Megan was so sweet and chill! We needed someone to keep our Alaskan Malamute company while we went into the city for a concert in the evening. She was very responsive during setting up the house stay and communicated throughout the duration we were gone with helpful updates and photos of our anxious dog. He was immediately fond of her and even seemed to miss her after she left! I would highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a house sitter.

Carrie was an amazing sitter. Attentive, communicative, and punctual. She went above and beyond to make sure my Bonnie was cared for the way I would take care of her. I will be rebooking with her for sure!

Paulina is the best pet sitter we have ever had!!! She truly loved and cared for our fur babies just like we do and she sent us the cutest updates everyday. Even leaving my pets with family is stressful and my mind is never at ease, but with Paulina we were able to actually relax and enjoy our vacation because we knew how happy our pets were with her. We will definitely rebook with her in the future!

Stephanie was amazing with Birdie. She was incredibly responsive throughout the stay and easily took care of any difficulties that arose. We could tell that Birdie loved Stephanie by the end of the stay, which made us very happy. She was also very thoughtful and considerate staying in our apartment!

Oliver took excellent care of our older and nervous dog, Mona. He was very communicative throughout. Oliver also relieved much stress when he stepped up to stay two extra nights after our flights were cancelled and we could not get home. We are so appreciative of his kind care and thoughtfulness.

Dominique is the best dog sitter you will ever find! She is very communicative. She has taken exceptional care of our 3 dogs while we were away over a long weekend. I did not have a worry on my mind. She updates you by sending pictures and keeping you in the loop of the dog’s day. Will definitely use her again. Dominique is amazing. Highly recommend!

Elizabeth is great! We have two needy pets, including an old, anxious dog with mobility issues and other special needs. Elizabeth was perfect with administering medications and and keeping up with regular physical therapy exercises. We came home to a clean house and two well cared for (though possibly disappointed Elizabeth was gone) pets. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth if you need someone to watch pets in your home.

Ariadna took amazing care of my very anxious rescue dog. She was so patient with Penny, and it seems like Penny really trusted her by the end of the weekend! She sent tons of pictures and updates every day, (which were so appreciated!) and was vey communicative. She also left my home very clean. Highly recommend!

Ximena did such a great job with my pets! My cat can be very hard to make friends with and they warmed up to each other surprisingly quickly. Ximena also sent consistent updates with photos and left my home super clean (massive thanks for that). Highly recommend Ximena for both cats and dogs!

Duncan was a professional and responsible caretaker. He went above and beyond our expectations when he took care of our 2 dogs Honey and Pickles for two weeks. Before even starting the job, he met us in a freezing blizzard for a simple meet + greet, which I think immediately showed his dedication to the job. He also cleaned up around our house when the dogs were making a mess, not something that we asked him to do — but rather something that he proactively did. One of our dogs, Honey, has anxiety. Duncan even stood overnight on New Years Eve just to help her stay calm during the fireworks, which I believe is something your average dog caretaker wouldn’t do! He was also very responsive with text and sent us updates every day. I felt much peace of mind because I knew Duncan was taking our two dogs on 2 walks every day, feeding them on time, and spending some time with them too. I would definitely recommend Duncan to a friend and would rebook him myself!

About: I grew up with dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I understand their routines, energy levels, and the attention they need to feel comfortable and happy. I’m patient with puppies who are still learning and gentle with senior dogs who may need a slower pace or extra care. I treat every pet like family and always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is in good hands. I work hybrid during the week and I have open availability on weekends. This allows me to give pets consistent attention for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship while keeping them comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they’re in my home or their own. I follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks so things feel familiar to them. I give them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also respecting any rules or training the owner has in place. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pet is happy and in good hands.

Val did an awesome job watching our two large dogs at our house for an extended period! It was clear that she really cared and spent lots of timing playing with them and making them feel loved. She kept us updated with details of how the dogs were doing and shared lots of pictures so that we never worried. Val also went above and beyond in keeping the house in tidy shape and making sure that everything was in order when we returned from our trip. She will absolutely be our first call for all of our future pup sitting needs!

Taylor has sat for our pup many times but this was her first overnight stay and it went GREAT. She stayed with Mr. Scruff for four nights and we were so thankful to not have to worry about him at all while we were gone. We got plenty of updates, she followed all of our instructions (especially important with his separation anxiety and reactivity), and was also a great houseguest. Our buddy was belly up, playing, and eating while we were away, which means he felt safe and happy — all we can ask for!

She checked in every morning and evening and sent pictures, and we felt like the two of them were in great hands! We would definitely book Ava's services again in the future!

Mounika was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at our home with our 8-month-old puppy and provided thoughtful, regular updates throughout her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our puppy can be quite a handful at times, but he absolutely adores her. She was patient, attentive, and clearly cared for him as if he were her own. On top of that, she helped us navigate an unexpected HVAC issue while we were gone and left our home spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would recommend her without hesitation. 100/10!

Emily is amazing. My dog can be extremely stubborn when she doesn’t want to go out but Emily was undeterred. Winnie also hates thunderstorms and there were several while Emily was watching her and Emily was so attentive to keeping Winnie calm during the storms. Emily also sent great photos and regular updates. I felt super at ease knowing Winnie was in Emily’s hands!

We had a wonderful experience with Layla! She took such great care of Ellie, sent lots of updates and photos, was quick to communicate, and even brought in packages that arrived while we were away. I was fully able to enjoy my time away knowing Ellie was in such good hands. She also helped with a last-minute walk request the week before our trip. She treated both our home and our pup with so much care and respect. She is reliable and trustworthy, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

It's always nerve-wracking leaving my dog with someone new for the first time, especially when I'm not easily accessible. Good thing I took a chance on Anna - she handled everything perfectly! I really felt like she treated Turtle like her own pet for the week. Her and her partner provided all the care and loving that I'd hoped for. I will definitely use her again!
