“Gave him 5 stars because the app won’t let me give him 10 ⭐️! Communicates frequently, took of my our high energy dog, and kept the house clean!!! Jeffrey was the best dog watcher we’ve had!”

“Imani is fantastic. Completely trustworthy. Cared for our three dogs and pet hamster, with dogs sizes ranging from 15 - 80 pounds. She kept us up to date with photos each day and kept our outdoor plants alive during a hot week. House was immaculate after a week away and all pets were happy and well cared for. Can’t recommend Imani enough.”

“Roxanne was great staying with my 2 dogs. Roxanne took very good care of them. They seemed to really like her. When we returned they were very happy. So sent updates and pictures. I really felt they were in good hands. Thanks!”

“Cole was spectacular with our older basset hounds. He was able to get both of them on walks (not easy with one being a little grumpy with new people). Both dogs while happy to see us, didn’t seem like they had been stressed while we were away- a big improvement for us! Cole also kept our home on great order, dealt with a clogged sink, and even watered my plants (without me asking!). We can’t wait to use him again for future times away- the boys seemed to enjoy his presence.”

“Laura was absolutely awesome! Laura truly was the best! She took the very beat care of our home and dogs. Our dogs (who are a bit needy and one special needs) had a smooth and seamless transition into her care. She was thought forward, kind, caring, diligent and followed all our dogs care needs and schedule perfectly. She treated our pups and our home as her own and we are so GRATEFUL! We feel so blessed to have met her and to have her care for our beloved dogs. We were very impressed & our dogs were never so calm upon our return ever. She is wonderful and comes highly recommended and we definitely hope to use her again.”

“Michael was awesome. I was able to book him in a pinch after another sitter had to cancel. He is calm, experienced, and Porter was well cared for while we were gone. He communicated with me daily 2-3x day, asked questions if they came up and dealt with a power outage that lasted about 20 hours. It rained a large part of the time we were gone and he diligently walked Porter in the rain. When we got home everything was in order. Dog towels were washed and the house was as we left it. We have used him in the past and will continue to use his services in the future for our dog. We were out of the country and knowing we had a responsible and capable dog sitter was essential.”

About: I have had dogs since I was a kid and have walked dogs and pet sat through high school and college. I am excited to meet your pups! I am home for the summer before I start a full-time job. I have tons of dog walking availability between studying for the LSAT and I am super flexible! I am happy to feed, walk, crate, and play with your pups while you’re away. I love long walks and can follow any directions you leave me.
“Bill was absolutely outstanding. He stayed at our place while we’re out of the country for a little over a week. He took incredible care of our two golden retrievers and sent many updates and pictures of them. He was prompt and took great care of our house while we were away. We will definitely be booking Bill again for his services!”

“Very reliable and accommodating. Bogey happy and healthy when we got home, and was excited to see Wayne the following day when he came by to drop off our key. We felt very comfortable leaving our (quite needy), nearly 10 yr old dog in Wayne’s care. Won’t hesitate to request him again!”

“Joanna is a Godsend! We have booked with her for multiple walks as well as a week-long period of overnight stays while we were out of town, and she is absolutely wonderful. She took such great care of our pug, Tootsie, and I had complete peace of mind while we were away. She was very attentive to Tootsie’s routine, feeding and exercise needs, and she was great about sending regular updates, photos and videos. Her dog, Henry, who accompanied her on the overnight stays, was SO sweet and cute, and he got along great with our dog as well. In addition to being a 5-star pet sitter, Joanna is just a sweet, wonderful person in general and extremely accomplished as well, so she’s just a joy to know and so interesting to talk to! Highly recommend and we would request her services 100 times over :o)”

“Paz did a wonderful job sitting my dog at my house while I was away. She texted me with photos about twice a day, and asked me some questions that she wanted to know. I already booked her for another trip I'm going on this winter. I have no complaints at all about her care for my dog.”


“Elizabeth is great! We have two needy pets, including an old, anxious dog with mobility issues and other special needs. Elizabeth was perfect with administering medications and and keeping up with regular physical therapy exercises. We came home to a clean house and two well cared for (though possibly disappointed Elizabeth was gone) pets. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth if you need someone to watch pets in your home.”

About: Of course I love animals, but what matters more to me is noticing who your pet actually is. Are they the kind of dog who needs to sniff the same corner for five minutes before moving on? Are they a little shy at first and pretending not to care? Do they get excited easily and need someone calm around them? Are they a cat who wants company, but absolutely not too much company? I really enjoy figuring out those little things. I’m gentle, patient, and very respectful of each pet’s routine. I don’t believe in rushing them or treating every animal the same. Some pets need play and attention, some need slow walks and quiet reassurance, and some just need someone kind nearby so the house does not feel empty. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that still feels familiar to them. I’m also very careful with instructions. Feeding routines, medications, walk preferences, favorite toys, things that scare them, how they like to be greeted, whether they are allowed on the couch. I want to know all of it. I know these details are not “extra.” They are usually the things that make a pet feel secure. I’ll also send updates and photos, not just to say everything is fine, but so you can actually feel connected to them while you are away. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, may also help me sometimes, and you may see her in some of my photos. She has had pets since childhood and fostered animals for several years, so she is very used to different personalities, nervous pets, affectionate pets, and animals who need a little extra patience. She is calm, loving, and very responsible, and I trust her completely with animals. Between the two of us, your pet will be cared for by people who genuinely like being around animals, but who also understand that trust matters. I’ll treat your pet with warmth, patience, and care, and I’ll treat your home and instructions with respect. This year, much of my work is remote, which gives me real flexibility in my schedule. That means I’m able to spend unrushed, attentive time with pets, not just quick check-ins, but actual companionship, care, and presence. I can shape my day around walks, visits, feeding times, play, and quiet company, depending on what each pet needs. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, who is included in the pictures, also helps me out with my Rover schedules. My home is my cat Lilo’s safe little kingdom, so I can’t host other pets here. But I’m very happy to come to your home, meet outside for walks, or figure out a setup that feels easy and comfortable for you and your pet.
“This is the 2nd time Summer has dog sat for me in my home. She’s proactive, quick to communicate and is comfortable with my somewhat reactive but loving pup. I’ve booked her for 2 more trips.”


“We cannot recommend Adam enough as a house/dog sitter. It is always so hard to find someone trustworthy enough to stay in our home and take care of our amazing boy. Adam was communicative, trustworthy, and reliable allowing for us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that our pup was safe. We have a 2 year old doberman who is not always the quickest to warm up to people, however he took to Adam quickly and truly enjoy his stay with him. In addition, the house was in excellent condition when we returned and Loki was happy and well exercised. Will absolutely book Adam again for future sitting opportunities and strongly recommend him to sit your pup.”

“Raquel is a delight. She is warm and responsible. Listens carefully to all instructions for watching your beloved pet and follows through. I recommend her without reservation!!”

“Yujie is so kind and caring, and took such great care of our animals and our house while we were away. Our dog can be anxious with new people, but she felt comfortable with Yujie right away and was also so calm and happy when we returned from our trip as well! So glad to have found Yujie and we look forward to booking her again :)”

Eva came through for us at the last minute when we had to travel unexpectedly for a family emergency. Our dog absolutely loved her from the moment they met and we felt reassured that she was in good hands with Eva throughout the trip. Eva gave her lots of love, reassurance, snuggles, and care while we were gone, even asking about our dogs preferences while we were away to make sure our pup had everything she needs. We would definitely book Eva again in the future and highly recommend!

This was our second time having Roxanne stay with our dogs while we were away on a week + long trip. She sent us updates every day and we felt so fortunate to have peace of mind while traveling that we didn’t have to worry about our dogs. She took great care of them and of our home.

Kathy was great with our boy Roadie. He is a rescue and has some fear. She saw this right away and won him over so quickly. She went outside with him every time he went out even though our yard is fenced in and she never left him alone. They became best buddies in no time. It was such a relief to have her at our home to take care of him. It was also nice of her to clean up!

Kevin is an incredibly warm-hearted and caring person! We hired him to stay with our 10 year old dog and 6 year old cat in our home for 5 nights. Our dog is not an easy customer. She’s quite anxious and she generally distrusts all strangers, but Kevin was able to win over her heart and shower her with love and affection! He sent pictures and videos each day, and we were so comforted to know our pets were happy and thriving under his care and feeling safe in the familiar surroundings of their own home. Kevin took excellent care of our pets and the house, and we would absolutely hire him again in the future!

Gunnar was great! We were relieved to find someone who was comfortable with our two Newfoundland dogs. They are low maintenance this time of year but it takes a certain person to see past the slobber and hair to the gentle giants they are. Gunnar came to meet the dogs and see our house before our trip. He checked in regularly and proactively communicated with us while we were out of town. We would absolutely book with Gunnar again if the opportunity arises! Thank you, Gunnar!
