“Amy watched my Pomeranian, Peaches, for a couple of days last week, and I can’t recommend her enough. From the start, she was an excellent communicator and brought such a calm, grounding energy—exactly what both I and my dog needed. She even came early the day I was leaving and gently soothed Peaches while I packed. Peaches didn’t even realize I was heading out! Amy is truly a dog whisperer and gave me complete peace of mind. She’s the kind of sitter every dog owner hopes to find.”
“Natalie was great! We really appreciated her flexibility and dedication. She was very conscientious with our home. And she took some great photos :)”
“Rachael was so great with my dog! She updated me with pictures and made sure to give lots of love to dog. Very happy with the way the home was left too everything was spotless!”
“Julia was amazing. She is caring, attentive, communicative, and professional. My dog has some separation anxiety and generally doesn't love having "strangers" in his house, but he took to Julia almost immediately; he even seemed sad to see her leave after I returned! She absolutely helped him (and me!) to feel at ease while I was away.”
“Andrew is an amazing dog sitter! He stayed at our home for two weeks while we were on vacation and looked after our 2 dogs. He was amazing, he texted us daily updates with pictures and even found a fenced area to play fetch with my mini aussie as he is high energy. Followed the care instructions for my yorkie who just had surgery. He definitely went above and beyond and I 100% recommend him!”
“Farhad was wonderful with our babies, and even treated them as his own. He sent plenty of updates a day videos. This is the start of a great friendship. I would definitely recommend him!”
“Shalese is amazing! She made me feel super comfortable leaving my reactive dog for a few days and they got along so well! Will definitely book any time I need someone to watch my girl.”
“Aurora took great care our pup while we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures, and it looked like they had a great time! Would definitely book her again for house sitting.”
“Bryn took excellent care of of my 11 month old Doberman. She’s excellent with larger, high energy dogs! When I came home from my trip, he was well exercised, happy, and hardly stressed by my absence.”
“Tatiana was a total professional! Regular updates, great communication, and the house was honestly probably neater than it was left. Would 100% recommend for pet care and safe house sitting. Thank you, Tatiana! Woody and the girls send their best.”
“Diana has experience with both puppies and senior dogs and she was great with my dog with separation anxiety. Good communication and lots of photos. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Carly stayed with my dog for the weekend and did a fabulous job! She sent frequent photos of their adventures and was excellent with communication. I highly recommend her!”
“Caleigh took amazing care of my pup Rylo He is a rescue that I’ve had for about 3 months and she was great with him, giving him space and he took to her quickly I loved getting the photos and updates each day I feel very lucky finding Caleigh!”
“Alice was absolutely wonderful! We met beforehand to do a meet and greet before staying at our home. She was incredibly respectful of our space, took such good care of our pup, sending updates multiple times a day. She’s responsible, kind, and great with animals. I’d have her babysit any time!”
“I'd give Almira 7 stars if it were an option! I booked her last minute and she was very accommodating. She stayed at our house for a night and watched our 2 dogs and cat. She came prepared with questions and provided regular updates with pictures. I plan to use her again and would highly recommend to others looking for a responsible, attentive caregiver. Thank you, Almira!”
“Bethany was wonderful with the pups and a terrific house guest. She was very responsive and communicative. The entire process could not have been more seamless. I would not hesitate to rebook with her in the future.”
“Dori did a great job, was very personable and went beyond her role as Dog sitter when I was in a pinch. I would defiantly use her again. Bear says hello! Tracy”

“This was our first time using Rover and Jordan was AWESOME! Our pup is extremely attached to our family and does not take to non family members well at all but she developed an immediate connection with Jordan. We got a lot of great pictures of our Rosie while we were away which made being so far away from her for 9 days much easier - especially because she was so well connected with Jordan. We’ll definitely be asking Jordan to sit with Rosie again in the future.”
About: I’ve always been around pets and helped my parents take care of our own from a young age. I’ve volunteered with animal shelters and have my own cat who I love dearly! I’m educated in behavior analysis so I’m skilled in training and enforcing boundaries. My schedule follows the school calendar so I have extra availability over school breaks and holidays for house-sitting. I work at a school from 8-3 so I’m available for drop in visits during the week and overnight care on the weekends. When school is on break I’m available for extended overnight stays/housesitting. I’m very friendly but respectful of animal boundaries! I want your pet to be comfortable with me, but I understand that can take time and strive to never go too fast too quickly. I’m very experienced with behavior analysis and can recognize and understand animal body language and behaviors.

“Juma has dog sat for our lab and terrier mix quite a few times. I can’t recommend him enough. He genuinely loves dogs. He sends pictures and updates regularly when we are away. He is patient and caring (a must for our challenging terrier), and most importantly he is reliable. He shows up on time, is super responsive, and just overall a wonderful person. I can assure anyone that uses him will be more than happy…and so will your dogs!!”
