“We are deeply grateful to Lexmi for her exceptional care of our dog. Her evident love for animals and her attentive, responsible approach to their well-being make her someone we wholeheartedly and confidently recommend.”
“Nikkole was a wonderful sitter to my 2 mini dachshunds. She has a large fenced yard where they loved to play when they were outdoors and a comfy couch where my girls loved to lounge with her. Nikkole is easy to talk to and she sent daily photos and updates and was quick to respond to questions. I’m very grateful to be able to trust her with my little ones and will definitely use her again when the time comes. Thanks Nikkole!”
“Roger was an excellent communicator, highly flexible and super supportive. We loved his family as well, he had the perfect set up for our puppy . Denys lots of updates and photos . Would absolutely feel comfortable and confident anytime leaving Loki and ugh Roger. Highly, highly recommend Roger and his lovely wife and family .”
“Val was wonderful from the very start! She is very professional and I was so comfortable leaving my pup with her! She has many reviews and there is a definite reason! Thanks for taking such good care of my girl!”
“Kristin is amazing! We had an airbnb booked and couldn’t take our new puppy Luke. I reached out to her less than 24 hours before we needed to go, and she said yes! I could tell she’s a total animal person and took very good care of our dog. Luke even made a buddy with another pup friend who was being puppy sat today. We would utilize Kristen services again in a heartbeat!”
“Kathie is so great with the updates and photos of my pup! I know he’s always well cared for! He loves to going to see Kathie so much that I have to coax him in to leaving her house! 😆”
“Finding Diahann for a short notice was a blessing, she made the process stress free. She made time for a meet and greet a couple of days before my scheduled days. Which put me at ease. The home was beautiful, her family incredible welcoming. Plenty of backyard space for dog to run around and play. They took the time to explain their process, answering all my questions, made me feel comfortable leaving my dog in their care. I highly recommend her, and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Jaegan was great! He had amazing communication and sent pictures throughout Jack’s stay. I know Jack had the best time playing ball and enjoying the huge backyard with his new friends. We look forward to using Jaegan again!”
“From the moment we booked with Noelle we felt confident that our boy would be in very good care. Noelle exceeded all our expections, she is beyond amazing!!! We would get daily updates and photos. Jack got daily walks and play time with her sweet dogs. We will definitely be using Noelle's services in the future!”
“I cannot express the amount of detail and love that he puts into caring for our dogs. We've done everything you can imagine: dog boarding, PetSmart, friends and family but we've never had such an amazing experience with George and his lovely family. Our dogs were welcomed with such open arms while checking in with us to see how they are doing. The care they received was above and beyond and I couldn't be happier to make him out exclusive dog sitter :)”
“Dana took excellent care of our dog. She sent us pictures, made special treats, and stayed up late so we could pick up Jewels after our flight came in Saturday night. We really appreciated her above and beyond care giving to our little one. And Dana has other small dogs so Jewels had other dogs to play with and she loves playing. We would hire Dana again if needed.”
“Marisol is genuinely our favorite sitter that we’ve met! She and Milo have been so incredibly hospitable and welcoming. The amount of relief and excitement I feel knowing that my pup is not only cared for but spoiled and loved is amazing. My pup is excited to get there and when I come to pick her up, she doesn’t want to leave. THAT is the telltale sign of a wonderful human and home! Dolce 🩷’s Milo (and Marisol!)”
“Kristine was amazing with Boa and was incredible on communication and flexibility. Extremely thankful to find her and I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her for anyone looking for care for their pets!”
“Sally & her family did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs. She made us feel comfortable from the meet & greet onwards. We had never left them before and were anxious about doing it. But, Sally sent us lots of messages, photo's & videos during our week long trip away which reassured us that our dogs were doing fine in her care. We are so glad to have found her and will definitely have her take care of our pups again.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Julie & Dennis! From the very beginning, they were professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. They treated our dog like part of their own family and truly went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable and loved. We received regular updates and adorable pictures throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear he wasn’t just being “watched”, he was being spoiled with attention, affection, and thoughtful care. When we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. You can tell they truly love animals and take pride in what they do. We are so grateful to have found such kind, trustworthy people and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”
“Keri was outstanding! From the initial communication to the pickup at the end. She sent pictures almost daily of my two pets as well as regular updates on their status and well-being. Keri truly provided them with a second home while we were out of town. Highly recommended!”
“Katrina and her family were great with dog, Louie. We were in Thailand for two weeks but the pictures and updates that Katrina would send helped us to miss him just a little bit less. They took great care of him and we are already planning our next trip :)”
“I had such a great experience with Mariko! She was absolutely amazing with Hazy and made me feel so comfortable the entire time. I got regular picture updates, which really put my mind at ease, and I could tell Hazy was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It honestly felt like Hazy was on a little vacation of her own. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and loving with their pet. I’ll definitely be using her again!”

“My cat Charlee was content and happy when I arrived home after a 5 day vacation. Anna's daily visits made all the difference in keeping my cat feeling safe, secure & loved.”
About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets and animals, as well as working with livestock and poultry through my involvement in FFA. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in daily animal care, feeding, health monitoring, and maintaining clean, safe environments. What sets me apart is my ability to quickly understand each animal’s unique needs and behaviors, whether it’s a household pet or a farm animal, and provide calm, patient, and attentive care. My background in FFA has taught me responsibility, discipline, and respect for animals, and my genuine passion allows me to build trust with both animals and their owners. Pet care is a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently not working, so my schedule is completely open, allowing me to plan around consistent feeding, walks, and attentive care while being fully reliable and flexible for each pet’s needs. I care for pets in my home and my clients’ homes with patience, consistency, and respect for each animal’s routine. I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, birds, and livestock since I was a young child, which has taught me how to read animal behavior, meet individual needs, and provide calm, attentive care. I focus on proper feeding, exercise, cleanliness, and companionship while maintaining the animal’s normal schedule to reduce stress and keep them comfortable and safe.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Pets are truly one of the best blessings on Earth. I’m eager to follow your pet’s usual routine, whether that means walks, playtime, medication reminders, or plenty of cuddles. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved while their parents are away. I have experience with senior pets as well as animals with special needs (i.e. seizures), so if you are worried that your friend needs a little TLC, I am your girl! I currently have a flexible schedule for pet care. Starting in September, I will be working about 7-8 hrs on weekdays. I’m able to dedicate time to walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, as well as overnight stays. I’m happy to work around each pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the attention and care they’re used to. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. Many pets can experience anxiety when a new person enters their home, so I am attentive to the individual pet's needs, whether it is extra space or snuggles. I’m respectful of each client’s home and will keep things clean and tidy.
“I don’t know if you’re able to review a person more than once. But I had Andrhu coming for drop in visits during my long work hours because he lives just a few blocks away. I noticed my cat who is 15 took to him right away and he paid attention to my very *particular* requests about her care. Not only did I have a significant increase in my cats level of calmness - but literally at the LAST minute I saw that the sitter I use when I’m out of town had left my cat alone for almost 24 hours. Then pushed he out of bed when the cat tried to ask for minimal attention. To say I was crushed was an understatement. I was in complete tears. I have a lot going on and am kind of a single pet parent until my husband can join me in the USA. Andrhu AGAIN was a god send. One one days notice I let the other sitter go home for personal reasons and Andrhu agreed to stay - he was with her most all day every day. I came home today, my cat happy, playing with a ball at 15 years old. And now I am comfortable purchasing a kitten to make her (and I) even happier. Knowing I have Andrhu close by - he’s SO flexible. He’s honest and communicates expectations clearly which I appreciate and respect. The amount of guilt I carry about leaving her is at a zero. Down from about 200 on my last vacation. And now with our new addition coming - I consider Andrhu to be part of my cat tribe to make sure they’re all ok. I don’t want him to get completely booked (selfishly). But this is the relationship I needed for my sweet girl until my husband is allowed to live here - and for every vacation after. I highly recommend treating him with utmost respect. I have a guest set of linens, towels and hope Andrhu will help himself to anything food or drink in my home. At this point my home is him home and even if we haven’t met he is cat-family. Hire him whenever you can. The compassion he shows to even old pets it unmatched. I’m almost crying tears of joy from having my anxiety so much reduced in this difficult time in my life.”
“Leslie is great! She checks in on my cat when I am out of town. Making sure she gets her meds, food, and a clean litter box. I definitely recommend her to look after your pets!”
“My shy cats love Rhonda! She respects their space and lets them come out to interact and play when they're ready. Rhonda has watched our boys twice now and she's earned their trust quickly. My senior cat who hides from new people waits for Rhonda at the top of the stairs when he hears her come in!”
“I don’t mean to sound like a broken record every time I submit a review on Jessica, but she literally never disappoints! She some how amazes me and goes above and beyond than from the last time she pet sat for me. I always feel rest assured that my quirky cat will be taken care of when I’m away thanks to Jessica! I hope she is blessed with more pet sitting services as your pet will be blessed under her care.”
“Jazmyne did a great job with my senior cat. He gets very nervous when his mama is gone, but knowing Jazmyne was there gave me great comfort. She gave me daily updates and sent pictures, so I knew how my boy was doing each day I was away. She followed my directions to a tee, and kept me informed when anything seemed out of the ordinary. As a bonus, my house was spotless when I arrived home, which was SO nice to come back to after being gone for an extended weekend. Don’t hesitate to book with Jazmyne; she is very conscientious, and clearly loves the animals she cares for as if they were her own.”
“Kelli did a great job checking in our cats everyday while we were on vacation. Our social cat befriended her quickly and she was even able to convince our other notoriously shy cat to come out for some attention. Kelli’s communication and daily photo updates were clear and thoughtful. Our cats appreciated the clean litter box and head scratches, we will be contacting her again whenever our next trip happens.”
“Susan was a great sitter for my two cats when I went on a week vacation. She took great care of them and gave them plenty of love when I was away. I enjoyed receiving lots of pictures of them each day and updates.”
“Silvia goes above and beyond. She is trustworthy, reliable, conscientious and even asks about doing extras. I have zero concerns leaving our pet babes in her capable hands”
About: I’ve had cats in my life since a very young age! My first cat was an outdoor cat we inherited from our neighbors when I was 3. She found her way to our house and never left. I was the only one that could touch her and hold her. I love doing pop-ins for kitty clients, I have 3 cats at home that won’t allow kitties to spend the night with us.
“This is the second time I booked Simone. I just would like to add that not only she is great with my kitties but she also helped revived one of my sad eggplants. 🙏 i have a couple plants in my garden, and she and her daughters happily watered them during her check ins. I appreciate you Simone and your girls! Hope to work with you again in the future.”

“Our puppy had a wonderful time with Kristen and her dog, Chessie! This was the first time our puppy was away from us and Kristen offered reassurance, informal updates throughout the day, and the cutest pictures of our puppy enjoying his time. We look forward to using her services more in the future! I would highly recommend!”
“When my older Corgi and I were busy for several days, Odalys's daycare was the perfect for my younger Corgi! Easy drop off and pick up, great communication, and Knox came home happy and tired! It was great for him to be able to get out and move during the day and to get a chance to play!”
“Kristina was a great dog sitter, she took the time to meet our dog before taking care of her. She was lovely with our dog and also shared pictures and was very communicative. No doubt she will be the person/family that I want and I feel confident to leave my pet.”
About: I have volunteered with multiple animal shelters (including fostering), a big cat sanctuary, and has worked at a veterinary clinic and pet boarding facility. I will be your pet's main caregiver, and have also owned dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, ferrets, frogs, and turtles throughout my life. My partner Marlon loves to walk/run with dogs and has had dogs, and is a chicken lover as well! I am very prepared to handle many situations and pet personalities. I recently cared for our senior dog (18-years-old!) with medical needs, and fostered puppies, so I am very understanding of dog needs. I understand how to make dogs feel safe and part of our family, and will send daily pictures to you so you know they're in good hands. **Have pets that aren't dogs?** I also own a cat, chickens, two turtles, and frogs. I volunteer at a cat rescue and have volunteered at a big cat sanctuary, have had hamsters, ferrets, an iguana, axolotls, fish.... I can handle most animals, just ask! **Notes** - Rates are per 24 hours. There will be an additional late fee of $5.00 for every hour past the agreed time for pick-up, unless you clearly communicate with us about your timeline. - Housesitting includes an overnight stay and care as needed (feeding, walks, and potty breaks) throughout the day. I may need to care for other clients or my own pets, or go into work. If you require constant care (24hrs per day, animal cannot be left alone), this needs to be arranged beforehand and the price will be higher than my regular housesitting rate. I work from home so time for pet care is flexible, I usually have plenty of time for walks or hikes with dogs that are visiting. I have a fenced yard and have the ability to make zones within my home if it's necessary. I try to stick to the typical schedule the animals are used to, to the best of my ability and schedule.
“Toby had such a great experience with Dianna. Communication was outstanding from start to finish, and I really appreciated all the videos and photos throughout the day. It made it so easy to feel comfortable and know exactly how he was doing. She kept me updated on everything, including his feeding, potty breaks, and overall activity, which I loved. It’s clear she pays close attention and truly cares about the dogs she’s watching. I’m so happy we found Diahann and feel confident Toby is well taken care of with her. Drop-off and pick-up were smooth and easy, which made the whole process even better. Overall, an excellent experience and I can’t wait to bring Toby back!!”
“Jacklyn was great! Sent lots of (very cute!) pictures, walked McCoy, and made sure he got along with her own dog. McCoy was always happy to see her (and her dog) when we dropped him off. Jacklyn was also very responsive to us (e.g. when we had to modify our arrival/pick up time) which made our lives very easy.”

I own Awakening Companionship, a positive reinforcement training business. Having worked professionally and personally with a variety of dog ages, breeds and personalities, I understand the importance of personalized pet care! I currently work from home as a graphic designer, except for one or two days a week subbing at SBLSD or when I see dog training clients. I do have two cats and three senior dogs, so staying close to home for their needs would align with any pet I am caring for. *New Clients must be crated trained and have experience with cats* This is to ensure safety around my other pets during feedings and sleeping/naps.

Exercise and mental play are important to a happy pet, so whether at your house or mine, we make sure to pack in the fun!
“Joyce and her husband were wonderful with our Coco. They know dogs and worked so well with ours. He has a bit of separation anxiety, but Joyce and her dogs took care of that immediately. Loved the large fenced back yard and the fact that her 2 dogs were small so ours wasn’t intimated. Looking forward to working with her again.”
“Kristina is an amazing furbaby sitter, and we are so grateful for the care and attention she gives to Enzo every time he stays with her. Enzo is a regular with Kristina, which says a lot about the trust and comfort we feel leaving him in her care. She is dependable, kind, and truly treats him like family. We always appreciate the updates, love, and patience she gives him, and it gives us peace of mind knowing he is safe, happy, and well cared for. Enzo always comes home relaxed and happy, and we highly recommend Kristina to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter! 🐾”
“Our dog was instantly at home the moment he met Kathie. We had never left him with anyone before and this turned out to be a great experience. Now we know we can go away overnight and our dog will be right at home at Kathie’s house!”
“Kyley and her husband took wonderful care of my puppy! They have a huge, secure yard where the dogs can run and play, and it was clear my puppy had a great time. They are incredibly kind, friendly, and genuinely care about the pets they look after. I felt completely at ease knowing my puppy was in such good hands. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet sitters!”
“Anna and her husband took fantastic care of my pup! I felt very comfortable leaving him for the day for doggy day care with her. She sent lots of updates of him having a blast during his stay! I would recommend her to anyone, and would book again in the future! Thank you!”
“Sara is amazing. My boy looked so happy during his visit and he was still so happy and exhausted afterward! 10/10 would recommend and will be asking Sara to watch him again in the future.”
“Highly recommend Tim, he was great taking care of our two big saint bernards!! Super accommodating, he is very responsive, and great peace of mind when leaving our dogs with him.”
“Lexi and Victor were very easy going and responsive. We booked them so we could go hiking in Mount Rainier National Park for the day and it worked perfect. They were flexible and had great communication. Teddy had a great time.”

“Marlena was great with Rainy while I was gone for the day. Rainy's need and comfort were a priority for her. She also sent me several texts with photos for mt peace of mind. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Anthony has been so wonderful to work with for our fur baby! He is very caring and lets us k is how her day went as well as how she ate etc. We love the pictures of her playing with his pups and napping and the best endorsement was how excited she was next time we took her. My husband said she could hardly wait to get through the door! Thank you, Anthony! 🐾”
“Always an exceptional experience, and we never have to worry. I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle, Keith, and Lola — such a wonderful family. They’re personable, caring, and genuinely the best.”

“Andrhu is such a wonderful walker for our family, our girls really see him as a friend and playmate. He is so caring and really keeps our girls happiness and safety in the forefront if each visit. We feel such comfort knowing they are safe with him and that they have a great time playing, exploring and getting the daily stimulation we can't always provide when we are working”

“Simone is so so sweet and treats my pup so well, my dog is about 100lbs and is still in his adolescence so he’s pretty chaotic when he wants to be. He has a pretty structured training plan as he’s growing and maturing and she follows it to a T. If she won’t be available, she makes sure to let me know way ahead of time for me to find a backup. I can’t recommend Simone enough, my pup loves her!”
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs, and am familiar with many other kinds of animals. I have sat for non-family/friends and well as them included many times before! I have managed taking care of 5+ pets at once, given proper meds, care, playtime, etc. This experience ranges from kittens/puppies just a few days old, to older aged animals. I work “full time” but I work around 30 hours and I have a lot of split shifts so time before or after to check-in with the pets. This looks like morning feed, going outside, if any meds or vitamins need to be taken or same with after depending on the time of day needed. Depending on circumstances of boundaries and rules of each pet, I easily find a solution and adapt if needed. I will watch your dog/cat outside or on a leash front or back of yard. If there are off-limit areas inside our outside those will be closed doors or if there’s a gate it will be put up per clients request. If there needs to be check-ins with owner that be applicable, I am attentive to my phone, when and if necessary.

“Alright... where to begin! Brian did a wonderful meet and greet with my boys (two newfoundlands) and walked them today without me..that may seem like a strange thing to say but Byron (my younger boy) refuses to go on a walk for anyone but me - not even my husband! He was perfectly fine on going on the walk with Sinjin (my older boy) and Brian. No temper tantrums, no refusal to walk. NONE of it. Brian took them on a good walk, they had fun and their were no problems.”

“From the moment we booked with Noelle we felt confident that our boy would be in very good care. Noelle exceeded all our expections, she is beyond amazing!!! We would get daily updates and photos. Jack got daily walks and play time with her sweet dogs. We will definitely be using Noelle's services in the future!”
“I cannot express the amount of detail and love that he puts into caring for our dogs. We've done everything you can imagine: dog boarding, PetSmart, friends and family but we've never had such an amazing experience with George and his lovely family. Our dogs were welcomed with such open arms while checking in with us to see how they are doing. The care they received was above and beyond and I couldn't be happier to make him out exclusive dog sitter :)”
“Kristine was amazing with Boa and was incredible on communication and flexibility. Extremely thankful to find her and I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her for anyone looking for care for their pets!”
“Sally & her family did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs. She made us feel comfortable from the meet & greet onwards. We had never left them before and were anxious about doing it. But, Sally sent us lots of messages, photo's & videos during our week long trip away which reassured us that our dogs were doing fine in her care. We are so glad to have found her and will definitely have her take care of our pups again.”
“I had such a great experience with Mariko! She was absolutely amazing with Hazy and made me feel so comfortable the entire time. I got regular picture updates, which really put my mind at ease, and I could tell Hazy was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It honestly felt like Hazy was on a little vacation of her own. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and loving with their pet. I’ll definitely be using her again!”
“Total peace of mind while away! We were instantly relieved when our highly energetic pup immediately took to Keri and Kerry's family, yard and Beau :) This lovely family puts you at ease with their calm demeanor and years of knowledge and experience with dogs (including active puppies). They are exceptionally intuitive with new and old dogs. Our pup was so well exercised, daily, that it allayed our usual concerns of him getting into mischief. Keri and Kerry were always quick to respond and kept us informed daily. Communication was clear and easy. He was so well cared for that we were genuinely and regularly blown away when we received the pics of him laying contentedly, relaxing and getting pets and love from this wonderful family! Their love and ability to quickly identify and address your dog's needs will bring you the peace of mind needed to enjoy your time away. We will book with them from now on! Thank you Keri and Kerry!”
“Sheena is AWESOME! This was our first time using her and plan to keep using her in the future. Our initial meet and great was great he was introduced one by one to her pups. She sent me lot of photos and videos that myself and my kids loved as we are almost never away from him for extended periods of time. He had a true play-cation making lots of friends!”
“I don’t think there could’ve been a better first rover experience. Tiffany and her family have been an absolute gem to our family. They confirmed booking and messaged me right away, and every step along the way. I was provided many updates and photos of my pups having an absolute blast with their entire family. My dogs loved playing with their kids, and will definitely miss them 😭 I usually have family watch my dogs, but I will say I almost prefer them 🤣 (don’t tell my family 🫣) I will absolutely be rebooking for any other times of need!”
“Andrea and her family takes such great care of the pups every time they visit! We get regular updates and hear about their walks and play time. Thanks for taking such great care of Maya and Pip!”
“This was Aiko’s second time staying with Katherine, and just like the first, it was an outstanding experience. During his first visit, I was impressed by how quickly Aiko felt comfortable in her and her husband Peters home. Their calm, friendly energy really helped him settle in. I knew then that I’d found someone I could trust. On his second visit, Katherine and Peter went above and beyond yet again. From the moment I dropped Aiko off, she kept me in the loop with frequent text messages, photos, and videos of him playing and lounging. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was happy, safe, and having a great time. Aiko also got to spend lots of time playing with Reuben, Catherine and Peters English bulldog which he absolutely loved. The two of them are became great buddies, and it’s clear Katherine fosters a fun and safe environment where dogs can be social and active. She really understands the needs of energetic breeds like huskies and makes sure they get the playtime and attention they need. Aiko came home happy, relaxed, and completely worn out from all the fun. Katherine is reliable, kind, and truly treats your dog like family. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to book with her again. Thank you so much, Katherine, for taking such great care of my boy!”
“Our other kennel that we have used for 20 years was booked. One of our friends book her dog with Sara J all the time and has said amazing things about her. So we decided to try Sara. Sara sent pictures to us every single day. In every single picture, our dog was smiling. Our animals are our children. We want them happy while we are gone. At the end of the week we were wondering if Conn was going to want to come home because he was having so much fun. He was well kept and likes Sara. We will book with her again! Thank you Sara. Oh BTW he was tired when he got home and slept the entire evening!”
“This was our two large breed dogs first stay with Odalys. We went out of town for 6 night cruise and were inaccessible most of the time, but thankfully everything went great! I really appreciated all the updates and communication. I highly recommend her services! Thanks again Odalys!😊”
“we absolutely loved our experience with tim, his 2 fur boys, and his dad! nezuko came back from her trip happy and full of excitement. the dream took amazing care of her and she can’t wait for her next trip back to hangout with her new best friends!”
“Kristin was great to work with and she was very reliable and happy to have our dog in her home. She was very responsive and worked with us on any special needs for our dog. Kristin sent us pictures during the visit and kept us updated and was great about flexible drop off and pick up. We will definitely be using her again soon!”
