“Donai was amazing and we’ll be working with her again! Our finicky old gal, Meeka, wasn’t a fan at first (like she is with everyone, not Donai’s fault). But Donai was patient with her and let Meeka warm up to her in her own way. Donai walked her daily and followed our feeding directions and took great care of her like she was her own. By day 2 Meeka let Donai’s pet her and by day 3 there were cuddles and Meeka wouldn’t leave her side. Thank you so much!”

“Desiree is awesome! I greatly appreciate her being available last minute, working with my schedule for a meet and greet the day before, and taking amazing care of my 2 pups! The love and attention she showed them was exactly what I hoped for. Will definitely use her in the future.”

“Jenna watched our two giant dogs for a quick trip. She sent photo and video updates, letting us know how they were doing. It went great and I’ll definitely be rebooking next time!”

“Brandon is an amazing dog sitter! He treated all of our dogs like his own and was super dependable. He came over and met the dogs prior to his first stay with them and got along great. He isn’t afraid of asking questions and is very kind. We will definitely be using him again.”

“Becca was very sweet and attentive to our babies needs! She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages about how they were doing. Will definitely continue hiring her in the near future!”

“Charlotte is an incredible dog sitter! She took such great care of Watson and our home. She’s very communicative and sends lots of photos. I felt completely at ease while we were gone. We would absolutely ask her again next time.”

About: My family has rescued large dogs since I was a small child. I also have four years of experience working in boarding at Pet Station Country Club. I am very familiar with ‘weird’ dogs and am experienced in handling dogs that may not be considered friendly. My own dog can be a bit of a problem child— and I love her with my whole heart and more. I’m pet first aid and pet CPR certified, I also have experience administering medication if that is something your pet requires. Overall, if you’ve got a pet who needs a little extra TLC, I’m the sitter for you! I am currently working full-time, 9AM-5PM on weekdays. I am fully available on the weekends and evenings, aside from Mondays. I’m willing to housesit on weeknights on the condition you’re comfortable with my work schedule. If you’re not sure about scheduling feel free to reach out and we can discuss finer details! When housesitting or stopping by for walks I will follow whatever conditions you are comfortable with! I understand how important routines can be for our furry friends.
“I highly recommend Emmelea! This was our first time using her for an overnight stay, and she exceeded all expectations. Her communication was top-notch; we received regular updates and so many cute pictures that showed how happy and well-cared-for our pup was. She truly treated him like her own. We feel so lucky to have found her and will 100% book with her again!”

“Willow answered my plea for dog sitting at the very last minute for a week long trip. I came home to my house in the same condition I left it, sheets in the washer, and a happy dog. Five stars.”

About: I have watched cats and dogs (including puppies) for years! I have two special needs cats and a senior special needs dog. I have so much patience and love for animals and have managed to transform the lives of my 3 pets mentioned above simply through giving them the space they need, the love they need, and the attention they ask for. I work in animal care and have animals at home to care for as well, so caring for other's animals fits into place around my work schedule. I am able to do drop-ins before 9:00am and after 6:00pm (5:00pm on weekends). I care for pets in their home and do my best to mind people's privacy and focus on the pet. My visits include food and water refreshes, scooping litter as needed, and lots of cuddles and playtime. I will always send pictures and updates about our visits.
About: I am grateful to have had the opportunity to help out my neighbors, friends, and family for any pet visits, walks, and general house/pet-sitting for the last 5 years. I currently have two cats, Noam and Andre who are my dear children that my world revolves around. Please reach out with any additional questions. I am available Monday through Friday for morning and afternoon walks and visits. Feel free to reach out if you are interested in multiple visits or walks a day. I am available for dog walks and cat + dog visits. I am a Germantown resident, so I'm accepting clients who are within a 5-minute walk in order to provide multiple visits and/or walks per day. Please feel free to provide me with any special routine or instructions that your pet may need or prefer. I'm happy to accommodate them to make them feel content and safe while their parent is away.
“Bayley took great care of our big boy goldendoodle! She provided frequent updates while we were away and was extremely responsive. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

About: I have years of experience providing reliable and passionate pet care for all ages and sizes. I am also experienced in puppy training, senior care, and providing medication if needed. I take the utmost care to ensure that your pup's safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I work from home so I am flexible in that regard. I can take my work around any space if needed and work around your schedule. I clean up after pets thoroughly as well as provide them with lots of potty breaks and exercise. I never have them meet new dogs for their safety.
“Katie watched our rottie and mixed breed while we went on a short overnight trip. She sent pictures, kept the house clean, and the pups were happy as can be! We had a water leak (no fault of Hers) while we were gone, she called us immediately and took care of clean up so we didn’t have to leave our trip early. Would highly recommend her for any of your pet needs! :D”

“Second time having Alan Michael watch Stella and second time he was available last minute for me, this time same day. He takes great care of her and I have peace of mind leaving her in his care. He'll definitely be the first person I look for when I need it.”

“Julia was amazing, flexible, respectful and professional. I will definitely use her again. We need up only needing her for about 7 hours but originally planned on 3-4 days not due to her. I look forward to having her back. Recommend her.”

Ryo did a great job for our 10 night house/cat-sit. Great communication, sent plenty of pictures, and I know that our three shy cats were definitely building that comfort and familiarity you all hope for in a house or pet sitter. Only feedback is the water bowls needed one last top-up, but not the end of the world. Overall Ryo was super respectful of our space, and left everything in its place. You'll be our first choice for future cat and house sitting needs if you're interested Ryo, that's for sure! Thanks again so much.

Brandon is an amazing dog sitter! He treated all of our dogs like his own and was super dependable. He came over and met the dogs prior to his first stay with them and got along great. He isn’t afraid of asking questions and is very kind. We will definitely be using him again.

This was my first time using Katie and I couldn’t be more impressed. From the start, her communication was prompt and reassuring — exactly what you need when leaving your pup with someone new. Camo clearly had a wonderful time; you could just tell he was comfortable and well cared for. What really set Katie apart was coming home to a clean house with fresh sheets — she didn’t just watch Camo, she treated my home with total respect. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare and it means everything. She was reliable, punctual, and went above and beyond in every way. I will absolutely be booking Katie again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust. 🐾

Brooke was so wonderful with our two dogs!!! It was such a relief to find someone to take care of both our dogs while all my family was out of town. She did great giving one dog medicine and with making food for a picky dog. Also our house was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Brooke and I will be using her again.
