Ailish is a wonderful sitter!! She took excellent care of our two dogs and home. She is super nice, friendly, and easy to communicate with. I very highly recommend her and will have her sit for us again in the future.

Tom did a great job with our dogs. Our youngest pup can be tricky at times and he warmed right up to Tom. He took great care of both dogs and our home.

About: I've been around animals my entire life and have experience with both dogs and cats. I volunteered at the SPCALA animal shelter for several years, helping care for animals of all ages and personalities. I grew up with two cats and have also fostered pets, giving me experience helping animals adjust to new environments. I had a beloved dog who lived into her 20s, and my family recently foster-failed our newest dog. After recently moving to the area, I'm away from my dog and definitely missing having animals around every day. Caring for pets brings me so much joy, and I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same love, attention, and care that I've always given my own. I am currently on summer break from my teaching position and working remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the week. Because my work is portable, I can be available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship during hours when many sitters may be unavailable. My schedule allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care rather than just quick check-ins. As a teacher, I am responsible, patient, detail-oriented, and comfortable following routines, all of which translate well to providing dependable care for your pets. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I live in a spacious apartment in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood near a lake, which provides a great environment for walks, exercise, and enrichment. Potty breaks are easy and frequent since I live on the second floor with quick access outside. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, feeding according to their schedule, and lots of affection. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I am happy to follow any instructions regarding routines, medications, exercise, training, or special care. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both the pets and the home with the same respect and care that I would my own.

About: I am a college student who majors in Biomedical Sciences and plans to attend veterinary school after graduation. I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs, since I was young, and have helped care for my own dog since childhood. My passion for animal care has been my motivation to pursue a future in veterinary medicine. Along with caring for my own dogs, I have had experience with dog sitting and dog walking. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities while making sure they are happy, safe, active, and well cared for. I am currently a college student home for summer break, and I am looking for part-time work. I am available almost every day until August 1st. I will be home again for Thanksgiving break, winter break, and spring break. When caring for pets in my client's home, I would follow the pet's normal routine and follow any additional instructions my client has left me while playing and caring for their pet.

Amanda was fantastic to work with and at taking care of our dogs. Our dogs are pretty simple and some sitters can take advantage of that ease, but she still went above and beyond.

James took great care of our dog Remi while we were on vacation. We were nervous to leave him since we just moved to the city and Remi has been struggling with reactivity to other dogs, but James took great care of him. He took Remi on lots of walks and worked with his reactivity which was awesome! We got lots of updates and pictures, and Remi had a great time! I highly recommend James.

We couldn’t have asked for a better first-time experience with a house sitter! From start to finish, Natalie was incredibly communicative, thoughtful, and proactive. She kept us updated throughout our trip with sweet notes and photos which brought us so much peace of mind while we were away. She followed all of our care instructions to the letter and when we returned home, everything was spotless. It was clear Emmy was well cared for. We’re so grateful to have found someone so dependable and kind. Highly recommend without hesitation!

Liz is the best! She was available on short notice to housesit my two doggies. From the initial meet and greet I knew Liz was great. You can just tell if someone knows dogs and loves them. Throughout the trip, she was highly responsive and forward with any updates. Honestly, I’m so glad I found Liz. I will use her for all bookings going forward and I will highly recommend her to anybody. And know that I am not a bot or a pre-populated review. I am a real person who needed a dog sitter from a Memorial Day holiday weekend and Liz came through! I am grateful to her.

About: I have helped take care of friends and families dogs/pets for about 5 years now. I have overnight sat for friends and took care of their dogs that required special feeding and medication instructions. I also helped train my own dog with stuff like sit and paw. I am currently working part-time in the hospital as an aide. I will not be working for most of the summer, so I will have plenty of time to check in on dogs or even stay over night at houses to pet sit. I have a fenced in yard and a long, strong lead if needed for dogs that can be escape artists. I also am strong enough to hold bigger dogs that can pull.

My dog is reactive but Daniela not only handled him but my brothers dog for 4 days as well. My dog warmed to her immediately. Daniela asked thoughtful questions about my pup's care when we first met that let me know my pup was in good hands. She took good care of my pup and provided a lot of updates and photos that helped put my mind at ease while traveling. Highly, Highly recommend!

Colin exceeded our expectations in pet sitting our Tibetan terrier, Buzzy. He was extremely communicative to us as we travelled abroad over Christmas, was so kind to Buzzy (a newly adopted dog) and took exceptional care of him whilst simultaneously respecting our home. I cannot recommend Colin highly enough. 100/100!!!

Tanya was terrific with our dog and cat while we were away for 5 days. She followed our guidance and ensured that both pets received special care. She sent regular updates and pictures, as requested, and we could relax while we were away, knowing our little guys were under kind and safe care. Our home was well cared for and Tanya was conscientious about collecting our mail and deliveries We will be definitely rebook Tanya when we are next out of town.
