Loving house sitters in your neighborhood

1. Elizabeth C.
“Liz is amazing! My husband and I have never left our dogs with anyone but family so we were a bit nervous but she’s very communicative and treasuring. She also helped with our ducks which was of great help. So happy to have found someone in the neighborhood. Will definitely rebook in the future.”
2. Elijah H.
“Elijah was polite and friendly to us and our reactive rescued pocket bully. He was willing and able to handle her complex feeding instructions, walking peccadillos, and anxieties about people and dogs. Farah looked more relaxed with him in photos he sent than she did with her last pet sitter. Elijah also offered to do any light housekeeping chores we needed, wiped down counters before he left, and even did his own laundry and made up the bed again. Highly recommend!”
3. Whitney F.
“My Fur Baby most definitely enjoyed her time with Whitney! Whitney was very communicative and took great care of her. Will be booking again”
4. Anna F.
“Anna and her pup were great house sitters and dog sitters for our two great dogs! It was great knowing our house and dogs were well taken care of while we traveled..”
5. Kasey B.
“Kasey did a great job with my two weener dogs, Oscar and Lucy. When I got home, they were quite chill and happy which is noteworthy given they have separation anxiety. Kelsey is a great communicator and kept me posted on their wellbeing while I was out of town. I'd highly recommend her!”
6. Natalie V.
“Natalie did an exceptional job caring for our two dogs and two cats while we were away. I had no qualms about having her housesit. Our crew is a bit high maintenance, and she took care to manage their special needs and high energy levels. Pets were happy and house was spotless when we returned. Such peace of mind is invaluable.”
7. Samantha D.
About: i’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, horses for 10 years. all animals within friends family and others who have heard about me from others im working part time but i choose my work schedule so i can easily fit your dog into my priority routine to make sure your fur baby is taken care of! i have lots of land and two dogs who love to play and love other dogs they will tire them out by the time the play date is over
8. Lillian B.
“Lillian is marvelous. our kitty came to us during COVID isolation, so has not had the chance to meet many folks. Lillian's kind patience melted through his shyness and we were able to enjoy our time away without worry.”
9. Danielle S.
“The Venn diagram of Dani’s level of responsibility/reliability compared to her love of animals is a circle. You want your pet to be cared for with the same attention to detail and thoroughness as Leslie Knope? Dani is your person. You want your pet to be safe protected at all costs with the fierceness of a secret service agent? Dani is your person. You want your pet to be doted on with the love and adoration of a very present grandparent? Dani is your person. You cannot go wrong here folks. Unrelated to animals but a Testament to her skills and personality: Dani is always my first answer for “who would you want on your zombie apocalypse team”… she’s level headed, common sense, dependable, resilient, medical knowledge, ecological knowledge, a great leader etc etc. If she could confidently take on the zombie apocalypse, this position will literally be a walk in the park. (In terms of actual reference, i have a dog and cat that she has cared for for me for almost a decade) Take my word for it, your pet will be in GREAT hands!”
10. Ariel W.
“Ariel took good care of our puppy while we were out of town. She gave him a lot of attention and playtime and practiced the commands he’s learning. Would highly recommend her to care for your furry family members! ☺️”
11. Ethan B.
“Ethan took the time to get to know the dog. He came by a couple of days before so that we could meet and have a conversation about her mannerisms and what I’d like to happen during the sitting. My dog is difficult at introductions and he took it in stride until she calmed down. He’s respectful and on time. Nice job Ethan”
12. Holland B.
“Holland was WONDERFUL. My dog warmed up to her right away because she was so sweet - the pictures she sent showed he was having a lot of fun. I really appreciated that she devoted time to take him for long walks. She was conscientious to keep him on a complicated antibiotic schedule.”
13. Ella P.
“Ella took great care of our fur babies! She was wonderful to work with.”
14. Elizabeth B.
About: I’ve had pets since I was 2 years old. As soon as I was able, I started having a role in their caregiving. This included walking, feeding, bathing, giving medication, & loving them endlessly! In college, I also volunteered at a rescue shelter where I spent time walking & playing with the dogs, cleaning the kennels, as well as giving baths, treats, & loves. I currently work 20-25 hours a week all from home. I have multiple breaks throughout the day (every 50 minutes at the least) where I’m able to tend to any of the animal’s needs. I typically work Monday-Thursday 8am-11am & 2pm-6pm (with a ten minute break at the end of each hour). At my house, I have a fully fenced in backyard where your doggie can run & play, go to the bathroom, or just hangout. When the weather permits, I keep the back door open so they can come in/out as they please. Otherwise, I let them out regularly/as needed. If I’m in your home, I’m happy to follow any routine/schedule you typically use with your pet!

“THE BEST! Kelly was incredible and I can't recommend her more. We have an older dog who needs medication and attention, Kelly stayed at our house and took care of our Pup for over two weeks. She also took great care of the house and plants. If Kelly takes care of your beloved four-legged ones you and your dog are extremely lucky, she's the best! Thank you, Kelly!!!!!”
16. Mila D.
“Mika and John took care of Ruby like the princess she is! I can’t thank them enough!”
17. Laura B.
“Laura is super easy to communicate with and clearly is amazing with animals! She sent tons of pics and videos, and we felt great about leaving our pets with her! Thanks again and we can’t to book you again soon!”
18. Suzanne H.
“Suzanne did an incredible job house sitting for our two dogs! She sent us frequent updates of very happy dogs. She also went above and beyond to leave the house cleaner than when she arrived.”
19. Dana L.
“Dana would be a great pet caregiver. Although she doesn’t currently own a pet at this time, she has had dogs and cats, and is a very responsible and caring pet owner. She will give your pet lots of love while you are away, and she is excellent at following your direction. I have entrusted my dog’s and cat’s care to Dana, and she’s wonderful!”
20. Jenna D.
“Jenna was fantastic with our dogs while we were away for a long weekend and left the house in better shape than she found it. Great communication and always pleasant to interact with. We’re sure to be repeat clients!”
