“Rachel was FANTASTIC with our 70+ pound Rottweiler/Husky with separation anxiety. She played and engaged with him when his energy was up, and let him lounge and rest when he needed it. We got frequent photo and text updates (and she takes really great doggy photos), and she even did an art project with him. He was happy and relaxed when we got home. Would definitely use her again for dog sitting in our home and might event try boarding him in her home when the need comes up. Thanks Rachel!”

About: As a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience, being a dog sitter is more than a job—it’s a passion. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, always treating them like part of the family. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just providing comforting company, I’m dedicated to making every pup feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! As someone who works from home with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time and attention to give your dog throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. With me, your dog won’t just be looked after—they’ll be part of a calm, happy home. As a dedicated dog sitter living in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment, I offer a safe and comfortable environment where your dog can feel right at home. With plenty of room to play indoors and several great dog parks just a short walk away, your pup will get the exercise, attention, and love they need. Whether it's playtime, cuddle time, or a relaxing stroll, I’m here to give your dog the care they deserve.
“We are so grateful for the amazing care Alexandra gave our pets over Thanksgiving! She stayed in our home for a full week to look after our Rottie, Mini Schnauzer, and kitty, and she truly went above and beyond. She even checked in to ask if she could give them a little turkey on the holiday ~ which they were very excited about! Alexandra sent us pictures throughout our trip, giving us so much peace of mind, and we returned to three happy, relaxed animals. She also left our home clean and well cared for, which we deeply appreciated after traveling. We were extremely pleased with her service and will definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend! She also left our home clean and well cared for, which we deeply appreciated after a long trip. We were extremely pleased with her service and will definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Natalie was amazing! I felt like my dogs were very well taken care of and didn’t have to worry. She sent pictures and updates every day which was very helpful. I’d definitely book with her again and highly recommend to others.”

“We are happy and satisfied with the three days that Keka has been house-sitting our pawlove Hazel. Sure they had quality time playing around the house and outside during their walk. On top of that she got to provide Hazel with some Training that she needed. We appreciate so much the time she spent with our Hazel. We will surely recommend her to our other paw parent friends and surely it won't be the last for Keka & Hazel.”
“Tatiana was great! She took the time to meet before the day she was going nj to Dogsit. She sent lots of updates and photos and was a joy to communicate with. Thank you Tatiana!”

“I highly recommend CeeCee for your pet and home sitting needs. We hired her to look after our overly affectionate cat and our quirky pit-mix pup while out of town for 6 days. CeeCee was communicative, sent pictures, and took care of needs as requested, including watering plants. She kept the house tidy, even throwing in a load of wash at the end of her stay. We will definitely be repeat customers for future pet sitting needs.”

“Carson was very patient with me as I sorted out my schedule. She came highly recommended from the references she provided. She cared for my elderly dog, Penny, including administering a complicated regimen of medication. I would hire her again!”

“Bryant was excellent with my senior dog. He was incredibly experienced in terms of my dog’s specific needs, including diaper changes and being mindful of her dementia traits. He was also very communicative and offered multiple updates throughout the day.”

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats throughout my life and have always taken pride in giving them the best care possible. Over the years, my love for animals has only grown—especially for cats. As I got older, that bond became even stronger, which eventually led me to having four cats of my own, all of whom I love deeply and care for like family. What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and my understanding of their unique personalities and needs. Whether it's keeping a shy cat comfortable, giving a senior pet extra patience, or just making sure every little detail is handled with care, I treat every pet as if they were my own. As someone who works from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of free time throughout the day and week to focus on pet care. My remote work is structured in a way that gives me the freedom to plan around pet visits and provide consistent, attentive care. Whether it’s morning check-ins, midday playtime, or evening visits, I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs and make sure your pet gets the time, love, and attention they deserve! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can create a calm, secure environment that feels familiar and stress-free. In your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, playtime, or keeping the litter box clean and tidy. I make sure pets feel safe and cared for, and I always keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. At my home, pets have a quiet, cat-friendly space where they can relax without stress or overcrowding. I’m mindful of keeping things clean, secure, and peaceful—especially for more sensitive or shy cats. My goal is always to treat your pet (and your home) with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.
“Charlie is amazing!! He took great care of our dog Kira, ensuring she was well-fed, exercised, and given lots of attention. He was attentive to her needs, especially given her sensitive stomach, and kept us updated with regular check-ins. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend! Let me know if you want any tweaks!”

About: I had two dogs growing up, until about four years ago. Since then, I’ve been dog-sitting for friends, and friends of friends once word of mouth spread. I’m known for surprising owners with teaching their dogs new tricks if I’ve spent a few days with them (unless of course you’d prefer I didn’t). I’d love the opportunity to take care of your dog while you’re away! I recently left my job and am available for most of the day, so I am very flexible and can give your dog all the attention it deserves. My apartment complex has lots of grassy patches and a fenced-in area where dogs can run around. There are also lots of dog parks around me that I would be happy to go to if you’d prefer!

“Jalisa was very professional throughout her time housesitting for our 2 small doggies. She sent picture updates and made sure we were comfortable our babies were safe while we were away, would highly recommend!!”
About: I've taken care of two family dogs who became family members, one of which I rescued from a neglectful owner. I was a hands-on dad to my son, and as a single parent knew well how to feed and change him and care for him when he was sick. As a senior, I've the experience and "seasoning" to know what's important, whether it's an infant or child or a family dog, and how to see to it that the one in my care is well cared for, happy, and loved. Since the condo development where my wife and I live doesn't allow dogs, I take special pleasure in spending time with them at every opportunity. I come from a long line of dog lovers on my dad's side, and proudly carry on that tradition. I'm a retiree who does part-time volunteer work, both hands-on with elementary-school-aged children and legislative and policy advocacy on behalf of folks with intellectual and developmental disabilities. My other major activities are staying in shape and learning a foreign language. These part-time gigs, and the fact that my wife works part-time, leave me enough time to do some pet care. I cannot care for pets in my home, or for that matter have a dog, because the condo development where I live does not permit dogs. I care for dogs in their owner's homes, following their owners' lead, so to speak, and according to their owners' directives. Fortunately, this means that the dogs I care for, who know their way around their own turf, do not need to adjust to new environs. As a guest myself, I am naturally inclined to treat the home where I find myself with extra care and respect, more so than I would my own home.
“Marlene has stayed with my dog Lexi at our home multiple times when we go away. Marlene is very accommodating, she is able to make last minute changes to her schedule to fit our needs and goes above and beyond to make sure our dog is comfortable, safe, and happy. I really appreciate her flexibility. Our place is always nice and tidy when we come back home. Marlene is very responsive when contacted throughout the day, sends daily updates and pictures and it gives us peace of mind Lexi being in good hands.”

About: I have many years of pet sitting, dog walking and dog rescue work. I will love and care for your pet as I would my own- their happiness and comfort is my priority. I am working part time, and in the evenings, right now so I have plenty of time for long day time walks (if applicable) and quality time with your pet. I make sure I get from you feeding and walking times to keep them on schedule while you are away, as well as any other details to make sure they are comfortable and unstressed while you are away.
About: My pet care experience began when I was a child; I volunteered at animal shelters, pet-sat for neighbors and family, and cared for my family’s dog, Gustavo! As an adult, my commitment to animal care has grown. I graduated from University of Maryland in 2024 with a B.S. in Animal Sciences. While earning my degree, I gained hands-on training concerning cats, dogs, rabbits, and multiple species of large animals. During the following year, I worked as a veterinary assistant at an emergency veterinary hospital. This job allowed me to care for pets with a wide variety of needs, from behavioral issues to critical medical conditions. Currently, I am earning my master's through University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine. My extensive animal experience and education have prepared me to provide high quality care for your pet, no matter what needs they may have! I am currently an online graduate student, which means that I am highly flexible. I am usually able to accommodate whatever hours my clients need! My top priority when caring for any pet is understanding their needs on an individual level. My experience has taught me that connecting with each unique pet results in the most effective care possible! Let me know the type of environment that makes both you and your pet most comfortable and I will be sure to provide it.
“Andrew was great with Toby and Harley. He kept me updated on how they were doing. Sent photos and videos showing that all was well. Was excellent with Harley the more reserved of the 2. He has care and concern for the pets in hi his care. Both Harley and Toby enjoyed having Andrew as their sitter. I would recommend Andrew !!!!”

“Peter is such a well-spoken, considerate, and accommodating young man. My dog immediately fell in love with him, and Peter offered the care I would've given if I were home-- and then some! Peter not only offers exemplary pet care, but also conducts himself in an organized and cleanly matter. You can be confident that he will keep your house in pristine condition. I didn't ask him to, but he vacuumed, took out the trash, and cleaned the dogs' water and food bowl. I would recommend Peter to anyone with pet needs because you can tell he cares about the work that he does. His rates are fair, he is open to negotiate, and you can count on him to respond. Peter has set the bar for pet care, and pet owners should never have to expect any less. He sends consistent updates, and spends quality time with your pet. Without a doubt, I will be booking with him in the future!”

Nicole is the most caring, kind, respectful, and sweet dog sitter ever. She sends photos of the dogs and communicates all day! She makes it so much easier to leave our 2 mini dachshund puppies at home while we are at work knowing we have an amazing person taking care of them. Nicole goes above and beyond to provide the best care to our babies and we will absolutely be using her again for dog/ house sitting. She is the very best of the best!

CeeCee stayed with my two large dogs over Thanksgiving and was wonderful! She was very accommodating with a last minute booking. The dogs loved her, and she left everything tidier than when she got there. This was the first time my dogs had a sitter, and I felt better knowing they were in good hands.

Claudia was an amazing dog sitter. She made sure our very anxious dog got enough walks, kept him company all day and night and that he always had fresh food. She was also so communicative and made us feel like we could really enjoy our vacation because she had everything under control! Benson definitely missed her after she left, which is a great sign of how comfortable she made him feel. We will definitely request her services the next time we need a dog sitter. Thank you Claudia!!

We can’t say enough wonderful things about David! Our senior girl is very challenging, with many special needs. David set our minds at ease knowing she was in good hands. Wonderful with communication as well! Would highly recommend! Thank you again David for your compassionate care ❤️🐾

Narjes has been great with our pets over multiple bookings. She’s responsive, responsible, takes frequent cute pet pics, and managed well when our dog started vomiting during our absence. She was kind and caring, doing comprehensive cleanup and cooking him rice to settle his belly. The house is always left in good shape, too!

We are happy and satisfied with the three days that Keka has been house-sitting our pawlove Hazel. Sure they had quality time playing around the house and outside during their walk. On top of that she got to provide Hazel with some Training that she needed. We appreciate so much the time she spent with our Hazel. We will surely recommend her to our other paw parent friends and surely it won't be the last for Keka & Hazel.
Alejandra is the best dog sitter we’ve ever worked with! She sent us lots of photos and updates as requested and followed our medication management routine. Our pup was feeling a bit anxious and Alejandra kept us in the loop as she monitored his mood. By the next day he was snuggling up like he’s known her forever. They had lots of playtime and outside time which was much appreciated! Couldn’t recommend her more!

We are so grateful for Rhinesca and Julio. We were taking a very last minute and long trip, they were great with updates. Our dog is reactive and strong, they did an excellent job when meeting him for the first time and controlling him on walks. We'll definitely reach out again.
