1. Jessika H.

“Jessika was easily the best I’ve found in the app by far. I work long hours and require someone to stop by for a walk and food/water break. She was great with my puppy and even left a little surprise for her. My little girl seemed much less stressed after her visits and it completely removed the stress of worrying about her while working. I would absolutely recommend Jessika!”


2. Zoe J.

“Perfect dog walker.”


3. Cindy K.

“Cindy has been amazing with my pup Raleigh. She has been flexible for me, sweet to him, and gives him a walk and snuggles. I get great pictures and updates! I absolutely recommend her!”


4. Mallory H.
“Mallory was able to watch my chocolate lab for a weekend I was out of town. She did a great job, my dog loved her.”


5. Emily C.

“Tiki and Dolly love their walks with Emily! She is great about communicating their experiences and promptly checks in when she thinks necessary. We will definitely call on her again.”


6. Kim H.


“Kim was awesome! Ms. Binky is recovering from CCL surgery so she is a bit of a special needs case as she works on getting her ROM back. After each visit I got a super-cute pic of Binky and I could tell she was happy with the visit because she was playing with a toy in one picture and carrying her favorite ball in the other. I will definitely book Kim again and I know that Binky will give two paws up for the next visit.”


7. Chris L.

“Chris took great care of my dog. Remi absolutely loves him. The first time we met, I knew Chris was a dog person. My Remi girl knew that as well.”


8. Nicole S.
“Nicole has always been my first choice for caring for my dogs. She's a passionate animal lover who goes the extra mile to ensure my dogs feel loved and well cared for. They are always thrilled to see her! Leaving my dogs with Nicole gives me peace of mind knowing they are in excellent hands.”


9. Ellie A.

“Ellie is amazing! We met before she started walking my dogs and she asked wonderful questions to get to know my dogs. She sends me updates. Ollie Pup and Ellie Rose love her!”


10. Brendle W.
“Brendle did a fantastic job caring for Bubba while I was away. She was very flexible with her schedule, during pickup and drop off times, which took some of the stress off traveling. She ensured he wasn’t alone, and got all the attention he needed. I could tell by Bubba’s demeanor that he enjoyed his stay, he didn’t look stressed like he has in the past. Would definitely recommend Brendle!”


11. Scott & Alanna C.
“Having worked with Scott for 3 1/2 years and known him and his wife personally, I would recommend them as being very thoughtful and conscientious pet owners. They are responsible and think through a situation to find the best possible outcome, while being understanding of their pets needs. They would take wonderful care of any pet that was put in their care!”


12. Madeline M.
“Madeline's love for animals shines through the moment she meets your pet(s). She appreciates that she's caring for a member of your family and treats them as such. She follows your care instructions and keeps you updated on your pet while you're away. She participates in medical assistance dog training at her college so she is willing to share insights with you and work with your pet if they have training needs. I will always think of Madeline first when needing a pet sitter.”


13. Ashlyn W.
About: Hi there! I'm a young professional who's grown up surrounded by animals ever since I can remember. This lifelong love led me to officially launch my own pet care business in my hometown at 14, and I've continued providing these services as I've relocated to different cities. Now, with about a decade of professional experience and a work-from-home arrangement, I can offer your pets consistent care and attention throughout the day. I've cared for all sorts of pets – from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. Whether it's following special diets, administering medications, or using that one trick that always calms an anxious rescue, I adapt to each pet's unique needs. My remote work situation allows me to be available for midday walks, regular check-ins, or just some extra cuddle time when needed. Communication is crucial to me, so you can expect consistent updates and photos of your pets if desired. By choosing me, you're securing a dependable, seasoned, and adaptable caregiver who'll treat your fuzzy family members with the devotion and care all animals deserve. Let's work together to keep your pets happy and healthy! As a work-from-home professional, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. I'm available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. Work officially ends around 4:30pm for me most days - however, my flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various pet care needs, anywhere between early morning visits to evening care. Weekends are open for more extensive services like boarding/home stays. I'm committed to working with you to provide consistent, attentive care that fits your pet's routine and your schedule. I prioritize the safety and comfort of pets in both their homes and mine. For in-home care, I follow your specific instructions meticulously, respecting your space and your pet's familiar environment. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly space with secure areas for play and rest. I'm experienced in administering medications, following dietary requirements, and adapting to each pet's unique needs. Regular updates and open communication ensure you're always informed about your pet's well-being and activities while in my care. Happy to chat about what arrangement works best for you!


14. Sarah H.
“If I needed someone to watch my pets Sarah is the first person I would call. She is a natural caretaker and is incredibly diligent. She owns pets of her own (and has been a pet owner since childhood) and it’s clear when I watch her interact with her pets that she loves them and they improve her life. Sarah is attentive and responsible; her day-to-day job requires she medically care for people, and in the past she has babysat for neighbors. She does every job with the utmost care.”


15. Kiersten H.
“Kiersten is so great! She is responsible, trustworthy, communicative, and goes above and beyond. Our Luna girl loves Kiersten so much that she pouts when we get home!”


16. Trina N.
“Trina took care of my two cats while I was away for 10 days recently. She did an excellent job of coming to my home daily to clean litter box, feed cats and make sure that they had fresh water daily. She would text me updates and pictures regularly to make sure that I knew they were being well cared for.”


17. Katie B.

“Katie is so amazing, very down to earth and understanding of my dogs quirks and needs. Super excited to have found such a sweet person to help me with my dog Dakota. Will definitely be booking again.”


18. Rosemary K.
About: Hi, I’m Rosemary! I love animals and have always grown up with birds, hamsters, cats, and dogs! I currently have one dog named Winston who is a sweet Maltese who loves other dogs. I’m very caring and attentive to animals and love making them as comfortable as possible. I grew up with a lot of pets and have always had a great love for them. I am flexible, especially on the weekends! I’m excited to be able to care for other’s pets and make them assured they are fine while their owners are away. I am definitely happy to care for cats as well as any other type of animal - no discrimination! Please let me know how I can help you and get started! I’m looking forward to caring for your furry friend. My schedule is pretty flexible and doesn't change much with another animal since I have my own dog who has his schedule down pretty well. I treat the animals as my own, they are allowed free range of my apartment if the owner wants. My dog is not crated during the day and likes to have a buddy to pal around with and play.




19. Lisangela H.
“I would trust Lisa with all of my dog’s needs, I’ve known her for several years and watched her raise her little puppy Mikey into a healthy adult lab. She has taken care of my lab, Pepper, several times and everything has gone smoothly. I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter, her price, love and care are the best around!”


20. Shalina Z.
“Shalina is great with pets! She treats them like family and I have full confidence that she will treat any pet extremely well. She’s an animal lover through and through and she has experience with older animals as well. I highly recommend her and completely trust her!!”
