We are very happy with the care that Omar has provided for our cat, Ashe. Ashe was given the attention, care and affection needed to ensure that he was not missing us while we were away. We highly recommend Omar as a house sitter.

We couldn’t say enough great things about Matt! He was beyond awesome. Not only did he take great care of our pups, communicate every step of the way but he also helped do some odds and ends around the house. We would highly recommend using Matt for your pup needs!

About: I am a college student who majors in Biomedical Sciences and plans to attend veterinary school after graduation. I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs, since I was young, and have helped care for my own dog since childhood. My passion for animal care has been my motivation to pursue a future in veterinary medicine. Along with caring for my own dogs, I have had experience with dog sitting and dog walking. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities while making sure they are happy, safe, active, and well cared for. I am currently a college student home for summer break, and I am looking for part-time work. I am available almost every day until August 1st. I will be home again for Thanksgiving break, winter break, and spring break. When caring for pets in my client's home, I would follow the pet's normal routine and follow any additional instructions my client has left me while playing and caring for their pet.

Teri was incredible with our big, anxious bernadoodle puppy (and with an equally anxious dog mom)! She spent a good amount of time with Walter and us prior to the trip, with a few walks to get to know him. On our trip, she was very proactive and clear in her updates (with photos and videos!) and Walter warmed up to her pretty quick. We also benefited from her dog training and wellbeing skills to improve Walter’s happiness and behavior. On returning, the house was immaculate and Walter was content. We definitely recommend Teri for dog/house sitting and walks.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I can remember. My first dog was a German Shepherd when I was 4, 12, and 16. My friends and family have exposed me to a wide variety of dogs. I am always the first in the room to attract a dog and the last to leave its side. Small or big, I know how to leave your dog with a new human friend, happy and tired. I'm more than comfortable checking in and house-sitting with all types of dogs whether it’s a couch companion or a playful friend. I know with my German Shepherd it's always go, go, go so when he sits and naps it's a break for me too. I'm comfortable walking dogs that are leash-trained and dog friendly of all sizes. I just graduated college so I’m spending some time at home for the summer meaning I’m pretty much free whenever outside of committed plans. I’m pretty flexible so feel free to message me to figure a time and day out! I know it's difficult to open your home to a stranger, so I'm more than willing to meet or talk on the phone before you trust me with your pet! To ensure the safety of your dog, I need to know of any behavioral or medical issues. Depending on the issue, we can decide if I'm the best match for you and your dog. I know the basic do and donts, red flags, and really good at communication. I’m always patient, loving, and responsible! I understand there may be specific needs, wants, and asks so I’m all ears.

We had a great experience with Josselyn! She watched our year and a half old husky while we were at work and kept us updated throughout the day. She was very attentive to his potty training needs, took him out often, and took him on a long walk to help get his energy out. She even brought him a special treat after checking with us about allergies, which we really appreciated. He was clearly well cared for, and she will definitely be our go-to sitter!

Fahad was amazing with our two dogs for the week! One of them had some stomach issues while we were gone and he took great care of him through it, kept us informed, and didn't complain at all about having to deal with a throwing up dog. He was super communicative the whole time. Both pups were very calm and happy when we got back and the house was in great shape!

Our dog got plenty of long walks, lots of cuddles and love. Even the unfriendly cat liked Toby. Tobias sent daily updates with photos enabling me to feel confident and secure, fully able to enjoy our vacation. We came home to an immaculately clean house and happy animals. I highly recommend Tobias and will definitely rely on him for any future pet care needs.

Kori was super enthusiastic, attentive, and communicative. We were so grateful knowing she was looking after our kid. This was our first time on Martha's Vineyard (which you can't immediately leave to come home) and she made us feel completely comfortable; she had everything under control. She made it a point to go above and beyond. We would highly recommend Kori for anyone looking for peace of mind with their pets.
