“Michelle always does a great job sitting my dog. I had a last minute trip planned and she was able to accommodate. I even had a delayed trip back home and she was very flexible which I appreciated.”
“My dog Boomba came back from her 9 day stay with Damacia a happy dog! Damacia was easy to stay in touch with and sent me photos and updates daily. I would def book with Damacia again!”
“Cindy was amazing at caring for my two dogs, Loki and Tashi. Dogs have a sixth sense of humans and as soon as they entered her home they were excited and happy. Cindy sent us photos of our dogs which was an adorable touch. For once, my husband and I were relaxed and were able to enjoy our outing without worrying about our dogs. We were disappointed that our dogs were not that excited to see us when we picked them up. That meant they had a great time at Cindy's. So much so that they crashed shortly after we got home. They were exhausted from their exciting day with Cindy and her adorable daughter. We are so delighted to have found Cindy.”
“Elizabeth agreed to watch my dog last minute and was very accommodating and kind! She sent me a lot of pictures and updates and made it feel like I wasn’t even away from my pup! I definitely look forward to booking with her again.”
“Laura had my dog nova for a week.Great with keeping you updated on your pet.Nova had a blast will definitely use Laura again.My dog was sad to go home that’s how much fun she had”
“Can’t recommend Angelica enough! She took amazing care of my brand new three-month-old puppy and he definitely loved every minute. She’s super responsive and responsible and was dialed in on every detail, plus sent frequent detailed updates, which I loved. She’ll be my go-to forever!”
“Hilary was an amazing sitter for my girl, she took her for runs, played extensively and even made time to always keep me informed. I would trust her again and again and really appreciate the peace of mind she offered while I was away. ❤️”
“Kendra was great! This was Yasha’s second time staying with her in less than a month. Goes to show how reliable she is and how comfortable she makes you feel, leaving your fur baby with her. She truly cares. I appreciate all the photo’s and updates as well. It’s good to know my baby is having a good time while I am vacationing. No more guilt! lol”
“Wow, just wow! My little Molly girl was so well taken care of by Shannon and her sweet family! I feel so fortunate to have found her and Molly had a great time. Shannon sent frequent updates and photos and when I went to pick up Molly, Shannon gave me two beautiful photos of my little beagle. I will definitely be placing Molly with her again! ?”
“Can’t say it enough, Matt is great! I had to make a last minute change to Sawyer’s stay. Matt worked it out and made the process seamless and stress-free. Highly recommended!”
“Dawn was so sweet taking care of my puppy! It was my first time leaving him for an extended period of time and Dawn made the whole experience completely stress free! I got pictures and updates 3 times a day and it was evident that Willie was having a great time :) I can’t recommend Dawn highly enough!”
“Dale and Cyrus had a great time with Laura, DJ, and family! Communication was very easy and we were provided photo and text updates during the stay. We could tell they were having a great time and were treated extremely well. We picked up two very happy and healthy dogs! We will definitely book again for future trips.”
“Ayme was great. She came highly recommended and for good reason. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her and knew he was in good hands. She was responsive and sent photos of our dog throughout the weekend. Would recommend!”
“Grateful to have found Aaren and Jordon. I felt comfortable trusting our boy with them the moment we met. We appreciated the great communication and the pictures/updates we received during Apollo‘s stay. Plus he got plenty of walking in so we know he loved that. Will be rebooking when that time comes. Thanks guys!”
“Excellent sitter. She was so professional and caring. She walked him she played with him. I got pictures everyday. Bruno got along with her baby. They became good buddies. I can tell Bruno miss Snoop her pet. When I have to go away again I definitely want Myrna to be the sitter. You will feel good about leaving your pet with her”
“Ashley was amazing! Chessnut had a wonderful time with her and her dogs, and I got a ton of check ins and pictures. It was wonderful to not have to worry whatsoever about my pup when I was travelling. I will definitely book with Ashley for boarding again!”
“From start to finish, Michaela did a wonderful job watching our little dog Coco! She always responded in a timely manner and kept in touch with us, sending pictures and updates daily. We’re so grateful that Coco was loved and taken well care during our trip abroad. We would highly recommend Michaela if you should need a loving and caring pet sitter!!🥰🐾”
“Rachel was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute after our original sitter canceled, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She was incredibly flexible, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel at ease knowing our pups were in good hands. She also has two dogs of her own, and they got along great with ours, which made the experience even better. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for.

“Tara took care of our cat Evonne with drop-in visits all week, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Evonne clearly loved her, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Tara was very reliable and did a great job keeping us updated after each visit. She sent regular photos and messages so we could see how Evonne was doing, which we really appreciated. It was obvious that she spent quality time with her and made sure she was comfortable and cared for. We would absolutely recommend Tara to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter, and we’d be happy to book her again in the future.”
“Teresa was excellent with my large, often anxious, cat Sherlock. Upon my return I found a happy Sherlock with none of the usual stress symptoms. Teresa also communicated frequently and sent photos of all the snuggles and other antics Sherlock got up to each day. It was great to see my cat happy while I was away!”
“Meghan was great! I really appreciated her coming over before my trip to make sure she knew how to get in, and access the food. Would definitely recommend her to others! Thank you!!”
“Kay was a wonderful sitter for my three cats for my last minute trip out of town. The photos and notes she left in her reports made it obvious she was paying attention to each of their very different personalities and preferences and that even my very human-selective older cat was comfortable with her. If she is available, I will absolutely hire her again.”
About: Happy to play, cuddle, or just let them have a quiet place to settle. I have no problems taking care of your baby. While I'm newer to cats my partner has fostered kittens to elderly cats and is passing on their knowledge.
“Janet is extremely caring and responsible! She goes beyond to be sure my three crazy kitties get what they need even when they are being stubborn (a cat? No way!). She is always my first contact when we need pet care.”
“Superb - love the communication and pictures - we felt very secure that our kitties were cared for by someone who was more than capable and very caring. Thank you, Audrina so very much.”
“Marissa ensured Boris got important time sensitive medications. She sent a couple photos to let me know how he was doing. She is responsible and caring.”
“My cat is very unsure of people, especially without me present. Damacia was so patient with him and seems to have won him over. The updates I get when he does something funny or surprising will give you a good laugh and make you feel connected with your pet from wherever you are. Damacia has truly gone above and beyond for Wendal and I. I highly recommend booking.”
“We love how much Virginia communicates with us about our complicated kitties. She brought in our mail/packages while we were away and kept our house tidy from cat-induced messes. Would definitely have her again!”
“Amazing is an understatement! My two cats have grown so comfortable with Amanda (and so quickly!); she is so good with them. She did an incredible, I mean truly unbelievable, job socializing with my people-averse, scaredy-cat kitten to the point where, instead of hiding, she hears Amanda and comes out to play. Even my senior baby boy who is grumpy in my absence is less moody when Amanda visits. On top of all of that, Amanda is a total professional in every aspect; she’s an excellent and active communicator, shows immense mindfulness in the execution of her work, and is so respectful when in my home. I’m sincerely so grateful for her!”
“We were happy to have Eryn look after our cat (Kitty) over a 4th of July weekend trip. Our planned sitter fell through at the last minute and Eryn was able to jump in and help us out. She did some drop-in visits with him, checked his water and scooped his litter box. Everything went well and she even brought in a package that we forgot was being delivered. We recommend her to other cat owners!”
“Daniela was very responsible and attentive. When I got home, everything was in great order—the kids were healthy and energetic, and the rooms and kitchen were clean. My cats are quite affectionate, and Daniela patiently played with the kittens. We missed our cats a lot during the trip, and the photos she sent really brought us joy.”
“Sidney was so gentle and loving to our shy kitty! Bambino took to her immediately and when we came home, he was a happy clam as if we hadn’t even been away! We would 100% recommend her and will be booking her again for our future getaways 🥰. Thank you so much, Sidney!”
“Erica was so patient and caring with Bentley. We met prior to my vaca to walk through the instructions. She was so accommodating and punctual in getting to each check in. Followed all the steps I gave her for Bentley and for the house. Took pics and kept me updated through oir vaca. I would definitely rebook with Erica again.”
“Julia is amazing! She's dependable, easy to communicate with, and it's obvious she really loves animals. We really appreciate the updates she sends and the peace of mind knowing our pup is getting great care while we're away. We're so glad we found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”
“Shannon did an awesome job on her drop-in visits with our three cats. Our home was also in great shape when we returned; all cat waste was handled properly. There is huge peace of mind knowing that our furkids are happy when we leave home.”

“Cindy is a wonder! My scaredy-dog loves her, and went to her willingly even though it had been a long time since his last visit. She asked if I’d like her to give him a bath, and that was a very welcome addition. Thank you Cindy!”
“I just recently found Ayme & I have booked with her twice in one week!!! I chose her because of her extensive positive reviews & for the fact that she has a nice backyard. Upon meeting her, she is warm, kind & welcoming. My adopted chocolate lab has separation anxiety, which has been getting worse. He becomes immensely anxious when I leave him and he can’t be left alone at all, or else he barks non-stop. He doesn’t love doggy daycare because it’s too many dogs, not enough human interaction and no outside time. He has done well with Ayme twice so far for day care and I look forward to using her services consistently to get him familiarized with her & being away from me. I totally recommend Ayme!”
“William was great with Church and very attentive throughout the day. He made sure Church was comfortable, safe, and well cared for, and I appreciated the communication and updates. It gave me peace of mind knowing Church was in good hands. I would definitely book again and recommend him to others looking for reliable doggy day care.”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10. Family, friends, and friends-of-friends have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and house sit their pets. I currently live in a multi-pet household with multiple dogs and cats. I am now a senior at Michigan State University, pursuing a degree in animal science. I have taken companion animal science courses and worked hands-on with a wide range of animals. I have learned how to provide CPR and first-aid for pets as well. During school I have also worked for a doggy daycare, consisting of taking care of up to 80 dogs at a time in a cage-free environment! This consisted of assisting dogs of all ages and sizes in specific food schedules/requests, administering medications, and keeping a safe and fun environment for all. During my time here I learned how to read the body language of a wide-range of dogs. I will cater to just about any needs you request when it comes to caring for your pet in your home. If your pet needs walked, fed, or let outside at specific times, I will be there to provide it all. Just ask, and I’ll let you know whether I will be a good fit for caring for your pet(s). I'm currently in school at Michigan State University pursuing a degree in Animal Science, I commute to campus so when I don't have classes I am full-time in Greenville area. Classes may take up a couple hours on certain weekdays, but outside of that time your pets will be my priority. I am also enlisted in the Army National Guard, so I am unavailable one weekend a month. During that time I may be available for evening dog walks or an evening drop-in visit, otherwise I will not take any pets if I know that I can't provide the time and care they need. During the Meet and Greet I will take in any information needed to care for your pets and cater to any needs you wish. I want to provide a comfortable experience for your pets while also adhering to their routines and rules. I want to provide a fun and safe experience for your pets while you are away! This requires me to collect as much information as I can on your pets including triggers, routines, medications, small house rules and limitations, emergency information, treats/food information, and of course enjoyable activities that your pets love. During any service I will also provide updates and pictures as much as possible without interrupting your time away too much. I work a fulltime job and have a dog and cat of my own. If my availability doesn’t fit the needs of your pet, I will let you know immediately to ensure both my pets and your pets get all of the care they need! I do not provide care in my own home, although I’ll happily provide care in your home. The care received will be discussed during the meet and greet, if your pet requires any specialty care I will gladly work with it and provide them with an enjoyable environment. I like to make sure that I am sticking to their routines to provide as much comfort as possible while they are missing you.
“Joyce is great! She takes care of my dog Banana on a daily basis while I’m at work & is constantly working with my crazy sales schedule. Joyce takes great care of Banana, making sure she’s fed twice a day, has pleeenty of potty breaks & all the love & affection she could ask for! She even sends me daily pictures of my old pup throughout the day, which always cheers me up! 10/10, would recommend 😊”

About: Hey there! My name is Veronica M., I’m a Licensed Massage Therapist in Richmond. I have a Certification in Dog Handling as well as Canine and Feline Massage Therapy & Reiki. Having a dog with separation anxiety has given me firsthand understanding of dog behavior and special needs pups. I’ve had an affinity for animals since my childhood, growing up with and taking care of our 2 black labs and a rescue jack russell. I continued my interest in animals through volunteer work with the SPCA & working as a kennel technician at a local doggy day care and boarding facility. There I fed, watered, and played with all different breeds of dogs as well as administered medicine as needed. Throughout, I continued dog and house sitting for family, friends, and referred clients. Later, after receiving a License in Massage Therapy, I decided to continue on the path of animal care and earned a certificate in Animal Massage, primarily canine and feline. Here I also earned a certificate in dog handling. I learned about dog behaviors and pathologies in depth. Now, I care for my 2 black lab mixes and my black cat, my babies!! <3. I look forward to meeting you and your animals!

About: Hi there! 👋 I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience working with a wide range of animals—from dogs & cats to dolphins & elephants (yes, really!). I’ve spent most of my career in high-energy, professional animal care settings, but these days I’m embracing a more low-key lifestyle and focusing on what I love most: giving animals the personal attention and care they deserve. I’m happy to work with any furry friends, but I specialize in animals that are more difficult to handle—whether they’re shy, reactive, high-energy, or need extra patience and support. With years of hands-on experience with many different species, I’m confident in my ability to manage a wide range of behaviors and needs. I bring a calm, steady presence that helps pets feel safe and understood, and I focus on keeping their environment low-stress and consistent with their routine. If you’re looking for someone with a professional background, and a genuine passion for animals, I’d love to meet you and your furry (or not-so-furry) family member! I have a flexible but consistent work schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit in care visits throughout the week. Since I already spend most of my time around animals, being with your pets will be a natural part of my day! I’m happy to work out a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and keeps things running smoothly for everyone. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I focus on keeping things calm, comfortable, and consistent with their routine. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs—whether they love playtime, quiet companionship, or a little of both. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

I can tell Bruno miss Snoop her pet. When I have to go away again I definitely want Myrna to be the sitter. You will feel good about leaving your pet with her”
“Rachel was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute after our original sitter canceled, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She was incredibly flexible, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel at ease knowing our pups were in good hands. She also has two dogs of her own, and they got along great with ours, which made the experience even better. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“They took great care of our large dog and followed extra care precautions he needed. We were never worried as we got a picture daily with an update. Thanks again and we will use you again soon!!”
“Abby was great! I appreciate that she took the time to meet my boy before his stay to ensure that all the 4 legged friends would be suitable together. I asked for lots of pictures and videos and she delivered. It's difficult being away from my boy so getting constant updates was a huge plus!”
“I cannot recommend Raven highly enough! She was absolutely phenomenal. This was my first time leaving my dog, Pepper, with her, and she made both of us feel incredibly welcome from our initial meet-and-greet. Throughout my trip, she kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Pepper was happy, having fun, and making new friends. Raven also provided transportation services to deliver Pepper to one of my family members, and the entire experience was handled flawlessly and professionally. My mom is still talking about how kind she was and how exceptional her service was. I can't wait to book with Raven again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pet like family!”
“Jesse has done a wonderful job taking care of my 7 year old Samoyed! He provides good photo updates, his dogs are friendly, and drop-off/pick-up is always easy. I would highly recommend, and look forward to using his services again in the future.”
“Deven and Tyreek provided excellent care for our dog while we were away and sent photos of her every other day. We really appreciated the piece of mind they provided so that we could enjoy ourselves!”
“Jeffery, as advertised, is chill and he is WONDERFUL. Definitely a dog lover and really cared for our pup. Perfect with communication and sending pics and updates.”
“First time having my dog watched by Zach he did everything I asked of him and more and on top of that was extremely friendly and kind! My dog had an accident or two didn't, cause a issue about it while I was for business I would definitely recommend leaving your dog with him”
“Sherri is very caring and honest. I was happy that Maggie was in good hands for 1 1/2 days. Highly recommended. She has a heart of an angel. I am disappointed that she is moving to another state.”
