but is still very active, loves her long walks. She also loves being with people, so needs someone caring and present. Izzabella is a wonderful pup sitter, and our pup is always excited to see her and looks great when we return. Our home was left clean and in order, aswell. She took care of everything. We will continue to use her in the future.”

Jasmine R.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Jasmine. Both of our dogs can be a bit of a handful, but Lily especially has a lot of anxiety and is typically very slow to trust new people. She usually keeps her distance and avoids strangers, but Jasmine somehow connected with her almost immediately. That alone was enough to win us over. Jasmine was patient, calm, and incredibly kind with both Lily and Bruno. She didn’t rush anything and let Lily come to her on her own terms, which made all the difference. Throughout the stay, she kept us regularly updated with texts and photos, letting us know how they were doing, what they were up to, and how they were feeling. Anytime she had to leave the house, even briefly, she let us know so we never had to wonder. It was clear she took her time with them, playing, cuddling, just being there, and that meant everything to us. When we got home, both dogs were relaxed, happy, and clearly attached to her. We’re so grateful to have found someone who truly understands dogs with anxiety and treats them like family. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Jasmine again. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants real peace of mind while they’re away.”
