“Alexandria was amazing!! I was very anxious about leaving Alex and Lucy home alone someone. Alex and Lucy were well taken care of. Alexandria always provided updates. My anxiety was at ease and I didn’t have to worry about both doggies. Thank you so much for all your care and attention!!”

“Megan was great with Louie! She was punctual, followed his schedule, sent a photo update, and played with him regularly. I came home to a very happy puppy. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“It was the first time for my dog to be sitted with someone he didn”t know. That brought me anxiety but Brionna in the meet and greet gave me enough confidence to hire her. Although Pelusa played hard to get the first day, they bonded very well as days passed by. I will definitely trust Brionna again to sit for Pelusa.”


“Charlie is great! Communicative, reliable, and independent. My cat, Bentley, was so chill when I got back—I could tell he'd gotten everything he needed and plenty of attention. I already rebooked! Highly recommend.”

“Michele was quick to respond to any of our texts while she was taking care of our two cats, and sent us pictures daily. She was so kind as to come two days early to stay with one of our cats who was having some health issues. She paid extra attention to one of our cats who has health/behavioral issues and notified us of any issues the cats were having. We felt comfortable leaving them in her care and would definitely hire her again!”

“Asel was extremely sweet, professional, punctual and responsive! It was my first time leaving my babies with anyone who isn’t family and I was so anxious! Asel did an amazing job not just keeping me updated, but keeping my babies happy and following the care guide provided. I 100% recommend Asel to anyone who wants to keep their babies safe and happy while away.”

About: I have six years of experience caring for family and friends’ dogs, ranging from puppies to senior dogs, with a maximum of two dogs at a time. Taking care of pets fits really well into my routine. During the weekdays I am available after 8 am and Saturdays after 9 am. Please note that I am unavailable most Sundays, but I accommodate if given notice in advance. I provide care exclusively at the client's home, ensuring their pets stay in a comfortable and familiar environment. To ensure a high level of care, I follow feeding times, medication schedules, and any special care requirements closely. I make sure pets get plenty of time to exercise, play, and stay mentally stimulated. I also like to keep the owner regularly updated throughout the day by sending photos and messages.
About: I’ve grown up with/cared for all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more. I have professionally cared for both senior dogs and puppies, including basic training. These were dogs of all breeds, sizes and backgrounds. I currently have two rescue cats and would love to care for some doggies in my free time, as I can’t have them in my apartment! I am currently working part time in the city, and have a very free/flexible schedule. I couldn’t think of a better way to spend my free time looking after your fur babies! If caring for your pet in your personal home, I will keep their routine as close to normal as possible to ensure they feel comfortable. I know animals can get anxiety with sudden change, so I would ensure they feel safe. I am great at giving constant updates/photos, so you can see how your fur baby is doing! I love cuddles if they are comfortable with this, and play time to keep them stimulated.
“Adeib was a great dog sitter! He stayed in my apartment and cared for my dog very well, following all instructions and communicating all throughout the stay. He welcomed my overly detailed instructions and sent pictures to updated me. I felt so confident that my dog was well cared for and would absolutely book him again!”

“Briana is so amazing that I had zero worries about her staying at my apartment and watching my dog while I was out of town for a week. During her meet and greet, she was so professional and clearly demonstrated that she knew exactly how deal with my dogs temperament. While I was away, she communicated regularly and was willing to go up and beyond her responsibility of watching my dog. My dog also was able to establish a bond and trust with her pretty quickly as well, which isn’t easy for most people to achieve because my dog is a rescue and has anxiety around new people. Briana good at what she does and I will be utilizing her again.”

“Elizabeth took great care of my dog and two cats on short notice while I was out of town. She was super friendly and easy to reach, I would highly recommend her!”

“Kevin is a fantastic sitter! Great communication and he took great care of our four dogs and our home while we were away overnight. We look forward to working with him again.”
“Drew is a fantastic dog sitter and walker. He watched our dog Pablo for 3 days and nights (he stayed in our home). Drew kept us fully updated on Pablo during his stay with messages and photos, and followed all of the notes we left regarding our dog’s routine. This was comforting because Pablo takes medication and has anxiety / some reactivity. Drew also left our home very clean and accommodated staying past his scheduled time. We 100% recommended Drew for all of your pet sitting / walking needs, he’s great!”

“Jason is a top sitter! He was extremely thorough in getting to know our golden retrievers, and their personalities ahead of watching him. During the stay, he was prompt and extremely communicative. We received consistent updates on their walks, meals, and activities each day. He also sends lots of pictures! Jason cared for our dogs as if they were his own, and left our place in perfect condition. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to have him watch the dogs and will be rebooking!”

“I booked a date with Esther and Jay so we could meet each other. I also thought it would give my cat an opportunity to become familiar with them. They arrived exactly on day and time we planned. Esther and Jay are warm and friendly and I found them a joy to have in my home. They asked good questions and I knew they would be wonderful caretakers for my cat. Now if I have to travel, I know my cat and my home will be well looked after.”

“Steven was fantastic! He took wonderful care of our dogs and was the perfect guest in our apartment. (He stayed in our apartment and took care of our dogs for five days.) He sent regular updates and photos, and if I ever had a question, he always answered right away. I would hire him again in a heartbeat...and in fact, I just did!”

“Cecilia was the best! She showed lots of patience with my dog, Jojo, and she never hesitated to ask questions. I also really appreciate how often Cecilia would communicate via text. Good updates and even better pictures!”

“Shariana came to the rescue last minute when our previous sitter had an emergency and couldn't watch over our pup and she was incredibly communicative in coordinating the booking under such a time crunch. As for the care, she was incredibly loving to our dog during the sitting experience and sent us consistent text/photo updates while we were away, which was all much appreciated! We're definitely planning on using her again and would recommend her to any/everyone!”

Michele was very sweet and took excellent care of my energetic husky. I could take a few hours off without worrying, as my baby was getting the best care ♥️ she took my dog on a long walk, fed her and gave a lot of love, which my dog needs. I’m 100% booking Michele again!

Altagracia has been a wonderful sitter for my dog, Louis. Every time she stays in my home, she is attentive, reliable, and truly committed to his well‑being. She takes the time to understand his routines and his moods, and she always makes sure he feels comfortable and secure. When Louis wasn’t interested in his usual food, Altagracia didn’t hesitate — she cooked something appealing for him so he would eat. That level of care says everything about her dedication. She consistently goes the extra mile and treats Louis with real thoughtfulness. I trust her completely in my home and with Louis. She communicates clearly, and gives Louis the calm, steady presence he needs. I highly recommend Altagracia to anyone looking for a dependable, caring sitter who will treat their dog with genuine attention and respect.

Rachel provided our puppy with excellent care! She asked great questions during our initial m&g and followed all of the instructions I gave her. I loved how attentive Rachel was during her time with our puppy - playing with her, walking her, feeding her treats etc. I would absolutely hire Rachel again!

Kevin was so great with our dog Wrigley! He sent lots of updates and photos while we were gone which was much appreciated. Wrigley can be an anxious pup and Kevin handled him so well. He left our apartment spotless! Will definitely have Kevin dog sit for us again :)

Iliana did a fantastic job. She followed all the instructions and most importantly fed our kitties on time. She left the apartment clean and spotless, just as we had left it before leaving on vacation. She did not hesitate to reach out with questions and sent us updates with pictures frequently. We look forward to having her watch them again :-) !!

Brionna was great! Know what enjoyed her company. She offered a meet and greet. She was punctual and I got pictures everyday of my dog and how he was doing. My house is exactly the way I left it. I definitely recommend her if you're looking for a dog walker or sitter.

Kyntel was great! He kept our apartment tidy, updated us consistently, and made sure Beau stuck to good habits. Kyntel was super patient with Beau when Beau took a bit to get used to someone new taking care of him, and Beau began cuddling with him in no time. We'd gladly work with Kyntel again!

I can't recommend Julia enough! I always struggle leaving my cat Oliver and he can get sad and anxious when I'm away, but I came home this weekend to find him as peaceful and happy as could be, which doesn't always happen. It's such a relief to have someone who's genuinely loving and attentive with him, and who gets to see just how special he is. Thank you so much again Julia! ❤️
