“Gianna was fantastic. The pups took right to her. She has the perfect energy for a pet sitter. We all felt calmer when Gianna was in the house. LOL.”
“Toni took great care of our home and our pups! She sent regular updates and everything was just the way we left it when we returned. We didn't have cell signal while gone and she offered to stay until we returned and shared genuine concern that she hadn't heard from us, very considerate. Would definitely recommend Toni!”
“Mia was fantastic! She had a wonderful interaction with our little ones. We haven't traveled much lately as a family since it's challenging to find someone experienced with large dogs. She provided us with regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”
“She does amazing with my new puppy”

“The dogs love Aly! They had a great time with her! A+++”
About: I've taken care of dogs of all sizes and a variety of other animals since I was a teenager. I love every animal and I'm comfortable administering medications and working with senior animals I'm off for the summer from college, so I'm free all summer to take care of animals! I can walk or care for animals any time of day I am able to spend any amount of time with animals that they need, providing playtime and attention, and I will walk them at any time!
“After I leave this review everyone will want to use him and he might not have anytime left for me. LOL Compassionate, intelligent and an obvious animal lover.I don't know what I would have done without his help..... On the morning of my daughters wedding my dog (Marzipan) out of nowhere and right before I had leave,started showing signs of pain and dicomfort. Mike calmed me down and actually took her to the vet for me. Unbelievable. I would never use anyone else. Thank Mike.”
“Jace did a great job of talking care of our boy Bruno! He was always quick and clear with communication, and followed his schedule perfectly and made him feel comfortable from the first day they met. We’ll definitely be using Jace again when we need a sitter!”
“Maria is great! Artie and Lis spent a beautiful time with her. Maria is truly sweet and reliable. Definitely to call her again.”
“Well what can I say! It is the second time that we have had Vivian stay at our home. Vivian is amazing! Our puppies love her! She always sends updates and great pictures of them. My wife and I do not worry about them while she is here. If your looking for a wonderful person look no further! She is wonderful with our puppies!”
About: Just know that with me - they will get plenty of cuddles and lots of belly rubs! Dogs are not just our pets I consider them family! I was truly blessed to have taken care of not one but two amazing family members who have since gone to doggy heaven. I had taken care of Scoobs from the day he was born until his very last breath when he was 15 years old so I do have experience with senior dogs. It brightens up my day to see the joy on their face as I walk through the door. I truly have missed that so I can't wait to take care of your fur-baby and I will treasure them and love them as if they were my very own. I am currently on a hybrid schedule with work so my available days to care for your dog would be on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. I also do not mind the weekends if I am needed. In your home I will make sure that they are always safe and make sure that they feel truly comfortable with me. I will honestly care for them as if they were my very own.
About: Guinea pig mom! Love tiny fur babies, but I have sat for young and adult dogs for the past 2.5 years. I bring nearly 20 years of experience in fast-paced, people-centric industries — which means I’m calm under pressure, communicative, and deeply attuned to individual needs (human or furry). I treat every pet like they’re my own, prioritizing safety, comfort, and play. I have experience caring for senior dogs, administering meds, and managing multi-pet households. I’m also great with shy or anxious pets — I take the time to build trust and follow your routines to the letter. Whether it’s belly rubs, structured walks, or enrichment activities, your pet gets personalized care and my full attention. Pet care is just part of our life. My partner and I live together, and he’s a huge dog lover — he had a German Shepherd for almost 11 years, so caring for animals is second nature to both of us. We keep a calm, pet-friendly home and love having furry company around. Walks, belly rubs, playtime, meds if needed — it’s all built into our day. Whether it’s your pup’s first visit or their tenth, they’ll get plenty of attention and affection from both of us. Whether I’m welcoming your pet into my home or caring for them in theirs, I keep things calm, safe, and consistent. I follow your routines closely — feeding, walks, meds, playtime — because I know how much pets thrive on familiarity. At my place, I make sure they have a comfy space to relax, access to fresh water, and all the love and attention they’re used to getting from you. I keep communication open with updates, photos, and little check-ins so you never have to wonder how things are going. Whether it’s a quick walk or a weekend stay, your pet’s well-being is always the priority.
About: Hi there! I was previously a volunteer at an animal shelter, worked with didabled animals, and fostered several animals helping them find forever homes. I have a true passion for animals and enjoy being around all kinds of pets! Furry members of the family are important and should be treated as such! I am comfortable with all size dogs as well as cats and exotic animals. I would love to help you take care of your fur babies!! I enjoy being outside and going for long walks/hikes but am willing to assist in any way you need. I will gladly work around both of our schedules to accommodate your needs! I am more available in the morning and evenings but can switch things around if necessary. I keep dogs active and loved while parents are away and have no issues with keeping up with your usual schedule so their routine isn’t thrown off.
About: I've had pets all my life ranging from fish, hamsters, frogs, cats and dogs. They have all taught me appreciation towards companionship and the joys of being a pet owner. I have around 5 years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. I am also an Eagle Scout who loves the outdoors, so taking your dog(s) for a walk or to the park would be my pleasure. I'm currently working part time in the morning of weekdays. I am free to take care of your pets after 12 pm and anytime during the weekends. At home, I take care of my cat Pepe where i attentively pet him when he shows affection. I feed him 3 times a day and clean his litter box everyday. For when i watch your pet, I will love and care for it as if were my own. I have experience caring for and walking dogs in the past 5 years for family, friends and past roomates.
“My first time using anyone outside of family to care for my dogs and I was thoroughly satisfied with the care Leah provided to my babies. I know they had a great time with her from the pictures and video she sent. Would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her services moving forward..”
“Katie was excellent with our dogs. She also kept us updated with regular texts and pictures and gave us complete peace of mind. Would definitely love to have her take care of our pets again :)”
About: With years of experience caring for pets, I bring dependable, loving care you can trust. I keep you in the loop with regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is happy, healthy, and in great hands. I’m currently working part-time & I just finished undergraduate school so I will have plenty of time to care and give attention to your pet ! I let my pet roam around freely around my home with closed doors to bathrooms and kitchen spaces that could be considered unsafe or allow them to get into anything of harm.
“Thank you Allison for staying at my place over the weekend. The dogs were in great care and I had no worries at all while being away! Very attentive, provides updates, and overall caring ! Had a great experience with Allison watching my 2 crazy doggos!”
About: I have been around many sizes and breeds of dogs. My specialty is exercise and walking. I can do basic training as well if needed. I have a mostly free summer, so I can be available as necessary. Once my college senior year starts, I’ll be available for evenings and weekends. I have pet sat and babysat in the past, meaning I keep a watchful and loving eye on your pet at all times to make sure they get all of the love and care they need.

I have also watched after dogs/cats/reptiles/etc. side by side with Eleanor for nearly a decade now, so I can confidently say she is one of the BEST people you could have to watch after your pets! Whenever someone asks me for another sitter to recommend, Eleanor is always who I think of first! :)”

“Regina is an awesome person! She’s caring, kind and responsible. Was a Dog mom, loves animals, patient along with being so sweet and gentle to all.”
Frances Caroline B.
“Frances cares for and loves her pet guinea pigs as if they were her own children. She worries for them, tends to their wheeks immediately, and spoils them with toys and decorations for their cage as much as she can. She holds them close to her heart (literally!) as if each time is her last moment with them. Guinea pigs are typically scared of humans, as they appear as big, moving predators to their eyes. However, when let out of their cage to roam around, they approach Frances with no fear. They will even climb on her if she is sitting down. (Albeit to ask for food but still!) They know her energy is safe to be around which is why they don’t hesitate to gravitate towards her. Overall, I can’t think of a more perfect candidate to be a sitter to anyone’s lovely pets.”
Kayla H.
“I cannot say enough great things about Kayla. She is reliable, experienced and genuinely loves dogs, they love her too for that matter. She's recently started taking care of my 2 female pitties, one who has separation anxiety, and I am beyond happy and satisfied with the care she's giving them, relieved that I have found her.”
Michael d.
“I’m delighted to recommend Michael as an exceptional pet caregiver. Over the time I’ve known him, I’ve witnessed firsthand how attentive, responsible, and genuinely loving he is with animals. He has pets of his own, and the way he lovingly cares for them—making sure they’re happy, healthy, and well-loved—speaks volumes about his character and dedication. Whether it's keeping up with feeding schedules, regular walks, playtime, or simply spending quiet moments keeping pets company, Michael always goes above and beyond to ensure their well-being and happiness. He treats every animal as if they were part of his own family. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your pet, Michael is the perfect choice. He will not only meet your pet's needs but truly care for them with heart and dedication.”
