“Sarah was great and took really good care of Petey. She watched Petey for 4 days and made sure he had plenty of love and attention. Sarah watched Petey in our home and was very respectful of our things and to our neighbors. I highly recommend her services and would definitely hire her again.”
“Audrey was terrific with our dog. We left for 9 days which was three times longer than he had ever been left so she had to cope with his initial sadness. She continually updated us and sent pictures of their activities. It was obvious how much Sloopy liked her. It made us feel so much better while on vacation. 5 star recommendation for Audrey!”
“We highly recommend Owen as a sitter. This was our first time using the app and he was super easy to work with, responded quickly to messages, and took great care of our puppy! He kept us updated and sent photos. Our puppy had a great time!”
About: I have owned and cared for both dogs and cats throughout my life for extended periods of time. I provide them plenty of loving attention and do all the related chores necessary when caring for them. I am a stay-at-home parent of three cats. However, I am able to leave whenever needed to provide care to other animals, as the other owner of our cats will often be home to continue their care. I care for pets by making sure they eat their tasty meals and treats, keeping them company with playtime and plenty of pets, cleaning up after them on a daily basis, providing them exercise, and anything necessary.
“She was absolutely fantastic. We were out of town for longer than we've been before, but we felt completely comfortable and knew our pets were happy and healthy.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Marisa as our cat and house sitter. She took excellent care of our home and left everything clean and well cared for. When Kitty broke a potted plant, she let us know right away and cleaned it up with no fuss at all, which we really appreciated. Our cat was clearly happy, relaxed, and well looked after when we returned, and we loved receiving so many photos and updates while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing our home and cat were in such capable, thoughtful hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Konnie was absolutely amazing!!!! Our dogs were super happy with her and she checked in with us everyday. We knew they were in good hands when she came over for the initial meet and greet, and we were right. They were in great hands! She also left our house clean and organized. We are new to the area and don’t know very many people here, so having a stranger come to our house and watch our dogs was a little unnerving at first. After meeting Konnie, we both felt much better and we will for sure use her services again! She is absolutely fantastic! All 4 of us in the family highly recommend her! Thank you sooooooooo much, Konnie!!!!! ?”
“Sauddi was absolutely amazing! It took no time at all for my 2 dogs to warm up to her. She is loving, kind and knows how to provide an exciting time for the dogs. She provided pictures and updates daily. She took excellent care of the house. We will certainly use her again. Highly recommend Sauddi.”
“Frank was great, and took wonderful care of our dog Luke. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter. We will be using Frank for all of our future sitting needs.”
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life and am very comfortable caring for pets of all ages and personalities. From energetic puppies who need structure and play to senior pets who need patience, gentleness, and a slower pace, I understand how to adjust my care to each animal’s needs. I also have experience caring for cats and respects their routines, boundaries, and unique personalities. I am attentive to details like feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I do work full time as a warehouse supervisor. My shift is Monday - Friday working 10:30am-7:00pm at the latest. But I will be sure to keep your pet's routine and comfort my top priority. I am completely comfortable staying at the home so I can be there around the clock. I treat every pet like a part of my family like they are my own. I will be sure to follow your instructions carefully, you'll receive regular updates and pictures to see how your fur baby is doing.
“Thank you so much for staying with my girl while I was out of town! I couldn't be happier with how well my pup was cared for. She sent pictures regularly throughout the day and kept me informed of how my pup was doing. 100% would recommend to anyone for any critter.”
“Erin was fabulous with my 2 cats. She tooks lots of pictures of them to share with me. I could see that my boys were very happy and in great hands with Erin. I will definitely be reaching out to Erin again.”
About: I’m available for round-the-clock care this summer! I am a music teacher during the school year but I love taking care of animals as well. I can care for any type of animal, I’m always down to learn about new and interesting pets too! I’m available almost 24/7 this summer since I’m a teacher and have summers off. I’m hoping to get plenty of walks in not only for the animals but also myself! I am able to provide consistent care around the clock if needed. I can follow directions for feeding, medication administration, and bathroom needs. I love walking dogs and hanging out with cats!
“Shayna had great communication. She sent pictures of my baby as requested. She was very kind and respectful of the house. I could tell that my pup was comfortable in her care. Would definitely book again.”
“It was such a relief to have Aidan caring for my dogs at my house while I was gone on my 8 day vacation. My pups are 14 and 11 years old and have special dietary and medical needs and he was able to keep them well fed, medicated and happy! This was the first time in their whole lives that I didn't have friends or family available to watch them, but I didn't have to worry as Aidan sent pictures and kept me up to date on how things were going. If I am in this situation again Aidan will be the first person I reach out to!”

Sarah is the most thoughtful and considerate dog sitter we have ever had. She is interested in knowing all of your pets’ unique needs, behaviors, and routines. We have referred her to other friends who equally prioritize dog + house sitting services and look to trust someone with experience. Our senior dogs have separation anxiety when we travel for work. Sarah gives us peace of mind knowing that they are given the genuine love, individualized attention, and comfort they are used to with us at home. No matter if it is a smaller trip, or a longer time away, Sarah is prepared, patient, communicative, and generous with our pups. We return home to a clean house every time. We could not recommend her more.
Meridith was AMAZING and made everything so easy for us. Our baby boy is a bit spoiled and we were so worried leaving him again but upon return he was calm, content, and so happy. Communication was a big one for us and Meridith nailed it! We knew how he was doing with updates every few days which was perfect since service in the mountains was minimal and we went to unwind. She was professional, kind, and very reliable. She also washed sheets, folded towels and our house was clean when we got home. Would I recommend her? 10000x yes.
Taevon was so amazing,I contemplated not writing a review to selfishly keep him available when I need but he deserves all the public praise!!! From beginning to end his response time to everything was basically immediate. He did a meet and greet with my two very old pups and came prepared to ask questions based off their profiles and info. One of our pups comes with a TON of issues and his needs and care are 1 of 1 for sure. Tae handled him and all his quirky needs seemlessly. I returned home to an immaculate home, and two peaceful content old dogs. We have two homes and honestly making sure they are always in Cleveland to f I need a sitter bc Tae is UNMATCHED in care!
Mallery was so amazing watching our pets! She watched our dog, Bash, for 11 days in our home and we also had two cats that she loved on and gave lots of attention to as well. She took great care of our home and brought our mail in for us which was so nice! We got updates on the pets while we were gone and when we got home, everyone was happy and healthy and our house was so clean too! Mallery was really amazing and we felt so at ease while we were on vacation knowing she was taking great care of our fur babies. We will definitely have Mallery watch our pets again in the future!!
Lillian was fantastic! She came over twice before booking, at my request, to get familiar with my 2 dogs. We had an unexpected illness in my dog and she was able to give him his medication while we were on vacation. We came home last night to 2 happy dogs, house in order, and pee pads washed!
Sabrina was great with our dogs! She made sure to take the time out of her day to meet prior to ensure that the pups were comfortable with her. She was very easy to communicate with even when we needed to book with her last minute. Definitely book with her! Thanks again!
