“Jen was the best house sitter I've ever had. She sent tons of updates and lots of photos/videos of my pets. She also left my house very clean. I would highly suggest her as a pet sitter.”


“Lovely to work with! She took great care of our cat while we were on vacation for a week. She played with her a lot and was really attentive to the instructions we had left around feeding and other things. She was very communicative and sent us lots of pictures. She also left our house super clean and was overall very considerate.”


“Olivia did great with Echo! Communication was clear and timely. Echo was very happy with Olivia right off the bat. We would highly recommend Olivia!”


“Anna was amazing. I got updates on the morning and evening with pictures of the furkids. She was amazing with my girls. Took them on long walks and gave them tons of attention. The girls are looking forward to their next stay with Anna”


“Anesa is great. She and Dexter got along famously. We appreciate that she took him on a hike and on playdates with other dogs over the weekend. She also gave us periodic photo updates which were greatly appreciated. We'll definitely rebook the next time we need a sitter!”


About: I have been the go-to pet care taker around the neighborhood forever! I am more than willing to do house sitting, as I feel like the animals are more comfortable that way and I have cats at the house. I work short 4 hour shifts 2 days during the week and then 6 hour shifts on the weekends, so I have plenty of time during the week!! I do not have a fenced in yard but I live in a quiet neighborhood with more than enough space to take a walk. I also have a pretty decently sized backyard!

“Olivia was wonderful with our dog, Winnie! Highly recommend her to take care of your furry friend”


“Rosie was wonderful! Had to make an unscheduled trip from Maine back to PA, and found her on very short notice through Rover. She got our girl Ellie out for multiple walks despite miserable weather during her stay, and Ellie seemed to be totally smitten with her! We had some issues with flights on our return and she was very flexible, volunteering to spend an extra night if necessary. We would request her again in a heartbeat if the need arises, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She was great!”


“Shelby was an incredible sitter to have in our home with our pets. We feel confident that she gave our dog a lot of time and attention. Both outside being active and snuggled up inside! Our cat has been known to be picky and sometimes hides upstairs when we have guests. So we were extra happy when Shelby sent pictures of her hanging out & being social while we were away. Meeting Shelby ahead of our trip is what sealed the deal. I could just feel that she was the right match and would happily spend time with our babies. She knew the right questions to ask so she would be successful following their routine, and giving the level of care we were looking for. We’re thrilled to have found her and would recommend to all! Shelby was sure to reach out daily to report that all was well, asked questions, and shared whatever enjoyable moment had most recently happened. Seeing the pictures regularly made us feel at ease with her there. Shelby even handled our kitchen sink backing up, and made sure it wasn’t a bigger and more immediate issue. It was a joy to return home and see that it was just as clean if not cleaner than we left it :)”


“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.”


“Danielle was absolutely amazing! We will continue to ask her to look after our pups for our future trips. She provided us with updates and didn’t mind at all that we had a lot of specific requests regarding the pups food etc. she took perfect care of them and kept them company so we didn’t have to worry at all about them while we were gone.”


“Eileen is literally a dream dog sitter! I’ve never felt so comfortable leaving my two dogs knowing they were in excellent hands. I genuinely think they miss her now that we are home. She is so kind, caring, and naturally an animal whisperer. Our dogs are normally a bit shy but they fell in love with her right away and were showering her with kisses and asking for belly rubs. While we were away she sent regular updates with photos and videos. She left our house spotless and we know the dogs can’t wait for us to leave town again so they can have her back. :)”


About: READ BEFORE BOOKING: Boarding + Daycare in our home I live with four other people: one human (my partner Jason), one canine (a 2-year-old Border Collie Poodle girl), and two felines (a 1-year-old girl and a 13-year-old queen). All of them are very friendly and well socialized. However, this means that if I board your dog, or take them in for daycare, they have to be familiar and respectful with cats, and well-socialized with dogs. Ideally they love playing and chasing (but not the cats). I work from home on my budding dog business, and I am enrolled in The Academy For Dog Trainers, studying canine behavior and training. It is easy for me to have another dog around, but I will require a visit to my house first to ensure the dogs get along, and your dog won't chase my cats. Ideally, we go for a walk together first, to give the dogs the opportunity to meet on neutral turf. I will only take one guest dog at a time. They'll get to play to their heart's content with my dog in a fully fenced large yard. Sitting in your home: If I stay at your home to petsit, I will bring my dog along. This is not negotiable. She's fully housebroken and well-behaved. I will require a visit of your home to ensure our dogs get along in your dog's territory. Ideally, we go for a walk together first, to meet on neutral turf. I will need reliable high-speed internet at your home. Bonus: I’m really good at taking care of plants, too. General dog weight preference: My preference is dogs who are 50lbs and under, unless they are really mellow or well-behaved. I want to be able to control them and keep everyone safe. My partner Jason and I just love all animals. I will be your sitter / primary caretaker, but in our home, Jason will give a lot of additional affection and attention, when he's around. I’ve been a dog parent for over 20 years, and have lots of experience with all ages and special needs. I am very diligent about catering to your dog’s specific needs and keeping you updated as frequently as you like, including lots of pictures. I usually drive my own dog to various trails in the area every morning and we go 3+ miles, I'd be happy to take yours on hikes, too, if they like car rides and can handle the exercise. Your dog will be with me and my dog all day long. Throughout the day, I take frequent breaks and let them out, be it for more walks, or a game of fetch or chase in our large yard. As soon as I'm certified as a dog trainer, I'll be happy to take on training as well. I will watch your dog in my home or yours. I’ll adhere to their normal schedule and needs. They'll have a friendly play buddy in my own dog.

“Ariel was a great dog/house sitter while we were away for a weekend. She made sure all the dogs needs were met and then some, I would recommend her to anyone!”


“Kasey house/pet sat my 2 cats and chickens on a holiday weekend and did a great job communicating with me. I appreciated the photo updates and she left the house just as I left it! Definitely will reach out again.”


About: My Girlfriend Taylor and I have been taking care of pets since we can remember! I I would always house sit and hangout with the neighbors pets growing up. She has experience with all ages, all sizes, many breeds of dogs. I work from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to go out on potty breaks and walks throughout the day! I’m a little bit of a home body, so I’ll most likely just be hanging out with them in the evening My apartment complex has an indoor dog park and two fenced-in outdoor parks. We have plenty of routes to walk. My very friendly dog Scout will always be around to keep your pup company! (Scout is compensated in treats and belly rubs)

About: I grew up on a farm with animals and I’ve always had animals to care for including raising and training and providing for them. I currently have a beautiful 8 year old Black Lab. I’m currently retired and find myself searching for rewarding activities I have plenty of time to play and enjoy your fur babies when you can’t. I am available to walk, potty,play, talk, feed,brush, crate and spend the night if needed. We will follow their routine as close as possible during my stay.

“Isabella was great! She was responsive, punctual, and Cabot had a great time with her!”


“Bella and Cameron were wonderful! My pups had a great time with them. They sent us pictures the whole weekend and left the house spotless. Will be booking them again!”
