Top rated Saint John house sitters

“Destiny was AMAZING. She is super sweet, great communication and sent updates with how my old pup was doing. Highly recommend booking with her. Your pets will be in great hands!”


“I cannot possibly say enough awesome things about my experience with Eli!! He stayed at our home with our fur baby and kept us updated everyday. I received updates, pictures and videos which made me so happy and also helped me relax and enjoy my vacation even more knowing that my fur baby and house were in such good hands! I will absolutely use Eli again and refer him to others as well!”

“Stephanie took care of my pup for the weekend on short notice when our go-to sitter was booked. She took great care of our pup and he was happy and healthy when we got back home.”


“Alex was fabulous, highly recommend her! We didn't worry a bit about our dogs with her. She sent me pics of them daily. And she even sent my daughter pics of her "feeding" her fake fish. We will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Ashley is so sweet! She took great care of my Blue. Blue can be a handful but she handled her just fine! I appreciate her keeping me posted on a regular basis and I would definitely recommend her! Thank you so much for everything! 🥰🥰”


“Sabrina was amazing with my pups. Sabrina was very professional. Sabrina was quick to respond to messages and work with us on such short notice. If your looking for the perfect sitter, look no further than Sabrina.”


“Maegan was great with Bailey while we were away for a few days. She gave him lots of attention, kept us updated and sent the cutest pictures. We are very happy with how well everything went.”


“Andrew is a godsend. We've had him to sit for our Rhodesian ridgeback and our Staffy twice, for 4 days and 10 days, respectively, and we have both times come back to 2 happy and healthy dogs, who looked at us like we had only been gone a short while. They had neither gained stress weight nor become too skinny, and we could tell Andrew had been diligent taking them out frequently. He had mixed in their favorite food toppers and given them their medicine as we asked. He is a kind person, and you can tell he thinks deeply about things, and people's and pets' feelings. He even swept and tidied up, got our mail from our mailbox, and had our packages all neatly inside. He is as the proverb says, a good traveler who leaves no mark, leaving our house exactly as, if not better than, he found it. I can't say enough about the peace of mind Andrew has given us, especially the second time, since we already knew we could trust him. We were able to go to Disney World and have a truly magical time because we knew he was caring for our dogs and our house as we would have done.”


About: I've had dogs ever since I was born, I've walked and played with them. I've been dog sitting for neighbors since 2018. I've also volunteered at local shelters to help get the animals adopted by walking them around, and I helped keep their cages and surrounding area clean. I don't have any other commitments I'm obligated to, other than previously scheduled family engagements. I am happy to spend all my time towards caring for your pets! I won't take clients' pets in my home due to me having dogs and one of them is reactive towards other animals. However, this gives me better opportunity to bond with your pets as they won't be stressed from having to leave their home. If you have cameras in or around the home, please let me know prior to me entering, and I am perfectly fine with that! I can follow directions and schedules to a tee, and am happy to do what is needed to give extra love to your pets!

“Maddie was wonderful with my big baby of a greyhound! He’s usually very pouty and mad when I return home from a trip. But this time he was as happy as could be! I could tell he was well cared for and given lots of love. Maddie also kept in regular contact with me even though I was only away for a short time.”


“Perfect dog sitter! I have four dogs with varying personalities and she handled it like a champ. My dogs loved her! They also destroy my house usually but it was clean when we got home! She also sent pictures occasionally which I loved. Will definitely be booking again.”


About: As a dog sitter, my dedication to providing personalized care tailored to each dog's unique needs sets me apart. With a background in having dogs, I work well with puppies, helping them develop good manners and basic obedience skills. Additionally, I have experience in senior dog care, ensuring older dogs receive the attention, patience, and gentle care they deserve. My commitment to creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for every furry friend entrusted to my care is unmatched. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. Each day, I allocate specific time slots for feeding, exercise, and playtime with the dogs under my care. I prioritize their well-being by ensuring they receive regular walks, and plenty of love and attention. Flexibility is key, allowing me to accommodate any unexpected changes or emergencies that may arise while always prioritizing the health and happiness of the pets in my care. In both scenarios, whether caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for the pets. In my home, I ensure that it's pet-friendly, with designated areas for eating, sleeping, and playing. I maintain a consistent routine, including regular feeding times, walks, and play sessions. I also provide plenty of mental stimulation through interactive toys and games. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their routines and preferences while providing attentive and reliable care. This includes following feeding schedules, adhering to any medication regimens, and maintaining the cleanliness of the home. I strive to keep the pets' environment as consistent and stress-free as possible while their owners are away.

About: I love animals. I started walking dogs when I was 10. Friends and family rely on me to watch their pets, when needed. I’ve yet to meet a dog that doesn’t love me. I am retired so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available most of the time except when I’m visiting my grandkids or traveling. I can walk your dog as often as needed. I enjoy playtime but if your fur baby doesn’t, they can sit and watch tv with me.

About: I have grown up with dogs of all sizes, small, medium, and large. I have also dealt with several different breeds. I grew up very interested in learning about different dog breeds, and I love all of them. I enjoy being active, so you can count on playtime, unless they are couch potatoes, then I respect that. I worked at a dog grooming salon for a couple of months as a dog bather/grooming assistant and loved every second of it. It enhanced my knowledge on dogs and taught me the importance of introducing myself to a dog slowly with patience. I will make sure I do my best to make your dog comfortable and you comfortable with me around your dog. I am currently working part-time, but will have plenty of time to take care of your pets. My schedule is flexible, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am a college student so I am only working from May to mid-August then December-January. I will ensure that I have eyes on the pet at all times in the client's home so they do not risk getting into something that can damage the client's home or be a health risk for the dog. My current dog was a chaotic puppy, so I have learned the importance of ensuring I can always see the dog. If there are any restricted areas in the house by the owner, I will make sure the dog and I do not step foot in that area.

About: I am an experienced in-home/travelling dog sitter. Having dogs of my own, I realize the convenience and relief I feel when I know that my dog will be cared for in her own environment should we be away. I started off helping out a friend by watching her dog when she went on vacation, and have been dog sitting for over 20 years now. In addition, we have always had a family dog. Most recently our dogs have included Rottweilers and Pit Bulls. I have no breed bias, although my experience has primarily been with larger dogs. I love pets of all sort. I have also had cats and guinea pigs. I would be honored to help you by watching your fur baby. I have recently completed a certification in cat and dog first aid through the American Red Cross. Thanks for considering me! I currently work remote for my full time job, so that will allow me to spend quality time with your pet during the day as well as evenings for pet sits. It also provides me the flexibility to help out with occasional drop ins or walks. I will visit prior to the first event (drop in, walk or pet sit) to review the pet’s routine and any special instructions you may have for me. I want you to be able to provide direction and feel totally comfortable leaving your pet in my care.

About: I have a 6 month old dog I already take care of and just love animals and being around them and to just be there. I’m really free anytime of the week and can suit to your schedule also. I am available to work with your schedule anytime offered up. I have a fenced yard with lots of room to run around also with treats,toys,and a cage with a little dog bed if it’s needed.

In a very short period of time, she went from being our Dog Sitter to being a part of our family!”
