“Juliana was truly a godsend, I can’t imagine leaving Milton with anyone else, she took amazing care of him, sent us photos and updates everyday and truly made it feel like he was staying with extended family ❤️ she treated him like one of her own dogs and we will absolutely be using her for all of our future trips!”

“Dana is an amazing sitter! My boys love staying at her place, they have lots of fun playing in her yard. She’s sweet and I trust her with my boys care. Thanks again Dana! ✨💛”

“George was fabulous with Cannoli! He was super responsive and sent me adorable photos of my baby throughout the stay. Cannoli enjoyed playing with George’s dogs who are also sweet and lovable! Would definitely book with George again!”

“Alex and her family were very welcoming. I like that they did a meet and greet just to ensure that my dog would be a good fit for them to take care of. My dog was very excited to be with them and they took great care of him. I received updates and pictures during his stay. I am grateful to them to be able to enjoy my vacation and know that my precious Goose was in great hands. I am appreciative and grateful for such wonderful service.”


“Zenith cared for my dog from February 19–22, and I am so grateful for her. From the start, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She sent sweet updates, photos, and videos that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear she treated him with genuine love and care, just like I would. I never once worried while I was away. I would happily book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pup.”

“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”

“Patty was extremely thoughtful and sweet to my senior dog for a week stay. I didn't have to worry at all, and he came back nice and tired and happy. He even made a doggie friend during his stay! Plus, she sent me some really great photos of him.”

“Carly was fantastic. She watched my dog, Griffey, over Memorial Day Weekend and I was very satisfied with the experience. Carly was proactive with sending updates every day throughout the stay, so I always knew how Griffey was doing. It was a great environment for Griffey - her two dogs provided the companionship, socialization, and play that he would not typically have otherwise, and the hikes Carly took him on gave him plenty of exercise. Carly was a great sitter and it was clear that she genuinely cared for Griffey's well-being. I would definitely return as a customer if Griffey needs a sitter in the future.”


“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”

“Tony was great with my two doggies Molly and Mochi. He was also very communicative and sent me daily updates. I love that he sent me pictures and videos throughout the day so I could see that my doggies were happy and enjoying backyard time with Tony, Minnie, Diamond, Roxie and Charlie.”


“Tamikia is so kind and dependable. And my dog seriously did not want to leave when I came to pick her up. I got photos and videos every day, and Tamikia was available before my trip to do a meet and greet at her house. My dog has dietary issues and sometimes comes home with an upset stomach when she is boarded with someone who has dogs and/or cats because of getting into someone else's food but that was not the case this time. I am going to book with Tamikia for my next trip!”

“We can’t thank you all enough for taking such good care of Candy❤️ And for being so understanding of our circumstances It is a huge weight off our hearts to know candy has a home away from home in the future Thanks again Francine, Heidi and all”

“Absolutely amazing from start to finish! She took the time to do a meet and greet to meet our goldendoodle peaches. Asked questions about how we were transitioning her kibble and gave loving care to our puppy while we were away at work. Her reports are detailed with videos and pictures of all the fun they had and she even offered to clean my floors when they got dirty from the salt on our sidewalk from the snow storm we had last week. You will not regret booking her!”

“Super communicative and very sweet to talk with!! Updated daily with pictures and made effort to engage with both of my cats! My cats seemed comfortable with her and I will definitely utilize her again.”

“Meghan checked in on my kitten and I am a first timer here. From start to finish, she was a pro. She sent me photos of my kitten corresponded with me and showed her love. Definitely using this again and highly recommend Meghan!”


“Rachel was super easy to book with and confirmed within minutes. We arranged to have her over beforehand to meet Lucy and see our home. This made us feel SO much more comfortable leaving our sweet girl. Rachel's check-ins while we were gone were informative and so fun to read. Our cat often hides with new faces & visitors, but Rachel's magical presence must've made Lucy know she was in good hands and not to hide. We plan to book with Rachel again and cannot recommend her enough!”

“Juliana did an excellent job watching our two kittens, and we were especially grateful that she was available during the holidays. When they had the zoomies and somehow managed to disconnect the internet while we were away, she handled it right away and even remembered to plug the router back in without any issues. She was also great about taking care of any other requests we had. Most importantly, she was really sweet and attentive with our girls, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. We would absolutely hire her again in the future.”


“We can’t say enough how much we appreciate Breanna’s visit summary and photos! We get so much insight about how our cats are doing, and our cats warm up so quick to her, we know they’re well taken care off while we’re away. Thanks as always Breanna!!!”
“Tammy was a great sitter for our cat Oliver. He seemed to really love his time with her. We will definitely be using Tammy again the next time we are away. Thank you Tammy!”


“Paz is so great! During our meet & greet she was super thorough, took great notes, and asked great questions. I knew my diabetic cat was in good hands with her. Will be booking her again!”


About: I’ve done drop in visits and boarding for cats that need an extra eye out or just making sure they are safe and healthy! Played with those who needed extra exercise and cuddled with those that just wanted to sleep! I’ve also administered medications, cleaned out litter box, and feed/change water bowls! I can do whatever your cat’s needs are!
“Caroline went above and beyond for us when our vacation turned tragic with the sudden illness and passing of my grandmother-in-law that required multiple changes of plans to accommodate the changing situation. She was extremely flexible when our vet informed us that she recommends daily visits rather than every two days after a behavioural checkup right before our trip. Then, there was Grandma’s situation, where Caroline quickly accommodated adding one more day, and then, as the situation progressed, went to great lengths to ensure we were covered no matter what for an additional 3 days. Not only that, but she gave Lucy plenty of love and ensured she was well taken-care-of. To top it all off, she also took the cutest photos and brought in our packages. House was super clean when we got back. We’ll definitely be using her again”


About: I am a lifelong cat lover with over 30 of experience caring for our feline friends. I understand that each cat has its own unique personality and needs, and I’m dedicated to providing the love and attention your kitty deserves while you’re away. I am comfortable with all ages of cats from neonatal to more seasoned and respect what a cat is saying with their body language. I love to play or snuggle or even sit quietly with your furry friend.
“Thor told me how happy he was to have a daily visit from Kai and Devon. He especially enjoyed the special wet food treat and expects that to continue. Thank you Kai and Devon for keeping my fur baby happy.”

About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. My journey started with pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family in middle school and grew to volunteering at local animal shelters and working in a boarding kennel to currently working as a vet assistant while at school, pursing a pre-veterinary science degree, giving me experience with animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. At home I have a 14 year old beagle/boston terrier named Pepper who I just adore. I cannot wait to share my experience and love for animals with your pets while you are away :) As am currently home from school for the summer, my schedule is very open to care for your pets, so I am sure we would be able to work something out. I cannot wait to spend my summer caring for new furry friends!! I understand that it can be strange for our pets when a new person comes in the house, so I encourage owners to reach out to schedule a meet and greet so I can meet your four legged friends before you are gone, making the process less stressful for everyone involved.

“Nicole is the best!!! We were a little nervous to try Rover for the first time with our two cats, one of which requires daily medication. She was so responsive and loving for our kitties!!! She made the entire experience stress free. We can’t wait to work with her again!”

“I highly, highly recommend Liz to watch your furry loved ones! Liz is excellent at keeping communication and sending pictures along with updating how our pups were doing while we were away. You’re making a mistake if you don’t book Liz, she’s the best and will always use her for our pups!”

“Julianna is so sweet! She lives my Paulie and I adore seeing Cooper and Betty Boop and meeting the other pups Juliana is caring for! The comfort of having Juliana care my pup the way she cares for her own is awesome!!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Saya and David while they cared for my miniature dachshund, Astro, for 3 days of daycare. Even before meeting him, they took the time to ask thoughtful questions to make sure they understood his routine, personality, and needs. Throughout his stay, they were incredibly communicative, sending photos and videos that gave me peace of mind and showed just how much fun he was having. It was clear that Astro received plenty of attention, affection, and excellent care (by the second morning, he ran right into their house because he was so excited to see them again)! They were also very flexible and accommodating with drop-off and pick-up times, which made everything convenient around my work schedule. I truly felt that Astro was treated like part of their family. I highly recommend Saya and David to anyone looking for caring and reliable dog sitters, and I will absolutely be booking with them again!”

“Liz was great with only fur baby! She kept me updated with how Luna was doing throughout the day and sent pictures!! Looking forward to leaving Luna with Liz again, knowing she will be in greats hands!!”

“Madeline was amazing and her house is so cute and dog friendly. She was very communicative while our pup was staying with her. Absolutely plan on having her sit Barkley again!”

“Donte was great with Blue. He really helped us out with a last-minute weekend daycare booking, and Blue was very excited to go back. We received photos and videos during his visits and we will definitely look to Donte for future daycare visits.”

“So happy with the entire experience! Samantha took such good care of my Banjo, sent pictures the entire day and kept me updated on how he was doing. I would definitely recommend and will keep her in mind if I need someone to watch Banjo in the future!”


“Dante was an amazing caretaker! I received photo updates throughout her stay as she got to enjoy playing with his lil Frenchie. I received a lovely report upon pickup too, as she was smiling away!! She loved playing with tennis balls AND she didn’t tear up one of them!! THAT IS A MIRACLE!! My tennis balls have never survived a Belinda! Once Belinda and I arrived home, she went straight to sleep and snoozed all night. She had a GREAT day! Thank you so much, Dante, for your flexibility and for taking great care of my best girl!!”
“They were so great with my dog. We boarded our dog for a night with them and picked him up late next day. Rob made sure we had all updates and sent pictures as well so we knew he was playing and having fun. I’d definitely recommend you use these amazing people :)”

“Rachel is living and caring with our Puppy! I enjoy getting the snapshots and videos of them playing or walking together. It is such a comfort knowing that he is with Rachel and loved and cared for when i am away on business. He absolutely loves being with Rachel and has made himself super comfortable in her home!”

“Christopher took Everest on a bunch of walks and fun adventures! I can definitely tell she loves being dropped off with him and I have no concerns that she won’t be taken care of when I leave her with Christopher!”

“Rachel takes care of my dog as if he were her own! He is always happy to see her and go on his walks. Rachel gives me peace of mind when I’m working and is very trustworthy!”


About: My first memory was reaching out to pet the family dog and by the age of 8 I was the main care taker and trainer of our family pets (Sheltie, Poodle, Akita, Bearded Dragon). By 14 began pet sitting ranging from puppies at 8 months to senior dogs at 17 years old. I have cared for many of my neighbors pets that includes cats, hedgehogs, and hamsters. As I got older, I became braver and currently have two snakes. I am home full time and typically start my day with a morning walk which is always more appreciated with a four legged friend or two. In my care I offer daily updates and photos. For check-ins I typically stay for an hour to ensure the pets are well taken care of as well as provide extra walks or play time for the more energetic.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and did over night visits. For friends and family. I also have taken care of puppies that were 6 months. I’m currently working part time at Costco. I normally work night shift and have two days off. I could walk dogs in the morning or at night I normally feed them twice a day once in the morning and the other at night. I would walk them three or four times a day. I would then take them outside to either play or run around in a safe environment.

“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”

“Carly was fantastic. She watched my dog, Griffey, over Memorial Day Weekend and I was very satisfied with the experience. Carly was proactive with sending updates every day throughout the stay, so I always knew how Griffey was doing. It was a great environment for Griffey - her two dogs provided the companionship, socialization, and play that he would not typically have otherwise, and the hikes Carly took him on gave him plenty of exercise. Carly was a great sitter and it was clear that she genuinely cared for Griffey's well-being. I would definitely return as a customer if Griffey needs a sitter in the future.”

I got photos and videos every day, and Tamikia was available before my trip to do a meet and greet at her house. My dog has dietary issues and sometimes comes home with an upset stomach when she is boarded with someone who has dogs and/or cats because of getting into someone else's food but that was not the case this time. I am going to book with Tamikia for my next trip!”

“Donte is awesome! I've never left Theo with anyone before, this is the first time Theo and I have been separated for more than 24 hrs. This time it was from Saturday to Tuesday. I was supposed to pick up Theo on Monday but I ended up catching tge flue and Donte was more than happy to watch Theo and extra day. On picking Theo up I could tell how happy he was with the care Donte provided. Thanks again Donte, you did an awesome job!”

About: I had a dog for 12 wonderful years! Since he’s passed, I live a travelers lifestyle which makes it hard to own a pet of my own though I’m always checking local SPCA’s just for fun! I’d love to meet and play with other people pets in between traveling. I am 34 years old, with a bachelors in education, and for 10 years was operating a waterpark in New Jersey that recently closed its doors. This is why I am between jobs and I plan to take a summer off of corporate world employment! I’m accountable, take instruction well, and love all animals of all different colors shapes and sizes! I worked as a dog walker/sitter in the past and then got busy with other jobs. This is my there is a large gap between the last reviews and services. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I’m currently not working, taking the summer off before joining the corporate world again! I plan on doing a lot of traveling but looking for income while also doing something fun! I just moved into a new apartment, it has a large yard, though it’s not fully fenced in, however, I do have a makeshift fenced. I can put up to make it completely fenced in. I have no other pets, I am a very clean person he’s not afraid to get things dirty and clean afterwards if there are any whoopsies.
“I couldn't have chosen better sitters than Emma and Collin. It was my anxious 7 year old dog's first time being boarded. She was nervous at first,but, Emma and Collin k ew how to make her comfortable and she ended up really enjoying her stay and the other dogs. So thankful I found these two!!”

“Bryce was available on short notice and remained responsive over DMs throughout our interactions. I got lots of photos and updates on Wallace during his stay. I would recommend anyone to place their pet in Bryce's cade.”

“Great place for dogs to spend the night. Laura knows a lot about dogs and follow all the instructions for my dog. We will definitely be rebooking her services in the future!”


“Kashi had a great time staying with Sarah. Sarah and her pups were excellent hosts. She sent me pics of my little girl smiling and having fun. They're conveniently located near the airport too! Definitely booking with them again in the future.”

About: I’ve owned and cared for cats, dogs, fish, rodents and reptiles for more than 45 years. I would be happy to share the love with your furry (or otherwise) family members too. I currently have a sheepadoodle that loves other dogs and people, so he would love to have a playmate to come and take walks and spend time with us. I currently work from home so I have plenty of freedom to spoil all the pets in my care. I do look after my 3 year old grandson sometimes so getting along with children would be an important quality if your pet should come to stay with me. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly sheepadoodle that gets along with both dogs and cats. We love to go on walks too.
