“Le’Yana was amazing ! My first time using the app to book someone to watch my dog and I don’t regret it ! Very sweet women , definitely would be booking her again . Thank you”

“We were looking for someone to house sit for while we were overseas for a few weeks. From the moment we met Oli we knew our pets and home would be in good hands while we were away. Before our trip Oli took the time out to meet our pets and was happy to have all the detailed info about how to take care of them. Last minute our dog needed almost daily meds given while we were away and Oli didn’t hesitate to step up. She sent us multiple pictures and updates throughout the day which is as such a relief! When we came back our house was even cleaner than before and our pets barely greeted us. Which means they had an amazing time with Oli! Thank you so much Oli for your help and if you’re looking a reliable, communicative sitter, she’s your girl!”

“First time we’ve ever left our cat and home in the hands of a stranger. We have learned our cat might love Rosemary more than us. ? She kept us up to date with pictures. We’ll definitely book her again.”

“I can’t say enough nice things about Jordan. She jumped in at the very last minute and helped me with my 3 cats when my previous pet sitter had a last minute emergency. She was loving and attentive to my home as well as my cats!! Thank you so much!”


About: My name is Nick and I am a teacher in Chesterfield county looking to use my love for animals as a way to make some extra money over the summer. I have had dogs and cats growing up my whole life and currently have a dog named Bagel and a cat named Friday. I also have lots of experience dog/cat sitting for friends and family over the years ever since I was in high-school. I am a teacher so I won’t be working during the summers so I will have unlimited time during the day/night to take care of your pets and their needs! Once the school year starts I can do weekends and afternoon/nights! I have a lot of energy myself so if your pets love to get exercise/play around I am very up for that. I also try to be very thorough with the pet care instructions and will ask questions/for clarification to ensure I am giving your pet the best care as possible.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through both long-term and everyday responsibilities, including helping raise my aunt’s dog from puppyhood and regularly caring for my boyfriend’s dog. My responsibilities have included walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing companionship to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to each pet individually. I understand that being away from their owner can be stressful for some animals, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring, and positive environment where they feel secure and loved. My experience caring for puppies has also taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of paying close attention to behavior, routines, and energy levels. I treat every pet with the same care, compassion, and responsibility I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own cats. I make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. I even take my cat on walks, so I’m very attentive to both physical activity and emotional enrichment. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so being patient, observant, and consistent with their routines comes very naturally to me. II believe pets communicate their needs through their behavior and body language, so I always pay close attention to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I respect each pet’s boundaries while also giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, maintaining their routine, and making sure they don’t feel lonely or stressed while their owner is away.

“Very friendly and responsive. Emily came by on short notice to meet the dogs, sent lots of pictures, and when I got back, the house was in the same shape as I left it. Will definitely use her again!”
“Thank you Marissa! Figgy was well cared for and were so thankful to be able to leave her at home instead of at a kennel. Marissa left the house spotless and was extremely flexible when our plans changed.”


“Celeste was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. She was communicative, thoughtful, and consistently kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog, and seeing how happy and comfortable my dog was in her presence meant everything to me. I could tell my dog felt safe, loved, and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely trust Celeste again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Sara was a lovely sitter! She was extremely communicative and sent lots of photos. We felt so comfortable with her watching our pup in our home while we were gone and we could truly trust our dog was in good hands. We came home to a spotless house! She’s going to be our new go-to. Thank you so much Sara!”

“Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!”

“Kiara has taken care of our dog twice, and we couldn't be happier. She keeps our dog busy, walks her, plays with her, and cuddles her. Kiara leaves our house in great shape, cleaning up before she leaves. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have experience caring for highly energetic dogs including two of my own as well as experience with many cats, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. My responsibilities include daily feeding, exercise, playtime, and monitoring their overall health and well being. I'm comfortable following care instructions and providing plenty of attention to help pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for! I bring the same level of dedication and compassion when caring for others animals. I work 7:00 a.m. to anywhere between 11 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. which leaves flexibility to fit your animals scheduled needs, with my days off varying each week. I'm available for overnight house sitting and can provide care before and after work, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. On my days off, I have more flexibility for extended visits and one on one time with your pets, please reach out and I can provide my off days for the week! It's my priority to keep your pets on their normal routine and provide dependable care while you're away, along with regular updates for your peace of mind!! I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and treat every pet as if they were my own! I understand that each animal has its own personality, routine, and needs, and how important it is to take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, basic care, or providing companionship, I am dependable, patient, and attentive. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind, knowing their fur family members are in caring and responsible hands!
“For our 15-year-old Yorkie with limited hearing and vision, McKenzie was a caring and responsible day-long companion. She took our dog out frequently, gave her meds when needed, and even washed the food bowl! We can confidently recommend McKenzie as a knowledgeable and conscientious dog-sitter.”

“Douglas was such a great pick to hang with our pups and care for our home while we were gone. Our pups like to keep things interesting and Douglas’s patience with them is not only appreciated, but is admired, especially when it came to caring for our senior dog. We would gladly welcome Douglas back to our home, and I know the pups would love that too.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing. We are so glad we found her. She sent lots of photos, stayed in touch with us the whole time and even washed the sheets and blankets from the guest room she stayed in! We look forward to her taking such good care of our pup again for our son’s wedding. It is such a relief to know your precious animals are in good hands. Judging from the way Zeus was looking at her in the photos he can’t wait either! 🐾”

Virginia did a great job with our dog, we got regular updates and pictures and was very communicative our entire trip! Usually we feel guilty when we don’t take our dog on a trip, but we felt a lot better on this trip because of how great a job Virginia did. Highly recommend!

We have had Kim care for our pets the few times we have needed it for the past year and a half. When scheduling our first long vacation in many years, I made sure Kim was available before doing any planning. I don’t think we’d be comfortable leaving our house and kitties without her! Our cats love her, and my husband and I feel secure knowing everything is in Kim’s hands. She is so thoughtful, thorough, and excellent with communication. We couldn’t ask for a better pet/house sitter!!
Kylie was great and my pets were well cared for and happy when I returned. She did a great job of keeping me informed while I was gone and took care to clean up some doggy messes which was much appreciated. I will definitely use her services again. Thank you Kylie!
Kristen is so sweet!! Our whole crew absolutely adored her, and she took the best care of everyone while we were out of town. Our shy pup warmed up to her immediately! She sent so many pictures and updates through the weekend and was very responsive! Will absolutely be booking Kristen in the future for our upcoming travels / events! Thank you so much ❤️

One word to describe Christine and that is AWESOME. She took care of my 4 month old puppy for my first time leaving her and she nailed it. She kept me updated with the cutest photos and I could tell right away she was loving and caring for my little girl. She even helped with training as we are in a puppy class. I will use Christine in all my future pet sitting needs as long as she is available, as I hope she always is for me.

Alex was amazing - very professional! He was very attentive to our wishes and instructions, excellent communicator, punctual and all the things you would expect from hiring a pro. The house was left clean and he genuinely seems to care for our pets and enjoy their company. Got photos every day and followed our complicated medication schedule. The dogs seemed happy and healthy when we returned! We HIGHLY recommend!
