Mike, where do we begin. You are a wonderful person, he is SO prompt and on time. We truly appreciate that because at the end of the day, our dog who cannot help themselves needs to utilize the bathroom. You are so kind to athena, he brought a huge tennis ball for athena to enjoy and she is OBSESSED. We cannot thank you enough and will miss you.

Karissa is so lovely and attentive, our dog Eva absolutely loved her and enjoyed her visits. We highly recommend her, she is a go to sitter, kept us well informed, sent us videos and pictures of the visit. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing Eva was in good hands.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I love all types of dogs - especially high energy pups that have nothing but love to give you. Dogs bring nothing but joy to our lives and I always want to provide them with the same energy. *my dog is trained with an e-collar and I am comfortable with walking dogs who use one. I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility to meet your pet care needs! I’m happy to pop over multiple times in a day to walk or feed your dog. Being a dog owner of a boy who will try to get into anything he can, I value ensuring the highest level of safety is followed! I will always ensure doors are fully closed/locked, a leash is on securely, your pup is safely in their crate if needed, and all the other little things pet parents stress about!

Kim is respectful of our property and our dog seems to love her. It had been years since we had been in touch but she was happy to pick up right where we left off when my family had to go out of town for a night. Highly recommend.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and am a huge dog lover. As I have yet to get a pup of my own, I’ve been sitting for family, friends, and family friends for more than 5 years, where I mainly housesit. I’ve had experience watching dogs of all ages, from grumpy seniors with medication to lively puppies who need extra clean up time, to anxious Covid babies. I am very detail-oriented as I respect that each dog has their personal routine and want to ensure that not much is disrupted for them when I visit/stay. I understand the importance of keeping in contact with owners (only to the extent that you wish to be contacted) throughout the day. I guarantee that I will take plenty of photos of your pet and will be happy to share them! Note: I am based near Princeton, NJ but have moved my service location to be able to capture NYC for housesits. I work fully remotely, so I'm flexible to working with your pet's schedule when housesitting. I'm available for afternoon walks, or to come to housesit from the evenings usually. I'm also willing to travel to housesit (I've travelled to DC before!), though this would require travel coverage as part of compensation. ***For house sits of 1 week or longer, I ask owners to support in covering my meals. Gift cards or a stocked fridge are very much appreciated! *** I tend to ask clients for a document with their pet's daily routine, and how their behaviours are. I will care for your pets as you would advise to care for them in order to maintain consistency and not confuse them. Afterall, I am the guest in staying in their space should I be housesitting. For walks and drop-ins, I would like to also respect your pet's routine and ensure that they are comfortable and at ease.

She is so sweet and has a lot of patience. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and how to read them and respects their unique demands. I will definitely be using Rafa for all my needed dog walks. My Jax was looking out the window after she left wondering where she went which tells me he liked her very much! Thank you so much Rafa!

About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.

While dog sitting I am happy to stay at your home and stay overnight if needed so your animals are as comfortable as can be.

Also any sort of direction I need to take with the pets certain routine and feeding schedule I am always able to stick with there routine.

I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! Johnathan provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was happy, wait for him , and got plenty of exercise and attention. It’s clear that Johnathan genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable. I highly recommend Johnathan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible dog sitter!

About: I provide more than just pet care—I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies who need extra playtime and training, as well as senior pets who benefit from gentle handling, medication management, and a slower pace. I pay close attention to detail, communicate frequently with pet parents, and treat every dog as if they were my own. I work full time, but I work from home. I am available on most days and can be there for lunch routines. I am available during my lunch breaks for dog walks. I have one mini bernedoodle, who is the most friendly dog in the world. I can take care of dogs in my house, and am available for walks on my lunch.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. Lots of experience in caring for dog and dog walking. I also have experience in caring for a pet after surgery and administering medication. I understand how important it is for your dog to be comfortable while you are away from home. I work full-time, but I work from home two days a week. Those days I would be available for dog walking or checking in on your pet. Could do in-home sitting, preferably on weekends, but should be able to fit weekdays schedule also. I would be caring for your pet in your home. This would make them the most comfortable being in their own house. I will try to stick to the same routines that the owner does.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for animals big and small, including managing a farm with 12 horses! I bring a lifetime of love and responsibility to every pet I meet. I’ve raised puppies, cared for senior dogs through their golden years, and have a soft spot for squishy-faced pitties and bullies. Dogs, cats, or anything in between, I treat every animal like my own! I always show up with patience, treats, and plenty of affection. I'm currently working freelance and going to school for Graphic Design so my schedule is very flexible at the moment which leaves ample time for me to attend to your furry family! Animals and nature are my favorite things so when I am not at school or working you can find me out on a hiking trail, I would love to take your doggo with me next time! I am very adaptable to your pet's needs and schedule and look forward to accommodating them in whatever ways they need! I am very detail oriented when it comes to feeding schedules and medications if your pet needs them. I want you to be able to rest easy knowing that your pet is in great hands :)

Rafa has truly been an absolute gift to our family and to Jax. From the very beginning, she has gone above and beyond in every possible way. She is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and so genuinely caring—it’s obvious that this isn’t just a job for her, but something she puts her whole heart into. Rafa is wonderfully gentle and patient with Jax, and the bond they’ve built is so special to see. Jax gets genuinely excited to see her, which says everything. The thoughtful photos and detailed updates after each walk mean the world to us and give such peace of mind, knowing he’s happy, safe, and loved while we’re away. She is friendly, attentive, and treats Jax like he’s her own. Finding someone you can fully trust with your dog is priceless, and Rafa is exactly that person. We are beyond grateful for her and cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for exceptional, heartfelt care. 🐾✨💛
