“Jade was an excellent sitter for our frenchie, Annie. She was very attentive to her needs and provided great company for our girl. Jade took great care of our home while we were away & provided plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day. Annie enjoyed her time in her home with Jade and is looking forward to her next visit ! :)”

“Natasha was great with our Husky! She always replied in a timely manner and our pup seemed to really like her. The amount of pictures and updates that she shared with us was perfect. Definitely recommend!”

“Gordon was really great with Asher and he kept me updated daily with messages along with some pictures/videos of their time together. I’d certainly welcome him to care for my senior canine kid again; highly recommended to others! Five Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


“Marli did an amazing job watching my two cats while I was out of the country for a week. It is clear that she is a cat lover and enjoyed spending time with them. I wanted someone who would play with my cats and give them affection while I’m gone, not just feed them, and Marli did just that! I could tell from the daily photos she sent me that both my girls were very happy. I came back home to two cats who barely missed me because they had so much fun with Marli.”

“Khoula (Jeremy’s wife) is great!!! Milo adores her and he’s always so happy after he’s spent time with her. she sends lovely little updates of our pup! She’s flexible and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend her and am always going to come back :) 13/10!!!”

“Molly and her husband were great, they took care of our two dogs while we were away for a few days and made sure they were pampered and stayed healthy. They also left our place clean and went the extra mile to get our puppy some extra food when he ran out of it. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 5 years old, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I genuinely consider myself a dog whisperer- dogs tend to gravitate towards me, even the shy and anxious ones. Over the years, I’ve cared for dog of all sizes and energy levels, and I pride myself on creating a calm, nurturing and loving environment where they feel happy and safe. Whether it’s a walk, playtime or just quiet companionship, I tune into each dog’s unique personality and needs. I work a 9-5 hybrid job, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet care in the evenings and on the weekends. This works well for pet parents heading out for dinner, date nights, or weekend getaways. I’m reliable, responsive and always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. My Shih-poo is my pride and joy - he goes everywhere with me, even in the office! I treat him like a member of the family, and I extend that same love and care to every pet. I maintain a calm, clean and pet friendly environment, where animals feel safe and loved. I’ve even trained my pup to use communication buttons and speak to him in full sentences! So I’m very tuned into a dog’s needs and emotions whether it’s playtime, cuddles or companionship and make sure each dog feels right at home.
“Jestine was amazing! She took such good care of Stubs and the house and gave updates throughout the stay. Jestine is so thoughtful and sweet and truly understands the needs of animals. Highly recommend and will be booking her for future stays. Thanks!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of personalized care I give to every pet—whether it’s teaching a curious puppy the basics, keeping a senior pet comfortable and happy, or making sure shy animals feel safe and loved. With me, your pet gets more than just supervision—they get patience, attention, and a whole lot of tail wags. Even with a full-time job, pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I plan my mornings and evenings around feeding, walks, and playtime, and I dedicate my weekends to extra bonding activities, training, and outdoor adventures. I keep a reliable schedule so pets always know what to expect, and I make sure they get consistent love and attention no matter how busy the day gets. I provide safe, loving, and consistent care—whether in my home or yours. I follow your pet’s routine, ensure fresh water, timely meals, exercise, and plenty of affection so they feel happy and secure.
“Jamie is an absolute blessing!! I booked her last minute because another sitter backed out. She stayed at my house for 4 days to watch my yorkiepoo. She was unbelievably professional and gave me updates throughout the day. The house was left in immaculate shape. I’m definitely going to be a regular!!!”

“Cherese took excellent care of my two dogs. I worry a lot about my westie as he has Addison’s disease and requires a daily pill. I was hoping being in his home environment would make him less stressed while we were away for the week. My mini golden doodle can be high energy as well. She took them on daily walks and even to Branchbrook park to see the cherry blossoms. While the dogs were excited to see us when we got home they also showed their affection for her when she left and it was great to see how much they liked her.”

About: Our Why? We have Huskies, and while still offering our service to other breeds, we highlight that it takes a fellow Husky owner to understand what a Husky needs. Despite their mischievous shenanigans, Houdini escape attempts, endless fur-sheddings, high-pitched vocalizations, bubbly, energized personalities, and hyperactive frolicking, we adore huskies. We understand finding experienced, dependable, loving, and trustworthy caregivers for your Husky isn't easy. That's why we are here to help. We currently have two friendly young huskies (one male and one female- fixed and crate-trained). We also have experience with English bulldogs, Sharpeis, Chow-Chows, Labs, Doodles, and Boxers. We only offer care for dogs based upon the comfortability of the match to our pet-care style and demeanor. We love our pets as we will love yours. We are focused on weekends, holidays, and summer care. We are open to possible weekday arrangements if your dog is crate-trained. Before booking us, a drop-by visit is required to test the compatibility of all humans and dogs. A few things: Special note-while we have never owned a French bulldog, we are particularly interested in learning to care for this breed. Your pet must be spayed or nurtured to receive boarding in our home. Also, we are sorry but we cannot offer care for full or mixed Pit Bull breeds. How does pet care fit into your daily and weekly lives? Our pets receive two meals a day, comprising dry food and water. Our pets are crate-trained and remain crated when owners are away. Most of the time, there is an adult in the house. Our dogs can access a large fenced backyard with green grass and trees. Our dogs walk with owners through nearby Branch Brooke Park and visit the dog park almost daily. Our dogs are crated during adult meal times and sleep in the main bedroom on the floor, side couch, or end of bed at night. We maintain a clean home and provide puppy pads during inclement weather to avoid mud and chaos. Pets have access to some rooms, but not all rooms in the house. Toys and treats are provided regularly. Linens on beds where animals may sleep are washed and switched out regularly. Our gate is blocked off on both sides because huskies are known for escaping. Our pets have ID collars and ID dog tags and wear GPS trackers during the day. Our dogs are up-to-date on immunizations and have been spayed/neutered. We don't hit our dogs with our hands or objects but use basic word commands. Training dogs is always a work in progress. They are both loved for their uniqueness. We only plan to care for pets in our home. We have a large and welcoming home.

About: I always take into account the priorities of the dog owner to ensure that I give the best care to their dog! I want to provide the best care! I am currently in grad school full time and not working, so this will be my only other priority. I can be flexible as long as I have a day's worth of notice I ask detailed questions in order to ensure that I take care of the pets as per the owner's request. That way both of us are on the same page.
“Amazing pet sitter! Will definitely book again. Treats your fur babies just like her own. So thankful for Koryn and all her help, even when it was last minute.”

Cassie was such a great sitter, our dogs really loved her and she rolled with the punches of our living situation well! We recently moved across the country and the dogs are still acclimating, she was so patient and sweet with them. Will definitely request her help again in the future!

Khoula (Jeremy’s wife) is great!!! Milo adores her and he’s always so happy after he’s spent time with her. she sends lovely little updates of our pup! She’s flexible and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend her and am always going to come back :) 13/10!!!

Siara delivered consistent communication through pictures and videos. I was worried to leave my Milo as I never have been away, especially for a week, but Siara truly calmed my nerves. Milo got lots of love and attention while I was away, through tummy rubs and play time. I also appreciate her gesture to watch Milo for an extra day etc. in case my flight was delayed as there were storms in EWR. Will 100% be my “go to” when away in the future. Myself,Joe, and Milo thank you so much ❤️

This was our first time booking with Milena and our first time booking an overnight sitter for our pets, so we were just a little anxious. Over the course of the weekend, all our nerves were calmed; Milena was great. She communicated well, sent pictures, and heeded all of our instructions and requests. We had done a meet and greet with her before the weekend, so we knew our pets were comfortable with her, and they seemed very happy to have her company. When we returned, the house was in perfect shape. We will definitely book with her again.

After having last minute travel plans come up, finding Riley to house and pet sit was a huge blessing! I liked her instantly but most importantly, my pets loved her instantly. She is loving, and attentive and communicates regularly. She took care of my plants as well and took great care of the house. Left everything neat and tidy. I'll definitely rebook her for all my future sitting needs. She's truly an excellent sitter. A million thanks Riley!!

I booked Rachel last minute, and she was quick to respond. She’s incredibly responsible, respectful of our home, and, most importantly, she was so sweet with my puppy, Oliver. She sent updates and pictures throughout the day, and he looked so happy. I’ll absolutely be booking her again whenever I need a sitter for Oliver! Highly recommend!

Natasha was not only great with our dog Bruce but also a respectful house guest. She sent images of Bruce that kept us smiling while we were on our vacation, and we knew he was having a good time with her. I think she gave Bruce more walks and quality time than we’re usually able to give - so we hope to have her stay next time we’re out of town, too.

Keith was wonderful at accommodating our last minute weekend house sitting request. It was our first time being away from our pup after only 3 weeks of ownership. We explained the situation to Keith, and he came over for a meet and greet. Our dog took to him right away and put our mind at ease. Keith is personable, respectful and a clear dog lover. We look forward to booking with him again.

Cherese took excellent care of my two dogs. I worry a lot about my westie as he has Addison’s disease and requires a daily pill. I was hoping being in his home environment would make him less stressed while we were away for the week. My mini golden doodle can be high energy as well. She took them on daily walks and even to Branchbrook park to see the cherry blossoms. While the dogs were excited to see us when we got home they also showed their affection for her when she left and it was great to see how much they liked her.

Abi is fantastic! She cared for our pets and home as if they were her own. She took our dog on a walk on the snowy forest trails everyday and sent us a pet update with photos each evening. She even offered to buy crickets for our lizard and left a really nice gift for our pup. The bed was stripped, blankets folded, and the house was tidy. You can't ask for a more perfect sitter.

We recently hired Natasha when we travelled for Thanksgiving. Our poodle is 15 and we don’t like to leave him. She made us feel very at ease from the start of meeting her. She communicated throughout everyday including pictures. She even asked us on our trip back home if our flight was late she would adjust her schedule to make sure we had coverage. Something we didn’t even think about. Our house was cleaner then when we left. She handled everything and we are grateful we found her. We would recommend her for your fur babies anytime.
