We are very pleased with the exemplary care that Alexa provided to our dog Finnegan during a several day stay in our home. Finnegan warmed up to her within seconds of meeting her. She was proactive in communicating with us regularly, providing much-appreciated pictures. Alexa has been a caring, reliable, and responsible sitter whom we’d recommend to others and plan to call upon again!

Victoria took wonderful care of our puppy for several hours and did an amazing job! She made sure our pup was well fed, played with her, and kept her happy the entire time. She was very organized, attentive, and followed all our instructions perfectly. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our puppy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!

About: The highlight of my dog's day is going on his walks, I want to make sure every pup gets to have theirs! Over 5 years of experience walking my own and my friends' dogs of different breeds and sizes. Experience with shy, timid rescues as well, my own dog is a pit/lab mix rescue from Texas and I was able to build up his confidence through regular routine walking! I have plenty of free time during the week to give your pup a quality walk, currently in between jobs so I am available most days. My dog, Bowie gets at least two 20-30 min walks a day with the occasional hike and dog park visit, I love to make sure he is active and having fun with water on hand for hot days or extra long walks to make sure he is hydrated throughout.

Milena was wonderful with my 7-year-old pug Ginger! I was scared to leave my furry baby but was very pleased with how responsible and caring Milena was during the entire week I was away. Ginger was well-cared for. Milena stayed overnight in my house and followed my doggie instructions carefully and took good care of the house, too. Thank you, Milena! I will call you again when I need help with Ginger!

Lisbeth is a reliable and responsible sitter who took excellent care of our dog in our home this past weekend. As soon as he met her, he immediately connected to her, which put our minds at ease. Throughout her stay with our dog she followed through with everything asked of her and kept us well-informed with daily pictures. I would definitely recommend Lisbeth and plan to seek her services in the future!

David took care of everything and everyone—from our Velcro dog who became his best bud to our 16 year old very shy kitty who ended up snuggling up and sleeping with him. It was so nice to come home to happy healthy pets and everything at the house taken care of. I highly recommend David and will be seeking out his services again. Thank you!!!

About: Hi! I’m Lindsay, a 19-year-old college student originally from New Jersey. Some things about me that I do on my free time is going on runs, going to the beach, and spending time with friends and family. I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, my family always had dogs, and now currently have a tabby cat. I’ve frequently helped care for pets belonging to friends and relatives as well. I will always enjoy spending time with pets whether it be on a walk or just hanging out with them to keep company! I also have been caring for pets through a different app as well providing walks, sittings, drop ins, etc with a 5 star rating! The same love and attention I give to my pet will be the same for yours! I’m currently working part-time at Ben And Jerry’s. Usually Mondays, Thursdays, Friday, Saturdays. However, I work around my schedule as a pet-caregiver. I understand how important it is to feel safe and comfortable when leaving your pet in someone’s care. I promise to treat your pet with the same love, respect, and attention that I give to my own. Your pet’s well-being and happiness will always be my top priority, and I will make sure they feel secure and cared for every step of the way!

She’s amazing with dogs! She did house sitting and dog sitting for us. She had previously dog sat for our dogs and then we had her booked again, but then had some last minute big family changes and suddenly inherited 2 new dogs. With the big changes we had to switch around which dogs she watched for the week. She was extremely accommodating and understanding. Also, those dogs had been through some recent trauma and she worked so hard to build their trust and by the end of the week they were cuddling up and loving on her. Would highly recommend her services.

About: If you're looking for a dog-lover and loyal caretaker, I'm here for you and your pet! I'm happy to provide a loving space for your pet while you travel, or walks when needed. I work from home mostly--I am in the office two days a week (every Tuesday and Wednesday.) All other days I am flexible with my schedule. Pets are welcome on my furniture--while they are here, they are free to make themselves comfortable! Playtime, walks and car rides (if they like them) are encouraged.

Melinda is amazing! She came to meet my pup ahead of time, developing a real rapport with her. During her time with my puppy, she communicated very well, took great care of my dog, and showed her real love. She also did a little dog training, which was very welcome. Love Melinda and our experience with her.

About: I started my experience dog walking 2 years ago for a professor’s friend in Winchester, Virginia. Twice a week, I would walk her hyper pups. She then recommended me to her father, whose dog I began walking twice a week as well. From there, my mini business boomed through word of mouth. I began dog sitting in people’s homes as well for multiple individuals for varying time spans. Most of the dogs I interacted with were seniors and required extensive care. However, all dogs owners loved and recommended me to others! I still walk the original dogs and add in others as my schedule allows with two other jobs. I am sad to leave my extensive clientele in Winchester, but I am moving back to New Jersey for graduate school and excited to meet new puppy friends!! For the summertime, I am incredibly flexible with nothing planned. I prefer weekly walks / drop ins, but also like sitting as well. In August, I start physical therapy school at Columbia University so my availability will decrease but I’d be willing to provide services on nights / weekends. During breaks, my availability will open up again! Whenever walking / sitting, I respect the owner’s rules, no matter what. I long to maintain utmost cleanliness and adherence to routine as physically possible. I am also very communicative and honest, building trust with my clients.

About: I am a life-long animal lover. I grew up with dogs, a cat, a rabbit and anything else I could convince my parents to house! I've been riding horses since an early age as well. Connecting with animals has always come very naturally to me. I truly enjoy caring for and loving animals. My first job, at the age of 13, was as a daily after-school dog-walker, for my neighbor's Old English Sheepdog, Winston. That 30 minutes was the highlight of my weekdays. Animals and their pet parents have been finding me ever since! :) I work in the school system and my days end at 3:10pm. I am available most weekdays after 3:30pm for drop-in visits and walks. I also have weekend availability. My schedule will be much more open & flexible during the summer! During visits, I focus purely on your pet and his/her needs. Drop-ins are normally feeding, a potty break & fresh air, some playtime, water change, a treat (if that's okay by you!) and of course, lots of LOVE. I will tailor the play activities to your pets preferences and energy level for the best experience. During walks, I will remain consistent with the usual pace and route. My goal is for your pet to receive the right amount of activity & stimulation and feel comfortable and happy in my company. I will always make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and looked after as if he/she is my own. :)

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently have a senior small dog of my own, so I understand the patience and attention pets need at all life stages. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and helping them feel loved and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! I recently graduated with my master’s degree and currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and lots of attention and companionship for your pets. I work hard to provide your pets with comfort and safety. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel as comfortable as possible. I’m especially patient with shy or nervous pets and will always provide a calm, caring, and attentive environment.

Amanda is amazing! My dog is recovering from a back injury and I needed someone on short notice to spend the day with him while I was at work. Amanda made sure he was comfortable and not moving (as the doc put him on bed rest) the entire day. Amanda was super communicative, sending regular updates. You can tell how much she loves animals - she poured so much love into my dog. Lastly, Amanda treated my apartment with the upmost care, and left it better than she found it. I highly recommend. Thanks again!
