About: Growing up with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs, I have a wide array of pet care experience for animal friends large and small. Frequent dogwalker and pet-sitter with extensive knowledge of care practices. I am a remote worker and student in my day-to-day life, so I can frequently care for pets in my off-time in between classes and while working at home. I will be open in my communication about any issues or special needs that pets will need and trust that clients will communicate any special needs to me.
“Cheryl took wonderful care of my pups - one of whom is 14 and has a few special care needs. She also took great care of the house and had it in wonderful condition when I returned. She stayed in contact with pictures and was easily reachable throughout my trip. Highly recommended!”
“Karen was amazing! She made sure our senior pup was taken care of with lots of little walks and timely medication. She stayed at our house, kept it super tidy, and made sure our old lady felt loved while we were away. We will definitely use Karen again!!!”
“Justin took great care of all 4 pets with all their little quirks and needs. He was communicative and shared a lot of pics. I definitely recommend him and hope he’ll come back soon :)”
About: I haven’t killed my dog in 13years yet, won’t let your dog die on my watch. Call me the dog watcher😎 But on a serious note, I have been a dog-sitter for over 13 years. Always taking care of my friends & family furry friends. I am currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to have time take care of your “fur-baby.” 😊 Communication between me & the pets owner is priority for me. I truly try to cherish every moment I get with a pet. Even small things like walking for an extra 5 minutes or even reminding them how good of a boy or girl they are is important for me.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12 years old and I love getting to know all of animals different personalities, bringing them out to play, going on walks with them, and caring for their special needs. I’m flexible and can work at anytime when needed, I have a car so I can drive to help get medicines, spend the night, and come at anytime of the day! I take them out for walks, follow the schedule given and love animals like they are one of my own pets, helping and loving them!
“She was great!! My cat had so much fun with her. I’m new to this app and having someone house sit but i had no worry with her. She went above and beyond and i will definitely use her again”
“Dominique completed his second house sit for my two pups (6 nights) and we continue to endorse him as a qualified / reliable sitter! Communication again proved to be consistent. Water bowls were full and my house was just how I left it. My large dogs are prone to acting out if they do not get enough attention (especially over long periods). It was great coming home and not seeing any indication of unsatisfied pups. Fully recommend!”
“Lisa was amazing and Lionel was well taken care of. Plenty of communication and the house was left in great condition. Thank you Lisa!”
About: Hi, I’m Hannah—your go-to sitter for small pups with big personalities! I specialize in caring for dogs under 25 lbs who love cozy cuddles, short walks, and gentle attention. Whether your dog is shy, spunky, or somewhere in between, I’ll provide a calm, loving environment tailored to their needs. Your little one is safe, happy, and treated like family! I work full time Monday through Friday which is perfect for morning and evening visits or overnights. My weekend schedule is wide open for fur baby visits. I do not care for pets in my home - I have 3 cats so this would be a big no-no! They wouldn’t be very happy.

I'd even be willing to take dogs to the dog park if there is one close available if you'd like.
“Rachelle was amazing! I originally booked her for two nights, but a snow storm delayed my return an additional 3 nights. She was accommodating by being understanding, kind & flexible, I’m not sure what I would have done had she not been willing to sit extra nights! She exercised my dog regularly, sent photos, was an excellent communicator & even let my winston sleep with her. I don’t leave my pup with just anyone and I will be asking for Rachelle’s help again. I highly recommend anyone who really loves their dog to use Rachelle!”

Jared V.
“I can’t recommend Jared enough! They took care of my cat for a whole month, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. From daily updates and adorable photos to thoughtful little details that showed how much they truly cared, Jared went above and beyond. My cat can be a little shy with new people, but they bonded so well — it was clear my cat felt safe and happy. Coming home to a relaxed and well-cared-for pet made all the difference. If you’re looking for a kind, reliable, and genuinely wonderful pet sitter, look no further. A true gem!”

Laura C.
“Out of a lot of people I know, I trusted Laura with my dog’s life. She’s been there since the day I got gifted my dog and was a great help. As we got older and our lives got more busy, Laura was there to help babysit and take care of Wendy whenever I needed someone. Wendy grew fond of her and every time she came walked in, Wendy went straight to her waiting for her pets and treats. Laura was always on time, willing to walk and even run with Wendy and even asked questions to make sure Wendy got the care she needed.”

She has her own animals that she might be slightly obsessed with, which I think helps when caring for others - she’s going to treat them as she would like hers to be treated.”
