“I would highly recommend Kaylee for in-house dog sitting. This was my first experience with someone staying in my home and for an extended period of time (7 nights). Immediately after the first night, it was a completely different vacation experience for me with Kaylee’s continued updates and pictures and seeing my dog so much more at ease being in her own home vs in someone else’s home/training facility. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Kendall is fantastic! Responds quickly, shows up on time, and very understanding of my dogs’ quirks. Kendall stayed at our house while we were out of town, and we’re so appreciative of the photos she sent us. I know they enjoyed being at home rather than in a kennel being boarded elsewhere. We will definitely have Kendall watch our pups again.”
“Lauriel is very responsible with Archie. She is communicative, prompt, respectful and always available. She respects my home, and genuinely cares for Archie. She sends me pictures and updates and checks in on him on days she is not with him. She is quick to respond and always willing to help me out!”
“Ashley house sat for us for 5 days. She's easy to work with, communicates clearly and frequently, and took great care of both the pets and the house. Most importantly, my dog and cat both love her!”
About: I have experience with all sizes of dogs and cats and I have plenty of time and energy to spend on your furry family members! I am currently between jobs so I'm happy to stay at your place and give your pet plenty of walks, love, and attention. I can accommodate specific walking and feeding times as well. I cannot host pets in my home because I have pets of my own, but I have house-sat and pet-sat for plenty of friends over the years!
“I can’t recommend Gabriela enough! She helped me out on very short notice, and I’m so grateful she was available. My dog can be a handful—he’s big (around 100 pounds) and very affectionate—but she handled him with so much patience and confidence. It’s clear she really understands dogs, especially larger breeds, and knows how to manage their energy while still giving them the love and attention they need. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs, Gabriela is the one!”
About: I've spent my whole life with animals, from dogs and cat, to reptiles and rodents. I love them all. I've cared for a number of friends and families fur babies over the years. I am a reliable caregiver who treats every pet like my own. Whether your pup loves long adventures or slow sniff-filled strolls, I make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I've cared for senior dogs and have experience with basic medication administration. I work in a school, so I have my summer wide open to care for your pets while you're away! I can be extremely flexible as long as I have advanced notice of your needs! When with your pets, I will treat them as my own and make sure all of their needs are met. I will make sure to respect your home and leave it in the same or better condition as when you left!
“Skyler was wonderful! She was here for our Poppy girl every night and kept as close to her routine as possible. We will definitely be reaching out to Skyler again for future stays!”
“Gabrielle was amazing and watched our dog for almost a week while we got married out of the country. Great updates, helpful questions and an amazing house guest. We will definitely the book with Gabrielle.”
“Ida was so great with Mabel and was an excellent communicator with us the entire time. She also was great to host and left our house cleaner than we left it. We will definitely work with Ida again the next time we travel!”
“Jennifer was so great with Remy. Treating my fur baby as her own, over communicating and sending the occasional picture! I will continue to book with Jennifer over and over”
“Philip is one of the best dog sitters EVER! He was so caring and attentive. Chewbacca, our oldest, is very anxious and hates our leaving; we came home to him being completely content, as if we never left. And Philip took on babysitting Mika, a five-month-old puppy with a TON of energy -no problem, they got along great. The house was well cared for, the communication excellent. I can't recommend him highly enough.”
About: I have over 12 years of hands on experience caring for dogs, including raising three of my own. I’m familiar with daily routines such as feeding, exercise, and overall care. What sets me apart is my reliability and attention to detail. I treat every dog with care and respect, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after as my own. I also make sure they get my full attention to give them a positive and caring experience. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m also available most days of the week and can adjust my time as needed to meet each pet’s routine and needs. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I follow any instructions from the owner closely and keep an eye on their feeding, walks, and overall care. I treat every pet like my own so they feel comfortable and cared for.
“Loved the duo teamwork. Took good care of my pooches and my home. My dogs immediately took to them upon meeting them. Also, I think they left my home cleaner when they left! Bonus! Would definitely use their services again. 🌼🐩”
“My cats and I think Faatima is absolutely fantastic! She is Reliable, great communicator, very caring trustworthy just absolutely fantastic! It is always such a treat when she can watch my fur babies! My cats are always so calm when I come home after she’s been here! I’m so grateful for her and will definitely use her again!”
“Morgan watched our elderly cat Bear in our home while we traveled. She did a great job with Bears daily syringe medication and took great care of our house while we were gone - it was very clean when we came back. She is a great pet sitter and we’d love to have her back again.”
“Oliwia was simply fantastic! My pooch absolutely loved her and Oliwia clearly adored her too. Oliwia is friendly, professional, and has great communication. I received daily texts with bunches of pictures, which helped me know my dog was very week taken care of while I was gone. Oliwia kept my house very clean, too. I will use Oliwia to sit my pooch again! Highly recommend!”
“Daniela was so amazing! She was able to accommodate us very last minute, she followed all instructions very well, she enjoyed playing with my pups, and sent lots of photos and videos. We will definitely be booking her services again!”
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have helped watch friends and neighbors dogs as needed. I have walked and cared for dogs ranging all sizes and ages. Me and my sister trained our dog from when he was only a puppy. I’m currently working as a nurse on day shift and I work 3 days a week so I should be able to take care of your pet the rest of the days if the week! I’m available for walks and drop ins as needed throughout the day! I would love to be able to take your dogs on long walks in your neighborhood. I would make sure the leash/harness that is typically used is on correctly everyone to make sure your fur baby has a fun but safe walk!

Philip took care of my dogs like they were his own. He was patient, attentive, and incredibly respectful of their routines and personalities. One of my dogs can be a little anxious, and Philip handled that with calm reassurance and experience. I got thoughtful updates, photos, and honest communication the whole time. It’s rare to find someone you can trust fully with your pets, but Philip is absolutely one of those people. I’m grateful for the peace of mind he gave me.
We just loved Kristina. She was so good with our fur babies. We received pics/updates daily. The meet and greet went well and the booking process was easy. Kristina is a good communicator and replies right back. We felt at ease and will be using her services again.
Ida was wonderful!! My cats are usually tea needy when I get back from being away. With Ida staying at my home giving them lots of attention, I think they barely noticed I was gone. She took great care of my home as well! I would absolutely recommend her for your pet and house sitting needs.
Marina was so great with my dogs! I have 4 medium to XL dogs that are well mannered but can be a handful. She handled all of their personalities and sent detailed updates and photos throughout the visit. We will definitely reach out to her again for our next trip! We are so relieved to find a sitter!
Thank you, Fatima for the updates on my fur babies. I love the pictures of them playing. Thank you for feeding them on time and being so patient and sweet with them. Thank you for keeping the lines of communication open with me. Thank you for breaking down the boxes I had left in my kitchen and putting them in recycling and my home was cleaner than what I left it. I apologize for that but I so appreciate you taking care of those boxes. I think the best part was when I came home and the cat TV was on and there were bird sounds and butterflies and it was just such a pleasant sound positive sound when I walked into my home. My cats were calm and happy. Thank you so much. !
Oliwia was simply fantastic! My pooch absolutely loved her and Oliwia clearly adored her too. Oliwia is friendly, professional, and has great communication. I received daily texts with bunches of pictures, which helped me know my dog was very week taken care of while I was gone. Oliwia kept my house very clean, too. I will use Oliwia to sit my pooch again! Highly recommend!
Morgan watched our elderly cat Bear in our home while we traveled. She did a great job with Bears daily syringe medication and took great care of our house while we were gone - it was very clean when we came back. She is a great pet sitter and we’d love to have her back again.
Zoe did a great job looking after our dog. She left the house as she found it which we really appreciate. She stayed late after our flight was delayed. She was responsive to our texts and sent pictures along with very good updates. She followed the instructions we left for our dogs care. We would definitely have her stay again.
