“Asha was so quick to respond when I initially reached out and she was a great communicator the whole time my pup was in her care. She sent me pictures and updates every day and she’s so sweet. My pup had the best time with her and I will take her there for as long as I can. Thanks Asha.”

“Lucia kept us up to date with our dog activities by frequently sending us pictures and we really enjoyed them. From the pictures, we could see that our dog was happy. We will definitely bring our dog to her next time we are going out of town again.”


“Jacquline was very efficient with feedback and she sent pictures of bailey enjoying her time with Jacquline family. Jacquline is kind and loves animals. She and her daughter was the perfect match for bailey while I was on vacation. I would definitely work with Jacquline again.🥰🥰”

“Pamela was wonderful with Queenie! He stayed with her for 3 nights and she sent regular updates. I’m always a little nervous about leaving him somewhere new because he is a senior dog with some minor health issues, but she handled him perfectly. Her dog Cassie is very sweet and the 2 got along well. Would definitely book with Pamela again!!”

“My dog, Pancake, had an exceptional boarding experience with Ms. Valeria. She was incredibly respectful and responsive, and her home was immaculate. I appreciated the regular updates she provided during Pancake's stay. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!”

“Crystal took such great care of our Gizmo this weekend. She’s very attentive and caring. She provided plenty of updates and tons of pictures and truly set our minds at ease. We will definitely utilize her again. Thanks Crystal. 😊🥰”


“Jeff was great with Olive. They made sure she was well taken care of and loved. Snuggles, play time in the yard and They even took her to the dog beach! I will definitely use them again! Thanks for making us feel comfortable”

“Kiki dog sat my little man for 2 days. Within the two days I received picture and video updates. My dog Ace literally was all smiles when I went to pick him up ! I am very grateful for the kindness and love Kiki showed to Ace while I was away. I will definitely be booking again, and I highly recommend her to everyone with a 4 legged bestie !”

“Shhh...don't let secret out. Best family EVER to pet sit our Mercy. Multiple stays. They are great, including with ear drops and allergy pills. The whole family shows only love. Mercy clearly enjoys her stays and has no hesitations when I drop her off.”

“Tonya and her family took great care of our baby. They kept us updated with lots of photos. Lola wasn’t feeling well, and they made sure to keep us informed about how she was doing. I highly recommend this family!”


“Tracey is definitely an awesome sitter. I felt really comfortable leaving my dog baby with her. She’s went the extra mile and asked tons of questions about my dog and her feeding schedule. She is very communicative and sent my pictures And updates while I was away. She even wash my dog’s bed before she returned it back to me. I really appreciate her and will definitely return again.”

“This is our third time going with Jasmine as our sitter and we couldn’t be happier. She updates us daily with awesome pictures of both our dogs. She also lets us know how they did and if there is anything she is concerned about them or their health. She is our go to whenever we need our pups well taken care of.”

“Mallory and Max were so wonderful with our pup, Nora! They took care of her for 2 and half weeks while we were out of town. Nora got along so well with their dog, Argos, and she came back so happy!”

“Sandra took excellent care of my energetic two-year old fur baby while we were out of the country for nine days. During that time Sandra sent photos and updates. I felt completely at ease knowing Nani was in good hands!”

“Angela was so very warm, welcoming, and kind to our puppy. Minnie took to her right away, and because of the meet and greet, she knew exactly where we were going when we dropped her off. Angela was very thorough, asking all the important questions, and she even let my daughter visit to say hi to Minnie.”

“Barbara was absolutely what I had been searching for. I wanted someone to care for Bentley as if he was their own. I needed to have a person that understands pups that are somewhat privileged (spoiled). Bentley was cared for and loved on and was never exposed to danger. Barbara cared for Bentkey so well that he became possessive when her when her pup Justice wanted her attention. Barbara is an A1 sitter and I would use her again.”

“I left my dog here for about a week and they were amazing. The communication was fantastic. They sent me multiple daily updates with pictures included. I would recommend them to everyone.”


“Rene was great all around. She was responsive and took great care of my dog. Although there were multiple dogs being sat, she was good at ensuring all the dogs played well together. We got plenty of pics to see our dog happy and getting plenty of love. I recommend Rene and plan to use her again.”

“We can’t recommend Alexandra enough!! She went way above and beyond. We needed help with giving our cat new medication for a new illness when we went on a planned vacation. It was stressful for us to leave our fur baby behind, but Xan relieved so much anxiety. She successfully pilled our cat each day which is no small feat. Add to that, my dad accidentally let our other cat outside and she was lost for 4 days. Xan was so kind in helping my father (who was embarrassed and anxious) look for the missing cat then also sent photos and updates when the missing cat came home. Her communication and kindness was outstanding from the first meeting. Heck, she’s also a good human. You won’t regret working with Xan and your furry family members will thank you for placing them in such great care.”

“Carla did a wonderful job with our cats! One of our cats is a little tricky and senior and she was very calm and patient with him. We got regular updates and had a wonderful time on vacation without any worries”
“Karleigh took our drop in request on short notice and was super responsive and flexible throughout the week. We felt very confident leaving our cat in her care and she went above and beyond to make sure we came back to a clean house and a happy cat.”

“Sarah went above and beyond the call of duty. She not only fed my cats and ferals with care, but also checked on the Rumba robot, straightened the cameras, and even watered the plants. Her attention to detail and thoughtfulness were exceptional. I highly recommend her.”

“Delina was absolutely amazing with my sweet, social, needy kitty Cardi B. I get really anxious leaving her for extended periods of time because she tends to get sad when she’s alone, but I had a lot of peace of mind with Delina. She truly went above and beyond, giving Cardi lots of scratches, cuddles, and playtime. I especially appreciated all the photos and videos Delina sent during her visits. Don’t hesitate to book Delina, your pet will be in very safe hands. It’s clear that she loves animals and puts a lot of care into what she does. Next time I have to leave town I’ll definitely rebook!!”

About: I have a passion for animals, especially dogs I have had experience with pets for a couple of years and will be sure to take care of your fur babies. I can currently care for your cherished pet between 6-11:30 on the weekdays and anytime during weekends as long as you give me a little notice I will give your pups my full undivided attention and all the care they need you can trust they’ll be well taken care of when you leave them with me
“This was our first time using Janis as a pet sitter and it won't be our last. Our cats were so happy and clearly at ease with her (one of them hides from most people and was waiting for Janis at mealtime), her notes and photos were lovely. Overall an A+ experience.”


“Connie is fantastic! For the first time ever, I decided to use a drop-in sitter to take care of my two cats while I was on vacation. I figured maybe that would help reduce the anxiety of having to put them in the cat carriers and take them to be boarded. What a difference it made! I had a meet and greet with Connie just before I left, and she was so friendly and so caring. Every day she came by to check on my two boys and sent pictures as well! One of them was too shy to ever come down, but when I arrived home today, he was perfectly happy and healthy. Fantastic experience using Connie and rover, I will definitely use it again whether it be for a short term absence or a longer vacation. What a fantastic service!”


“Ryon was amazing with our kitties! We cannot recommend Ryon enough. Going out of town is always stressful with 4 kitties at home, but Ryon eased our anxiety by sending daily photos and detailed updates, which was truly appreciated. Ryon clearly spent quality time playing with and comforting our pets. We returned home to four happy, healthy and relaxed animals. Professional, punctual, and a true animal lover, thank you Ryon!”


“We were very satisfied with our first boarding experience. Smokey acclimated the sitter much faster than anticipated. He enjoyed his stay and bonded with the sitter in less than one week. We will definitely use her services again when we travel. This was a long trip (17 days) during the 2025 holiday season.”


“Lilla was great for visiting with my two pups! She was flexible and quick to respond when I needed a sitter due to unexpected trip to attend a funeral. She communicated well and provided me pictures of her visits. She even cleaned up after one of my pups when she got sick in the house. I’d recommend her and will use her again. Thank you, Lilla, and sorry about the pup mess!”


“Mikeala was outstanding! She loves cats and it showed in her every interaction with them and me. The food and water were just as they needed them and they were absolute intent when I returned home. I could not ask for more than a sitter, and will be hoping she is available next time I need a sitter.”

“Kathryn was a wonderful pet sitter for our very skittish cat Bear. She was patient and gentle, gradually earning his trust so that he welcomed her company, came downstairs with her, and allowed her to pet him and feed him up close. She also took good care of our house and was careful to make sure she understood and followed our requests regarding plant watering and other household tasks as well as cat care. We couldn't have asked for a better or more compatible cat sitter and are so grateful for her kindness and excellent care! We would definitely hire Kathryn again and recommend her highly.”

“Thank you, Kiki, for making Bella feel at home. For my somewhat anxious 9 year old, this was a wonderful treat! Looking forward to day care and boarding with you for our little gal!”

“Julie took good care of my timid pup Sophie. She sent some pics during the day, and Sophie seemed happy and comfortable when I picked her up. Julie is also very easy to communicate with - a plus. I'll be using her again to care for Sophie.”


“So glad to have found Jeff and a great, safe place for our dog to chill while we're away! So clear that he's a pro and gets along with all kinds of dogs and creates great, safe environment for them in his home. Appreciate it and we'll be back!!”

“Tiffany has again been amazing with accommodating our ever-changing schedules. Our dog feels totally comfortable with her and gets excited to see her in the mornings. We are definitely lucky to have found someone to take such great care of our girl!”

“My dog Bradley felt at ease when he was at Paul and Amy's place. My husband and I also truly appreciated the updates they sent us during the day. Thank you so much!”

“Jeramy is amazing! She is so patient and loving with our girl and her dog Henry is so sweet. What a relief to have someone who is kind and dependable to watch our dog. Highly recommend!!!”

“Asha dog sat our beagle for the day and he had a great time! She sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. It was great knowing he was in good hands! Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”

“Catie was great with my pup Ruby! Ruby has some extra triggers, and Catie not only was great with making sure Ruby did okay and figuring out what Ruby needed alongside the other dogs in care that day, but also provided frequent updates throughout the day. 5/5!”

“Mei regularly cares for my older dog Bear and she does a fantastic job. She takes him on walks and I feel confident that he will have a wonderful day in her care. I highly recommend Mei!”

About: I’ve owned two dogs in my lifetime and watched others dogs outside of my own as well. I love the doggies and they love me! I currently work from home so I have a lot of time to watch pets who need the attention while their loved ones are away. I leave in a secure apartment building that offers designated dog areas. My apartment itself is big enough for he/she to walk around and be comfortable.
“Rafa absolutely LOVED his stay with Supon. He is an anxious pup with pandemic induced separation anxiety and we get so nervous leaving him. He had a great time and because we knew he was being taken care of, we had a good time away. We got lots of picture updates which made us so happy and feel so comfortable. Supon is the best!!!”

“Wally loved staying there and Claire was wonderful with him. She was very responsive in terms of communication and was willing to meet up once before our stay as a meet and greet to make sure he was okay!”


“Andrew was so great! Sent us photos and updates throughout the day, and our dog Milo was chill and happy when we picked him up. We would happily bring Milo back to see him again!”


“I was really impressed with Jason N. and can't recommend him highly enough! My pup is a shy rescue with separation anxiety, but she immediately felt right at home at Jason N.'s and was having so much fun with the wonderful resident dog that she barely noticed when I left. I received regular updates on her day that completely assuaged any concerns I'd normally have, and when I picked her up at the end of the day I found her happy, relaxed, and all played-out. Having someone I really trust to watch Stella is an immense piece of mind, and I'll definitely be calling Jason N. next time I need a sitter.”

“Nick provided excellent care for Maverick while I had to attend an in-person work meeting for the day. He kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind, and he sent the best pictures of Maverick enjoying himself. It was clear Maverick was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. I truly appreciate the attention and care Nick provided, especially with Maverick still being a puppy. I would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for reliable and caring puppy-watching services!”


“Sharon took great care of my dog, Beanie! We have been with Sharon for the past 3 years now and she has been awesome with day care and overnight care. Thank you Sharon!!”

“Shantell was great!!! She was very accommodating and made sure Lando was perfectly cared for. He loved having some friends to hang out with and can’t wait to go back.”

“Carla was on time and sent me pictures of the walk she took with my dog. I appreciate her help and she has been flexible with my confusing schedule. Would recommend and plan to use her services again in the future.”

“Another great walk! Amy and Paul have come over to walk Opie several times now and they’re always on time and follow all instructions. They are a huge help when I’m away at work all day”

“Will be using Luisa again! What a great experience from start to finish with our first walk. Great communication as well and helped ease of first time anxiousness with a dog walker.”

“Appreciate Nicole's care and attention for my pup Cassie on their walk. Cassie likes to take her time, stopping to sniff spots or lay down, so I booked an hour walk. Nicole made sure she got the full walk in so Cassie could enjoy her usual exercise and mental stimulation.”

“Alex was great. Communication was excellent, provided pictures, and took very good care of our pups. Made being away less stressful. I do recommend him, and will use his services again.”

“Ms. Kat is a fantastic dog walker. Takes such good care of my Winston everyday and takes the best pictures of him. She is also very nice! We are lucky to have her help!”


About: I have experience with both cats and dogs, mostly cats, but love both dearly. I have had pets in my house ever since I was a kid and enjoy their company greatly. Taking care of animals comes to me naturally and am excited to meet all types of pets. I am happy to help play and exercise your pets as needed and instructed :) I am currently a college student so I have many times where I am either in school or studying but I know for sure Tuesdays I am free. Other days I would need some sort of heads up to see if I can fit into my schedule. For instance Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays work for me if I have a couple of days notice ahead of time. I will be sure to follow thorough instructions when it comes to having to care for your pets in your house. I understand that having a space with pets can be a handful especially when gone so I will do everything in my power to make both parties comfortable!
“Bethany was absolutely wonderful with Bentley! She was kind, reliable, and clearly has a natural love for animals. She kept me updated throughout the day with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. Bentley came home happy, calm, and well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail and the extra care she put into making sure he was comfortable and safe. I would highly recommend Bethany to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Madeline has been an awesome dog walker. She shows up on time and my German shepherd absolutely loves her ! I hope to always be able to book with Madeline in the future.”

“Selfishly we don’t want to review Kathryn and let the secret out of how great she is! Our pup adores her and she has really helped him come out of his shell. We are really grateful to have found such a kind and patient dog walker!”

About: What sets me apart is the personal care and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I have experience potty training my own dog, so I’m patient and consistent with routines—especially helpful for puppies! I also create a calm, cozy environment that helps pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Having both a dog and a cat at home, I’m comfortable with different pet personalities and needs. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine! I have a small dog and a cat, so my day includes regular walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of cuddles. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they get the love and attention they need. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they can feel comfortable and loved. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and playtime.
About: Ive been taking care of pets for a very long time, walking, feeding, and playing with them. Ive had pets my whole life. I love dogs Im currently home all day so ill have plenty of time to care for your pet im available 7 days a week i have flexible drop off and pickup times I have a closed in deck that your pet can run around and play or they can just chill and enjoy the weather.i can crate your pet if needed and i can also keep your separate from other pets as well
“Amanda and Loki were great hosts to Bella once again. Amanda sent many photos and videos throughout Bella’s stay and very communicative. Looking forward to booking with her again knowing Bella always has a great time.”

“Tommy always takes great care of my dogs, they can be a handful of energy and sneaky, so I appreciate his watchful care and his updates. Highly recommend”

“Charnetta was very helpful and kind to us. We made some last minute adjustment and she accommodated us readily. Her space was great for our dog. She also kept us updated during our pup's stay with them. Great sitter overall!”

“Cynthia was an absolutely wonderful sitter for Vixen. She took the time to understand all of Vixen’s unique quirks and needs, and handled everything with such kindness and care. She kept me updated throughout the stay and communicated clearly, which gave me so much peace of mind. Cynthia also helped Vixen warm up to her, which really supported her socialization—something I deeply appreciate. I especially loved the thoughtful after-report she shared recapping the entire stay. I’m incredibly grateful for her, and I absolutely look forward to having Cynthia watch Vixen again!”

“Evan and Megan are phenomenal. They are extremely kind hearted, loving and made me feel very comfortable. They sent continuous updates. I will definitely recommend them and will be using them in the future.”

“Marissa was amazing and took the absolute best care of my pup! I can tell that my pup got all the love, attention, and had an absolute blast. Marissa was amazing with switching my pickup dates due to my work changing my schedules last minute. She also bathed, groomed, and trimmed her nails which was a cherry on top of my pups stay! We will definitely be going back so my pup can have the best time ever!”

“Sam and Tracy were very attentive to Sophie's medical needs and were great communicators, including photo updates every day. I really appreciated their prompt responses to any questions prior to booking and their flexibility scheduling a meet and greet. Sophie seemed to have a great time, and was able to be outside quite a bit (her favorite)! We've already booked again!”
