“Hailey is the person you want your pets to see while you’re away. My boys immediately took to her and were happy to see her stop by. Hailey has such a warm and calming presence that made them both comfortable. I appreciated her communication with me to let me know how the visit was going as well as the videos and photos she sent over. This would have been a 10 star rating if this app had that option :)”


2. Kyungmi Nadia A.

“Kyungmi Nadia took such great care of our cat while we were away! She started taking care of her when she was high needs right out of surgery. Great communication with us the whole time. We always came home to a happy, very well cared for kitty. She took the time to make sure her litter box, food, and water dishes were always clean. We had adorable pictures everyday, and she even brought our mail in! I really could not have asked for a better caregiver for our kitty!! We trust her 100% and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, and trustworthy sitter for their pet!”

About: Lifetime of Experience – From Puppies to Seniors, Big to Small! Raised, trained, and cared for animals since childhood, including rescues, strays, and special-needs pets. Skilled in training, hospice care, and even delivering puppies (including breached births!). Reliable transportation and years of shelter volunteer work mean I bring patience, expertise, and a deep love for all animals. Whether your pet needs structured training, extra cuddles, or senior care, they’re in experienced hands! Pet care is the perfect balance to my busy career—it’s how I unwind. My schedule allows me to provide care in the evenings during the week, mornings on weekends, and overnight most nights. I’m also available for multiple-night stays as long as I can work during the day. Animals have always been a grounding force in my life, and I love spending my free time making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I provide care in my clients’ homes, ensuring pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether it’s leash walks, supervised playtime in the yard, or just keeping them company, I tailor my care to their needs. I focus on keeping routines consistent, providing plenty of engagement, and making sure each pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.

“I highly recommend Rebecca! Everything went very smoothly and she made my family’s time away stress free. She took care of my two dogs and it was clear they were in good hands! She sent several pictures with her updates which was awesome!”


15. Hailey M.
About: I have had my dog for 8 years I love to just spend time with her and take care of her it brings me joy to do so. I am working full time at a school, but I am available early mornings as well as evenings for walking or drop in visits. I am available all day on the weekends. Because I work at a school, I do have many days off as well as the summers so you are welcome to check in with me especially on holidays for my availability. I am able to care for your pet in your home and provide any care your pets need. I would prefer to not house sit as I live in an apartment complex that charges me for having a pet in my space.


16. Nyruh S.
“Nyruh is a very responsible and punctual young lady. If you want anyone walking your dog it’s her because with her your loved one will be in good hands. Not only is she punctual but she is very adamant about safety and is detail oriented. She will make sure that their collar is on correctly, they are fed, and have the safest amount of fun.”


17. Yeibi C.
“Amazing dog sitter!! Yeibi kept me updated the entire stay with our pup. He even picked up and dropped off which saved us a lot of time. Would definitely recommend him and rebook with him!”

About: Many years experience of potty and crate training puppies. I have raised a St. Bernard, Husky, 2 Pomeranians, and currently have a BichaPoo. I even was able to assist my Pom Coco when she gave birth to her son. It was a beautiful moment. My schedule is very flexible and most days I work from home. Plenty of time to spend with your pet. If I do have to go into the office I will be gone no longer than 5 hours. In the evenings my husband and 4 kids (ages 15,12,7 & 7) are home as well. I have a fenced backyard and a lovable BishaPoo to play with your fur baby. Pets in our home are free to roam around our home. They are one of the family.
