“Alexandra is a very friendly and punctual. My dog loved having her watch him. He felt very at ease with her as we could tell by the picture she sent of him on his back and paws in the air asking for a belly rub. Will definitely ask Alexandra to watch him again.”
“Fen was Fantastic! She took so good care of our dogs, that when I came home, they went around me, and said, where's Fen? LOL. They really like her a lot! I have her re-booked for my next business trips. She treated them with loving care. Great communication with me. Great pictures. Thank you very much Fen!”
“Melissa was great! This was our second time using her and we will definitely use her again! Definitely recommend her to come into your home and dog sit. She is wonderful with our puppy and Sassy loves her!”
“Lauren was great! We got daily updates and she took great care of our anxious boy. When we got home you couldn’t even tell someone stayed at our house. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Thanks Adam for taking care of our pups and allow us to have a relaxing get away! Adam takes such great care of both my high energy crazy girl and senior boy huskies! Highly recommend Adam, great with communication and very accommodating”
“Gracie was absolutely amazing with our two pups! We were given updates and pictures all throughout the day and never had to worry about a thing when we were out of town. We have used this service a lot and haven’t had anyone that can hold a candle to how great Gracie was! Will definitely be calling her again in the future!”
“Olivia took great care of Percy while we were away and sent really lovely updates with pictures throughout the stay which we really appreciated! We knew our home and Percy were in good hands with Olivia.”
“Miguel is incredibly considerate and amazing with dogs. He took great care of my house and dog while I was away and provided updates along the way. Will definitely book with him again.”
“Bonnie surpassed all expectations! My pups took to her immediately at the meet and greet, and were showered with attention during the overnight housesitting. Bonnie brought treats and ruffs for my dogs and sent several pictures and dates over the 2 days. My German Shepherd is especially a nervous Nelly, but he was happy and at ease with Bonnie right away. Caring for two big dogs is not the easiest, but Bonnie did an amazing job. I was so relieved I didn’t have to leave them at daycare and that they were being so well cared for. If you can work with Bonnie, do it! I am so happy to have found a reliable and enthusiastic carer for my dogs.”
About: Hi! I’m Claire and I love taking care of animals!! I have had dogs my entire life, as well as one cat. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and sizes, including feeding and walks. I am comfortable with giving medications and maintaining training routines as well. I will take care of every pet as if they are my own! I’m currently in school/internship part-time. I am available 4-5 days a week, with internship the other 2-3 days of the week. I am flexible with scheduling, as my school schedule changes each week. I have one dog and one cat that get along with other animals. I have a crate, toys, bowls, and leashes as well. My backyard is perfect for running around.
“Chloe was a great relief and very flexible with some last minute unexpected health needs for my dog during our vacation. She kept me updated throughout our trip and gave excellent care to my fur babies while I was away.”
About: I have 3 years experience babysitting for a private family, they had 3 children and a dog. On multiple occasions I was asked to come to the house once or twice a day, let her out, play with her and feed her! I’ve done this one day at a time, or even 4-5 days in a row as they were out of town! I also dog sat/house sat last summer for an adorable senior black lab for two weeks. I slept at the house, fed her, took her on walks, and of course played with her! I recently dog sat for 4 days, and just came twice a day to let him out, play with him, feed him, and took him on a walk as she requested! I’m currently working part time, so my schedule is flexible enough for me to consistently provide attentive pet care throughout the week! I enjoy making time for walks, play, and scratches. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible to help them and you feel comfortable and stress free. In my client’s home, I make sure pups are fed on schedule, exercised, given attention, and kept in a clean and safe environment! I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
“Cynthia was so wonderful! She was incredibly conscientious and thoughtful. And a super fast communicator. Our dog was happy and well taken care of when we got home and clearly loved his time with her!”
“Robert was very great to watch my dogs. He took them out for walks very often and took great care of them. Would hire him again for sure and recommend him to anyone who asks me about a pet sitter:)”

Rey is a kind quiet person and with that said, I had concerns with our youngest dog Izzy. Izzy is a Chesapeake Bay Retriever, only 2 years old and quite feisty. She is still in field training and Dad is her "person" so I wondered if she would "own" Rey. Jack is our Lab and easy as can be. Rey did great. Lots of messages and photos... A+ for Rey!
Juliet was an amazing sitter! If ever I need a sitter again I will definitely be in touch. She spent time walking and playing fetch with Guppy Goose and kept her company while we were away. Trust was built pretty quickly, partly due to her great communication! Thanks Juliet!
This was our second time having Lisa check in our guinea pig, Storm, while we were on vacation. Storm was comfortable with her right away, and she shared the cutest photos. Lisa took extra time and care around the house. Would gladly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable pretty care. 😊
Absolutely amazing experience! Annie went above and beyond caring for my dog and my home. I received frequent updates and tons of adorable pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog looked happy and well cared for in every photo. When I returned home, the house was spotless—just as I left it. I truly appreciate the level of care, communication, and attention to detail. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
Katherine was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Bentley and Ellie! From the moment she arrived, she was caring, attentive, and made us feel completely at ease leaving them in her care. She followed all instructions perfectly, including giving medications, and sent us thoughtful updates and pictures while we were away. The dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while with her. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend her!
