“Cheyenne is our go to sitter for our cat Emmie. We have used her a few times now and are so pleased! She is professional, punctual and has great communication. She is wonderful with Emmie and Emmie adores her. If your looking for a sitter and have peace of mind while your away Cheyenne is definitely the sitter you need. We will hire her again and again.”
“Christina is amazing? She stopped by to meet the cats and you could tell she had genuine interest in taking great care of them. And she did. Each visit had details of their time and full of pictures. She made sure to split enough time between 2 time a day visits without it being too long…perfect! Our furry friends were in great hands.”
“Turin did an amazing job with our cat Noah! For the first time we left him for 10 days and felt a bit uneasy about it, but Turin took great care of him. She sent pictures daily so we always felt comfortable and Noah seems to have taken a quick liking as he was even photographed on her lap! Thanks so much Turin! Highly recommended and whenever we go away again I will be sure to call you.”
“Natalie is absolutely wonderful! I reached out last minute & she was able to accommodate us. We received lots of updates & photos which we were so appreciative of! 100% will be using her in the future- highly recommend if you’re considering to book- do it!”
About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. For over five years, I’ve provided reliable pet care for dogs and cats, from daily walks to overnight stays. I’m experienced with all ages and temperaments, including senior pets and those with anxiety. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe and loved Currently i work a full time job M-F 8-4pm. Open to pet sitting after work. Available all day on weekends. In August I will be starting law school and my schedule will open up to Fridays/Saturdays- Sundays all day I can accommodate pets who prefer alone time or need crating, and I follow any specific routines or instructions to make your pet feel at home. Cleanliness, comfort, and supervision are always a top priority.
“Kerri was wonderful with my little old man Rufus. I was a bit nervous about scheduling a drop in visit because I never had a stranger watch Rufus. When she dropped by after her booking he was so excited to see her. The tail was mega-wagging ! That to me says it all!!”
“Lucero did a great job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. I also liked Lucero as a person - she is very nice and very reliable. Definitely will come back to her the next time I will need a sitter for my cat! Thank you so much!”
About: I have dog sat throughout high school and have a dog of my own. I have a Newfoundland so no dog is too big for me. I have experience with puppies and older dogs as well. I am available for pet care from 8-11:30 in the morning and 6-11 and night from Monday through Thursday. I am available from 9am to 10pm Friday through Sunday I will follow any specific instructions that the pets parents give to me. Whatever the client is in need of for their dog I can complete for them. Walks, feeding, play time, etc.
About: I've always grown up surrounded by dogs, whether that was in my own household or around family. On my way to be a veterinarian, I continuously care for my own dogs, my neighbors dogs and spend my time volunteering at an animal shelter nearby, Father Johns, and ensure the health and safety of all ages of dogs. I am super excited to continue dog walking and care for your pets needs! Currently I am full time student at the University of Delaware, and am returning back in August. Until then, I am available all day, every day with restrictions on some days when I am waitressing, but other than that, I am excited to play and care for your pet and their needs! Throughout my life, I've had years of experience with large dogs, senior dogs, puppies, etc. I have also had experience with many different behaviors of dogs and understand it can be hard to meet a fresh face. I will carefully comfort your pet, and introduce myself in a calm manner to ensure the safety of your pet and myself, so your pet can have a fun, relaxing time!
About: I spend a lot of my free time volunteering at a local animal shelter! I have also had 2 German shepherds and 2 cats growing up. I currently work part time, and I don’t work every day. I can easily work around my work schedule to help out with your pups! I will care for your pet in your home. That would be the best for me and your pet! My home is not suitable for pets at the moment.
“Gabriella was great with Niko! He was very happy when we got home and she kept us in the loop about his behavior...she even let us know out kitchen had water in it from all the storms.”
About: I'm Rai (he/him)! I am a proud cat dad to Luca -- he is my whole world. I will treat your pets like my own, send you picture updates, play with them, sing them little songs, and accommodate their needs! I'm the go-to pet sitter for my friends & family and would love to be your go-to person as well :) I'm currently working part-time and freelancing, so my schedule is flexible! I typically have a lot of availability on Tuesdays and Thursdays and in the evenings. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, medications, or playtime. I respect your home and your pet’s routines, including any rules about where they’re allowed to be. I’ve got experience with my own cat, Luca, who used to love jumping on tables—so I understand how to gently reinforce boundaries and make sure your pets are safe and comfortable while you're away.
About: I've grown up with dogs of all sizes—from tiny dachshunds to big shepherds—so I’m confident caring for pups with all kinds of personalities. As an avid hiker, I love staying active and always bring a four-legged friend along for the adventure. Whether it’s a slow stroll or a high-energy outing, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and exercised. 🐶⛰️ I work full time but start early, so I’m free by mid-afternoon—and I’d love to spend that time working with dogs. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and have a natural comfort around them. Whether it’s a quick walk or some extra playtime, I’ll make sure your pup is well cared for and happy! When caring for someone else’s dog, I’m always cautious and respectful—because I know I’m being trusted with a very important part of their life. I never take that lightly. I use a bright, high-visibility leash and always keep a secure handheld grip to ensure your dog’s safety. I stay fully present on every walk or home visit, constantly observing your dog’s behavior to make sure they’re comfortable, not overwhelmed, and enjoying their time. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority.

“Valerie has been around animals since the day she was born. Even as a toddler, she was willing to feed our cats and help to take care of them. When she was a teenager, we brought a Newfoundland dog into our home. She has always been a huge help with feeding, brushing, and taking him for walks. There have been numerous occasions where Valerie has stayed home for weekends while her stepfather and I have gone away. During this time she took care of not just our Newfoundland but also our cat. She’s an extremely responsible young adult. I trust her to care for and love any animal that is with her.”

Rai D.
“I have never been away from my dog, Bubba, for more than 3 hours and when I met Raisa through a friend, it was like all of my worries were lifted off my shoulders. Raisa took care of Bubba for a 3 whole consecutive days until I came home for bedtime. She walked him three times a day, fed them, played with him (sometimes at dog parks), and kept up with his in-home potty training. It was a lot of responsibility for someone’s first time with my dog and she did an amazing job.”

I can’t say enough good things about Alyssa! She was incredible with my 80lb Shepherd and even bonded with my extremely shy cat.
