“I was anxious to leave my kitties for a long trip, but with Sophia, I very quickly knew they would be well taken care of.

I will definitely be a return customer.”

My cat can be shy around new people, but between the messages, photos and even a video (!) -- I could tell Whiskers was safe even if a bit timid at times.

She very kindly brought in our garbage cans and packages for us, and left a very sweet note when she wrapped up on the final day. Julija was truly lovely and the kitties warmed up to her RIGHT away. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, and will happily be booking her again next time we go out of town!”

About: I love dogs and would be honored to take care of your baby! My passion began when I volunteered at the SFSPCA animal shelter in San Francisco, where I walked dogs weekly and received training to take care of them. Recently, I have had the privilege of sitting the furry babies of people like you! If you are away for a trip, I would be happy to watch over your puppy. I graduated from UChicago two years ago and am a software engineer by trade. I am in a career transition so I am usually either home or in a nearby cafe, and have plenty of time to take care your puppy. It's been great to have the company of a furry companion while I explore my next career move. I always look forward to meeting and spending time with dogs! I'm available to take care of your pup all day! My schedule is flexible and I do not have other obligations. I love to spend my time giving dogs attention! I do not own any other pets and only sit one animal at a time. I live in a dog-friendly doorman building and have a rooftop with a grassy area that your dog can play at.
“Antoniette was really good and took care of our puppy very well. She sent us some pictures to see how Trufa (our dog) was doing. Trufa was calm and happy to stay with her. Also, Antoniette was very flexible and friendly. Thanks for your service! Really appreciated”

Kaisa is 60 lbs so I was worried about her pulling too much on the walk but Siddhi is very familiar with all types of dogs and this was no problem for her. Great service overall!”
About: I am a NY State certified Mandated Reporter with extensive training in child and animal safety procedures. I have worked as a volunteer dog walker and am a lifelong animal lover of all kinds and temperaments. I am patient and gentle with creatures, and I took care of my family dog, a terrier named Pumpkin, for four years. I'm a student in an arts program, but could make time in every one of my days for animals. Being around pets of all kinds fulfills me. My apartment is on the smaller side, so I am most able to care for small to medium dogs in my own home. In your home, your pet will never be bored. I have experience in childcare, and know how to calm and brighten a pet's day with my demeanor.
“Sophia was amazing with Loxi while I was away. She would come greet her every night and play with her as she got her ready for her walk. My doggie who is normally pretty sad when I am away was playful and happy the whole time in large part due to Sophia!!! :) From the meet and greet to the end of my vacation, Sophia put in so much care, attention and love into caring for my doggy I cannot express how much I appreciate it and and so grateful so her to have been cared for so well while I was away. I would definitely have Sophia walk my doggy again anytime!!”

About: Hi! I’m Esther - a lifelong animal lover who’s raised dogs from high school through adulthood and now has a pup of my own. I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby with someone new, and I care for every pet with the same patience, gentleness, and consistency I give my own. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and little quirks - from shy rescues to playful puppies to senior sweethearts who need extra support. I’m attentive to animal body language and emotional needs, and I always take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and understood. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I can reliably drop in throughout the day - rain or shine - to keep your pet’s routine consistent. Whether your fur baby needs walks, meals, medication, enrichment time, or just extra cuddles, I’m happy to tailor my care to exactly what they need. Safety and cleanliness are extremely important to me. I always refresh water bowls, follow feeding routines closely, and make sure everything is secure before I leave. If you let me know where your trash can and cleaning supplies are, I’m more than happy to clean up any little “oopsies.” I can also vacuum or sweep up any litter that adventurous kitties might track around - whatever helps keep your home tidy and your pets comfortable. I also keep a close eye on pets at all times and send updates, photos, or videos so you always feel connected and at ease while you’re away.
