“Brittany is amazing. She literally will treat your pet like her own and spoils them like they should be ❤️ I know my husky loves staying with her and she is my go to person! He even got a toy for Christmas. He gets so much exercise and love. Thank you Brittany!”
“Suzanne's family really embraced our pup as one of their own pack 🙂 Pictures and updates were great and put us at ease. Our pup came home happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica is amazing, even when I got my drop off and pickup dates wrong she met my needs and had no problem with either. My dog came back happy, tired, smelling good. She also sent me pictures of him playing every day, which was nice to see he was having a good time. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“I left my Baby (Mr. Prince) with Ms. Geneva and will plan to have her sit for us again. She was courteous and polite. She kept me updated on how he was doing as well as sent pictures. This really eased my mind without me even asking her to. I met her the day before and felt comfortable. I highly recommend her for sitting and as I stated earlier, I plan to utilize her services again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up, my mother was (and still is) a doggy foster mom for our local shelter. We constantly had 4-6 dogs in our home, most of which ended up staying long term. I have years of experience caring for multiple dogs and senior care as well! I work completely from home which will allow me plenty of time to attend to your pups needs all throughout the day. I love to jog and hike, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of exercise and outdoor time with me! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. Working from home allows plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs will always be kept safely leashed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.”

“Elizabeth took great care of my dog Hazel and sent a lot of pictures and updates. She also took her on nice walks and Hazel had plenty of outside time. She administered Hazel's medication each day as well. Overall, Elizabeth did a great job with my dog.”
“This was my German shepherd, Evie's, first overnight stay with Laura, or anyone else for that matter. I was hoping it would go well and happily Evie had a great time running about and playing with three other dogs. Good to know I have a safe place to drop Evie off when I'm away.”
“My girls took to Dani immediately. She checked their bags & instructions right away & immediately contacted me to let me know one dogs meds wete missing & offered a solution that worked. She sent lots of photos showing us they were playing, napping & eating on time. We are visiting family 1200+ miles from home . It was a relief to find Dani to take care of our girls fir overnight. We highly recommend Dani.”

I look forward to connecting with Stephen again in the future!! Thanks for doing such an excellent job; keep it up!!”

“Nikki was an absolute angel with my two cats when I had to leave for the weekend at the last minute. I contacted her late Thursday night and she was here bonding with my cats at 12pm the next day! She sent me probably 15 pictures over the two days of them hanging out and snuggling which I SO appreciated. There could not have been a kinder or better pet sitter to ask for :)”
“I can’t be more delighted to have Serena care for my girls. When I met up with Serena, she had a kind, soft demeanor with excellent communication skills.

I am so appreciative of Serena and will ask for her to come back again.”

About: I have taken care of many different kinds of dogs and cats my whole life. In my neighborhood I am the trusted pet sitter and pet walker! I currently am a student I only have 2 classes a day so I will have plenty of time to take care of your animals. I always follow the ground rules set by the owners. I do my best to make sure the pets do not get into anything that could cause them harm.
“Kayla was amazing with my dog! Each time I picked him up, he was happy, and clearly well cared for. She took amazing care of my pet even though he has a broken leg and has restrictions. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Her services are absolutely worth every penny.”

About: I’ve had all kinds of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and some friendly neighborhood chickens. I love them all! I’ve been walking dogs since I was a freshman in high school and I don’t think i’ll ever get tired of it! I have a very flexible schedule since I only have a part time job, and I take quite a bit of work from this app :) I love taking walks, so I provide anywhere from two to four potty breaks or trips outside throughout the day. I also enjoy hiking and I like to bring pups with a bit more energy to tag along. I’m more than happy to stay in your home with your pets if discussed and my main concern is that your pets are happy, safe, and just like you left them.
About: COVID19 & my services: Special precautions I am taking **Upon Request by you** - wearing gloves, spraying items I’ve touched with my Lysol before leaving (such as door knobs), wearing a face mask. Social distancing during your free meet and greet. Free Video call meet and greets upon request. Please continue reading for more info about me and my pet sitting services below! Thank you and be well. I love dogs and cats! My love for animals started early in life, growing up always having pets and even making some of my first few bucks dog walking for neighbor’s dogs. I come from a family of care-takers, nurses and teachers, so naturally, I love taking care of people and what better way to do that than ensure their pets are cared for, too! I will make sure your precious doggies and pets are loved and taken care of just like it was my own dog or pet. There’s nothing like the peace of mind, knowing your beloved fur-baby is getting the attention, food, water, bathroom breaks, belly rubs, butt scratches, and exercise he or she deserves while you’re away or at work. I’ll be sure to give your dog and/or cats lots of love! One of my proudest memories is when my dog graduated “Puppy Manors Class”. I am happy to know what you’d like to work on with your dog in terms of behavior and training, and help in any way I can - or, follow any commands and training strategies you already have in place. Cesar Millan is one of my favorite dog trainers, for the way he is able to understand dogs and speak their language. Something interesting I’ve learned from him is that dogs actually DO have a sense of time, “Your dog does have a sense of time — and misses you when you’re gone. If you think your dog knows when it’s time for dinner or a walk, you’re right! Dogs pick up on our routines and habits, and they also sense how much time has passed. One study showed how dogs responded differently to their owners being gone for different lengths of time.” I understand the value and importance of a reliable pet care taker - our animals depend on us and miss us just like humans do with their friends and family, that’s why I know how important having a reliable and loving pet sitter is. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile, I’ll be looking forward to hearing from you! Please message me first for your free meet and greet. Thank you!
“We were in town visiting from Virginia and needed to find someone to watch our baby Jax for a day. So glad we found Elisa! She was very responsive to our request and was able to accommodate our change in pick up time. I can tell her and her family treated Jax like one of their own because he adapted so quickly! And I can tell he had a lot of fun because he instantly went to sleep. We’ll definitely book Elisa again if we need another sitter when we’re back in town!”

“Albert and Amanda are just amazing. Miss Nova had a blast visiting for the day and they helped introduce her and socialize with the other dogs. I felt so comfortable leaving her and so proud when we received pictures/video of her playing. This short visit was in preparation for a longer stay down the road and I couldn't have been happier with the experience and all the communication to plan for the stay. I would highly recommend Albert and Amanda as they are extremely knowledgeable. They are not only dog sitters but trainers who are willing to educate.”

“Rachel is absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend her services! After our initial meeting and introduction, I knew she was the perfect person to watch my new puppy Scout! She's so sweet and caring, and is such an animal lover! After it went so well with the drop-in's and seeing how much Scout loved her, we sent him to Rachel's Doggy Daycare. He absolutely loves her sweet dog (no pun intended!) Sugar, and got lots of playtime and walks at daycare. Rachel kept me up to date with how Scout was doing during the day and made sure to send lots of photos and videos :) I am so happy we found Rachel and will continue using her services for our puppy!”

About: I’ve always been around animals since I was very young we had ; chickens , Gerbils , Hamsters , Guinea pigs , dogs , cats , as well as taking care of my neighbors big fat orange cat when they needed to get away. I have a dog and a cat at home so I’m no stranger to that Fur parent life ! I have a dog myself so getting outside for a walk is a daily part of my routine ! I also work a lot of nights so I’m looking for things to do , reasons to be outside during the day and making money while doing it is just a really big plus ! Safety : being always attentive to surroundings as far as where the dogs are walking , what’s on the ground , what areas am I walking in , dogs around other dogs , Trust : I would try to update the dog owner as often as possible being a dog father myself I would be comforted getting those updates just too know my pet is safe and sound Environment : open feild trails , deep forest trials , shoreline trails , lakeside trails

“Brittany is amazing. She literally will treat your pet like her own and spoils them like they should be ❤️ I know my husky loves staying with her and she is my go to person! He even got a toy for Christmas. He gets so much exercise and love. Thank you Brittany!”
“Suzanne's family really embraced our pup as one of their own pack 🙂 Pictures and updates were great and put us at ease. Our pup came home happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica is amazing, even when I got my drop off and pickup dates wrong she met my needs and had no problem with either. My dog came back happy, tired, smelling good. She also sent me pictures of him playing every day, which was nice to see he was having a good time. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“I left my Baby (Mr. Prince) with Ms. Geneva and will plan to have her sit for us again. She was courteous and polite. She kept me updated on how he was doing as well as sent pictures. This really eased my mind without me even asking her to. I met her the day before and felt comfortable. I highly recommend her for sitting and as I stated earlier, I plan to utilize her services again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up, my mother was (and still is) a doggy foster mom for our local shelter. We constantly had 4-6 dogs in our home, most of which ended up staying long term. I have years of experience caring for multiple dogs and senior care as well! I work completely from home which will allow me plenty of time to attend to your pups needs all throughout the day. I love to jog and hike, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of exercise and outdoor time with me! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. Working from home allows plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs will always be kept safely leashed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.”
“Kristin took great care of Murphy while I was out of town. Murph is a very anxious pup and she made sure he was as comfortable and at ease as possible! She sent me regular updates and pictures and made sure he felt at home.”
“Elizabeth took great care of my dog Hazel and sent a lot of pictures and updates. She also took her on nice walks and Hazel had plenty of outside time. She administered Hazel's medication each day as well. Overall, Elizabeth did a great job with my dog.”
“This was my German shepherd, Evie's, first overnight stay with Laura, or anyone else for that matter. I was hoping it would go well and happily Evie had a great time running about and playing with three other dogs. Good to know I have a safe place to drop Evie off when I'm away.”
“My girls took to Dani immediately. She checked their bags & instructions right away & immediately contacted me to let me know one dogs meds wete missing & offered a solution that worked. She sent lots of photos showing us they were playing, napping & eating on time. We are visiting family 1200+ miles from home . It was a relief to find Dani to take care of our girls fir overnight. We highly recommend Dani.”
“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”

When we arrived to pick him up, he was calm and joyful. During Snowy's visit, Stephen sent us pictures of Snowy having fun, which was wonderful. I look forward to connecting with Stephen again in the future!! Thanks for doing such an excellent job; keep it up!!”
“Our pup was in great care with Elisa and her family for a week while my family and I traveled. Elisa provided updates showcasing our pet’s happiness, comfort, and playfulness in her home. After sharing that our dog has congenital knee issues, Rob, her partner, even installed another step on their dog ramp for our dog to climb up comfortably. We hope to rebook with Elisa again when needed!”
