“Monika was GREAT! Communication was awesome. I got frequent photos and updates on my pups. My house was nice and tidy when we returned. I could tell that Monika was an animal lover, as my pups took right to her. Highly recommend and definitely will be using her in the future for our sitting needs.”

“Emma took such great care of our puppy. She sent regular updates and tons of cute pictures. This was our first time being away from our puppy and I’m so glad we found Emma. We will be using her again.”
“Rebecca was a delight. She arrived on time and sent many photos of our dog, Kita, during her stay. She frequently updated us on how Kita was doing while we were away and gave Kita lots of play time outside and I inside. Great experience. 10/10 Would book again with her!”
“Jenna did a great job communicating while taking care of our dogs! It was clear she spent a lot of her time with them making sure they were comfortable while we were on vacation. Would definitely recommend her to dog sit!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have taken care of family and friends’ dogs for over 10 years. I have experience with oral medications. I also speak English and Spanish fluently. I’m a teacher so I work Monday-Friday from 7:00 to 3:00. I can house-sit any day of the week including weekends and I’m completely free in the summer. I like to take care of the dogs before I leave for work by giving them some attention (i.e. cuddles) and taking care of their needs. For exercise, if there’s a fenced yard, I like to play with them outside before feeding them. I try to take them for walks as often as possible.
“Sandy was fantastic with my Bear! He was comfortable and well taken care of while I was away. My place was also well taken care of. I will gladly trust Sandy with Bear again in the future! Clear communication, cute consistent updates, and real peace of mind!”
“Toneshea was amazing with our fur babies! She managed to get even better pics of Kobe aka Larry than I ever could! They actually took a selfie together! Toneshea was great with updating me on the kids and following instructions that were left for her! I didn't worry about my fur babies at all! I would highly recommend Toneshea!”
“Nicholas was great with our dog cooper! He did a meet and greet with us before booking which made me feel a-lot more comfortable about leaving our boy with him for the weekend. Nicholas kept us updated the whole time with pictures and videos! Cooper instantly bonded with Nicholas and well def be booking with him for our next trip.”
“We are extremely grateful for the work done by Francesca. She took care of our dogs for several days "overnight" in our home. One of our dogs just had rsurgery and Francesca was able to provide him with the necessary care to help him during the recovery process. Our second dog is the house protector, he takes more time to trust and approach strangers, however Francesca was able to achieve that and much more in a day. She is punctual, polite, sensitive, responsible, reliable, trustworthy and diligent. We highly recommend her to take care of your precious 🐾 babies.”
“Rochelle was very communicative and friendly! She sent multiple photos through out her stay which was appreciated. She did exactly what was asked and took great care of our dog. Thank you Rochelle! :)”
“Dana is the dearest sitter! This is her second homestay with our Louie and we just appreciate her so much. She treats Louie like her own and he just loves being with her. Dana is a very considerate house guest, too. We just love Dana and hope she will sit for us again!”
“We had Veronica stay with our pups once again and she did a fabulous job. Our pups were well taken care of and our house was just the same as we left it. She also brought in our trash cans and checked our mail. We’ll definitely have her stay with our pups again! Thank you, Veronica, for your care and patience with our pups!”
“Zaina has truly been amazing with our babies!! She was available for us last minute when our dog sitter canceled on us and truly helped us out in such a big way. The dogs loved her, and she was very kind and loving with them as well. Thank you so much again!”
“She is the BEST! Someone we can trust with our girls and our home without hesitation. One of the best at what they do — you can work with them confidently. We are very happy, and so are our girls. Thank you for everything.”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own that I adore. I have had big dogs and small, loud and quiet, and have loved them all the same. I have taught them tricks and take them on lots of walks. I have also watched dogs who require medications regularly and am good with following a schedule. I would be focused on your doggos the entire time that they are in my care:) I’m currently not working, aside from coaching in the evenings. My schedule is extremely flexible and I would only ever be out of the house for 2-3 hours at a time but could flex my schedule to fit your needs:) I have two dogs of my own so I am pretty good and knowing when they need to go out. I try to walk the dogs I watch multiple times a day or play with them outside so that they are being active. I leave the house exactly as it was when I arrived and follow all rules you may have!
About: I have experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including those with special needs or medication requirements. My goal is to provide personalized care that fits your pet’s routine, so they feel comfortable even when you’re not home. As a nursing student, my schedule can be variable, but I have availability early morning, evening, and weekend bookings. I offer pet sitting, drop in visits, walking, and overnight stays, whatever best suits your needs. I’m a dedicated pet lover with 12 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other furry friends! Whether your pet needs a walk, cuddles, playtime, or just a reliable companion while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved.

If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets as if they were her own, Francesca is the person you want!!😁 I AM SERIOUS. SHE is the person you want for your fur babies!! I am 10000% sure YOUR PET WILL CHOOSE HER. Not only did we schedule Francesca a couple months in advance, we ended up having changes to our vacation and reservation. We notified Francesca in advance and she happily adapted to the new plans (this happened a couple times!) As someone who probably “over thinks” the care our pets receive (they’re our babies!!), Francesca went above and beyond.. Francesca recently stayed with our dog, Blu, and our cat, Milo, while we were away (we boarded our other two dogs to “try out” Rover), and we could not have asked for a better experience. From the moment we left, she provided multiple updates, photos, and messages throughout each day, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It was clear that she was not simply checking in on our pets—she was genuinely engaged with them, attentive to their needs, and invested in their well-being. She allowed Blu to sleep with her (as we normally do) and cuddle her (our pets are very cuddly). This meant so much to us as we’d never expect for someone to give up their personal space, but she did! She followed our pets’ routines exactly as requested, ensuring consistency and comfort while we were gone. Beyond caring for our animals, she also treated our home with the utmost respect. She kept everything clean, did laundry, washed dishes, and left our home in wonderful condition. What truly stood out was her calmness and professionalism during an unexpected situation. One of our pets had an accident while we were away, and Francesca immediately called us, kept us informed, and handled everything with remarkable composure and compassion. During a stressful moment, she was exactly the kind of person you would want caring for your beloved pets. She noted when our dog didn’t finish his food or supplements, when he had gone potty, and even shared what she was doing/her personal plans. Francesca is caring, responsible, communicative, trustworthy, and incredibly compassionate toward animals. We never once worried about our pets because we knew they were in excellent hands. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter, and we will absolutely be using her again in the future.🐾
Laura was amazing! It’s been really hard to find a good house sitter, someone who will actually stay at my house and not just drop in, and followed all my instructions perfectly for caring for my baby. My cat was so happy with her and I felt completely at ease being out of town and knowing she was keeping him safe and loved. She sent me so many pictures of him looking so happy, even curled up in the bed with her! She also went above and beyond by taking out my garbage, watered my houseplants, even washed and dried her sheets. I didn’t ask her to do any of these things, she just did it out her own kindness. I am so happy to have found someone who did such a stellar job and I will definitely hire her again in the future!
Jade is AMAZING! She watched our two cats and dog while we were away. She sent the best pictures of our fur babies everyday. Kept us updated and is great with response time. We definitely will be choosing Jade again in the future. I highly recommend having her!
Kelli did a great job taking care of my two dogs, and they both seemed to really like her. She sent daily photo updates and was very communicative throughout her stay. My dogs can be a bit reactive on walks, but she was able to redirect them without any issues. My house was also just as clean as I left it when I returned, which was a welcome surprise. I would definitely trust her to care for my dogs again.
Dana is the dearest sitter! This is her second homestay with our Louie and we just appreciate her so much. She treats Louie like her own and he just loves being with her. Dana is a very considerate house guest, too. We just love Dana and hope she will sit for us again!
Morgan was absolutely wonderful! She followed all of my instructions perfectly and went above and beyond by vacuuming the apartment before she left. She stayed for the entire weekend and was incredibly trustworthy, thoughtful, and kept me updated the whole time. I had total peace of mind knowing she was there looking after my two cats. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again!
Fantastic experience with this sitter! She stayed overnight with Jaxx and took great care of him, regular walks, fresh water, and awesome communication throughout. I really appreciated the photos and videos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Jaxx was clearly well cared for. Would absolutely book with her again!
Bobby was great with our 3 dogs. He took time with all of them individually and sent us photos everytime he took them out. I’m always apprehensive when we leave the dogs with new sitters due to previous incidents but Bobby put my mind at ease. I will definitely reach out to him for future sitting needs.
Lane was amazing!!! So kind, quick to communicate and our dogs took to her immediately. I have trouble trusting if our dogs are comfortable or being taken care of to our standards and felt 0 anxiety with Lane watching them. So many pictures of them snuggling & being goofy I knew they were well taken care of! Will 100% use Lane again the future if she’s available.
