“Sean did a great job watching our fur babies. He was very communicative during the entire process and shared consistent updates on our dog and cat while we were away. I really appreciated his attention to detail (ie: he looked ahead at the weather forecast and saw that it would be rainy, so he asked me in advance where he could find a towel to dry our dog off if she had to go out in the rain) and his questions he asked ahead of time made me feel confident that they would be well taken care of and they were! We will definitely use Sean again!”


About: I’ve always had dogs growing up in the house, but I needed one of my own when I was seven, which is why I proclaim fifteen years of experience. When I was five, I called myself the dog whisperer, and I’m bringing back the title because I think it still fits! Since middle school, I have pet sat for many family friends and neighbors, and I always get along great with the animals! I’m going to school to become a therapist, but if dog therapists were a thing, I would change career paths. Please let me hang with your pets - I don’t have any pets anymore and I miss doggos! I work M-F from 9-5, but get out early some days and can visit the pets on my lunch. Other than that, I can be free as needed! I’m happy to spend as much time with the pets as is preferred. I will house sit or dog walk, but I cannot host them! I will of course follow any instructions left and be very respectful of the space, while making sure your pets have the best time!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been caring for pets since I was 11. I’ve pet sat for family, friends, and neighbors since I was 14. I have volunteered at the SPCA (animal shelter) since I was 16. I now lead my college dog walking/shelter volunteering club (STEP) as vice president, and truly love caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities! I’m a college student with a completely open and flexible schedule this summer! I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop ins, pet sitting, and can accept last minute bookings. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely live for, so I love making pet care part of my daily routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I’m attentive and patient, while also extremely well versed with dogs of all different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I treat every dog like my own babies!

About: I’m a veterinarian with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages and needs. I studied at the University of Florida and went on to complete a rotating specialty internship at Cornell, where I gained advanced training in emergency and specialty care. I’m currently in an ophthalmology specialty training program, so I’m especially attentive to subtle changes in pets’ comfort, vision, and overall health. I truly love working with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog needing a little extra patience, or a pet with medical needs, I provide thoughtful, attentive, and safe care. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring ongoing conditions, and recognizing early signs of illness-giving you extra peace of mind while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your pets, and I’m committed to clear communication, reliability, and making sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for at all times. I work full-time as a veterinary ophthalmology specialty trainee from 8am–5pm on weekdays. Outside of those hours, I’m fully available and very attentive to the pets in my care. I’m available for evenings, overnight stays, and weekends, and I’m happy to provide consistent care for multi-day bookings. Because of my veterinary background and over 10 years of experience, I’m comfortable managing pets with a wide range of needs and ensuring they’re closely monitored when I’m with them. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m trained to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond appropriately. I’m comfortable administering medications, other treatments, and caring for pets with medical needs. In your home, I strive to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and will follow all care instructions closely. I also prioritize clear communication, providing regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.
“Lucas went above and beyond taking care of my dogs for a full week, on a last minute schedule. Do not hesitate to book, he will really make sure your babies are treated as his own.”

“Ann has always been great with my girls! She watched them a few years ago and has recently returned to keep them again. We will definitely continue using her! She always communicates and sends pictures often!”

“Alex did a fabulous job with our very picky kitty! Very responsive and incredibly helpful with our many requests! Thank you so much for everything Alex and we can’t wait to have you take care of Zelda again!”

“Alex is a fantastic pet sitter. The instructions for my senior cat can be a bit complicated - Alex took care of her and our golden retriever so well. Highly recommend. She left our house the way we left it, was very communicative, and trustworthy person.”

“I have never left my dog with a sitter before, so I was a little nervous, but Kaitlynn and Buttercup got along so well and she exceeded my expectations! Daily pictures and updates soothed my worries, and Buttercup was happy and in good spirits when I got home. I absolutely recommend Kaitlynn for your dog sitting needs!”


“Dirk was fantastic. I just got home and both pets were excited, happy, and taken care of. We’ve had issues in the past with sitters but Dirk was communicative and helpful when it came to caring for our pets.”

“Marlena did a great job taking care of our dog and cat while we were away! She was timely, nice, and sent detailed updates every morning with pictures and videos. We didn't worry once while we were away. We would definitely hire Marlena again!”

“Ashley did a great job watching our pups. Communication was fantastic… pics and texts, as we’d discussed up front. She even checked on our chickens when the weather became unseasonably warm! Thanks Ashley!”


“Jacqueline was great! She provided updates and pictures on a daily basis of my dog. I could tell he was having a fantastic time with her and was being loved on. He was ridiculously excited to see her again when she stopped by the next day to pick up something she forget.”

“Brianna was so incredibly attentive to both our cat and dogs needs. Very communicative and kept us up to date on how they were doing throughout the weekend. Would absolutely recommend Brianna to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter!”


“Adam was fantastic with my pups! Adam was very communicative, he was able to give my big guy his meds, spent plenty of time with them, and took them for walks! He kept me updated through his stay which I appreciated greatly. Highly recommend Adam and I will definitely book him again in the future!”

“Blair stayed in our home and watched our two sister kitties for 4 nights/5 days. Prior to her stay, she was an excellent communicator and asked lots of good questions. During the visit, she kept in regular contact, sending photos and updates, and left the house in great shape. I appreciate that this is Blair's profession, and she takes this work seriously. I would happily book her again and highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
