“Deiana was amazing with our pup. We easily arranged to meet before the stay to ensure both of us and our dog was comfortable. Deiana was very observant and thoughtful. Frequent check-ins and photos throughout our stay. I highly recommend Deiana to all.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Alison! It was our first time leaving our 14 week old puppy and to say we were nervous and emotional would be an understatement. Alison sent us numerous pictures and kept in contact often. We were so at ease about being away knowing our puppy was loved and cared for. I am beyond grateful that I now know Birdie has a safe place to go whenever the need arises! Thank you Alison for treating Birdie like she was part of the family.”
“Colleen and her family were wonderful!! Colleen is very caring and thoughtful and obviously loves animals. She went the extra mile. The daily reports she sent were very colorful, descriptive, enthusiastic and delightful! We enjoyed the daily photos. Lily was smiling in many of the photos! She obviously had a good time. We feel she was very well cared for and we've already booked the next visit.”
“Carolyn does an outstanding job in the 2 things important to us. Care and communication of our Matty's activities each day. She loves dogs and for one week loved our doggie too ! He likes to eat certain foods ( that we provided ) and only when he's ready ...she handled that well too. lots of fun pictures during the week of walks and car rides. she did an A+ job.”
“Peter and his family took great care of our 2 active golden retrievers! They made our dogs feel at home giving them plenty of comfy spots to snuggle up but also gave them lots of play time both in and outside! I would definitely recommend Peter and his loving family to pet sit.”
“From our very first meeting, I could tell Sylwia was special! She took so much time and care to get to know our pup Lucy, understand her, and ensure that Lucy would be comfortable and successful during her stay with Sylwia. She was incredibly thoughtful and overall provided a fantastic experience- sending updates throughout the day, making sure that we are comfortable as well. Would absolutely recommend Sylwia!”
“Sharon was an absolute pleasure to work with!! She made my dog feel right at home and treated him as if he was her own! She kept me posted daily on what he was up to and how he was doing. I felt completely comfortable leaving Louis in her care and I could not recommend her enough. I will definitely rebook with her in the future!!!”

About: My lifelong love of animals has been shaped by caring for a wide range of species and by growing up in different parts of the world. This exposure fostered a deep curiosity for animal behavior, individual personalities, and the subtle ways animals communicate their needs and love. I bring this observant, thoughtful approach to every pet and home I care for. I am home most of the time—4 out of 7 days I stay home all day, and on the other days I leave briefly but return often enough to walk, feed, and give attention to your pets. I love keeping a consistent routine so pets feel safe and happy. I prioritize your pets’ safety and comfort at all times. Dogs are always on leash when outside, and I use crates as needed when they are outdoors or resting. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks in the neighborhood or nearby parks while keeping them safe and under supervision. My main priorities are adaptability and flexibility to the pet and the parent's routine, and wants.
“Rosalynn and Angel were absolutely wonderful with my old dog. They did a great job of communicating while I was away and my girl came home happy. I will definitely be using them again in the future! So nice to know a trusted sitter in the area.”
“Samantha and her family did a great job taking care of Louie overnight. He enjoyed being able to run around their backyard and was a happy boy. I would recommend Samantha and use her services again. Thank you!”
About: I had taken care of family members dogs and cats many times, and I love having animals around. I have two cats, but I am able to separate them in a different part of the house if needed. I currently am an online student for snhu, my major is digital marketing. So I am usually at home all day, and available to pet sit go on walks and whatever needs are necessary. I have a big yard and a nice neighborhood for walking so dogs will love that. I also am able to put my two cats in a separate part of the house if necessary.
“Yenny and her family where extremely amazing 🥰 my Winnie was happy being around them for being her first time spending the night out of her comfort 🩷🫶🏼 she did well I will definitely book again in near future with yenny. Definitely recommend her 💯”
“We had such a great experience leaving our little Luna with Jacob and Willie (his friendly dog!). Jacob was super communicative with little reassuring updates and made sure to provide a cozy and comfortable space for her to stay while we were on vacation. Were really grateful for the experience and would absolutely recommend him to anyone who’s looking for someone to care for their pup!”
“Yet another fantastic stay with Paul and Megan! Melody was happy to see them and was well loved and cared for, over her 8 days stay.We enjoyed picture updates of our dear puppy across time zones”
“Shelby watched our 2 Golden Retrievers (8yo & 7 months) recently. We were so relieved to have found her, as we were worried about leaving our puppy for the first time, and having a new pet sitter for our older dog. We felt at ease as soon as we met her for a meet & greet. The boys got lots of attention, were very well cared for in her lovely home and large fenced back yard. She sent photos and updates while we were away, which were greatly appreciated. We will use her again for sure, and can highly recommend Shelby!”

I am so glad that we have found such a caring and loving family for Twinkle. Twinkle had a wonderful stay with Julia and her kids. She got a lot of love and had so much fun playing with the kids during her stay. Julia is super flexible and super responsive. She sent us awesome pictures/videos almost daily and kept us well informed about Twinkle. I will definitely come back to Julia for Twinkle's care in the future when we are out of town. Thank you so much, Julia!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
