“We had an excellent experience with our dog sitter while we were away for six days. She took the time to schedule a meet and greet beforehand to ensure it was a great fit, which immediately gave us confidence in her care. Throughout our vacation, she provided consistent communication with thoughtful updates, photos, and videos, allowing us to truly relax knowing our dogs were well cared for. When one of our dogs experienced a decrease in appetite, she promptly communicated with us and worked through solutions, which we greatly appreciated. Her attentiveness, reliability, and genuine care for our dogs made our trip completely stress-free. We are very thankful to have found such a dedicated and involved sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”

“Sylvie took great care of my dog Bonnie. Bonnie has a lot of energy but Sylvie was very patient with her and kept her occupied. She sent me pictures and videos throughout and Bonnie came home very tired and happy :)”

“I can't recommend Karen enough as a dog sitter! She has taken exceptional care of my dog, Django, and I always feel at ease knowing he's in her hands. From the moment I met her, it was clear that she has a genuine love for animals. Karen goes above and beyond, ensuring that Django gets plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. She provides regular updates and photos, which I truly appreciate. Django always comes home happy and well-cared for after his time with her.”

“Enas and her girls are super nice and took good care of my little girl. I got updates and photos every day. Enas, very kindly worked with me with the drop off and pick up times. Would use Enas again.”

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Ana! She took excellent care of our Bella. This was our first time using a dog sitter and we couldn't have asked for a better caregiver. Ana gave daily updates that included pictures and videos. She also took Bella on walks and provided lots of cuddle time. She treated her like family and we appreciated that!”

“Denise took excellent care of my fur baby. This is the first time I have left her with a sitter and Denise and her beautiful pup Azure kept her happy, playful and tired out. Denise cooked her wonderful meals and gave healthy treats. She kept me updated with lots of pics and short videos. She has a nice big backyard that is secure and I definitely will be using her services again. My fur baby has a new playmate!”

About: I have taken care of cat’s for the past 4 years. I have lived with a few different cats as an adult. I know they are hard to win over but they have always gravitated to me. I understand that they need their space. I think my gentle energy makes them feel safe so they always take a liking to me. I especially love taking care of cats and giving them all the loving they want. If they are playful I make sure to include play time every day!

“We are very happy with having Katherine looking after our two cats. She exceeded our expectations in taking care of them as well as communicating each visit. We will definitely use the service again”

“Bradlei was quick in her responses to my request and was willing to take my request on such short notice. She asked the right questions and even took notes during our meeting to ensure as little discomfort to kitty as possible while I was out. Her updates were timely and clear, and she took initiative to take care of an unexpected sickness/clean up that we had not discussed beforehand.”

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. Aside from my own pets, I went to Wilco and did their Vet Assistant class my senior year. I took care of a variety of animals, including ferrets and bearded dragons. I loved health care, but would like to go into Radiology once I complete the prerequisites. I am currently a pharmacy technician in training. I’m currently working part time, and will become a part time student in the fall. I am perfect for weekend sits or mid day walks/drop ins! I own 2 dogs, one is a pitbull mix and the other is a husky. I am comfortable with high energy dogs and enjoy long walks. I had a senior dog who passed last year at 15.

“Ashely came by to do a meet and greet a few days before taking care of Kali which was so helpful for me to show her around the house. She followed all of my instructions and Kali was very happy with her! Will definitely be going back to her as needed☺️🥰”

“Was so happy that we found Faith! She took excellent care of our cat while we were away and went above and beyond! We would definitely use her again and recommend her services!”

About: Hi! My name is Jasmine, and I specialize in cat sitting with a deep understanding of feline behavior and care. I’ve always had a natural interest in animal behavior studies, which grew even stronger while working as an assistant zookeeper and studying veterinary science. For the past four years, I’ve cared for my own cat, Sage, and in that time I’ve learned so much about the unique needs, quirks, and personalities that cats bring into our lives. From feeding and playtime to providing a calm, safe environment, I make sure each cat feels comfortable, secure, and loved while their owner is away. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll give them the attentive care they deserve.
About: We have grown up around cats and dogs. We are the go to pet sitters for our families and friends. We have experience with cats, dogs, snakes, turtles, fish, and ferrets. We have house trained our dogs and know the patience required with the process. We both work from home so we are able to take dogs out as needed and nothing is better on a work break then cuddling some fuzzies. We have a large fenced in yard,so dogs can safely run and play. We always stay outside with them. Inside the house is pet proofed with couch protection covers and scratching posts for cats. All kitty litter is gated off from dog access. Water bowls are available upstairs and downstairs. If we are outside for more than 15 minutes we also bring a water bowl outside.
“Amanda is amazing! She asked all the right questions when she met my fur babies and immediately I was out at ease. She is a fantastic communicator and send pics! I really felt like my animals were truly cared for while I was away!”


“Andie took such good care of my kitty Kali! She was very attentive and her bubbly personality made me feel so safe and reassured in leaving Kali in her hands. 200% recommend her services 🥰”

About: I have experience with all different dog breeds and sizes. I know great helpful training techniques. Also, I grew up living with dogs up until now. I have a full time Hybrid job. I work from home 3 days a week and the workload has been fairly light. I currently live with no furry friends and am missing the connection with them. I want to hold off on adopting right now so I thought the best way to fulfill my wants of having a dog will be through this app. I have no fenced in yard or much of a yard at all. My home is spacious though, so there is enough room for your pet to be comfortable and play indoors. I have 3 reptiles that will stay in their tanks and do not cause disruptions. They also love watching other animals from afar.
“Nicole, Thank you for taking care of Maggie for us this weekend, we really appreciate the peace of mind that you provide to Teresa and I. And, a special thanks for your extra effort ensuring our packages were safely brought into our home. Sincerely, Kevin Crosson”

“Laniece was a clear and consistent communicator. She watched my 2 cats for one day. One of my cats is *very* shy. I made it clear to her that I didn't expect her to even see the cats, just to do the chores, because I've had sitters who never set sights on him. Even so, she spent the time to coax both cats out and get them to spend some time with her. This is nothing short of a miracle, I have friends who have never seen him. I sincerely appreciated her commitment to my cats, her clear communication, and her availability on short notice. Will definitely book again.”

About: Hi my names Sophia! I have grown up with and taken care of animals my whole life. From fish to hamsters to cats and dogs I know and love them all! Im currently working part time at a retirement home so I have plenty of extra time to attended to your fur babies! Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday I will be unavailable from 3-8 I do not own my own home so any pet sitting will take place at the clients home. I will follow all instructions left for your fluffy friends and make sure to give them all the attention they deserve!

“Marissa was very professional I like the fact that she was qualified to care for dogs because of her work at a pet clinic and college background. She made sure to take notes for the care of my senior dog Ginger. she took pictures and made sure Ginger was comfortable before leaving. I would highly recommend Marissa for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

“Denise was honestly incredible! It was pretty short notice and some people wouldn’t watch Caesar because he’s a pitbull, she rearranged her schedule to watch him. She gave me multiple updates and pictures throughout. When I came to pick him up, she gave me a painting he made (with the help of peanut butter and plastic wrap I assume)! 1000% recommend”

I feel very comfortable leaving Xo with Karen and Tom and would definitely recommend them!”

“Haily was absolutely wonderful, and I can’t recommend her enough! She took care of my 14 year old Maltese Poodle, Sisco, for a week while I was in Colorado, walking him twice a day and making sure he was fed and well cared for. Normally, I have family watch him because he tends to get anxious when I’m away, so I was a little nervous leaving him with someone new. Haily completely put my mind at ease. She was so kind and patient with him, and it was obvious from all the updates, photos, and detailed commentary that she genuinely cared about him. Seeing how happy and comfortable Sisco looked in every picture meant so much to me. It made being away from him so much easier, and I knew he was in great hands. Thank you, Haily, for taking such amazing care of my little guy. I would absolutely book with you again!”

She provides regular updates and photos, which I truly appreciate. Django always comes home happy and well-cared for after his time with her.”

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Ana! She took excellent care of our Bella. This was our first time using a dog sitter and we couldn't have asked for a better caregiver. Ana gave daily updates that included pictures and videos. She also took Bella on walks and provided lots of cuddle time. She treated her like family and we appreciated that!”

“Denise took excellent care of my fur baby. This is the first time I have left her with a sitter and Denise and her beautiful pup Azure kept her happy, playful and tired out.

She has a nice big backyard that is secure and I definitely will be using her services again. My fur baby has a new playmate!”

She doesn’t get upset in the crate, her bitting has dramatically dropped, and she’s much more claim throughout the day.
