“Thanks to Jennifer, we went away for the weekend and didn’t have to worry ONCE about our dog or our apartment! She gave us plenty of updates and photos, and was so caring toward our pup—infact she even went above and beyond and got her a ball since we had mentioned ours went missing recently. How thoughtful! Honey was so happy and calm when we returned. Thank you Jennifer!!”
“Julie - Anne was an amazing sitter to our dog - Cooper! Cooper really liked Julie- Anne and they spent a lot of time snuggling and out on walks. Julie - Anne is a delight and would recommend her!”
“We spent a weekend away without our pups, and I’m very happy with the care provided! The communication was good, and I came home to very happy dogs. Taking care of three big dogs can be a lot, but that wasn’t an issue for Mo! My dogs took to Mo right away, and I felt very comfortable leaving them knowing they were in great hands. If you’re looking for a sitter, I highly recommend Mo!”
“Cam was a great pet sitter! My dog is pretty senior and not always the easiest girl and Cam was great with her. We got pictures and updates daily and came home to a clean house and a happy dog and cat :) thank you, Cam!”
“If I could give 100 more stars, I would! Please don’t hesitate to book Rebecka. She is an absolute gem! Actually, I’m having a hard time giving this review since I want to keep her all to myself! 😉 Rebecka was incredibly reliable, went above and beyond to care for my dog (who got sick while I was gone) and kept me updated with photos and check ins throughout the stay. My dog clearly loved Rebecka, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Rebecka stayed at my home and after a long travel day, I came into a clean, tidy and organized house, with a very happy and well cared for dog. Perfect! Highly, highly recommended!”
“We will definitely use Jacqueline again. She took great care of our very anxious dog and dealt with a skunk incident with our cat, all while keeping our home tidy. She was so communicative during her stay and sent lots of updates. She is the best!”
“We used Tosya for a week stay with our two dogs. She was respectful of our home and took great care of our two dogs! She provided updates on them which was much appreciated and left the house as she found it. We would highly suggest Tosya for dog sitting and hope to use her again in the future!”
“Hannah was available last minute for an overnight stay when our original plans changed. She was able to squeeze in a meet and greet beforehand and put a lot of effort into helping our anxious dog feel comfortable. She sent updates throughout the stay and left our home clean and just how we left it. We would definitely use Hannah’s walking and pet-sitting services again!”

“Emily is a dream pet sitter! So kind, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. She took such great care of my dog and cat—sending updates and photos while I was away. She was super patient with my somewhat fearful, nervous dog and took such great care of my home. I came home to two happy pets and a spotless house! I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Don’t hesitate to book her—your pets will be in the best hands!”

About: I have experience with pet-sitting for small dogs, big dogs, cats, etc. I also have a little dog of my own. I love pets and they love me! I am working full-time at a home care agency and I have the option to work from home as well as in the office.
