“Karen was amazing! She was very attentive and a great communicator. She kept us informed about the pups regularly and provided photos. Our little pack welcomed her with open paws. She took great care of our fur babies and our home. We will definitely have her take care of our pups next time we are out of town.”
“Nick did an amazing job taking care of our pups! The pups LOVED him and were a little sad that he had to leave 🤣. Hope to be able to have Nick visit again in the future!”
“Devona is simply the best! She goes out of her way to do all the extras. Devona is thorough, kind, attentive, and is a great communicator. One of the best feelings while you’re away is having peace of mind, and we always have that when Devona is helping. Thank you Devona!”
“Juli is the best! She writes beautiful diaries about my Lui and Maple’s day. You can see she takes great pride in her work. She also takes amazing pictures and videos. I’m really grateful for her.”
“We just got back from our cruise and I LOVE the peace of mind I had with Susan watching my babies. She was the first person I left them with (senior dog and 2 kitties) that wasn't family but she feels like family now. She has a way of communicating with animals and meeting their needs that is second to none. I got regular updates and pictures and couldn't be happier. I highly recommend Susan for your fur babies, you won't be sorry!”
“Jonathan has a clear love for animals and he did a tremendous job with our dog and cat. Great updates, very timely and house was spotless. Would highly recommend, in fact, we are already hiring him for a second job in a few weeks!!!!”
“Taylor was wonderful with my pups. Sending me updates & pictures. She was so flexible with us & our plans. My pups loved her & her cuddles. My little pup is scared of thunder and she comforted him and snuggled him to help him through the brief storm. I can’t say enough good things about her. My grand pup was with us this time and he has anxiety issues and she was able to keep him calm & happy . Thank You Taylor for such a great experience.”
“Jessica was SO amazing! She really took the time and care to learn the needs of our animals and went above and beyond in the services she provided. She took the time to get to know our pets and they loved her! Will definitely book with her again!”
“Thanya took great care of Tuco and the house. She is very responsive and sent updates twice a day. With her knowledge and experience with animals I felt very comfortable leaving Tuco in her care.”
About: I specialize in behavioral therapy and have a degree in pre-med Psychology. I am a compassionate student who takes pride in her ability to care for a multitude of animals. I am always looking for ways to improve the lives of our others, and I understand that it can be difficult to balance personal wellness with that of our pets. I hope to meet you and your furry friend soon! I’m currently flexible with my academic schedule, as I don’t start internships for another year; so, I am available around the clock Monday-Friday at this time! I do prefer that you reach out at least 24 hours in advance if possible so I can ensure I complete the day’s tasks. :) I unfortunately cannot provide care to your furry friend in my home due to leasing policies; however, I will ensure that they are well taken care of in your home or walking environment.
“Colleen did an amazing job caring for our 2 cats and house for almost 2 weeks! Also, she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind. We came home to happy cats and a spotless house. We will definitely be booking with Colleen again!”
“Kaley was so good to my Murphy boy! Updated me throughout the day constantly with pictures, I love how I didn’t even have to ask for that. She stayed in my home with Murphy and had everything the way I left it when I got back home. Kaley will be my preferred pet sitter from now on!”
“Kaia was wonderful with my pitbull Guillermo. He took to her immediately and loved his time with her. Guillermo can sometimes refuse to eat when he is upset and he had no issues with Kaia. She even made sure to put on his glowing collar for his walk after dark. Highly recommend and will be booking many overnight stays in my home with Kaia.”
“Gabrielle was wonderful! Our Dog Liberty had so much fun with her, she even got her to walk on her leash and walks without pulling, which we can never do, so not only did she do a great job walking and taking care of her, she was teaching/training her as well! We got tons of pics and videos and updates and she left our house nice and clean when she was done! We will definitely be using her again and trust her anytime with our pup!”

About: Hi, I'm Mariia! I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. House sitting includes full daily care, feeding, walks, and plenty of attention. Drop-in visits cover feeding, litter, playtime, and a photo update so you know everything is well. I've cared for pets my whole life. I grew up with cats and a Whippet, raised kittens from 3 months old, and have ongoing experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments, including a reactive dog, a Sphynx cat with special grooming needs, a senior dog, and multi-pet households. I'm comfortable with medication administration and ear cleaning. I work from home and have flexible availability throughout the day, including evenings, weekends, overnight stays, and holidays. I'm independent with no conflicting obligations, so I can accommodate last-minute requests and extended stays. I follow your routines and house rules to the letter, keep your home exactly as I found it, and send regular photo updates so you can actually relax. Every pet gets individual attention, because to me, that's the whole point. I work from home and have genuine flexibility throughout the day: mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I'm fully available for overnight stays, multi-day house sitting, and holiday care. I'm independent with no conflicting obligations, so last-minute requests are welcome. Please note that I'm currently not able to host pets in my home, but I'm fully available to come to yours. The pet comes first, always. I follow your routines and house rules exactly, keep your home the way I found it, and am mindful of neighbors and shared spaces. I'm clean and tidy by nature (my friends would say suspiciously so). On walks I stay attentive to the dog's behavior and surroundings at all timesю I'm experienced with reactive dogs and know how to navigate shared spaces calmly. You'll get regular photo updates so you can actually relax while you're away.

Robin was great! She arrived on time and took care of our precious pets! She kept us informed and took pictures of the pets, we could see they were enjoying themselves. This was our first time having a pet sitter to our home and Robin made us feel very comfortable and did an excellent job. We will definitely have her back again!
Danii took excellent care of our 15-year-old dog, Ghetta, in our home for 26 days. She was always quick to respond and consistently sent photos, videos, and daily progress reports. Danii handled Ghetta’s medication and special needs with remarkable attention. We came home to a spotless house and a very happy dog. She even waited for us when our flight was delayed, which we truly appreciated. Thank you so much!
If there was a “10 star” review, I’d rate Sarah a 10! Sarah took excellent care of my puppy Beau. She communicated with me daily, sent photos, kept me aware of walks and feedings. Sarah house sat for me and when I returned home, the house was immaculate. Prior to my trip, I had asked Sarah to meet with Beau one more time so that he knew her. She made time for us out of her busy work day. Beau took to Sarah right away! Thank you so much for taking such good care of “my baby”
Outstanding care for Juuls. Couldn't recommend Alinna more highly. We were so happy with Alinna's care for our home and Juuls while we were away. As a nervous pet owner, it can be stressful to leave our furry friend, but Alinna put us at ease from the very beginning. She is incredibly reliable, professional, and humorous keeping our pet's routine perfectly. We especially loved the daily updates with photos. It was such a comfort to see Juuls looking so happy and relaxed in every update. Not only did she provide top-notch care for our pet, but they also took excellent care of our home. We returned to a happy animal and a pristine house. We wouldn't hesitate to book Alinna again and recommend them wholeheartedly to any pet owner. 💯💫💫💫
Samantha and Sheremn are very sweet. Samantha took good care of my two dogs and home during in house setting. Our flight got canceled and they were able to work with us to take good care of my two dogs for a few more days. We will definitely rebook with them in the future!
