“Link enjoyed his stay. The videos of him having zoomies don’t lie. Picked him up and he was tuckered. Thank you Curtis, Lindsey and family for treating Link as one of your own. Will definitely book you guys for future times when Link can’t travel with us.”
“Zeke had a great time at Samantha’s. She gave us constant updates. She took special care of Zeke as he has some hip issues. I glad I found her and would definitely use her services in the future.”
“Christa was amazing with our fur baby. She sent pictures almost daily and was quick to respond to all texts. I highly recommend Christa. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
“My Golden had a wonderful 2 week stay with Karen. She sent videos and pictures everyday. Her whole family is so sweet and she has a beautiful property! Will definitely use her in the future.”
“Terri was absolutely wonderful. She let us do a meet & greet before leaving my pups which really gave me peace of mind. She had a nice & clean environment. Daily reassurance of how they have been doing along with a ton of pictures and to top it of she was so kind to gift them some new toys to keep!”
“Michelle was AMAZING with my little girl! I felt completely at ease being away because she truly put her heart and soul into the visit. Will definitely be bringing my girl back for another stay as she had SO much fun and received SO much love!”
“My dog was in really good spirits on his return home. That's always a good sign of a good dogsitter who is attentive and loving. I can always tell when Butters had a rough stay but his first stay with Frances was a very good one. Thanks and we'll be seeing you again!”
“Jason is amazing as always! We had a last minute request and he was very accommodating. This time our pup stayed with him and Jason was absolutely fantastic. Jason kept us updated with regular messages and photos, and it was clear our furry companion was comfortable and well cared for. Pickup/drop-off was smooth, communication was quick, and our pup came home happy and relaxed. We’ll definitely be booking with Jason again, and I’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and professional sitter.”
“Renee was amazing watching our dog for the weekend! You can tell how much she loves dogs and how connected to them she is. She was communicative leading up to the stay and gave a lot of updates and pictures throughout the weekend. It was such a peace of mind knowing our dog was in good care and having a great time in Renee’s care. Highly recommend her!”
“Lydia was fantastic! She welcomed her home to us with her lovely family including her chickens during our meet and greet. We proceeded to boarding 2 nights with her. Her home provided a warm, cozy and energetic vibe for our Poodle who is out going and craves human interaction. Lydia was not familiar with poodle grooming initially but after a quick demonstration and positive feedback she mastered it in no time. I appreciated her attention to detail, ability to communicate throughout the day and her willingness to learn how to care for specific dog breeds. It was a mutual rewarding experience and she even supervised her children doing obedience training with our pup.”
“Another great stay for Kingsley at his favorite place on earth! Evvery takes such great care of Kingsley and it's always a joy to know he's being loved while we're away :)”
“Marylee and her husband were so amazing with our Iris. They indulged her with healthy foods when she was too fussy to eat her own food, give her lots of cuddles and love, and let her run off her excess energy in their huge fenced-in yard. They also sent me frequent pictures and updates. They are loving and patient and I would highly recommend them. We will definitely be using them again, I hope!”
“Angie is outstanding! She deserves more than five stars! Our fur babies were well taken care of, pampered and loved. With Angie it’s a “ family affair”. Hubby and kids along with her provide top notch care. She provided great updates, videos, pictures and dialogue. So happy we have found her. Needless to say Beignet and Brie can’t wait to return. They are already missing their new doggie friends and of course the chickens.”
“Auana was excellent! My puppy was in great hands, she is super responsive and gave me updates throughout my dog’s stay with her. Her willingness to follow my dog’s care plan was extra comforting. Will be booking her again!”
“Apollo had a lovely time staying with Sriju! She has such a peaceful, calm spirit and a cozy home. Apollo felt comfortable right away. Sriju’s house is located on a corner with a large yard next to it and there is a playground and dog park close by. We feel lucky to have found her!”

“Brooke took care of our cat Garfield while we attended our son's wedding in Virginia; it's been several years since we had a sitter. No worries. Brooke arrived on time, did everything we asked, and texted us a picture/update at each visit. She is now Garfield's new friend. Highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 13 years and have experienced with a range of animals. Ive grown up with and taking care of dogs and also have experience with cats and horses. I’m considered my family and friends dog whisperer and go to for training and introducing dogs to one another. I’m a big believer that pets aren’t more than just pets, they’re our furry family members and deserve all the love in the world! I currently work full time but get home around 4 for evening play dates with the pups! I’m also available during the weekend and every other Friday for walks or check ins. I love an active lifestyle and love walks so I am more than able to walk the pups! I don’t have a fenced in yard but I am happy to go out and walk around as much as a dog may like!
“Rebecca did an amazing job taking care of our two cats while we were on vacation! She sent great updates and cute pictures to let us know our kitties were happy and well. While we were nervous to leave them, our cats were well taken care of by Rebecca and we didn’t have anything to worry about. 😺”
“Once again, Jenny was absolutely great with our cats. She gave wonderful updates every day including pictures and videos! She pays attention for any issues and has great communication. She asks questions for clarification to make sure she is doing everything the way you would like them done. We appreciate her so much and will be booking again. 💜”
“Tanya was great to work with and was great with our two dogs. Our dogs are a bit tentative when meeting new people, so Tanya was great with letting them get acclimated with her before leashing them. She is very responsive and easy to work with!”
“Angela once again took care of our cats while we were on vacation. She sends picture updates and lets us know how things are going daily. We came home to swept cat areas, scooped boxes, and no messes. We are very thankful for Angela and we trust our four legged kids with her. We will continue to book Angela for all of our travels.”
“Judy did an excellent job caring for our Twin cats Salt and Pepper while we were on vacation. We came home to a clean place and happy cats. Judy provided pictures and great communication throughout the duration of the task. Salt and Pepper would be very exited to see Judy again”
“Samantha was fantastic! We felt completely at ease going on a week long vacation while she cared for our cat Dolly at home. She sent continuous communication of visits and photos along with a detailed list of specific care items for Dolly. She is extremely friendly, personable, and professional. Dolly warmed right up to her immediately and we know exactly who we will be contacting for any future trips. We cannot recommend Samantha enough for her wonderful care and reassurance!”
About: I have owned 4 cats before, 2 as a child and 2 as a young adult. I had a senior cat named Pyper who needed lots of patience and care in order to keep up with her medication. Most recently I temporarily owned a male kitten named Kovy with a family member, who grew up to be the sweetest black cat!
About: I have lived with a dog my whole life. I walk, feed, and play with my 170 lbs mastiff. I also walk, feed, and play with my neighbors 3 dogs, one of which has trouble walking and getting up and down the steps. I just graduated from college and currently not working, which makes my schedule pretty free. I am open to early mornings and/ or late night walks and feeds! If the house does not have a fence I will keep a leash on at all times to help ensure the dogs safety and help prevent them from running away.
“Very good - Jessie was flexible when weather changed our plans and provided good updates. Our dog just wanted to lie in bed, but Jessie tried to coax her into some exercise and was willing to stay the full 30 minutes.”
“Jennifer was lovely! She house sat for our three cats, which includes two rambunctious kittens. She followed instructions and provided updates, and left our house in great condition.”

“Katherine is really a sweet person, she treated my Pudge as her own, it was my dog first time in a daycare away from us and he is not a easy dog. She communicated and kept us updated on how my dog was doing and tried her best to make him feel at home. I will be booking her again in the future ?”

About: I have had dogs since I was 5, and I started working at a doggy daycare when I was 18. My senior year of highschool I was an intern at a local animal hospital and I loved it! I would love to spend the summer with your dogs and provide whatever services and help you may need! I am currently unemployed for the summer, so I can spend any time needed with your dogs. I have applied for jobs, so if my availability changes you will be notified but as of right now I am free to do anything. I have a huge (not fenced in) backyard. Since working at the doggy daycare, I have experience in helping dogs into crates, doing specific food for the dogs, attending to their personal needs, and making sure they have hours of entertainment and love.

“Thank you James and Mary for watching my pups at a last minute’s notice. I appreciate your updates throughout the day. The pups told me they had a wonderful time! Wendy T”
About: Lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats and a horse and studying psychology in college. I believe quality time for bonding, play and affection is just as important as food/potty breaks for pet happiness. The best part of pet sitting is the quality time spent with your pet after all the business is done! I have a flexible schedule so I'm able to make most times work. I can walk, feed, water, scrub bowls, medicate (comfortable administering oral meds to dogs and cats), clean up as needed, play with and generally whatever is needed to keep your pet on a regular schedule. We have 2 friendly smaller dogs and a dog door & ramp straight out to the fenced backyard. The house is one level with only 1 step in and out. There are crates set up in multiple locations and there are ways to separate animals safely if ever needed. Someone is home all day every day, pets are never kept without heat or AC.
About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets, including feeding, walks, playtime. I treat every pet like family and always keep owners updated with photos and messages. I can do pet sitting in the mornings, lunch time, evenings and weekends to fit your busy schedule and provide loving care to cats, dogs and reptiles I am working from home, have fenced yard, small friendly dog and kids that love animals, if you prefer me to host your pet. I can also visit your pets at your house if it works better for you.
About: Looking for an experienced caregiver while you travel? Look no further! I’ve worked at a dog daycare, vet clinic, and own a successful dog training business so I’m familiar with different personalities. I also know how to help your dog feel at home and care for them like my own! I’ve helped many clients raise puppies so I’m familiar with the specific needs of caring for a puppy as well as caring for my own senior pups over the years. I’m a stay at home mom so your pup will get plenty of love and attention while you’re away! Your pup will be cared for like our own! I have a fenced 1/2 acre fully secure backyard and two pups of my own to keep yours company! They’ll have a blast running around the yard and in our home.
“Lydia Is an awesome sitter! My dog Bennett absolutely thrives there, she takes him on little adventures he plays outside it’s wonderful! I would highly recommend her! She also sends pictures all the time which I adore!”

She is a gem in my experience, and I will definitely be booking her services again in the future. She sends pictures and keeps you in the loop throughout the entire time! We definitely felt at ease with her taking care of our boy Milo. Thank you for taking such a great care of my baby!”
“Joshua and his girlfriend were so accommodating with my last minute (day before) request. My dog was calm and content when I picked him up both days- a great indicator to me that he had an stress-free time with Joshua. Definitely recommend and would use his services again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with childhood dogs (Lab and a Scottish Terrier) and love all animals! I'm the go-to dog sitter for both family and neighbors as we have lots of extra room in our house and hearts, along with a fenced in yard. I can't wait to treat your baby like my own! My husband works from home and can let your fur baby outside as needed and keep them company. I love to cater to your dogs needs! Whether that's a game of fetch in the back yard, going for a long walk, meeting new friends at my neighborhood dog park, or hanging out on the couch, I'm just happy to have them around! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly cat at home. He keeps to himself for the most part. I also have two children who love to play with and respect animals as much as I do!
About: I've always had animals and I always will. They soothe the soul and fill your heart with love. I'm here to be your respond caregiver! I work from home part time and have a ton of flexibility to care for other animals. It's something that brightens my day, too! Win-win. I follow directions provided carefully always leading with the pets trust and love for me. I am open and honest and understand the huge responsibility of an animal!
About: Hi! I’m Ingrid, a mom of 4 boys ages 3-12 and a dog owner to a boy Beagle named Otis. I’ve had dogs all my life and love being with them and caring for them! (I even trained Otis from a puppy!) We have a large house in the country on 2.5 acres of land. We LOVE having other dogs stay and visit! Otis and the children are very good with other dogs! Other than taking care of the house and kids, taking care of dogs is my only other job, so your pup will get plenty of needed attention and have lots of fun with us!!! We are on a 2.5 acre property, but no fence, so outside time will be on leash only- (we have long leashes for more freedom to roam). Inside is more flexible with free roam in the main area- very large sunroom, living room, and kitchen. We have a large area for dogs to sleep overnight comfortably either on a dog bed or crate, whichever is preferred.
About: I have a long, sturdy fence that offers total peace of mind. Whether it's a puppy with zero recall or a senior who gets disoriented, they can enjoy the fresh air safely and off-leash under my constant supervision. I am happy to reinforce your consistency with house-training and basic manners. As a dedicated dog lover, pet care isn't a side task it’s my daily rhythm. I work from home, meaning your dog has constant companionship and immediate access to my secure, long-fenced yard for frequent "zoomies" or sunbathing. My long, secure fence is the backbone of my safety protocol. It allows for off-leash "zoomies" and exploration without the risk of bolting. I never leave dogs unattended in the yard; I am always out there with them.
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels — from playful young labs and doodles to senior dogs and cats needing extra patience and attention. I’m naturally calm and gentle, but I also love matching a pet’s energy through play, walks, and engagement. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Since I’m home from college for the summer, I have a very open and flexible schedule that allows me to fully focus on pet care. I’m able to provide pets with lots of attention, companionship, exercise, and regular updates for owners throughout the day. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking to their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and companionship while adapting to each pet’s personality and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos for owners while they’re away.
“I highly recommend Auana as she is expertly took care of my pup while I was at work. She made sure to ask all the right questions to provide the right care. Norbert and I both were impressed with communication and attention during his stay. Thanks again!”

About: I will treat your pet as if it is my own and will make sure they stay calm and happy while you are away!! I have experience with older dogs and puppies! I am available on Thursday and Friday nights and weekends.I am a full time college student working on my Bachelors of science. Pet sitting can be fit into my schedule as needed. I can let the dogs run outside for a while in a fenced yard, I can take them on walks through the neighborhood, I can practice commands, or just give some snuggles.
“Once again Jenny came in and saved the day. An appointment turned into an all day ordeal but I was not stressed because I knew Jenny was coming to walk the dogs and they would be taken care of until I got home.”
“Jessie has been wonderful with our pup Sadie. She is a great communicator and texts updates if there are any changes to the schedule. It’s fun to see all the pictures she adds to the daily report. We appreciate all she does for Sadie.”
About: I am very kind and peaceful. I know how to approach and introduce myself to pets I've never met. I was raised with dogs and cats in my childhood home and I have been blessed with four dogs of my own and one cat throughout my adult life. My last dog, Cody (a Boston Terrier), passed in September 2016 and since then I enjoy cuddling, nurturing, and playing with my own grandpups (3) who are very happy and excited when they come for sleepovers at my house frequently. I am a business owner working from home which allows a flexible schedule for me and I have the ability to meet client's pets' needs easily because the work I perform is not 9-5. I live in a house on 1/2 acre with a fenced back yard. There is plenty of safe play room for pets. They will have free reign for stays in my home depending on their behavioral needs, just as my own dogs experienced during their lives. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood where I am able to walk dogs by wooded areas and small fields, and also can take them to terrific nearby parks for outside time.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have previous work experience at a kennel. Most importantly, I am certified in pet CPR and First Aid. I am currently a college student, so my summer is completely free for all your animals. If you would like to schedule a meeting with me beforehand let me know! I have a 3 acre yard with an invisible fence. My neighborhood is a very nice place to take walks in. I also believe your pets should be comfortable, so if I come to your home I will make sure to take care of everything.
About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience, caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s been a lifelong passion. From a young age, I’ve been surrounded by animals and have dedicated my life to understanding and supporting their needs. I am a certified veterinary assistant and have worked professionally as a veterinary technician in a veterinary office in Utah, giving me a strong medical background and the ability to recognize and respond to a wide range of health and behavioral concerns. My experience also includes working in multiple kennels across many states where I cared for both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. This has given me the skills to handle everything from energetic puppies to senior pets requiring extra patience and care. At home, I’m a proud pet owner myself. I have a 13-year-old Chihuahua that I’ve raised since he was a puppy, as well as an 11-year-old pit bull mix I rescued from a shelter in 2017, and my beloved cat I adopted in 2023. My own pets have given me firsthand experience with aging animals, rescue care, and the importance of providing a safe, loving environment. When you trust me with your pet, you can feel confident knowing they will be treated like family—with compassion, experience, and the highest level of care. I am open most days, as I homeschool my child. Saturday afternoons are usually reserved for personal time but I am available in the morning and night. I can let your dog out in your back yard, take them for a walk, clean litter boxes, do playtime, give food, water, and medications on their schedule.
“Angela has walked my dog 3-4 times now and she is absolutely dependable, reliable, patient, conscientious, and has gone above and beyond to work with my shy and often skittish rescue. I can’t thank Angela enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for family and friends for the past 3 years, but I have been taking care of dogs for my whole life. I have experience with dog training as I trained dogs for dog shows. I don’t mind cleaning up and keeping the space tidy. I also love sending cute pictures of your babies when they’re under my care. I’m currently a college student, but over the summer I do research twice a week, so I am free most weekdays and weekends. I have plenty of time to do dog walks or spend a day with your pet while you are out. For multiple days, it depends on the dates and how long I can be away from your pet (ex. A cat) if it’s on a day I have to work my lab. I like to follow the instructions clients give me precisely and appreciate receiving detailed instructions. I love hanging out with your pets and playing with them. I like to keep their daily routine as close to their normal as I can, keeping them healthy and happy.
“Did a great job with my dog. Great communication, got along well with my dog and we scheduled a meet and greet before the first walk. She sent pictures of my dog during the walk and after. Locked the house up fine. No issues. I would definitely use again.”

I have two dogs of my own so I know how to take care of them, give them their proper food, and take them on long and short walks! :) Im currently working part time at my job so for the most part i’m available! Best days and times for me would be Thursday, Friday, and the weekends preferably in the late morning, afternoon, or evening! At my house we have a lot of gates and fenced off areas so that they won’t pee or make messes. If needed I can easily do so! I can also try to feed them specific foods you might have and such.

“Christa was amazing with our fur baby. She sent pictures almost daily and was quick to respond to all texts. I highly recommend Christa. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
“My Golden had a wonderful 2 week stay with Karen. She sent videos and pictures everyday. Her whole family is so sweet and she has a beautiful property! Will definitely use her in the future.”
“Terri was absolutely wonderful. She let us do a meet & greet before leaving my pups which really gave me peace of mind. She had a nice & clean environment. Daily reassurance of how they have been doing along with a ton of pictures and to top it of she was so kind to gift them some new toys to keep!”
“My dog was in really good spirits on his return home. That's always a good sign of a good dogsitter who is attentive and loving. I can always tell when Butters had a rough stay but his first stay with Frances was a very good one. Thanks and we'll be seeing you again!”
“Jason is amazing as always! We had a last minute request and he was very accommodating. This time our pup stayed with him and Jason was absolutely fantastic. Jason kept us updated with regular messages and photos, and it was clear our furry companion was comfortable and well cared for. Pickup/drop-off was smooth, communication was quick, and our pup came home happy and relaxed. We’ll definitely be booking with Jason again, and I’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and professional sitter.”
“Renee was amazing watching our dog for the weekend! You can tell how much she loves dogs and how connected to them she is. She was communicative leading up to the stay and gave a lot of updates and pictures throughout the weekend. It was such a peace of mind knowing our dog was in good care and having a great time in Renee’s care. Highly recommend her!”
“Lydia was fantastic! She welcomed her home to us with her lovely family including her chickens during our meet and greet. We proceeded to boarding 2 nights with her. Her home provided a warm, cozy and energetic vibe for our Poodle who is out going and craves human interaction. Lydia was not familiar with poodle grooming initially but after a quick demonstration and positive feedback she mastered it in no time. I appreciated her attention to detail, ability to communicate throughout the day and her willingness to learn how to care for specific dog breeds. It was a mutual rewarding experience and she even supervised her children doing obedience training with our pup.”
“Another great stay for Kingsley at his favorite place on earth! Evvery takes such great care of Kingsley and it's always a joy to know he's being loved while we're away :)”
“Marylee and her husband were so amazing with our Iris. They indulged her with healthy foods when she was too fussy to eat her own food, give her lots of cuddles and love, and let her run off her excess energy in their huge fenced-in yard. They also sent me frequent pictures and updates. They are loving and patient and I would highly recommend them. We will definitely be using them again, I hope!”
“Angie is outstanding! She deserves more than five stars! Our fur babies were well taken care of, pampered and loved. With Angie it’s a “ family affair”. Hubby and kids along with her provide top notch care. She provided great updates, videos, pictures and dialogue. So happy we have found her. Needless to say Beignet and Brie can’t wait to return. They are already missing their new doggie friends and of course the chickens.”
“This was my first time using a sitter for my fur baby. Rodney and Marissa sent a written update along with pictures. Hachi seemed quite comfortable with them and his new playmates.”
“Words cannot express my satisfaction having Annette look after Axel. Learning of her experience with fosters it was a no brainer to book with her. My experience dropping off and picking up, seeing her interact with my boy and hearing how she handled situations with him, solidified she will be my go to sitter. It was wonderful peace of mind to know Axel would be taken care of in a lovely home environment.”
“Bondi couldn’t have been in better hands! Tanya is wonderful and her home was incredibly comfortable for his stay. She sent daily updates with a photo or two and it was clear that Bondi was having a blast! I was a little worried that he might not want to come home with me because he had such a fun time. Bondi even learned to swim in her pool. I can’t thank Tanya enough for taking such terrific care of my puppy!”
“Mindy has been very accommodating and reliable with our 2 golden retrievers. Previous planned dog sitter cancelled 12 hours before, Mindy onboarded them in no time and they felt home right away. I do recommend her wo. Any doubts”
“Jennifer went above and beyond in every aspect possible. When you try out a new app like Rover, it can be very scary to entrust your baby with someone. Even once you find someone who seems to click with your puppy, you just help they at least feed them, but thankfully, I hit the jackpot! Jennifer was not just a care giver, she loved my Roxie, and I was a bit surprised my dog was happy to see me since she had such a wonderful time with Jennifer. I was sent several updates daily. She a godsend!!! We will be using Jennifer again next month. If you are looking for a genuine and caring person, you need to look no further.”
“Ellen! You have done it again. Thank you so much for taking care of our pups. I love when Maya just doesn’t want to leave because she loves the farm. That’s how much they love you. THANKS!”
