“Jordin was so awesome she kept me up to date and sent pictures on a daily this was my first time doing something like this I was nervous and scared. But jordin had reassured me greatly I will definitely be back for future bookings with her ! ❤️”

“Dennis & Lynn H are amazing people. Onyx loves them so much. They took care of my pup on short notice. I will recommend them for taking care of your pups. The communication was amazing, had pictures of my pup within 10 minutes of dropping him off. Love it so much. Will always use them whenever I need them.”

“Maggie is amazing! She took very good care of my senior dog and kept up with his medications perfectly! She also sent me adorable pictures each day she had him. Would highly recommend and would use her again!”
“This was the first time I left my dogs over night so I was extremely nervous but Michelle and Samuel were so great! They sent a ton of pictures and video. Most of all they cared about our dogs like their own. My dogs looked so happy and well cared for. Thank you both!!”

“Alyssa jumped in while Dane was out of town and made Lobster’s stay feel like a mini vacation. Lobster came along with his buddy Ren and they were straight into dog park adventures, backyard playtime, and running around with Lady (their adora-pup) like old friends. Between hanging out with Alyssa and her two daughters and all the fun outside, the dogs were clearly living their best lives. The steady stream of happy photos made it obvious they were having a blast and being so well cared for. We live 35 mins away from Dane and Alyssa, and the distance didn't bother us because we know our pup will be in good hands. We will book again and again!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Xiaotong! We left our two dogs with her for the first time and she took incredible care of them. She was very communicative and flexible with some schedule changes in our end and she sent plenty of photos. I can tell her and her family really love taking care of dogs and it was really obvious that our dogs were well loved when they were with her. 10/10 would book again!!”

“Jessi was amazing! My dog seemed to have a blast with her and her family. She was very responsive and sent me daily photos and updates of my pup. She was very understanding and flexible when I needed to add an extra day due to an emergency. I am certain that my dog was loved and extremely well taken care of with Jessi. Jessi truly went above and beyond! I will definitely be using her again and I highly recommend her to others.”

“Very nice couple. We booked them for a short stay and they took care good of ours boys, very flexible for drop off and pick up time, also always send pictures and updates! Thank you again”
“Glad to have left my Teddy at Kristina’s care. I knew he would be well taken care of while I was away. Kristina initiated the meet-and-greet which I very much appreciated. I’m always hesitant to just drop off Teddy somewhere new without meeting first so it was cool that Teddy got to meet Kristina and family and their fur baby Luna first before spending a few nights over. Kristina kept me updated with pictures and texts. And I’m grateful she adjusted time of pick up as well. Definitely recommend Kristina to watch your fur babies.”


“Marisol is such an amazing sitter! She was welcoming from the start. This was our first time ever leaving our puppy overnight and we had no anxiety. She sent timely updates and just went above and beyond. Marisol was very accommodating and adjusted her living room setup to make it more like home for our pup. She even sent our pup home with a treat! We are so thankful to have found a sitter we trust and can utilize for another overnight event.”

“Linda was wonderful and Nuggie was very well taken care of. She took him on frequent walks and provided updates throughout his stay. I would recommend and have my pets stay with her again without hesitation!”

“What a wonderful host for our special needs pug - didn't have to worry at all that she gave him the very best care when we had to be away for a family emergency. I'm sure he'll miss his little vacation!”


“Rikke and Larry were the best. We were on an 11 day vacation and felt comfortable leaving our 18 month Shiba with them. It was so nice receiving text messages and photos each day. I highly recommend Rikke and Larry...they are awesome!”
“Can’t say enough nice things about Sara and Michael. Our 2 dogs (monsters) are always so well taken care of and love “Camp Sara”. We’ve trusted Sara for long and short term stays for almost a year now and appreciate that we such a well-designed and personable service provider/caretaker for our family. The attention to detail is a differentiator - eg upon dropoff back at our house they checked (and filled) the water bowl, put our leftover wet food in the fridge and opened the dog door knowing our dogs were going to be home alone for a few hours before we got back. HIGHLY recommend.”

“She was great & our pups had so much fun! She has a big yard for them to run in with obstacle courses. We also got pictures & videos everyday which relieved our anxiety of leaving them. Will definitely rebook for the next time we go on another trip.”

“Betty and David are wonderful sitters! They always provide my dog the best care and attention and provide so many updates! If I could use them all the time, I would!”

“Carmen is an absolute dream and was incredibly helpful and the perfect fit to care for my iggy! Communication was smooth, fast and seamless. The photos and videos she sent were awesome, showing my ‘lil guy having a blast and “living his best life” ! She even had adorable little outfits that he wore during his stay! I can’t rate her professionalism, caring and thoughtful communication high enough! Especially as my iggy was not accustomed to being away from me, I was blown away how contented he was from the very start.”

“Jodi took care of our two little kits for 21 days! She loved them, cared for them, cuddles for them and administered their medicine with care and compassion. In fact, she taught me how to administer medication more safely - which I had no idea about. She was also great about walking my cat! She went above and beyond with updates and took the most adorable photos in the meanwhile. 1000/10, would recommend!!!”


“When we needed a sitter for our cats at the last minute, Kimberly was there for us with updates and letting us know that our girls would be taken care of. We really appreciate her helping us when we needed it!”

“Sarah was amazing with our 2 pretentious kitties! She respected their space and did a great job caring for them while the hoomans were away! Thanks so much for your attention to detail and being accommodating to our furbabies!”

“Rose is a great pet sitter. I enjoyed meeting her in person before my trip..she asked important questions I'd forgotten to mention! I got detailed descriptions of my cats along with pictures every day. I highly recommend her.”


“Morgan did really great with my mean Ole kitty cat! She doesnt do well at all with strangers but Morgan was patient and thoughtful which helped her build trust in Morgan and gave my cat time to warm up to her so she could feel safe when she visited. She was also very diligent about following my instructions for care which meant I was able to be fully confident in my cats care while I was out of the country for two weeks for my honeymoon. Very professional and timely and would work with her again.”

“Heather was amazing! Very communicative, which was especially helpful! Instantly got along with our little Whitney. Very glad Heather was looking after our little fur baby.”

“I always trust Issana with my baby cat any time I'm in need of a sitter. My cat is well taken care of with her and Issana is so caring and attentive with him. 10/10 would recommend ❤️”

“10/10 recommend. I was very happy to find somebody that I immediately trusted with my dogs and my home. Thank you for taking such good care of the boys. I'm more grateful than I can explain!”


“Cassie was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our cats while we were away and did all the things we asked. She provided great updates and was communicative and supportive throughout the weekend! Highly recommend her!! Will be asking her to watch our cats again!”

“We had a great experience! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and I always felt confident that Tanner was in good hands. He was well cared for, let out for potty breaks on schedule, and seemed happy and relaxed when we got home. I would definitely book again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”


“Monica is by far the BEST & most reliable cat sitter. Our cat is an escape artist & she kept him in our apartment and safe the entire month we were gone. She went above and beyond to send me hundreds of photos and videos while we were gone. Maintained a clean and safe area for the cats and when we came home our house was spotless. I’ve had 3 cat sitters in the past and Monica is by far the golden cat sitter. I’d hire her again in a heart beat & plan on doing so in the near future. I felt so at ease leaving Monica with my two cats!”

“First time using River and so glad we found Sara. Lucy was very happy and tired when she came home. Sara got some great shots of Lucy with her play date friends. Sara is great at communicating and we will take Lucy back again soon.”

“Francena is a loving, caring, and knowledgeable provider! She treats my senior Bichon like her own. She took prompt care of him when he was anxious (which he always is now that he is senior). She kept me posted and was very patient with his senior habits! She really knows dogs with all her experience in showing, breeding, grooming, and vet industries. I'm so happy to have found her!❤️”

About: I understand that every pup has their own personality, and I enjoy giving them the love, patience, and attention they deserve while you're away. Whether your little companion enjoys short walks to the park, cozy lap time, playtime, or simply a calm and caring presence, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and believe in providing reliable, loving care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I’m currently retired, so I have all of the time needed to be with your pup. My lifestyle is ideal for pet sitting since I will be with them nearly every minute you’re gone. I live in an apartment that has a dedicated potty space for dogs just a short elevator ride away. There’s a park across the street for short walks. I’ve had dogs for many years and our neighbors are all very dog friendly! They love to say hi as we go in and out to potty and walk.
About: I specialize is large breeds for walking and boarding, but all dogs are welcome. I have a highly energetic dog who loves to play. Able to pick up with large van that can accommodate several dogs. Large backyard with lots of toys. Excellent neighborhood for walking. Covered patio and indoor sleeping area. Close proximity to off leash dog parks. I am a full-time stay at home dad with one kid in school and the other starting soon. I have an at-home bakery business so I am around a lot. Large fully fenced yard. Walkable neighborhood. Golden aussiedoodle mix will keep them company. High energy and loves to play! I can provide a crate for any further crate training needs.
“Nathaly came through to care for our 8 month GS puppy with such patience and understanding as we had to go through a family loss. It was hard at times to know what time to pick up, but Nathaly gave us a big relief to know Tobie was cared for. Also blessed with toys to help him stay occupied when not playing. Thank you Nathaly and Stella!!”

“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! 🐾”

About: Update: We have adopted 7/7/26 a Shih-tzu 10lb. I raised both a Shih Tzu-Poodle mix and a Tibetan Terrier from puppies into their senior years. They were truly part of our family, and after losing them, I’m not emotionally ready to adopt again. (My daughter got a dog now-7/7/2026) Pet sitting feels like the perfect win-win your pets will be showered with love, attention, and care, while also bringing that special furry companionship back into our home. I’m experienced in daily pet care, including brushing and coat maintenance. Since both of our dogs had coats that matted easily, daily brushing and regular grooming were essential, and I personally maintained and trimmed their coats myself. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve pet sat for friends and family during vacations, often caring for their pets for weeks at a time. I also worked as a nanny for several years, where I regularly cared for a German Shepherd who became one of my favorites. We took daily walks to the park, and I helped maintain his coat, especially during shedding season. My love for animals began growing up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, and frequent litters of puppies and kittens. Being able to witness and help care for animals from such a young age gave me a deep appreciation for them and taught me patience, attentiveness, and compassion. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will always care for them as if they were part of my own family. My schedule is very flexible, I work from home in the evenings, the timing is perfect for winding down, they can relax in my office while I work or in our living room or room. In my home: Safety is my top priority. I have a large, fully fenced backyard, that connect directly to our lower living area allowing for secure and easy access for potty breaks. For variety i can take them around our neighborhood for walks and can utilize a large park at a nearby school for additional play time. Pet not good on walks, NO PROBLEM: Having owned a Tibetan Terrier who was incredibly loving with family and children, but reactive to other dogs on walks I deeply understand that every dog is different. If a pet is anxious or not good on walks, we can stay withing our private back yard. In the clients home: I follow the owners established routines and instructions to keep the pet safe and comfortable in their familiar environment, including tailored neighborhood walks.

“Enzo had a wonderful day with Han. Everything went smoothly with drop off and pick up and Han was professional throughout the process. She took amazing care of our pup and we will definitely book with her again in the future! Thank you so much, Han! :)”

“Dennis & Lynn were very pleasant to meet! They have a beautiful home with a big yard for my pup to play in. I received updates throughout my pups stay. Nevie had so much fun and played so hard she slept the majority of the evening when she got home. I booked again with Dennis and Lynn and my puppy Nevie will be so excited to return to visit!”

“Nich was great! Super friendly, took great care of my pup. Video and text updates. Not afraid to ask questions as needed. I would definitely trust Nich again to watch my little monster 🐶. 😊”


“Due to work commitments, I booked Polly an extra day of daycare this week. I thought for certain she would be tired (after the previous day), but boy was I wrong! Marisol took such good care of her extra energy, keeping her engaged and entertained until pickup. Polly had such a great time staying/playing with Milo and Marisol all day, it was so comforting to know that she was in good hands until I got home.”

About: I’ve been caring for cats, kittens, dogs, and puppies for over 12 years. It started when I was young, helping family and friends with their pets, and naturally grew into fostering both puppies and adult dogs. Today, I live with a ragdoll cat, two mini schnauzer doggies, and regularly foster dogs. My 2 senior cats that I grew up with currently live with my mom. Every dog or puppy I foster and have in my home learns routines and tricks based on their needs. I’ve helped with leash training, crate and potty training, managing toy reactivity, and teaching commands like sit, shake, and touch. My pets get plenty of playtime, structure, and love and yours will too. I’m careful with pet introductions and always prioritize comfort and safety. I understand every animal is different and will listen closely to your concerns to provide personalized care. I also love sending regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I work from home, and I am pretty flexible on ensuring the care needed for your pet. I have a lot of time to spoil your pets! I have a fully fenced yard, and monitor pets when they are outside. I introduce pets slowly with positive association and ensure each pet is comfortable. I also have a fence to separate pets indoors if needed. When caring for friends/family's pets, I always ensure pets do not bolt out the door both when coming inside and leaving. When walking a pup, I always ensure their harness/collar is on correctly and have high reward treats/toys to ensure focus stays on me if there are distractions. I never overwhelm an animal and understand they take time to warm up, especially when it is my first time meeting them.
“Gaby responds very quickly and always kept me updated about Chestnut. She was flexible with my schedule and took great care of him with a lot of patience and attention. I really appreciate her help and will definitely ask her to sit for Chestnut again in the future!”

“Ricardo is Onyx’s favorite friend. They have three other dogs that are so well behaved and t they play with Onyx. They even play ball with him and even gave onyx’s favorite ball. He even plays with the ball at my home every day. I will recommend them so many times.”


“Heidi had a great time playing and taking in the sun. She played in the back yard with the other puppies Judith and her hubby were friendly and courteous Heidi liked them”

“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! 🐾”

“Gino has been great with my one year-old husky, Pearl. She can be a handful, but he’s dedicated to working with her and it’s been wonderful. Pearl gets to see Gino every Wednesday and she loves going over there for daycare.”
“Michelle and Samuel were so wonderful with our dogs! I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. This was the first time leaving our dogs with someone at their home so I was nervous but Michelle and Samuel were receptive to our questions and instructions. They communicated frequently with us and sent us lots of pictures and videos. Our dogs were so happy and tired when they came home. I never thought I could find people I trusted with my dogs but now I have. We will be using them again!”

About: I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with real, hands-on experience — I’ve had my dog for 10 years and I care for my two cats daily. I’m attentive, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine. I take care of my two cats and my dog daily, from feeding and cleaning to giving them attention, playtime, and exercise. Because caring for animals is something I’m used to and genuinely enjoy, adding pet sitting into my schedule fits smoothly and feels like an extension of what I already do. At home, I take care of my pets by keeping them on a consistent routine—feeding them on time, cleaning their spaces, giving them playtime, exercise, and lots of attention. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved every day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely, maintain their pet’s usual routine, and keep the environment clean and calm. Whether at home or in a client’s home, I focus on giving each pet the same patience, care, and respect I give my own.

About: My name is Samantha! I am teacher and have breaks to help out other dog owners. I have owned dogs my whole life. I am very safe and responsible and am used to managing 30 kids all day, I can definitely handle a couple pups! I will be very respectful of your time and can be flexible to accommodate you and your pup. I love going in walks, and would love to take yours on safe ones as well. I can do drop in visits and overnights as well, thank you!! I am off for the summer so I have lots of time currently! I no longer have pets of my own anymore, so it's even easier for me to make space in my schedule. I have a yard but it is not fully fenced so pets would always be leashed. I no longer have any animals in my home.
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and cats and enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I’m comfortable with playful, energetic pets as well as those who are more shy, cautious, or need a little extra patience to warm up. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I make it a priority to follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to provide dependable and loving care. I’m also comfortable caring for cats, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and giving them attention while respecting their space. My goal is simple: make sure your pets are safe, happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently working a job and my current schedule for assisting with our furry friends reflects that schedule! Friday to Monday is my current schedule for helping our friends! I care for every pet according to their individual routine, personality, and needs. Before each visit or walk, I make sure I understand their feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications (if applicable), and any special instructions from their owner. During walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and engaged while allowing them to enjoy their time outside. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, making sure pets have fresh water, food, attention, and a clean and comfortable environment. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. My priority is always the pet’s safety and making sure they receive the same patience, love, and attention I would want for my own pets.

“This was the first time I left my dogs over night so I was extremely nervous but Michelle and Samuel were so great! They sent a ton of pictures and video. Most of all they cared about our dogs like their own. My dogs looked so happy and well cared for. Thank you both!!”

“Alyssa jumped in while Dane was out of town and made Lobster’s stay feel like a mini vacation. Lobster came along with his buddy Ren and they were straight into dog park adventures, backyard playtime, and running around with Lady (their adora-pup) like old friends. Between hanging out with Alyssa and her two daughters and all the fun outside, the dogs were clearly living their best lives. The steady stream of happy photos made it obvious they were having a blast and being so well cared for. We live 35 mins away from Dane and Alyssa, and the distance didn't bother us because we know our pup will be in good hands. We will book again and again!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Xiaotong! We left our two dogs with her for the first time and she took incredible care of them. She was very communicative and flexible with some schedule changes in our end and she sent plenty of photos. I can tell her and her family really love taking care of dogs and it was really obvious that our dogs were well loved when they were with her. 10/10 would book again!!”

“Jessi was amazing! My dog seemed to have a blast with her and her family. She was very responsive and sent me daily photos and updates of my pup. She was very understanding and flexible when I needed to add an extra day due to an emergency. I am certain that my dog was loved and extremely well taken care of with Jessi. Jessi truly went above and beyond! I will definitely be using her again and I highly recommend her to others.”

“Very nice couple. We booked them for a short stay and they took care good of ours boys, very flexible for drop off and pick up time, also always send pictures and updates! Thank you again”
“Can’t say enough nice things about Sara and Michael. Our 2 dogs (monsters) are always so well taken care of and love “Camp Sara”. We’ve trusted Sara for long and short term stays for almost a year now and appreciate that we such a well-designed and personable service provider/caretaker for our family. The attention to detail is a differentiator - eg upon dropoff back at our house they checked (and filled) the water bowl, put our leftover wet food in the fridge and opened the dog door knowing our dogs were going to be home alone for a few hours before we got back. HIGHLY recommend.”

“She was great & our pups had so much fun! She has a big yard for them to run in with obstacle courses. We also got pictures & videos everyday which relieved our anxiety of leaving them. Will definitely rebook for the next time we go on another trip.”

“If I can give Iry 10 stars I would! He is phenomenal! Was available for my last minute request to watch 13- week old puppy. Iry was so welcoming and adored puppy. He gave him plenty of exercise and cuddles. Was updated frequently with the best pics! I would 110% book with Iry again!”

“They were so kind and flexible with pick up/drop off times due to flight delays. They sent cute pictures and updates every day so I knew my pups were happy and safe. 10/10 will be booking future stays with them!”

“I'm grateful that Linda answered my last-minute request for two drop-in visits. She kept me informed with multiple texts, sent nice pictures, and said she'd love caring for my two little dogs again. Highly recommended.”

“Jen is so great. Communication before and during drop-off was seamless. We felt confident leaving our high-maintenance American Bully with her. We loved all the great photos, which assured us Hulk was having a great time!”

“Katie and family are the perfect sitters for our two golden retrievers. They have a wonderful, open property for dogs to run and play. And they have children who love to play with the dogs. We couldn’t be happier with the love, care and attention our pups received while we were gone. We will definitely be working with Katie going forward. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with your four-legged family members! Thank you!”

“Still an awesome sitting experience, I love that he's getting socialized with other dogs and animals. We did send him with 4 days worth of food for 2 days and when we received the containers back, they were completely empty. He also came back a little obese so we think he was overfed a little bit.”

“Cindy was wonderful and I thought the process went smoothly. She is really nice and was communitive about how Chino was doing throughout the weekend. Thanks for the reassurance and the flexibility to do a pre meet up. I would definitely use Cindy again for future boarding!”


“My dog can be a bit much at times, but Judith and her husband were very patient and caring with him. Nice to have someone reliable to watch him when I go out of town. Would definitely continue to use her again.”

“Marla is amazing! I received videos, photos and updates everyday. She responded quickly and took great care of my dog. My dog left very happy and had a good stay.”
