Highly-rated overnight sitters - Bennett
“This is Eskimo first time stay at sitter house, instead of doggie hotel. Victor really take good care of him and make sure he feel like home. We have received lots of update and pictures from him during Eskimo stay. Thank you again for take such a good care of Eskimo. We are sure to use his service again. Highly recommended”
“Brittany was fantastic! She communicated clearly throughout the stay and sent lots of photos every day, which we truly appreciated. It really put our minds at ease knowing how our dogs were doing while we were away. Our dogs clearly loved her and settled in with her very quickly.”
“Lindsey and Timothy were excellent with my bulldog. My dog had so much fun with their family. I was always updated and given photos and videos throughout his stay. I was quickly responded to with any questions or concerns. I definitely will be using them again and I know that my dog will be excited to see them again.”
“Colleen watched our dog Bear for a weekend and she is absolutely fantastic. She is kind and caring and Bear really enjoyed the time with her. He was well cared for and she went above and beyond. It was our first time leaving him for an extended period and we had no worries while Bear was in her care. I would 100% recommend her.”
“10 out of 10!! Super accommodating! And super loving to my only child. Lots of pictures and was open to keeping him an extra day due to my fight being canceled. I didn't have to worry about him at all! Cooper will be back! Thank you!!”
“We booked Desiree pretty last minute to board our dog in her home, and we couldn’t be happier! From the beginning, Desiree was super responsive, accommodating, and easy to work with. She kept us up to date on how our girl was doing, and they were clearly having a great time together. I’m not sure Effie wanted to come home! She was clean, happy, and spoiled when we picked her up and we will definitely use Desiree again. 10/10 recommend!”
“Our dog Nethra had a wonderful time at Sharon's house. Sharon was extremely caring and it reflected in the videos that was sent to us since we could see how happy Nethra was. Thanks Sharon!”
“Kat took such great care of Tux! She came home happy and so much less stressed than when she has to stay at a boarder. She sent me pictures of the fun and cuddles they shared. I will definitely rebook for our next weekend trip!”
“Thank you June for taking such great care of my two pups. You made me and them feel at ease as soon as we walked that the door. I especially enjoyed the pics and videos to let me know how they are doing.”
“Kimmi is great! She was really easy to communicate with and flexible. We did a meet & greet in which my dog wasn't totally comfortable with her dogs (this occasionally happens with our dog - not Kimmi's fault!), but Kimmi was not fazed, still had a space for our dog to stay and everything ended up going well. Totally recommended!”
“Melanie was very nice and she did a great job with our dog Star who was very much at home with her!! She messaged us every day and sent us some great pictures of Star!!! It is a great feeling when you are away to know that your dog is well cared for. We would definitely bring Star back to Melanie if we need a dog sitter.”
“Satisfied with boarding service. Jonathan did a great job with keeping informed of my dog throughout the stay. She was very considerate to ensure my dog was able to maintain any type of schedule. Plan to continue using her service for boarding in the future.”
“Angela (and her own little dog and young son) provided a wonderful week for my old, anxious little dog. She kept me posted with her photos and comments - Sandy clearly felt at home and very secure. I will definitely be booking with her whenever we need boarding or day care for Sandy!”
About: Hello! My name is Peyton, and I’m 17 years old. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young and have experience with all kinds, including dogs, horses, pigs, cats, and many more. Growing up around animals has taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to their needs. I’m available full-time throughout the summer and would love the opportunity to care for your pets while making sure all of their wants and needs are met. I’m currently available full-time throughout the summer and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and playtime whenever needed. I have a big area for tons of running and playing time, with plenty of toys and love to be given! Every animal is welcomed here, and guaranteed to be spoiled.
“Another wonderful stay with Angie and her family! I’m so grateful to be able to go away and leave my special needs dog with her and not have to worry!! I know she’s in loving, capable hands. The whole family helps to make my dogs feel comfortable and safe. Five stars!”
“Lisa and Jeff not only took in our sweet little dog and cat, but they made them part of their family for the time we were gone. It made us feel so comfortable leaving them. Lisa sent pictures of both pets, including the dog out for a walk and being snuggled and the cat being very content. We loved the photos! I’ll use Lisa and Jeff again and again ....”
“We love Hannah and her pup Walter! She is great with communication and send us lots of picture of the dogs playing. We know our dog is well loved when he leaves home to head to her house!”

“This was our first time using a sitter, and I must say how happy we are having Courtnie taking care of our baby! Normally, our baby will hide from people, but not with Courtnie. Animals know who is kind and gentle, and Courtnie is. We highly recommend her and look forward to having her for future needs. Thanks Courtnie!”
“Chastity was amazing and I would recommend her highly. She helped us with drop in visits over 3 days on short notice and the dogs loved her. She spent extra time sitting and playing with them making them feel loved. They were definitely in good hands.”
“Ali is simply a lovely human. My dogs took to him immediately. Gus was especially excited to meet his new friend and Ali responded with nothing but patience and understanding. Ali has an energy that is simultaneously enthusiastic and calming. We’re excited to have him back :)”
About: I've always loved cats. I had cats growing up in New York, a house full of cats. My mother was allergic to cats so until she passed I wasn't able to have any cats of my own. But now we have two cats. I watch them when my family's out of town. I feed them breakfast and dinner. I play with them. I pet them. I love on them and most importantly I treat every cat with the upmost respect like they are little people.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Bennett
“We had a great day! Whitney was awesome. She let me run & play with her dogs. She took me for walks. She even let me sit on her lap..., not that I gave her much choice! LOL. Mom said I could come back anytime. I sure hope it's soon!! --- Bronwyn, Rottweiler dog”
“Brooke and her family were great! They clearly took great care of my pup as he was content around her, but worn out and ready to nap by the time we got in the car. She was really flexible and great at communicating. Would recommend and will use again in the future!”
“Britt has taken great care of my Penny puppy this week at daycare! She clearly cares about dogs and provides a fun and enriching environment for them. Penny is high energy, and always comes home happily exhausted.”
“Our energetic sweet dog had a great day with Ro. I felt totally comfortable with her. She seemed like a natural with dogs, had a great backyard, played with our dog during the day. Our dog was loving all over her when we came to pick him up. Ro is great. Can’t recommend her enough.”
About: I am 36 years old and I have had animals my whole life growing up of all different sizes. I love all animals like they are my own. I am a dog owner myself so I can pick up on certain behaviors. I am able to give them medication my dog has allergies and I give him medicine daily. I am prior military with an active security clearance so you can trust me with your home and your beloved family member(dog). They will be well taken care of and have a great time in my care. Animals love unconditionally which is why I love them so dearly. I look forward to meeting your fuzzy four legged companion. I am available at my home nights and weekends. During the day I will come home at lunch to take the dogs outside. They won’t go longer than 4 hours. I will treat your pet like my own. Which is like a king. My dog sleeps in bed with me or on the couch under blankets. Wherever they are most comfortable.
About: One of the best feelings in the world is being greeted by a dog’s wagging tail—a pure expression of happiness, joy, and love that instantly brightens the day. I grew up with dogs, and from an early age, I learned how much they truly complete a home. I always accommodate my clients' animals daily routines, because their comfort comes first. It’s never about my schedule—it’s about maintaining what they know and trust. Just because their owners are away doesn’t mean their routine should change. I love taking pictures, so you'll have great photos of your animals while you are away. This is my full time job. Nice days don’t go to waste!!! Your pet(s) and I will be outside playing, running around, and a walk around the neighborhood (if allowed). I respect every home by keeping it tidy and cleaning up after myself. If you need a good spring clean and organizing, my services are always available: Dust, vacuum, organize, picking up poop, taking the trash out, grabbing the mail, watering plants, picking weeds… you name it, I will do it!
“Tatyana took excellent care of our Rowdy. He was very nervous as we were on a vacation trip to see relatives. When we handed him over to Tatyana for an evening out, he was immediately calm with her. She sent several pictures showing he was doing fine. He even took a nap. She was loving and I would highly recommend her.”

About: I have been a pet sitter for 6 years. I own my own house/dog walking business. I chose to expand my services over to Rover! I work a few hours out of the evening so i have plenty of time to hang out with the doggos i keep and take them out every 4 hours In my home, I have a room specifically for the pups that I keep. When I am home i allow them to roam but when Im away I do not cage them unless the owner recommends it! If you prefer for me to come to your home, I abide by the instructions you leave for me.
About: As a young girl I've always had a fondness for animals. I would beg to have a dog until I finally got one. Pepper. Then later Betsy. I've had guinea pigs and rabbits. A rat and mice. Hamsters and chinchillas. I loved them all. I have been around farm animals quite a bit. I'm in love with horses and could even provide care for farm animals. In high school I started working at the vet clinic that at the time offered boarding services. I did that for a short time. In that time I have dog/house sat for family friends. Now in more recent years I've dog sat and currently work for a boarding business. I have been there a full year now and I love it. It is part time hours and would like something extra that still involves animals. Dog walks and care are not a problem for me. I would love to help anyone with their precious pups. I'm also trying to advance in trade skills and become a dog trainer.
About: I own two dogs myself, so I am very familiar with how to care for your pet. In the past I have also dog-sat for family and friends! I am currently working part-time and would love to babysit your pet for a side gig! Let me know what days and times would work for you, and we’ll see what we can do. I am currently accepting jobs that would consist of me coming to you. I would walk them, feed them, and check on them the times that you needed me to!
About: I have a natural connection with dogs. I have owned dogs over the years, as a child and as an adult. I have been in contact with many breeds and I haven't met a dog that didn't like me or I didn't love. I would care for your pet as if they were my own. I'm reliable and attentive to your pets needs by showering them with love and affection. I have a happy home with many trails for walks and runs. I'm available most of the day and can accomodate most schedules. I currently have a small chiweenie (Dachshund-Chihuahua mix). She is spade and about 3 years old. She is a rescue dog. She is very well tempered and gets along with all dogs, big and small.
“Erika goes the extra mile to be helpful with Remi. Very dependable and has a lot of patience with Remii. I plan on using her again. Thanks for all you have helped to teach my dog. Remi loves her.”

Toward the end of August, I’ll begin substitute teaching, but my availability will still remain flexible outside of school hours. Whether your pet needs daytime visits, overnight care, or weekend attention, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities.

About: I've always had pets since I was a child, and my love for them has grown even more in my adulthood.

About: I grew up on a family farm in Mamers, NC, where caring for animals has always been second nature. After moving back to the area from college, I now work from home, allowing me to provide attentive, personalized care and a flexible schedule for the pets I watch. Before leaving for college, I pet sat for local families through Facebook and built lasting relationships with many of my clients. For one family in particular, I provided in-home care and became their trusted “dog nanny” for over three years. From daily visits and walks to overnight stays and personalized routines, I understand how important consistency and trust are when caring for someone’s furry family member. I visit my family farm daily to help maintain the property, giving dogs in my care the opportunity for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and plenty of enrichment. Whether your pet enjoys adventures or prefers cuddles and quiet time, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. 🤍🐾🌾 Pet care is seamlessly built into my daily routine. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I also visit my family farm daily, so dogs in my care can enjoy supervised outdoor time and extra exercise. Because I’m home most of the day, pets are rarely left alone and are treated like part of the family, with lots of love, structure, and companionship. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly condo community with access to a dog park, where I often take my own Doberman for supervised play and exercise. I enjoy starting the day with morning walks and make sure pets have plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine closely and always prioritize their safety, whether that means leashed walks, supervised outdoor time at my family farm, or a cozy, calm environment indoors. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, secure, and right at home while their family is away.
“Tynisia was not a only professional in her interactions with us, but caring and understanding during our scrambling to ensure she had everything our pups needed during their stay. She was kind enough to turn around after picking up our pups so we could give her an item we forgot. She also took the time to ensure we didn't any questions or concerns when we took our pups for a pre-visit a couple weeks before. While our dogs were with her, Tynisia treated them as if they were her own. We would definitely recommend her to others. Thank you Tynisia!”
“Elizabeth was a great sitter for my dog Myles. She picked him up and dropped him off on time. She sent fun photos of Myles playing with her two sweet dogs. Myles came home happy and tired. So I know he had a blast! I highly recommend Elizabeth to sit your dog! Thanks girl!”
“I could not recommend Taylor more. She took care of our pups for a whole ten days, and they came back happy, healthy, and seemed to have a great time from all the pictures she sent during the stay.”
