“Tina was so sweet and super attentive to my cat! It can be tough finding a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter, but you can definitely count on her for being there to give all the love and care to your pet while you’re away. :)”
“Joycemar took great care of our cats. She administered insulin when needed, and communicated great with pictures and videos. Our cats were well taken care of and seem happy and healthy. Would definitely recommend! 10/10”
“Alina is reliable and she is great with Pablo. She treats him like family and cares for him exceptionally. She communicates promptly and openly. She’s a trusted sitter and someone I know I can count on to care for my baby.”
“As always, Emma was fantastic with my girls. She went above and beyond when Snap and Pompom broke something (100% my fault) and made sure it was well cleaned so they wouldn't get glass in their paws.”
“Alexandria was great! She agreed to watch the dogs very last minute, and worked with our schedule for the meet and greet and drop in visits. We got updates and pictures every day, and she was on time and took really good care of our girls!”
“Danni is awesome! Both my pups are so well taken care of with her. I feel comfortable leaving them in her care because she is diligent, consistent, has great communication and the pups love her! Thank you for all you do, Danni!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ¡Excelente experiencia! Iliana Cuidó de Moisés y Fernanda con muchísimo amor, cariño y dedicación. Se nota que realmente ama a los animales y eso me dio mucha tranquilidad mientras estuvieron bajo su cuidado. Mis perritos estuvieron felices, bien atendidos y recibieron todo el cariño que necesitaban. 🐶❤️ Definitivamente volvería a confiar en ella para cuidarlos. ¡La recomiendo 100%! 🥰🐾”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here. I’m home all day with my three babies, so I have the capacity to frequently take your kiddos on walks & playtime out in the fenced yard I have three dogs on my own that are friendly after getting acclimated to other visiting dogs. I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
About: Since childhood I have always been the one tasked with taking care of the family pets and then the neighborhood pets. I am an attentive walker and can't wait to sit your pets! I do gig work so I am available to whomever reaches out first. I have used dog walkers for many years and would love to provide the same service back for others! I pay attention to details and any notes or directions you leave. I have reliable transportation and plenty of experience with dogs. No pet will be left unhappy in my care.
“Erin was great with my boy! She was super attentive to and provided updates throughout our time away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for excellent care for their dog while they’re away from home.”
“Sophia is so wonderful! She is professional, kind, and was very attentive with my puppy. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for quality pet care!”
About: I have been a pet parent for many years and understand that every pet is unique. I currently share my home with two Huskies and four cats ranging in age from 3 to 20 years old, giving me experience caring for pets at every stage of life. One of my greatest joys has been caring for senior pets and learning their individual routines, personalities, and needs. I understand that older pets often require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I also have experience with energetic dogs, independent cats, and the many different personalities that make our pets so special. I treat every animal as an individual and will provide the same loving, dependable care that I would want for my own pets. I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. I am able to offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting while making sure each pet receives individual attention and care. I enjoy incorporating pet care into my routine and taking the time to provide more than just the basics—making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while their families are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pets is a big responsibility, and I will treat both your pets and your home with respect. During visits, I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal routines, provide meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, litter box care, and any needed medications. I will pay attention to your pet’s behavior and communicate with you through updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I believe pets are family, and I will care for yours with the same patience, kindness, and attention I give my own.
“Ava is an absolute gem! She handled both of my dogs with so much patience and love, including my hyper dog who can be a handful. She matched her energy while still keeping things calm and safe for my other dog too. Ava communicated very easily throughout the time she cared for my dogs and followed every single care instruction I left to the letter. It's clear she genuinely cares about the pet and their safety. My dogs responded well to her and I'm looking forward to booking her again. Five stars all the way. Book her, you won't regret it!"”
“I’ve had natalie be our drop-in sitter for our dog emma for a while now. She’s great at communicating with me if there’s any mishaps or questions. She is a kind soul who loves dogs, and it really shows. She took great care of our pup. Sad to see her go (due to schedule differences), otherwise I would have loved to continue having her care for my dog. Never had a problem with her. 10/10 would recommend. Your pup would be on safe hands with her.”
“Amanda is our go-to every time we leave for vacation! She is absolutely reliable every time. Even when needed last minute, she’s always willing to extend her help. Not to mention she takes the best photos of our 2 cats :)”
“Annalise was great! She took care of my cats while I was away and gave me peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and sent thoughtful updates with photos after every visit. It was clear she genuinely cared about them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after.”
“Britni was AMAZING!! It was my first time using a pet sitter and she sent so many pictures and detailed messages about how he was doing and went above and beyond!! Highly recommend to anyone!!”
“Bianca was a great sitter! Kind and communicative throughout the entire process and took good care of our fur baby :) Appreciated that she shared updates and pictures during each drop-in visit. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

Alina was incredibly attentive, responsible, and communicative. She kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s not easy leaving your dog with someone else, but Alina made the entire experience feel effortless. My dog was clearly comfortable and happy with her, and that says everything.
Viviana was so great with Cheerio! Very tentative and kept me updated every visit and even stayed with her when Cheerio wasn’t feeling the greatest. She went above and beyond in her care with Cheerio and made her feel so loved. Definitely recommend having her watch your baby and will be using her again in the future!
Aliyah was so kind and attentive to my cats while i was out of the country for nearly 2 weeks. My cats are both seniors, one with slight medical issues and she made sure to give him extra special care which I appreciated so much. She provided great details and pictures on every visit and followed the care instructions perfectly. She even helped with my isopods/bugs care which she was not obligated to do but she was more than willing to help with. I will definitely use her again in the future and would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter.
Jason watched our two cats — one elderly and independent, and one young, shy, and anxious — during our two‑week international trip, and he was amazing. He came twice a day, handled meals, litter boxes, and even supervised their outdoor patio time. He never missed a visit or check-in. He also spent extra time on the visits if he could, and helped us with mail/packages that arrived while we were gone. Really above and beyond. He sent photos and detailed notes every visit, which made us feel totally at ease while we were away. The best part was how he bonded with our extra‑shy cat. She usually hides from everyone, but Jason spent extra time with her each visit, letting her warm up at her own pace. After a few days, they were basically best buddies — she wasn’t hiding anymore and actually came out to greet him. It made us so happy that our babies were happy! We’d book Jason again in a heartbeat.
We love Shelby so much! From the pictures he takes of our cats to the messages he leaves about them on the report card, he always makes sure that we know our cats are being well taken care of (: Shelby always makes sure that the apartment is clean as well!! Thank you so much as always!
Andrea is very patient and accommodating and she took such a great care of my cat when I am away for a whole week! I got home and was welcomed by a very healthy and clingy cat (as expected) and everything was perfect! I will definitely book Andrea again (if she were available) in the future!
Sophia was amazing with helping us take care of our cat for a week. She left detailed reports on her rover card, took plenty of very cute photos, and made sure to follow our instructions precisely each visit. Really helped us be less stressed while we were out of town, and would 100% ask for her services again!
Tina is amazing! She is so great with our three kitties, and we have been so grateful knowing they are in good hands when we travel. We even had a kitty that needed some meds, and she was so great with making sure he took them and stayed on track. Can’t recommend her enough!
Jennifer gave me complete peace of mind while I was out of state for my cat! She gave awesome updates in rover, spent time trying to get to know my very shy kitty, and left my apartment very clean. Great communication and super sweet person. Couldn’t recommend more
