“Casie was wonderful! We felt comfortable leaving our two active boys with her and she took such great care of them! We have one very anxious dog while the other is more wild and playful, and both seemed to be happy and content while Casie stayed at our home and cared for them. She was a great communicator and send pics and updates so that we were able to relax while we were away. She left the house very clean, was willing to get the mail and paper, and was patient with us when we checked in for updates and while we were explaining the dogs' routines, feeding schedules and medications. Casie even brought in and then took the garbage can back out to the curb so it was ready for pick up on the day we came home which was very kind! We hope Casie will be willing and available to stay in our home and with our dogs again soon! Thank you so much for taking such good care of the boys!”
“Isabelle was wonderful with our two cattle dogs, communicated with us and shared pictures throughout our long weekend away. In addition, she cared for our home as we would, and cleaned up after herself. We had nice calm girls when we got home, to me that’s a sign they were well cared for and loved!”
“Brianna watched my dog and cat while I was away for a few days and she was great. I cannot say enough good things about her. She sent lots of updates and pictures. And my house was perfectly clean when I returned home. I highly recommend her if you need someone to stay at your house to watch your pets.”
About: I've cared for various kinds of pets over my whole life and at one point was able to become an AKC trained dog trainer! I've since changed jobs to a patient sitter at a nearby hospital and miss the new animals being in my life. I'd love to get a chance to meet your pets and help care for them! I work 3 inconsistent days from either 630am-pm or 630pm-am throughout the week but can make changes as needed to work up to 3 days a week for a client outside of that! I feel that all pets have a wide range of personalities and needs but the important thing is to work with them to achieve their physical and emotional needs! I have 2 cats with vastly different attitudes and I make sure to tailor my care for them in specific ways like being a safety person for my cat while she's eating or training my partners cat to ask for attention and treats more politely. When it comes to dogs I have a training in positive reinforcement and dog behaviors and will try to engage with breed specific enrichment on top of whatever schedule the pet parents have for their dog.
“Aidan housesit with our two cats. He was responsive and took great care of them. He sent pictures, kept the house clean, and helped us take out the trash since we came back after trash day. I would recommend him and have him sit with our cats again!”
“A well-deserved 5 star review for Tyler. He takes wonderful care of our dog Cooper & is very respectful of our home. We appreciate all the pictures we got while away. So thrilled to have found Tyler!”
“Sent pictures, followed instructions, my animals and my house have little particulars that she listened to well, too! My house was clean, animals were well taken care of and happy when I got back ❤️ Would recommend Cayla and will use again! Thanks again.”
“Very attentive, kind and professional. Thank you so much. You made what could have been a stressful part of my vacation, very easy. Howard loved you and I will definitely rebook in the future.”
“Riley is so kind to our pup Mac! She sends pictures all day to give me a piece of mind about their day together. She keeps me updated all day long. She is so attentive and kind. Thank you Riley!!! Mac already misses you!”
“This was the first time we left our anxiety filled lab with a pet sitter. She can be a challenge, but Josh handled it with flying colors. Looking forward to more family trips now that we’ve found a great pet sitter.”
About: I have grown up my whole life with a dog just until very recently. When my dog passed away, I started offering my services around my neighborhood and continued to connect with our furry friends by walking them around the neighborhood. I have always had a deep love for animals (especially dogs) and love to spend time with them. I found this app and thought it would be a great way to continue to spend time and take care of them! I am currently off for the summer. I am in nursing school taking some time off until the next semester starts. I can work anytime the semester is out. My home has a built in invisible fence for the dogs, I love petting dogs and playing tug of war or just sitting next to them while I’m reading etc.
“Mike was absolutely wonderful. He watched our pups in our home and I felt safe and stress free. My dogs were in such great care. They loved him... maybe a little too much! I would definitely book with him again.”
“Becca took very good care of our nervous pup and gave her the time and space she needed to get comfortable. She also kept in touch and sent pictures so I could enjoy my time away without worry.”
“Plachette did a wonderful job caring for our dogs! She provided regular updates, sweet pictures and videos, was reliable and made me feel very comfortable that our pups were getting good care while we were away. I would recommend her to any dog owner!”
“Gordon was outstanding! He took the time to get to know our dog very well, which gave us so much peace of mind. He went above and beyond—bringing in all our packages from the porch, putting out the trash on garbage day, and taking care of the little things without being asked. We’re so grateful for his care and attention to detail.”
“Jessica is literally the best :) I never have to worry about anything when I am away - my dog is loved, my home is well cared for, etc. She is a life saver and I couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 5 years through my experience with my two miniature Dachshunds, Milo and Penny. I’m active with them daily walks, playtime and lots of love. As a remote software engineer, I’m home most of the day and can offer a calm, attentive environment. Friends and family often say I treat my pups like royalty and I’ll treat yours the same! I work remotely as a software engineer, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on weekends and during weekdays. Your pet will never feel alone with me around! I have a fully fenced yard and two sweet, small Dachshunds to keep your pup company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and ensure a clean, cozy, and secure home environment. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

Phillip has always been nothing but kind and patient with Molly, meeting her where she is and giving her lots of love along the way.”

Crystal was great, we would happily rebook her for any future stays with our dogs! They seemed to love their time with her, and she was very respectful of our home. Consistent communication and updates, handled the small issues that our boys created with ease, and left our home in better condition than we left it.
