Anastasia did a great job of watching my dog Butters. He has Cushing’s disease and requires a little extra care. She did a great job of making sure he had his medication when he was supposed to, which I totally appreciate. She was very communicative and sent me pictures a few times a day so I could see that he was happy and doing well with her. I will absolutely book her again when I need a sitter for my dog.

So grateful for John! Very understanding of the difficulties I had leaving my Luna for the first time like this - sent me multiple texts, pictures and videos assuring me she was doing well and happy. Very flexible with my schedule and made the point to come meet Luna ahead of time on a previous day. Very attentive to Luna's schedule and her specific little quirks. Luna clearly enjoyed her time, giving John a super speed tail wag and some kisses before we left.

About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I currently care for a Bullmastiff and previously owned a Pug who lived to be 16 years old, giving me firsthand experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and ages. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your dog company, I will provide the same level of care and attention that I give my own pets. I recently graduated from college, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pets. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, playtime, or overnight care, I can provide dependable attention and companionship. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will work with you to meet your dog’s specific needs and routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a longtime dog owner, I understand that every dog has different needs, personalities, and routines. I will carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and any special care requirements. I am attentive, responsible, and committed to creating a safe, positive, and stress-free experience for your pet while you’re away.

We are incredibly grateful we found Erica to watch our dog while we were on vacation. She was responsive, accommodating, and very sweet! We had only adopted our dog two months prior and were anxious to leave him, but her caring nature made us feel at ease and we knew he would be in excellent hands. She was flexible with staying at our home and sent us daily photos so we felt included in his day. She even brought her dog over to play, which our dog loved, and we loved watching the videos of them playing! She left our home exactly how we left it and was very tidy. We will absolutely be using Erica again for our pet sitting needs, she was wonderful!

I could tell Alyssa was the right sitter within the first 5 minutes of meeting her. She put my mind at ease while scheduling traveling plans for our 5 day trip. While she was at my house I could tell that my dog was in great hands :) She had great updates and took great care of my house as well. Look forward to using her in the future! Thank you Alyssa!

We had an excellent experience with Yelitza as dog sitter and would happily book with her again. From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, sending frequent updates and lots of photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. What impressed us most was how quickly our dogs warmed up to her during the meet and greet. One of our dogs is extremely shy and nervous around new people, so seeing Richard immediately comfortable with our sitter was remarkable and spoke volumes about her calm, caring demeanor. She also went above and beyond throughout the stay. Not only did she take wonderful care of our dogs, but she cleaned up after them without being asked and even brought in packages that arrived while we were away. Those thoughtful extra touches were such a pleasant surprise. We returned home to happy, well-cared-for dogs and felt completely confident that they were in great hands. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter.

About: I have 5 years of pet care experience and truly enjoy spending time with dogs. I have cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, including walking, feeding, playing, giving fresh water, cleaning up after them, and keeping them comfortable while their owners are away. I am patient, gentle, and responsible, and I always try to follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully. I understand that every dog has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take time to make pets feel safe and cared for. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I am usually home and able to give pets regular attention throughout the day. I can help with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. I have a fenced-in house with 4 bedrooms, so I can safely keep pets separated when needed. This is helpful for pets who need quiet space, slow introductions, or extra comfort. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully for feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I keep the home clean, safe, and calm, and I make sure pets are supervised and comfortable during their stay.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life. Growing up, I was always around dogs and cats, and over the years my children have also owned numerous dogs and cats, giving me extensive hands-on experience with pets of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to treating every pet like family. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s providing exercise, companionship, feeding, administering basic care, or simply making sure a pet feels safe and comfortable while their owner is away, I take pride in providing compassionate and dependable care. After retiring from a nursing career of more than 40 years, I now have a very flexible schedule. I enjoy traveling, but I have plenty of availability to provide dependable pet care and can often accommodate pet owners’ scheduling needs. My experience in nursing taught me responsibility, attention to detail, patience, and compassion qualities that I bring to caring for every pet. Whether your pet needs regular visits, overnight care, or extra attention, I have the time and dedication to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I provide care based on each pet’s individual routine and needs, whether in my home or in the client’s home. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and meals according to their normal schedule. I understand how important consistency is for pets and work to keep their daily routine as close to normal as possible while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the pet and the home with respect, providing companionship, walks, feeding, potty breaks, and any other requested care. When pets stay in my home, they are welcomed into a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they receive supervision, affection, and plenty of opportunities to relax and play. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, happy, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

About: I love interacting and caring for pets. I am a flexible in-home pet sitter, happy to come to your home and meet your needs. I enjoy working with dogs and learning their personalities. I have several years of experience with dogs. I currently have a 1 year old dog who I am training myself. On the weekends I am fully available and love to take the dogs to the dog park (if that's okay) and give them lots of love and attention. If you are looking for weekday sitter to be home all day, I am not your best option since I do work on weekdays 8-4:30pm. On a weekday, I would arrive to your place after work around 5:00pm. Once I arrive, I like to first take the dogs to a Dog Park or on a walk length appropriate for your pet. Weekends I am fully available and again like to explore Dog Parks with my clients. If this is not something you're comfortable, I like to meet your needs. I keep a close eye on all the pets I watch. I like to be fully prepared for any situation that might arise. If there is anything specific I need to know about your dog, definitely send along that info. I like to learn the personalities of the pets in my care as well so I can better meet their needs.
