“Kayma was so very kind and easy going. My dogs felt at ease with her pretty immediately. Which, I could tell from all of the photos she sent me!!! She was very communicative and made everything feel easy. I cannot recommend her enough. Your fur kiddos will be in great hands.”


“Erika was wonderful with our old guy. She took great care of Bubba, gave him meds 4 times a day & did his workouts with him. She made our trip more enjoyable knowing he was in such great hands.”
“We had never used Rover before, so we were super nervous how it would work with our fur babies. Erin eased our worries completely, even doing a test run for an hour before our vacation! One of our girls can be kind of hesitant/growly at people she doesn't know, but she warmed up to Erin immediately. The entire time we were gone, Erin sent us updates and pictures...making it so much easier for us to enjoy our vacation!! We can't say enough how amazing she is and we will definitely be using her again!!!”

“Sharon was amazing and I will 100% look to book with her again. I had planned to have her watch my dog from a Friday through Tuesday while on a vacation, but a family emergency ended my trip while I was traveling. Sharon was great to work with during this time, insisting that we modify the reservation to account for the shorter booking, all while sending pictures and videos of my dog—which my family and I really needed to see during an emotionally draining time. Otherwise, she just completely handled taking care of Teddy while I was gone, and I didn’t have to worry about a thing.”

“Maryn is amazing! She took great care of my boy while I was away for the week. I appreciated her updates and communication while I was away and will definitely reach out again for her services in the future.”

“Julia took excellent care of our girl. We made a last minute request for Julia to extend her stay and she was kind enough to accommodate. I would definitely recommend Julia for your pet sitting needs.”

“Bridget did a great job taking care of Chili while I was at work. Chili was exhausted when I got home and Bridget provided updates throughout the day which I really appreciated.”

“I cannot speak highly enough of Jennifer! She house sat for my 5 mo old puppy and two senior cats, and my garden for six days, coordinating with veterinarian to deliver medical care to my sick cat and spending most of her time with my animals. She worked on training my pup and got him back into a good routine! She is super communicative and gives you the kinds of updates you want to hear about and sends lots of photos. She follows directions to a tee, so I never had to worry! She kept the house clean. I will definitely be asking for her again! 6 stars”


About: I’ve loved animals of all kinds since I was a kid! For the last 8 years I have worked as a veterinary assistant working hands on with pets of all kinds including anxious pets, special needs pets, and geriatric pets. I’m comfortable giving medications or following specific directions for pets that need just a little more attention. I of course love pets of all ages whether that’s playing with young pets or giving older pets more accommodations. I’m currently working part-time at an animal clinic, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet! I go for walks twice daily already and your pet would make a perfect addition! I live in an apartment with my 13 year old cat, Juliet. Juliet is a very sweet cat but will typically hide when other pets are boarded in the home. My apartment is located in the Volker neighborhood with parks and plenty of walking trails nearby. For in home boarding, pets are welcome on my furniture including the bed. I am happy to follow any and all requests for boarding / caretaking inside your home, including giving medications either orally or injectables.
“Amazing caretaker. She went above and beyond to ensure my pets were taken care of. My dog had a cough and she took him to the vet and kept me updated every step of the way. Would recommend her to any pet owner!”

“Abby took time to get to know my pack before we left. It was apparent she has a big heart for animals. My pets were well taken care of as evidenced by the pictures she sent. We have a skiddish kitty who was not only seen, but comfortable in all the pictures! I will use Abby again.”

About: I've taken care of my own pets (cats and senior dogs) for over a decade as well as lovingly and responsibly provided care for friends and families animals (cats, dogs, chickens...) when need. Experienced cat foster who has cared for sick and very young kittens. I work from home, have a flexible schedule, and my cat is very low maintenance so I have ample time to support others needing some extra hands to support their pet. Pets in my home would be under my supervision at all times and/or leashed for any outdoor excursions. Happy to crate your animals or otherwise accommodate what works best for you and them while in my care.
“Was timely and present with the doggos! They’re like children so all you can hope is someone will show up and love them while you’re away like you would! Will definitely use her again :)”

“Amazing, per usual. Our flight got belated by about three hours and she stayed later to make sure my animals were taken care of and fed. Highly recommend Lulu’s services.”


About: I’ve been owned by several (rescue) dogs and a few cats. Am capable a caring for multiple pets in household. Have lived with 3 dogs for several years. I’m good with all animals and have a tendency to make a critter calm. Senior dogs are a specialty and regular medications are no problem. Done a lot of house sitting for pets and home security. Day care and overnights easy as I am retired with only a few obligations with my time. I am retired so an abundance of time is available. I do have a commitment to sit with a dog and two cats every Wednesday. I feed/walk/play with two dogs every evening and a long walk on Saturday afternoon. I clean a home once a month on my schedule. I am involved in my church (Sunday worship and once a month vestry meetings). If you desire overnight stays or extended visits I’m able to do that as long as leaving for above mentioned obligations works with your pet. My specialty is senior dogs. I prefer smaller dogs as I am older fella and wouldn’t want to lose grip walking or caring for large dogs. Feeding/walks/medications not a problem If doing check ins I am punctual and trustworthy in your home.
“She did an amazing job! Loved that she sent photos and messages with updates. Would definitely love to use her again. She was very responsible and kind. My babies were in good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Whitney did a wonderful job dog and house sitting for us last weekend. She took the time and effort to make our dog comfortable and to develop a close relationship with him. We highly recommend her!”


“Kate was amazing!! She checked in often and sent photos of my dogs daily! Dolly is usually timid of people but she was really comfortable with Kate! She stayed at my home and was with them majority of the time! They had constant care and attention. When I returned she started laundry for the bedding and towels, and left everything spotless! It doesn’t even look like she was here which is such a blessing to come back to a clean home! I would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”

Kayma did a wonderful job of looking after my home and my cat! She kept me updated daily with photos, assisted with an untimely inspection that needed to be done while I was away, and I came home to a clean, tidy space, fresh sheets on the bed, and a very happy cat - he acted like I hadn’t even left him! I would absolutely recommend her if you want someone who will look after your home and pets as you would!

This is the second time we've booked Hillary to stay at our house and care for our pets while we were on a weeklong vacation. It won't be the last. We feel completely comfortable with her in our home and our pets love her! Hillary also takes good care of the house while we are gone. I 100% recommend her services.

I was so lucky to find Brenna!! She completed an in home sit for my two dogs and left them happy and the house spotless. She was a great communicator throughout, sending photos and regular updates. Nothing was better than coming home to fresh sheets, and she even left me a delicious homemade casserole for my first day back, which was such a lifesaver so I didn’t have to prioritize grocery shopping and food prep. Thank you so much, Brenna!!

Five stars for Susannah! She was awesome with Gurdy and Smidgie. The communication was great throughout our trip. She sent plenty of photos, including some great videos of her playing with the pups. Everyone looked completely relaxed and happy. She brought her dog Oliver along, and by the time we got home all three had clearly become fast friends. We couldn’t have asked for better care. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!

Always a 5 star experience with Amina! It is such a treat for Chambo and peace of mind for us to have Amina taking care of things. We were able to have a little adventure out of town, and out of cell service, knowing Amina had it covered. And we returned home knowing Chambo was taken care of and all we had to do was cuddle our bubbs. Thank you again, Amina!
