KiAnna was willing to arrive by 6:45 AM so we could depart by 7:15 AM. She took great care of Chester and we will be asking her to house sit and take care of Chester again!

Carol has been one of the absolute best pet sitters we have ever worked with. She has amazing experience working with dog rescues and a genuine love for animals that is clear to see. She is reliable, trust worthy, and an excellent communicator before and during the pet sitting. We have an English bulldog and a basset hound both of which can be quite stubborn and high maintenance and her expert level experience shows in caring for them. Thank you Carol, you are the best!

Julia was super responsive and was really patient with my dog. My dog was really struggling at the beginning when she stopped over but she continued to update me and ensured he was feeling comfortable! She was also so flexible with what I needed. She was great! Would recommend!

Joshua stepped in to help on short notice when I had to travel overnight for a funeral. (I just moved in and wasn’t even completely unpacked yet.) He visited before staying over night to meet my dog and me. He’s a great communicator and sent videos in addition to messages to let me know Scout was doing well. Joshua has a great vibe and made me feel relaxed about handing over my key to a person I just met. The house looked like no one even stayed here. He was great with Scout and I’ll definitely ask him for help on a regular basis.

Chris took such good care of our dogs. During our initial meeting, he asked follow up questions so that he clearly understood the feeding routine. He asked other questions that let us know he read the profile ahead of time. His daily updates provided excellent information and great photos. We are so happy for what Chris did. We highly recommend him. We will always check his availability when we are going out of town.

Mary pays lots of attention to our dog. Stewie is usually anxious when we've been away but the time and attention that Mary gives to her while she cares for her makes all the differnece. Mary also takes good care of our home while we are away!

Annie was great with our two little pups and our senior cat. She was very tentative to their schedules and routines. Follows directions and requests as well. She was the first (of a few) that our older dog actually warmed up to, immediately. Communication was great, with updates constantly. We'll definitely have her house/pet sit again!

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and for the last 6.5 years, I’ve had the pleasure of raising my own fur child, Melli Rose. She’s a black lab (my favorite breed) and is the chillest girl to ever exist. She’s great with other animals. I recently got engaged and am looking to make a bit of money on the side to help pay for the wedding along with getting to meet new pets! I work on a hybrid schedule—3 days remote, 2 days in the office. When I’m remote, I take my dog on multiple walks a day and would love to have yours join! I firmly believe pets are royalty and deserve to be treated as such. Nothing I do could ever repay them for their unwavering loyalty and unconditional love, but I’ll spend the rest of my repaying them with my love and affection.

Maeve took the extra step to go to our vets to drop off a sample when she thought Piper had a UTI. She was correct and then went back to pick up meds. Treated Piper like her own. Piper has anxiety and I felt very comfortable leaving her in Maeve's care

Alex was amazing with taking care of Duke (dog) and Lagertha (bearded dragon). Duke has been super skiddish with new people and she was super patient with him as we did lots of drop in visits leading up to this trip to attempt to make him more comfortable with her. During our trip Alex sent me photos and communicated concern when she noticed Dukes nose was a little dried out from him licking it. We got home and Dukes nose was all better and he was excited to see us. Have already rebooked with Alex for our next trip.

About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 16 years old. I have experience doing multiple overnight visits with both cats and dogs. I’m also confident handling energetic dogs on walks. I work from home and my schedule is very flexible, so I’m essentially available from Monday-Sunday. My neighborhood has a walking trail that leads into Stratton Brook Park so we can definitely go for some long walks if that’s what your dog requires. I’m a recent college graduate living at home with my parents. I work from home right now so my availability is pretty flexible. We have an unfenced yard but definitely big enough to roam around comfortably on an extended leash. I think on my profile it says no dogs allowed on furniture and beds, I don’t know how to change that but dogs are allowed on furniture in my house.

Gianna is amazing. She saved us when we were out of town and desperate to find a replacement sitter. She took such great care of our dogs and our house was spotless when we came home. Would 100% book with her again.

Chris was very responsive and communicative! Our dog is a 1+ year old pit who has been with us for less than a year, so we were anxious about subjecting someone else to his energy and antics. This was our first time leaving him home for more than a few hours, but all went well! Plenty of pictures from his walks and cuddles, and the house was in great shape too.
