Top rated Tom Town house sitters

“Lillie was great with the dogs! She was reliable and communicative for our overnight booking. She was flexible when my plans changed and even tidied up the house! I left her detailed instructions which she followed seamlessly and she sent plenty of happy and cuddly dog pictures. She has quickly become my go-to sitter that I trust.”


“Elizabeth was great. We came home to a happy dog, healthy chickens, and a clean house. She kept up with harvesting from the garden as requested. We'll happily use her again.”


“I cannot say enough good things about Gabriel. We met with our dogs, to see how they would be together and he and I talked about the weekend I needed puppy-sitting. Instead of either staying at his apt or mine, because she is a very recent rescue, I asked if he could keep her at his place during the day but then have all 3 of them come and sleep at my apt at night. I did this so that she would know that even if she gets dropped off somewhere else, she is ALWAYS coming back to her home. This worked out very well and he is just the most caring person when it comes to our dogs. I don't travel very often, but I would like to confirm that he is a magnificent pet sitter and I hope he gets lots of business because he deserves all good things!!!”


“I cannot say enough good things about Eric! He came over to meet my stranger-danger pup a few days before I went out of town and has above and beyond to make sure my dog is safe,comfortable and well cared for while I’m gone! The updates I’ve gotten throughout my trip have reassured me that they are having a great time while I travel. I’ll definitely be having him pet sit again!”


“Julie is the absolute best! She dog sat at my home for 9 days, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! Julie went out of her way to build a relationship with my sweet girl, Lumi, who was rescued from abuse and neglect and can be reactive, barky, and nervous. Julie is a true dog-lover, and it shows in how much care and professionalism she puts into her dog sitting and walks. She more than willingly took the time to learn all of Lumi’s little quirks and how to manage meds, walks and adventures, etc so that they could have a fun time together. Julie sent photos and updates everyday, and I could see how content and happy Lumi was spending time with her. I’m so thankful to have found Julie, and I look forward to booking her again in the future!”


“Telecia was amazing! 🤩 super easy to work with and willing to help us on such a quick turn around! She arrived timely and was super great with the pups from the beginning! We highly recommend her!”


About: We have had horses, cows, chickens, goats, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, you name it. I am very good at communicating with them and making them feel at home. I am a nursing student in need of a good paying job with a flexible schedule. This opportunity seemed perfect to me especially since outside of class I don’t get to interact with animals a lot! My home is very safe. Our fields have fences around them and I would keep your fur babies on leashes if they need to be!

“Reilly saved me in a time crunch situation and was so flexible with the planning! She kept me updated constantly and took such good care of each of my dogs. They are very different personalities and she really catered to each one of them! Will be using her regularly when her schedule works :)”


About: I grew up with 3 dogs and 4 cats. All rescues, all crazy in their own ways. I've been pet sitting about half my life now. I've saved dogs from coyotes and have helped cats with asthma. I've walked Great Danes in the valleys of Los Angeles and walked cute chihuahuas in North Carolina. I've assisted with Wolfdog care and encountered mountain lions in California. I've been exposed to many 4 legged creatures and respect them all the same. I currently have a pitbull mastiff and she's the sweetest thing. Except when she sees a groundhog. She's about 80 lbs. I still pick her up all the time to get her onto my bed or just to hold for a second. I know doggy CPR and am a 1st responder. If your dog needs to burn energy or lose a few pounds im your person. I can train the basics and some tricks here and there. I'm pretty good with navigating activities for your dog and looking out for any signs of distress or sickness. I have a pretty open schedule and can be flexible as well. My dog will never be exposed to yours regardless of how friendly your dog may seem. My yard is open, so I always walk pets on a leash. In a client's home, I just abide by what the owner states. I don't go against wishes because it takes 1 time to make a mistake. In my own home I usually let dogs have free roam unless advised otherwise.

About: I've been taking care of animals from fish to Llamas since I was a young child. Nothing makes me happier than being with animals. I've been taking care of my friends' pets for so long, I figured I'd make help other folks too. I make my own schedule currently, so if we are a good fit, it's no problem to make my schedule work around what you need. I am more than happy to accommodate any specific requests and or needs that you may have. I trust your judgment and know how important it is to respect the wishes of the pet owner. Just let me know what you need and I'll be happy to do it.

“This was our first time using a dog/house sitter and it was perfect! Johnny was terrific and we can't thank him enough. We can't wait to plan another trip and know that our pups are being cared for like we care for them. Thank you! Thank you!”


“I am so so happy I met Beth Ann! Words can not even describe how grateful I am and how wonderful she made my vacation. I have 2 pit bulls, 1 who is still a puppy and VERY hyper and when I came home from my one week vacation not only were both of my babies happy and comfortable but my Beth Ann had taught my puppy how to sit! I’m a full time working mom with crazy hours so needless to say my house is no where near perfect and to my amazement when I came home, my house was spotless! I was able to talk to Beth Ann everyday and receive multiple pictures and videos of my babies and saw how happy they were! Again I am SO thankful for Beth Ann and HIGHLY recommend her! She is a true sweetheart and feels like part of the family now!”


“Our pets and home were very well taken care of ! Regan sent us photo/ video updates of our fur and feather babies which allowed us to feel great about getting away Completely trusted Regan and Chris and highly recommend”


About: Animals are my absolute passion! I have been around animals my whole life and will treat any dog like they are part of the family!

I live on a quiet street in the country, with a big open yard. It is not fenced in but we do have an underground electric fence if need be! I have 2 fur babies to keep yours company, and am home all day!

“Alana was amazing house sitting and caring for my dog Tillie on short notice. Tillie is pretty shy but immediately was at ease with Alana, and they had a great time together with lots of snuggles! Alana left my house in excellent condition and was very communicative with picture updates of Tillie. Would definitely book again!”

“Cayla house sat for me while I was away for the weekend. My dog is really anxious and generally scared of people, but she handled him perfectly and he was in a good mood when I returned. She is trustworthy and I would recommend her for anyone that needs their pets watched after.”
