“Diego was wonderful watching our dog while we were out of town. He shared photos and videos, and ensured she got lots of fun and playtime. Would definitely consider having Diego dog sit again!”
“Andrea did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Kona. We were away for 17 days and needed a loving family to taker her in rather than a kennel. Her previous reviews all lived up to their marks. Andrea is knowledgeable and attentive to dog personalities and was able to help our girl transition into a good routine with lots of love and exercise. Having our dog sleep in her own bed each night (with her blankie!) made it much easier to be away. I received pictures or text communication almost everyday. I couldn't have been happier and will definitely use Andrea's services again. I highly recommend.”
“Leo was very well cared for while with Martine when he spent two weeks at her house. I got a picture update nearly every day while I was gone, which made it so much easier to leave him. I would highly recommend Martine - she really seems to love and know dogs. Thanks!”
“This is the second time Britanny took care of Fox, and he had a wonderful time again with her and her corgi!! Thanks Britanny for taking such good care of him.”
“We were pleased that Pluto was cared for and safe during the time we were away and did not worry about him. We knew he was in good hands. He had a chance to play with other dogs, get out for walks. Thanks Karisa!”
“Kayleen was so sweet and treated our dogs as if they were hers. She had great communication with us the whole time sending texts and pictures. We would highly recommend her and would love to have her as our sitter again.”
“Brittany was an amazing host to our Gabby. She sent pictures whenever we asked and was very flexible when our flight got delayed by a couple hours. Very kind and sweet and genuinely seemed to enjoy hosting and even let Gabby leave with a new toy! Will definitely book with her again.”
“Mariel and Teresa did an exceptional job watching my dog Ruby for an extended stay! While she is not a runner, it was reassuring that they put an AirTag on her in the case she got lost. They were very communicative and sent both pictures and videos regularly to help me feel connected to my pup while I was away. I would absolutely recommend them because you can feel their warmth and love for animals as soon as you meet them. I will certainly reach out again when in need.”
“Tania was wonderful! Our two senior fur-babies had a great overnight stay. Tania sent photos, took them on walks, and was so gracious to accept our very last minute request. Our pups came back home wore out from a fun-filled time. Thanks, Tania!”
“I’ll definitely use Yanke again! This was my first time using a dog sitter and my pup didnt even look back at me once after dropping him off. She kept me updated with pictures and even paid attention to when he needed his pain medicine and gave it to him. Love her!!”
“We loved our return stay! Lori takes such great care of our pups—whether it’s one night or several, we can truly relax knowing they’re in the best hands. Thank you for being so attentive, patient, and accommodating, even with all three of our goofballs this time!”
“Mel was great with our German Shepherd. Took great care of him, sent photos and check-ins throughout the week, and definitely kept him busier than we do! Would definitely book again!”
“Daniela was a wonderful sitter! She’s so warm and friendly that my dog was instantly at ease upon meeting her. She took great care of my dog, and I appreciated how she sent regular pics and updates throughout my dog’s multiple day stay. Highly recommend!”
“This was our dogs first time boarding with Sloane and everything went smoothly, and we will definitely use her services again. She provided multiple updates and pictures while we were gone and let us know specifics of how Trudy was doing. We really appreciated her specific feedback and timely responses when needed.”
“Xiaoyu was incredibly caring and loving with my kitties. One of them is very shy and skittish and only lets me touch her — not even my husband can. To my surprise, Foxy ended up letting Xiaoyu pet her and even slept in their bed . That says everything. Xiaoyu was very responsive, kept me updated the whole time, and sent pictures regularly, which gave me so much peace of mind. She followed all instructions carefully and treated my cats like her own. I am very grateful ♥️”
“Nicole was a wonderful sitter for our Phoebe. Her home is a great setup for dogs. She communicated regularly with updates and pictures, and was very reassuring about our dog’s adjustment to her environment. Phoebe seemed happy and relaxed in her care.”
“Arden took wonderful care of our senior golden, Charlie, for two weeks while we were out of the country. He got so much love, cuddles, and plenty of tennis ball time. We had absolutely no reservations leaving Charlie with her. He adores her, and we’ve happily used Arden before. She’s a great gal and truly treats our dog like her own. Highly recommend.”

“Ellen is responsive and flexible, working late into the evenings. She did a quick meet and greet, as this was my first time using her services, and my cat seemed to take to her quickly. She took lots of photos of their play and snuggle times, and I know my cat enjoyed the one on one attention while I was out of town. Thanks again!”

She even played with them and sent the cutest photos! It definitely gave us peace of mind while we were away. We will for sure choose Heather again 👍🏼”
“Helena was wonderful as always!! We feel so guilty leaving our 4 cats at home and she goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of while we’re away. Will always rebook with her!!”
“Isabel did a fantastic job with my cat! She did everything that I asked her to do and more, and I know that Venus thoroughly enjoyed her time with Isabel. I cannot recommend her enough. She is responsible, thoughtful, caring, kind, and communicative, everything that I look for in a pet sitter. An easy 5 stars, and I would highly recommend Isabel for your pets!”

“Deanna was amazing with my Maggie! Maggie had an amazing time at her house. This was our first time doing an overnight at someone else’s house so I was a little nervous but Deanna was great and made me feel completely comfortable with leaving Maggie in her care. She let us come over for a meet and greet ahead of time and texted updates throughout the week! Cannot wait to use Deanna again.”
“Sloane is the BEST!! Her updates are detailed with lots of photos, and as an anxious dog mom, I really appreciate that! Cooper has such a great time with her and always comes home tired from all the fun. 10/10, cannot recommend more!”
“Arden is the best! She took us in last minute and was super flexible with my schedule. Pups were happy and seemed to warm up to her immediately. We are from a different state so we didn’t get the chance to meet beforehand but I was confident she’d be a great fit and was correct! Anytime we are in town she will be our go to ☺️”
“Archer had a fantastic day with Brittany! She kept me updated on how he was doing, took him to the dog park, sent pics, was very responsive. Would definitely use again.”

About: I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting since I was 19. I absolutely love dogs, taking them on walks (or runs if needed!), and just giving them all my love. I’m working from home and have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to help out anywhere from once to probably three times a day if you want! I live in a two bedroom townhome with my 8 year old heeler. My dog is very sweet and likes to hang and walk with most dogs but can be shy when meeting a new friend. She is less excited about hyper furry friends but am happy to always do a meet and greet before booking. Also happy to stay at your place so long as I can bring my dog too :)
“Karisa was amazing with our 5 month old lab. He adjusted perfectly fine and she sent updates and pictures. Will absolutely be coming to Karisa again in the near future. Thank you!!”

“Natalie and her pup Otis are the best!! My pup can be nervous in new situations and she was wonderful with him. Otis is sweet and playful and happily welcomed my pup into his home. I got lots of pics and updates! Will be booking with Natalie again!😊”

“What a great experience with Martine and her husband. They obviously made Bryce feel welcomed in their home … as by the second day he went straight to her front door and didn’t look back while I was leaving. Also want to “shout out” her willingness to be a bit flexible with the schedule … (I was meeting a friend locally and wanted to be able to enjoy Raleigh for dinner (which was awesome at The Plate). This pet sitting experience enhanced my visit to Raleigh !!!”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Daniela has been absolutely wonderful with our dog Winston and a huge help to us! You could tell right away how much she cared - she always checked in to see what time frame worked best for us to grab him before his walks, spent time with him in the dog park to play fetch and let him run around with friends, and also walked him around the complex to ensure he got his exercise in.
