She kept us updated a few times per day every day to know how they were doing and sent us over 120 photos in a week (on average more than 10 per day). She truly deserves more than 5 stars.”

“This is the second time Joanna is taking care of my Maltese dog, it was an amazing experience with such careful attention. She sent me constant updates and also is helping to train her while sitting my dog. It is so nice to have someone to trust to take care of our dog when needed. I am already booking the next time. Awesome experience!!!”

We got lots of updates on how Lucy’s weekend was going . We are so happy to have found such a caring, loving pet sitter. We will definitely be calling Ninfa again.”

“Kaylyn and Naman are great pet sitters! I highly recommend them. They took great care of our dog Alli, she was very happy and relaxed with them! They were attentive to her every need and always made sure she had walks and outside time. Alli had an eye problem and they took really excellent care of her. I would definitely trust your pets with them, they’re great!”


“Derek and his family were wonderful with Jace. This was my first time ever using Rover for boarding my dog, and they made the experience so comfortable and easy. I received pictures and updates throughout the stay, letting me know he was doing well and having a good time. Will definitely have Jace stay with them again!”
“We are SO glad that we boarded Valentina with Erica and Kyle! They have the sweetest family and Valentina loved her time with them so much that she didn’t want to leave!

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Baxter received from Ray! Since this was our first time leaving Baxter with Ray, we were a little nervous, especially since Baxter was staying for only two days. But Ray immediately made us feel comfortable and reassured us that Baxter was in good hands. Throughout his stay, Ray kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful seeing Baxter looking happy, relaxed, and comfortable. Ray was attentive to his needs, gave him plenty of love and attention, and made sure he was well cared for. When we picked Baxter up, he was happy and completely at ease, which told us everything we needed to know. We could tell he had a great time and was genuinely cared for. Thank you, Ray, for taking such wonderful care of Baxter and making his first stay with you such a positive experience. We truly appreciate the updates, love, and attention you gave him. We’re so glad we found someone we can trust, and we would definitely book with you again!”

I highly recommend her to anyone worried about leaving their cats home alone.”

About: I've had pets my whole life and know how much it matters to leave yours somewhere you trust. Your dog will be part of the household here — not crated in a back room — with plenty of attention, a regular routine, and photo updates so you know how the day is going. A few things to know about my setup: I have a yard, but it isn't fenced, so all potty breaks and outdoor time are leashed and supervised. Never off-leash. I have one dog of my own, a friendly female Bernedoodle named Dorothy. She's good with other dogs, and I'm happy to do a meet-and-greet first to make sure everyone gets along. I work from home, so your dog won't be alone for long stretches. Comfortable with puppies, senior dogs with special needs, and everything in between. For walks, I'll stick to whatever route and pace your dog is used to, and I'll let you know how it went. Happy to set up a free meet-and-greet before booking anything. My schedule is completely my own so I can tailor my day to what your dog is used to. Our usual routine is a walk/run in the morning and a walk with the whole family in the evening. Dorothy is crate trained and so can be right next to your dog to keep them company. I have a good sized yard where I can let the dogs out on leashes and a fenced in deck if they want to be outside. I live 5 minutes from an animal hospital and am used to the random ailments that come with taking care of dogs.
“Deeksha was very sweet and patient with Kai. My dog is very shy, but he quickly felt comfortable around her. She also sent me many pictures of Kai as updates, which I really appreciated. Another thing I truly value about her is that she is punctual and always on time. My schedule is usually very busy, so I don’t have much time to waste. She even waited outside for me during pickups, which was incredibly helpful. I 1000% recommend her!”

About: We’re a dependable mother–daughter pet-sitting team with 30 years of combined experience caring for, training, fostering, and loving animals of all shapes and sizes. 🐾 Over the years, we’ve cared for dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, birds, fish, and many other pets. Our own family has included Whippets, Labs, Shepherds, Mastiffs, Basset Hounds, and Chihuahua mixes, and as sitters and fosters we’ve cared for many more breeds—including Bulldogs, Retrievers, Huskies, Poodles, Mountain Dogs, Great Danes, and plenty of wonderful mixed breeds. 🐕 🐕🦺 🦮 🐩 One of us is working toward dog-training certification, and we both have puppy-training experience. 🦮🚶♀️ We gently reinforce good habits, routines, and leash manners through patience, consistency, TLC, and positive handling. Most importantly, we understand that every pet has its own personality, pace, and needs. As home owners ourselves who have lived in three different neighborhoods in the DMV, we specialize in providing attentive, respectful, and reliable care while keeping your pets comfortable in the surroundings they know best--your home! When your pet stays with us, they become part of the family. Our home is set up with safety and comfort in mind, with a secure fenced yard, indoor gates, and separate spaces when pets need a little room of their own. Our designated pet areas—including our family room—are cleaned at least once daily and stocked with plenty of blankets, toys, and chew toys. 🪢 🥎 🧺 (See photos attached to our profile). Our cats stay comfortably upstairs, giving them their own space away from visiting dogs. Most important, someone is always home with your pets. They get lots of companionship, attention, affection, and access to our outdoor space whenever they want it.

When we welcome you pets into our home, someone is always home with them. We are experienced dog walkers comfortable caring for pets in urban, suburban, park, and country settings. Whether your dog enjoys neighborhood walks, park outings, or a calmer pace, we adjust to each pet’s personality, energy level, and routine. For pet sitting in our home, we have a gated kitchen/family room area where pets can stay safely with us, as well as a fenced patio where they can get fresh air and companionship. We have the ability to separate your pets from other pets if that helps them feel secure. We can also crate your pet if that is part of their normal routine or helps them feel secure.

About: I provide thoughtful, home-based care for dogs who thrive in a calm and structured environment. As a work-from-home sitter, I’m able to give consistent attention, supervision, and a steady routine throughout the day. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and temperaments, and I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and safety. What sets me apart is that I keep things intentionally small and controlled. I take the time to understand each dog’s needs, and prioritize a low-stress experience with plenty of outdoor time, gentle structure, and a secure fenced yard. I also require a meet-and-greet to ensure the right fit, so every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after.I keep my care intentionally small so each dog gets consistent attention and a calm environment. Doggy care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and am able to provide consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day.Dogs in my care are part of a calm, structured routine that includes regular outdoor time in my fenced yard, walks on nearby trails ( My fenced backyard opens directly to walking trails for easy access to outdoor time and walks) along with plenty of time to rest and relax indoors. I build my schedule around the dogs I’m caring for, making sure they get a good balance of activity, attention, and downtime. On a weekly basis, I keep things predictable and low-stress, which helps dogs settle in comfortably. I’m mindful about not overbooking, so each dog receives the time and attention they need without feeling overwhelmed. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, their care and routine remain consistent so they feel safe and at ease... When pets stay in my home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow each dog’s feeding schedule, potty routine, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. Dogs have regular access to my fenced yard for bathroom breaks and outdoor time, along with walks on nearby trails depending on their energy level. Inside the home, dogs are given a calm space to relax and are never left unsupervised for long periods since I work from home. I introduce dogs thoughtfully and only take on a small number at a time to maintain a safe and low-stress environment. I also pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall comfort, and I communicate with owners if anything seems off. My goal is to make their stay feel predictable, safe, and as close to their home routine as possible.
“Sherina took great care of Billie and sent updates throughout the day. I feel comfortable leaving Billie in her care and will definitely be booking Sherina in the future!”

“Kelsey is the best! She’s kind, gentle, honest, and communicative. I will be using her again in the near future. She was a God-send while I was recovering from an injury.”

“Francisco is an outstanding dog walker! He consistently goes above and beyond to make sure our dog is well cared for. After every walk, he communicates with me and provides thoughtful updates about how everything went, including anything he noticed that I should be aware of. What really stood out to me was his attention to detail and genuine care. During our last walk, it started raining, and he reached out to ask where he could find a towel so he could dry our dog off before leaving. That level of thoughtfulness meant a lot to me and showed how much he truly cares about the pets he looks after. I highly recommend Francisco to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. Your pet will be in great hands!”

“Keila was so amazing and patient with Ollie ! She went above and beyond to make sure Ollie was comfortable with her and he’s always tired after their walks. Highly recommend!”

About: I'm an animal lover who enjoys making new furry friends! I have always lived with cats and currently own 3. I'm skilled at giving cats medications and trimming their nails if those are services which interest you. My dog experience includes taking care of dozens of puppers and volunteering at the Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center (PRC). I also have experience caring for less common pets such as chinchillas, snakes, and turtles (and plants!) Don't just take my word for it, check out reviews from past pet owners. Shoot me a message if you'd like to utilize my skills! I work full-time and exclusively from home. I'm flexible with scheduling because I know how life can be. My ideal times for services are early mornings (around 7 am) and early evening (around 5 pm) on weekdays in addition to weekends. I often ride my bike to make my visits. If a zero-carbon drop in appeals to you, let me know and I'll make it a priority :D I can only take care of pets outside of my home because I have a cat who hates dogs and will attack them on sight.

During the weekend I can spend the whole day with them and also at night or dog care. I don’t have dogs or cats in my home , so it will be easy if someone needs me to stay at my place with their dog/cat.

“Jennifer has been walking our dog Leo on a regular Tuesday/Thursday schedule (mornings and afternoons), and she’s been fantastic. She’s extremely dependable and always communicates well in advance if there’s ever a schedule change. I feel completely comfortable having her care for Leo. What really stands out is how attentive she is — when Leo got sick, Jennifer noticed right away and alerted me immediately so I could get him to the vet. That kind of attentiveness and care goes well beyond just walking the dog. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable dog walker!”

I have also done many "Sniff Abouts" for the local animal shelter. I have experience with senior dogs and dogs of all sizes. Though I've never owned a cat, I have loved the times I get to pet sit them as well. I'll treat your fur baby like part of the family! I'm a stay at home mom with a husband who works from home so my schedule is very open. I'm very flexible and can work around most anything. We treat our own pets like members of our family and I'll do the same for yours. Our pets are special and deserve the absolute best care!
“Hana is a superb dog walker. She arrived on time and was gentle with our Patches, immediately connecting with her and putting her at ease. We will definitely be using her again and recommend to anyone needing a reliable and gentle person to handle your little fury one.”


“My dog stayed with me for a few months and because of my job, it's hard for me to predict when I will need a dog walker in advance. Despite my many last minute asks, Edward K. helped me by taking care of Oreo. His communication was great. The pictures he sent indicated that Oreo really liked him and had a great walk each time. Most importantly when I got home I could tell that Oreo's walk with Edward made him more peaceful and settled during my long days away from him. Oreo is going back to live with his family in Ohio for a season but I just wanted to thank Edward publically for helping out in this really meaningful way!”

I would definitely trust your pets with them, they’re great!”

But Ray immediately made us feel comfortable and reassured us that Baxter was in good hands. Throughout his stay, Ray kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful seeing Baxter looking happy, relaxed, and comfortable. Ray was attentive to his needs, gave him plenty of love and attention, and made sure he was well cared for. When we picked Baxter up, he was happy and completely at ease, which told us everything we needed to know. We could tell he had a great time and was genuinely cared for.

We’re so glad we found someone we can trust, and we would definitely book with you again!”

That’s what I’m here for :) I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and love dogs! I’ve been caring for dogs for many years and have experience with the day-to-day responsibilities that come with having a pet. I’m patient and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, and I want them to have the best time while they’re in my care! Whether your pup wants a good walk, some playtime, or simply a lot of love and attention, I’ll meet them where they are. I have a pup of my own: a blue heeler/pomsky mix, so I’m no stranger to energetic personalities and their little quirks! If you’re looking for someone who will give your dog plenty of care, attention, and love, I’d love to meet you both! I’ll also be sure to send many updates throughout their care. I currently work full-time during the week, so I’m primarily available on weekends (Friday evening to Sunday), with some weekday evening availability depending on the day. I’m happy to work around your dog’s usual routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. Whether you need someone for a walk, a drop-in visit, or weekend dog sitting, I’d be happy to help! I live in a townhouse with a small, unfenced yard, as well as a large grassy area and plenty of walking paths nearby for walks, sniffs, and exploring. I also have my dog, Peter, so our dogs will be sharing a home together. Peter loves making new friends and getting playmates! While I’m sitting, I’ll be home with the dogs most of the time, if not all, aside from the occasional short errand when needed. If you and your pup are comfortable with car rides, I’m also happy to take them to nearby parks and trails to explore! I’ll always follow your instructions and your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. When caring for your pup in their home, I would love to take them for walks, stay in for some playtime and cuddles, or simply follow whatever routine and activities they enjoy the most!
“Carla and family is amazing. I boarded biscuit in the last minute and they treated biscuit as their own dog. Biscuit had an amazing time there and Carla sent me a lot of pictures and updates on biscuit. I will highly recommend Carla !!”

“Elena and her daughter Anna far exceeded our expectations. Our little Mandy has never stayed overnight with anyone outside of our family and luckily we were able to find Elena. Elena and Anna seemed to have given Mandy as much love and attention as she gets at home. They showered us with pics and updates to ensure we were at ease while we were away. We will definitely be reaching out again when we are unable to take Mandy on our travels because we know she will be in good hands.”

“I love using Candice to take care of Ahsoka. She is reliable and flexible and consistently sends me pics, and she was this time as usual. I look forward to hiring Candice again.”

“Poornima was amazing! She helped us out last minute over the weekend and took such good care of our dog. She kept us updated with texts and videos, which made us feel so much better while we had to be away unexpectedly. Our dog looked happy, relaxed, and totally comfortable with her. We’re really grateful for how kind, thoughtful, and reliable she was. We’d happily book with Poornima again and definitely recommend her!”

“Leanna was an absolute delight. Our meet-and-greet prior to my pup's stay was very professional, and her calm demeanor made me feel at ease. She was extremely transparent about her schedule with the other dogs and asked all the right questions to ensure I felt comfortable leaving my baby with her for a few days. During my pup's stay, I received updates and photos, which further reassured me. Communication was always prompt. I highly recommend Leanna and her cozy home.”
