“Danielle did a great job with my puppy. She arrived when she was supposed to, did all the extra puppy bathroom breaks/cleanups, kept her out of things, and provided me updates through the night. Thanks!!”

“We had such a great experience with Emily! Taking care of three animals is no small task, but she handled everything with so much care, attention, and professionalism. From the start, communication was excellent — we always felt informed and reassured while we were away. It was clear our pets were not only well taken care of, but genuinely cared for. Each of them has their own personality and needs, and Emily took the time to understand and meet all of them. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a well-kept home, which says everything. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Emily to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and trustworthy pet sitter!”

“Rhonda was so kind and provided detailed information on how my elderly dog was doing while I was away. Her communication allowed me peace of mind that my dog was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her, she took excellent care of my dog and even got her to eat her meds which she typically refuses to do’”

About: My experience includes puppy training and group integration, command training, end of life palliative care, medicine administration, grooming, and lots of recreation/enrichment/engagement! As for dog types all are fur babies and I'll see that they are treated as such! Currently in-between full-time employment, ready to devote my time to the lovely care of our fur companions. I tend to be free on the weekends and the beginning of the week. I follow set instructions laid down by the owners, any preferences or quirks of individual pets will be accommodated for your pets' and your family comfort.
“What an outstanding experience with Michele! She was so patient and loving with our boy. We received several updates and pictures during her time with Bob; not sure if we could ask for anything better. Would highly recommend!”

“Mac was in the absolute best hands with AnnaJulia and Raphael. I truly couldn’t have asked for better communication during my time away. I received consistent updates, great photos, and so much reassurance that my guy was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and loving life. It was clear he felt completely comfortable and at ease the entire time. After experiencing such a high level of care with a personal touch I can’t imagine trusting anyone else to watch Mac in the future.”

“Jillian was great! She came over to meet our fur baby a couple days before she was set to stay with him overnight. She got down on the floor and was playing with him and he was so excited! She sent us pictures throughout our trip so we could see how he was doing. Will definitely ask her to come back in the future!”

“Lauren did a wonderful job watching our older pup, Lucy and our new puppy, Ashe! She was timely, communicative and a pleasure to work with. We will absolutely use her again in the future. We highly recommend booking with Lauren!”

“Eliot was great! Our furry friends were well taken care of and were in great spirits when we arrived home. It was wonderful to have a trusted sitter watch over our pets and house while we were away.”
“Ievet was fantastic with our two pugs and kept us well informed about how they were doing throughout the weekend. We received lots of pictures and had tremendous piece of mind that our dogs were safe and well while we were attending an out of state funeral. Our planned dog sitter cancelled on us at the last minute and Ievet was quick to respond to our request.”

About: I have worked at a Veterinary Hospital for about 5 years, working to keep their experience as comfortable as possible, along with growing up with cats, dogs, and farm animals.I do work another job so for house/dog sitting I would be getting to the location usually between 6:30-7ish depending on location, so keep this in mind when considering booking me While I work full time my schedule is set so there will not be likely to have unexpected changes giving your animals a good structure to work with I can come to your location to let your dogs out/take them for a walk, as well as feed them and get in playtime while keeping them in a space they feel comfortable.
About: I have always had a dog growing up. Currently have a two-year-old pup named Anna K. I also house sit for a friend our mine down the road every now and then. I can be very flexible making myself available. If you can, a couple days notice would be better. But if not, you can still ask! Have tried multiple training techniques with all the dogs we have had, electric fence, leash, a tie-out cable, and some we eventually let out on their own when they are ready. No small objects around, especially as a puppy, try not to feed them anything but their required food.
“Ricky had won over Moxie… who is afraid of men in general - so quite an accomplishment that he can walk her and sleeps on the bed with him! Ricky is fabulous with our dogs and cats, and house-sitting when we travel. Highly, highly recommend Ricky!!”
“John was an awesome pupsitter and we would definitely hire him again! He was communicative, thorough, and very attentive to our 2 dogs over the course of the week that he watched them. Highly recommend him!”

“Rachael absolutely crushed it. As someone with senior dogs who have specific preferences and routines (also are high-maintenance as heck), I’m very picky about their care when I’m not around. Rachael was communicative, gave updates unprompted and responded super quickly whenever I reached out. She was able to take on staying at my place with my 2 cats and 3 dogs on very short notice as well. I can’t say enough good things, 11/10”
“Maggie is the best dog sitter! We were out of town for 2 weeks and she stayed with our pup the entire time. She sent frequent updates and photos. When we returned, the house was spotless and our pup was happy! So glad we have a dependable house/dog sitter on the island!”
