“Su is the absolute best! We had him care for our 10 year old Husky for 2 weeks and he was so great about updates, walks, food, treats, and play time. We also couldn’t pick him up on the scheduled date and Su was so helpful and flexible to keep him an extra night. We are so grateful and highly recommend Su. We look forward to the future stays!”
“Minglu and Yulin were so great with my poodle while we were away for ten days. Bear took to them immediately and I just could tell from the start he was going to adapt quickly thanks to their friendly and welcoming dispositions. I got daily updates with pictures to ease my mind about how he was doing. They communicated promptly and were very flexible with my drop off and pickup needs. I would happily recommend them to anyone and would easily book with them again!”
“This was our first booking with Alex and it was an outstanding experience. Our mini poodle had the time of her life playing with the other 2 dogs. Alex is a great communicator and takes his responsibility of dog care very seriously. Lovely big fenced back yard that provided lot of safe room to run about. We all look forward to booking with Alex again in the near future.”
“Casey is a warm, conscientious, dependable dog sitter. Our beagles loved staying with her for a week. She kept us updated on the pups through photos and was fast in responding to our questions. She even dropped the dogs off at our home! We will definitely book her again. Thank you so much Casey!”
“Julie watched our dog, Arya, for us during our wedding. We have always left her with friends or family and this was the first time not doing so. Julie was very responsive during booking and had Arya and I do a visit to make sure everyone would be safe and comfortable. She did a great job keeping our girl safe, loved, and cared for during such an important time. Julie sent plenty of updates and was very communicative and responsive. I could not recommend her more!”

“Dana and Nia took great care of our puppy. He came back exhausted from all of the playing he had done over the weekend!

“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”
“Eric was quick to respond and agreed to watch Wally at the last minute, which was super helpful. He was attentive to Wally's needs and sent photos throughout the day, keeping us updated on his stay. Eric has a super cute dog who seemed easygoing even when Wally got a bit exciteable at pick-up/drop-off. We would absolutely have Eric watch Wally again. Thank you!”
“I contacted Jing last-minute for an overnight stay. She was super-responsive, and during the stay she sent me photos and updates. My dog Bobo seemed happy and got plenty of time out in the yard with her pooches. I would definitely send him there again if she is available!”

“Needed a car sitter in a pinch and Boning came to save the day. This is the 4th time she's taken care of the cats and she does a great job every time. The house is clean and in order, cats are not anxious, and she leaves us a detailed review. Thank you Boning!”

When we get home our cat is more relaxed than she has ever been with another sitter. Samantha is wonderful with cats and I highly recommend her!”

She was awesome about communication throughout and sent us lots of details and photos about how everything went during her visits. She left everything in perfect order as well. We feel very confident leaving our little guys in Ani's care and will definitely reach out to her again very soon!”
About: I've watched friends' cats before and I'm comfortable giving medication if needed — pills, liquid, whatever the routine calls for. Beyond that, I'm mostly just here to keep things low-key: fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and respecting that some cats want company and some want to be left alone entirely. I'll follow their lead either way.
“Our elderly cat, Karina, is typically is afraid of strangers, but she was comfortable with Rachel and even approached her for pets and attention. Thanks so much, Rachel, for taking great care of her and for your patience with her new litter box habits!”
“Margaret took such great care of our cats, she is wonderful. She is so sweet, very caring and I hope she will take care of Olive and Otis again next time we go away! I highly recommend her!”
About: I have taken care of my own cats for 4 years so far going on 5 I have a cat that is a DSH and his name is Stormy. I also have another cat named Jax he is a very fluffy main coon I love them both and would be very comfortable taking care of other cats too. I love their personalities an they get along well with each other too. Let me know if you ever go away or need a vacation I'd love to take care of your kitties
“Tara is amazing. She’s dropped in twice now with my dog. We had all sorts of issues with the garage door opener and she figured it out so that I didn’t have to rush home to let her in. (Totally my issue). She is also great with the dog. Nice long walks and lots of pictures”
About: I am a behavioral scientist work in a hybrid model (go to office once a week) that spend a lot time researching about healthy living for my own furry baby and others🫶 I pay great attention to my dog's nutrient so that I cook fresh/organic for him and take him to hiking and dog parks. I would make beef and chicken jerky, cheese and carrot biscuits as treats. I basically moved from an apartment to a house for the sake of my dog. He was a 7-week puppy weighted 3 lb when I met him and now he’s 9 years old and 22lb, happy and healthy and kissed everyday! Now we moved together to New England since I graduated from my PhD program. Dogs love me but I adore them more!! I welcome house sitting for your furry friend 🙌👍 I’m a behavioral scientist for preventive oncology (in human) and I work a hybrid job, which means my schedule is quite flexible and I’d like to give my own dog potty breaks every 3 hours during the day. These breaks are often well deserved mental relief for myself between meetings as well. Love to cuddle, giving our fur babies a lot of love. Now I live in a one-bedroom apartment so the capacity for boarding is limited, but I’d love to visit your pet at your place and if they like car ride, I could definitely offer walks in the woods upon prior discussion and an extra charge

“We were delighted with the care for Hugo. We were nervous about leaving him with a new family in unaccustomed surroundings but he clearly had a nice time and was very relaxed when he came home.”
“Debbie is absolutely amazing! We booked with her on short notice for doggy daycare, and we are so grateful to have found her. She has a wonderful fenced outdoor area for the dogs to play in, and an equally pet-friendly home. Debbie followed my dog's feeding and medication schedule perfectly, and she was very flexible and understanding when we needed to shift our pick up and drop off times on the second day. She also sent pictures and updates and was awesome with communication during the stay so that we were able to rest assured our dog was doing well. Don't hesitate for a minute to book with Debbie - you will not be disappointed! :)”
“Duffy had a great time during her first visit with Sean and his dogs. She was exhausted when she arrived home from all the running and playing. We'd recommend Sean to anyone in the area for dog-sitting.”
About: I've had dogs all my life, various breeds. Learned alot about them over the years. Have 3 dogs currently. I have given dogs medication before I look after dogs every single day all the time. I take care of my dogs needs first before my own so I know that they have everything they need on time and are happy and content. I care and treat other people's dogs as if they were my own and I treat mine as if they are family because they are. I would bring a leash to walk the dog if the owner doesn't have one, have doggie bags, safe dog treats, and during the hot months a little water dish and water in case the dog is thirsty. It's important to always be prepared.
“I highly recommend Ling & Ye...they were fantastic! Our schedule was more dynamic than we had intended and they were very flexible. Our boy Riley, 1-year old Golden, had great time and can't wait to get back to see his new friends!”
“Thank you so much, Easton had a great day and was well taken care of and had fun. Alex was flexible and helpful when we needed a bit more time, and kept our pup for longer than initially planned. A great setup and great with Eaton. Thank you! We will see you again soon”
About: I have a 9 year old Shih Tzu, her name is Zola. She loves people and other animals. I am currently home more then expected and would love to help other working people with their pets. If your pet needs a certain food or specific routine, let me know and I am happy to help maintain the normal. When I first got my dog, it was so hard to leave her during the day when I went to work. She was so small, and I didn't want her to be lonely. I understand how hard it is to leave a fur child and want to help others be comfortable knowing they are being looked after during the day or overnight. I will love them like my own. I am currently working from home and have ability to 'schedule' accordingly to cover dog needs - walking or playing and to schedule time as needed to walk near by dogs as well. I do not have a fenced yard. I walk with a leash. I can 'fence' in a small area for free time in the yard. I also can let dogs out on the deck and use 'gates' to block stairs. I care for all pets the same as I do my own. I work remote and have a flexible schedule allowing me to play with and walk your pups at various times. And a lot of time for snuggles and petting I have a good size deck with fenced entrances for general relaxation outside. My yard is not fully fenced but a good size for small dog play
“Jamie was great! Was flexible with an early pickup, communicated quickly, and took good care of our pup. Benji immediately made himself at home and seemed sad to go, he enjoyed his time with Jamie and Sammie.”
“Kayla took great care of Ruby while dog sitting. She provided plenty of updates and my pup had fun day with Kayla and her family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kayla again for sitting!”
“Jess is absolutely great . She was able to accommodate to our last-minute request for daycare for our dog Bruno and was very understanding of our dog’s needs. She kept sending pictures and updates which gave us piece of mind during these times when our dog needs to be monitored. We’re looking forward for Bruno’s next boarding stay with Jess.”
About: Hi! I've been around animals my whole life, and caring for pets is truly second nature to me. I've owned and loved both dogs and cats since I was a kid, and that lifelong experience shows in how I care for every animal I meet. What really sets me apart is my background in pet care and dog training. I graduated from Norfolk County Agricultural High School, where I took many animal science courses. I took classes in canine behavior, pet shop management, and animal science. I learned how to handle, groom, and care for dogs of all breeds, through hands-on experiences. I bring patience, knowledge, and lots of love to every pet I care for. I am college student spending the rest of my summer from July 8 until August 22 at home. This means I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m already helping my family take care of our own dog, so adding more pets to my routine fits in perfectly! I am available Monday through Friday and am very flexible throughout the day, so I can easily accommodate different schedules and needs. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I stay in tune with how they are feeling, making sure they’re well-fed, clean, healthy, and getting plenty of rest and outdoor time. At home, I provide a pet-friendly environment. I’m also lucky to live next to a reservation with trails, open fields, and ponds and streams perfect for dogs who love to explore nature. I enjoy taking pets on these little adventures to keep them active and mentally stimulated. When it comes to pet care, I always treat each animal as if they were my own.
About: I focus on calm, structured, and reliable dog care — especially for dogs that need consistency and clear routines. What I do differently: • Maintain a structured daily routine (walks, rest, feeding on schedule) • Provide a calm and controlled home environment (no chaos, no overcrowding) • Give regular photo/video updates so you always know how your dog is doing I’m especially a great fit for: • High-energy dogs that need structured walks • Dogs that feel anxious in new environments • Owners who want clear communication and peace of mind Services: • Dog walking (30/60 min) • Drop-in visits • House sitting • Boarding (safe, clean, supervised environment) My goal is simple: 👉 Your dog stays calm, safe, and well cared for 👉 You don’t have to worry while you’re away I am currently working from home. I have plenty of time to take good of your pets except on Wednesday Thursday You can drop them off anytime - in order to maintain a healthy environment, I require all dogs to stay with us to be up-to-date with all their vaccines -Dogs who exhibit “marking “behavior will not be accepted -Dogs with any aggressive issue toward people will not be accepted. Thanks for understanding
“Wanda was very responsive and able to accomidate my dog at the last minute. She did a great job taking care of my pup for the day and I'd definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a good sitter.”
“Jhonnari & Mike are lovely! Our dog had so much fun with them at daycare. He came home happy and tired from playing with their two dogs! I would highly recommend them as sitters and will absolutely use them again!”

“Su was absolutely wonderful with Giro. Giro, that is usually poo shy with new people very quickly felt very comfortable 😃 which is a wonderful sign. Thank you Su! We would definitely love to have you walk Giro again”
About: I've cared for kittens, adults, and senior cats my whole life. Love walking dogs from Great Danes to Minature Poodles as well. Frequent volunteer at animal shelter for changing cat and dog cages and socialization. Currently have my cat Meadow. Last two photos are my old pets Nessie the axolotl and Plissken the Sinoloan milksnake. I'm flexible around your schedule and needs, so reach out and we can discuss. Can work weekdays and weekends with more availability weekends. Can work days and nights. I take expert cat care seriously as I want to give your cat the same love as my own: toys, clean boxes, fresh food and water, and plenty of pets. As for dogs, I want them to have fun walking and playing outside in nature.
“Sarah was awesome at accommodating a last min walk and was so sweet with my pup. She asked great questions and was nice enough to leave out fresh water for my dog when she left. We look forward to having Sarah help again soon!”
About: Hi! I've had gerbils, fish and dogs growing up, fostered ducks, snakes and guinea pigs and house sat for the occasional cat (and house plants). My current living situation doesn't allow for me to have pets, but I'd love to spend time helping take care of yours I'm taking a break from engineering to get my EMT certification. I'm available all the time until class starts in May, when I'll be spending the weekday mornings in class I can't host in my home, (roommates with pet allergies) but I'm happy to drive (or train or bus or walk) to see yours in their space.
“Tara is awesome! She takes Murphy on nice long walks and always leaves the nicest notes about his behavior 😊 She is reliable and conscientious. I highly recommend Tara for your dog walking needs (as long as it doesn’t interfere with Murphy’s scheduled walks🤣)!”
About: I have always loved dogs and even have a dog of my own. I am extremely patient and consider myself to be kind. I work as a kindergarten teacher so I am used to taking care of things and tending to their needs. As a kindergarten teacher, I have lots of free time on weekends and school breaks, and I figured the best use of my time would be to do something I already enjoy doing and also help other people out as well. Since I already own a dog of my own I am very conscientious of what dogs can or cannot do, eat, or be near. I try to play with them as much as possible and be friendly with them so they feel comfortable around new people.
About: I have taken care of my Dog Cooper for 16 years. I have experience with puppies and also Senior Dogs. I love taking long walks with all different types of Dogs. I walk my Dog Cooper five times a day. I enjoy taking long walks with Cooper. It’s important to have a clear schedule and routine. I can be a great Dog Walker and provide any care needed at home. I am happy to clean up or help with any care the dog needs.
“The dogs loved Eryn as soon as they met her, and she was up to the challenge of managing their chaos. She even convinced the pup who is convinced that she will melt in the rain to go for a rainy day walk! She was communicative and flexible and we would definitely hire her again!”
About: I am an animal lover and love working with animals I have a great personality and would love to get to know your cat or dog.

“Alexis did an amazing job with our dog, Duke. She took great care of him, giving him plenty of exercise and feeding him while we were away. We will definitely use Alexis in the future!”
About: Dogs are our friends and we should treat our friends how we would like to be treated! I grew up always having dogs and cats around and I couldn’t imagine it any other way! I have one cat at home who is deeply spoiled. I live close to many parks and will be more than happy take them for walks and runs. I will bring along poo bags and a collapsible water bowl to make sure your pup is well hydrated during our walk. I work Monday through Friday from 9am-5pm. I will be available Monday through Friday for evening walks and anytime on the weekends. I will be able to give your dog a bath and a good brush after a walk if needed!
About: I have a strong speciality working with felines and canines. Throughout the years, having pets of my own and pet sitting, I gained hands-on experience providing safe, effective, feeding, bathing, cleaning, and enrichment (including exercise) to varying animals through positive reinforcement. Additionally, taking animal behavior courses over the year's I learned a strong understanding how to interpret and respond to different species behaviors, such as fear. I then translated this knowledge working with fearful and traumatized canines to build their trust over time and to create positive associations in my personal time. I currently have a part-time job and can ensure to make your schedule fit into mine. I'm always sure to communicate if something may come up during your booking, such as other gigs or obligations outside of work, that way there's total clarity on where and when I'll be in relation to your pet(s). I take the care of another's space very seriously, doing my best to leave things as I found them. When I’m caring for pets, whether it’s in my home or yours, my main goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I like to keep their routine as close to normal as possible — same walk times, meals, and plenty of play and cuddle time. In my home, I make sure there’s a comfy spot for naps, space to play, and lots of attention. When I’m at a client’s home, I treat it with respect and care. Every animal is different, so I take the time to get to know what makes each one comfortable and content.
“Nicole is terrific, even with the most moody and eccentric dog on the planet. One day he walks fine, another he won't budge-she knew how to roll with whatever mood my dog was in to make sure his needs were met.”
