“Honestly there’s nothing I can say to convey how wonderful and at ease our dog was with him. He was attentive to our fur baby and treated him like we would. It was nice to enjoy our night out and not have to worry about our dog because we knew that Thomas was everything and more than we can ask for in a dog sitter. Our fur baby was truly in good hands.”

“Highly recommend Jena as a dog sitter! She was so good with my dogs, made sure to keep me updated, and sent pics everyday. She was also super responsive and took extra care with my new rescue pup! I will definitely reach out to her in the future!”

“Ida and Travis did an amazing job, would 100% recommend them! I have a cat that can be fairly mischievous but they were fully prepared and my kitty was in great hands. They followed all the instructions, and updated me frequently which was so nice. Came home to a clean house and a happy kitty! Thanks so much!!”

“Nicole was fantastic. She took care of our senior dog and two cats and all three were doing great when we returned. She took time and care with each animal, especially with our skittish cat who is very frightened of new people. Our house looked fantastic when we returned, Nicole had even changed the sheets and washed her towels! And she stayed in constant communication with us, sending pictures all the time. We highly recommend Nicole and will definitely use her again in the future.”


“Wow! What an incredible sitter Hong was. This is the first time I have ever been away from my fur babies and not worried once. She was so communicative the entire time and I came back to happy dogs and a pristine house. If I could give her 10 stars I would! Thank you again Hong. ❤️”

“Elizabeth was great with our animals - a big girl dog and two cats. She was very respectful of our space - it looked as clean as we’d left it. More importantly, our animals were very very happy when we got home! She sent good daily updates - wonderful communicator. We highly recommend and would welcome her back to our home.”

“Fox was INCREDIBLE with my 1 year old Shiba Inu. They communicated excellently and treated my pup like she was their own. I can’t thank Fox enough for their service and I would 100% rebook with them as often as I can!!”

“Rong has house/pet sat for us twice now. We have two labradoodles and a small flock of chickens. Rong is great about communication and following instructions. She took good care of all our pets and made sure all their needs were met. She also communicated daily with me and provided photos to show how our pups and chickens were doing while we were away. We were very happy with her services and plan to ask her to house/pet sit again in the future!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for my own dog and 8 years of experience caring for my two cats. In addition, I've cared for my neighbor's dog on multiple occasions over the past five years. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having someone to keep them company at home, I'll provide attentive, reliable care and treat them like they're part of my own family. I'm happy to follow your pet's routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm currently on summer break from college, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, whether that's daytime visits, walks, overnight stays, or last-minute bookings. I'll make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I will be caring for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, so I'll carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and house rules. I'm very cautious and attentive when caring for pets, and I'll always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. My goal is to provide dependable care while giving you peace of mind that your pet is in good hands.

About: I come from parents who did Alaskan dog mushing with over 20 dogs. I grew up surrounded by dogs and have experience with many breeds. I know how to train, help with senior care, and provide any advice you’re looking for. I’m currently working part time, so I can quickly adapt to any pet or house needs you might have. I’m also very physically active so any further exercise is welcome! After growing up with dogs in the Alaskan wilderness surrounded by moose, I definitely have good habits of staying aware of my surroundings. I’ll be able to fully dedicate myself to your requests!
“Tami had a GREAT connection with Lucy. She quickly figured out Lucy's personality, her likes/dislikes, favorite activities (going to the beach) and also the ins and outs of my apartment and building. Tami did a wonderful job of sending me pictures at least twice a day so that I could feel at peace that my girl was happy and being taken good care of.”

“Sam is fantastic, a true master communicator with dogs. She adores living their lives with them, taking them out on the trails and playing their favorite games. Couldn’t be happier to leave our pup in her hands when we’re out of town.”

“Wenjie did so well with our cranky old dog, taking care of the dog and apartment equally. He is cheery, responsive, and responsible, and we would book him again for Henry in a heartbeat”

“I've had Francesca house sit my two pitbulls twice and she's been great both times. She understands how to take care of my frail, elderly dog as well as my reactive 5 year old. And she responds quickly to my questions.”

“Tim is amazing! Would rebook him anytime. Super detailed about care and directions, great updates and just overall made me feel at ease about leaving Louie, who has some senior special needs, in his care. It’s hard to find people that are as kind and thoughtful about your pet and home, but Tim is that person. Thank you so much.”

Moana sprained her leg just a day before Elisa was booked to house sit, but Elisa didn't even flinch and just showed up ready to take copious notes about our adjusted care instructions. She sent detailed reports each day with captioned pictures so we were constantly at ease and able to enjoy our time away knowing our baby was in the best hands. So grateful to have found Elisa ❤️❤️❤️

Mara was great! She jumped in quickly when we needed a house and pet sitter on short notice. She came by for 2 get-to-know-our-pooch walks beforehand. She was great with our older pup Roscoe and even though he can be standoffish, she won him over. Really good communication and took excellent care of our house. Would definitely hire her again!

Cameron was very lovely! Our pup can be a little shy and timid. However, in the short time he had, he was able to eventually build trust and create a bond. We really appreciate him staying in touch during Enzo’s care and giving up assurance with frequent updates. We also appreciate his calm and positive attitude.

This is the second time we have had Atusa stay at our home and she is beyond lovely! She communicates so well with our family and lets us know how the animals are doing. We appreciate her very much and are so thankful we found her on this app. I completely trust her with my animals and my home.

Stephanie takes great care of our two dogs! The dogs are very different, but Stephanie always knows how to meet their individual needs. They can be challenging to walk, too, and Stephanie does a great job with them. Stephanie is very reliable and our go-to sitter!

Elizabeth was great with our animals - a big girl dog and two cats. She was very respectful of our space - it looked as clean as we’d left it. More importantly, our animals were very very happy when we got home! She sent good daily updates - wonderful communicator. We highly recommend and would welcome her back to our home.

Hollie watched our senior old man dog while we were away. It had been over a year since we’d last left him with a sitter and she was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates that helped ease our minds. Was courteous and thoughtful in doing laundry for us so it was clean upon our return home. A great sitter and would recommend her to anyone!

Feel so lucky to have found Rich! He took wonderful care of my dog, Tova. He sent daily photos and I knew she was in good hands while I was away. I came back home to a clean house and a thorough report on Tova’s behavior. Rich clearly loves animals and has a keen sense of their needs.
