“Caitlin was an amazing dog and house sitter. She was professional, punctual, and communicative throughout. My older dog struggles with new people, and Caitlin met her exactly where she was at - giving her space and helping her through the weekend. As an anxious dog mom, I felt completely at peace knowing Junie was in her care. I highly recommend booking Caitlin for your next trip!”


“Sylvia took good care of JoJo for an evening. She displayed a gentle, warm approach with him and he was very comfortable with her. We will be glad to engage her again.”


“Karla left my house the same as I left it and was very understanding and accommodating to my difficult senior dog. I highly recommend her for your dogsitting needs!”


“Cheyana was absolutely amazing with my Harry! This was a short notice booking and I’m so grateful to have found her. Cheyana has such a calm and gentle energy that put Harry right at ease during our meet & greet, and I could tell she really cared about making sure he felt comfortable. I loved that Cheyana let Harry approach her at his own pace. She was very attentive and thoughtful, sending me photos and updates throughout the booking, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear she is very experienced and really knows what she is doing, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. I would wholeheartedly recommend Cheyana to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and experienced sitter! I’ll definitely book again!!”


“Kaitlyn was wonderful! She kept me very well informed about her stay, was quick to respond, and left the house perfectly clean! She even got my picky senior dog to take medication (which I struggle with). High recommend, will definitely reach out to her with any future needs.”


“My dog was more anxious than usual and RoseWillow was incredibly patient and responsive. She was early, responsible and incredibly gracious and I would love to have her sit again anytime.”


“Meredith was great with Waffles while I was abroad. She checked in regularly with updates and sent pictures. She also left the house in great shape when she left! Highly recommend.”


About: Growing up surrounded by a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and chickens, I've gained hands-on experience in pet care from an early age. Whether it's the playful energy of dogs, the independent nature of cats, or the unique needs of chickens, I've learned how to provide attentive and compassionate care for each. With years of experience, I understand the importance of routine, comfort, and safety in keeping pets happy and healthy. Your pet will be in knowledgeable and caring hands with me. I am currently going to school and have a flexible schedule. I am available Mondays 6am-10pm, Tuesday 6am-10pm, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 6am to over night. I am willing to stay at clients home to care for pets along with staying over night. During my availability I can let pets outside/hang out with them inside at any time, give needed medication, walk, and play.

“Highly recommend Latifa, she worked wonders with my two post-op spayed (formerly) stray cats who required some special attention. So glad she was able to accommodate us so last minute!”


“Aidan did a great job with our senior guys. We appreciated Aidan's quick responses and their gentle and confident attitude. Aidan also did a great job with our apartment and it was spotless when we returned. Thanks, Aidan! We hope to have you hang with the boys in the future.”


“Olivia was great with house sitting our dog. She kept him happy and safe, taking him on long walks and playing in the backyard. Took good care of the house and our pet tortise too! She provided good updates and gave us peace of mind. Certainly plan to rely on Olivia in future house sitting.”


“Seth was wonderful. My dog had surgery and she needed to be fed on schedule to take her medication and Seth followed all instructions. He didn’t just come in to walk and feed he actually spent time with my dog. He also sent me detailed messages and photos. It was a wonderful experience for me and my dog and I highly recommend him for any dog owner.”


About: Since childhood, I’ve had a deep love for animals and have always treated every pet as if they were my own. I believe all pets deserve the same love and care they so generously give to us. However, I am very understanding that each pet is unique in their own personality. As a proud dog mom to two very special but different pups—one being a rescue from the meat trade in South Korea—I’ve gained valuable experience in recognizing stressors and triggers in dogs that may be more reactive. I approach each pet with patience, understanding, and proactive care to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at peace. Just because an animal has had a difficult past doesn’t mean that sets the trajectory of their future. I am a small business owner which means I have an extremely flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets the time, attention, and care they ultimately deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I can adjust to your needs to ensure your furry friends are happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I prioritize consistency and routine so pets feel comfortable and cared for in every visit! Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust. I create a warm, stress-free environment where pets feel secure, loved, and at ease. I follow each pet’s routine, respect their space, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles to keep them happy and safe. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who can provide companionship and extra playtime for pets in my home. For pets who prefer to be alone, I have plenty of space to ensure their comfort and relaxation.

“Davis did a great job watching my white GSD Tundra while I was away, a few pre-visits to get acquainted as I have never been away from her and was unsure how she would do in my absence. They both bonded well for a great stree-free trip. I would strongly recommend Davis for any dog, small or large who needs to be watched while the owner is away. Great job! Thanks again”


About: I no longer have pets of my own. My children are grown ups and out of the house on their own. My home is empty. I still love my freedom but would love to take on sitting your pet. I work from home Monday-Fri and have lots of free time to take care of your pet in my home. Give me a shot please! My yard is not fenced in, however I am fully able to take your pet outside on a leash and for a walk to potty.

About: I've been around and cared for dogs my whole life. I grew up around large dogs like Shepherd mixes and Huskies, but I've also been responsible for the care of smaller dogs as well. I've lived with cats and currently have one myself that I "co-parent" with my housemate. I've also cared for rabbits, chickens, parrots, fish, turtles, frogs, and even axolotls! I'm just an all-around animal person, and I'd love to meet you and your pet :) I work remotely part-time on weekdays, and I can do this from anywhere with an internet connection, so I'm very flexible when it comes to bookings. This is how I'm able to prioritize your pet so they get the attention they deserve! I'm no stranger to following extremely specific special instructions for a pet. I know that every animal has their own personality, with likes, dislikes, and individual needs. I also understand that for each booking, I'm entering someone else's private home, and I make sure to maintain the utmost respect for that. Your pet and your home's safety is my top priority.
