“Shiloh enjoyed her stay with Ms.Jessica and her family . Very informative & kept me updated with Shiloh frequently. Has a very beautiful home & big backyard for your pup to play . An vacation from home to her lol .”
“My lil’ Enastasia tends to be quite shy & timid with others, so I don’t think I can leave a better review than to say the second I pulled up in front of Brineydi’s house for their second visit, Enastasia jumped up the (closed) window, wagging her tail, and crying in excitement. She couldn’t wait to come back to what’s clearly a safe, loving & fun environment!”
“Monica has watched our dog several times. Each time we have been very pleased with her care. Consequently our 5 star rating is for consistent wonderful care over multiple stays.”
“Gabriela is one of Barkley’s favorite sitters. She loves the whole family and gets so excited when I drop her off. It’s a great comfort when someone loves your dog as much as you do. I never worry when Barkley is there. I’ve already scheduled more time with her because of that.”
“Sam and her daughter took care of our Bernese Mountain dog for three weeks while we were gone over the summer. She was easy to schedule with, and responsive when we checked in to see how things were going. She was thoughtful about introducing our dog to her dog (as well as her cats). Our dog came home happy! I would recommend Sam if you are looking for a dog sitter!”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy! I had a Golden Retriever for five and a half years who took daily medication, so I’m comfortable following specific routines and medication instructions. I’ve also fostered two dogs through rescue organizations, both of whom were successfully adopted. I’ve cared for four dogs through TrustedHousesitters and received 5-star reviews, and I’m the trusted dog sitter for family and friends. These experiences have given me the opportunity to care for dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work remotely full-time with a flexible schedule, giving me plenty of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s routine. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and will work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and your schedule. I live on my own with no other pets, so your pup will have my full attention! While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, there are plenty of grassy areas and sidewalks throughout my dog-friendly neighborhood that are perfect for walks and exploring. There are also plenty of friendly neighborhood dogs for pups who enjoy socializing, while everyone is respectful of dogs who prefer to have their own space. I’m happy to follow your pup’s comfort level and routine!
“John was great! John was very thoughtful to my puppies’ needs. They loved their stay and got along with their new buddy Goose. I am almost afraid to write a too good of a review that my next booking with John might be harder to get because he does such a great job.”
“Zyiana was great! She was so flexible to accommodate my travel times. She sent great pics and videos during updates giving me great peace of mind while I was away.”
“Brittany was so sweet with my mini dachshund, and he loved playing with her pups. She sent regular photos/videos and was quick to respond. I’m glad to have a reliable dog sitter I’ll be able to use in the future.”
“First of, LyLy was available to watch Jazzy at the last minute. I needed a sitter, reached out to LyLy and she was watching Jazzy in less then 24 hours. This was Jazzy's first time being away from me and I’ll admit, I was a bit nervous at first leaving her for the weekend, but LyLy quickly put my mind at ease. She made sure to send regular videos and photos, which made all the difference. Seeing Jazzy safe and well-cared-for allowed me to relax. I’m truly grateful for LyLy’s attentiveness and care—highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!"”
“April was awesome with Harley! She sent many updates and photos. Harley looked, and was, relaxed and comfortable. Harley has Myasthenia Gravis and has a specific medication and food schedule, and April kept to the schedule perfectly. I highly recommend April to care for your furbaby!”
“Jeff and family took great care of our girl while we went away for our wedding and honeymoon. He kept us updated with photos throughout the trip and even face timed with us so we could say hi to her. If ever have to go away again we will definitely book him. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches and anyone should feel lucky to use his services. Thank you Jeff and your household for taking such great care of Nymeria!”
“This is my first time leaving my dog Cupcake with a sitter, and Jia is excellent. She communicates regularly and sends photos and videos. Cupcake had a great time. I definitely recommend Jia.”
“Katherine was AMAZING! I had a relatively last-minute boarding request (and am already a bit nervous about boarding my girl Millie), but Katherine responded quickly and we scheduled a quick meet and greet within a couple of days. And she was the absolute best! She kept me updated with lots of pictures and was incredibly responsive during my entire trip. I could not possibly recommend her more highly.”
“Krystal is amazing, she took care of my puppy really well and gave him plenty of love, Even though he was misbehaving, she showed patience with him. 100% recommend her and will be using her again in the future!!!”
“Ari was amazing. He has such a genuine love and understanding of animals, there is an immediate connection. I know our dog is eager to go back to spend more time with this amazing person!”

About: I have experience caring for cats with different personalities, comfort levels, and routines. I focus a lot on patience, gentleness, and letting each cat decide how quickly they want to warm up to me. I know some cats want attention right away, while others need more space and time before they feel comfortable. I have two cats of my own, Alleria and Vesemir, so I’m very familiar with daily feeding, litter box care, brushing and grooming, playtime, and keeping an eye out for changes in behavior or health. I also understand how important routine can be for cats, especially when their owners are away. My background in special education has also made me very patient and observant. I pay attention to body language and small changes in behavior, and I’m comfortable adjusting my approach based on what an individual cat needs. My goal is always to make them feel safe, respected, and cared for rather than forcing interaction.
About: I have 4 dogs of my own and take care of many family members dogs. I work at a dog daycare I deal with animals all the time. I am comfortable working with cats i don't know too many people with cats but, I have a great bond with my uncles two cats.
About: I have extensive experience caring for cats and understand that earning a cat’s trust is an honor—and sometimes a negotiation! 😸 I’m comfortable handling all the essentials, including feeding, fresh water, grooming, litter box maintenance, medication, and plenty of playtime and affection. I know how important it is for cats to maintain their normal routines while their humans are away. I make every effort to keep their schedule consistent and their environment comfortable, calm, and stress-free. Whether your cat is an outgoing social butterfly who wants all the attention or a shy little introvert who prefers to observe from a safe distance, I’m happy to let them set the pace. I’m also familiar with feline behavior and pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or behavior that could indicate something isn’t quite right. If I notice anything unusual, I’ll make sure it receives prompt attention and keep you informed. Most importantly, I want every cat in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether we’re having a serious play session, enjoying some quality lap time, administering medication, or simply sitting together while they pretend they don’t need me, I’m there to make sure they’re happy and well cared for. Because when you’re caring for a cat, you’re not just pet sitting—you’re temporarily working for a very small, very furry boss. 🐾
“Chris was wonderful with my cat Fenrys - he sent great updates daily, and went about making friends at Fenrys’s pace. I felt so secure leaving him in Chris’s care!”
“Davene is a wonderful cat sitter! She just took care of my three kitties over Thanksgiving. I appreciated how quick she was to respond to my request and her offer of an initial visit to meet the cats and get our instructions in person. She was very gentle and sweet with the kitties, and I could tell that they really liked her. Davene followed all instructions and left the place neat and clean. I highly recommend her and look forward to booking with her again.”

About: Mommy of 6 kitties at home in varying ages 🐈🐈⬛💗 (2yrs to 10yrs) I’ve personally cared for cats through every stage of life and many different health needs, from raising one of my own as a neonate with around the clock bottle feeding and litter training, to supporting my childhood cat through end of life care. I’m experienced with administering medications (typically liquid via treats), some post-surgical care, eye infections, epilepsy management, allergy sensitivities, and more. Whether your cat is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet cuddle and companionship, I’m always happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. 🫶🏼 I’m a very clean and detail oriented person, so you can trust me to keep litter boxes, food areas, and any cat related messes tidy.

About: In 2025 I cared for my brothers cat for the first time. She stayed with me for 4 months. During this time I learned how smart, energetic, and mischievous cats are. I respect cats and their territory. With this being said I understand how stressful new people and sents can be for cats. This is why when working with them I am patient and observative. I found that explaining what I am doing in their space helps. whether it's clearing the litter box or getting them food and water. I acknowledge their presence, and if playful, I will play with them if uncomfortable. I will give them their space. I will allow them the time and distance they need to decision to approach me.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for years and have experience with cats of all personalities, from playful kittens to more independent or shy cats. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure each cat feels comfortable in their own environment. I can handle feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving them the attention they need while you’re away. I also have experience working with pet owners through Rover, so I understand the importance of communication, updates, and making sure you feel at ease while your pet is in my care.

About: I have ten years of experience working with seniors in the past and I have 3 amazing, older kids that love to care for animals. I took some time off of work to help homeschool my kids. But my kids have a pretty easy schedule. Therefore, I have a lot of time to care for animals. I have a pregnant neighbor so she usually needs help with her dog. I like to give them 2-3 walks a day, bathe them if needed, feed them dog food with lots of nutrients, and make sure they are hydrated. My clients dog is pretty chill so I usually just pet him and feed him. Pets fit into my daily routine because I have a pretty open schedule and have a lot of time to care for the dogs which I’m caring for I have a fenced in yard and everything that can cause harm is door away. I also have smoke detectors, carbon dioxide, and a fire extinguisher.
“That backyard! My baby works for door dash and Uber when he rides with me sometimes and he needs to stretch and play. So seeing Artesha 's backyard full of toys, a lil pool, and a big enough space for him to play was a bonus. But nothing matters more to me than for him to get to socialize with other fur babies. Artesha has a ZOO lol jp! I fell in love with all of her fur babies putting me at ease while I worked. They are very friendly and very sweet. Artesha accommodated all of my requests and last minute request. Provides communication and pictures. Thank you for opening up your home to Quwwa and I.”

“I needed a last minute sitter for a few hours and was coming from out of town. Bri was fantastic! She was very prompt in responding to my initial outreach (late evening the night before) and was very easy to work with. She took care of Miley and shared unprompted updates of Miley and her dog Piggy playing - which was very much appreciated! I would recommend working with Bri!”
“Tiffany was amazing. We got stuck at our event and she was very patient and accommodating with our late pickup. And of course, our Molly was very happy and in great spirits after her time with Tiffany. Highly recommend!”

About: Northeast Philly (Lexington Park) a minute off US 1 at Rhawn and 8 minutes off I-95 (Academy or Cottmon exits) I am a mature women who will give your dog close to the same tender love and care (TLC) that you would give them at home. I enjoy walking the dogs in my pet-friendly neighborhood that borders a 1600 acre park. It is a quiet area, with little through traffic, and it is pretty safe. I have full pane security doors that most of the dogs that stay with me really enjoy looking through regularly as well as glass sliders off the rear of my basement. Most of the furry friends that stay with me like to climb up next to me on my chair and a half in the afternoon and during the evening hours while I watch TV and get their belly tickles. My home and grounds are clean and well kept and I have nice neighbors. Meeting you and your dog is a must before I accept a reservation. I expect that your dog is up to date on their shots, has their monthly flea treatment, and is not aggressive toward me, other humans, or the other doggies I'm hosting. I am very careful about having my guest dogs around any other dogs. I have no fenced yard so your little one is taken for several sniffy tours each day in my pleasant, safe, pet friendly neighborhood and they will spend some time on my doggy runs under my watchful eye or in one of my exterior 5'x5' dog pens. About this sitter: I'm a youthful senior who enjoys the companionship of a dog, but doesn't have a dog of my own anymore. I offer a safe, loving, comfortable place for your small, well behaved darling to stay while you enjoy some time away. Why I love dog sitting Who wouldn't enjoy the unconditional love they get from a dog. Whether it's the joy of their little paws wanting to be picked up and cuddled or watching them crurl up into their beds exhausted from a long day, to those in between times watching them explore on their walks and checking out the other dogs walking by, they are just a joy to have around. About my yard I do not have a fenced yard. Your dog is taken on several walks each day and I spend time sitting outside with them while they are on the doggie run. My experience administering medication I've administered eye drops, ear drops, and oral medications. I do not give injections. I’m retired, so there’s plenty of time to sit together and cuddle. I enjoy taking the dogs for leisurely walks and sniffy tours in the neighborhood. They are taken out every few hours on my property. I do not do boarding during the winter anymore. I do not have a fenced yard, but a fabulous doggie run and (2) large crates outside. Your pet is not left outside unsupervised, but will be under my watchful eye.
“Pat was very patient with both Sammy and myself, especially in trying to find his apartment! I had a very stressful day and kept getting confused. Sammy was a rescue with a horrible background and Pat was very careful handling him. Pat took him out for walks several times and Sammy loved being out on his patio! Pat sent several updates and pictures of Sammy during the day. Will be using him every time I go into Philly for my medical appointments.”
“Milissa was super responsive and accommodating for our last minute request! Our pup was kept company the entire day with walk and lounge updates provided as well. Very convenient option for anyone in the NE area.”
About: NEW: The Chopperoni now accepts daycare guests! NEW: The Chopperoni now accepts dog walking requests! Welcome to The Chopperoni, a doggy homestay hotel located near Fishtown in Philly! ✨ Hello, dear humans and pupperonis! My name is Kira and I'm the head Chopperone at the Chopperoni, named so after my weiner boy Chopper. I'm a semi-retired programmer who works in app development and consulting. I work from home about 0-10 hours a week, which allows me to pursue pet-sitting as a full-time hobby! All profits go towards new toys, treats, and supplies. We welcome all pups 40lbs and under, and here's a list of what you can expect from your baby's stay with us: • 3-4 daily walks (more if needed) • Dogs welcome on all furniture and sleep in bed with me • 10-20 photos PER DAY • Playtime tailored to your dog's preferences and energy level • Plenty of cuddles and affection for dogs who enjoy them • Respectful space for independent, shy, or low-contact dogs • Playmates for maximum socialization! There are 3 resident dogs and I host up to 3 boarders at a time. We are either napping, going for a walk, playing, or sleeping together 🤣🤣🤣 • Meet and Greets are required to ensure all dogs get along! As a devoted dog mom, I know how hard it can be to leave your babies in someone else's care. But I'm here to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where both you and your pup can feel at ease. Thanks to being semi-retired, I'm pretty much around all day every day and can give the pups plenty of attention and companionship. They will enjoy 3–4 walks daily (or more if needed), along with dedicated playtime tailored to their individual personalities, energy levels, and preferences. All dogs are welcome on the furniture and are free to sleep in bed with me if they choose. Whether your pup loves to play, cuddle, explore, or simply relax, I'll do my best to make them feel right at home! I've had two rescue dogs of my own since 2021, both of whom I adopted when they were 5–6 years old. My experience with dog care goes back even further, helping care for a family member's senior dog and was heavily involved in their daily routine. I'm especially experienced with senior dogs, administering medications, basic grooming, and caring for pups who may be anxious, independent, mildly grumpy, or simply prefer having their own space respected. At the same time, I'm active and energetic enough to keep up with younger dogs and those young at heart. I'm happy to match their energy level and make sure they get the physical and mental stimulation they need. I am home pretty much all the time! I have so much free time I can literally give the dogs my attention all day haha I only leave for 1-2 hours at a time to run my errands. My two-story apartment has 3 friendly dogs (1 tiny, 1 small, 1 medium) and all dogs are allowed to roam freely. The basement where my bedroom is has a big living space that's perfect for playing. There's a grassy patch of land across the street where we take the dogs for potty breaks, and we usually take the dogs to Norris Square for their walks.
“Tania did a great job watching my dog Bosco! We booked on very short notice and were very happy that she can watch him while we went to sesame place on the way home from a trip.”

About: I've taken care of various cats and dogs on and off for around 6 years. As my work is freeelance I have plenty of flexibility for your baby throughout the day. I currently work as a mobile freelancer, so my attention can be given throughout the day and night to your pet(s). Most scheduled care can be accomodated. I've experience sitting over a variety of pets in various houses. Most anything from rabbits to fish to furry friends is okay with me.
“Michael was wonderful with my dog Shelby. He showed up on time each day, and was gentle and patient with her. (She was reluctant to go out sometimes). He communicated with me each day about how it went. Shelby acquainted herself quickly with Michael and started to look forward to her walks. I would highly recommend him. He's definitely a dog lover and is responsible and communicative. Thanks Mike!”
About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have always helped out taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs. When it comes to taking full care of other people’s pets I’ve done a couple of pet sitting jobs in the past year or so. While home from college I have free time almost everyday for most of the day! While I may need to go home to check on my own pets or family I can usually spend most of the day with your pets. I’m a bit of a night owl so morning can be rough but I thrive in the late morning and afternoon! I can’t have pets come over to my house because of my cats, but when at your house I can always be there for your animal! Whether they are playing or just want company while lounging at home!
About: My extensive experience in pet care is founded on a deeply rooted love for animals and a commitment to providing top-notch service. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach tailored to each pet's unique needs and personality. Whether it's walking a puppy, or providing gentle care for senior pets, I have a versatile skill set that ensures every furry friend in my care receives the attention and support they deserve. My ability to adapt to various situations and my keen understanding of animal behavior enable me to create a safe and comfortable environment where pets thrive. Don't think I just stop at Cats and Dogs! I was a professional pet sitter for years and have watched and cared for Guinea Pigs, Hamsters, Fishes and a Pigeon (yes even a pigeon). I currently have 8 year old cat Begbie (gorgeous, grumpy and full of sass) 2 1/2 year old cat Dexter (always has his tuxedo on ready to crash events and full of spice) 3 guinea pigs (Norman, Joel and Donnie), they currently reside in their own room (with fences around the outlets), where they have plenty of room to forage, hide, run, whatever their tiny hearts desire. In essence, my passion for pets, sets me apart as a pet sitter who goes above and beyond to exceed expectations and provide peace of mind to pet owners. One of the biggest perks of having a flexible schedule right now? I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I currently have very flexible daytime/nighttime availability, which means I can accommodate a variety of pet-sitting needs, including drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I’m also able to spend extra time with pets who need a little more attention or simply don’t enjoy being left alone for long periods. Need someone to stop by during the day? I’m your person! Have a pet who needs multiple visits? Let’s talk! Have a senior pet who needs a little extra TLC? Absolutely! Have a furry friend who thinks a 20-minute visit is simply unacceptable? I understand their demands. 😂 Because my schedule is flexible, I’m happy to work with you to create a routine that keeps your pets comfortable and maintains as much of their normal schedule as possible. Your schedule may be busy. Mine is currently wide open—and your pets are more than welcome to fill it! 🐶🐱🐹🐦 Availability varies by day and booking, so please reach out and let’s see what works best for you and your pets. Whether I’m caring for your pet in their home or caring for my own in our home, my number-one priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and completely spoiled—in the best possible way! I believe keeping their routine as normal as possible is key. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, litter box care, playtime, and any special routines your pet has. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship because I know pets can miss their humans just as much as humans miss them. I pay close attention to behavior and look for anything unusual, such as changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or mood. If something doesn’t seem right, I’ll let you know promptly. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own—clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I have experience with cats and small animals and understand that every pet has a different comfort level. Some want to play, some want cuddles, some want to explore, and some would prefer to stare at me from across the room while silently judging my life choices. I respect all of these personalities! 😂 Most importantly, I don’t believe pet sitting is simply checking a box on a to-do list. It’s about building trust, providing companionship, following your pet’s routine, and making sure they feel happy and secure while you’re away. You enjoy your time away. I’ll handle the treats, belly rubs, zoomies, and occasional feline attitude. 🐾
“This was my first time using Rover, Alex has been super helpful when we needed a dog walker the most with a new baby on the way.

I started dog sitting about 3 years ago and have experience with in-home visits for scheduled feedings, walks, and overnight stays. I’ve also welcomed dogs into my home for a few days at a time. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, bathing, and administering medication. Your pup will be cared for like family 🤍 I currently work part-time and attend school full-time, with three completely free days each week. However I am flexible and I plan my schedule carefully to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I make sure feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins are always a priority in my routine. Making sure pets are safe, comfortable, and happy is always my top priority. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I carefully follow all care instructions and stick to their usual routines. I have a large, fenced-in backyard with plenty of space for safe playtime and zoomies! I maintain a clean, secure environment and treat every pet like my own so they feel loved and at ease. 🐾🤍

About: As the proud owner of a sweet, Chocolate Lab named Charlie Brown, I know firsthand that our animals aren’t “just pets”—they’re family! I offer professional, reliable drop-in visits and walks tailored specifically to your dog's unique energy levels and safety requirements. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles or whatever your pet loves most to make their day extra special. I’m happy to follow their usual routine and take the time to make them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I’ve always loved dogs and truly enjoy being around them. In fact, even when I’m on vacation, I find myself looking for ways to spend time with dogs! On my last vacation, I visited a local shelter and ended up taking one of the dogs out for the day—just because I wanted to give them some extra love, attention, and a fun break from the kennel and it was so rewarding. I genuinely love dogs! I’m also a cat lover and happy to care for your cats, too! I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, attention, and of course plenty of love while you’re away. I’ve spent the past 20 years caring for pets as an adult and have had cats and dogs throughout my entire life. I’d love to give your pets that same love and attention I give mine, while they’re in my care. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate both recurring and occasional walks or drop-in visits. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s routine whenever possible. **If you do not see open availability on a particular date for which you would like to request my services, please message me and I will let you know if I am available to accommodate your pet's needs** I want your pet to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. During drop-in visits, I’ll give them plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, and companionship. For walks, I’ll make sure they get safe, enjoyable exercise at their own pace. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you leave, and I’ll always treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. //What a Premium Visit with Me Includes: * Safety-First Leash Manners: Attentive handling to ensure no slipping collars, harnesses or reactive encounters on walks. * Real-Time Digital Tracking: You will receive detailed Rover Cards with GPS walk routes, exact potty logs, and multiple high-quality photos during every visit. * Home Security Assurance: Diligent care taken with your home's locking mechanisms, alarm systems, and respect of your home. * Custom Routines: Strict adherence to your pet's precise feeding, requests & timelines.
“Amy has been a blessing. Our Santi has anxiety and generally takes quite a while to warm up to people. Finding a walker/sitter has been a challenge. When Amy came for a meet and greet Santi barked only a couple times before deciding Amy is her new BFF! I was worried she might change her attitude when Amy came to walk her. Amazingly, so far it's been great! Amy is a dog whisperer. I feel completely at ease know Amy will be staying with Santi when I travel for business. Thank you so much, Amy! We appreciate you tremendously.”
“You couldn't ask for more in a dog walker! Justin is reliable on time and is a true dog lover I used Justin to walk my 5 yr old Greyhound He was awesome with her! Will definitely book with Justin again”

“Leanne and her husband were great! This was our first time using Rover. We were worried our dog would be anxious but Lilah looked like she had a great time. They were very friendly from the start and kept our pup active with multiple walks and play time. She also sent me daily pictures and updates while away on vacation. We 100% would request to have them watch Lilah again.”
“Hali and her family were the absolute best in caring for my Josie. Josie was in love with the kids and slept with the boys-which made her stay. Hali was responsive to my inquiries and kept me updated on Ms. Josie. I will definitely book with Hali again. It was wonderful to have such peace of mind knowing Josie was being loved on and taken care of while I was gone. Highly recommend.”
“Gabriela is one of Barkley’s favorite sitters. She loves the whole family and gets so excited when I drop her off. It’s a great comfort when someone loves your dog as much as you do. I never worry when Barkley is there. I’ve already scheduled more time with her because of that.”
“Sam and her daughter took care of our Bernese Mountain dog for three weeks while we were gone over the summer. She was easy to schedule with, and responsive when we checked in to see how things were going. She was thoughtful about introducing our dog to her dog (as well as her cats). Our dog came home happy! I would recommend Sam if you are looking for a dog sitter!”
“Marisa was so great! I felt completely at ease while i was away knowing Snickers was well taken care of. Marisa sent pictures everyday and was easy to contact. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her. Thanks Marisa!”
“First of, LyLy was available to watch Jazzy at the last minute. I needed a sitter, reached out to LyLy and she was watching Jazzy in less then 24 hours. This was Jazzy's first time being away from me and I’ll admit, I was a bit nervous at first leaving her for the weekend, but LyLy quickly put my mind at ease. She made sure to send regular videos and photos, which made all the difference. Seeing Jazzy safe and well-cared-for allowed me to relax. I’m truly grateful for LyLy’s attentiveness and care—highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!"”
“When my family goes on vacation, my dog is on vacation at Kathryn’s with her dog Rooney. I’m always getting videos and photos sent daily with updates. Kathryn is always polite, flexible and responsive.”
“As always our pup had an amazing time with Kerry! She always comes back so happy and relaxed after spending time with her. And we appreciate all the updates and photos that Kerry provides. Will always book with her when possible :)”
“Shakira is always great with my Macy girl! She has watched her several times for me now. I highly recommend her. She sends lots of updates & follows all of your pet care instructions.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I grew up caring for dogs of all ages and sizes.. from tiny puppies to beloved senior dogs, and everything in between. ❤️ Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every animal in my care like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some extra attention while you’re away, a bath and some TLC, or simply a reliable friend to keep them company, I’d love to help! 🐶🐾 Your pets’ happiness, safety, and comfort are always my top priority. ❤️ I am currently a stay at home Mom so I am home daily, mostly all day. We enjoy taking walks and spending lots of time outside! We have pleanty of chew toys, balls, and frizbees!! I have a fenced in gass yard, lots of space to run around freely. Our animals are aloud on couches, so yours will be too!
“We had a great experience. Iggy, was very welcomed by the other dogs. Joseph did take pictures and some videos of Iggy. Very happy for his care. I can count on Joseph again the next time.”
“Samantha was very hospitable with my Oshi. He was there 2 nights and Samantha seemed very apt to handle a skittish dog. I was apprehensive in leaving him at her home because she had a young son, but there were no issues that she communicated. However, the biggest concern I had was the heavy cigarette smoke in her house and the smell of which clinging to both Oshi’s and his bag of things left there when I picked him up.”
“John was very communicative and responsive from start to finish and Twain had a nice time. Definitely helped the human side of the separation anxiety during a last minute trip. Lots of photos and updates and was great when Twain lost something at the house to drop it off. Thanks, John!”
“Chelsea was very responsive and took great care of my dog while I was out of town. She sent pics and followed all instructions. My dog felt comfortable with her and I would not hesitate to book again. Thanks!”
“Danielle was great with my reactive senior dog while I was out of town. This was my first time leaving him for an extended period of time, but I felt comfortable that he was in good hands. She sent daily updates and paid close attention to his care instructions, which included daily medications. I would definitely rebook with her for future trips.”
“I would like to just say thank you. This was my first time boarding my son dog and was anxious beyond words. She made sure my pup was loved and cared for. I was kept updated daily and some of the pictures she took will be kept forever that’s how happy he was. Tofu came home very content and healthy. Kanade went above and beyond with my pup and I am beyond grateful.”
