“Margaret has really good communication skills and took daily photos while walking my husky dog and sent text messages on a daily basis. I will use her again in the future and can recommend her services.”

“Stephanie was a great cat sitter. She really helped us out when another Rover sitter canceled and it was getting closer to our departure. She responded immediately and we set up a meet and greet. All went well and we booked her that day. I didn't manage my time effectively and ended up leaving a small note about staying at our apartment and our cat Meka. No problem, we were able to communicate through text and she just knew what to do anyway. She sent pictures every morning and also extra ones with cute poses. I could see Meka had made a new friend. Our plane got in late and she stayed to make sure the cat was feed. Everything was in order and our plants were even taken care of. Don't hesitate book Stephanie, we would again.”

“We booked Nicholle for a one-night stay with our pups and really appreciated that she was available last-minute! She sent plenty of photo updates and kept us in the loop, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Thanks again for helping out on short notice!”

“Veronica took great care of my cat and my apartment. My cat seemed happy & relaxed, and Veronica even took the time to vacuum and wash the sheets. She sent me updates and pictures everyday, which made me feel reassured. I highly recommend Veronica and would book her again in the future.”

“Nicolas made the effort to meet our pups and acquaint himself with our place for the overnight. Our dogs loved him and were comfortable. I recommend if you need someone to handle your large or big energy pup.”

About: After nine years in the corporate world at Google, I’ve stepped away to focus on my passions—with animals at the top of the list. My favorite workday moments were always the same: seeing dogs at the office or coming home to my own two. So, transitioning to professional pet care was a natural next step. I have extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, and even horses for friends, family, and colleagues. With me, your pet will be treated like a member of my family and, most importantly, receive the highest level of care. Weekday Availability: I am fully available Monday through Friday. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, a medication schedule, or consistent check-ins, I have the capacity to be there. Weekend Flexibility: I am available for the vast majority of weekends, so I am here to help when you have travel plans or just need a little extra support during your days off. Safety and comfort always come first, and that starts with understanding your pet and your routine. Because every pet is unique, I tailor my care to their specific needs and your instructions. You can always count on consistent updates with photos, and I am available to address any questions or concerns you may have.
“Molly did a great job taking care of our dogs while we were out of town. She went above and beyond and was very communicative and responsible. She made us feel our pets were safe in her care.”

“Amanda was excellent and would highly recommend! We were gone for 10 days and she continued to consistently send photos, videos and updates everyday. She was very flexible in adjusting to our dogs needs and took good care of our home.”

“Deirdra was perfect! She helped me out with a last minute business day trip and kept Banksy company. Since Banksy is new to our household we are trying to socialize her with as many humans as possible as early on as we can, and Banksy warmed up to her so quickly, which gave us much relief! She sent great photos and left the cutest report card for our puppy! Deirdra really saved the day and I will definitely be using her again in the future, I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you again for all of your help and time!”
“Aolani cared for our two dogs confined to a hotel room while we attended our son’s wedding. She was competent, cheerful, totally reassuring that everything was fine. We recommend her in superlatives!”

“Once again, Jennifer took excellent care of my kittens! They were happy and healthy when I got home and the house looked just as clean as when I left! There were some tech issues and Jennifer was able to look into them for me and get them sorted so all of the automated cat gear could continue to function.”

About: My love for pets began from an early age. My room was resembled a zoo by the time I was ten. Friends rely on me to look after their pets when they're away and I'm experienced with all types of animals and their required care. This is my primary business that I run with my girlfriend who is also available when necessary. I'm reachable 24/7 so owners can have some peace of mind while they're away and as much phone contact as they want. Three day minimum for house sitting please. I have a charming house with a large completely fenced in backyard and friendly neighbors who all have a variety of animals. Your pets will have full time attention and be very comfortable when boarding with me, my wife and two cats.
“Natasia is a new sitter for us, and we tried her out with a couple of visits to our home before we went out of town for a few days last weekend, and she was everything we could have hoped for and more. We have two dogs, one of which is newer to our family, just over a year old and possessing a lot of energy. Natasia is not only a sweet and calm energetic presence, but she is also highly reliable, responsible and responsive with regard to messaging about our upcoming appointments, as well as wellbeing updates about the dogs. Most importantly, our dogs acted as though they were well cared for and loved in our absence. We highly recommend Natasia for any and all of your doggy needs :)”

“Riley is a warm and caring pet sitter! I knew my chihuahua was in good hands at the first meeting, and Riley's confidence and capability in handling my puppy was greatly reassuring. From the pictures, videos and updates it was clear my dog had a great time and felt very comfortable with Riley! So happy to have found her before my trip!”

Gigi was fantastic! From our initial meet and greet, she made me feel totally at ease. She was reliable and communicative and sent photos and updates unprompted. As somebody who is typically very on edge about leaving my dog, especially with a new sitter, I felt such peace of mind knowing she was taking care of puffin. I had her stay in my apartment while I was away and she was respectful of the space and left it cleaner than she found it. 10 out of 10 would recommend and will definitely use her again in the future!

I had such a wonderful experience! She was attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about my pets. She sent thoughtful updates and plenty of pictures throughout the day. She actually got my kitten, Mookie, and my older cat, Toni, to play together! I came home to three happy, relaxed pets. I would absolutely trust her to watch them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their animals.

Omg Luke is the BEST! I’m a crazy dog mom and luke was so calm, sweet and kind with me and my dog. He was super communicative - definitely has become my go-to dog sitter forever now. Also he took amazing care of our house when we were gone - everything was spotless. Thank you, Luke! You’re the best ever and set the standard for Dogsitters!

Emily crushed it! She was super throughout the entire process. Will definitely use again. She was very proactive from the first message - setting up a meet and greet. She was great with Rory during the meeting. For the stay, she was also great! Updates came in frequently, she asked questions, etc. Zero concerns or questions with how our pet was doing. At the end of the stay, she provided an overall summary and some thoughts on Rory which were super helpful. Our house was kept as if no one had stayed here - in a good way! Clean and tidy. Thanks again Emily!!!

What can I say about Sam. Upon meeting Sam for the first time I had a good feeling. Super professional, calm and kind. We had never hired someone to take care of our (very) needy, (terribly) grumpy dog so we were really nervous about how it would go. Usually our dog stays with family who already knows his deal. We didn’t know quite how to prepare someone new let alone what to ask. Sam was very patient and helped us through the process. After meeting Sam there was no doubt he would be our sitter. He was so sweet with our dog and the quirks we warned Sam about were no deterrent at all. His view on pet care, especially those in their golden years is very special. Speaks to the kind heart Sam has. We had a tight turn around between trips and Sam was very understanding and flexible (and didn’t I mention kind??) with us when dealing with logistics. Sam sent pictures of our dog and had great communication while we were away. I could tell our grouchy guy was in heaven from the updates despite our pup having to get eye drops which wasn’t a problem for Sam at all. Long story short, Sam is a lovely human who takes pride in what he does, truly cares about the animals in his care. No doubt would recommend Sam in a heartbeat and would use Sam again.

Angel is wonderful and we were so happy to have him care for our dog while we were away for a holiday weekend. He is very professional and caring and it’s clear he knows how to find the right approach to different dogs. He gave our boy plenty of exercise, walks, hikes, and play time and was consistent about sending pictures and updates!

Kay was a fantastic house and dog sitter. We were away for a week, and she took wonderful care of our two dogs. It was clear she genuinely enjoyed spending time with them, and she went above and beyond throughout her stay. She sent us lots of photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We came home to an immaculate house with everything in perfect order. I can’t recommend Kay highly enough!

Georgie absolutely loved her time with Katy! It was so nice to have a sitter who paid such close attention to my dog’s needs and sent daily updates of the great time they were having. When I returned home I could barely tell anyone had been staying in my place it was so spotless and tidy, exactly as I left it. Will definitely be booking Katy again, she’s very attentive and respectful, and Georgie would say she’s a very fun adventure buddy.
