Would definitely recommend Christina, and will definitely reach out again the next time we need a sitter!”

She took excellent care of our sweet dog, took him on at least two walks per day, played with him and provided lots of photos and updates every evening.

“Barbara was an amazing dog sitter for our dog, Georgie! She stayed overnight with him, and we immediately felt comfortable with her. Georgie tends to get anxious with new people, but he was surprisingly at ease with her right away. Barbara was on time, took the time to visit beforehand to learn about Georgie’s needs (he’s a senior dog!), and was just fabulous overall. She kept us updated with pictures, and when we returned home, Georgie was relaxed and happy - something that rarely happens when we’re away. We truly appreciate Barbara’s care and attention, and we can’t thank her enough for looking after Georgie so well! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you Barbara!!”

“Christina took great care of our two cats over the Thanksgiving holiday! She responded promptly to our initial request & sent regular updates & pics. When we got back, we found Milo & Rufus looking happy & calm, and our place was clean & tidy. Thanks so much, Christina!”


About: A lifelong animal lover, I have cared for pets my whole life. With two beloved companions of my own, I bring passion and expertise to every furry friend! Pet care fits into my routine after 9 PM on weekdays and with more flexibility Friday through Sunday, ensuring dedicated time for every furry friend’s needs. I provide weekend overnight care, including feeding, walking, and companionship. I also offer weekday and weekend walks, ensuring pets receive the attention they need and deserve

“Samantha was great with our 2 greyhounds and whippet! She came over for a meet & greet beforehand and her calm demeanor immediately put them at ease. She was responsive, attentive to detail, and made sure all their needs were met. My house was spotless when I returned. Will definitely book again!”


“Nija was such an attentive and flexible sitter. Our dog got long walks, scratches and more and our cat was so happy to see her every day. There is nothing better than getting pet mail daily from her.”


“Simona was incredible with our dog Beau! We had to look for a sitter very last minute and she agreed to a week long stay with very little notice. She was professional, sent us daily updates, and took great care of him. Beau is a senior dog who has special medical needs and she was fantastic with that as well. We would recommend Simona to anyone looking for a sitter and hope to use her again in the future!”


About: I will understand your dog's needs and take the time to make sure they are comfortable. I have experience with reactive, aggressive, and shy dogs with varieties of needs. I have 3 border collies, my daily routine is dogs. Training, playing, and adventuring is what we do. Every day has basics that need to be met, but also beyond that. My dogs get their needed play and attention in my small fenced yard daily as well as a different daily activity, from swimming to homemade dog gym time, there's always something different and fun.

About: I’ve grown up helping care for my family’s three chihuahuas, from daily walks to feeding, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I understand the importance of keeping pets happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’m attentive, reliable, and excited to give your furry friends the care and companionship they deserve! I’m currently a part-time online college student and enrolled in a full-time, in-person IT training program Monday–Friday. I’m available for pet care on weekends, and I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, and playtime around your pet’s routine. I’m reliable and committed to giving your pets consistent attention and care. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet I care for. Whether at your home or mine, I make sure pets have fresh water, regular meals, and plenty of attention. I follow your instructions closely and prioritize their comfort, happiness, and safety at all times.

About: Ive had pets since I was a child and I know for a fact I will give your pet more affection than anyone you know. I will lay down on the floor just to love on them. I believe this is what sets me apart from other sitters. I will take them everywhere with me and treat him/her like my child. Im working part time and my schedule is very very flexible so I am home the majority of the day every single day so your pet would never feel neglected or lonely. I have a huge lot behind my house for your little one to run wild and a park across the street. I also have a senior gentle giant with me to keep your baby company. My dog is very laid back and gets along with any dog or I can separate her from your fur baby if need be. She sleeps almost all day long anyway at her age.

“Tiana was great with our dog, Popcorn! She’s very responsive and checked in with us multiple times before and during her stay. Popcorn took to her right away and she took such good care of him. He’s 2 years old and can have a lot of energy at times and she made sure he had plenty of time to play and lots of cuddles and love. We will definitely be using Tiana again!”

Lauren L.
“My daughter is wonderful with cats and dogs. She has grown up with our family dogs and is very loving and attentive with them. She makes sure they have plenty of playtime and lots of belly rubs, ear scratches and cuddles.”


Christian F.
“Christian has been a friend of mine for many years, and if I’ve learned anything about him in all this time, it’s that he lives for animals. I’ve seen him time and time again go out of his way to provide his dogs with the best food, veterinarian care, and living conditions possible. He is obsessive over making sure any pets under his supervision are loved and cared for at all times. It’s fun to see a fully grown bearded man turn into a little kid at the sight of just about any animal he sees, including the strays in his neighborhood who haven’t gone a day without eating due to the bowls of food and water he constantly fills behind his house. If any of you are looking for someone who will treat and love your furry family members with as much gusto as you do, Christian is your guy. I know he’s my preferred sitter for life. Thanks Chris!”
