“Vera was a great sitter to sesame. She was extremely thorough, asked questions and very caring to sesame especially when it comes to his anxiety. Sesame seemed to get comfortable around Vera very quickly. Definitely recommend Vera”

Linyan went above and beyond to make sure pebbles was well taken care of and sent PLENTY of pictures and videos. She was phenomenal and I didn’t have to worry about pebbles comfort ability or safety once throughout the day. she also knows that pebble is a high energy dog and walked her the appropriate amount of time even in this cold out of control!!!.”

About: Hi! My name is Serena, and I’ve always loved spending time with animals. I’ve grown up around dogs and enjoy taking them for walks, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and cared for. I also used to work a pet store that really taught me a lot. I currently have 2 of my own named Pepper and Leo. Pepper is a Havanese who is a playful friendly little girl and Leo is a Havapoo who is a ball of friendly energy who loves to cuddle but is scared of his own shadow lol. I really enjoy watching them play and enjoy how different their personalities are. 🙂I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like my very own. I’m excited to help pet owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands while they’re away because I know how scary it can be to leave your fur babies with a new person. Can’t wait to meet you and your babies! 🥰🥰 I am currently home FULL TIME and am able to work around your needs schedule wise, so taking care of your fur babies fits in perfectly to my life and I am excited to do so ☺️ In my home, I keep a clean, safe space and follow each pet’s feeding, potty, and play routine. I give plenty of attention, supervision, and comfort so they feel at home and I also have 2 dogs of my own that would love to play and keep clients pets company In a client’s home, I stick to their normal schedule, provide walks, fresh food and water, playtime, and updates. I always respect the home as I do my own and follow all care instructions.
About: I’ve trained puppies and have flexible morning and afternoon hours for dog walking and also available for house boarding if needed. Can take them out frequently as well, since will be at home all day. Transitioning from graduate school, flexible hours, can be home all day to take care of them, take them out for multiple walks or spend the day with them at their place. I love animals, I treat all animals with the same love I’ve always taken care of our golden retriever back home. They will not be in better hands. I can provide pictures during the day if wanted.
About: We’ve both grown up with pets in the family, and once we moved to the city, we both started pet sitting and walking for our neighbors. We have experience with senior pets, administering medication, and special need pets. Your baby is safe with us! We both work hybrid in the city, making it easy for us to adjust our schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s both of us or just one, we can assure you your baby will be accompanied at all times! Whatever you need from us for your pets, you got it! If you need us to crate your dog, leave and pick up keys with a doorman, turn heaters on/off, etc. for your fur baby, nothing is too big of an ask. We’ll always share lots of pics too for you to feel comfortable!

“Rob is simply amazing. I can’t imagine anyone better than Rob for Wendy’s (our dog) first daycare experience and we’re looking forward to becoming one of Rob’s repeat clients. Shortly after booking, Rob reached out to sort out the details. It becomes obvious right away that Rob is extremely experienced with dogs, and genuinely enjoys making sure they have the best day ever. Wendy was soo happy when I picked her up and no doubt was well exercised as Rob took her out to walks, and plays. Besides the amazing day Wendy had, Rob ensures the humans are updated throughout the day. Rob sent me several photos of Wendy and explained what they’ve been up to, which was reasuring and gave us confidence as this was our first daycare experience. I should also note, Rob is one of the nicest people I ever met! Thank you so much Rob, we’re so lucky to have met you!”
“Antoniette was really good and took care of our puppy very well. She sent us some pictures to see how Trufa (our dog) was doing. Trufa was calm and happy to stay with her. Also, Antoniette was very flexible and friendly. Thanks for your service! Really appreciated”
“Janet & Spencer are so sweet and took such great care of Rosa! They made sure she was comfortable and all her needs were met. She had a wonderful time with them!”
“Coco was absolutely amazing with Aston! She sent me so many photos and updates throughout the day, which made me feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well cared for. Her dog Mathilda is the cutest, and she and Aston became new best friends haha. Coco is truly the best, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone loving and trustworthy to care for their baby!!”
“Great dog sitter! Very caring, reliable, and attentive. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with you. I really appreciate your patience and the love you showed him—especially since he can be a bit anxious. Definitely would book again! Thank you so much!”
“Chandni was amazing with Pistacho! She made sure he felt comfortable and loved from the start, and she kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. Chandni truly went above and beyond to provide him with the best care and the coziest space. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who genuinely loves and cares for pets. 💕”

Jocelyn was super communicative throughout planning our meet & greet and during our pup, Mo’s stay! She asked all the right questions, made sure Mo always had company due to his separation anxiety, and sent some cute pics ☺️ I wish he played with her pup, Nugget, but they seemed to coexist very well together! Def recommend her services 🫶🏼
This was our third visit 🥰🐾 Anky has been a blessing to our family as we have welcomed our first grandson 🙏♥️. Anky was so flexible with our last minute requests. She made this exciting time in our lives relaxing and joyful as we knew our pups were well cared for. They enjoyed her and when I say her name they perk up their ears. They and we now have a friend in Anky. ♥️🐾♥️🐾
Mary was fantastic with my dog, Margot! She kept me updated throughout the stay with plenty of photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. She made sure Margot got regular walks, lots of attention, and plenty of affection. Margot can be a bit anxious at times, and Mary was incredibly patient and caring, helping her feel comfortable and secure. I could tell Margot was in great hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Mary again. Highly recommend!
This was the absolute first time I had ever left my dogs with a dog sitter, so I was naturally very anxious. Fortunately, I found someone truly extraordinary, empathetic, and super professional. From the very first moment, they managed to make them feel completely at ease. My dogs had an amazing time, were happy, and I was able to relax completely thanks to the constant updates and photos I received. I couldn't have asked for a better experience for their very first stay. I highly recommend them ♡
Deirdre was absolutely wonderful! She was super communicative and warm, and our dog loved her right away. It was clear she was great with her and really cared about making her comfortable. We felt totally at ease knowing our pup was in such good hands :) We’d 100% book with Deirdre again and highly recommend her!
Mari is sweet, caring, punctual, easy to work with and took incredible care of my pup. There were so many adorable photos of Cordelia throughout the day and best of all was Mari’s reliability and punctuality that made my drop off and pick up a breeze. I could tell my dog was relaxed and happy spending time with her. Highly recommend Mari as human and pup sitter!
Lily Beth was an amazing sitter!! Dash clearly felt immediately comfortable with her and came back happy and relaxed after his stay. She sent such cute photos and frequent updates that really put me at ease. Would happily recommend her and am sure Dash can’t wait to see her again! :)
Kevin took care of our dog Kona for the day and he did a fantastic job. He sent many pics and video updates, took her on multiple walks, played with her, and gave her a lot of attention. He really made an effort to connect with her and get to know her. Kevin was very responsive, was reliable and communicated well. We will definitely book him again! Thank you, Kevin!
Sandy was a great communicator and clearly cares so much about the pets she takes care of! We received so many hilarious and adorable photos/videos of Kiwi throughout his stay, and it was obvious he was in great hands and having a wonderful time. Her home was also beautiful and felt like such a comfortable environment for him. Thank you, Sandy, for taking such great care of Kiwi, we’d love to have you watch him again in the future :) We’ll make sure he’s a little more motivated to go outside next time 😂 Thanks again for your patience!
