“Regan was amazing! She made it through really rough weather to take care of my pup while I was away. Communication was smooth and Dexter seemed to really enjoy spending time with her!”
“Marlee was able to step in when our previous cat sitter moved away from the city. We scheduled a walk-through before her first visit to review our cat's needs and felt confident we were in good hands when it was time for us to be away. Marlee sent a bunch of cute photos, as well as details on eating, energy levels, etc. We will definitely be booking Marlee for future visits!”
“There aren’t enough words to express how amazing we think Devin is!!! We hired Devin for the first time over the Christmas break to come to our home and take care of our motley crew of 5 rescue cats, all of whom have their host of quirky issues. Not only was Devin very comfortable caring for them, but he sent us daily updates and pictures. When we arrived back home, all of our furry friends were as happy and relaxed as could be - a clear indication that they had been well cared for in our absence! We highly recommend Devin to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter for their dogs and cats. We will DEFINITELY be using Devin again in the future!!! You are the best Devin! Thank you so much!!!!”
“Brittan is awesome! She made our dogs feel secure while we were away for the holidays. She went above and beyond, walking and playing with them to make sure they were happy. We’re so appreciative!”
“Alyssa is wonderful and treats my pup like her own. I felt so much better on a long trip knowing she was taking good care of him. Plus the pictures and videos proved just that!”
“Jennifer is fantastic. She is so kind, communicative, responsible, and is amazing with our kitty cat. I had a full week of working and events and meetings after work and my husband was traveling. Jennifer came everyday 3 times a day to play with Helen, make sure her food and water were good, clean her litter, and she even brought in packages and signed for them. Just so incredibly helpful. We love Jennifer and cannot recommend her enough!!”
“Great thank you Alex!! I really appreciate the help with energetic Oakley and you keeping me informed on everything he did while you watched him!”
“Molly was awesome with my pup Leo! She was easy to communicate with, came over on short notice, and sent photos and updates during the visit. I certainly feel better leaving the house when I have her booked! Thank you Molly!”
About: I am interning in Arlington for the summer and I have Fridays off. I would love to fill that time walking your dog around the city. I have every Friday off so I am available from 7am to 4pm. This can also be a weekly walk on Fridays as needed for the summer. I am in a dog friendly apartment with an outdoor space. We would spend most of the time outdoors walking in the fresh air around the area.
“Sid was great! Our dog was certainly flustered the first day we were gone and Sid handled it perfectly. The next 4 days were smooth and our dog seemed to be very happy while she was there! We will definitely re-book in the future if Sid is available.”
“Ursula was fantastic!! I have never used a pet sitting service before, so I was quite nervous about having someone I didn't know in my home. During the meet and greet, Ursula instantly put my mind at ease. During our vacation, we got notifications and pictures every day so we could see how the pets were doing. Ursula not only took care of our pets but also grabbed our mail, packages, and put the weekly trash out. She kept everything spotless, and I am thrilled with her services.”
About: I've taken care of dogs (either my own or pet-sitting) for the past 15 years. I have had many friends and family members rely on me to keep their pets fed, walked, played with, and loved while they are out! I also have experience with senior dogs, giving medication etc. My work schedule is fairly flexible, so it's super easy for me to fit pet care into my daily/weekly routines! I keep my home clean and safe for pups to venture around. I will send lots of pictures so you know your pet is happy and well taken care of. I have a fairly flexible full time job where I am able to work from home as needed. Additionally, when I need to be in person it is usually only for a few hours maximum. So I have plenty of time to be playing with and caring for your pups! I live in a very walkable neighborhood with lots of great spots for fur babies to use the bathroom and get their exercise in! I spend a lot of time after initial drop off trying to make your pet as comfortable and relaxed as possible! I'll also send you lots of pictures to alleviate some of the stress of leaving your pup with someone else. I spend a lot of time giving the pets I care for the same love and attention they would receive at home.
“Katie was so great with our cat Hiro. We loved all the updates and pictures. We felt completely at ease leaving our cat with her and she even left her a new toy! Thank you Katie!”
“Jesse was wonderful with my kitties! She made sure to send photos every day and was communicative in her daily notes! 10/10 would book again 😊”
About: Hello! My name is Riley and I, like many others on this platform, am a lover of dogs of all shapes and sizes! I grew up with dogs in my home for my entire life and as an adult have taken care of dogs for my neighbors, family, and friends. I have a dog of my own, Snowy (5 y/o Husky mix) who I love running and playing with every day. I am a long distance runner and can run and play with more active dogs or take nice, leisurely strolls with more relaxed pups. I really love larger breed dogs but feel comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I currently work from home full time, so I can take your pup in for day care or boarding if you’re comfortable with them hanging out with my dog, or can pop by your place for a walk or run during my lunch breaks! I'm also happy to stay at your place if you are comfortable with my pup coming along with me and staying in your home. Let me know what works best for you and your furry friend, and let’s set up a meet and greet! I have one very friendly and active pup, Snowy, who will love to play with your fur baby! If I’m caring for your pet during the day or boarding your pup, I will not being having any other pets aside from my own in the home unless discussed with you beforehand. I do have a small fenced in back yard. I’m also happy to bring your pup to our local dog park if that is something you’re comfortable with!
“Alyssa was so great! I went out of town for a few days and had her drop in on my rabbit twice a day. He was so happy with her and she left great notes and pictures. 5-stars! Thank you Alyssa :)”
“Julie was great. Very conscientious and proactive. Our cats hide from strangers but Julie sought them out and tried to get them to be less fearful. We would definitely book with her again.”
About: Since I was six years old, I have always had at least one family dog. I spend some weekends watching my siblings dogs and cats, which I absolutely love. I currently work a full time job 4 days per week. I have off Wednesdays! I enjoy going on walks and being outside, so this is a great opportunity to make money while doing so. I do not care for pets in my own home, but I am willing to come into your home. I have years of experience of caring for pets.

“Rochelle is fantastic! She takes excellent care of our two cats when we travel. It is clear from her thorough updates and photos that she truly cares about cats and enjoys spending time with them. She is our sitter of choice.”

15. Riley F.
“Riley has dog sat for me dozens of times. Work requires me to travel quite a bit and it’s always so reassuring to have my dog stay with someone I can trust while knowing my dog will have a great time. I’m very cautious and weary with who watches my dog, and she absolutely loves Riley. I always appreciate the peace of mind while I’m traveling for work or on vacation (and feel less guilty that I’m away). Riley would send regular photos, take her on walks and runs, and all sorts of fun things.”

She is very trusting in your house and around your pets, animals are a big part of her heart, and she knows how to handle animals on a leash even multiple at once. Lauryn is also very personable and professional upon meeting.”
