“Jenn was great… she is very friendly, calm, and she. understands dogs! We have three dogs and left them in Jenn’s care for 4 days… when we returned home the dogs were snuggled in their beds greeting us almost nonchalantly!! Which is a good thing for us…. Because our dogs are very attached to us. So they obviously were with someone who paid attention to them and helped them feel connected and loved! Thank you Jenn.”


“My two Aussiliers loved hanging out with Brandi during my business trip earlier this week. She has a good connection with dogs, and is easy-going and professional. Communication and coordination with her is easy. My dogs ate and played well, and came back from their walk with Brandi all happy. I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter!”

About: Hi! My name is Keira, and I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds my entire life. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Health and Behavior and currently work as an animal caretaker at my local nature center. I have hands-on experience with everything from daily pet care to administering medications when needed. Whether you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, or just someone who genuinely loves animals—I’m here to help. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I have my own pets as well including a dog, cats, bird, chickens, gerbil, etc. I have some experience in grooming and training if you would like any extra services let me know! I currently work part time at my local nature center 9am-2pm, 4 out of 7 days a week. Not long hours so I am able to walk dogs earlier and right after work. Or come back after work to pet sit if needed. At an owners house I would ask the pet parent what they think would be best but at my own house I have a big backyard to play with any dogs in my care (leashed or off leash). Any food provided will be fed by instruction and if medicine is needed to be given I can assist with that as well. Always fresh water nearby for any fur baby in my care.

About: Hi, I’m Arieh — a lifelong animal lover and your pet’s next favorite human! With a background as a strength & conditioning coach, I’m fully equipped to handle dogs of all sizes — from tiny terriers to giant breeds with serious pull-power. But my real strength? Loving care. I grew up surrounded by pets — dogs, ferrets, goats, birds, fish — and I bring years of hands-on experience to every animal I meet. I’m especially experienced with senior pets, puppies, and pets facing health challenges, including giving medications and providing extra patience and TLC. Plus, as an amateur photographer, I’ll keep you updated with adorable, high-quality photos — because you shouldn’t have to miss a single happy tail wag or goofy smile while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety are my top priorities. I can’t wait to meet your furry (or feathered!) family member! Pet care fits beautifully into my daily life! I run my own e-commerce business and work remotely, which means I set my own schedule and have the flexibility to adjust my days around pet care — including accommodating last-minute bookings. I’m currently single and love staying active, so taking pets on walks or spending time with them throughout the day feels like a natural, joyful part of my routine. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or some quality cuddle time, I’m happy to make sure your pet’s needs are met with love and attention. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. When I care for pets in your home, I do everything I can to maintain their normal routine — from feeding schedules to walk times, play, and rest — so they feel secure and at ease while you’re away. I’m respectful of your space, tidy, and always leave things as I found them (or better!). I pay close attention to each pet’s unique needs, whether that means giving medication, monitoring energy levels, or offering extra patience and affection for senior pets or puppies. You can expect regular updates and photos from me, so you never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing.

About: I've spent years caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every pup like family. From energetic walks to calm companionship, I adapt to your dogs needs. I'm responsible, patient, and genuinely love what I do. Your pets safety and happiness always comes first. As a college student who is home for the summer. I have a pretty flexible schedule, I'm available morning, afternoons, and evenings - perfect for regular walks, drop-ins, or overnight care throughout the week. I care for pets in their home by sticking to their routine, give them lots of love, keep things clean, and ensure they feel safe and relaxed.

“Patricia was wonderful from the very first contact! She was willing to help us with everything, and we had a peaceful trip thanks to the way she cared for our dog, Milo. we were able to relax knowing he was in good hands. Patricia is definitely a kind and lovely person, and our dog loved being around her. His anxiety was much better, and we felt much more at ease.”


“Marcella’s mom, Ivana, stayed at our home with our dog for several days and nights. She is a wonderful, warm person and I was comfortable with her immediately. She was great with CiCi (our loving-but-stubborn 70-lb hound pup) and gave her lots of exercise and attention. She kept in touch with us daily and sent photos and status reports 💜 Amazing capable dog/house-sitter, hope to work with her again!”


“Jeffrey takes great care of our pup, Tia. We used him for visits and walks prior to our most recent week vacation. We recently went away for a week and Jeffrey stayed at our home. He followed any/all directions we had left for our dog and kept us in the loop daily when we checked in. We trust him to stay in our home and take great care of our dog. Our dog is typically anxious and when we got home from our trip, we saw that Tia ate very well while we were gone which is sometimes a struggle when we leave her. We were very happy with her care. We look forward to continuing to use Jeffrey for future trips and daily walks.”


“Brian was amazing! Very communicative and kept up with her routine. We would absolutely work with Brian again.”


“Nicole was great. She stayed in my home for a week, with my 2 dogs who need a lot of love! A Great Dane and an old dog who requires meds. Both were well taken care of. Home was as I left it. She was very responsive and communicative. Will definitely use her again!”


“Kayla was wonderful with my babies while I was away. She communicted with me the whole time, sent photos and even left gifts for them! This was my first time leaving my animals with a stranger and it went better than expected.”


“Jade is a true professional! Phenomenal work with our hyper and anxious pup. Will absolutely book again.”


“Katlyn is a great dog sitter! She was available on pretty short notice and even agreed to stay at our house. She came to our house to meet Tucker beforehand which I really appreciated so I could show her around the house. She was in communication with me everyday providing updates and pictures on Tucker. She took him on lots of walks and adventures and even got him to cuddle with her! We will definitely use Katlyn again.”

ARIEH H.
“Arieh is an absolute rockstar of a pet sitter! He took care of my 80-lb golden retriever, Scout, as if she were his own—balancing her boundless energy with expert, coach-approved play circuits and twice-daily “sniffari” adventures that left her content and tuckered out. He was always punctual, super communicative, and sent the most adorable, high-quality photo updates (my phone’s full of them!). When Scout needed her pain meds for an old hip injury, Arieh administered them with calm confidence and kept me in the loop every step of the way. I came home to a spotless house, a happy pup, and zero worries. You can trust Arieh completely—book him now, your fur baby will thank you! 🐾✨”
