Jeffrey was great with my dog, Saan. He met us for a check-in at short notice, sent lots of pictures while we were away, and was very personable!

A joy to work with and that’s an understatement. By far the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. He’s excellent with our three dogs and very attentive. He keeps us posted daily with updates and numerous pictures. His attendance is invaluable. I almost hate to give him a good review because I’m afraid of him being scooped up by other customers. You’d be lucky to have him in your home and taking care of your best friends.

Breana did a great job house sitting for our animals. The animals were well taken care of and she left our house neater than she found it. I also really appreciated the daily updates and photos she sent.

Andrea was a dream to work with! She came over first to meet our pup before we left. She took great care of our home and sent a ton of photos which is what I asked for. We would definitely use Andrea again to watch our pet and stay at our home! We are so lucky to have found her.

Best Rover we’ve ever had! She truly went above and beyond caring for our dog and was so sweet and attentive with him. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. She also helped tidy up the house and even took out our trash, which was incredibly thoughtful and appreciated. Everything was left in great condition, and her communication throughout was excellent. We highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again!

Karena was a wonderful pet sitter for us! Our usually skittish chihuahua mix even came to like sitting by jet and getting pets. Her calm caring energy really helps anxious dogs! Karena also sent pics and videos throughout our booking which was very reassuring. Overall, we highly recommend her!

Awesome experience - will definitely look to book with her again next time we're out of town. We received great pics while we were away. It was nice seeing our dogs snuggling up with her looking comfortable and relaxed. One of our pups was having some allergy issues while we were away. We received pics pretty quickly when she started looking a little rashy and asking us to confirm how we wanted her to handle it (as we had discussed before the trip). She reacted fast and our dog was happy and healthy by the time we got home with no rash or redness at all. We're very happy to recommend her. Our dogs and our home were in great hands while we were away.

About: I care for my friends and families dogs all the time and figure I would offer to others. I am pretty accommodating when it comes to what you need me to do with your pet! I have a part-time job, mostly nights, and am looking for another job to fill my time. I figured playing with some animals was the perfect job!! I don't work every night and am willing to work around my schedule! Depending on what you are comfortable with. I am willing to stay with your dog for an hour or so and get some homework done while playing! Or take them on a walk to tire them out til you get home!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have spent the last 9 years pet sitting for friends and family. I also worked in pet stores for a while, so I’ve cared for all animals. I’m a student over at UNCC, so I’m in the University City area pretty much 24/7. When I’m watching your pet, I treat them like my own. I’m super careful about making sure harnesses are secure on walks and staying on top of feeding times or meds. You’ll definitely get a ton of photo updates from me while you're away so you know they’re doing okay! I am currently on summer break so I am open to whenever you need me. I have a car so I am able to drive as well. I have plenty of experience with all animals. I have been pet sitting for years as well as worked at pet stores and handled pet care so I have experience with all types of animals.

Ethan was absolutely amazing with our anxious English Bulldog for overnight dog sitting! He took the time (and multiple visits) for George to become totally comfortable! He was excellent and very knowledgeable about dogs and their personality quirks! 10/10 will be booking him again!

I cannot say enough good things about Victory! She took amazing care of our mini Schnauzer, Ollie, last weekend, and I’m so grateful for her help. From the moment Victory arrived she made sure to follow Ollie's normal routine, which allowed him to get acclimated to her quickly. Victory's time with Ollie was seamless and non-disruptive for him, which I really appreciated. Not only did she give Ollie the best care, but she also took fantastic care of our house. When she left, everything was tidy and spotless. Victory went above and beyond by sending me daily updates and pictures, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals and goes the extra mile to ensure they’re happy and comfortable. I would highly recommend Victory to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She is thoughtful, responsible, and incredibly reliable! Thank you, Victory, for taking such wonderful care of Ollie and our home! Will definitely have Victory watch Ollie and our home again!

Leah was absolutely wonderful with Raven and Ginger, giving them attentive, loving care the entire time she stayed in our home. She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. The house was left spotless, and it was clear our girls felt comfortable and well‑looked‑after. We would happily welcome her back and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy, caring sitter.

Our two Goldens were happy campers when Katie stayed and house/pet sat with them. Her updates were enjoyed and she handled the medications perfectly. We will definitely book with Katie again.
