Gabriella is wonderful! It was the first time leaving my dog with a house sitter, and Gabriella did everything and then some to make sure he was at ease the entire time. He loved the company, and I will be using Gabriella's services again!

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for the past couple years. I have taken care of both family and friends dogs as well as neighbors from word of mouth. I am currently working remotely part time from home so I am generally pretty free to dog sit or pop in to feed any pets during the day. I can't take care of any pets in my home, but can go to your home and either dog sit from there or walk your dog.

She managed to get our cranky boy to allow her to pet him. I am not sure how she managed that. He doesn't like anyone except us. That's huge. The other 2 enjoyed lots of attention and treats.

We recently entrusted our dog Maeve to Jill, and we couldn't be more pleased with the care she received. Jill not only kept our home tidy but also formed a special bond with Maeve, ensuring she was happy and well-cared for. We highly recommend Jill for her exceptional service and genuine love for dogs!

About: I've been lucky enough to have a dog in my life since I was 8 years old, and now I'm 20! My dog is 13 years old, and caring for her has taught me so much about patience and responsibility. She takes multiple medications, so I'm very comfortable with medication schedules and making sure pets receive the care they need on time. I've also looked after other pets for family and friends like my friend's 3 cats, Rocky, Pepper and Sage, during school breaks, and the cutest dog in the world, Abby. These experiences helped me become confident caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs!! I truly love spending time with animals, cuddling, playing, keeping them company, or just making sure they stay active and happy. I'm an outdoorsy person who enjoys hiking and walking, so I'd be happy to take your dog on walks and adventures if needed. I'm reliable, attentive, and comfortable with feeding and following special instructions to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for! I’m planning to have an internship, so I’ll be working full days but will be able to periodically check in on your animals!! I love to play and spend time with them, and you can trust they’re in great hands! My puppy is 13 years old, and is on many medications, has specific feeding times and diet, but she still loves to play and go on walks! I’m super organized and take very good care of her.

Veer did a great job taking care of my 3 dogs for 6 days. He stopped over a couple of times before my trip to make sure he knew their schedule and where to find everything in the house. During the stay he was very responsive to any questions or concerns I had and kept me updated with pictures and videos of the dogs. I could tell the dogs were happy and could see that he really cared for them. The house was clean and in the same condition as when I left. He even brought my garbage pail up from the curb and brought my mail in! I would definitely book with Veer again!

Short review, Rita is great. Long review. Rita is extremely professional and takes her responsibilities and commitments extremely seriously. She is open about scheduling conflicts in a way that ensures that the quality of care of your pet won't be compromised. She has been extremely flexible and adapted to meet our needs both scheduling and care wise. During her time with our puppy, she remained extremely responsive and proactively shared photos and updates. We couldn't be more pleased with our experience and highly recommend Rita.

Simply put, Joey was outstanding, both with his care of Pablo as well as management of our home while staying here. As a person, he’s a young man of high integrity who is kind, thoughtful, and detail oriented! He loves dogs; kept me posted with text and pics; and maintains a positive and loving temperament. He exceeded my expectations and would give him my highest recommendation!

About: I have some experience with dogs. I don’t mind cleaning up after any dog. I also enjoy going for walks and playing fetch with dogs. I am currently a college student at Rider University. I have almost full availability to care for your precious fur baby. I’m available both before and after class as well as many nights. I can easily care for your fur baby with any directions left. I will be able to spend time and play with them while also making sure they are comfortable.

Alisha is a delight! When she came to meet my cat and dog they immediately liked her and her warm energy. I felt instantly comfortable allowing Alisha into our home for her stay. She sent pictures everyday and small check-in notes, and I could tell she really cares about our pets and their wellbeing. I felt confident that our pets were in good hands, as Alisha is responsive, punctual, responsible, and very kind. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Joey took amazing care of my kitten while I was away. I came home to a happy, relaxed, and healthy cat. I am SO grateful to know my little guy was in caring hands. Joey took care of all of his needs and went above and beyond by giving him lots of attention, care, and cozy vibes. They were great with communicating and sending pics-you can trust them with any of your pet needs. THANK YOU, JOEY!!
