“We were out of the country for 20 days and Cristina did a great job making sure our dogs were happy and healthy! She sent us several photos and videos every day and was very effective in communicating with us. The dogs were very comfortable with her. We will certainly request her services again in the future. If you are looking for a trustworthy and experienced sitter, I highly recommend Cristina!”


“Vanessa was wonderful and did great with our pets. It was 4th of July and one of our dogs gets nervous with fireworks, and she did great with Vanessa. We will definitely be booking with her again!”


About: I’ve been walking dogs for over 5 years, working with both paid clients and through volunteer work in my local community. I’ve handled dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including high energy pups and slower moving seniors. One of the most meaningful experiences I had was walking an elderly dog regularly until she simply couldn’t go anymore. As her needs changed, I slowed down our routine, made adjustments to keep her comfortable, and always made sure she felt safe and cared for. What sets me apart is my calm, consistent approach. I prefer to work alone, which means your dog gets my full attention no distractions or split focus. I don’t rush through walks or treat them like a quick chore. I notice small details, follow instructions carefully, and adapt to each dog’s pace and personality. If you’re looking for someone reliable, steady, and fully focused on your dog’s well being, I’m the right fit. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I walk dogs every morning and plan the rest of my day around those responsibilities, because I’m used to starting my day with dog walks, I’m consistent, dependable, and able to take on new clients without disrupting my flow. I also have flexibility in the afternoons and evenings depending on the day, so I can work with different schedules when needed. When I care for pets in their home, I treat the space with respect and follow any instructions exactly as given. Making sure pets are secure before, during, and after walks, checking gates, doors, leashes, and anything else that keeps them safe. I always double check that water bowls are full and that the pet is comfortable before leave. I don't rush through visits or take shortcuts. Whether I'm walking a dog or stopping by for a drop in, I stay focused on the animal and their needs. I understand how important it is to trust Someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously every time.

“Tyler is awesome! She did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 dogs (Cooper and Molly) and our cat (Cookie). We were at ease on our vacation knowing our fur babies were in excellent hands. We will definitely continue to have Tyler watch over our fur babies in the future!”


“Emily is one of the best sitters we’ve had and our dog lives her. Highly recommend.”


“Jocelyn stayed with our pets while we were away and did an excellent job caring for them. She made it a point of providing updates with pictures and videos. She came by to meet our two dogs a couple of times before she stayed to make sure that they were comfortable with her and they immediately felt at ease. I highly recommend her for any pet sitting need!”


“Danai was an amazing sitter for Bella and Rudy. She always kept me informed about what they were doing and they were well taken care. She loved on them as if they were hers. She is very responsible and trust worthy. I would recommend Danai to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies. Thank you Danai for everything!!”


“We are glad Christy accepted the task of caring for our two doggies. It was not easy as one of them required constant attention but she was able to do it! Thank you!”


About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them truly brings me so much joy! I’ve always had pets of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust to love and care for your fur babies like family. I’m super responsible, loving, and playful, whether it’s going on long walks, giving belly rubs, or just making sure they feel safe and happy, I put my heart into everything I do. Animals are a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet like they’re my own! I have pretty much a free schedule, and can do weekends and nights as needed! I’ll for sure be available most of the days and times. I treat every home and pet with the same love and care I give my own. I always follow any instructions closely, keep their space clean and cozy, and make sure they feel safe and loved at all times. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or cuddle breaks, I stick to their routine and make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I also keep pet parents updated with pics and messages so they have peace of mind while they’re away!

About: I have loved all type of pets since I can remember! I am very familiar with cats, big and small dogs, hamsters and chickens! I love them and would love to take care of them🫶🏼 I am currently working part time and I have a lot of free time to take care of your pets. I am also open for walks and visits I have a fenced yard, spacious house, AC, heater, and surveillance cameras to guarantee a safe environment. Also dogs will not be alone at any time!


“Jovana is an excellent dog sitter and was perfect for our chihuahua Lita. She anticipated our dog’s needs and was super caring and professional. Our dog truly missed her when we returned from vacation.”



“Julianna was AMAZING! She clearly loves animals and is so good with them. My dog is hyper and requires a lot of ~bougie~ care (strict diet, wiping down after walks, wrinkle care) and she handled it all perfectly. She went above and beyond by walking him one last time because I returned home. I also loved all the pictures updating me about their play time! I highly recommend Julianna for all your pet caretaking needs! ?”


“Sophia came right on time! She brought her dog along the stay because I have told her it was fine and it makes it easier on my dogs when it comes to other humans! Moo and my dogs got along so well, he apparently didn’t want to go. ? I’m glad I found my dogs a new friend and a trustworthy dog sitter! Would totally book her again.”


“She was awesome. I screwed up the times and extended the hours at the last minute because of a misunderstanding. She said no problem. She arrived early, met our dog and was awesome with him. He got lots of attention and cuddles. We are from Az and in town for a wedding…she put me at ease and we were able to enjoy the event knowing he was in good hands. Very sweet and would highly recommend!”


“Great pet sitting!!!! My dogs were happy the whole time we weee gone”


“I cannot stress enough how helpful and gracious Micki was to Lucas and I. She showed right when we needed her and was beyond gentle and caring to my pup, who suffers from severe separation anxiety. I would recommend her to anyone who needs someone to look after their pets. I will definitely request Micki to pet sit For Lucas in the future ?”


About: I've taken care of my own pets while I was growing up. From dogs and cats to horses. I've always love animals and seem them just as little kids, so I always try to be patience and kind in the same way as I am with human kids. I am currently a full-time student, so my schedule could be a little tight sometimes. But I'll be more than happy to visit your little friend if times work out. I am usually free all day for from Friday to Sunday. During the week I'm available from 4:30 pm to later evening. I will more than happy to play and take care of your doggie/kitty. Also, I will give you updates of your little fella. I try to be aware of my surroundings, look for anything that may lead to accidents, and change if needed.

“Desiree is an amazing person and was great with old lady. She is patient and sat with her to ensure that she ate and took her pills. I would strongly recommend her to anyone who has an elderly, sick dog. I will definitely use her again. Our Bouda loved her! Thanks again, Desiree.”


“Kamila, is amazing🤩! If you want anything less than 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️please look away!”


About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs. I will be absolutely sure to offer the best possible care for your animals because I know that they are a largely important part of the family. I will make sure that they are as happy and healthy as they can be. I am currently on Summer vacation so my hours are extremely flexible. Since it is getting so hot, the best option for walks would be either early in the mornings or later in the evenings. My dogs are very happy (and a little spoiled honestly). All four of them are rescues and I do my best to give them the greatest lives possible. I love them with my whole heart and I would love to meet more animals who trust me.

Johnathan N.
“When it comes to dogs, Johnathan is one of the most patient and caring people that I know. I have personally seen him train 3 puppies and each time the results were just amazing. He taught them to potty train outside of the house only. He taught them to sit, roll over, high five, shake hands, wait to eat until they are told and many other tricks. The most amazing thing that I saw was that he taught the dogs not to run out into the street even if the house gate was open. I personally witnessed the dogs run towards the open gate and right before taking another step outside of the gate they stop and just sat down and waited for Johnathan to lead the way. I also saw him take his dogs to the dog park more than once and I have to admit that his dogs were very well behaved around other dogs.”

Andreina Y.
“I have known Andreina for many years now, and since the first time I met her, she has shown nothing but love and kindness to me and people around her. She has 2 dogs, and everytime I am with them, it is like they are her children. I mean, if there is a way to get Andreina mad at you (that I know of), you just basically have to go against her dogs. If that isn't a great dog lover, I don't know what is.”


Renata S.
“Renata has taken care of my little dog Jelly during times when I was traveling or needed extra support at home. She has always gone above and beyond to ensure that my pets were not only fed and walked but also comforted, played with, and treated like family. I always reach out to Renata when I need anything related to my baby Jelly.”
