“Took excellent care of Pasha and Eadan! Both seem happy and content upon my return. Very flexible with my stubborn shiba and his quirks with food and taking medicine he is currently on. Thank you so much!!”

“Sean was amazing with our girls. He took our husky on several walks a day and was very understanding of her shy manners. He sent several pictures and videos of them throughout their time together and it was obvious they had a lot of fun. The house was left in great shape and packages were brought inside. Booking with Sean made our vacation truly worry free!”

7. Sheila I.
“Sheila worked for me at my pet sitting agency. sheila is fabulous with the animals. She doesn’t just watch dogs and cats, but she did all of our agencies. Farm stays. She can care for any type of reptile bird mammal or farm animal. She’s simply amazing. Her knowledge is fabulous. it’s very difficult to get great employees in the pet sitting industry. Sheila takes every job seriously treats the animals as if they were her own. I never had one complaint except when she left. When she moved to the midwest, I had to replace her with another employee and the customers were devastated. I still frequently get comments about what a great Pet Sitter Sheila was and how her regular clients and their animals miss her. I’ll never find anyone to replace her. She’s just irreplaceable..”

12. Alivia A.
“Alivia has been an awesome dog sitter for my border collie! She’s watched him multiple times, even for several nights in a row, and always goes above and beyond to make sure he’s happy and well taken care of. I loved seeing the updates she sent, showing she took him on long walks to the park near my house—he got plenty of exercise and fresh air. I always feel totally at ease leaving my dog with Alivia, and I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Bri was absolutely AMAZING with both of our dogs that have opposite personalities (young pitbull and senior chihuahua). She gave constant updates and made us know they were in good hands. She also cuddled with them at night when they were both afraid of the storm. She made sure that all their needs were met and that they got their medications. We all love her and highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much, Bri!!!”

“Freedom took care of our kitties by housesitting for us for a week. Our kitties are alive and seem to be okay. Our house was about the same as when we left it. She doesn't smoke, and the cats seemed to like her when she did a meet and greet. I would give five stars except communication could be a bit better. We did get some updates though!”

19. Allison P.
About: I have done in house pet setting as well as occasional dog walking for families in the area. I love animals, am dependable and trustworthy. Currently, I have a foster animal who is 10 years old, so I love my senior dogs too. I have grown up with dogs since I was a kid as well. I am a college student who works part time and I am looking to make extra money to help pay for tuition. I have a pretty flexible schedule most days. I would be respectful of the homeowner as well as the dogs space. I would play with and walk the dog, and feed if requested. Ensuring that the dog is relaxed while also getting exercise.
