They are a lovely couple who inspire confidence in the care they will give your fur baby. Rachel sent us pictures showing us a happy, comfortable Sangi. We can vacation with ease now knowing he'll be well cared for and loved.”
“I booked with Melissa for the first time and had a great experience!! She gave regular updates, including pictures, and I could tell my girls were part of the family. I will definitely book with her again!”

“Amazing, amazing, amazing. She was so sweet and caring to my puppy and cat. Sent me pics and updates. Can't say enough good things about her. Am definitely going to use her whenever I go on vacation again!”
“Nikki has been a fantastic sitter for our German Shepherd. He is very reserved and has some medical issues. She has no problem giving him medications. And with her dog Turk, she helped him come out of his shell. He is completely relaxed at her place. This is amazing. He rarely get relaxed anywhere but home. We will always use Nikki”
“Sara was absolutely wonderful! She took care of my dogs for 10 days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She is incredibly kind and sweet, and her home is warm and welcoming. Her large backyard was the perfect playground for my dogs, giving them plenty of space to run and play. She sent daily pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Knowing my dogs were in such great hands made all the difference. I would highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“They were the absolute best! I could not be happier that I chose them to look after my 5 month puppy, Nero. They are a great, friendly couple who kept me updated with photos and shared fun moments they had with Nero. From the moment I met them, I knew that Nero was going to be in good hands and felt very comfortable leaving him. They will always be my first choice whenever I need to board Nero.”
“This is the first time we’ve boarded our dogs so we were a little anxious about how they would adapt. Judith was a total Godsend! Flexible, responsive, and very understanding of our dogs’ individual personalities and needs. We appreciated the daily updates, and could tell they were doing just fine. Which was great because I was able to relax and enjoy our vacation. When we picked them up, they were happy to see us but clearly not stressed or anxious. Meaning - they felt safe and comfortable and happy under Judith’s care. Her home is perfect for dogs, with a fenced back yard. I’m so thankful and highly recommend Judith!”

She kept me updated throughout Rosie’s stay, sent lots of photos, and gave me such peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Rosie was well cared for and loved. I truly appreciated the excellent communication and the extra effort Angelet put into making sure I knew Rosie was happy and doing well. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Angelet!”
“Ashley and her family went above and beyond to make Bella feel welcome. She frequently updated me on Bella and sent me pictures of her stay. Bella seemed very happy when I picked her up, so I believe she enjoyed her stay at Ashley's. Thank you so much Ashley and Andrew for taking such good care of her! :-)”
“They were awesome, very welcoming when we all met. Bleu gravitated to them which is a big plus. Kept me with up to date photos and info on his behavior. Will be using them again. Great Husband and Wife dual.”

I am versed well with kittens and bottle feeding. also with administering medications and scooping/cleaning litter boxes.

“Kelly did a wonderful job watching my cat while I was away for a week! She was consistent when she showed up and I could tell she spent some time with him. When I got home, he was happy and well taken care of! I’ll definitely use Kelly again in the future!”
About: I have always had pets in my life since I was at a very young age. I recently moved to Princeton with my family and we are animal lovers all the way! I currently work from home, I and my wife also have a dog Luka who is 3 y/o and would love some company to play and exercise. We live on a nice apartment property, located super close to Carrollton Blue and Orange trails and outdoor. We always clean up and respect our four-legged friends. I have a very flexible job, that allows me to take many breaks during the day, allowing me to look after the doggies. I usually have smooth music for Luka while I'm on a call, but 80% of the time we just hang out until the next break to go out and walk around. On weekends we like going to the outdoors to get that extra excersice when needed. I take care with the basics needs first, always filtered water and safe to use toys, I like keeping them entertained with toys or a comfy sofa to lay down. I like taking them on walks nearby, as our apartment isn't fenced I like to keep him on a leash until we go to a park where they can run a little and stretch those legs.

I understand that every cat is different, and I’ll treat yours with love and care like they’re my own.

About: Dog loving family with many years of experience owning dogs. We have one fur baby, 5 year old beagle mix named Chip. Chip is 26lb bundle of love and playfulness and gets along well with large or small breeds. We have a large fenced yard and I am home full time. I can offer daycare and overnight boarding. I will care for your fur baby as I expect mine to be, like a member of our family. I prefer dogs that are crate trained in case I need to run errands and prefer not to let them run free inside with no one home. We get lots of exercise and cuddle time. Tell me what will make your pup happy and I will do my best to accommodate. I look forward to meeting you soon! I work from home so my time away from your pup will be minimal. We take lots of outside breaks, but, we keep them inside to relax and stay comfortable during harsh weather. I have a large fenced yard and two dogs that play gently with other dogs. I watch them at all times even when outside. They are never left unattended except for short errands and they will be crated during my absence. I have lots of experience with senior dogs and can accommodate their special needs including injected meds. Mini photo shoot is also included with your pet’s stay! I am a stay at home mom so I am almost always at home. We get up early and serve breakfast, have potty and play time, or your pup can relax if that is what they prefer. I have a spacious fenced in back yard for running and playing and my home is pet friendly. Your baby will feel right at home and will be loved and cared for just like my own.
About: I've been taking care of pups for over 15 yrs now. At first my own pups, but then I would help out friends and family with their pups while they went on vacations and/or traveled for work. My family says I have a kinship with dogs as most dogs naturally get a long with me. Sometimes I can calm the most excitable pup and have them relax in my lap. I work pretty early in the morning. I'm usually home by 10-11 am. I have a pretty good schedule regarding feeding and potty breaks. I tend to take the pups out for walking and play I have a fenced back yard and a dog park near by. I can take your fur babies to the park or on walks regularly. I currently have 2 pups myself, they are well trained and have a pretty steady routine (food and potty breaks). They get along well with other dogs, no biting or aggression. They do set boundaries though. NO humping.
“They take such good care of my dogs. My girl is very sensitive so I can always tell if someone scares her. Both my dogs are always bouncing off the walls when I come to pick them up. 🥰”
“Damon and Danyale were amazing when I needed a last minute day sitter when our original sitter was not available. I’ve been needed to find a back up one close to home and definitely will be using again when needed. Damon sent many photos throughout the 2 days he was there. Highly recommend.”
“Namita was an awesome host for my fur babies. Provided plenty of picture updates every few hrs. Namita and her husband were very cooperative during the whole process. My dogs came home very happy. I didn't have to worry abt them even for a minute. I would surely recommend Namita to other pet parents. I surely would like to request Namita for future bookings. Thank you Namita.”
“As someone new in town, trusting someone with my furbabies wasn’t easy. I found Brenda on this app and our first meet and greet went wonderfully. She was amazing with my furbabies, and I loved receiving updates on how they were doing. You can truly feel the care and warmth she provides. Brenda gets a 5-star rating and my full recommendation!”
“Toria and her husband are the best sitters ever. They communicate well throughout the day and are always quick to answer. This is the second time they’ve watched our Amber, and she comes back happy and was happy to see the house again when we dropped her off so that means a lot. Would recommend 100%”
About: I have been a professional full time dog trainer for over 20 years. I opened my home to in-home boarding and day care a few years ago and absolutely love it. We treat all the animals that stay with us like they are part of our family until their loved ones come back! I send multiple updates a day, pictures and videos as well. I have many references I can offer you as well! It’s very rare that someone is not home with the animals. We spend our days going outside to play (weather permitting), and playing inside as well. The dogs are allowed to veg on the couch (if that’s allowed at their home!), and enjoy spending time with us! We have a 3 acre fenced yard. The dogs love it very much for running and playing. They are never outside unsupervised for any amount of time! Our property is perfect for endless dog fun. 🐾

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. My pets are my children so I love them fiercely. I have worked with and volunteered with animals for the last 15 years. I’ve spent time with pets in a clinic environment as a vet tech, a shelter environment as a kennel tech and dog walker, and a rescue environment as a volunteer. My volunteer time has included transporting pets, walking dogs, helping mamas who just had puppies, and loving on new puppies too! I have flexibility and freedom with my schedule. I can do drop ins, stay and visit with your pet for a bit, and do feedings or give meds if need be. Because my own dogs can be knuckleheads, I can take care of your pets in your home. It might help make their time away from you easier for them anyhow. I can take them for walks, play with them in your yard, take them for car rides, and just hang out with them. My goal would be to make your pets as happy and comfortable as possible. When they’re happy, you’re happy…and then you can enjoy your time away.
“Mary is extremely dependable and flexible. She is amazing with both of my older dogs and there is a noticeable difference in their behavior after Mary has come by to play with them. They seem happier, and that makes me happier, too.”
About: We enjoy being the first choice for most all of our family and friends when it comes to their pets needs! We like to spend extra time with the animals while their pawrents are away and even enjoy bringing some special homemade treats if allowed! We are a firefighter and homeschool family, so our schedule is extremely flexible. We enjoy spending time with any and all animals. I also have a passion for baking, so bringing an extra homemade treat is allowed is something special too! We have one lab girl who is our four legged princess. As the only other girl in a house of boys, she is 100% spoiled rotten and we wouldn't have it any other way.
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Pumpkin! She walked Pumpkin and made sure he was fed while I was away, giving me total peace of mind.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I have been dog sitting when I could. I retired from teaching after 29 years so now I have more time available to take care of more dogs.

If your dog does not like other dogs, please be sure to let me know before I walk your dog. If you have any questions or concerns please let me know. Thank you. During the week I do have college, i go to San Jac which is T/Th at 8:35-10:35am. Other than that I’m free to watch your pets ;) I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment when caring for pets at client’s home. I ensure all spaces are pet-proofed, free of hazards, and suited to their specific needs. I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care instructions to maintain consistency. Building trust is key, so I use positive reinforcement, gentle handling, and patience to help pets feel secure. At a client’s, I create an stress-free, loving atmosphere where pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: Hello I’m maddie! I’ve had all different kinds of animals of my own over the years, and have enjoyed other peoples animals when I get the chance to! I have 3 years experience of professional house cleaning/sitting, which most of the time included taking responsibility for the pets in the house as well! I have a frenchie of my own whom I adore, he’s 3 years old, and he’s my best friend. I hope I can get the chance to take care of your animal, whatever it may be! I can guarantee he or she will be in great hands! I have a very open schedule! Im always available when you need. I don’t need much notice, maybe an hour or two! I know life can be unpredictable I feed pets, take them on walks, hangout, preferably at the owners house where the pet is most comfortable! If you request it, I can most likely accommodate.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love. I currently have my own almost 2-year-old Lab, who is playful, friendly, and used to having other animals around. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to relaxed seniors. My home has a fenced backyard, a doggy door, plenty of space to play and relax, and lots of toys! I’m happy to provide treats when approved by the owner and will always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and care instructions. I’m also soon welcoming a newborn, so creating a calm, loving, and safe environment for every pet in my home is especially important to me. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re staying with family—not just being boarded. ❤️🐾 I currently have a completely open schedule and am not working outside of pet care, so I’m available throughout the day and can work around your schedule and your pet’s needs. I’m happy to accommodate different routines, drop-in times, walks, and boarding stays whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I’ll take the time to learn their routine, personality, energy level, and any special needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I have a friendly dog of my own, Maggie, so I’ll always make sure any pets staying in my home are a safe and comfortable match. I’m also expecting a newborn soon, so it’s especially important that all pets in my home are comfortable around babies and that everyone has a safe environment.
About: I've had dogs in my life since my infancy and love dogs. I don't have a favorite breed since I think all dogs are special in their own right but I'm a big fan of chihuahuas and bulldogs. I am a freelance artist so I have plenty of time to devote to animal care. I am able to bring my setup for overnight stays so my schedule won't be impacted during pet care. I have a shared two bedroom apartment that is surrounded by plenty of grassy walking areas and a fenced in dog park, so if your pets stay with me, we'll have lots to do. I also don't mind traveling to or staying overnight at a client's house as I have my own vehicle and no other outside obligations.
About: Hi! 🥰 My name is Rachael! I am a very energetic, patient, and creative person who lives to love and be around animals. Dogs are my favorite animal! I have cared for animals for 13 years. I’ve grown up around many other animals as well and cared for them. Such as cats, fish, and some reptiles. I do offer to bathe your babies if needed. With me, your children will receive appropriate care. Personally, I'm an organizer, planner, and multitasker, and always just a phone call away, face time is also available so minimum supervision is required. With all my skills and experience, I'm able to provide a supervised, safe, fun, and stable environment for your sweet babies!! I look forward to hearing from your families soon! 🐶🥰 I’m currently enrolled at James Madison High School. I do have a lot of free time right now until I reach my money savings goal to continue school. I’m not providing care for animals in my home right away but will provide care in my home as soon as possible for both cats & dogs.
About: I am a military spouse and mother of three who previously worked in retail. I got a certification for Veterinary assistant a few years ago. Now I'm hoping to continue my education and become a certified pet nutritionist. In between time I am currently just looking forward to working with and caring for all different pets. I've always loved animals and cared for many different pets growing up. My availability at this time is open due to me being a full-time stay a home parent now. Have skills working with older dogs, large dogs, cats, lizards, turtles, and birds. I'm also willing to work with pets with special needs only if willing to give specific instructions on their needs. I will care for your pet like he/she is my own. I am currently full time at home unless I have others to drop in on throughout the day. The weekends I am fully available to care for pets. I have a fully fenced on yard, baby gates located at the bottom of the stairs and to the laundry room which are the main two places our cat likes to be.

“Nikki has been a fantastic sitter for our German Shepherd. He is very reserved and has some medical issues. She has no problem giving him medications. And with her dog Turk, she helped him come out of his shell. He is completely relaxed at her place. This is amazing. He rarely get relaxed anywhere but home. We will always use Nikki”
“Sara was absolutely wonderful! She took care of my dogs for 10 days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She is incredibly kind and sweet, and her home is warm and welcoming. Her large backyard was the perfect playground for my dogs, giving them plenty of space to run and play. She sent daily pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Knowing my dogs were in such great hands made all the difference. I would highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“They were the absolute best! I could not be happier that I chose them to look after my 5 month puppy, Nero. They are a great, friendly couple who kept me updated with photos and shared fun moments they had with Nero. From the moment I met them, I knew that Nero was going to be in good hands and felt very comfortable leaving him. They will always be my first choice whenever I need to board Nero.”
“This is the first time we’ve boarded our dogs so we were a little anxious about how they would adapt. Judith was a total Godsend! Flexible, responsive, and very understanding of our dogs’ individual personalities and needs. We appreciated the daily updates, and could tell they were doing just fine. Which was great because I was able to relax and enjoy our vacation. When we picked them up, they were happy to see us but clearly not stressed or anxious. Meaning - they felt safe and comfortable and happy under Judith’s care. Her home is perfect for dogs, with a fenced back yard. I’m so thankful and highly recommend Judith!”
“This is Mocha's third boarding with Youjin. Youjin always takes care of Mocha as her family. Because of Youjin, we can out of town with worry-free. We will absolutely book with Youjin again! Thank you Youjin.”
“Angelet was absolutely wonderful! She was able to keep Rosie on very short notice, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She kept me updated throughout Rosie’s stay, sent lots of photos, and gave me such peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Rosie was well cared for and loved. I truly appreciated the excellent communication and the extra effort Angelet put into making sure I knew Rosie was happy and doing well. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Angelet!”
“Ashley and her family went above and beyond to make Bella feel welcome. She frequently updated me on Bella and sent me pictures of her stay. Bella seemed very happy when I picked her up, so I believe she enjoyed her stay at Ashley's. Thank you so much Ashley and Andrew for taking such good care of her! :-)”
“They were awesome, very welcoming when we all met. Bleu gravitated to them which is a big plus. Kept me with up to date photos and info on his behavior. Will be using them again. Great Husband and Wife dual.”
“Eana was great! Very quick to respond and provided daily updates over the 4 days she provided boarding. She has a very strong understanding of dogs and provided a clean and welcoming place (house is very clean). This allowed me to be at ease over the past 4 days while I was gone. Would highly recommend Eana and will 100% reach out if I do come down to SD again.”
“We boarded our 4-year-old dog, Mishti with Jennifer for the first time few weeks ago. She is wonderful, she took time for a meet & greet and clarified our doubts/questions. She sent regular photo updates and responded to our queries about Mishti's medication. Mishti was really well taken care of. Jennifer accommodated our request of a slightly late pickup, and we couldn't be more thankful for that! Mishti seemed happy in Jennifer's care and had become friends with another dog! Jennifer's place is very dog friendly with lots of beds around for the dogs and very clean! Jennifer, thank you so much for taking care of Mishti!”
“Joy took care of Lincoln for 2 weeks. She was very attentive to him and sent us lots of pictures. She was gentle and kind with Lincoln since he had just lost his lifetime buddy, and was a little anxious. She eased her way right into Lincoln’s heart and I could tell when I picked him up they had truly bonded! If you want someone to take care of your dog better than you actually do, Joy is the choice for the job! We hope to leave Lincoln in her care again!”
“It was the first time I've used this service and I have an older dog. It was just a few hours but she was very sweet to my fur baby and it made this easier . I am definitely gonna book her again and for s longer stay for my vacation”
“Jason and his wife took wonderful care of my 2 pups! It is difficult finding a dog sitter willing to administer insulin for my geriatric pup but they were more than willing!”
