“Kris was an awesome caretaker for our two old cats, one of whom needs a lot of extra care. We got regular updates (including literally one of the cutest/funniest photos we've ever seen of our other cat), and would feel totally comfortable having Kris here again!”
“I hesitate to leave such a great review as Jayce will then become so popular but it would be unfair to keep such a gem hidden! Jayce has extraordinary patience and could possibly be a dog whisperer. Don’t ever hesitate to book them. Incredible communication , empathy and did I mention PATIENCE ?❤️”
“McKenzie is the absolute best. Trustworthy, punctual, excellent with our anxious pup and thoughtful in her communication. We cannot say enough good things about them!”
“Alex was the perfect weekend buddy for our two pitbull mixes. They showed up right on time for the meet and greet, and seemed happy and patient to be around the dogs. During the pet sitting, we received several updates and dog photos which we always appreciate. We came back to our home exactly how we had left it. We would definitely book Alex again, and would recommend them to others as well!”
“We LOVE how much Shalindra loves our dogs, and they love her! She keeps us thoroughly updated and sends plenty of pictures and videos so we know they’re doing well. She is someone who you know just adores spending time with dogs, which helps us know she’s enjoying her time with our pups, even if one of our dogs is insane haha. Highly recommend Shalindra if you want someone to truly enjoy hanging out with your pups and update you along the way.”
“My dogs were super happy with Eric. He sent me regular updates to keep me in the loop and communication was good. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter they can trust.”
“★★★★★ Jisu was absolutely amazing! She stayed at our home to watch our two dogs and took such great care of them. We came back to happy pups and a spotless house. She sent regular updates, was super reliable, and clearly treated our dogs like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Brendan was polite, professional, and the fastest text responder I have ever met. Our shy cats love him, and the daily cat photography was a 10/10. Words cannot describe how overprotective and nervous of a cat owner I am, and I knew from the first update that my sons were in very good hands. We will absolutely be booking again!”
“Julie was a great helping looking after my puppy! He was so well taken care of and it allowed me and my family to work stress free! Would 100% rebook with Julie in the future!!”
“We always feel so relieved when Cassandra is available to watch our boys. They absolutely adore her, and it’s so obvious that she takes the time to give them both the special attention that both of their unique personalities need. Our home is always spotless and well cared for, and we can travel anywhere with peace of mind ♥️”
About: I tend to bond well with doggos and am happy to walk, feed, cuddle, give belly rubs, and play tug-of-war and fetch with your dog(s). I also have experience caring for senior doggies who need medications and extra care and attention. I'm available for daily dog-walking, drop-in visits, and pet-sitting. I have a roommate who loves and can care for my cat so I am able to stay in your home and keep your pet company while you're away. I'm able to stop in for a time to feed and care for or walk your pet, or I can stay at your home if your pet needs more company and support. As a long-time cat mom who treasures her feline companion, I understand the importance of knowing your pet is being well-cared for when you can't be there. I commit to showing your pet the same care I would show my own, and I will be respectful of your home and conscientious about keeping it clean!
“Alexandria was an amazing dog and house sitter! Our girl Nena was taken on her numerous walks, given all her pills and had the best time relaxing at home. Our home was well taken care of! We felt extremely comfortable having Alexandria watch our old girl, Nena and will be booking again!”
“Ellie house sat and stayed with our sweet Luna over the weekend. We couldn’t be happier about the entire experience! From the meet and greet to Ellie’s communication, punctuality and responsiveness we give her a 10/10. She was respectful to the house and we could barely tell anyone was here. We’ll definitely be using Ellie in the future!”
“Stuart took amazing care of my dog, Denali, while I was out of town. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly great with dogs. Denali loved him! I completely trust Stuart and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.”
About: I currently have two high energy pitbulls of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling strong, active dogs and keeping them mentally and physically engaged. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with different temperaments, along with playful puppies or senior dogs. I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine that you have set for your dog Since I’m currently between jobs, I have a flexible, open schedule and can dedicate my full attention to your pet. I’m available 7 days a week, mornings through evenings, making me a great option for last-minute bookings or dogs that need extra company and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety is my number one priority. My home is fenced in and safe, and I’m here all day so your dog will never be left alone for long. I follow each owner’s routines closely, send regular photo updates, and will reach out immediately if anything comes up.
About: I'm patient, reliable, and love building trust with each pet I meet. All pets get plenty of love, attention, and care while you're away! 🐾 I'm mostly available throughout the weekdays (Mon, Wed, Friday, and Saturdays) anytime frame requested by clients, same day bookings included. Willing to travel long distances. I feed pet according to its diet, I bathe them if clients request, I bond by safely playing with the pet's, also pride myself on keeping their environment clean.
“Mandy was an incredible in-home sitter for our 9.5-year-old labradoodle. She provided outstanding, detailed updates that brought us enormous peace of mind while we were away. Our dog is timid around new people and sensitive to any disruption due to a rough first few years of her life (before we adopted her) so we were very particular about finding someone who could make her feel comfortable. Mandy was amazing - she was thoughtful and deliberate about showing our dog love while also giving her time and space to warm up, and in less than a day, our dog was cuddling with Mandy and engaging with her playfully. And Mandy even left the house looking better than it did when we left. We feel very fortunate to have found Mandy and highly recommend her.”
About: James and I started pet sitting and traveling in 2018, and it has been a fabulous adventure. We enjoy taking care of all animals. We love walking the dogs to get our steps in and cats with their uniqueness. We believe staying home with them until they get settled in is very important. We won’t leave them home alone, as they are happier when we’re around. Lots of walks, play time, and snuggles. We have lived in Seward Park since 2003 in a home with a fenced yard about a mile from the park. It is a great dog walking neighborhood. We enjoy puppies and senior dogs. We are also good medicine givers. Call or text us. We are a Retired married couple who throughly enjoy dogs/cats. We have been International pet sitters since 2018, and we have found that bonding is the most important thing about boarding a new animal. Creating a trust and being there with them so they don’t feel alone. Having fun activities to do that they enjoy is imperative. Many times it’s walking and “getting a smell” of their new environment. We have many popular walking neighborhood loops and Seward Park is always a hit. We enjoy them and they enjoy us. We make it a priority to listen to their individual language and gain their trust. Our home has screened windows and lots of light. We have safe hiding places, a comfy bed, and are home a lot, which they really like. Food is very important and we feed them as requested. We listen to what our pet owners have to say about their animals, as everyone is different. Please let us know anything else that makes them feel comfortable.

We felt so comfortable leaving our beloved (and stressy) dog with Nancy while we were out of the country. She was excellent at communicating with us, attentive to issues with our house while we were gone, and even did some training with Stega! She really goes above and beyond. And when we came back, I could tell that Stega had a relaxing time and got lots of love. We love Nancy!
I hesitate to leave such a great review as Jayce will then become so popular but it would be unfair to keep such a gem hidden! Jayce has extraordinary patience and could possibly be a dog whisperer. Don’t ever hesitate to book them. Incredible communication , empathy and did I mention PATIENCE ?❤️
This was a quick overnight away as an experiment with how our cats would do. Wing Shan made it very successful. She sent pictures and communicated well. The cats seemed very relaxed upon our return -- which is the ideal goal. Thanks Wing Shan! ( The next experiment will be with our higher maintenance 4lb dog... 😅)
This was our first time having Kris stay at our place with Camano and we had such a great experience! We loved her daily updates and cute photos! When she had questions, or we communicated something, she was prompt in her responses. The cat was happy, the place looked just as we left it, and we felt so comfortable with everything about this experience and Kris. Highly recommend and would have her house and cat sit for us again!! Thank you Kris you gave us such peace of mind!
This is the 2nd time Wendy has stayed at our house & taken care of our pitty, Spot. He’s an anxious guy with arthritis who loves to play and snuggle, but also know everything is safe. He warmed up to her so quickly and seemed to have had a really great time when we got home. She gives plenty of updates, followed all instructions, is super perceptive of pet needs and letting them determine pacing of things, and gives lots of loves and treats! While not required, our place was clean when we got home. Fully trust Wendy and will deff have her back! Oh and Spot looooved reiki!
MacKenzie was so wonderful with our three (high maintenance) dogs! Two of them are incredibly shy and within a short period of time Mackenzie got them to play with her. She is great with communication, sending pics, updates, and at navigating complicated feeding and sleeping situations. An added bonus: she takes gorgeous pics of the animals in her care. Highly recommended, and we already have her booked for our next trip!
Mandy is awesome. I have a cat that needs to be walked like a dog - seriously, he only "goes" outside, and Mandy accommodates this. he needs to be walked on his schedule, not yours, and Mandy sticks to the schedule. I trust her with my fur babies regularly and I'm so glad I do!! Overall a great communicator and trustworthy pet-sitter.
Brendan went above and beyond taking care of Aurora, we were able to relax on our trip knowing Brendan would be taking her on walks, spending quality time with her at our home, and sending great communicative updates. We highly recommend having Brendan pet sit for you.
Shay performed outstanding. She came over for a site visit/meet & greet prior to, which was helpful. She took care of our two large dogs and watched our house for 10 days. One of our dogs requires medication and that was handled. The other dog is a big protection dog and they got along great. Exercised daily and daily pictures provided. Our home was left in clean condition and no issues. Would recommend her and will use her again.
Alexandria was really great with Cooper. She took him on walks and spent quality time with him outside on the porch, which I really appreciated. She also kept me updated throughout the stay with photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She was very respectful of the space and left the house in such great condition that I could barely tell she was even there. I would absolutely recommend her to others and would definitely hire her again.
