“Lindsay and Brad are great! We greatly appreciate them, because they took our Roscoe and Tobie and made them a part of their family for the weekend.

“Youjin is absolutely amazing! To start, she was great a communicator from the moment we requested our boarding service. We did a meet and greet in advance, and she was even more hospitable and friendly than we anticipated from the numerous other positive reviews described of her. We felt we would have little to worry about if we left our fur babies in her hands, and to no surprise, our pups had an amazing time. Youjin kept us informed, asked us questions, and showed an immense amount of care and affection. Her patience and willingness to accommodate any situations that arises speaks to the kind-hearted person that she is. She went above and beyond the title of a "dog sitter". Whatever magic she's worked has also kept the doggos calm and peaceful since returning home. We would highly recommend Youjin, as well as let her care for our dogs again! 12/10 exceeded expectations”
“Amber & Ronnie well excited to meet Milo. Milo has a separation anxiety and possessive nature. Amber said no problem. We can take care of him. I’m very happy with their care.

“Where to begin, Jingyi was always consistent and made our first time away from Yogi stress free! She never hesitated to keep me updated with pictures and videos!! We definitely recommend and have already referred our peers to check her babysitting skills out! You are the best and we will always be grateful for your care to our Yogurt.”
“This was my second booking with Stacy. My dog loves to play with her dogs and Stacy really takes good care of my girl. She sent frequent updates, pics and videos which reassured. Her care was kind and professional!”

About: I haven’t had cats of my own since I was a kid but have loved on them when given the chance. I’ve worked with cats in a clinic environment, when they aren’t so happy to be there! Ha ha! But I’ve also had the pleasure of hanging out with some sweet cats in their own environment.

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.
About: I’ve always loved cats and enjoy spending time caring for them and making them feel comfortable. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to each cat’s personality and needs. I can help with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, cuddles, and making sure your cat feels safe and relaxed while you’re away. 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 genuinely care about the pets I look after. I don’t just “watch” animals — I build a bond with them. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and little quirks, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away. I have experience caring for playful puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior dogs who need a little extra tenderness, slower walks, or help with medications. I’m especially good with pets that are shy, anxious, or adjusting to new environments — I move at their pace and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’m very detail-oriented with feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, and special instructions, and I always keep pet parents in the loop with updates and photos. You’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing — you’ll know they’re being cared for with love and attention. Your pet will be treated like part of my family, not just another booking. 🐾 Pet care fits beautifully into my daily routine because I’m a stay-at-home wife and attend school online, which gives me plenty of flexibility and free time. I’m home most of the day, so the pets I care for get constant attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love — not just quick check-ins. I’m able to build my schedule around each pet’s needs, whether that’s morning routines, midday walks, medication times, or evening cuddle sessions. Because I’m not rushing off to an office or away for long hours, your pet gets the consistency and supervision they deserve. In my home, pets are never an afterthought — they’re part of my day. And yes, they usually become part of my heart too. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first in my care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I follow your routines and instructions closely so your pet feels relaxed, secure, and right at home. At the moment, I don’t have any pets or children, which means your pet gets my full attention in a calm, quiet environment. My home is very spacious — it’s essentially an entire home just for the pets I’m caring for. There’s plenty of room to move around, relax, and play without feeling crowded or overwhelmed. I keep everything clean, pet-safe, and free of hazards, and I’m very careful with doors, leashes, feeding, and supervision. When walking dogs, I use secure leashes and stay alert to keep them safe at all times. In your home, I treat your space with respect and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they stay comfortable and happy. I also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: for you to feel completely at ease, and for your pet to feel loved, safe, and right at home.
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.
“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.”

About: Hello! My name is Aly and I have a long history of working with animals. From managing pet stores, to farm work, and offering in-home pet care, I’ve done a little bit of everything. My main focus is to go above and beyond so both pets and their parents feel comfortable while they’re apart. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping to a familiar routine, I do my absolute best to ensure I provide loving, dependable care with updates so you can truly relax. We require all dogs visiting to be potty trained, and comfortable around cats. My schedule is currently based around my WFH schedule so dogs must be comfortable being quiet for a few hours during the day. I am still able to offer potty breaks every 4-5 hours. Your pets will always be cared for in the safety and comfort of their home or mine, where they feel most relaxed and secure. I follow routines closely, keep spaces clean, and make sure they have everything they need; from fresh food and water to a cozy spot to rest. I’m attentive to your pets behavior and surroundings, and I’ll always reach out if I notice anything unusual. My goal is to make sure everyone is happy, healthy, and stress‑free until you return.
About: I care for pets of all ages, including seniors and special needs. I’m experienced with medication, basic training, and always tailor care to each pet’s needs. Caring for pets is a joyful part of my day. I love spending time walking, playing, and making sure each pet feels safe and happy whenever I’m with them. I provide attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether at my home or yours. I follow their routines closely—feeding, walking, playtime, and rest—while ensuring a safe and loving environment. I’m experienced with administering medication and handling special needs to keep pets comfortable and happy.
About: I’ve been a devoted dog owner for my entire life, and caring for these incredible beings is more than just a job—it's my passion. Friends and family trust me wholeheartedly to love and nurture their furry loved ones when they’re away, and I pour my heart into every moment. Whether tending to lively puppies full of energy or comforting wise, elderly pets, my goal is simple: to keep those tails wagging with happiness and ensure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I get to spend plenty of time with pets each day. I usually don’t have to leave them alone for long periods, which is great! I’ve got a fenced-in yard and three super friendly dogs who just love meeting other pups! We enjoy taking neighborhood walks, playing fetch, and having fun tug-of-war matches right in the backyard.

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.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and, since I can’t have my own dog while I’m in college, I love any opportunity to spend time with them. I’m going into my senior year at Texas A&M in the Mays Business School and have a flexible schedule this summer in the Bryan–College Station area. I have 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets like they’re my own. From energetic puppies to older dogs, I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of time for pet care. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for drop-in visits, and I always make sure pets get consistent, timely care. I always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I carefully follow all instructions, keep a close eye on pets during visits, and make sure they feel secure and relaxed. I respect your home and keep everything clean, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re 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.

I am able to walk, pick up, and transport pets as needed. I personally have a lot of energy, so I will happily run around with your pets to get the energy out!
About: The hardest part of traveling isn’t leaving home — it’s leaving the ones who don’t understand why you’re gone. 💙 That’s why every visit is about more than food, walks, or playtime.

You’ll receive regular photos and updates, so you can relax knowing exactly how your pet is 🏡 Respect for Your Home: I treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own — keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them. Safety First: Leashes, gates, doors, and outdoor areas are always double-checked, and pets are never left in unsafe situations or unfamiliar environments. 💗 All in all -- Individualized Care: Every pet is different. Whether your companion is energetic, anxious, shy, or a senior, I adapt my approach to what helps them feel most comfortable.
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life, and caring for them is truly a passion rather than just a service I provide. I have extensive hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, as well as birds, goats, chickens, pigs, and some horses. I’m comfortable with daily care routines, administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior, and providing patient, attentive support—especially for senior animals or those needing extra care. I believe animals communicate in their own way, and I take the time to understand their needs, personalities, and comfort levels so they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s energetic playtime, quiet companionship, or farm-style care, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am looking to make this my full time job/ passion. I love animals and believe they are part of our families and deserve to live their best lives while they are with us. I have a 8 foot fenced yard, our dogs are up to date on all vaccines and believe all animals should be. I believe when walking dogs they should always be on a leash, for their safety and the walkers.

I’ll take the time to get to know your dog’s routine, personality, and quirks, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, check-ins, or overnight care, you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands. Pets are my priority! I will have plenty of time to play with your pup on weekdays after 4 pm and on the weekends! Thank you I will make sure to take care of every need of your pet.

About: I grew up with multiple dogs for many years taking care of them, playing with them, taking them to the vet. I haven’t met many pets that don’t take a liking to me. I just moved a good distance so my schedule is pretty flexible for a while. I should have plenty of time for your tail wagging friends. I’ve found that many pets are different from each other and require different needs. I’ll gladly take any info or tips specific to your pet to ensure they get the care they need.
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.
About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, whether it’s family, friends, or my own pups, I’ve always been the one they trust. Dogs are more than pets to me, they’re family, and being around them brings me true joy. I’m reliable, loving, and treat every dog like my own. I’d love to help care for your furry friend! I work full-time from home, which makes it easy for me to provide walks and care throughout the day. I'm available after 5 PM on weekdays, and I'm fully available on Saturdays and Sundays. Your pup will be in caring hands with a flexible and attentive sitter! I offer dog walking, drop-in visits during my available times, and occasional dog sitting in your home. I love spending time playing, feeding, and making sure your pup feels safe and happy while you're away.
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.

“Youjin is absolutely amazing! To start, she was great a communicator from the moment we requested our boarding service. We did a meet and greet in advance, and she was even more hospitable and friendly than we anticipated from the numerous other positive reviews described of her. We felt we would have little to worry about if we left our fur babies in her hands, and to no surprise, our pups had an amazing time. Youjin kept us informed, asked us questions, and showed an immense amount of care and affection. Her patience and willingness to accommodate any situations that arises speaks to the kind-hearted person that she is. She went above and beyond the title of a "dog sitter". Whatever magic she's worked has also kept the doggos calm and peaceful since returning home. We would highly recommend Youjin, as well as let her care for our dogs again! 12/10 exceeded expectations”
“Where to begin, Jingyi was always consistent and made our first time away from Yogi stress free! She never hesitated to keep me updated with pictures and videos!!

“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!”

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!”

We received plenty of pictures and updates during the boarding. I will happily book them again!”
