Personalized care for your dog or cat - Cecil
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Cecil
“Brian and his wife took exceptional care of our cat, Sophie, for about two weeks while we were on a cruise in Alaska. They provided daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Sophie was in great hands. Sophie can be quite vocal, especially when it comes to food, but they handled her quirks wonderfully. We were able to fully enjoy our trip, thanks to their attentive care and excellent communication. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend them as sitters!”
“Emily always takes good care of Scout. Scout comes home so much more relaxed than when she goes to the kennel, so I know Emily makes her feel at home. She even took special care and administered meds when Scout had a wound right before drop off. Hire her!”
“We would highly recommend Tracy for keeping your dog. He and his wife Tammy treated our dog Spirit like she was theirs. She was allowed most any where in the house. Tracy did her favorite thing by walking her 4 times a day. He gave us progress reports an pictures every day. So that we didn’t miss her quite as bad. We will definitely be leaving her with him again.”
“Sherry was absolutely amazing with my dogs, and I can’t recommend her enough! From the moment I met her, it was clear how much she genuinely cares. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dogs looked so happy and comfortable in her care!”
“Super nice and friendly, gives updares and provides pictures every day and flexible on pickup and drop off times. Definitely recommend 💯 and will leave my dogs with her any day.”
“Justyce was great with Koda! She was kind, dependable, and took wonderful care of him while I was away. Koda seemed happy and comfortable with her, which gave me peace of mind. I’d definitely recommend Justyce and book with her again”
“Great experience. It's easy to see right away that Stephanie is an animal lover. We will definitely use her again! Thank you so much Stephanie. I think Casey is already missing you.”
“Last minute savior!!! Lee Ann made sure I was up to date on Luke and kept me informed! I got pictures and videos and he looked so happy when leaving, but still wanted to say Goodbye. Thank you so much for helping and taking care of our old man Luke!”
“Kel was WONDERFUL! I was kept up to date with pictures of our Ace and she was extremely responsive if I asked after him. Ace had so much fun I wasn't sure he'd want to come home again! Absolutely will book with Kel again!”

“Just picked up our pup, Mike and his family are amazing! From communication to flexibility to treating our pup as their own, I can’t say enough good things about this family and experience (in a new city). Thank you, thank you, thank you! 10/10 WILL be utilizing their care again!”
“Lark and her family are amazing! She sent lots of texts updating me how our pup was doing while we were away. Ollie got lots of attention and was happy to be in their home. We will definitely check her availability first the next time we need pet care.”
“Lauren and her husband were great with my two pups. She communicated often about how my pups were doing and sent great pictures. I was so thankful that we found her since my Scout has diabetes. She was able to give him his insulin shots and his other medications. She is training to be a PA, so she knows what she is doing. Plus, her mom has a dog with diabetes that she has given shots to. I highly recommend Lauren! She was awesome!”
“She was amazing! My dogs were so tired when I picked them up from all the fun they had! She was very understanding to my dogs food allergy. She was great at communicating and sending photos. I will for sure book with her again!”
About: With a deep passion for animals and a genuine love for dogs, I am an experienced pet caregiver with an extensive background in pet sitting. Having two beloved dogs of my own, they have taught me invaluable lessons about responsibility and unconditional love. I have been providing dedicated and reliable pet services, ensuring that each furry friend receives the utmost attention, care and affection while their owners are away. I believe that every pet deserves a safe, happy, and comfortable environment, and I am committed to creating that atmosphere during my pet setting and have a flexible schedule enabling me to be there whenever needed, and can always work from home. With two dogs of my own, they can always play and have a good time with one another and I have worked with dogs from twelve weeks old to fifteen years so I am adaptable with their care.
About: I've cared for dogs for many years through my own pets, regularly caring for friends' and family members' dogs, and volunteering with animals at a shelter. During college, I frequently watched dogs/cats for classmates while they were away, including providing feeding, walks, playtime, and general supervision. I also provided extended care for an active-duty military friends dog while they were deployed. I currently have my own dog and am comfortable following individual routines and making sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m primarily available Friday evenings through Sunday, with my weekend availability running until around 7 PM on Sunday. I can also accommodate shorter weekday visits, such as potty breaks or walks, between approximately 6–8 PM when needed (just send a message first!). I work full-time during the week, so I’m mainly a weekend sitter and am happy to provide consistent weekend care. I take pet safety and individual routines seriously and will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and other care needs. For drop-in visits, I can provide potty breaks, neighborhood walks, or supervised playtime, including trips to the dog park when appropriate. I have my own friendly dog, Millie, so dogs staying in my home would need to be comfortable around other dogs. I live in an apartment, so dogs in my care get regular outdoor walks and supervised exercise.
“Summer was amazing with our lab Lilly. She communicated with me great, sent pictures and updates. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times as we were going out of town. We will definitely use Summer again because our pup came home in the best mood unlike when we've boarder her in the past.”
“Avery is absolutely wonderful! She’s so sweet and caring, and my dog Munch loves going to her house. He felt comfortable right away and got along perfectly with her cats—no issues at all. It’s clear that Avery has a natural way with animals and provides a warm, welcoming environment. I always feel at ease knowing Munch is happy and well cared for with her. Highly recommend!”
“Cassidee was great! She kept an amazing line of communication and kept us posted on all our dogs activities and day to day! We look forward to having our dog visit with her again. Thank you!”

“Stephanie has been absolutely amazing with my dog! He is scared of pretty much everything, not just new people, so it can take a lot of patience and understanding for him to truly feel comfortable. Stephanie took the time to get to know him, learn what makes him comfortable, and let him warm up to her on his own terms. She never rushed him and always goes above and beyond to make sure he feels safe and cared for. She is so sweet, patient, and genuinely concerned about his comfort and well-being. That means so much to me because I know my dog isn’t always the easiest to win over. Knowing that Stephanie is willing to put in the extra time and effort to make him feel secure gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. I’m extremely grateful to have found her, and I will absolutely be using her again! I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet like their own. ❤️🐾”
“Hannah was incredible again! Our dogs adore her and they’re always so happy when we get home. This says a lot since we have a rescue who is normally very shy and reserved after we are gone for a bit! We cannot wait to use her again!”
“Tracy is a fantastic dog sitter! I recently hired Tracy to look after my two dogs, Dixie and Kaya, while I was away, and he absolutely exceeded my expectations. From the very first communication, Tracy was professional, responsive, and genuinely enthusiastic about caring for them. He arrived on time for every feeding, and play session and sent daily updates with photos and messages so I never had to worry. If you're looking for a reliable, caring sitter, I highly recommend Tracy. My dogs were in great hands, and I'll definitely be booking him again the next time I travel. Thanks, Tracy!”
“Tasha was wonderful when watching our cat. She kept us up to date and well informed while we were away. She sent us the best pictures of our cat that made us smile.”
About: “I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets. Both my pets are rescues, which has taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of individualized care. I’m dependable, follow schedules carefully, and provide updates so owners can feel confident their pets are well cared for.” I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for pets during the week after school and on weekends.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Cecil
“What a wonderful experience Ziggy had with Tracey! My furry boy can be a little anxious in new environments, but his sitter was absolutely amazing. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear Ziggy was in kind and thoughtful hands. When we picked Ziggy up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a fantastic time. I couldn't have asked for a better visit for him and highly recommend this compassionate and attentive dog sitter!”

She was able to give him his insulin shots and his other medications. She is training to be a PA, so she knows what she is doing. Plus, her mom has a dog with diabetes that she has given shots to. I highly recommend Lauren! She was awesome!”
“She was amazing! My dogs were so tired when I picked them up from all the fun they had! She was very understanding to my dogs food allergy. She was great at communicating and sending photos. I will for sure book with her again!”
About: I've cared for dogs for many years through my own pets, regularly caring for friends' and family members' dogs, and volunteering with animals at a shelter. During college, I frequently watched dogs/cats for classmates while they were away, including providing feeding, walks, playtime, and general supervision. I also provided extended care for an active-duty military friends dog while they were deployed. I currently have my own dog and am comfortable following individual routines and making sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m primarily available Friday evenings through Sunday, with my weekend availability running until around 7 PM on Sunday. I can also accommodate shorter weekday visits, such as potty breaks or walks, between approximately 6–8 PM when needed (just send a message first!). I work full-time during the week, so I’m mainly a weekend sitter and am happy to provide consistent weekend care. I take pet safety and individual routines seriously and will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and other care needs. For drop-in visits, I can provide potty breaks, neighborhood walks, or supervised playtime, including trips to the dog park when appropriate. I have my own friendly dog, Millie, so dogs staying in my home would need to be comfortable around other dogs. I live in an apartment, so dogs in my care get regular outdoor walks and supervised exercise.
“Summer was amazing with our lab Lilly. She communicated with me great, sent pictures and updates. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times as we were going out of town. We will definitely use Summer again because our pup came home in the best mood unlike when we've boarder her in the past.”
“Avery is absolutely wonderful! She’s so sweet and caring, and my dog Munch loves going to her house. He felt comfortable right away and got along perfectly with her cats—no issues at all. It’s clear that Avery has a natural way with animals and provides a warm, welcoming environment. I always feel at ease knowing Munch is happy and well cared for with her. Highly recommend!”
“Cassidee was great! She kept an amazing line of communication and kept us posted on all our dogs activities and day to day! We look forward to having our dog visit with her again. Thank you!”
About: I lost my two dogs back to back within the past few years and my heart is empty but not ready to get a new dog. I’m retired from the Air Force and a stay ant home mom and have lots of time to care for pets . I’m very active and absolutely love dogs and understand the crucial importance of exercise and activity to their health. Available currently weekends and evenings only since I work full time. I am planning on retiring next year at which time I will be ready to try this full time. I will respect and follow instructions exactly as a former pet owner, I understand how important it is to follow owner’s wishes when it comes to pet care.
About: Hi, I'm Courtney! I have been caring for dogs for over 20 years, both as a pet owner and a professional sitter. Me & my pit bull, Tulip, love new friends and we guarantee that your babies will be loved, well fed & given all the belly rubs while you’re away!! I currently work from home so I have a flexible schedule. I have a large fenced in backyard corner lot with a gate that provides so many places to run & play all day! I am happy to adhere to your babies food schedule!! My fenced-in corner lot provides ample space for running and playtime! My dog, Tulip, loves to make new friends! If your dog is best suited to a one-dog-only home, this would not be the best fit for them!
“Otis loved staying with Jasmyne and her dogs. Her mum's huge labradoodle and he got on great. He was a tired boy when he got back. Great communication, and nice set up in the house too - highly recommended.”
About: I own a Belgian Malinios + a Pitbull/Australian Shepherd mix. I will pet sit any fur baby you need me to! Before those pets I had a German Shepherd. I would love to take care of your baby and keep it safe and content while you get away from home wether it be for work, vacation, or medical. I have school, Monday-Thursday from 7:45am-11:45am. Once i come home i am able to come and pet sit. I have routines for my own animals so if you have a routine i would love to know it so i can abide! I have no current job due to personal issues but i have transportation. I drive myself there and i will have plenty time to play, care for, and keep your sweetheart safe. I keep one of my dogs in a large pen outside to keep him off the road. I go out to play with him 2-3 hours every day. With my puppy she stays inside and we play after every long nap she has and makes sure she goes outside with me very 30 minutes to ensure no accidents. If she has one it is immediately cleaned up and sanitized! She also gets enforced nap time in her crate to ensure she gets proper rest when she refuses her sleep times and becomes restless. I do not hit animals i just bring them outside for a bit until their next potty and reward. As for my cats they live inside with a litter box that is emptied out every other day. They get played with after their naps and i make sure no accidents happen on the floor with them.
