“Taylor regularly walks/house sits for my dog! She’s always reliable and communicative when she’s taking care of my pup. I absolutely recommend Taylor for your pets needs!”

About: Even though I grew up with cats, I have always had a love for dogs as well! As a kid, I would always play with our neighbors and friends’ dogs and wished for my own dog. Over the past few years, I have gained experience helping my friends and sister take care of their pups, whether it be walking, feeding or playing with them. I have also taken care of my sisters bunny, Cupid! I love getting to know more about pups’ personalities, and give them all the love and attention! I am currently a college student who is on summer break, but going to be participating in an internship during the week over the summer. However, I am available on weekends and if you need someone to check on your animal in the evening! During this time, I will only be available for house sitting on the weekends. I am observant and respectful to both the pet’s and owner’s needs, and will do everything to ensure that your home and furry friends are well taken care of! I would love to have a meet and greet ahead of time to get to know your pet and their personality, preferences and environment!
“We recently had David dog sit for us, and he did a fantastic job! He came over the night before to meet our dogs and get familiar with their routine, which we really appreciated. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was thoughtful and prepared. While we were away, our flight ended up being delayed by almost five hours, and David stayed longer without hesitation to make sure our dogs were well taken care of. That kind of reliability and flexibility is rare and so appreciated. When we got home, it was clear the dogs were happy, calm, and well looked after. We’re very grateful for David’s care and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and kind dog sitter!”


“Elizabeth help make our vacation over Christmas a worry free relaxing vacation. The biggest thing of going away is how are the dogs. Not to is time. Will definitely recommend and use her services again. Thanks Elizabeth”

“Yvette spent a couple of days with Oliver and was great within. She provided timely updates and pictures, asked questions when needed and Oliver was great with her. Would definitely book her again.”

“Lisbeth was great with our furbabies! She took great care of our home & pets, and provided fabulous pictures while we were gone. She was very responsive to us, and also respectful in her updates, and not at all bothersome of our vacation. Our dog is high energy and pretty attached to us, and Lisbeth took excellent care of him, with lots of walks, fetch, attention and care, so he was happy while we were gone (& when we came back). We would ABSOLUTELY have Lisbeth stay again! Thank you Lisbeth - you’re a gem & rockstar!!”

“Melissa was wonderful with our new tiny Maltese puppy Penny. She was loving and patient with Penny and we look forward to having her come stay with Penny again in our home.”

About: I’ve been house sitting/pet sitting since I was around 17 years old. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I’ve watched dogs, cats, turtles, lizards, fish and more. I’m familiar with pee pads, crate training and dog diapers. I will always treat your animal with respect and kindness, showing them so much love while you are away. I’m currently not working so I would have plenty of time to be with your furbaby. I do volunteer work during the week but I would still have plenty of time to care and be with your animal. I can walk, play, snuggle, crate train and prepare meals for your animals. You just tell me what the preferred routine is and I’ll do my best to match that so your animal feels safe and loved.

About: Hi! I’m Lindsay, a 19-year-old college student originally from New Jersey. Some things about me that I do on my free time is going on runs, going to the beach, and spending time with friends and family. I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, my family always had dogs, and now currently have a tabby cat. I’ve frequently helped care for pets belonging to friends and relatives as well. I will always enjoy spending time with pets whether it be on a walk or just hanging out with them to keep company! I also have been caring for pets through a different app as well providing walks, sittings, drop ins, etc with a 5 star rating! The same love and attention I give to my pet will be the same for yours! I’m currently working part-time at Ben And Jerry’s. Usually Mondays, Thursdays, Friday, Saturdays. However, I work around my schedule as a pet-caregiver. I understand how important it is to feel safe and comfortable when leaving your pet in someone’s care. I promise to treat your pet with the same love, respect, and attention that I give to my own. Your pet’s well-being and happiness will always be my top priority, and I will make sure they feel secure and cared for every step of the way!
About: I've always had a passion for animals and have enjoyed caring for them throughout my life. I currently specialize in cat sitting, bringing 6 years of experience to ensure your feline friends receive the best care. While I do offer services for dogs as well, my primary focus right now is on providing dedicated services for cats. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of the time to play with your dogs and cats. I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 2pm. I have a fenced yard and 1 friendly dog and cat to keep your fur baby company and I’m happy to assist with your pets' needs.
About: If you're looking for a dog-lover and loyal caretaker, I'm here for you and your pet! I'm happy to provide a loving space for your pet while you travel, or walks when needed. I work from home mostly--I am in the office two days a week (every Tuesday and Wednesday.) All other days I am flexible with my schedule. Pets are welcome on my furniture--while they are here, they are free to make themselves comfortable! Playtime, walks and car rides (if they like them) are encouraged.
“Julia was great! She sent lots of photos and our dog and cat were well taken care of, not easy with a big 75lb puppy. She also left the house cleaner than I think we left it. She's great”

“Melinda is amazing! She came to meet my pup ahead of time, developing a real rapport with her. During her time with my puppy, she communicated very well, took great care of my dog, and showed her real love. She also did a little dog training, which was very welcome. Love Melinda and our experience with her.”

Isabel is great! She watched my baby for while I was away for a trip and loved on him exactly the way I would. Fleece can be a handle with between his energy and clinginess and Isabel did an amazing job. She was communicative every step of the way followed all care instructions and sent plenty of picture of my baby while I was away. I even had an emergency at the house while I was away and she handled it great! Offering extra help wherever she could. If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to contact Isabel!
