Top rated Southampton house sitters

“Samantha is kind, knowledgeable, entirely reliable and more than fluent reader and astute observer of pups: a truly gifted person. She kept us up to date with photos and stories & we were reassured by her care and insight.”


“Ash was a GREAT house and pup took care of Whitney for 10 days while we were away with tons of walks, meals and treats, cuddles and rubs and overnight stays, long walks and visits with her best dog friend, and even handled a contractor visit and an appliance installation! Both our home and our pup were in great shape when we got back- would recommend Ash for six stars if i could.”


“Nexsy was incredible. She helped on short notice and still snuck in a meet and greet. Polite, kind, and very understanding of our dogs. She went above and beyond during the time she spent with them by doing some helpful behavioral training. We felt they were in safe and capable hands. Highly recommended!”


“Adara did a fabulous job caring for our fur baby, Toby, in our home when we went away for the weekend! Toby is a bit (ok, VERY) quirky, and he doesn't do well with changes to his routine. Adara went above and beyond when caring for him. We felt very comfortable with her in our home, as well. Toby gives Adara a 10/10 for pet sitting, and so do we!”


“Ace is ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!! Ace is so caring, compassionate, and dedicated to the happiness of her Adopted Fur Babies.... Which funnels through to the Fur Babies Momma. Ace is in constant communication and asks questions to assist with the Fur Babies happiness. We looked forward to all the pictures that Ace sent us. We could tell from these pictures that our Fur Babies were well taken care of and happy. Ace follows the plan of care so well, of course, Clyde and Bella are there to assist. lol Ace was so respectful of our home and left it in the same neatness as upon arrival. If I could, I would give ACE 10 stars!!!!! 🐾🐾💕”


“Erin did a great job taking care of our dog and house. Our dog was healthy and happy when we returned home and our house was exactly as we had left it. We hope Erin is available the next time we travel.”


“We felt comfortable with Cynthia starting with the Meet and Greet. She sent daily updates on our dog for the whole two weeks we were away. She seemed to genuinely care for him and he really liked her too. We would definitely have Cynthia house/doggy sit for us again. (On another note: If you are having her doggy sit in your home, our house was spotless upon our return. She left it exactly as she found it!)”


“Julissa watched our three dogs today and did a fantastic job! All three of our dogs have severe anxiety and separation issues, but as soon as we left the house we received pictures and all three had settled right down and were very comfortable with Julissa. These three are very hard to handle at times and require someone with just the right personality and patience to handle them. We will definitely be contacting her next time we need a sitter.”


“Saige was super polite, pleasant, and caring for all of my dogs needs. She brought my boy to the dog park, for walks, and kept him entertained. She was a perfect houseguest, and I will absolutely be booking with her again.”


About: I’ve always had dogs in my house so I’m extremely comfortable with them. I’ve also looked after people in my neighborhood’s pets (cats, dogs, birds) for a couple of years when I was younger. Before my senior dog passed away, I was in charge of taking care of her in the summer while my parents were away. Her hind legs became immobile and she needed daily attention/ care, whether it be help eating, using the bathroom, or going up/down stairs. Along with this, I’ve done a lot of drop-in visits for friends and family’s dogs and cats for years. I’m essentially always available as long as I get a few days notice! I’m very flexible with times and cancellations as well. I’d love to walk, sit, or watch your pets whenever need be. In a client’s home for, say, dog walking, I’ll definitley always make sure your pup’s paws are clean before coming in! This was something my parents always made sure of when I was younger, so I do the same now. In the past, I’ve been lucky enough to have a lot of clients with large fenced in yards for the dogs to be able to run around in. With that said, I’ll always make sure they get their energy out. For client’s without as much running space, I try to bring the dogs on longer walks. Water is key so bringing that along on longer walks is important, and making sure they drink when they get home is too. My boyfriend and I were responsible for his foster puppy, so we had to follow a structured diet and walking schedule daily for her. This experience I think helps me be structured with other dogs too.

“Erin was wonderful! She filled in at the last minute, which we really appreciated! She was great with Bessie and Bo, and she sent us updates! Definitely gave us peace of mind that our pets (and our house) were in good hands! We look forwards to having Erin stay with Bessie and Bo again in the future!”


“Kylie was an ideal sitter for our cat Amelia! Before the sit, she asked thoughtful questions. While we were away, she sent us plenty of pictures and updates, as we requested, and patiently gained skittish Amelia's trust. When we returned home, our house was immaculately clean and Amelia was healthy and happy. We'd gladly have her back anytime!”


“Robb watched our two pups while we were away for a few days. They tend to be very timid with new people and it can be frustrating trying to get them to relax/listen to someone other than myself or my fiance. With that said, Robb was very patient with the both of them and really took his time to slowly gain their trust. By the end of the stay, they both were very comfortable. Robb was responsive and responsible. He listened to our concerns and was able to ease our anxieties being away. Overall we are very happy and will definitely use his services again!”


“Best experience! Super communicative sending pics /videos so I felt secure in my pups comfort after dedicated efforts that softened my ornery, timid chihuahua into a cuddle buddy eager for love and attention.”


About: I've been around dogs my entire life with experience ranging from hyper puppies to mellow older dogs. I've become the default care taker for any family members pet and love every second of it. My dog and I love going on walks and playing fetch in the backyard, she even sleeps on my bed which is the cutest thing ever. This is why I know how that special attention and physical activity is for a dog. I am capable of brushing and grooming the dog if they are well behaved. I've managed overnight care for a week while in school and making sure the pets were happy and well cared for. I'm reliable, organized and will always treat your dog as my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I have my own vehicle and a flexible part time job. I'm available on weekdays and weekends while always willing to work with your schedule to do what is best for your pets. I make sure that my dog is walked or taken outside every 4 hours. Having explicit instructions on how to care for your pet is appreciated so that I can ensure that the best care is provided. I always check to make sure that gates are closed in the backyard and that whatever environment your dog is in they feel safe and happy.

“Shawna provided wonderful care for our two small dogs who require overnight company. We are very satisfied with Shawna's level of care and would like to rebook her services in the future!”


“Betsy took great care of our dogs and home! She was very responsive and provided us updates during the stay. She asked good questions, making sure everything was done as needed. We already have her booked for another weekend.”

Brooke P.
“It will be difficult to keep my comments to 25 words. Brooke is my granddaughter and she is a wonderful and caring young lady. Besides being very caring for her grandparents, she has shown to be caring for animals. Brooke has been around animals for all of her life. As an infant my dog would curl up with her when she took her daily naps. During her grammar school and high school years, her family had 2 cats and a dog. She was responsible to help walk, play and feed them. She was the favorite member of the family for their dog to climb into her bed at night. Recently during the past year, Brooke took care of her Aunts dog and cat. When her aunt returned, her only complaint was the pets didn't seem to realize she was gone. Brooke took excellent care of them and kept their normal routines. I believe that animals have the ability to know who to trust. Whenever Brooke is around animals, they come to her and feel safe. Brooke is a responsible and loving pet caregiver and they all love her.”

Robb was so responsible with our 3 animals, 2 of which required quite a bit of work (meds, walking several times a day, etc). He stayed with the dogs all weekend and sent us regular updates via the app (pictures and texts). He was flexible on his arrival and departure time too! We would highly recommend him and will definitely be utilizing him again in the future! Thanks Robb :)

Jem is great! She house sat for us for two weeks while we were out of the country and cared for our cats, senior dog and elderly horse. She was in regular contact with us, with updates and pictures of our pets the whole time we were gone. Everyone was healthy and happy and our house was spotless when we returned. We would highly recommend Jem!
