“Shauna stayed overnight with my 2 yr old Aussie for the first time recently. She is responsible, and communicated well throughout the stay. Her quiet, calm way with my high energy girl was a good mix and I will be requesting her help again.”

“Kaitlyn took great care of our two dog and cat and kept us super informed on what they were all up to while we were away. Made our trip that much more stress-free!”

“Christina recently stayed in our home for two nights and took excellent care of our 2 petite golden doodles. She kept our home very neat and tidy and sent several photos of the dogs along with updates on how they were doing throughout the weekend. She was very prompt in responding anytime I reached out, which I very much appreciated since this is the first time we have left them with someone other than family?”

“Lilly is an amazing sitter! We loved having her for our two dogs, Reagan and Mollie. She kept us informed throughout her stay and sent lots of pics with them snuggled up on her. They definitely loved her company. Highly recommend :)”

“Kate did an AMAZING job taking care of our three pups! She send pictures and gave regular updates each day! We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our fur pups were well cared for. Kate will be our go to dog sitter! 💕”

“Jace is just the best. I always feel so secure when he’s with my girls. This was my longest time away from them—six days—and knowing Jace was with them totally eased my mind. He sent pictures and updates and took great care of my home too. Can’t recommend him more highly!”

“Mary Elizabeth was a fantastic pet sitter. This was our first time using a sitter because we are new dog owners, so we were worried about all kinds of things. From the moment of the meet and greet, our dog was at ease. She came over for the meet and greet and got all the instructions. She sent plenty of pictures, updating us when she arrived and when she left. She accommodated a minor schedule adjustment with ease. She was exactly the support we needed - our Velcro dog is used to me being at home all day and my roommate works 12 hour days. Mary Elizabeth kept our dog company for several hours each day and it put us at great ease during my vacation. She tidied up the coming areas of the house and left a beautiful flower as a finishing touch. We look forward to using her services again and again.”

About: I’ve spent 10 years watching over my sisters 95 lbs active chocolate lab potty breaks so many walks, tricks, she was special everyone loved her. Had a way with disabled children and her calm energy helped them talk and love an animal again. She always had specials needs couldn’t be to rough with her her neck would link up I’d have to massage the pain away for her to calm down. Gave her meds when needed. I’m unemployed so ready to work at any moment. I love to work I like to stay busy I’m not a couch potato I’m active Pets will be cared for however the owner would like to sleep in the crate or just in his/her bed that’s fine. It’s up to owner
“We’re really grateful that we found Ariana through this app! This was our first time leaving our fur babies and she knew I was extra anxious about it. We have a dog that needs medicine twice a day and she handled it easily and professionally. She kept me up to date all weekend and it really helped ease my mind while we were gone. She was great and our dogs did really well with her. We will definitely book her services again!”

“We have 2 senior dogs and had our 3 y/o frenchie granddog that Faith cared for through the holidays. We came home to 3 well cared for pups. I will be happy to use her in the future. She is responsible and has a gentle way with the senior dogs. She comes highly recommended!”
About: I've had dogs since I was a kid and always just been obsessed with my own dogs, friends and families and dogs I see out in public. I have 2 small senior pups that I adopted from a senior shelter 2 years ago, they are 11 and 12 and are my world. I've had other dogs during my childhood and teenage years, as well as cared for friends and family's dogs while they have been on vacation and out of town. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care, walk, sit, and give your dogs a potty break. I have a lot of availability, so I'd love to care for your pup. Since one of my dogs is reactive, I only do pet sitting and visits in your home. This allows your pet to stay comfy in their own space, and I can give them all the love and attention they deserve without introducing any stress from unfamiliar dogs.
“Shawn took great care of my 2 dogs and 2 cats; especially my one dog who is reactive towards other dogs. He gave updates and pictures and made me feel better about leaving them with someone while I went home. He also was super helpful and flexible by being able to watch them an extra day when my flight had to be rebooked to the next day due to delays. If I didn’t travel for work (I’m only here for another 2 weeks) I would absolutely rebook with Shawn.”

About: I know that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I provide care that’s tailored just for them. From energetic puppies who need consistent training and play, to senior pets who deserve patience, gentle handling, and even medication support—I bring hands-on experience across all stages of life. What really sets me apart is the mix of reliability, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals. I make sure routines are kept consistent, homes are safe and tidy, and pets feel comforted while their families are away. Growing up with animals myself, I treat every dog or cat as if they were part of my own family—because to me, they are. As an Assistant University Tennis Coach, I work afternoons from 12–5, which leaves my mornings and evenings open for pet care. Since I’m completing my master’s degree online, I can arrange my classes around sitting needs. Plus, I always have weekends free—perfect for longer stays, extra playtime, or extended care. This flexible schedule lets me give pets consistent attention and companionship while their families are away. provide care right in the comfort of your pet’s own home, so they can stay relaxed and happy in their familiar environment. I follow your routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles—while also keeping water bowls fresh and litter boxes clean. For pets with special needs, I’m comfortable with administering medications and giving extra attention to seniors or high-energy pets. I also make sure your home stays tidy and secure, so you can return to both a happy pet and a well-cared-for space.
“Alexis did an amazing job house sitting for me while I was on vacation. She is great at communicating. I came home to happy and loved pups. I highly recommend her and will definitely rebook her again!”

About: Hello all! I’m Alijah, a 5th year student at Fresno State studying animal science. I have 5+ years of service dog training experience and have house/pet sat for almost 10 years. I worked at Whitie’s Pets in Fresno for just under 5 years and have hands on experience working with livestock through Fresno State. In addition to service dog/obedience training I also have experience puppy raising and training. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or inquiries! Thank you 🐾 As I am a full time student, my schedule does vary depending on the semester although I am very flexible and able to check in on pets in between classes during the week.

I have a fenced yard, though it is not very large.
About: I’m passionate about providing the best care for pets, no matter their age or needs. From my experience caring for Paris, who required medication on a schedule, I’ve learned the importance of attention to detail and consistency. I’m adaptable and enjoy creating a safe, enriching environment for pets to feel at home. Whether it’s taking a walk, giving medication, or offering companionship, I treat every pet with the love and respect they deserve. Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets I care for by creating a flexible, loving environment. My schedule is designed to ensure that every pet receives the attention they deserve—whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles. I make sure to stick to feeding, medication, and exercise routines to keep pets feeling comfortable and secure. Each day, I dedicate time to ensure that each pet feels like they’re getting the best care possible, no matter what their specific needs are. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. At my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure, pet-proofed areas for play and rest. I keep all harmful substances out of reach, and my space is designed to be cozy and calming for all pets. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, including their preferences and any special requirements. When caring for pets in their own homes, I maintain their routine as closely as possible, ensuring a familiar and stress-free environment. I communicate regularly with pet parents, providing updates and reassurance. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved every moment of their stay.

About: I am a lifelong dog owner with experience with a wide variety of breeds. Raised in a home with show poodles, I am currently dad to three pups. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and will pick up even the biggest dogs as if they were puppies. I don't just watch your pet. I get to know them and fill their day with enrichment, exercise, and snuggles. I can't wait to make a friend your fur baby! I work from home each day, but can visit pets before and after work and during my lunch break. For those I'm boarding, I'm available for constant love, attention, & exercise. I am available to board small dogs in my home. I have a large, fenced-in yard and three friendly dogs who love to meet new little friends! I can care for dogs of all sizes in your home using the same care and respect as I do in my own.
