Top rated Saint Thomas pet sitters

“Elizabeth came through for us extremely last minute and went above and beyond what we asked for in our request. We will certainly be requesting her again for future pet sitting needs!”


“Loren takes great care of my boy and gives detailed reports about how the walk went, which is great for an anxious pet parent like me! 10/10 will hire again!”



“Daphne cared for my 17 year old cat who required multiple medications, and needed lots of TLC. I would not hesitate to use her again, as she is mature, responsible, and doesn’t just do the bare minimum necessary. She really spent time with my cat, and I received lots of feedback and pictures.”


“We had such a great experience with Allegra! This was her first time watching our two small chihuahuas, and she handled it like a pro—especially considering one of them is very skittish and typically afraid of new people. Allegra was calm, patient, and clearly has a natural way with animals. She was able to feed them their dinner (not always an easy task with our picky pups!) and made them feel safe in her presence. She was also incredibly responsive to any questions we had and kept us updated throughout, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’re so happy to have found her and would absolutely trust her with our dogs again!”


“Jailah was incredible! She helped me when I made several errors making my first booking. She sent great pics and was great with the dogs! Definitely will book again:).”


“Ashley did a wonderful job caring for our two cats while my husband and I were out of town. She was very communicative during scheduling and stopped by for a meet and greet before the drop-in visits. She followed all of the care instructions and provided descriptive and informative visit summarizes. She also really enjoyed caring for my girls! I would definitely book Ashley again and recommend her for anyone in need of a sitter. 🐈⬛ 🐈”



“Robin so kindly cared for my kitty who was staying on her own in a new home for the first time. Robin is highly compassionate and took many steps to try to ease my cat-baby's anxiety. She is an angel of a petsitter!!”


“Sarah was simply fantastic with our little guys. She took excellent care of them. We couldn’t have hoped for a better experience. The pups loved spending time with her. We will definitely use her services again.”


“Noah is our go to dog sitter whenever we have to go out of town. Noah is reliable, provides regular updates, plays with our pup and ensures that all of our pups needs are met. Knowing that Noah is taking care of our Benji when we’re away puts our mind at ease. I am so happy to have found this service and will continue to book Noah for future trips :)”


“Paula is wonderful! She’s very responsive and sent the cutest pictures of my pup during her visits. He’s very shy and she is wonderful with him. Book her if you get the chance!! Unless I beat you to it…”


“Deana was attentive to my cat, even though the cat was shy and just wanted to eat treats and go hang out. It gave me peace of mind that someone who likes animals, and likes cats, was able to come take care of my little buddy while I was gone.”


About: Growing up with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs, I have a wide array of pet care experience for animal friends large and small. Frequent dogwalker and pet-sitter with extensive knowledge of care practices. I am a remote worker and student in my day-to-day life, so I can frequently care for pets in my off-time in between classes and while working at home. I will be open in my communication about any issues or special needs that pets will need and trust that clients will communicate any special needs to me.

“Amazing and kind and fun! Highly recommend! Doc’s write-ups and check ins are so thoughtful and enjoyable to read. We look forward to hearing about our Sprinkle’s adventures with Doc!”


“Alyce is the best! Being my first time having a pet sitter, she’s made the experience so welcoming. She was very communicative about the pets or questions she had and even sent the cutest pictures making me feel very calm knowing my babies were being well taken care of. She’s definitely secured a spot as my go to pet sitter!”


About: Looking for a pup sitter? Look no further! Currently residing in the riverbend neighborhood, I have a house with a spacious fenced in backyard. I also have 1 friendly dog of my own that enjoy having your dog stay with us too (he is very hospitable)! If going for a long walk or run is their thing, I'm up for it! or if they love to romp around the dog park, even better! I know each dog will have unique needs, so if they'd rather lay on the couch, that works too! I have a full time job M-F, but am flexible when it comes to working from home or coming home during lunch if that is needed during their stay. I'd love to have the opportunity to care and love for your pal! Let's set up a meet and greet to make sure your dog feels comfortable around me and my dog!

About: I have worked for the humane society since I was 14, along with being a dog walker and sitter for family friends for my teenage years. During my undergrad I co-owned a dog with my roommate who knew me as the walk and treat lady. I also am a cat owner myself, so I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I am a grad student at Tulane who starts classes in late August so currently I am wide open, but once classes start I will be available early mornings, afternoons, and weekends! I value a comfortable environment for the pets above all else. As a cat owner and someone who worked with shelter dogs, I know how to read behavioral cues and respect your individual pet’s boundaries and needs.

About: I’ve had pets (dogs and cats) for nearly my entire life! I have a genuine love for all animals and am very attentive & patient. I currently have 3 cats with 3 entirely different personalities, a sweet senior dog, and a fiesty little hamster. Tell me your needs & they shall be met! I work part-time and have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I will work with your requests and be very upfront about expectations before the scheduled visits. I am offering to come to the pet’s home and provide care for them there. Before you’re away, we will schedule a meet up to go over everything. I’m happy to spend as much or as little time with your pets as you desire!


“Lindsey went above and beyond what anyone would reasonably expect maiking sure my diabetic cat ate and got his insulin shots. I can't recommend her highly enough!”

“I can’t recommend Jared enough! They took care of my cat for a whole month, and I felt completely at ease the entire time.
