“Destiny was great with our dogs. Super communicative and detailed with her updates. And she took extra precautions during a heat wave to make sure our pups were safe and cool. Overall, a great experience with Destiny and would definitely recommend!”

“Sophia did an excellent job! She stayed at our home with our two dogs and everything went just perfectly! We got daily pictures and updates. We highly recommend Sophia!”

“Norwyn was wonderful Great communication, provided photos & updates Was empathetic to our pups injury and knew how to properly approach & interact with them. Our pup was calm and relaxed upon our return. We look forward to having Norwyn sit for us in the future.”

“Bret accepted our short notice booking and stopped by for a meet & greet before we headed out for a weekend trip, which was great. Our pets are currently pretty low maintenance but it was important for us to have someone stay the weekend while we had some R&R. We’d have Bret back on a future vacation.”
“Brooklynn was wonderful with our dog Otto! She sent us frequent updates and photos, took him for fun adventures, and made sure he was happy and safe while we were away for the weekend. She left our house spotless too! We would definitely love to have Brooklynn spend time with Otto again. Thank you, Brooklynn!”

“Jay took good care of Iris while I was away over the holidays. I had requested daily communication, and Jay sent a picture or comment every day. When I had questions, Jay responded immediately. Iris was clearly well cared-for, and her coat has never looked better, thanks to Jay's grooming. Jay left the house clean and organized. We had travel interruptions and were unable to fly home as planned, and Jay helpfully agreed to stay on longer than planned.”

“Madeleine was a wonderful sitter for my little pup! Rusty really liked her right from their first meeting. She stayed at my house which was perfect because Rusty is used to someone being home all the time. When I returned, the house was exactly the way I left it. I would highly recommend Madeleine for per/house sitting!”

“Celine was always quick with communication from beginning to end. She stayed with our two crazy pups, one who can be a handful. She shared pictures, followed their routines, and let our puppy sleep under the covers with her in bed!”

“I cannot recommend Ryan enough! She dog sat for my two fur babies and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Responsive, communicative, kind, respectful, and a calming force - the perfect care taker for my two high energy, very spoiled dogs. We look forward to booking her again soon!”

“Viva is the best dog sitter!!! Our boys have such a wonderful connection with her and while we miss them when we are away, we never worry about them. She always sends the best pictures and videos, too! 15/10!”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and have been helping to care for them (walking, feeding, etc.) since I was around 10 years old. I’ve pet sit for many family friends throughout the years - dogs and cats alike. Recently I even housesat for 4 dogs and 2 cats all at the same time! My family dogs both recently passed away and I’ve been looking for something to fill the whole in my heart. Would love to take care of your pets! I am a freelance writer, musician, and retail associate, so I’m able to make my own schedule a lot of the time. I’m free during the day Monday-Thursday to walk your pooch or for drop-in visits, and I’m available after work on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays (I typically get off around 3-5 pm). I can walk, feed, or house sit for your dogs or cats. Also just love spending time with them in general! Whatever you need, I’m here to help.
“Ashton was a great sitter for our dog and cat while we traveled out of town for a few days. My dog can be a bit anxious so it’s always a bit nerve wrecking leaving her with someone else but Ashton was up for the challenge and my anxious girl warmed right up to her. She even made an extra trip over during the day when my dog was having a little bit of a panic moment. Will definitely use her again!”

“I highly recommend Hannah! She stayed at my house for a week and took excellent care of my dogs while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and responsible hands. She kept me updated, followed all instructions, and treated my dogs like they were her own. When I came home, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. The house was also in great condition. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will definitely be booking her again in the future. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely great with animals, I would absolutely recommend her!”

“John was an awesome pupsitter and we would definitely hire him again! He was communicative, thorough, and very attentive to our 2 dogs over the course of the week that he watched them. Highly recommend him!”

“Lynne was amazing! She stayed at our house in July while we were traveling for a week. This was the first time for us to leave our puppy overnight, so needless to say, we were a bit worried about how our 13-month-old pup would do without us. Lynne immediately put both the dog and us at ease. Throughout the week, she sent us pictures and quick updates. We met up with Lynne again a few days after our trip and the dog was super happy to see her. We will definitely reach out to her again when we need somebody to watch our dog.”

About: Animals have always been the center of my world, from growing up with pets to pet-sitting countless dogs and cats across NYC. My two cats, August and Ivy, are the absolute loves of my life - My goal is simple: to provide your beloved pets with the exact same high standard of care, safety, and affection that my own two companions receive at home. I work in the office 3 days a week, but I have an hour for lunch and live only 7 min from my office. If close enough I will be able to check in midday as well as morning and after work. I have a fenced yard, though my cats are indoor only I have taken care of my neighbors dogs and enjoy playing fletch for round after round after round. I am organized and will have notes based on what you need for each drop in, will supply pictures, be there on time and stay the whole time. Having used rover myself I know how integral these things are!

About: Growing up with all sorts of animals but highly experienced with horses rodents and dogs. My folks have a senior Aussie right now and im adjusted to all sorts of care and meeting breed specific enrichment and recognizing body language. I am careful and dedicated and won’t be pushy with your pet. I also stay very calm and will not feed into their anxiety. I can send photos, videos, and even video call you so you can say hi to your pet! I work flexibly, with a lot of time off but will need some notice if it’s between 11am and 5pm on a weekday. Happy to jump in last minute to watch while you’re on a date night, or let you know what days im off to hang around all day. Just contact me and we can figure it out! I read body language and won’t be pushy to be their friend. I am careful with doors, materials, etc to ensure they won’t be sick or hurt or lost. I can administer medicine as needed and engage in breed behaviour. I can send photos videos or video call you to say hi to your pet! If requested, I could bring my professional camera and take a few free shots of your pet.

Sami was promptly responsive to messages when setting up our house sitting. Sami was calm and patient when meeting our dog who can be a little anxious. We received detailed updates and pictures while we were gone. Our dog seemed very content. Our house was just as we left it when we returned. We plan to rebook with Sami, and we definitely recommend Sami!

Sergey stayed at my house for a long weekend with my 5-month-old pup. He was very responsive and responsible, and my dog loved him! He alerted me about a small medical problem during my absence and updated me the next day. I wouldn't hesitate to ask him to care for Archie again.

What an absolute gem Hilary is! She stayed in our home with our elderly dog, Islay, for 12 days, including several days of a July heat wave. She provided empathetic, thoughtful care throughout, creatively problem-solved to help Islay get comfortable in the heat, administered daily meds (plus some extras to help keep Islay calm during July 4th fireworks), sent regular updates and photos, and stayed attuned to Islay’s signals and needs. We are very thankful to have found Hilary for our trip to visit family abroad, and we came home to a happy, healthy, and relaxed girl, plus a very tidy house (not necessary but always appreciated). Thank you so much, Hilary! Islay misses you already.

Jackiellen watched my dog for the first time and I felt like he was in the best hands possible. She kept me updated throughout the day long visit (lots of texts and pictures) and also stayed longer just to keep an eye on my emotional pup. I felt very safe leaving Boone with her and he looked like he had a great time with walks, cuddles, playtime, and more. Will absolutely be using Jackiellen in the future for doggy play dates!

Jules was absolutely outstanding! She had wonderful communication with us, and really took the time to get to know us, our dog Daisy, and Daisy’s routine. She is absolutely wonderful with animals and treats them like they’re her own! Daisy is already looking forward to the next time Jules comes back to stay with her!
