“I know Marika through my son. After having her walk my dog, I referred her to some neighbors and friends who have also had great experiences. I know she's had a lot of experience house sitting with cats and dogs!”


2. Georgia R.
“Georgia was the best fur baby sitter anyone could ask for! She followed specific instructions exactly as asked and my dog let me know she was treated well because she was always happy to see Georgia. We are very happy that she got into the college of her choice but we were also very sad to lose our most trusted sitter.”

“So so thankful for Samantha!! She helped me out in a bind and I couldn’t be more grateful. She’s on time and walks my pup for the full time. My dog took to her instantly and I love the notes and pictures she’s provides when I’m at work. Big help, highly recommended!”


5. Benny B.
About: I’ve always had pets growing up. I’ve learned to care for pets responsibly and give them the love and attention they need everyday. I make sure I’m attentive and fun for all the pets I take care of. I’m in college and can do any job during my breaks and weekends work the best most of the time. Also the summer I am mostly free. I’ll always make sure that your pets are leashed while outside and will make sure your doors are locked in case of possible intruders. I will always keep an eye on your pet so they don’t get up to mischief.

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. I have trained extensively with my own puppy. I have experience with elder care and puppies as young as 6 weeks! I am available any day of the week and any time of the day, for any length time - over nights, walks, feeding, drop ins. I will always have my dog with me. She is a 1 year old, 45 lb., lab/husky mix. She loves to play and will be ecstatic to have the company of another dog! I can provide care in my home or yours. Your pet’s safety and well being is my number one priority.

13. Maggie R.
About: I have 3 years of experience as a pet sitter and have absolutely loved it. Book with me to watch your fur babies, prices are negotiable. For the next two months I have open availability and trying to book my calendar. 🤍😊 I love taking bookings as much as I can. I have had months where I do it everyday. It makes me happy when I stay busy I only do in home stays as of now because I live in an apartment which does not allow animals. Small fully trained animals are an exception


14. Chelsea B.
“I’ve hired Chelsea several times over the last ten years to house sit and care for my pets in my absence. Shes easy to communicate with and very accommodating to all of our special requests from our special cat to last minute requests. And she sends pictures of our babies while we are away which we love and look forward to.”


15. Jess D.

“Jess…Thanks so much for being attentive to Jaspers wants and whims. He's falling for you and looks forward to his time with you. We all really appreciate you bringing your A game for our energetic border collie, Jasper.”


16. Kelly M.
About: My parents bred our labs a couple of times when I was a kid, so puppies and dogs have always been in my life. In college I bought my own puppy and had her for a wonderful almost 10 years. She was my best friend and I talked to her and kissed her all of the time. She made me feel happy when my days were gray. Since then I’ve dog sat for multiple families and borrow my friends’ dogs to go for walks and adventures since I no longer have a pup of my own. I work three 12 hour shifts a week so I would love to spend my free days with dogs. I’ve watched my friends dogs even on work days because I work 7a-7 p so I can be there for breakfast and dinner. Most of the time I’ve stayed in their homes so that the dog feels most comfortable. I have no other pets in my home and your pup will get all the belly rubs and scratching they need. I love to go for walks and be active with the dogs (of course only if they’re capable)


17. Cassie D.
“Hello! Cassie was brought up on a dairy farm where animals were a top priority!!!! She has 4dogs of her own and shows them unconditional love 365 days of the year! Punctual, Respectful, and loving for your dogs and Pets!!!!”


18. Hayley M.

“Hayley was great! She was friendly, professional, and punctual. She was confident without being forward, and our reactive dog warmed right up to her. We'll definitely book with Hayley again!”


19. Alexis B.
About: I currently work full time as a veterinary technician and have years of experience with all types of animals. I also grew up on a farm and currently work on a horse farm as a hobby in my free time. I throughly enjoy pet sitting and spoil them as if they are my own. My favorite part of the job is meeting new people, their pets & all the different personalities i get to enjoy. I want to make your pets as comfortable & happy as possible while you’re away. I stick to their daily routines to have some normality while you’re gone. I have a lot of knowledge with animals and their health. I’ll be able to take care of your pet daily and if there is any emergencies or issues, I’ll know how to safely handle them. I’m also comfortable administrating medications. My schedule is pretty consistent each week. Each work day is typically 8 hours long but some days are shorter than others. Depending on location, lunch time breaks are available! My biggest responsibility is safety; keeping your pet safe while happy is my top priority. This goes for while on walks, adventures or even just bathroom breaks. As well as any sickness that may come up while you’re gone. Being a veterinary technician, i can realize a sickness sooner than others and know the right course of action.

“Patrick is a great employee and has a true passion for animals. Not only is he knowledgeable on recognizing dog behavior, he is very familiarly with health and wellness and also dog training skills. He is extremely dependent and available whenever he is needed. I highly recommend him.”
