“Michelle is the best, she took great care of my baby Duquesa and always kept me informed and sending me very nice photos. She saved the day for me and my husband because we have a magic show and we needed someone to take care my dog all day and Michelle did fantastic. I definitely recommend it 100% ❤❤❤❤❤”
“Liz is amazing! She provided excellent care for our Malshi pup Lola. Like most Makshi pups, Lola is a real people pup and very sensitive. We were initially worried about leaving her for a week, but”

“We used Veronica to house sit and to watch our cat and dog. Veronica communicate with us daily about our animals and sent us pictures. She was super friendly and listened to all of our needs in taking care of our animals. I would recommend Veronica and definitely will be using her again to watch our animals.”

“Nikki is such a sweetheart! She made rocky and I feel extremely comfortable with leaving her overnight after having surgery. Nikki was so reliable texting me when his medicine was taken as well as when his meals were given with cute photos! I’d trust her with my life after helping save my pups life! 1000% recommend & will be rebooking for future going away trips!”
“I needed someone to play with my puppy so I could focus on working for one afternoon. Alina’s so helpful and is really patient with puppy. He loves her already after 4 hours of hanging out with Alina.”


“Ryan is a caring and capable sitter. My girl, halo is quite hyper. Only he can hadle her. He fed halo twice a day and a walk. Halo is very health and strong under his help. I'll definitely rebook Ryan.”

“Alessandra is the GOAT! I was naturally a bit anxious about a stranger staying in my house, but she completely blew those worries away. Her energy is 10/10!! She is sweet, genuine, and incredibly loving toward my dog Tito! We started this booking as strangers and ended it as great friends. If you can snag a spot on her calendar, DO IT. She is a total gem and an absolute professional!”

“Janey is a fantastic dog sitter. She is incredibly thoughtful and caring. She house sat for my two dogs and from all the photos and videos it seems they really trusted her, felt safe with her, and were able to be their spunky selves with her. It’s true that she will go above and beyond your expectations. If you’re looking for a sitter that will ease the stresses of leaving your animals with great communication, Janey is who you want.”

“Seriously, the best dog sitter ever. My two GSD’s are not typical dogs. They like to bond with a person and enjoy lots of walks. VIctoria treated them like royalty, sent me a ton of pictures and walked the dogs several times a day. My house was clean when I got home and she had even washed and tied the sheets. I can’t say enough good things about her”


“Shannique did such a great job taking care of my 1.5 years old Pomeranian. This was my first time using Rover and my dog had very limited experience staying with others, so I was a little nervous. However, Shannique was so professional, she brought toys to our appointment and was so patient waiting for the dog to warm up. She was also great at communication! Throughout our appointment, she kept me updated about every 20-30 minutes and sent pictures. My Hawaii trip wouldn’t be complete without her taking care of my dog for two nights - it really freed up my time to allow me to enjoy dinner and other activities that were not dog friendly. Thank you Shannique!!! You are truly amazing!!”

“Our cat is usually a little standoffish with strangers but Ria was great with her. She sent frequent updates and pictures to us while we were away which was a relief since this was our first time using this service. We would definitely book her again!”

“We sincerely appreciates Sasha’s taking care of our dogs and our home. Especially grateful she was able to check in on our dogs when our flight was unexpectedly delayed more that 5 hrs.”


“This was my first time booking with Jenna. She came over and met my dog prior to my trip. I was surprised how quickly he warmed up to her. I have a leash reactive dog and it was comforting to know she had previous experience with reactive dogs. I also have a senior cat that has been having some health issues, so was anxious leaving him. She provided lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. It really put me at ease and allowed me to enjoy my trip knowing they were in great care. I would absolutely book with Jenna again. Thanks for the great care, I really appreciate it!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in the house and I always help to care for them. I have a 5 year old Beagle back on the mainland with family that I miss a lot and will treat your dogs like I do him! I really enjoy walking so I will enjoy taking your dog for long walks. I will do everything I can to care for the animals and take as much time as needed. I enjoy spending time with animals in my free time so I am happy to walk your animal at any time of day. I also am in graduate school which allows flexibility in timing. __ —- —- —- —- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I work full time but I’m happy to accommodate most requests into my schedule. I am typically out of town holidays but around most times of the year. I know the area very well and will make sure to take your dog in safe spaces. My dog is reactive so I am very familiar with mitigating that and making sure that the dog can stay under threshold and enjoy their walk.
“Kristie was a very good and reliable sitter. She sent us updates and responded quickly to messages. She also left our place in good shape for our return. Our two little pups seemed to really like her. We definitely recommend her to others!”
“Motomi provided exceptional care for my 12-year-old fur baby, Sammie, during my recent trip. Given Sammie’s age and need for daily medication, I appreciated Motomi’s attentiveness and the tender love she showed. She regularly sent photo and video updates upon request and was proactive in addressing any questions or concerns. Initially hesitant to welcome a stranger into my home, I was relieved when Motomi followed my instructions and even tidied up before leaving. I will definitely reach out to her again for future pet-sitting needs.”

“Paige was an amazing house sitter and dog caretaker. She was able to handle our two very different dogs (outgoing lab and grumpy schnauzer) with ease and had a manner that they really responded to. Paige was also very understanding with my older dogs unique feeding routine. She was organized, nice, fun, and sent daily photos and videos. We hope to engage her again for future travels.”

“Hayley has been amazing! She was able to accommodate our situation on short notice and was incredibly effective in communicating throughout. We received constant updates with photos and notes about Coco, which gave us total peace of mind. Her care, attention to detail, and reliability are top notch. We trust her completely and feel so lucky to have her looking after Coco. Highly recommended!”


About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s what I love. I’ve spent years working hands-on with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I truly believe every animal deserves patience, respect, and individualized care. From energetic puppies and shy rescues to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I’m experienced in adapting my care to each pet’s unique needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of reliable care. I’m primarily available during the morning and early afternoon, which allows me to provide attentive, unrushed visits that fit well with pets’ daily routines. I care for pets in their own home, where they’re most comfortable and relaxed. I follow your pet’s established routine closely—feeding, playtime, litter or potty care, medications, and quiet companionship—so their day feels as normal as possible while you’re away. I treat your home with respect, keep spaces clean and tidy, and take time to make sure your pet feels safe, calm, and well cared for. Thoughtful attention and reliable updates are always part of my in‑home care.

We would highly recommend Luke for any pet care needs! He watched our fur baby for over two weeks and we had full confidence that he was well taken care of during our whole trip. Luke was easy to communicate with, clearly loved our dog and our dog loved him, and he took wonderful care of our home as well. We will definitely be repeat clients!

Andrés was awesome! Pawson loved him from the minute he met him. Andrés provided Pawson with plenty of exercise, and he was very attentive to all of Pawson's needs. He also sent regular updates to make sure that I knew how Pawson was doing. We'll definitely be seeing Andrés again!

Seriously, the best dog sitter ever. My two GSD’s are not typical dogs. They like to bond with a person and enjoy lots of walks. VIctoria treated them like royalty, sent me a ton of pictures and walked the dogs several times a day. My house was clean when I got home and she had even washed and tied the sheets. I can’t say enough good things about her

We had great communication with Agatha and she took good care of our elderly pup. We were nervous about leaving our girl for a week to travel abroad, but once we started getting regular updates with pictures from Agatha, we felt at ease. She also took good care of our home.

Mia was kind and attentive and my puppy Koa had a great time with her. She made sure to clarify any questions she had and also was super open to learning how to feed him his special diet. She spent a lot of time with Koa taking him to the dog park and on walks which he loves!

We seriously couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our three doggos while we were away 🐾🤍 From the very beginning, Jordan was so communicative, thoughtful, and reassuring. During our initial meet and greet, our dogs absolutely loved her right away, which honestly gave us such peace of mind leaving them in her care. She kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout our trip, and you could truly tell she cared for them like they were her own. It’s such a good feeling finding someone you can fully trust with your pets, especially when they’re such a huge part of your family. We came home to happy, loved, well-cared-for pups and are so incredibly grateful for Jordan. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and genuinely amazing with animals 🐶✨

Alessandra is the GOAT! I was naturally a bit anxious about a stranger staying in my house, but she completely blew those worries away. Her energy is 10/10!! She is sweet, genuine, and incredibly loving toward my dog Tito! We started this booking as strangers and ended it as great friends. If you can snag a spot on her calendar, DO IT. She is a total gem and an absolute professional!

Veronica was an absolute dream to work with! Our older pups started experiencing some random symptoms about a week before our trip to Japan and we contemplated cancelling the whole trip but Veronica gave us so much comfort and reassurance which also gave us peace of mind. We were in communication every day and she also sent pics/videos which was so calming for us. Normally we don't worry as much but our dogs are 16 and 13 years old but Veronica was very understanding and we cannot wait to work with her again. Thank you!

We definitely hope Elizabeth will be available to hang out with Charlie in the future. Charlie liked her, she was affectionate and attentive with our baby, and she communicated well with us. She was also quite flexible when she could be. Elizabeth, we really appreciate your extra efforts before and during your stays with Charlie!

I needed a last minute booking for a 22 day trip and luckily I found Francine. I have a large garden and two skittish cats. She made fast friends with the cats and when I returned home all my plants were thriving and healthy. I would highly recommend Francine for her flexibility in accepting a last minute offer, attention to detail, and gentle hand with my cats.
Melissa was incredible! She was available on short notice, and came to meet us and our pets ahead of time anyway since we were in a crunch. She stayed overnight with our 6 yr old border collie and 5 yr old cat and took great care of them. She made sure our dog got regular walks and played with him. She sent photos and gave updates during our trip. She followed the instructions left and we feel our pets were in great hands while we were gone. We will absolutely be having her back to care for our babies!

Jamie did a fantastic job with Meatloaf and Jack! She sent updates every day with photos and took them on some nice long walks around the neighborhood (including a coffee date!). She was very prepared to care for them and asked all the important questions to ensure the pups were happy and comfortable. She left the apartment in pristine condition when I got home. I would gladly work with Jamie again.

I put my trust in Kathy to care for my senior fur baby Willie, while on a 5 night off-island trip. Kathy provided diligent communication and great photos, which put my mind at ease, allowing me to fully enjoy my trip! She reached out with concerns, to inform and question if my dog's behavior was something experienced before or if out of character. All went well, I am grateful to Kathy, and happy to recommend her loving care to others seeking a reliable, trustworthy, kind hearted pet sitter! 💗
