“Erin was fantastic with my dog, Max, this weekend! She provided daily updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Max was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout his stay. Erin was reliable, communicative, and treated Max like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter, and I would definitely book with her again.”

“Highly recommend Daniella! She took such amazing care of my dog, Murphy, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving him with her. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and thoughtful messages, which I really appreciated. You can tell she genuinely cares and treats the dogs like her own. Murphy had such a great time and came home so happy. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾💗”
“Leslie did a great job with my Marley. Marley is a very anxious dog and he had a blast with Leslie. I will leave for my work trip in a couple weeks knowing that he is in good hands and being well cared for! 🤍”
“Pat went above and beyond to care for our senior pup who is prone to some anxiety. She took care of our dog as if she were her own. She provided lots of updates and pictures and we knew that our girl was in very good hands. Pat has a nice, big and fenced-in backyard which we know our dog enjoyed exploring. Communication was quick and easy from the meet and greet through the entire visit. We’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Sylvie was the best! We have a high energy puppy and she handled her with no complaints. It was clear Millie was having a blast every day in her yard and pool which made us feel even better being away. We even had a cancelled flight so had to extend her stay a night and it was no problem. Thank you Sylvie!”
“La Toya was very supportive with me as I’ve never been away from my little one for so long. She reassured me and kept me sane by sending pics and videos. I would totally recommend her and will be using her services in the future.”
“Clarissa was so amazing with rotini! She went above and beyond to make sure he was eating well and having a great time. Her dog, Rue, was the perfect playmate for my dog. Would rebook with her anytime!”
“Fanny is an excellent person and dog sitter, very dedicated. She sent us a daily photo and message with updates about Max. They went on many walks and our cocker spaniel was so happy to be with her. I 100% recommend her, great area and very affordable! Thank you so much Fanny!”
“Renae was great! Our dog is a 6 month old puppy. We got him weeks before we hired Renae and were very worried about how he was going to do and if he was going to be okay. Renae went above and beyond the call. She took him to parks and the beach and kept him busy the whole weekend. She sent daily updates (sometimes even twice daily) that included pictures of him enjoying himself. We are first time dog owners and she did a great job of relieving the stress of leaving a dog so young with a stranger. She even gave us a few pointers that she's picked up on in her time with dogs. She's a true professional and I'm very impressed with the quality of care we received.”
“Lucero actually watched my bearded dragon through Rover. She took excellent care of him. I received videos and pictures daily. He was very spoiled in her care. Would definitely use Lucero again!”
“We couldn't be happier with Kim taking care of our little one. We loved the communication and photo's throughout her stay. She came home happy and healthy, and we were extremely comfortable that Kim was prepared for all things "dogs". She has a great strengthen in training, and we are already scheduling her again before someone else does for our next trip!”
“We are very pleased with Beatrice’s experience and caring for our 13 year old Cairn terrier Poodle mix that stayed with her for a week! That is the longest he has stayed away from us and he was in great shape when we picked him up. He was very well taken care of, and we received daily reports from her that were very reassuring. It was like a home away from home. We definitely plan to have him stay where whenever needed in the future! Thank you Beatrice!”

“We are so grateful to have found Estefania! We’ve used her services 2 times now, and every single experience has been fantastic. Our dog absolutely adores her and her family, it’s clear how much love and care they give. Communication is always excellent, with updates and photos that give us complete peace of mind while we’re away. They treat our pup like family, and we can tell our dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing we have someone so trustworthy and reliable to count on. Highly recommend - we’ll definitely continue to be repeat customers!”
“Enas and her daughters took great care of Rusti. She is very much Mamma’s girl and doesn’t do well when I’m away but she did great with Enas. I will definitely look to use Enas’ boarding again.”
“Sim stepped in on short notice after an initial dog sitter arrangement fell through, providing immediate help during a stressful situation. Sim and his family welcomed our puppy as one of their own, ensuring he felt comfortable and at home. It was so nice to get regular updates, including pictures and videos, throughout the stay. This frequent communication allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation without worry. Sim is a highly dependable and caring dog sitter, ideal for pet owners seeking reliable, communicative, and compassionate care for their dogs.”
“Melvin enjoyed his time with Marisol. She kept me up to date with texts and photos. She also purchased optional food when Melvin wasn’t eating his regular food which had never happened before. I’ll use her services again in the future.”

“Emily was so great with our recently adopted cat when we were away - he is shy, but she got him out of his shell and gave us a wonderfully detailed description of her visit and some fun pictures to set our mind at rest. She is super responsive to all our messages and we will absolutely be asking her to watch him again. Highly recommended!”
“Kisha was an awesome sitter for my two cats. From her pictures, I saw they got plenty of playtime and love. She also went above and beyond taking care of the house. She definitely will be a go-to sitter for us!”

“Claire was great at communicating during our meet and greet and in our texts leading up to her visit. From her photos while she cat sit for my two cats, they were well fed and got plenty of play. Everything was in great order when I came home, and Claire is someone I will definitely try to use again.”
“The moment I met Amanda I could tell it was a great fit for our puppy as she was kind and calm mannered. We just got our puppy a week ago and she came to drop in on our girl 2 times a day. She always provides me with pictures and detailed reports of her visits with Noa. I highly recommend her and will definitely be working with Amanda again and look forward to her visits!”

“Elyse did a great job watching our cat while we were gone for a week. She was very organized and communicative, and sent plenty of pictures each day that she stopped by. She also gave Cid plenty of attention and was easy to work with”
“From the first time we met Clarissa we could tell she would be a good match for our cat Lacy. Lacy is shy and comes from a rough background. Clarissa communicated every day (twice) and sent photos showing the progress she was making with Lacy. We will recommend her to our friends and look forward to requesting her again in the future. She our trip worry free!”
About: I’ve had my cat, Kalel, for 10 years, and raising her has given me a deep respect for just how intuitive, independent, and nuanced cats are. I truly love all kinds of feline personalities — from social lap cats to shy observers and the “strictly tolerate humans” types. Many people say they’re intimidated by cats, but I’ve found that it’s rarely about the cat — it’s about understanding them. Cats don’t try to appease us the way dogs do, and I see that as something to admire, not fear. I’m calm, patient, and very attentive to subtle body language and boundaries. I let each cat set the pace and focus on building trust through consistency and respect. There’s no better compliment than when a cat chooses to sit nearby, accept a scratch, or simply relax in your presence. Whether your cat is affectionate, cautious, quirky, or independent, I know how to create an environment where they feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for.
About: I've had the privilege of caring for pets since I was 10 years old. I've helped my parents train (through training classes and at home), walk, feed, bathe and enrich both of our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel pups for the last 15 years. I also had the opportunity to take care of my roommate's two gorgeous cats in college. In October 2023, I rescued my own kitty that I care for night and day. When I’m not lounging with Zilla, I like to spend time with my friends and family, try new restaurants with my boyfriend, exercise, and jam out to music in my car. I've done many overnight stays at friends’ and family members’ homes while pet sitting, and I encourage you to browse my testimonials to learn more about how passionate I am about nurturing animals. I have experience with: - puppies/kittens - adult dogs/cats - dogs of all sizes I also work full-time at a marketing agency focused exclusively on the pet industry, so I've learned an immense amount of information about pet health, pet care, pet safety and breed-specific behaviors/characteristics. My current job is remote 4/5 days a week, so I'm able to be present at your home almost whenever you need. I look forward to becoming your local, trusted pet sitter! As mentioned, my current job is remote 4/5 days a week, so I'm able to be present at your home almost whenever you need. Monday evenings and Tuesday's are the only times I'm usually unavailable. Feel free to message me to discuss my availability as needed - I can be flexible! I'm happy to stay overnight at your home to make your pet(s) feel more comfortable. You know your pet best, so I'll make sure to follow the instructions you give me and make the experience as stress-free as I possibly can for your pet(s). I'll make sure your pet is on a leash/harness whenever I take them outside (unless you have a backyard that is fenced in, of course), and will avoid interactions with other animals during walks if you have a reactive pet.

About: Hi, my name is Sim! I have hands on experience caring for pets. I raised my own dog for 14 years and have pet-sat for friend’s dogs. Caring for animals is a passion of mine, and I understand how important routines and attention are. Having been both a pet owner and sitter, I understand the importance of following each pet’s routine. I provide attentive care, communicate clearly, and give regular updates to ensure you feel confident your pet is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate focused time to walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to be attentive, responsive, and consistent with each pet’s routine, ensuring they get the care, attention, and companionship they need. I stick closely to each pet’s routine, whether I’m caring for them in my home or theirs. I make sure they’re fed on time, get their walks and playtime, and feel safe and comfortable. I also keep things clean and send updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Brittany and Eric were a life saver. I had a last minute request to meet them and their pup Bogey before needing day care day for my dog Baxter and they made it happen! I was having construction done on my house and they were sooo flexible with times to drop off and pick up during a stressful time. Their dog is amazing and got along perfect with Baxter. They both seemed tired at the end of the day. And they welcomed Baxter into their home with open arms right away. Right when I met them they welcomed me to come into their home and allowed me to take my dog off his leash to wonder and explore their home. They also let both dogs get to know each other in their back yard. It was a perfect meet and greet and perfect care while I was at home busy with construction workers. They also sent pictures throughout the day and made sure I knew Baxter was happy and in good hands. I would recommend them for care for any dog.”

About: Hi! I’m Kimberly, but I go by Kim 😊 I’ve had dogs my whole life — I’m 39 now, so that’s a lot of years loving pups! I’ve cared for everything from tiny 5 lb cuties to big 120+ lb snugglers, and dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve worked on training with my own dogs and am comfortable giving medications when needed. As a foster with a local rescue, I’ve helped anxious, scared, and quirky dogs feel safe and loved. I truly believe every dog is unique, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for like family. I work fully remote, so your pup will get plenty of attention, love, and company throughout the day. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m happy to adjust to what works best for you and your dog. 🏡 I live in a pet-friendly apartment and provide lots of walks, snuggles, and personalized care. I generally keep my bookings limited to ensure each dog gets the attention they need, though I may occasionally take on more during high-demand times like holidays or school breaks. 🏡 ✨ Best fit: dogs that are low to moderate shedders or regularly groomed. I especially love poodles and poodle mixes (doodles)—their energy, intelligence, and personalities are a great match for my home. Smaller low-shedding breeds like schnauzers and shih tzus also do really well here. If your dog is a heavier shedder, feel free to reach out and we can chat. ✨ ⚠️ Safety requirements: 🐾 4–6 ft leash only (no retractables) 🐾 Harness if your dog pulls or is over 40 lbs 🐾 Must be comfortable in a crate when needed 🐾 Must wear a collar with ID tags at all times 🚫 Dogs must have no history of aggression toward other dogs. No toys, bones, or chews from home to help prevent resource guarding or conflicts. 🚫 I maintain a calm, structured, and low-stress environment where dogs can relax and coexist comfortably.

“We are so happy with Ana’s care for our high-energy husky pup! Her prompt response to my check-ins and daily pictures of activities put my mind at ease. She provided just what our dog needed to feel just at home. We will definitely be re-booking with Ana!”

About: I have such a big heart with a passion for animals. I have been surrounded by dogs most of my life. I have had 5 dogs, 1 hedgehog, 1 turtle, and 2 rabbits. In the past I have worked at a veterinary hospital as a veterinary assistant and even at a dog grooming salon. I have cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, from poochons to great pyrenees. I have experience house sitting/dog sitting, and boarding in my own home. I can administer medication, prepare food, and attend to any other needs. Of course I provide lots of walks, play-time, possible massages, and lots of TLC. I will care for your fur babies as if they were my own. <3 Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. My mornings start with dropping my son off at school, after which I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to the pets in my care. I am generally available throughout the week, with limited availability on occasional Saturdays. I am home most evenings and available most weekends. I treat every pet visit as a priority — not something I squeeze in between other obligations. I genuinely enjoy the time I spend with animals, so caring for your pet never feels like a chore. My schedule allows me to give each pet the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Safety and comfort are my top priority for every pet in my care. In a client's home, I follow their routine as closely as possible — same feeding schedule, same sleeping spots, same rules — because consistency helps pets feel calm and secure. I am comfortable administering medication, preparing meals to dietary specifications, and handling any special needs. With my background as a veterinary assistant, I am also equipped to recognize signs of illness or distress and respond appropriately.

“Balbina took my gentle giant over an extended period of time and took him in as if he was her own. Sent daily updates of all activities and even did a stellar job with his medication. 10/10 I would rebook. And I’m sure my dog got all of the attention he could have ever wanted. Thank you!”
“Pennie was so fabulous. I could tell at our initial meet and greet at her home that she loves the pets she cares for and ensures the environment they're staying in suits their needs perfectly. We left our two dogs with her for a week and received pictures daily. She even let our bulldog mix who is afraid of thunder sleep in her room during three days of bad storms. I'm so happy we found Pennie after our previous dog sitter moved out of state.”
“Clarissa was so amazing with rotini! She went above and beyond to make sure he was eating well and having a great time. Her dog, Rue, was the perfect playmate for my dog. Would rebook with her anytime!”
“Renae was great! Our dog is a 6 month old puppy. We got him weeks before we hired Renae and were very worried about how he was going to do and if he was going to be okay. Renae went above and beyond the call. She took him to parks and the beach and kept him busy the whole weekend. She sent daily updates (sometimes even twice daily) that included pictures of him enjoying himself. We are first time dog owners and she did a great job of relieving the stress of leaving a dog so young with a stranger. She even gave us a few pointers that she's picked up on in her time with dogs. She's a true professional and I'm very impressed with the quality of care we received.”
“We couldn't be happier with Kim taking care of our little one. We loved the communication and photo's throughout her stay. She came home happy and healthy, and we were extremely comfortable that Kim was prepared for all things "dogs". She has a great strengthen in training, and we are already scheduling her again before someone else does for our next trip!”
“Brian took care of my 6 month old puppy over Labor Day weekend. He sent pictures of her playing and going on walks. She was allowed to snuggle in bed and make herself at home. I would definitely use him in the future to care for our fur baby. Thank you Brian!”
About: We have both had dogs since we were kids and we absolutely love them. But we currently do not have one and would love to help care for your fur baby. We have a large fenced in yard that will keep your dog safe and allow for lots of exercise. We also love taking walks and playing catch with dogs. Your fur baby will get lots of TLC, snuggles and attention here with 4 people in the house to love on them. We both work from home so your fur baby will never be alone. I work from home full time and so does my husband, so your pup will never be alone and this will allow for plenty of potty breaks too. We also go for daily walks in the neighborhood. We have a fully fenced in yard to make sure your baby will be safe while allowing for lots of activity. I am very aware on walks of other dogs who may potentially not be friendly and cross the street if needed. Your dog can sleep in our room on our carpet or our couches. We treat dogs like a member of our family and fully believe they are not just a “pet” but a best friend.
“The only sitter I’ll ever leave my old boy with again 😍🐾👍 Kathleen is so genuinely warm… I now have an elderly dog with a lot of medication and pain issues and she took superb care of him as if he were her own!!!! I got tons of updates and pictures and I always felt that he was in the best care!! I love the fact that her and her husband work from home so they’re always home with the animals❤️❤️ I cannot say enough good things about Kathleen. We’ve been using her for years now and she has always come through for last second dates…. Simply the best thank you from the bottom of my heart for the work you do.❤️❤️”
“Enas and her daughters took great care of Rusti. She is very much Mamma’s girl and doesn’t do well when I’m away but she did great with Enas. I will definitely look to use Enas’ boarding again.”
“Nicole was great! We hadn’t had to leave our dog with anyone for awhile, so we wanted to make sure he was staying with someone who would make him feel comfortable. He stayed with Nicole for 3 nights, and she gave us updates (many photos included) throughout the day! We would definitely reach back out to her in the future :)”
“This was my first time working with Dawn and let me tell you she was awesome. She had my Stu over 4th of July weekend and even with the fireworks and her knowing that he does not like them she spent time in the basement so that he would not have to hear them. I can't say enough I will definitely be using her again.”
“I recently used Ashley to watch my fur baby Lexi while I was out of town and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Lexi had a fantastic time with Ashley and her family. She received so much love and attention as well as play time that she was clearly missing them for the next few days after we picked her up. Ashley was incredibly kind, responsible, and attentive to my dog's needs. I received regular updates and photos which put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my trip without worrying about my pup. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Lexi!”
“We are so happy we found Dawn. This was the first time we have used a dog sitter, so we were maybe a bit over protective on choosing the right one for our puppy. Dawn had so many great reviews that I had to reach out. We had a meet and greet and felt very comfortable with leaving our puppy with Dawn and her family. The reason we were needing a dog sitter was because my husband and I were expecting our first child. She was incredibly flexible with the length of stay as we were unsure of when we would be able to leave the hospital. She kept in touch and sent pictures to ease our minds. We will be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for your fur baby to feel at home while away for theirs. Thanks again Dawn!”
