“Zhanna was wonderful—communicative, thoughtful, and patient. Even dealt with my alarm going off during her visit with grace. My dog loved her and had a fantastic time—will definitely be rebooking for the future!”


“Kailee was excellent! We got pictures often of Katie! She was a great communicator and kept us in the loop appropriately. I would recommend her to anyone.”


“What an amazing experience we had with Blaize. She communicated with us every day, let us know how things were going and was so patient with our dog whom has major storm anxiety! She left our house very clean and we will definitely look to use her again! Highly recommend”


“Miles was amazing! Took amazing care of my 4 month old Shiba Inu while I was away for a few days, alone with 2 of my reptiles. (One being special needs) It was so relieving having someone trustworthy stay at my home to keep an eye on things for me, and take care of my babies.”


“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Emily! She has taken such amazing care of our dog, and it gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such loving and capable hands while we were away. Emily is incredibly reliable, attentive, and clearly passionate about animals. She kept us updated with regular check-ins and photos, which we really appreciated. Our pup absolutely adores her, and it’s easy to see why—she treats him like one of her own. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and genuinely caring sitter, Emily is it. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking with her again!”


“We booked Rachel for a week long house sitting stay for 2 dogs (one that is still healing from a broken leg) and she exceeded all expectations! She provided updates at least daily, sometimes even more - and I loved recieving the photos and cute lil comments about how their days went! We came back to a clean house, she even washed our sheets so we didnt have to worry about it when we came home. My babies were very comfortable with her, and she even stopped by twice before the booking to allow them to get used to her, which kept our Chihuahua from having any separation anxiety. She asked informed questions and made sure she had a thorough understanding before we left! We informed her that we got sick from the cruise and came home to some cans of chicken noodle soup, shes super sweet! I printed out any information I could for her about anything that could possibly come up (as I would have spotty service being on a cruise) and she followed them to a tee. She offered to help with our house plants too which helped immensely! She also looked for solutions to anything I noted as if they were her own dogs. I told her to help herself to whatever in the house, yet she still replaced it, I can not recommend Rachel enough. This was the first time we have left the dogs at home with a sitter, and I was very nervous, but she made the whole process extremely comfortable and I can’t thank her enough. We found our go to dog sitter and dare I say possibly even a friend! Thank you again Rachel 🥰”


“Very reliable, dependable, and all around awesome to work with. Thank you. Sarah!!”


“Only 5 stars? He gets 10!! My 2 pups were pretty calm when I got home which meant they had lots of fun and attention! It's the first time I've left them in years so that first time is no easy task. Kosmo and Finn took to Chris immediately! Is was so heartfelt to get updates and pics, knowing they were in great hands! I highly recommend Chris. He's easy to work with, a dog whisperer, very flexible and is very clear with communication and expectations! Just don't book him too much so my puppies miss out!!!”


“It was great working with Daysia. She was very attentive to all of my dog's needs, asked me questions to make sure all the bases were covered, and even sent me pics to help set my mind at ease.”


“James was fantastic with our dog Robyn! He stopped by for walks and check-ins while we were away, and he made sure she was well taken care of the entire time. He kept us updated with messages and photos, which we really appreciated. Robyn seemed super happy and relaxed when we got home, it was clear she was in great hands. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’ll definitely be reaching out to James again. Highly recommend!”


“Maja was an absolute gem and it was obvious by some of the pix she sent that my fur balls were perfectly content while I was gone. She sent updates and made me feel comfortable that she was there. She’ll be my go-to sitter when she’s available”


“Darienne was fantastic! She put my mind at ease about being out of the country and leaving my Bumble at home. She communicated very clearly with me and I knew he would be safe with her. Very happy to have found a sitter again for any future trips!”


“Rex was so fantastic with our high energy puppy. They made sure that our pup got lots of enrichment and they even went above and beyond and did some training. Rex was very communicative and shared sooo many wonderful photos and updates. I would 1000% trust Rex with any pet, and I would love to hire them again. Thank you Rex :)”


“Sydney was fantastic taking care of our two standard poodles, as well as taking great care of our home. She gave us daily updates and was extremely responsive when we called or texted to check in. Highly recommend and will be using her again!”



About: I'm a flight attendant for an international airline and my husband and I travel too much to have a pet of our own. May we borrow yours? We're not interested in making a business in dog care. We dog sit purely out of our love for dogs. Growing up, I had Schnauzers. Aaron had Dachshunds. We spent a couple of years fostering for the Humane Society (mostly pitties) and a local bull terrier rescue, but now that we don't have a house and yard, it just isn't possible anymore. When we dog sit overnight, if your dog is used to sleeping in the bed with you overnight, we're happy to also allow it. We will accommodate your dog's normal routine. We firmly believe in consistency with training, so let us know if there is anything you've been working on! As far as special needs... Yes, we have experience with a lot of special needs dogs, but we don't want to set the expectation that we can provide professional-level medical care. We'll need to consider it on a case-by-case basis and we'll be honest about what we can do confidently when it comes to your dog's medical care. When I'm not traveling, I'm home. My husband works an irregular schedule. Your dog will always have me, my husband, or both of us there. I won't book a dog sitting if I'm traveling. Tons of love and sticking to your dog's routine as much as possible. I follow whatever type of feeding schedule you have for them and whatever else. Just let me know!

“Rob was great, sending me updates on arrival and departure time, vacuumed, moped, tidied up before I arrived home. I felt at ease with her taking care of my animals.”



“Marlene was great! I loved the daily updates, pictures of our dog and knowing he was so well cared for while we were away! We will definitely book with Marlene again!”


About: Dedicated and experienced dog sitter with 30+ years of providing compassionate care to dogs of all breeds. I don’t work so I am available all day/night. I only take 1 family’s dog/dogs at a time, my dog passed away recently and I offer a clean and safe environment for pets. I grew up with dogs and have taken care of many dogs throughout my years. I’m available to house sit or boarding at my house. I take this job seriously and will treat your dog as if my own. I have had dogs with special needs (blind,deaf,seizures,special dietary restrictions,separation anxiety) I am very knowledgeable to care for your pup while you are away. My schedule is very flexible to meet your dog’s needs. I have plenty of time to play, walk and give your pet my full attention. I would love your fur baby to stay with me or I can stay at your home if they are more comfortable. I have a medium size dog crate if needed. Plenty of toys, beds, and even a dog car seat and stroller if your pet is unable to walk far. I recently lost my dog and would love to open my heart to watch yours.

“Alyssa took care of Luna at her home while we were on vacation for four days/three nights. Luna took to her immediately and it was clear that Alyssa has a lot of love and experience with dogs. She was loving and caring and sent us a photo of Luna twice daily with a sweet and fun caption. Alyssa has a wonderful dog, Ace, and Luna and Ace played well together in her spacious fenced in back yard. We were comfortable and enjoyed our time away, knowing that Luna was loved, well taken care of and also well exercised. She had a sweet playmate with Ace the whole time which is a real bonus! We will definitely ask Alyssa again to take care of Luna, when we have to travel without her. Thank you Alyssa for taking care so wonderfully of our Luna !”


“Samantha was absolutely amazing with Bella! She has excellent communication and sent me photos a few times a day which made me feel better as she is an elderly pup. I would highly recommend Samantha for any of your pet sitting needs!”

She has cared for many dogs throughout her life, and it shows in how naturally she connects with them—she’s patient, loving, and understands their needs. Kathleen also has a great deal of medical knowledge, which gives me (and would give any pet owner) peace of mind that pets in her care are safe and well looked after. She is the person I trust completely with my own pets, knowing they’re treated like family. Any dog or pet would be lucky to have Kathleen as their sitter or walker. She’s attentive, reliable, and genuinely passionate about animals. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”
