“Tamar is a special treat for your fur baby! Dudley is my 16-year nine month old senior, and she gave him the best care while I was on my 4 day get-away. She went above and beyond my expectations. I hesitate to say Tamar definitely will be my back-up for Dudley, because she may be overbooked!! 😃 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I’m Tracy, a former animal professional who’s also an experienced house sitter and pet caretaker. (I’ve also worked in zookeeping and in wildlife rehabilitation, so I’ve met a lot of animals in my time!) I’m reliable, friendly, responsible and will do things the way you want them done. Pets adore me and vice versa. I'm fine with huge dogs, tiny dogs, fearful dogs, high-energy dogs, cats who love attention, cats who hide under the bed. I'm flexible, patient and forgiving with them, but don't let them get away with stuff, like any good parent. I figure out their signals and learn to speak their language, so they feel "heard." I'm happy to give them exercise and keep them active. (They're the main reason I go out and get exercise myself, so I'm as grateful to them as vice versa.) I can also give meds as needed. I will be their best buddy (at their pace), make them feel loved and happy so that your absence will fly by for them. I am a non-smoker, no drugs, only a social drinker, I bring absolutely no drama. I’ll do things just the way you ask me to and, if I'm staying a while, will leave your place nice and welcoming when you get back. These days I have one very flexible M-F job that’s literally 5 minutes’ drive from my house. Accordingly, my specialty lately is longer-term overnight housesitting for cat owners, as cats’ needs tend to jibe pretty well with my schedule. I keep my service range small so that, if I’m caring for a dog(s), I can drop by to give them additional midday attention. I enjoy having time to get to know pets and their goofy little personalities, and I work hard to safeguard their feeling of normalcy and security. Homeowners also appreciate how much attention I pay to keeping their homes just the way they left them. I do my best to keep the pets' routine uninterrupted and provide whatever they're used to so their life stays on an even keel. (But if things ever seem slow I'll try to discover a new fun activity for us !) I also provide whatever updates you request--I know what it's like to be away from your babies and hoping they're doing all right without you!
About: I'm glad to welcome you! My name is Julia and I recently came to the USA for my dream. I want to take care of animals and spend a lot of time with them. I've had cats and dogs at home since childhood. That's why I understand perfectly how to take care of them. Now I have a Corgi dog Rey, and I'm happy that I have such a friend. I wholeheartedly understand how worried you are when you leave your dog on pet sitting. That's why I want to brighten up the expectation of your meeting and look after your pet. I try to satisfy all the needs of the animal as fully as possible. I can also give you the necessary medicines, if necessary. And also treatment of wounds and sutures. But please, no injections. I'll be glad to be your pet's friend 🐶🐱 I'm not working now and I can devote enough time to walk and play with your pet. For example, it is possible in the morning, during the evening. I can take care of your pet only on your territory. Devoting enough time to him to close the needs. If your pet is under a lot of stress in your absence, I can help him, be there and distract him from this problem
“Barbara is such a thoughtful care giver for our dog. She always lets us know if he seems like he needs something and she really notices how he's doing when she visits.”
“I couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter than Mindy! She went over and beyond taking care of my cat while I was away. I booked relatively last minute and had a few late adjustments to my travel plans but Mindy was very understanding and flexible. She provided plenty of updates during her visits and I could tell she genuinely cared about my cat’s well-being. I had a great experience with Mindy and would absolutely recommend her to others!”
About: I have pets of my own. I see pets as part of family so the care I provide is same as for my fuzzy love bugs, lots of luv and snuggles and maybe some extra treats if permitted ;) I know what’s it like to be away from your fuzzy friends so I will provide regular updates if you wish so. Available on weekdays/ weekends- mostly flexible schedule. Can stay overnight if needed, available on holidays. Can stop by for short time to check on your pets, play with them and feed them.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds—everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need gentle, patient attention. Friends, neighbors, and family regularly trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m especially experienced with puppies, senior pet care, and keeping animals calm and clean. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe and loved. I'm a college student home for the summer with a super flexible schedule! I’m available most weekdays and open for boarding or walks on weekends. I love spending time with animals and will make sure your pet gets lots of attention and play. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay in a space that feels familiar and safe. I’m calm, attentive, and always follow your instructions—whether that’s feeding, crating, walking, or giving meds. I’ll treat your fur baby like family :)
“What a gem of a personality!!!!! I feel so grateful to have met Paula - I was anxious about finding someone to come into my home but I feel so much more at peace after meeting Paula. Incredibly kind and genuine. I know that she is a true animal lover and a good person with a kind heart. Definitely will be continuing my connection with her for care for my pup.”
“Karen was great with my senior boy cat Batman. She sent pictures and updates everyday and I felt at peace knowing that he was doing fine. Karen will be my go-to person if I need a pet sitter for my next trip.”
“Catherine is amazing! I received daily updates (pics and videos) of my fur babies while I was gone. Catherine had a great presence with my cats especially the one that really doesn’t like anyone and would always hide….she came right out to meet Catherine. (During my trip I was sent a video of said cat purring like crazy while sitting on Catherine’s lap!! I was shocked)”

About: I'm the friend all my friends call to pet sit. I love fur babies and will treat yours like my own. Growing up with animals, specifically dogs and cats, makes caring for them second nature. I'm available weekdays and am open on the weekends as well to care for furry friends. I work on Sundays 8am - 1pm FYI so Sundays my best availability is after 1pm. I can make exceptions if need be, but this is my general schedule. I am available to watch your pet at your home or mine, depending on what is best for your pet. I will follow your instructions regarding their overall routine (feeding times, your ideal walking schedule for dogs, treats, etc.). If your pet has any specific needs, let me know. I'm here to maintain continuity for them and give them TLC in your absence.
About: We lost our blue nose pit bull 5 years ago. We are not ready to own a pet full time just yet but I would love to help other owners with their pets. I do have children my youngest being 4 so they do have to be children friendly but I also have a safe space your pet can be separate from the little ones when they want or need to be. I am vaccinated in case thats a concern and I grew up with all different types of animals my whole life as well as worked taking care of, full time, a rescue that consisted of 16 cats, 5 dogs and 5 horses. So I am very familiar with animals and their needs. This is the first time I have not had a pet in my life which is why I decided to join this app. Hope to see you and your pets soon!! I am a licensed real estate agent and mother to three beautiful children. I am available at various times to watch and care for your pets. I love to be outdoors and going for walks. I have a fenced backyard, we have a grass lawn open in the front yard with a porch and live close to many parks. Plenty of space indoor to walk around or to have their own little space. I also am comfortable working in others homes with respect to their belongings and personal preferences.
“Jessica is great with our two cats. Our cats are pandemic kittens and so are shy around strangers. Jessica has cat sit for us twice now and our cats are really warming up to her. She also takes care of all the essentials (feeding, litter, etc) very well.”
“Jacky took great care of our cat while we were away on vacation. Her detailed visit cards and photos helped us relax knowing our cat was in good hands while out of town. We definitely would recommend Jacky and plan to book with her again when we travel next.”

She has stayed in my home and cared for my animals while I am away and I have also used her for daily check-ins/feeding and walks.

Sophia L.
“As her mother, I’ve enjoyed watching Sophia grow into one of the most caring and responsible people I know. Since she was little, animals have always held a special place in her heart. Whether gently nursing a sick bird back to health, raising puppies during the pandemic, or spending hours playing with our family dogs, her love for animals has always been evident. What makes Sophia truly special is how animals seem to respond to her—a natural calmness and warmth she brings puts pets at ease. She’s incredibly dependable and attentive and takes her responsibilities seriously. I’ve seen firsthand how she goes above and beyond to ensure animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved. When Sophia cares for your pet, I can promise she’ll treat them as if they were her own. She understands that pets are family and puts her heart into every visit, walk, or overnight stay. I may be biased, but I truly believe you won’t find a more trustworthy, thoughtful, or compassionate person to look after your furry loved ones. Sincerely, Sonia L. (Mom of Sophia)”
