9. Jennifer W.
“Jennifer is attentive and loving, responsible and able! I would always hire her to care for my pets! She is a caring pet friend and caregiver”
10. Ai O.
“Ai has to be the best pet caretaker, I have had for my pets, over the course of 10 years. I struggled to find people to care for my late dog, Rosco, and my territorial cat, Azora. Both had very strong and contracting personalities, which made it difficult to keep them in order. Especially when just meeting them. Often my pet sitters wouldn't last longer than a few weeks, when realizing how high maintenance my pets could really be. This was true until Ai arrived. Ai displayed adaptability in getting to know my pet's likes and dislikes. Often Ai would teach me things about my pets I never knew. Furthermore, they are patient and relaxed, which in my experience, often led to Rosco and Azora having the same energy. Whether it was just during a work day or weekend trips I knew I could always rely on Ai to care for my pets as if their own.”
11. Mia L.
“Mia is responsive and sends great pics!”
12. Kendra H.
“I am delighted to recommend Kendra as a pet sitter for your dog. Kendra and her sons love dogs and are eager to welcome furry friends to stay with them! Working from home allows Kendra to provide all-day companionship and attention, ensuring that pets feel safe and loved. Her fenced-in backyard is a fantastic space for dogs to play and explore, giving them the freedom to enjoy the outdoors in a secure environment. She will be thrilled to have a dog to accompany her on her walks in her neighborhood. I have complete confidence in her ability to provide a nurturing and joyful experience for any pet in her care. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and caring, Kendra is the perfect choice!”

14. Amelia N.
“Amelia is quite literally the best! I needed a last minute walker and saw that she was a college student home on break. Best decision! She kept me updated the entire time on how my Bentley was doing and made sure he was well hydrated before returning him back home. Amelia is the sweetest! For sure has a long term customer in me.”
15. Abby R.
About: I have loved dogs all my life and am grateful to love and have loved two gentle-giants, Louie the St Bernard and Brutus the Berner. Taking care of these big guys is no easy feat, and in edition I have taken care of smaller dogs while babysitting for years. While I am no expert, I have experience training, socializing, and grooming dogs. After graduating from college and working on the campaign trail, I am home and hoping to fill some of my free time pet sitting. I have full flexibility these next few weeks and am looking forward to meeting some of you! I understand that not all dogs are the same and am a patient sitter. I love being outside so this is a priority for me, which is another reason why I am so interested in caring for pets. I have a very social St Bernard at home who gets attention 24/7. This is my status quo, and your pet will receive nothing less.

“I booked Radha to walk Minnal last minute when I was stuck in the city longer than expected. Radha was super prompt and responsive and happily agreed to walk Minnal and feed him. She sent super cute photos of Minnal and I was happy to see they went on a little walking adventure together! Minnal was exhausted and passed out when I got back! Thank you, Radha!!”
19. Kat M.
“Kat was wonderful! Addie seemed to take her quickly. Kat was timely and responsive, regularly updating me on Addie’s walks. It’s clear she really cares about us, our pets, and the bond we share. We will definitely be using Kat again in the future!”
20. Molly M.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Molly as a pet caregiver. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and has a genuine love for animals. Molly goes above and beyond to ensure that pets feel secure, happy, and well-cared for, whether it's through play, exercise, or simply offering companionship. Her kind nature and thoughtful approach make her a standout in pet care. I trust Molly completely with my pets, knowing they will receive the best care possible in her hands.”
