“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Kathy! She took such great care of our dog, Rocky, visiting three times a day and keeping us updated with excellent communication. She even went above and beyond to handle some unexpected tummy issues with care and attention. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Rocky was in such loving and capable hands. We highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!”
“Peter was absolutely fantastic! He was on time and took care of Rocco and the house! Highly recommend!”
“Mary was absolutely amazing! I’m pretty sure when we came home from vacation my dog was sad that she wasn’t coming back. She was attentive, loving, responsive and truly the best person for our pup when we couldn’t be there. We hope to use her again. Thank you Mary!!”
“Sarah was great with our pup, Albus. We are so grateful that she took good care of him while we were away, and really appreciated the photos she sent of him!”
“Monique was the perfect person to watch our anxious/reactive but very active dog, Benny. She was happy to meet up a few times to meet and walk with him so he would be familiar with her when we left. Monique sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us posted daily. Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be booking again.”
“Very sweet and took great care of Zorro”
“Jacqueline is amazing - she handles my two large dogs easily, communicates well, and is super reliable!”
“Aileen watched our dog and cat for an overnight stay for a few nights and we felt so comfortable with them in her care! She sent detailed updates, photos, and videos when we missed our fur babes. She was communicative, kind, and thorough. Definitely the best sitter we’ve had on Rover. She recently started walking our dog weekly, too! We know they will be in good hands for a longer trip coming up soon. She is so sweet and easy to work with!”
“Amy was FANTASTIC! She cared for our 3 dogs and 3 cats for 10 days. Super communicative, sends pictures daily, and you can tell she loves caring for your pets. Amy was super attentive, patient, and kind. Best sitter we’ve had. 1000% recommend and plan on booking her services again in the future.”
“I felt totally at ease knowing my 3 pets were with Claudia while I was on vacation! Claudia is attentive, gives lots of updates, and is a considerate carer—adapting as they all needed in order for them to have the best experience while I was gone!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I was the kind of kid who was obsessed with dogs and begged my dad for a puppy! I’m happy to play with your dog and run around in the backyard, take them for walks around the neighborhood, always make sure they have enough food and water, and give them all the love and attention they ask for 😊 I’m currently working part time with a different schedule every week, but I have more than enough time to make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve! While I can’t care for pets in my own home since I have a cat and a senior dog, I’m happy to care for your pet in their home! I want to be as respectful as possible in your home, so feel free to let me know any information I should know.
“Myranda did a great job watching Rocco. We came home to a happy puppy. She sent daily updates and pictures. Made going away much less stressful knowing Rocco was well taken care of.”
“Thank you for taking care of my pups for 5 nights! I loved all the pictures and videos you sent me. I know my pups are happy and safe in your care.”
“Tina is so amazing that we want to keep her all to ourselves! ♥️ But that seems unfair so here you go… 1. Tina is a joy in person. Such a lovely human and easy to talk to. 2. She’s so good with dogs that she was completely unfazed by our big wildly energetic lab. They were immediate best friends and ready for adventure. 3. It’s so hard to find someone who is wonderful with cats too and cat would seem to be Tina’s second language. We came home to a blissed out cat who was energetic, lovey, and even put on a little much needed weight. Tina pays very close attention to an individual pet’s needs and our old special needs kitty is totally in love with her. 4. Pictures! Updates! 🎉 We had a consistent and lovely view of happy pets. 5. We are now calling her the immaculate house guest. Everything, and I mean everything, was pristine when we returned. It looked like a huge team of cleaners had been through the house. What an especially wonderful way to come home. All of that said, do not book Tina! We want her all to ourselves. 😉♥️”
“Debbie is a comfort while you are away from your beloved pet. Always on time and provided the love and care we needed for our elderly pet. Highly recommend.”
“I can not say enough good things about Zachary. My dog sitter cancelled last minute due to illness and I had already left my home so I was in a complete panic. Zachary agreed to come take care Sasha last minute and was so amazing about it! He made me feel reassured and he kept me updated on Sasha. He kept her soo happy and left my apartment in perfect condition. I would recommend him to everyone!!!”
“Jen was a great sitter for our pup! She came over early in the morning twice to keep him company while we were away. We will be requesting Jen’s assistance when we need another sitter. Thanks Jen!”
“Quanece was great with my 4 month old puppy, J’Rome! She’s patient and well experienced. She sent lots of updates and picture/videos throughout the day. I would highly recommend!”
