“Kaylee is the absolute best!! She cares for our puppy weekly but had him for a very long weekend and provided some many great updates and even when our guy was anxious - she was so attentive!!! The best of the best.”


“Ewa doesn’t disappoint! Olive loved her stay and feels so at home with Ewa. She loves the big fenced yard and all the attention and playtime, and I love getting all the updates, photos and videos. Ewa was flexible in allowing me to extend Olive’s stay as I was recovering from surgery. I really appreciated that. I’m so blessed and thankful to have such a wonderful environment and sitter for Olive!”

“We booked it last moment and were very lucky to find Maricela. Our little yorkie was in good hands, we received updates regularly and will for sure reach out to her when needed again.”

“Kent welcomed our little girl into his home once again and took great care of her. She felt right at home and was very comfortable. Our dog is older and has some higher needs but Kent managed them very easily, and he even sent a few pictures and notes to check in with us throughout the stay. Kent was also very responsive, flexible and easy to work with regarding drop off and pickup times. I accidentally miscommunicated my pickup time on our way back from our trip, and when I realized the error and messaged Kent he was quick to adapt to accommodate us. We very much appreciate how kind Kent is and look forward to our little one staying with him again.”
“Marie was awesome and I will definitely ask her to watch my dog again. My dog is not really friendly to other strangers but he immediately accepted Marie at first sight, so I was very surprised. She sent me pictures of my dog everyday and had great communication.”

“Eileen took care of our pup for a week and she gave her the best care! Bianca had tons of fun and got lots of play time in with other pups. I’d highly recommend Eileen.”

“Couldn't have gotten a more reliable and perfect sitter for my doggo than D'Artagnan! I'm extremely happy he was able to accommodate me when I needed someone urgently, but wanted to make sure that my dog would be taken care of. Thank you D'Artagnan!!”

“I highly recommend Olga for her pet sitting services. She took amazing care of our dog, Zoey. She played with her and took Zoey on a lot of walks (which she loves). Her communication was great- she sent daily video and photo updates which gave us peace of mind… Zoey looked like she was having the best time. We can’t wait to have Olga watch Zoey again!”

“Jack had another great stay with Brian. We can tell from photos how much Jack loves being in Brian's backyard. Thanks for taking great care of Jack and giving him plenty of outdoor time!”

“Maria is such an excellent sitter ! My dog Zion loves to go to her house, and I feel so comfortable leaving him with her ! Highly recommend booking with Maria !”

“Their house was very clean and so was their super large back yard. Both their dogs are super friendly and we felt super safe to leave our dog in their house. The best part is they keep sending us pics of him. We would leave him with Mark and Julie again in the future :)”

“Gracie had a wonderful time. She was very, very well taken care of. I had pictures at least twice a day that made me feel that she was so safe. She seemed happy and having a very good time and very comfortable. I will not hesitate to use Susan again if I need Gracie to be watched, they’re very nice people. I feel that I have also made new friends for life.”

“Doug and Deb were great with Regina over the long weekend. They were communicative and understanding of some of her more unique needs. Regina was very calm when picked up and clearly was pretty relaxed during her stay. We felt fully relaxed as well. Look forward to booking again!”

“Lauren was an exceptional provider of boarding for our 10-year-old dog who has separation anxiety and hasn’t had much experience staying with other people. We had a short meet-and-greet to make sure our dogs seemed compatible, and then I was very comfortable leaving Lou with her. She put me at ease with a picture right away and throughout his stay. It was easy to communicate with her about things that were happening or that she had questions about. I would definitely trust Lauren again for boarding and other services.”


“Stephanie and her husband were wonderful! We were away for a few days, and Kona was so well taken care of. Stephanie sent us lots of updates, pictures, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Kona also had a great time playing with their dog, Leon, and they even took her to the farmers market! We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would absolutely recommend Stephanie. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Eliza was great. Our dog is a senior and requires some extra attention. Eliza was great with her and sent us pics and texts to keep us in the loop on how she was doing.”

“We have had Ashley sit for our senior cat a number of times now and we absolutely love her. She is incredibly dependable and understands our quirky cat very well. He is super shy and doesn’t allow her to see him often, but she still finds ways to engage with him, like creating treat scavenger hunts which he LOVES. It’s a comfort to us when we’re away knowing he’s in her care. She is his magical treat fairy.”


“I had a wonderful experience with Melanie! She took excellent care of my cat and carefully followed all my instructions. Communication was easy and she also updates with photos everyday. I highly recommend Melanie!”


“Mya is so kind, gentle, and patient with my senior cat, who has been having up and down health issues lately. She pays attention to the detailed instructions given for each visit and also takes initiative when problem solving on the spot. Prince and I are very grateful and appreciative of her!”


“Evelyn is a god send! She was FABULOUS with our pets. We have a sassy cat and two buns who absolutely loved her! She was prompt on timing and followed all of the directions we had. She met with us before our vacation to meet our furry friends and pick up keys. She sent hilarious updates and pictures. We never had a worry with Evelyn watching our pets. 10 out 10 would book her again.”


“Ellie was amazing! She truly cared about Luna's wellbeing while I was out of town. She took away my worries and gave me updates on her visits with Luna. Will definitely trust her with my fur baby again.”


“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Cat Sitter – Punctual, Responsible, and Caring I cannot recommend Mariela enough! She is incredibly punctual, responsible, and attentive to my cat, Simba. From the moment I hired her, she was highly responsive and kept me updated, which made my vacation completely stress-free. Not only did she take excellent care of Simba—who absolutely adores her and thrives under her care—but she also went above and beyond by taking out trash. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail truly set her apart. Thanks to her, I could enjoy my trip knowing Simba was in the best hands. In fact, I’m already looking forward to my next vacation because I know she’ll take care of everything perfectly! If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy cat sitter, look no further. Simba and I are so grateful for her outstanding service, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!”


“Scott has taken care of my cat twice now and does an excellent job. He feeds and spends time with Quinn and administers her insulin shots since she is diabetic. We are so thankful he takes such good care of our girl!”

“Kelly cared for gema her first time away from home and messaged me with updates what felt like atleast once a day, which was wholesome. I thank this company for making it possible!”


“Brianna took care of my cats while my fiancée and I were out of town. It’s a bit difficult to find sitters that can administer oral medicine to cats, and Brianna was able to meet the task, give love to my 2 cats and make sure their area was well kept. She responds quickly to texts as well. If you need a cat sitter, I would recommend her to any client!”


“Kristina was wonderful at taking care of Saga. She was kind, caring and loving. She was great at following directions related to her medication and food. Also, she was prompted answering all my questions. I appreciate your help and support when I was away from home. Thank you.”


“Nicholas was an amazing cat sitter from start to finish. We were out of the country for a week and he stopped by right on time, provided multiple photos and a detailed update of everything completed in each visit. He went above and beyond in watching after our 2 elderly cats and was flexible with us incase our flight was delayed. We feel very comfortable booking him for our next trip. If we didn’t work from home, I would definitely be booking him to take care of our dog. Would recommend him!!!”


“Skyler was watching my house when we had really bad storms here in July. She did a great job dealing with everything going on. There was no power and a window blew in. She looked for Wren right away and once she found her she went upstairs and fixed the window. It's great to have a sitter that was able to handle all of this. Though it was not an ideal situation she did fantastic and it made me feel that I can comfortably leave on trips and know that Skyler can manage multiple situations as they arise!”

About: I am a seasoned kitty care taker and have two beautiful cats of my own. Fiona is a 14 year old torty and Noodle is a 13 year old orange cat. I have experience taking care of all different breeds of cat including care for Maine Coon and Bengals. I am happy to do anything your cat needs during drop in visits. Does your kitty like to play? Do they like to sit on someone's lap? Or do they just need fresh water and a litter scoop? I'll be there to help! I am also comfortable administering medication and light grooming for long haired or hairless cats. I would love to take care of your family member and am open to any questions about my services and skills!

About: Most of my experience comes from growing up with my own household’s cat. Many of my friends and family have cats as well; my brother and his mom have a cat and travel all the time, so I often do home visits for them. I’ve also done work trades on farms that had cats I spent much time with. I love cats and think they’re such special animals. Whether they’re a cuddle-bug or more of a spy who likes personal space, it’d be a pleasure to help care for yours!

“Maricela took care of Toby for 4 days and she was great! Toby was very happy and excited to greet Maricela every morning. Maricela took Toby for a walk every day and she sent some great pictures too. Thank you for taking good care of Toby. I would recommend Maricela for good, home care.”


“Dave was awesome with our Coco. As soon as we meet Dave we knew Coco would be in good hands. He has great communication and send pictures throughout his stay. Coco came home super tired. That was a good sign that he had a fun day with Dave. We will be repeating with Dave for daycare and boarding needs. Thanks Dave.”

“Naomi & Johann J. will always be our 1st choice to watch Javy whenever we need to leave him with anyone. They sent many photos and reassuring messages about Javy’s eating all of his food…he wouldn’t have eaten anything, had he been stressed about being there. Wonderful pup watchers!”

“Bob, so thankful for your attentiveness, kindness, and care to our puppies. I appreciate your flexibility and always going the extra mile. So glad you were there for us on our expected and unexpected trips to Illinois!”

“Erena is very friendly and personable with dogs. She was able to make our dog Leia feel comfortable in her surroundings and provided timely communication/updates. Overall, Leia had a great stay. We would highly recommend Erena.”

“Deborah is a true dog lover. Arthur was instantly comfortable with her and doesn't even see us leave! I am completely at ease whenever we leave him in her care. Thank you Deborah!!”

“Great communication and pictures throughout my pups stay! I felt so comfortable with her and know my pup was in the best hands. Thank you for taking amazing care of my pup!”

“Danielle was so flexible, responsive and accommodating to my changing plans. And most importantly, my Ava had an absolute blast! Such a comforting feeling to know she’s being so well taken care of. Will definitely rebook. Thanks again!”

“We could not ask for a better first experience. Tanya took excellent care of our new puppy. From potty breaks to play times she was there with him sending updates and pics. We were able to enjoy our night knowing he was in good hands. Thanks again.”

“Justine and Brett were fantastic! By the time I picked up my little pup, he was all tired out from all the attention and playtime they had with him. So grateful to them for watching my pet!”

“I am so blessed to have found her not far from home to watch over my 13 months old high energy puppy. After the first dog sitter he came to crash in his crate. He had no energy to not even jump. As first time dog owner- I have no idea what I’m doing but Jackie sure is a dog whisperer.”

“As a first-time dog daycare user, I was filled with worry, but Thea went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. I'm confident that it was a wonderful experience for my dog, Chester, as well. It's hard to put into words how touching the experience was. I am so grateful to Thea, and I have no doubt about her love for dogs. As long as she's available, I will continue to entrust her with Chester.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Michelle! She took such great care of our Mini Aussie. Michelle was incredibly communicative throughout the day, sent plenty of photos and updates, and made us feel completely at ease. It was obvious that she is experienced, caring, and truly loves dogs. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking with Michelle again. Highly recommend!”

“Allis and her family were great with my doodle who has separation anxiety. My dog gets so excited when she sees Allis at drop off and she settles quickly at her house. Great communication and updates with photos and videos of my girl.”

“Cathy is an outstanding dog walker! Our rambunctios 2yo lab loved her daily walks, and Cathy even worked with our nervous Border Collie to build up her confidence. Cathy is absolutely reliable, and we highly recommend her!”

About: I am a dog owner for the past 8 years and own two Setter pups. Friends have entrusted me with their dogs for petsitting and dog walking - in some occasions I would have as many as 4 dogs with me, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! As a dog parent I know how important is to have someone you trust with your baby, I will treat your dog as my own, making sure your dog is safe and happy! My work schedule varies week by week between office and home, which allows me some flexibility. When in the area, I am flexible to go on a walk with your pup to get some fresh air or do a drop in visit to spend some time with them. When I drop in to check on your pup or take on a walk, I will always follow your instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. During walks, I will keep a close eye on them, always be on leash, and make sure they get the right amount of exercise based on their energy level. Afterward, provide a quick pupdate so you know your pup is happy and well taken care of.
“Maricela P. was just amazing with our Winston! He can be a handful at times just because he gets very excited to meet new people but Maricela handled him with the same care and affection as we do. She was the best with Winston and we are very grateful for finding her!”

“Leah is the best! She goes above and beyond for scooby and genuinely can tell she loves animals. She takes him on great walks and adores her from all the photos I see! 💖”

“Mariela has been my five-day a week walker for my two Labradors for the past two months. She has shown great care with my dogs. Having a senior dog and a puppy is a challenge, but Mariela recognizes their individual needs and is very patient with both of them. I’m glad to have someone I can trust taking care of my pups each day!”

“Carly is amazing! Our dogs Cooper and Mateo love her. She is friendly, easy going, excellent communicator and kind. I’ve had a difficult time navigating the app and she’s been so patient and helpful. During the meet and greet we were able to share specifics about what we are looking for and she has met all of our pups needs. I have rebooked her and will continue to rebook with Carly! You have been a life saver Carly! Thank you!”

“I'll definitely book Jackie again. It's hard to leave your pup in the hands of someone you just met, but Jackie made us feel that Cooper was in good hands. We appreciated her consideration and care with him.”


“Cameron has been a pleasure to work with. She's very friendly, communicative, punctual, and accommodating. Best part of all, she lives close by. We'll definitely be booking with her again. Thanks, Cameron!”

“So highly recommend Nick for your dog walking / care needs . Nick constantly kept up with our ever growing/changing dog. We can’t say enough about the care and time that Nick had for him.”


About: I grew up around many dogs. My parents LOVE English Bulldogs and we always had 2-3 in our home whether we were fostering or they were ours. A few years ago we found a cat in the woods and decided to add to the family! After moving out, I have decided to rescue two cats of my own and they have been such a blessing! I also watch my friends dogs and cats from time to time. I am currently studying to be a personal trainer and work at a gym opening a women’s fitness program. My schedule is pretty open currently as I am studying for my personal trainers certificate! I am also a bodybuilder so my life really revolves around the gym! My schedule is currently very flexible. I currently have two cats, and I play with them often. They have many toys and cat trees. I would consider myself very playful. I also love to walk dogs! My bulldogs at home love walks 1-2 times a day which I have been able to help out with when there. I hope to offer similar services!
“I cannot say enough nice things about Natalie! I booked her last minute when the regular walker couldn’t make it, like less than an hour and a half. Not only did she reply right away, but she basically headed straight there. She was incredibly patient with Caesar who can sometimes be reluctant to go on his walks with new people. I booked her for an hour walk, but she went over that time to allow him to get comfortable with her before walking him. She communicated throughout the whole session and made me feel less anxious. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Natalie. I will definitely book her again and you should too.”

“Their house was very clean and so was their super large back yard. Both their dogs are super friendly and we felt super safe to leave our dog in their house. The best part is they keep sending us pics of him. We would leave him with Mark and Julie again in the future :)”

“Gracie had a wonderful time. She was very, very well taken care of. I had pictures at least twice a day that made me feel that she was so safe. She seemed happy and having a very good time and very comfortable. I will not hesitate to use Susan again if I need Gracie to be watched, they’re very nice people. I feel that I have also made new friends for life.”


“Jasmine was amazing from the initial booking to the drop off & ALL throughout the 1st visit for my lil guy. The daily update with beautiful & happy photos were definitely a true testament to her quality of care, concern, & love displayed for my dog. I’ve already booked several more boarding stays to ensure confirmation! Thank you Jasmine for all that you for our lil B.!!”

“Lauren was an exceptional provider of boarding for our 10-year-old dog who has separation anxiety and hasn’t had much experience staying with other people. We had a short meet-and-greet to make sure our dogs seemed compatible, and then I was very comfortable leaving Lou with her. She put me at ease with a picture right away and throughout his stay. It was easy to communicate with her about things that were happening or that she had questions about. I would definitely trust Lauren again for boarding and other services.”


“Stephanie and her husband were wonderful! We were away for a few days, and Kona was so well taken care of.

“Penny looked after Ginger as a trial night before we go on a longer trip this summer. I could tell Ginger had a blast and Penny is very caring with the dogs. I’m not concerned with leaving my pup with Penny when I have to be gone this summer. Thank you Penny and Ginger and I will see you again soon!”

“This was our first time using Rover and Liz was great! Bella was a little anxious at first, especially staying in someone else’s house, and Liz was very communicative about that concern. We got photo and video updates every day of the stay and appreciated the quick responses when we asked for updates. We don’t travel often, so it really put us at ease seeing Bella’s happy face running in the yard and knowing she was taken care of!”

“Yamile is super nice and you can tell she likes pets. She took good care of my dog and cat. I also appreciated that her dog was very chill, even around my cat (they barely acknowledged each other!). Would book with her again.”

“Sarah was absolutely amazing! She sent regular updates and even taught my puppy how to use the stairs. She has an awesome backyard and cozy home for pets to enjoy and lots of experience, she even has a vet background the moment she held my puppy she knew he had a hernia which I did not even know until a vet told me and I did not inform her she was smart enough to notice on her own.”

“Kyle and his family were great with our dogs!! We were nervous to leave them while we were away because of previous bad kennel experience, but Kyle was great. Another worry that we had was that one of our dogs takes medication daily, but he gave it to her with no problems! He has a great fenced backyard for the pups to run around, he took them for walks, played with them, sent lots of pics and videos, and showed them lots of love. Our dogs really enjoyed their stay. If you’re in the area we would 100% recommend Kyle!”
