“Enrica & Roberto rolled out the red carpet for our Frannie. Numerous photo updates, with accompanying messages, definitely put our minds at ease. When I went to pick up our little girl, I wasn’t sure she would want to come home!”
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”
“Sadie had such a great time staying with Laura. She is very skeptical about new environments; however, she was very comfortable and showed no signs of stress. I will be asking Laura to watch Sadie again in the future.”
“Justin and Steph were amazing again!! They made my dog feel at home and she was a happy girl when I picked her up! I travel 45 min to have my dog stay at their place because they are just so good with her! They were great with communication and sending tons of updates and pictures!”
“Was very happy with Nicole. Our dog received tender loving care and she gave us much appreciated pictures and status updates. I'm also thankful for the flexible drop off and pick up times. Thank you Nicole. We hope to be able to use your services again if your available.”
“This was Khloe's first time being boarded and what a great experience. Her first meeting with Candice went so well that when it came time for her to actually stay we were totally comfortable. Candice sent pics and kept in contact with us throughout Khloe's stay. I will definitely use her again.”
“Lindsey was great! She kept us updated the whole time with pictures and videos of our dog Rocky. We felt very comfortable with Rocky in her care. Will definitely use her again!”
“Cassandra was very accommodating for my overactive schnauzer. It was a last minute request & she arranged a meet & greet with her dog. My dog was welcomed & stayed in her room with her dog. It was a good experience. Thanks Cassandra”
“This is my second overnight stay with Claudia. Excellent boarding service for my dog. He is in great care with Claudia. We love her level of service with Killian. Changed his sweaters, play time, personalized photos. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Alexandra was a great sitter for our pups Boone and George! She was incredibly communicative and shared lots of updates about how the boys were doing. She helped us last minute when we were traveling nearby and we are so grateful!”
“Geosselyn is friendly and very kind. She gave me frequent updates with photos/video to let me know how my dog was adjusting at her home. My small Maltese truly received excellent, personalized care. I highly recommend Geosselyn and will place my dog in her care again!”
“Lorraine provided a wonderful home-away-from-home for my senior dog. She certainly gave him the royal treatment and he clearly enjoyed his stay with her. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was happy and comfortable. Everything about our experience using Lorraine's dog hosting service was exceptional. She provided quick updates and photos of our dog having fun, which we really enjoyed while away. She was also very flexible and responsive to communications. I highly recommend Lorraine as a dog host!”
“Megan and Vitality were very communicative and sent lots of pictures. My pup had so much fun playing with the other dogs and running around the yard. We had a wonderful experience with them! Plan to schedule again in the future :)”
“Chyann was amazing with my puppy Jude. He was 7 months old at the time of her having him. She kept me up to date with regular photos and updates. He was always happy and well cared for - which takes extra work with a pup his age. 10/10 would book again.”
“Yvonne K was a pleasure to work with. She communicated quickly and clearly. Most importantly, our dog seemed very content in staying with her. I also liked the fact that she has a dog who kept my dog company.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Alyssa! Our two doggos, Ava and Peyton, are two very unique pitties. Ava is 10 and is a nervous Nel who just likes to cuddle up and relax. Peyton is almost 3 and more like a wreck it Ralph. As worried as I was that Peyton would destroy their home or that Ava would have a heart attack, they ended up loving their stay! Not only that, but I could tell that they got exactly what they needed from Alyssa and her family because when we got home, Ava and Pey were spent. Alyssa always remained in contact with me and answered all my questions and accommodated a last minute request. Thanks, Alyssa!!!”
“Couldn’t have had a better experience. Such a sweet, gracious lady. Sent pictures and communicated daily. Loved on my babies, not just “dogs sat.” Even allowed me to pick them up LATE as my flight was delayed! I have my new local “Rover-ine!””

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for felines across all life stages, from high-energy kittens to gentle seniors. I specialize in special needs and medical care, a skill I developed firsthand while managing my own cat’s heart condition. Because of this, I am completely confident administering daily oral medications, tracking health changes, and keeping medical routines precise and stress-free. Whether your cat is an active player or a shy hider, I understand feline body language and respect their boundaries to ensure they feel safe, secure, and loved
“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”

“I really appreciated Nicole's care for and attention to our senior guy. I had no worries leaving him in her care. And since she only takes one animal per day it worked out perfectly. Will definitely use her again!”
About: All my life, I have been surrounded by dogs. I have been dog sitting for friends and family throughout the years and gained some experience through that. I am reliable, organized, responsible, and accountable. Overall, I want to gain more experience with doing something I love. Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine because I have 2 dogs of my own and a horse. I am used to providing them with their everyday needs, daily walks, and showering them with affection along the way. They need a lot of attention, love, and care every day and I enjoy giving it to them! I provide whatever needs necessary for the pet. I make sure they go on daily walks, being fed at the proper time, making sure water bowls are full, and having plenty of play time with them.
“Christie was great with Nyla on this last minute booking. Very communicative through the day with check-ins. Her dog is friendly and playful. Great for a puppy’s first mate.”
“We were very impressed with Geosselyn’s care of our dog! Her large fenced in backyard was perfect! Our dog seemed very comfortable with her! We highly recommend Geosselyn!”
About: I've always had dogs and recently lost my beloved German Shepherd. I have helped my sister in her pet care business for several years now from pups to farm animals. I work full time remotely from home and have the time and desire to keep your fur babies company while they do the same for me. I currently work full-time remotely from home. I'd welcome some company and walk/play breaks in my day. I am often around on Saturdays and Sundays as well. I have a fenced yard for play and potty and would welcome pets into our home just like we did with our pets. I don't have any children at home as they are now all grown. I will also mainly schedule one dog at a time unless they are from the same family to make sure everyone is safe and happy.
About: I have had animals all of my life. Love Dogs, big and small, Cats finicky and cuddly. I have taken care of special needs animals and have managed medications as well as shots and measuring blood sugar. Currently I have two rescue Greyhounds and a Jack Russell Terrier, basically 2 couch potatoes and a WonderDog who never stops chasing a stick. Last but not least I have Sage, a 15-year-old grey tabby who looks really good for her age and puts the Pups in their place. In any event I am looking forward to meeting your pets in the near future. ~Regards, Kelli I am currently semi-retired and have all of the time in the world. In other words my schedule is quite flexible, so I am able to work around yours. Although I do not offer pet sitting in my home, I am able to accommodate any needs or schedule for your pets in your home. I am also able to transport your pets in my SUV for Park, Veterinary visits etc..
“Our terrier mix puppy has been going to Grace’s for a few weeks now (2x weekly for a full work day) and I can’t say enough good things! My husband and I found Grace because on the days my husband can’t come home during lunch, we didn’t want our puppy to be crated or left unattended all day. Grace and her family treat our puppy like their own dog, she becomes part of their family while she’s there. She gets tons of playtime, attention, affection. I absolutely love seeing the “report card” pictures after each day. It’s very clear my puppy is well cared for during her visits. It’s now to the point when we’re pulling up to Grace’s, our puppy gets excited because she knows where she’s at! 10/10 recommend!”
About: I’m a true dog enthusiast who was the primary caregiver for my German Shepherd, Jax, for almost 9 years until he passed away last year. During that time, I handled every aspect of his daily life—long walks in any weather, scheduled feeding, plenty of play and exercise (he loved fetch!), grooming, basic training, vet appointments, and showering him with affection. Jax was a big, energetic boy with a strong personality, so I’m very comfortable managing high-energy breeds, leash pulling, setting boundaries, and keeping routines consistent for a happy, well-behaved dog. Though I don’t have a dog of my own right now, that deep experience has only strengthened my passion for caring for pups. I’m excited to bring the same level of dedication, patience, and one-on-one attention to your dog—whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, boarding, or whatever they need. I always prioritize safety, follow your instructions closely, and send daily updates with photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I’d love to earn yours. Feel free to ask any questions or set up a meet-and-greet! 🐾 Honoring Jax by helping other dogs thrive.” I am a stay home mom currently working in an online certification so I’m at home almost all day . I usually just need to take my daughter to and from school. On weekends I am mostly home as well. I have a very big fence yard that I can play with your dog. He can lay down on my deck to soak some sun. I live in a safe neighborhood where I can take him for walks . Or I can cuddle him on my couch watching tv. He will receive all the attention he needs.
About: I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family for many years, and I’d love to offer my help with your precious friends too! I currently have a Bassett hound/springer spaniel mix named Moody Blues, but enjoy dogs of all sizes and even the sassiest cats! This is currently my main job, so ensuring my flexibility for you is priority! I look forward to working with you to make sure your pets are cared for. I love to visit and take care of friends! For dogs, we can walk, play at home, I can bring Moody Blues if your dog would enjoy visits, and I’m happy to take care of any cleanups or feedings as well. For my cat friends, I’m happy to take care of the same things, with offers of cuddles and lap time in place of the walks for the indoor kitties.
“Lauren is very flexible and understanding and really great with Chai! Great with updates and giving Chai lots of opportunities to potty and exercise. Chai also gets along great with Lauren’s own pups!”
“Sunaina was great with Loki! He had such a great time with her and her family. She sent us many pictures and updates periodically of him during his time with them. She listened to our instructions on his allergies and food timing, and took him out for walks. We were super happy that he was happy! Definitely will book again when we are back in the area!”

About: Hi! I’m Jackie, a reliable and caring pet sitter who truly enjoys being around animals. I’ve had dogs in the past and currently have a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet’s care and routine. I’ve also filled in for my sister-in-law’s dog walking clients, so I’m comfortable handling different dogs, following schedules, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or laid-back, I take the time to match their comfort level and routine. I’m patient, attentive, and detail-oriented, and I follow owner instructions closely. You can expect dependable service, a calm approach, and regular updates so you know your pet is doing well. What I offer: • Dog walking and drop-in visits • Feeding and fresh water checks • Playtime and companionship • Litter box and basic cleanup • Photo and message updates • Care tailored to your pet’s routine Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’d love the chance to meet you and your furry family member! I work from home, which gives me flexibility and reliability when it comes to pet care. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 9 AM to 2 PM. Because I work remotely, I’m able to plan my day around scheduled visits and give pets my full attention during that time. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, and I make it a priority to be on time, consistent, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I always focus on safety, routine, and comfort when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and behavior guidelines. I take time to learn each pet’s personality and comfort level so I can keep their stress as low as possible.
About: Hi, I’m Sophie! I attended a vocational trade school where I studied Animal Science for three years. I gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of small and large animals, while learning proper handling and restraints, health and behavior, as well as how to safely administer oral and injectable medications. Through my training, I became certified in animal first aid and CPR. I also have experience caring for puppies/kittens, senior animals and pets with special needs, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and maintaining consistent routines. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and also worked at a kennel in high school, so I have spent years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Because of that, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I give the best care and attention that I possibly can. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing in the yard, relaxing on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, we are committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. We will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive, reliable care. We understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in the care of someone else, and our goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member! :) Hey! I’m Dylan and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a ton of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm and have always had multiple pets at a time, so I learned responsibility and animal care at a young age. I currently have 3 dogs and 4 cats of my own, and I love spending time with them—whether it’s going on runs with my dogs or cuddling up with my cats. I’m calm, patient, and always make sure animals feel safe and cared for. I treat every animal like they’re my own, with love and respect. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, some playtime, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently working a full-time job Monday through Thursday, from 6am until anywhere between 3pm and 5pm, depending on the day. I have Saturdays and Sundays off, and occasionally Fridays. Sophie works 2pm to 10pm a few days a week, her schedule is different every week. Since our schedules are opposite and Sophie has a bit more free time, one of us is always available to spend a good amount of time with your pet. The first thing we do when taking care of our own pets, or others pets, is let them out to go to the bathroom. Next, we prioritize feeding and medicating (if necessary) and cleaning and refilling all water bowls. Once everything important is taken care of, we then spend quality time with them, whether it’s playing fetch, cuddling or going for a walk. Before we leave, we make sure we let them back outside for a good while to make sure they take care of all of their business.
About: I’m new to the area and excited to be living on the East Coast! I’ve spent my entire life around animals, and about 10 years ago I ran a successful pet-sitting business on the West Coast. I’m excited to get back to doing something I genuinely love. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals—dogs, cats, hamsters, hedgehogs, lizards, snakes, horses, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, and plenty of others. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from Pit Bulls to Chihuahuas and everything in between. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets, puppies, anxious pets, animals with special needs, and pets who need medications. The one exception? Spiders. (((shudder))) Never spiders. I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and care for your pets the way you do. Whether your pet needs a brief visit or several hours of companionship, I’m happy to tailor each visit to their needs. Walks, meals, medication, playtime, or simply some company—I’m happy to give your pets the attention they deserve. At this time, I’m offering check-in visits only and am not able to provide overnight care. I have a special-needs rescue dog of my own who cannot be left alone overnight. However, I can make as many visits during the day as your pets need and can stay for as long as necessary during each visit. I have plenty of references from previous pet-sitting clients and am happy to provide them upon request. I understand that trusting someone with your pets - and your home - is a big deal, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pets are safe, happy, comfortable, and cared for just as you would want. My #1 priority is to provide loving care when you’re not there. I’m available all day, seven days a week—including holidays. I’m happy to accommodate early mornings, late nights, and even last-minute requests. I can work with your schedule. When I’m in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow the pet’s normal routine and schedule. This helps ease the anxiety of having someone new in their space while their parents are away. I also respect your privacy—I know how it feels to have someone go through your belongings, and I could never imagine violating that trust.
“Kendall has been wonderful with my rescue pup who’s experiencing a lot of separation anxiety since we moved and I’ve been having to travel for work a few days a week. She’s very communicative and I can tell she takes great care of all the pets that are in her charge. I would highly recommend Kendall for your pet sitting/walking needs any time!”

About: Hi everyone! My name's Shirl and I am hoping to make your life a bit easier by taking away the stress of leaving your pup behind while you're away. I have been pet sitting for over 12 years; I used to have dogs come board with me while owners went away, but I've found that most owners prefer their pets to stay in the comfort of their own home. I have years of experience doing overnight pet sitting, but unfortunately my growing family (3 dogs and a cat of my own) no longer allows for me to stay away from home overnight. I am happy to provide multiple daily visits and/or walks! My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible while you're away, by keeping their daily routine as close to "normal" as possible. I've cared for all types of pets including dogs, cats, bunnies, chicks, quail, lizards, fish, etc.! I am an experienced dog handler/ animal lover at heart. I worked at/managed a doggie day care/boarding facility for 4 years, learning from a very experienced trainer who focuses on positive reinforcement techniques ONLY. During my time there, I had opportunities to complete trainings to understand dog behaviors and body language. I have volunteered at BARCS as a dog walker/foster, working primarily with bully breeds. Why I love dog sitting I have been an animal lover my entire life. From playing with salamanders as a kid, to growing up with cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes; I've also had bunnies, fish, frogs, hermit crabs, hamsters, birds...the list goes on! I couldn't imagine a life without animals in it. My experience administering medication Yes. Working at a dog boarding facility for nearly 2 years I have had to give many forms of medications, and my personal pets also take oral medications. I am not trained to give injections. My full time job allows me to work from home majority of the week. That makes it easy for me to swing by for a visit at different times of the day. The latest drop in I can provide is 7pm. I am happy to provide updates as soon as I arrive, during the stay, and as I leave. For dog walks, I prefer not to introduce any dog that I’m handling to another dog passing by. This ensures everyone’s safety.
About: I’ve had pets all my life. I love all animals especially cats and dogs. I have trained my dog, Benji, who I’ve had for 6 years! I would love to have your pet! I’m a self employed makeup artist so my schedule is pretty open during the week mostly! I work from home and we are very flexible I have a big fenced yard. Only one male neutered dog who gets along with most dogs. I love to play and pet the dogs often and then love to sit with me and watch favorite movie!
About: Hello! I have been in the animal care industry for almost two decades. During this time I was certified as an Animal Care Technician. My training taught me proper handling, how to read body language, and how to gauge temperament in each pet. I have dealt with dogs and cats of various sizes and ages. Other qualifications that set me apart include administering medication to pets, bathing dogs, and teaching dogs basic commands. While visiting your pet I can provide light house-keeping. I have a genuine passion for animals, and hope to someday pursue a career in the field. Thank you for your consideration! Looking for pets who need lunch visits/walks! I enjoy taking care of pets in my spare time. I relish getting out of my house as I currently work from home. I try to treat every pet as if it were my own. When coming into a client's home, I am respectful, and try to leave things in better condition than I found them.

“Enrica & Roberto rolled out the red carpet for our Frannie. Numerous photo updates, with accompanying messages, definitely put our minds at ease. When I went to pick up our little girl, I wasn’t sure she would want to come home!”
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”
“Sadie had such a great time staying with Laura. She is very skeptical about new environments; however, she was very comfortable and showed no signs of stress. I will be asking Laura to watch Sadie again in the future.”
“Justin and Steph were amazing again!! They made my dog feel at home and she was a happy girl when I picked her up! I travel 45 min to have my dog stay at their place because they are just so good with her! They were great with communication and sending tons of updates and pictures!”
“Cassandra was very accommodating for my overactive schnauzer. It was a last minute request & she arranged a meet & greet with her dog. My dog was welcomed & stayed in her room with her dog. It was a good experience. Thanks Cassandra”
“Alexandra was a great sitter for our pups Boone and George! She was incredibly communicative and shared lots of updates about how the boys were doing. She helped us last minute when we were traveling nearby and we are so grateful!”
“Chyann was amazing with my puppy Jude. He was 7 months old at the time of her having him. She kept me up to date with regular photos and updates. He was always happy and well cared for - which takes extra work with a pup his age. 10/10 would book again.”
“Yvonne K was a pleasure to work with. She communicated quickly and clearly. Most importantly, our dog seemed very content in staying with her. I also liked the fact that she has a dog who kept my dog company.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Alyssa! Our two doggos, Ava and Peyton, are two very unique pitties. Ava is 10 and is a nervous Nel who just likes to cuddle up and relax. Peyton is almost 3 and more like a wreck it Ralph. As worried as I was that Peyton would destroy their home or that Ava would have a heart attack, they ended up loving their stay! Not only that, but I could tell that they got exactly what they needed from Alyssa and her family because when we got home, Ava and Pey were spent. Alyssa always remained in contact with me and answered all my questions and accommodated a last minute request. Thanks, Alyssa!!!”
“My lab Ruby had a wonderful time with Jacob and Megan. She was super excited that she would be able to play with other dogs and lounge on their deck. She was exhausted when she came home. I definitely recommend Jacob and Megan as dog sitters and would take Ruby back again!”
About: Ive had cats and dogs since a very young age I currently have 4 dogs and three cats. I have many years of experience and love them all!

They are all very good animals most of my animals live at home except for one of my cats that lives with me at school, but I’ve taken care of all these animals from almost all my life.
