“Chris is the best! Hands down one of the BEST pet sitters for my babies. I am SUPER picky and don't usually book the same sitters unless I truly like them. Chris communicates very well and sees to my pets needs. Follows the itinerary very well, sends pictures, updates, and knows how to handle each one of them.”


“Boya is amazing! She took such great care of my dog Odin—followed all his routines perfectly, gave him tons of love, and kept me updated the whole time. He absolutely adored her. I felt totally at ease knowing he was in such good hands. She was so patient with my anxious dog. Highly recommend! 🐾”


“This is my third booking with Atxiri. I love the pictures and updates she sends. She is attentive and plays with my cat son. She is also very reliable and leaves my place cleaner than I left it. I have always come back to a happy cat when she is here. Thank you Atxiri!”


“Kloe was very careful and loving with Bigotes, she kept me very informed and sent me photographs and videos, I highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again. Thank You Kloe !”


“Reliable, courteous, professional. Communicates with me throughout the stay with pictures and texts of my pets. Gives me peace of mind knowing Angelica will look after my pets with great care. I highly recommend her.”


“We had a great experience with Sally as our dog walker and sitter for Henry. She was flexible with scheduling, which made things much easier for us. Sally was attentive and caring, making sure Henry got plenty of exercise and attention. Her friendly attitude made her easy to communicate with, and we appreciated the updates she sent us while we were away. We highly recommend Sally to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Henry certainly enjoyed his time with her!”


About: I have worked with all dog for over 9 years, I have my own fur babies so your babies will have a play mates and never feel alone. I helped train puppies with basic skill, keep up with senior care, help owners with anything like grooming or bathing. They might come back a little spoiled with love and attention. I work from home, I dedicate myself to dog walking. I keep all pet parents updated each week regarding any changes. Can count on me during holidays, so I can give your babies the holiday spirit to spread the holiday festivities. I have two Golden Retriever's, so I constantly groom them and keep them active and happy. I also keep my home clean and choking hazard free. If your dog is not pottied trained please let me know in advance or known to be reactive please let me know as well. Since I have my business, I’m able to take the breaks is needed to take care of your babies need in the comfort of your home or visit. I respect all homes and follow rules that have been set by you as the pet parent. I give two videos; one in beginning and another in the end with Pictures. Also if you want to keep up with training I will send a video and keep you updated on their progress.


“Keoma was the best! I couldn’t recommend her more. She took such good care of my needy cat and put me at ease about leaving him on a weekend trip for the first time. Keoma sent great photos and videos while I was away, and my cat was clearly very happy when I got home. I will definitely work with Keoma again!”


“John did an amazing job taking care of our two labs for eight days! He treated our girls like his own. He was excellent with her multiple medical issues, including, my girls, diabetes, which requires injectable insulin twice a day. He sent us constant updates multiple times a day, which included photos and video! He was so respectful of staying in our home and left it clean and tidy after his visit. I highly recommend him- he gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our family dream vacation!”


“My dog is feisty and doesn’t get along well with nearly anyone, but she loved Sara! Very responsible and communicative in important situations. She stayed at our apartment and left it cleaner than we did! Would highly recommend!”


About: I’m a proud dog mom to a 5-year-old Shiba Inu and have also cared for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs and cats over the years. As a pet owner myself, I completely understand the worry that comes with being away from your furry companion. That’s why I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own—with patience, love, and attention to detail. I'm responsive, reliable, and committed to making sure both you and your pet feel safe and comfortable. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your pet. I’m available for daytime check-ins and walks, and I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine and specific needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, walk times, or play preferences—to keep things familiar and stress-free. I always treat your home with respect and maintain a clean, safe environment for your pet. You’ll receive regular updates with messages, photos, or videos, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands while you're away.


About: Having 2 dogs of my own, I know how much clients/dogs owners care for their babies. They need to be fed, exercised, trained and taken care of as if they were little kids. That's what I do with my own 2 dogs and that's what I would do with any other dog under my care. My goal is to create a trusting and safe environment for the dog and return him or her to their owner as happy as ever.

“Antoinette is lovely and our dog, Larry, really enjoyed being with her! She clearly loves dogs - took Larry for a great long walk - and sent pics to us! I highly recommend her!”


“Jessica is amazing! She’s very responsible and was able to keep our dogs on their regular routine to the park with longs walks, which I’m so thankful for! When we got back from our weekend trip our dogs were so calm, relaxed and played-out. Definitely going to book again!”


About: I have experience with dogs of all ages, and I am an expert puppy trainer. I am well versed in all the basics of walking, feeding, giving medications and comforting a dog when sleeping in a new environment. My experience has also helped me to develop fun training activities that will ensure that your pet will enjoy their time with me and possibly return to you with some new tricks to show you. I work from home so I have a lot of time to spend hanging out with dogs. I also love my clients that require extra walks because it’s a great reminder for me to get away from the computer screen and get some fresh air. I have a wide empty entry way in my apartment, perfect for my daycare clients to get comfortable. I also have a large fenced in backyard for us to play in when the dogs need to burn off a bit more energy.

“Cynthia watched my pup overnight and took such good care of him. I felt at ease knowing he was not alone and with someone who genuinely likes dogs (even old cranky ones like mine). Thank you so much Cynthia!!”


About: As a vegan, I care deeply for all animals. I’ve grown up around cats and dogs, have volunteered at sanctuaries, and have a sweet cat named Corny. I have many friends with dogs of all sizes and love them all as my own! I’m currently looking for part time/night time/weekend shifts, but am very open to discuss weekday availability. I nanny my niece 3 days during the week, but am free early morning and evenings/nights any day of the week. I give a lot of attention to pets when I visit their home. I recognize it’s their safe space, allowing them plenty of time to get used to my scent and presence, play with toys, and give lots of treats (if and when allowed). I’m also very comfortable with elder or more independent pets who may not be as cuddly or active.


About: I’ve taken care of pets of various friends and neighbors over the last few years. I have always wanted a pet of my own and treat every pet like they are. I am a hard and detail oriented worker. I will clearly communicate with you how your pet is doing as well as sending pictures and videos. I am currently a teacher on summer break so I have nothing but time to come and play with your pups! Nothing would be more fun for me than to get to take your dog for a walk and have some quality playtime with them while we enjoy the summer sun! I have experienced both dog and cat sitting while clients and friends of mine have gone on vacation. I have taken dogs for walks, cleaned out litter boxes, fed them, and enjoyed some playtime. Unfortunately, my apartment does not allow pets so I cannot have one of my own, but I would be more than happy to care for your pet in your home.

Leida T.
“Hello, my name is Denise Torres and Leida is one of the most caring and loving people that I know especially when it comes to animals in general especially dogs. She owns two shitzu-chihuahuas named Rocky and Heaven. She treats them like her own children. Aside from that she is amazing at training dogs. She loves walking her dogs daily to keep them healthy and stays on top of their health and grooms them herself. You wouldn't regret having her as a dog caregiver because any dog would feel love and warmth when in her arms and care. She would do anything to make sure any dog feels comfortable and protected. You can't go wrong with her, she has helped train other dogs and has helped others raise their dogs as well.”

Cheyenne B.

I have three cats and a husky, and Chey is an angel with them. Chey always sends the cutest pics and keeps me updated when I’m out of town, giving me a huge peace of mind whilst I am away. I can travel with ease knowing they are in good hands with their favourite stand in human.”




Maria M.
“Maria is a very responsible and caring individual who works extremely well with animals. She has pet sat my pet dog Cindy numerous times and is always so gentle with her. She is a diligent caretaker with pets and took all my concerns seriously (e.g., making sure to add boiled carrots to her dog food, placing her food on a plate or on the floor as her bowl causes her whisker fatigue, etc.). I could not recommend anyone more as a pet caregiver than Maria.”

Kelsey watched our two German shepherds for us overnight and she was incredible. We have a very large, anxious and hyper 2 year old and a 4 month old puppy so we were very nervous about leaving them at all let alone overnight, however Kelsey met with us beforehand and we instantly knew she was warm, responsible, and a true animal lover so she was the perfect sitter for our pups. When we got back from our trip, our home was incredibly clean and our dogs were happier and safer than ever. We highly recommend Kelsey!!
