“Vivian was so awesome! She babysat Oliver for 4 days last minute and was so communicative and helpful. She was very flexible and took care of our baby. On top of that our house was clean and tidy when we got home. Could not be more grateful for Vivian's help!”
“Maura was a great sitter for our dog at our house and sent plenty of photos and updates during her stay. Our dog was happy and healthy when we got home. We would definitely have Maura sit for us again!”
“Mia did a great job watching our dog while we left the country. Our house was clean and our dog was happy and healthy when we got back. We would definitely have Mia watch Casey again :)”
“Victoria was excellent to our cats. She gave them all the time and attention they needed while we were gone and despite them not generally being warm to strangers she got one of cats to pet her which is huge for a stranger to come in and do.”
“Jen was great! She was as on top of things as you could ever expect- checking in right before the start of our trip, sending updates and photos of our dog, Bailey, asking questions as needed, and following up on the last day to make sure everything was good. She clearly loves dogs, and is very conscientious. Highly recommended indeed!”
“Alyssa is absolutely amazing! Or dogs simply adore her and love when she comes to stay with them. We have used boarding facilities in the past but both pur dogs (and us) do so much better in their own, familiar environment. Alyssa is so professional - she ALWAYS sends tons of texts and pictures. It's such a relief to know our fur babies are in great hands. We HIGHLY recommend and will use her every time we have to go away.”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a little kid so it’s nothing new to me. I also make sure to fully engage and play with them to build bonds. I’m fully available to take care of pets full time. I love taking care of dogs and cats as I’ve had many as a kid. I will make sure to take care of the pets in every way I am asked and tasked to by the owner. I will make sure the pets are taken care of under my care.
About: I will make sure your pet has enough food and water, bathroom breaks, walks, and attention that they deserve while they’re away from you. They are family so I treat them like family. I really love animals and unfortunately my brother is allergic so I don’t get to have any of my own but petting sitting and walking will be a way I can still get that enjoyment without putting family at risk:) I currently work remotely so I am flexible to be able to watch anyday of the week. That being said I will still be able to walk and give them frequent bathroom breaks as well as giving them play time throughout the day. Their well being is my number one priority I would prefer to come to your home as it would be easier for you and the pet to be in the comfort of their own home.
“Danielle is an amazing sitter! Zeke had such a fun stay with her with lots of activity and fun playing with his new fur friends. I highly recommend Danielle and will be using her again and recommending her to all of my family and friends. You will NOT be disappointed and your pets will thank you! I have some great photos and videos of his fun weekend!”
About: I’ve taken care of my sons dog for years while he was at work or on vacation. I’ve also watched friends dogs while they were away for the weekends. I’m currently own my own business and my hours are very flexible. I will have a lot of free time to spend with your dog! I have a nice neighborhood to walk your dog. No children or other dogs in the home. I own my own business for the past 14 years and have had all the same clients along the way. I treat them like my own. This will go for your pet as well!!!!
“Tricia was wonderful. She was very responsive and took great care of our two dogs and house. Most importantly, the dogs loved her! So glad we’ve found a reliable pet sitter with Tricia.”
“Cassidy was amazing with our pup. She took her time out to come the day before and meet with us and to get to know Zoey. She was great with communication and sent us pictures to let us know that Zoe was OK. It was our first time leaving her, and it was hard, but Cassidy made the whole process so smooth. I knew that I was leaving her in safe hands.”
“This is our first time booking Ulana, and I'm sure not our last. We had her in to house sit with our dog and cat over a long weekend while we were away.She took excellent care of our pets and our house, going above and beyond our agreement. Our dog Coco took to her right away, as did our cat, Gizmo. Ulana provided regular updates and pictures via text while we were away, and was very diligent around maintaining the routines of our somewhat-eccentric but lovable pets. The house, also, was in great shape when we returned. We'll definitely work with her again.”
“James was an incredible sitter! Responded quickly when arranging his stay with our dog and helped us out in a time of need. James is extremely kind and our dog is obsessed with him. Would love to have him back!”

Sharon B.
“If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, my mom is the one. She has a natural way with animals—gentle, patient, and incredibly attentive. She takes the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs. She doesn’t just "watch" them—she connects with them. Walks are full of love, playtime is joyful, and routines are followed with care and consistency. She sends thoughtful updates and photos that show just how happy and comfortable the pets are while you're away. My mom is the kind of person who will sit on the floor to comfort a nervous pup. Her calm energy and kind heart make her not only a responsible sitter, but a true companion for your furry loved ones. You won't find anyone more trustworthy, loving, and reliable. She’s a natural!”

We decided to leave our 10 year old Dobie at home this time during our vacation. We missed him sooo much as well as our cat but knew they were both in excellent care and company with Katia. Katia kept us informed daily with their activities and sent pictures as well 🐈🐾. When we decide on another trip we would gladly book Katia .
Taylor took great care of our dog Harper. She stayed in touch throughout the weekend and sent plenty of photos. I would also say that Harper is sitting by the door waiting for her to return, even though we are back! And that’s how you know your pet was taken care of! This was our second time using Taylor and we look forward to seeing her again!
Sarah provided care for our two dogs, Ollie and Beau while we were away for the weekend. We met with her ahead of the planned weekend, and our dogs took to her right away. They know a “dog person” when they see one. She was attentive not only to our fur-babies, but also to their anxious parents — sending pictures of the two of them happily playing with her in our backyard. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter without reservation — she was great!
