“Casey was excellent. He took care of all of our pets, including two cats, a dog, and six ducks he was considerate of our space, clean, and trustworthy. I feel grateful to know that we have someone now that we can rely on.”

“Kendra was fantastic! She sent several updates and photos each day while I was gone and Tucker really enjoyed his cuddle and play time with her ❤️ I came home to a tidy home and happy pup! Tucker looks forward to hanging out with Kendra again!”

“Joy did a wonderful job with my pups while I was away for nearly 2weeks. Unexpectedly she had to take my one to the vet as we noticed something just the day before I had to leave. She kept me fully updated along the way and I felt a lot better knowing she would show the same amount of concern and care as I would. I received frequent updates and lots of pictures too! My dogs are definitely a handful and take a good amount of patience, so I really appreciate all that she does for me. I would definitely have Joy stay at my house any time I am in need of a kind hearted pet lover.”

“Brittany was so great with our two pups! She did great at sending updates & communicating with us so we felt at east the whole time we were away! So thankful to have found someone to love on our dogs!”
“Brian is the best. We were so lucky to find him. We can go on vacation and not worry about our pets with Brian taking care of them. I highly recommend him for any animal care you need”

“Amanda is amazing! They are so happy and comfortable with her. She supports the needs of the 5 month old puppy and the 13 year old dog (and the cat) with love and structure. Her years of experience with dogs really shows!”


“Rose was absolutely amazing with Ghost 🐾 You can tell she genuinely loves animals and treated him like her own. She kept us updated, gave him so much love and attention, and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Coming home to a happy, relaxed pup says everything. We’re so grateful for her and would trust her with Ghost again in a heartbeat 💕”

“Gabriela was wonderful and responsive and came ahead of time to meet which allowed both of us to be comfortable with each other. She was also very responsive and respectful of my concerns. I highly recommend her.”

“Kylie was a wonderful doggie sitter. My babies loved her and I know they were taken care of very well. She did all of the extras which I hadn’t expected. We cannot wait to have her here again. :)”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for a little over 4 years and have had animals all my life. So I have a ton of experience with pet sitting! I can also watch any other animals. Just show me what needs done, I most likely can do it! (Besides dogs & cats, I have watched/fed goats, birds, turtles and fish!) I will try to always go above and beyond for your pets & treat them like my own🤍 I do pet sitting full time so I have a lot of time to care for your pets! Just message me to figure out days and times! I do get booked quick for overnight stays so try to book me quickly:) I unfortunately can not do care for any pets at my house but when coming to your house I will do anything asked to help with your fur baby and make sure they get all the loving I can give!
About: Growing up I had a sweet little fur baby named Bruno. He was a pug and my whole life. My family and I loved him so much after rescuing him he lived to be almost 16 years of age! Since then, I spent many weekends dog or cat sitting as well as working at a doggy daycare, called Paws for a brief period of time where I was able to hone in my skills. Daily/weekly pet care comes from observing the comfort and behaviors of each pet. There are a big dog park just around the corner of my apartment as well as a hiking route I love to take dogs to run around with. It's a perfect place to go for a few hours so that your fur babys can have the most fun! Safety and trust are the most important part of having an animal in my home. I want to make sure your fur baby is given everything they need so they can enjoy their time with me. Animals lives are short, and they deserve the best with the time they have.
“Grace is the best! She is very comfortable with our lab, and seemed very confident with her care. Our kitties also really enjoyed having Grace around. Grace is great at sending sweet update photos and messages, and we are looking forward to being able to book her for future pet care!”

About: I have always had dogs my whole life growing up. Recently our two dogs have gone through a board and train program and I have learned alot from that! I’m currently working a full time job. I am available in the afternoons usually and could do pop in visit during the day depending on the time. I am usually available after 5pm for sure but can work out times during the day that would work! I have a fenced in yard on my property. I can take your dog for a walk ; let them out for potty breaks however you usually do. I can Crate your dog as I have experience with that as well.
“Madelyn had done drop-in visits for our cat Buddy but this was the first time we hired her to do overnight cat and house sitting, She took excellent care of our home and our cat Buddy, a very shy cat rescued from a hoarding situation who experiences significant separation anxiety when we leave. Buddy even came out of hiding to sit near Madelyn and she was even able to engage him in play. We will definitely hire Madelyn again for both drop-in and overnight care.”

About: Hi, I’m Ashley—professional animal lover and your pet’s new favorite human 🐾 I spent 6 years as a vet assistant in both emergency and general practice (DC & Cleveland), so I’m not just here for the cuddles—I’m trained to handle a wide range of situations and keep your pet safe and happy. At home, I have three pups of my own, so I fully understand the level of care, attention, and love your pets deserve. I’m big on routines, attention to detail, and making sure your pet feels comfortable while you’re away—because let’s be honest, they run the house. If you’re looking for someone reliable, experienced, and genuinely obsessed with animals… I’m your person.😁💗🐾 Caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. With a flexible schedule, I’m generally available for weekdays, evenings, and weekends, which makes it easy for me to provide reliable and consistent care. Between my background as a vet assistant and having three dogs of my own, I’m very used to building my routine around pets—making sure they’re comfortable, on schedule, and well taken care of. Care is always tailored to each pet’s routine and environment. I focus on consistency, attention to detail, and creating a calm, comfortable experience—whether in my home or my client’s. With a background in veterinary care, I’m able to provide an added level of awareness and support to ensure each pet’s well-being.
“Sabrina watched my dog Rosco for a long weekend and did a phenomenal job. She sent many pictures and videos of our dog. I felt completely comfortable leaving Rosco in her care. I would highly recommend her.”

I cannot recommend Casey highly enough! We recently traveled to Toronto for five days, and Casey took phenomenal care of our home, our dog Ellie, and our two cats, Maestro and Norman. Leaving pets behind can be stressful, but Casey gave us a huge peace of mind while we were away. One of our cats was dealing with a chin acne infection that required strict daily attention, and Casey didn't miss a beat. He was incredibly diligent with the care routine—meticulously washing their water bowls every single day and carefully cleaning his chin after every meal. Thanks to Casey's consistent and attentive care, the infection completely cleared up by the time we returned! Beyond the exceptional medical attention and daily pet care, Casey was tremendously respectful of our house. He kept everything perfectly tidy, maintained our pets' normal routines without a hitch, and was highly communicative so we never had to worry. If you are looking for a trustworthy, detail-oriented sitter who genuinely cares about your animals—especially if your pets have special needs or require medical attention—Casey is exactly who you want. Knowing our home and our furry family members were in such capable hands made our trip so much more enjoyable. We will absolutely be booking with him again!
