“Absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! Lorelle was so attentive to our dog Gracie and sent updates with photos daily. I have never felt so good about leaving my dog! Lorelle was excellent and I highly recommend. Feel so blessed to have found her!”
“Banafshe went above and beyond with George. He had some last minute medical issue which required some extra care (pills and a daily paw wash) and Banafshe was willing to attend to them and give George the extra love he needed. She is fantastic and you can tell how much she loves our 🐶!!”
“Annie is amazing and so good with our dog. We’ve never left our pets with anyone and she made us feel at ease and comfortable leaving him with someone we trust. Also takes great action shots of our boy.”
“She was a fantastic host and Atticus just loved her not only was she extremely good with him but I feel like she went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again.”
“Sandra was super nice and communicative through the whole stay about what they were up to and sending pictures. Our dog seemed to really enjoyed staying with their family and got along great with their dog Mocha. Will definitely reach out to Sandra the next time we need a sitter.”
“Thuy took great care of my dog and I'm very happy to choose her for watching my dog. She was very accommodating and responsive to messages. Photos provide of my dog while she was was there were great to see. My dog is very shy and Thuy was great with being patient and caring.”
“Emely was able to accommodate us last-minute and was quick to respond, provided multiple updates, and was so sweet with our dog. We know Penny had an absolute blast and already have plans to book Emely again!”
“Another 5 star experience with Wen! She kindly accepted my booking on such short notice. She went above and beyond cleaning my dog’s wound that had occurred the night before and I had no time to visit the vet yet. She is our go to sitter. Amazing as always!”
“I felt completely at ease leaving Maaska for her overnight stay—I truly didn’t have to worry at all because I knew she was in such good hands. I’m so grateful for the care she received. She got to enjoy being in a home with a yard and even play with other dogs, which made the experience extra special. Honestly, it felt like the best sleepover of her life! I would absolutely leave her again and highly recommend her care.”
“May (Homeira) was absolutely wonderful with Shadow, especially on New Year’s Eve. From the moment I picked him up, I could tell he was genuinely loved and well cared for. Shadow had the freedom to enjoy her beautiful garden and felt comfortable and at home in her space, which means everything to me as a dog parent. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he wasn’t just being watched, but truly cared for with warmth, patience, and attention. I’m incredibly thankful for May and would trust her again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with German Shepherds, a Cocker Spaniel, and a mixed-breed dog. Later, when I started my own family, we welcomed Fiera, our Labrador Retriever. She grew up alongside my children—they were like siblings and partners in crime. If you’ve ever had a Lab, you know exactly what I mean. 😁 When Fiera was about five years old, Glitch, our little Shihpoo, joined the family. Fiera crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 13, and we still miss her every day. 💗 Making your pup feel safe and cared for is my priority. If your dog isn’t acting like themselves, isn’t eating normally, or just seems “off,” I’ll notice and I’ll let you know. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions, whether it’s feeding routines, walks, medications, or special care. I have experience giving oral medications, eye and ear medications, topical treatments, and subcutaneous injections when prescribed by a veterinarian. When I’m caring for your dog, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages. While you’re away, I’m also happy to bring in mail and packages, water indoor or outdoor plants, rotate lights if requested, and help keep your home looking lived-in. Just let me know what you need, and I’ll do my best to help. 🐾 Health & Safety For the health and safety of all pets in my home, dogs staying with me must be free of fleas and ticks and current on veterinarian-recommended vaccinations, including rabies as required by law. I understand that some dogs may be unable to receive certain vaccines or use flea/tick preventatives for medical reasons. Please let me know in advance so we can discuss your veterinarian’s recommendations and make sure I can safely accommodate your pet. If fleas or ticks are discovered at any time during your pet’s stay, I will contact you immediately. Any necessary treatment will be discussed with you first and must be appropriate for your pet. Any treatment expenses and additional cleaning costs resulting from fleas or ticks will be the pet parent’s responsibility. I’m currently completing professional training from home, so I spend most of my day at home. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of companionship for the pets in my care. Our home is shared with our small dog, Glitch, and our indoor cat, Vinnie. Both are important members of our family. Glitch enjoys having canine visitors, and he has always done well with dogs in our home. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, I carefully introduce dogs and only accept dogs that are friendly with cats. We have a fully fenced yard. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s normal routine, including using a crate if they’re already crate trained and comfortable with it.
“Ellie and her family spoiled our dog Jager. He enjoyed a great deal of walks and playing. They even offered him a bigger and more supportive bed than the one I brought over. We will see if Ellie and her family are available to dogsit Jager again the next time we go out-of-town.”
“I highly recommend Muskaan! Sully was acting off on the day I brought him to her and she was very reassuring. She sent me plenty of daily updates with pictures and videos so that I knew Sully was doing well. He was walked twice a day and got lots of love. It was a great experience.”
“This was my first time using rover I was a little nervous but I had an amazing experience and Sondra and Kirk were so nice and accommodating when I was running late and leia had a great stay and got updated with photos throughout the day! Thank you can’t wait for leia to stay again!”
“Jocelyn was attentive, response, kind and patient to my little Almond. I received many pictures and updates during her stay. I am extremely grateful and would highly recommend Jocelyn!”
“Elmira loves pets and took very good care of Ruby, and sent me lots of videos and photos of her while I was away, which was much appreciated, letting me see how Ruby was doing. She is very interested in learning what your pets are used to and trying to provide that, and is very responsive to any comments or concerns.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and now share my home with a sweet, calm Golden Retriever who loves making new friends. She enjoys cozy naps, gentle play, and relaxed companionship with other dogs. I work from home, so your pup will have attentive company throughout the day. They can enjoy supervised time in my secure fenced backyard, along with potty breaks, affection, gentle play, and plenty of restful downtime indoors. I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible and send photo updates so you can see they are safe, comfortable, and enjoying their day. My home is best suited to calm dogs with low to medium energy who enjoy a quieter pace. I want every pup, including my own, to feel relaxed and comfortable, so I’m a particularly good fit for dogs who like gentle play, cozy naps, and a peaceful day with caring company. I work from home full time, so your dog will have attentive company throughout the day. My calm Golden Retriever, Gigi, enjoys gentle play, cozy naps, and spending time with other easygoing dogs. Your dog will stay in a calm, comfortable home with access to a secure fenced backyard with artificial turf. I keep the home cool and will be home throughout their stay to supervise, provide care, and make sure they feel settled. I host only one visiting dog at a time, in addition to Gigi, so each guest gets individual attention. This is a great fit for calm dogs with low to medium energy who enjoy gentle companionship.

“Dawn was amazing with my kittens! She was incredibly helpful, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure they were well taken care of. I really appreciated how communicative she was throughout the entire process—it gave me so much peace of mind. She kept me updated and was always responsive, which made everything feel easy and stress-free. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring!”
“Made sure he didn’t get out of the house and sent videos of the front being locked. fed and watered him as instructed except a couple of times was running late and also trimmed his claws. Overall satisfied and would use Hoai services again.”
“Our Atticus kitty is so shy and loves to hide from people. But when David came over for the meet and greet, Atticus immediately came out and flopped over and begged him for pets. That’s when we knew we could trust David with our precious kitty. David came over for three visits, on time, fed Atticus, gave him treats and loves, scooped his box, cleaned his puke (😬), and sent us a whole collection of photos for each visit. It was clear from the photos that Atticus loved him and David was taking great care of him. We will absolutely be booking David again!”
“Taylor watched my two cats for 6 days last week. This was my first time using her services and I felt very comfortable with her coming into my home. She was dependable and did a good job. I will be using her services again.”
About: I grew up in a household with multiple dogs, and love caring for all animals! I make sure to pay attention to the animals needs and can do everything from walk, bathe, feed, play with, and more! I have experience with senior dogs as well as dealing with multiple puppies at once. I am currently a student athlete at Gonzaga University and I'm looking for some work that fits with my busy schedule. As long as I can schedule any pet needs a day or so in advance I can be available to help out in any way needed! I grew up taking my dogs on daily walks, feeding them twice a day, taking them out to use the bathroom several times a day, and of course playing with them whenever they get the zoomies. I am very observant when it comes to animals and have a pretty good eye for knowing what they need and when they need it.
“Ilana did an amazing job taking care of our dog. She was on time, followed all instructions, and communicated well. Before we left, she made sure to come by our house to meet the dog, take him for a walk, and really get to know him and our needs. While we were gone, we always knew what was happening as she communicated so effectively. She is the next best thing to having us home! 5 Stars - we will use Ilana again!”
“I felt so much at ease going on our vacation with Caroline watching our fur babies! She took amazing care of our cats and home! One of our cats needs medication and she was great with him! And they arnt the cleanest cats so she was just amazing! The cats loved having her! She had great communication and great photos! I will definitely be calling her for next time!! You can just feel her love for your animals!! THANK YOU AGAIN!!”
About: Hello! My name is Chanel and I’ve always loved animals!! I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and also ride horses in my free time.

“We could not be happier we found Camille to take care of our babies while we’re away. She cares for and loves them as if they are her own, which gives us great peace of mind when we need to leave them. We will absolutely be repeat customers again & again ❤️”
“Rose is absolutely amazing!! She really saved us when we had another sitter quit, mid booking. She is very trustworthy and responsible and great at communicating! We are so happy to have her care for our pets!”
“Ailen was a wonderful pet sitter for our cat and 2 dogs! She was able to watch our pets for a week on short notice and was extremely thorough with her care for them. She is an exceptional communicator, and kept us up-to-date on all things happening while we were away.”
“Thank you for always making me feel so comfortable that Jax is taken care of no matter if it’s a check-in or a long trip. Thank you for always meeting him where he is where he wants to be playful that day or whether he’s made a mess in front of his box. I appreciate it all.”
About: I have taken care of cats throughout the years. I appreciate that cats have unique personalities and love to snuggle and spoil them. I believe all animals should be stress free, especially when their owners aren’t around. I try very hard to make sure they are happy and safe while in my care
“Kaitlyn took exceptional care of our special-needs Ragdoll while we were away. Our cat has asthma and requires multiple medications, including a nebulizer, an inhaler, and pills. Kaitlyn went above and beyond our expectations, ensuring he received all his treatments with care and patience. Not only is she extremely reliable and professional, but she also took great care of our home. When our kitty had a litter box accident and needed a bath, she handled it without hesitation—something not every pet sitter would be willing to do! On top of that, she spent more time with him than we even asked, knowing that he doesn’t like to be alone. That extra care and attention meant so much to us. We returned home to a well-cared-for cat and a house that was just as we left it. We highly recommend Kaitlyn to anyone looking for a compassionate, professional, and dependable pet sitter.”
“I am so grateful I found Laura on this app. She takes great care of my two kitties. I never worry when I’m away because I know I left my fur babies in very capable hands.”
About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life and with this experience with animals and my genuine love for caring for them. I've been around pets my entire life, so I understand how to connect with them and make them feel safe and happy. I especially enjoy walking and spending quality time with pets, making sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I'm usually available most of the time, especially during the holidays and summer. I should be completely free and have very flexible hours to walk or care for your pets. I always make sure to ask clients about their pet’s specific needs and preferences, and I respect any guidelines or routines they provide to ensure their pet feels comfortable and cared for.

“Taro stayed with Ailen, and I could tell she had such a great time! She was always so happy in the pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. 🥰 Ailen also took the time to ask thoughtful questions about Taro and how she should care for her, which was really reassuring. I think Taro even made some new friends! As she’s gotten a little older, she’s not quite as friendly with other dogs as she used to be, so it was really nice to see her enjoying their company and having fun. Ailen is wonderful if you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive to take care of your fur baby. I would definitely recommend her! ❤️”

I aim to build respectful, lasting partnerships with pet parents, and I’ll keep you updated with pics and notes so you always know your pet is safe, loved, and maybe a little spoiled.

“I can’t say enough great things about Chris! From the very first interaction, it was clear that he is incredibly passionate about what he does. His communication was excellent—updates, pictures, and detailed messages made me feel completely at ease while I was away. He was very transparent about everything from the beginning, from feeding, daily routines to how my dog was adjusting and more, which I truly appreciated. He was also super responsive whenever I had questions and reassured me that my dog was in the best possible hands. What really stood out is his knowledge of dogs and behavior. He understood my dog’s behaviors and needs, and fit his needs and care accordingly. It’s rare to find someone who not only has the skills but also genuinely cares for the animals like they’re his own and I appreciated the gift he gave to our Niko. He loves it!”
“Ted had a wonderful time with Sondra and Kirk. They were so easy to communicate with and just the nicest people! 10/10 would recommend. We will definitely be back for future stays.”
“Robin is fantastic! She’s reliable, communicative, flexible and so very kind and compassionate! She took such great care of our fur baby. I highly recommend her! We will definitely be repeat clients :)”
“Highly recommend Lindy! She welcomed our close to 100lb 11mo old Dobermann toddler with a very last minute notice. Our pup really enjoyed spending time with her. She kept in touch with texts and photos. We were so glad to find her!! Definitely using her servive again!”
“I let Todd take care Foxy for the second time. It seems that Foxy likes him and feel comfortable around him. I have very good feelings too and will be his client whenever Foxy needs care. He always updates me with nice photos, and I am very grateful for that. God bless him and his family for being nice to my baby.”
“Alisa and her family were great! Clean house and lots of love for my boy Sherlock. Flexible with drop off + pickup for daycare. If I am ever in town again I would use her for sitting.”

“I can’t say enough great things about David! He is patient, reliable, kind, and truly goes above and beyond. Our foster dog Lady is a very large, hyper terrier mix with little structure or social skills, and she can be overwhelming for most people. David has never been intimidated by her and always shows up with a smile, ready to give her the best care. Lady absolutely adores him — even when she gets overly excited and jumps all over him, he handles it like a total pro. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my pets are in such loving, capable hands. We will absolutely continue using David for Lady and any future foster dogs!”
“Dawn is awesome! After the third day Smokey didn't even look back at me. He saw Dawn and was was tugging at the leash to go. She even worked with me to split his walking time up when he couldn't make it back home one day. He's an old pup. I would highly recommend Dawn to anyone.”
“Chris has been amazing! We have a strong high energy Belgian Malinois who we needed an experienced walker to exercise. Chris was able to take immediate control over him and does a great job tiring him out. He takes Cono’s experience seriously, provides feedback and recommendations and most importantly Cono loves going with him. We are so thankful to have found Chris!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have years of experience caring for them through dog sitting, house sitting, and pet sitting.

“Gayl was very friendly, very easy to work with. She showed up on time and was very communicative in letting us know what had transpired after each walk or visit. I would recommend Gayl to take care of your furry family member.”
“This was my dog Oivia's first roadside walk with anyone other than her family. My pup is 20 months old, big, and obsessed with trying to chase passing cars so I was hesitant to put her on the end of a leash for anyone else, but Kayla was calm and friendly to the point where we ALL felt comfortable, even the dog. Kayla is amazing. I highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of different breeds and sizes for many years. Friends, family, and neighbors rely on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets. I treat every animal like my own and ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I have full availability to care for your pets! I’m home all day and can provide constant attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks throughout the week and on weekends. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fenced yard, two friendly dogs, and two loving sons (ages 7 and 14) who grew up with pets and adore animals. Your dog will get lots of attention, playtime, and care in a clean, safe, and happy environment. I always follow your feeding, medication, and crate instructions to make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved.
About: Hi, I’m Samantha—your pet’s new favorite human. My friends voted me “Most Likely to Come Home from a Girls Weekend with a Dog,” and I wear that title proudly. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—from horses and dogs on my grandparents’ farm to fostering pets and building cat walls in my spare time. I speak fluent cat and dog (yes, I understand the slow blink and the “where are you?” meow). I’m upbeat, funny, and dependable—and I’ll treat your fur-kids like family. When Auntie Samantha visits, pets get greeted first. It’s not personal—it’s priorities. I aim to build respectful, lasting partnerships with pet parents, and I’ll keep you updated with pics and notes so you always know your pet is safe, loved, and maybe a little spoiled. Since I work from home and for myself, my work schedule is very flexible. I enjoy helping others care for their four legged kids, since I remember never having enough time when I was younger. Our fur kids are very used to new siblings coming in the home. We have been fostering for PACT FOR ANIMALS for years. They provide foster homes for military personnel.
About: I have more than 30 years of experience. I started dog-sitting for friends and family and through private referrals. I have cared for dogs of all ages. I will keep you updated with photos and messages. And for additional peace of mind, I have pet-sitter insurance (certificate available upon request). Doggy socializing (the dog park, Starbucks, restaurant patios, doggy play dates with their friends or your fur baby's other favorite hangout spot) are included during overnight stays with dog parents' permission of course. I work from home which allows me to give your fur babies the love and attention that you would want for them and that they deserve. My aim is to provide next level service and to help lessen the stress of being away from your fur baby. All I need is a place to crash (I don't mind sharing the bed with your dogs), the Wi-Fi password, and your doggos to hang out with. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, relaxed, doted on and well looked after while you’re away. Rest assured, during overnight bookings, your pets will be the only ones that I take care of. Meaning, I won't book any drop-ins or walks with other clients.
About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs and cats for 5 years and also have my own cat! I’ve also grown up with them since I was 11 so feel very comfortable providing a safe fun environment for them. I’m currently working part time as a dance instructor so I have plenty of time to care for your pets day or night! I am available for house sits as well. I can work with your home set up. I won’t be able to host pets in my home due to living in a tight space.
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with German Shepherds, a Cocker Spaniel, and a mixed-breed dog. Later, when I started my own family, we welcomed Fiera, our Labrador Retriever. She grew up alongside my children—they were like siblings and partners in crime. If you’ve ever had a Lab, you know exactly what I mean. 😁 When Fiera was about five years old, Glitch, our little Shihpoo, joined the family. Fiera crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 13, and we still miss her every day. 💗 Making your pup feel safe and cared for is my priority. If your dog isn’t acting like themselves, isn’t eating normally, or just seems “off,” I’ll notice and I’ll let you know. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions, whether it’s feeding routines, walks, medications, or special care. I have experience giving oral medications, eye and ear medications, topical treatments, and subcutaneous injections when prescribed by a veterinarian. When I’m caring for your dog, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages. While you’re away, I’m also happy to bring in mail and packages, water indoor or outdoor plants, rotate lights if requested, and help keep your home looking lived-in. Just let me know what you need, and I’ll do my best to help. 🐾 Health & Safety For the health and safety of all pets in my home, dogs staying with me must be free of fleas and ticks and current on veterinarian-recommended vaccinations, including rabies as required by law. I understand that some dogs may be unable to receive certain vaccines or use flea/tick preventatives for medical reasons. Please let me know in advance so we can discuss your veterinarian’s recommendations and make sure I can safely accommodate your pet. If fleas or ticks are discovered at any time during your pet’s stay, I will contact you immediately. Any necessary treatment will be discussed with you first and must be appropriate for your pet. Any treatment expenses and additional cleaning costs resulting from fleas or ticks will be the pet parent’s responsibility. I’m currently completing professional training from home, so I spend most of my day at home. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of companionship for the pets in my care. Our home is shared with our small dog, Glitch, and our indoor cat, Vinnie. Both are important members of our family. Glitch enjoys having canine visitors, and he has always done well with dogs in our home. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, I carefully introduce dogs and only accept dogs that are friendly with cats. We have a fully fenced yard. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s normal routine, including using a crate if they’re already crate trained and comfortable with it.

I have pet-sat many animals before such as dogs, cats, rabbits and Guinea pigs, and I love animals with all my heart. I am very commasionate, hard worker and easy to communicate with. I currently work from home so I have a flexible schedule that can accommodate to your needs. I enjoy making animals apart of my daily routine!

“Banafshe went above and beyond with George. He had some last minute medical issue which required some extra care (pills and a daily paw wash) and Banafshe was willing to attend to them and give George the extra love he needed. She is fantastic and you can tell how much she loves our 🐶!!”

“I felt completely at ease leaving Maaska for her overnight stay—I truly didn’t have to worry at all because I knew she was in such good hands. I’m so grateful for the care she received. She got to enjoy being in a home with a yard and even play with other dogs, which made the experience extra special. Honestly, it felt like the best sleepover of her life! I would absolutely leave her again and highly recommend her care.”
“Ellie and her family spoiled our dog Jager. He enjoyed a great deal of walks and playing. They even offered him a bigger and more supportive bed than the one I brought over. We will see if Ellie and her family are available to dogsit Jager again the next time we go out-of-town.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and now share my home with a sweet, calm Golden Retriever who loves making new friends. She enjoys cozy naps, gentle play, and relaxed companionship with other dogs. I work from home, so your pup will have attentive company throughout the day. They can enjoy supervised time in my secure fenced backyard, along with potty breaks, affection, gentle play, and plenty of restful downtime indoors. I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible and send photo updates so you can see they are safe, comfortable, and enjoying their day. My home is best suited to calm dogs with low to medium energy who enjoy a quieter pace. I want every pup, including my own, to feel relaxed and comfortable, so I’m a particularly good fit for dogs who like gentle play, cozy naps, and a peaceful day with caring company. I work from home full time, so your dog will have attentive company throughout the day. My calm Golden Retriever, Gigi, enjoys gentle play, cozy naps, and spending time with other easygoing dogs. Your dog will stay in a calm, comfortable home with access to a secure fenced backyard with artificial turf. I keep the home cool and will be home throughout their stay to supervise, provide care, and make sure they feel settled. I host only one visiting dog at a time, in addition to Gigi, so each guest gets individual attention. This is a great fit for calm dogs with low to medium energy who enjoy gentle companionship.
“Thank you for taking such great care of Kuma! He looked very happy and well cared for during his stay. I really appreciated the updates and communication. Would absolutely book again!”

“This is the first time I've used Gina for my dog and she made him feel comfortable and cared for during his overnight stay. He liked playing with her sweet dog too! I have already booked another daytime sitting with them. Yay!”
“Pili was really great! From taking great care of our dogs, to being flexible with timing, to communicating and sending tons of pictures, everything was awesome. I would highly recommend Pili if you ever need someone to watch your pups!”
“Anu has checked in on my dog multiple times to feed him and take him on walks. She is always very detailed in her updates on how he is doing and he loves her visits! I had a last minute change and needed someone to watch my dog for two nights. She didn’t hesitate to take him into her home and took such great care of him. She sent updates and photos of long walks they went on and how he was getting along. My dog can be very anxious in certain situations, but he was so comfortable with her and at her home! Will definitely be booking again.”
About: Hi! I’m Julie, a lifelong dog lover who understands that pets are family. I’ve cared for my own dogs and know how important it is to keep them happy, safe, and on their normal routine. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or relaxing together, I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention and affection. I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your dog with someone else, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pup feels comfortable and loved. I currently work full time but with a hybrid schedule and open weekends. I am pretty free when I work from home to walk every hour if need be. I have a fenced yard and whole house so there is no need to worry about other neighbors or outside dogs. They will be safe with their own boundary!
