“Bennie and Jennie did another wonderful job taking care of Freddie . He is happy to see me when I get home but a bit mopey because he misses them . He enjoys their care and attention. He was fed brushed and played with all the things he needs to keep my baby healthy and safe . I can’t say enough about how comfortable and secure I feel knowing they are in my house taking care of Freddie . They are respectful trust worthy and leave my house cleaner than when I left without my having to ask. It’s such a relief knowing I can plan a trip and if they are available I don’t have to worry about anything at home. Highly recommend these sweet caretakers if you need a babysitter .”



“Michelle is incredible! She has a natural way with our shy, anxious dog, quickly earning his trust and affection. He absolutely loves her! She’s reliable, communicative, and always takes great care of our home. We couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter—highly recommend!”


“Sarah is a wonderful house sitter to both dogs and cats. She took care of our pets for 5 days and sent us pictures everyday of them having a great time. She even left us a bottle of champagne when we came back as we just got married. I highly recommend Sarah to watch your pets. My neighbors complimented her for her great service and attentiveness to my pets.”


“This was my first time having a stranger watch my dog and house, and Annalie did a fantastic job! She took great care of my dog, Winston, and kept me updated throughout the weekend with photos and videos, which really helped put my mind at ease. Everything at the house was just as I left it, and Winston was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Annalie and plan to book with her again in the future!”


“If I could give Irene more than 5 stars, I would! She is hands down the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. From the moment she met our pup, we knew she was something special. She’s kind, attentive, responsible, and truly treats our dog like her own. We got regular updates, adorable photos, and could tell our Gigi was happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. It’s not easy to leave your pet with someone, but with her, we had complete peace of mind.”


About: I am more excited to hang out with your pets than you are for your vacation. Grew up with dogs and cats, and I am currently the go-to sitter among my family and friends! I am freelance editor and part-time substitute teacher with 100% control of my schedule. On subbing days, I’m at school from 8:00-2:30; for my freelance projects, I can work anywhere (including your home, with your pets!) The comfort of your pets is my number one priority, and I am happy to accommodate experiences to disrupt their schedules and environment as little as possible, especially for high-stressed friends.

“Juliana house sat my dog while I was away and did an amazing job as she always does. I feel at peace whenever she is caring for my dog, who can be reactive towards others dogs, but she handles him with confidence and knows how to deal with different types of dogs. She goes above and beyond every time and is my go to rover walker/sitter.”


“Don was very attentive with our senior dog! She has quite a few needs these days and Don was detail-oriented and followed all our instructions carefully. It made it much easier for us to enjoy our trip knowing that our dog was in good hands. He sent lots of updates and photos. We even think our pup was missing her new friend after we returned. :)”


“Alexander was amazing! Super communicative all day, sent tons of photos, regular updates. I barely feel like I left because he kept me so informed about how Nova was doing even down to noticing the little things! Highly recommend and I will definitely have him back in the future. Grateful he was randomly able to come with an hours notice when another sitter canceled. Thank you”

I appreciate you so much Jane!”

“Chloe was a wonderful dog sitter! I had NEVER left my 3 old dogs before, one of whom is on cardiac medications. She took excellent care of them and did so much more to look after my house. I loved the photos and videos of them that she faithfully sent twice a day. They really allowed me to relax on my trip because I heard how she talked to them and saw how she loved on them. She is a great communicator and very conscientious. When I got home, they were all well fed, medicated, had been well supervised and very well cared for. I will definitely use Chloe again, and now feel comfortable about being gone from the house, knowing that Chloe will provide the care they need.”


About: Animals have an incredible ability to ease the tension they sense in the ones they love, so in turn I would like to provide a sense of safety and love with each encounter with your pet. Your chosen family is often stronger than the one you are born into, and these animals that we have taken into our homes and hearts show it clearly and consistently. I have worked in an animal hospital for about 2 1/2 years and in my time I learned many tools to create a safe and welcoming environment. I can trim nails, clean ears, brush out matts comfortably and give sanitary haircuts. I was trained to give thorough baths to make pets squeaky clean! I can also administer medication and have taken care of pets who are getting up there in years. I have experience watching 20-30 dogs in a group setting and can walk up to 7 dogs comfortably at a time. I have basic dog training knowledge and I am familiar with animal behavior and how to deescalate potential dangerous situations and soothe an anxious animal. I will soon be going back to school and have a part-time job so my schedule is flexible. I am looking to add walking pet sitting and bathing back into my routine. Written instructions on specifics on how to care for your pets are helpful in making sure your standards of care are being met. Trust is a need not a want when it come to animals, some need easing into meeting a new person and some are all in on the initial meeting, whatever the case forcing a connection is the best way to destroy it. Taking time to bond is something essential to animal caregiving.

“Sabrina is seriously the best, she stayed at my house (she usually does dog boarding) and she left it spotless. She sent me pictures of Nala throughout the day and night and gave me consistent updates. Nala loved hanging out with her and Sabrina took great care of her!”



About: Having worked in a dog shelter and now currently at a animal hospital (which boards cats, dogs, birds, exotics) with different personalities and needs, has really made me appreciate every single animal I meet. Whether they have families or are rescues looking for a forever home, they all deserve love and the best care. My experience with dogs includes caring, cleaning up after, feeding, medicating, walking and jogging , as well as basic commands and training.

About: I’ve been sitting for animals for years and love it. Also dog walking as well. I’ve never met a pet I didn’t like or did not get along with. My family loves when I board dogs and they get to meet a new friend. My children love animals just as much as I do. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and I have a lot of availability. I’m also available for last minute walks or sittings. Your pet is in very good hands when I’m taking care of them. I love to take dogs on walks by the beach and know all the best dog parks. Animals are totally my passion and I love working with them and being able to spend time with so many. I work from home and have a very available schedule. I can pick up and drop off if needed and take your pet to the vet or any grooming appointment. My home is very pet friendly. Pets are allowed to roam and allowed on furniture..I recently moved to an apartment..and have a balcony with a potty area..but take the dogs out often. We go on walks throughout the day as well.
