“She did so good with our babies. She was punctual and kept in touch even though we were far away on vacation. She made sure to clean after she left and was super sweet! I will definitely be booking again!! We had no issues at all! I recommend booking!”


“Stephanie did a wonderful job of caring for our pup while we were away. She took great care in following his routine and keeping in touch, even sending funny narrated videos of his play. We are extremely grateful for Stephanie’s professionalism and ease with animals and would recommend her most highly.”


“Karina was an excellent sitter for my dog and cat over a weekend away. She took great care of my pets and sent plenty of updates and pictures, took my dog on nice long walks, was patient with my shy kitty, and left my place in pristine condition.”


“Sarah is a wonderful housesitter. Takes great care of my Aussie and home. Excellent communications, great attitude and punctual. Highly recommend!!”


“This was our first experience with Rover and Eric really exceeded our expectations. He was reliable and communicative and diligently took care of our cat over the July 4th weekend. Highly recommend his services!”


“Mark was amazing with our dog, going above and beyond with him when we were out of town. We have a high energy dog and mark took him on several long walks. He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!”


“10/10 would recommend! It can be a hit or miss finding a reliable sitter. I was sad when my old pet sitter moved away but then I found Carol! First and foremost Carol obviously cares about the well-being and comfort of your pets. She checks off all my boxes of what I look for in a sitter and it also helps that she sends cute updates and pics throughout the day. When I got home my place was as I left it and most importantly my dog and two cats were calm, as if I never left. I would definitely recommend Carol and I look forward to (hopefully) using her in the future!”


“Devon did such an amazing job with my senior pup. Thank you so much for everything”


“Maria was great and sent lots of pictures to update me on my pup while I was gone. My pup seemed happy and well taken care of. Everything was super clean when I returned home which is always a nice bonus.”


“Diego did a great job taking care of my dog while I was out of town. He was communicative, sent pics and updates, and left the apartment in great condition when he left. I will definitely use him again and I highly recommend him for others!”


“Jenna is great! I had her for the first time for our dog and cat and she stayed for in house sitting. She sent many photos and even kept track of meal times and walks (without us asking). I would absolutely book again!”


“This was Emily’s second time dogsitting for us and she once again took wonderful care of our 45lbs mutt and our house! Her communication is excellent and our pup clearly adores her. We look forward to booking her again!”


“She was fantastic!”


About: I grew up with cats, but fell in love with dogs as I got older! I'm a recently-furloughed fed contractor with lots of unforeseen time on my hands, and would love to spend it walking or checking in on your pet! I am very familiar with the Capitol Hill neighborhood, especially Lincoln Park. If you have any particular concerns or requests about pet care, I am happy to hear them and help ensure your pet has a great experience. I have lots of free time on my hands, so pet care fits extremely well into my current lifestyle at the moment! I prefer mornings and afternoons, but can also be available in the evenings if needed. I don't currently have any pets at the moment (I live in a pet-free apartment), but I recently lived with an outdoor-only dog and two cats abroad. I realize that having outside-inside pets is a bit unique for the U.S., and understand that more rules apply here in the states when it comes to walking your dog. Before living abroad, I grew up with two indoor cats in Minnesota!

“Haley was amazing with Delilah and Cato. Delilah is reactive and she managed her perfectly. She’s incredibly communicative and our pets clearly loved her. She also left our house better than when she arrived. Highly recommended!”


“We’ve used Nikki and Keiran multiple times now and they’re great! They treat our pup so well and go the extra mile to make sure she’s taken care of. We highly recommend them!”


“Corinne was awesome! She is extremely conscientious, communicates exactly the right amount, and treated our dog like he was her own. Knowing he was being so well taken care of put our minds at ease while we were away. He had a wonderful time with her and can't wait to see Corinne again!”


“Dee was great! Very communicative and sent lots of pictures while I was gone. She was great at recognizing and giving my dog the time she needed to get used to a new person and brought the nice calm energy that she needs.”


“Melanie was amazing with our shy pup! He wasn't feeling too great the first time she watched him, but she was flexible and communicative. I really appreciated her taking such good care of him.”


“Emily is the best! She is great with my dog who has separation anxiety and really calms her down. We feel very comfortable leaving Olive in her care. And our cats love her too!”

“If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like her own and give them the specialized care they need, I highly recommend Hayley! One of Hayley’s greatest strengths is her reliability—she always follows through on commitments and takes the time to check in with me, making me feel at ease when I’m out of town. She’s also highly flexible, making scheduling super easy. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or just making sure my pet feels comfortable and loved, she goes above and beyond to provide excellent care. I've known Hayley for over a decade and she is one of the most trustworthy, kind and fun people I know. Look no further for a wonderful pet caregiver!”
