Derek was fantastic. We booked a housesitting with him on very short notice (11 hours). He was great with our 3 dogs and 4 cats and kept the house clean. Thank you SO much.

This was my first time leaving my two dogs with someone other than family. Kailyn did an amazing job with my two dogs who have a lot of behavioral issues that require special considerations (feeding and walking separately, medications, etc). She sent me pics and videos of the dogs too. Highly recommend!

About: Had dogs in my life since I could remember! Love playing and caring for dogs of all ages and sizes! Have been dog walking/sitting for the past 5 years I am currently in college so time is limited but afternoons are mostly free. I am willing to be super flexible and can normally make time for anything! I can walk up to 3 dogs at time. I am able to maintain a safe and clean environment for dogs while house sitting/ dog sitting.

About: I've had pets since I was 10. I have taken care of both cats and dogs. Friendly, conscientious, and thorough. Can't wait to walk new dogs/friends. I'm currently off of work for the summer as I teach full time during the school year. I am working on taking time for myself, exercising, and walking dogs. I take care of my pets by either crating them or leaving them in a bedroom when I am out and about. I have a crate for them to use.

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you're away, I strive to provide attentive, loving care tailored to their individual needs. I work from home so I can prioritize your pets needs around the clock. My schedule can work seamlessly with puppies or small dogs that need frequent bathroom breaks. At home, I care for my own dog like family. I have a Frenchie who I absolutely adore, and her daily routine includes regular walks, playtime, and visits to the park so she can stay active and social. She’s very friendly, gentle, and loves being around other dogs, so she’s a great example of the calm, positive environment I aim to provide for any pets in my care

About: I absolutely love animals! I grew up in a home full of dogs and cats, and helping care for them was such a big part of my life growing up. I now have a cat of my own, my fur baby, Fish 🐱 I recently graduated from PA school and won’t be starting my job until August, which means I have lots of availability this summer! Spending my days with animals honestly sounds like the perfect way to spend the season. I’d love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your pets! (: I don’t start work until August, so I have a pretty open schedule and lots of availability! I do have one week-long vacation planned this summer, but aside from that, my schedule is very flexible. I’d prefer to handle most pet care during the week, but I’m available on weekends as well! 😊 It’s a single-story home, so I’m always nearby and able to keep a close eye on any pets in the house. We also have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and play!

Brittany was a hit with our Sheltie from the very first meet & greet! She kept me updated on how they were doing. Which is a blessing especially when you are out of town attending a funeral. You definitely do not want to worry about your fur babies!

I don’t have enough good words to say about Jamie! Our animals are our world and I feel like we finally found a sitter who treats them just as amazing as we do. It is such a relief to find someone who takes such good care of your animals while you are gone so you don’t spend the whole time feeling guilty for leaving. At one point, we even said that our dog probably likes her more since she took him on so many walks even in the cold! Jamie was so communicative about how the animals were doing and sent the best photos! She even went the extra mile when I realized I lost something and she found it. She left our home just as clean as when we left so everything was taken care of when we returned so we could just focus on seeing our boys. I can’t recommended her enough and I’m just so glad we found her to have someone we (and our animals!) trust. Just don’t book her so much that we can’t use her 😄

About: I have been helping care for my beagle, Chance, for 9 years. I have taken care of dogs while babysitting. I know how to prepare food, control a tugger of a dog on walks, and give pets the love they deserve. My own beagle is somewhat disabled with full use in only 3 legs. My experience is in dogs, but I also love kitties. I am available to for work Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends all day. Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday I have an internship until 3pm. Thursdays are available from 4pm-midnight. Monday and Tuesday are available from 4pm-6pm. All care will be done within clients house, with the exceptions of walks or dog parks.

Maggie and Willow are wonderful. Maggie stayed at my house for almost two weeks on a last minute booking. She sent updates daily and gave me peace of mind while I was gone. Would definitely book with her again!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life so I’ve had the opportunity to love and care for guinea pigs, hamsters, dogs and cats. I have personally trained my dogs to ensure their behaviors are socially appropriate so if pet training is an additional service you’re looking for, I’m more than happy to assist with that. I am also experienced with administering oral and topical medications, trimming nails, expressing anal glands, and cleaning ears. I am open to overnight stays, training puppies, and basic care (feeding, walks, baths, grooming, etc). My schedule is very flexible so as long as you communicate when you need my services, there shouldn’t be a problem with me being available. I love animals and most importantly I love being able to help people in my community so I’m more than happy to coordinate with your schedule! My top priority is to make sure you, as their owner, feel comfortable with my abilities to care for your fur babies and that they feel safe and loved when being cared for by me. If there’s something you prefer I abstain from (letting your pet play at a dog park, etc.) or perhaps something specific you would like me to do while caring for your pet I’m more than happy to oblige. I want you to be care free knowing that your fur baby is in good hands. You have my commitment to think of their individual needs and always love/care for your pet as if they were my own. My schedule is extremely flexible so feel free to provide me with your schedule and I’m sure we can figure something out for your fur babies. I have a screened in pool that will always be supervised if your pet is staying in my home. In regard to caring for your animal in your household, I promise to follow any set routines your pet has whether that’s being put in their crate if I’m not there, being fed a certain amount of food, etc.

About: I've had my own dogs for my whole entire life. I know that dogs need their daily exercise, and attention to make sure they are satisfied. I have watched my families dogs for many years whenever they go on trips. I understand dogs needs and how much attention a dog may take. I currently have a free schedule. I am working on getting a part time summer job while I am home from college. As of right now I do not have one and I am availaible anytime. I can easily travel to homes to help take care of dogs or walk them. I understand how important it is for dogs to be let out fed and exercised. I will ensure dogs are safely let out to use the restroom and they are on a leash if they need to be walked to ensure the safety of the dog and others.

This was the first time I’ve used a dog sitter. Josh was wonderful with Coby he sent pictures during the week, kept me updated on what was happening. He watered my plants and picked up Mail. I would highly recommend him and will definitely ask for him again. Overall I felt like Coby was in great hands and gave me great peace of mind! I could really enjoy my time away
