Super duper highly recommend! We had our first overnight pet sitting experience with Eko and Sarah and they were fantastic. Super thorough, punctual, and responsive from the meet-and-greet through the end of the stay. I'd call on them again in a heartbeat and recommend them highly -- our pets co-sign this review 🐾🐾

Edith took such good, thoughtful care of our older, deaf cat. He got his medicine, his treats, and his cuddles. We will 💯% contact Edith the next time we need a house and cat sitter. She's the best!

About: Experienced animal caretaker with a lifelong passion for pets and animal well-being. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including senior pets and those with special care needs. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine, whether that means energetic walks, structured feeding schedules, medication support, or plenty of affection and companionship. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment so pet parents can feel confident their animals are in caring and capable hands. I currently work as a truck driver on weekdays returning by 4 pm at the latest . And availability is free all weekends. I make it a priority for the dogs to be fed, walked and well taken care of throughout the day I have a fenced in yard at the end of a dead end street in a quiet neighborhood, giving your dog the space and peace they need to have a great time

11/10 500 stars, Haleigh took great care of our cats and our home during recent house sitting. Appreciated our initial in person visit to go over routine, and then photo/video updates, initial clarifying questions and keeping in touch about snow storm and all the wonderful cat updates while we were away.

Paulina is one of the best dog sitters we have had the pleasure to work with. We received lots of updates and pictures which we love when we are away from our dog. In addition Paulina takes great care of the house and leaves everything just as we left it. We will definitely request her to sit our pup again and would recommend to anyone to work with Paulina.

Logan pet sat for our cat Bella for a week while we away. Bella is a senior with special needs. Logan came by to meet with Bella a few times before we went away. Logan then stayed at our home caring for Bella while attending college classes. We called every few days so Bella could hear our voice. Having Logan with Bella allowed us to be away knowing she was being well cared for and not alone for long periods of time. We will be in touch with Logan again to sit for Bella.

About: When it comes to pet care, what sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication and compassion, coupled with professional expertise in house training, senior care, medication administration, and regular photo updates, ensuring complete peace of mind for pet owners. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily and weekly routine as I prioritize early mornings, nights, and weekends for providing exceptional care. I am flexible with the amount of time dedicated to each pet, ensuring it aligns with the preferences of their owners. By closely following the parents’ established schedule for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication, I strive to maintain consistency and cater to their pets’ needs. As I work full time, pet sitting allows me to indulge my passion while accommodating my professional commitments. Currently, I am unable to provide pet care services in my own home; however, I offer dedicated pet care in clients’ homes. When entering and exiting a clients’ home, I prioritize security by ensuring all doors are securely locked. Additionally, I take the time to check up on the pet periodically to ensure their safety and well-being. If there are any specific accommodations required for your pet, I am more then willing to discuss and make necessary arrangements.

She also helped feed our daughter's tortoise and the fish that I forget that we have! The house was in amazing shape and the dogs seemed wicked happy! Dana is an amazing sitter, we hope to have her over again in the future! If you are deciding on a sitter, go with Dana! (

About: Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! You clicked on THE absolute best pet-sitter you will ever find. My name is Amy, and I LOVE ANIMALS. I've had pets since childhood; dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, lizards, bunnies, fish, ferrets, and turtles. Most of my pets are rescued. I'm a great dog walker- I will take your dog for a lengthy walk, (or a slow stroll for my older clients) and I will provide him/her with attention, love, and affection. According to their needs, I can sit with your pet to offer comfort and companionship, or romp around on the floor or in the yard for exercise and stimulation. My visits can be tailored to your requests. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and committed. Your pet's health and safety come first. I will take pictures during my visits (or videos, if you'd like) so you know your pet is being cared for. If you have a cat, I will bring toys for stimulating activity, or simply sit with him/her and offer a comforting presence. I also care for gerbils, hamsters, bunnies, birds, and turtles. If you have fish, I will feed them, and give them attention. (Yes, I connect with fish.) I understand animals. I relate to them. I'm intuitive to their needs. And of course, I have great references. There is no better pet-sitter on the planet than me. I look forward to meeting you and your precious family member! I'm currently available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I can be flexible in the morning, afternoon, or early evening hours. If you need more than one visit per day, that can be arranged as well. I will show up with great energy, a calming presence, and toys to play with (according to your pet's needs.) I'm not like other pet sitters- I really spend TIME with your pets. I'm intuitive and understand their needs. For younger pets, I offer lots of play and exercise- stimulation is important! I'm physically fit and would be happy to walk your dog if requested. After the walk, I will sit with him/her and offer my affection and attention. I will refresh their water bowl, feed them, (if requested) offer a treat, (if requested) brush them, play with them, or simply sit with them and be a calming presence in their day. It all depends on your pet's needs. I cater to their behavior and energy. If you have other pets in your home (gerbils, fish, turtles, bunnies, birds, etc) I would consider caring for them during your vacations. All to be discussed and negotiated, of course. As you can see from my profile, I'm very accommodating and flexible, and I offer a wide range of services. For overnight visits, my rate reflects a time frame from 8pm-7am. If you need me to do day visits as well, please explain in the messaging section when you contact me.

She even brought her own super long leash to make long walks more fun for our pup. Highly recommend her. Thank you so much, Edith!

She was very trustworthy and did a wonderful job with my poodle pup. My boy was in good hands! She was responsive and I loved that she sent me pictures and very good ones at that! Will definitely be hiring again!! Thank you so much for your help Holly!

This was our first time picking Katherine to watch our two dogs and one cat while we were away and she did so great with them!! She even gave our dog Chai a bath! We didn't have to over worry with her at our house and she even did some other cleaning before we got home. She also worked around a challenging behavior with our dog Mocha. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter and will reach out to her again when we are planning to be away in the future. Thank you! M&N

Cianna was spectacular, stepping in with very short notice for an extended stay (2 weeks) after some health concerns with one of our dogs made me hesitant to leave him in the kennel for that stretch. She was awesome with the dogs, on top of all their needs and concerns, and was very communicative throughout. The dogs may have been a bit sad to see us come home at the end of the trip as they loved their time with her.
