“Really great experience! Got photos and detailed updates every day. I actually have not met Christine in person! I live in an apartment building that has digital keys and I sent her my information and a video tutorial and she took it from there. Highly recommend and will use her in the future. Trusted sitter!”

13. Emily J.
About: I grew up taking care of our family dog who was the best Mutt ever. She lived 16 beautiful long happy years. I don’t have any dogs of my own at the moment which means I can give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I have a hybrid work schedule and fairly flexible weekends right now. Especially if I know in advance and can plan for your pet, I will easily be able to accommodate. I show them love and attention while making sure they are physically very well taken care of. I personally live an active lifestyle and can easily bring them along with me if your pet has lots of energy or is used to lots of activity.


14. Eily I.

“Eily was fantastic! Communicative and took her time during her drop in visits. It was my first time leaving my cat alone and she made sure he was happy and comfortable… as well as making sure I was assured he was ok. Highly recommend using Eily for all your pet sitting needs!!”


15. Mark J.
“Mark is an excellent dog dad! He has taken care of my 2y/o puppy multiple times and he is very caring and attentive. He took the time to learn my puppy’s commands and routines. He even sends you the most adorable pictures and videos so you don’t miss your puppy. I highly recommend meeting mark and his dogs and trusting him to watch them 12/10 dog parent approved!”


16. Kristen Joy G.
“She was amazing! She took great care of my two cats that are like my family. She also gave me updates and was very communicative with me, which I appreciate a lot. Best person to take care of my pets!”


17. Karla H.
“Karla is a superstar when it comes to dogs, especially elderly and special needs. She will talk to your pup like family and make sure they are well loved so that you can have peace of mind when you are away.”


18. Kaitie C.


“Thank you Kaitie for taking wonderful care of our dogs!! Having an elderly dog makes us especially nervous to be away from home, but we felt safe and sound with them in Kaitie’s care. Terrific service and communication from Kaitie!”




19. Mckenzie M.

“Thanks Mckenzie! My girls appreciate you looking after them and taking them on their walks! I love receiving pictures while Im working and seeing their smiling faces because you are there!”


20. Lynn T.
“Lynn has taken care of my cat Salem many times and every time she does my cat doesn’t want to come home to me! She always wants to stay with Lynn! I would recommend Lynn as a pet sitter/walker to anyone especially because she has a family background of dog training. Not only does she care for animals but she works from home and is able to stay with your animal the majority of the day, which was a huge plus for me because my cat has major separation anxiety. Lynn definitely goes above and beyond, she even asked me if my cat had allergies or dietary restrictions so that she could give my cat the treats she home made, so sweet and thoughtful. Thanks Lynn!”
