We couldn't be more grateful for the amazing care our pets received! Not only was she incredibly sweet and caring, but she also handled an unexpected emergency. Her quick think and clear communication made all the difference. We came home to happy dogs.

We’ve loved continually working with Nicole! As does our puppy. Even as our dog grows and adapts and develops new behaviors, Nicole is super accommodating with his personality + very diligent on updates! Thanks as always!

Theodore was great! Our dogs Harley and Zoey loved him and we couldn’t ask for anyone better! He gave us updates on how they were doing and sent pictures and we didn’t have to worry at all about how they were doing when we were away on vacation! We could just relax and enjoy ourselves! There was an incident at the end of his time watching them where Harley chewed a couple things, but that was only because he was anxious because Theodore had a family emergency and had to leave in the middle of the night and was totally understandable and not his fault! We would definitely recommend him to housesit and watch your pets and we will definitely be using him again in the future!

Rowan has been the best dog and cat sitter we’ve had since using this app—10/10, highly recommend. They’re great with animals, always send photos and updates, and are incredibly reliable and attentive.

Jennifer house sit LuLu my 14 year old dog and did a great job. She was very attentive and provided excellent care for LuLu. Jennifer administered LuLu her daily medication and tended to her overall care. In addition if Jennifer had any questions or concerns she was not hesitate to contact me to clarify what was needed for LuLu. Job well done.

About: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born! I have a BSc in Veterinary Technology, have been a US Army Veterinary Technician for 20 years working with Military and Law Enforcement working dogs and have a huge passion for canine enrichment and fitness 🐕❣️ I am a full time student pursuing my Master's in Clinical Care, but don't let that discourage you! I have excellent time management skills, and can very easily balance lifestyle and education. I am also still in the Reserves, meaning one weekend out of each month, I won't be available to hang out with your sweet fur-babies 😭 Otherwise, I am wide available! I do have 5 dogs of my own and a fully fenced yard. However, they are a solid pack and can be a little unpredictable when introducing new friends. Because of this, my main goal is to take your fur-babies on walks and get them some exercise and enrichment, rather than have them over for play time.

Kara was great with all our dogs (and tortoise)! One of our dogs is old and needs insulin and a diaper and another is very stressed around strangers. Kara took the time to let the dogs get to know her and everything went really well.

Corette did an amazing job taking care of our two high maintenance kitties. She sent us picture updates and it was clear our cats loved spending time with her while we were gone. I would definitely have Corette watch our cats again!

Amazing. Robert went above and beyond! Not only did he take care of our house while we were away, being careful with packages and mail, but our fur babies were completely at peace with him. Usually they don't eat regularly and our kitty hides but they loved him so much and opened up for cuddles and play. Absolutely loved his personality too. He was so fun and easy going.

About: I've grown up always having pets in the home. We've always had at least one dog in the house, along with a handful of other types of pets (cats, rats, guinea pigs, even a chinchilla) throughout the years. This has solidified my love for animals of all kinds, and makes me eager to care for and love your pets as if they are my own, if you choose to give me the opportunity to do so :) I am a teacher trying to keep myself busy for the summer! My schedule is wide open so feel free to message me with any requests! I care for pets in their own home by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, and any medications they may need. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I also make sure to keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind! I also have reliable transportation which would allow me to be able to come to your home and care for your pet in their own environment!

Jolee was a great help for me and my dogs! Her communication was excellent, from the initial booking process to the day of. She kept me informed on when she'd be there and when she left. I like that she asked about what the dogs' needs were based off information in their profiles. Showed great attention to detail. My dogs are pretty low key most of the time, but I really liked that she wanted to get their toys out and be involved with them while at the house. It made me feel very at ease about being away for a day. I would definitely book with her again!

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals from the age of 11 and up. I have about 10 years of experience pet sitting, walking and training, with all different sizes of dogs, cats and even some horses! I volunteered at taps for about a year and a half. I’ve always been a big animal lover for as long as I can remember, I treat every animal as if they were my own baby’s! I currently work a part-time job so I have plenty of time throughout the day to take care of your baby’s the only times I’m not available is past 6pm on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. I am very clean and respectful in other peoples homes most the people I’ve pet sat or dog walked for say they wouldn’t have even noticed I was there if there wasn’t things in the trash

About: I have been taking care of my pets on my own since I was 14 years old. My boyfriend and I currently have a 5 year old boxer/pit bull mix, a 2 year old yellow lab, a 2 year old grey short haired cat, and a 6 month old black and white short haired kitten. I have been surrounded by pets of all kind since a young age including ferrets, rabbits, cats, dogs, bearded dragons, and more! I also have my own service dog so I am highly trained in commanding dogs who are well trained. I currently work full time at a school as a 1:1 for students with autism and behavioral issues. I work 8am-3pm M-F and am free outside of those hours :) I try my hardest to cater the care that I give to your pet based on your needs. Communication is key as it helps me better care for your pet.

Anastasia did an excellent job taking care of my dog and my house while I was away. Buster lived his best life with walks twice a day and daily brushing and scheduled tummy rub time… I’m sure he misses Anastasia. The house was in perfect condition when I got home I would hire Anastasia again in a heart beat, and recommend her highly.
