1. Jordin S.
“Jordin is who you want watching your pets. I am a nervous nelly about leaving my pets and having Jordin be our sitter put my mind at ease. First of all, she followed the instructions to a tee, secondly, she went above and beyond to keep our house in exactly the state we left it. I am so impressed with Jordin and the way she cared for our pets. In the photos she sent I could tell that my dogs and cats really love her! I will be using Jordin again every time we go out of town.”
2. Haley Z.
“Haley is so nice. My Dogs took to her almost immediately even my one who doesn’t like most people. She sent me pictures while I was away and just gave me overall peace of mind my dogs were safe.”
3. Christina M.
About: I have feeding, walking, playing and poop cleaning experience. I have been around small and large, young and old dogs most of my life. I know all are different in their needs but they all need love and I can provide that. I have no other job so I have all the time needed for your pet. I'm available days, nights, weekends and emergency care available. I haven't had a pet not like me yet. I can follow any routine already set in place. I can give extra time and love to any animal. I will not take the care of your member of the family lightly.
4. Marielle F.
“My boy Kingston loves Marielle! She takes him out for long walks/adventures and sends updates/pictures. She is wonderful and I have complete peace of mind when he is in her care. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a sitter for your fur baby!”
5. 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! ☺️”
6. kelly s.
“Kelly is who you want to sit your pets and your house. She's so nice, so patient with all my communication, so responsive and responsible... It's obvious she loves animals, she immediately connected with my cat and my puppy, and they with her. And let me tell you, my puppy is not an easy dog to take care of right now. She's 16 weeks old and in full crazy teething, biting, nipping mode. It's definitely a challenge to be with this land shark. But Kelly handled her with grace. She also left our house spotless. I will definitely ask her to watch my babies again!”
7. Bella G.
“Bella is a friendly and enthusiastic dog sitter that we plan to use again! She was on time and we returned home to happy pups that had been fed and walked!”
8. Bailey M.
“This was our first multi-day out of town trip in quite a while, so we were a little worried about Thunder, our needy cat. We needn’t have worried - Bailey took great care of him! We also appreciated that she sent us a photo each day. And the house was neat and tidy when we arrived home. All in all, a very good experience!”
9. Ilia K.
“Ilia is a wonderful sitter. In the single night she spent with our cats, they were clearly happy, content and not missing us at all. It is such a gift to have someone like Ilia care for our beloved animals. Thank you.”
10. Maria C.
“Appreciate all the help to care for our young puppy and animals in our home. The updates were much appreciated! It helped make our first trip away from home reassuring.”
11. Emily C.
“Emily was amazing! We contacted her short notice to hang with our anxious pup while we enjoyed a night out on vacation. She was excellent with communication and our dog was immediately comfortable with her. We would absolutely re-book if paths cross again!”
12. Julia P.
“Julia is a communicative, responsive and loving sitter. She took excellent care of my high-maintenance dog while I traveled abroad for an extended period of time. She put my anxiety about the process to bed within the first couple of days. I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family.”
13. Beth M.
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a child. I have had my own dog for 4 years and know how hard it can be to find reliable pet sitters in the area. Whether you are heading out on vacation or need someone to give your pet extra exercise, I'm happy to help! I have a nervous and reactive dog, so I am comfortable with gentle positive reinforcement and avoiding triggers. I can adapt care to make sure your pet is comfortable and not stressed. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am very available mornings and evenings, and have some flexibility at lunch for short visits. My weekends are wide open and I'd love to take care of your pet! I will treat your home with the same respect and cleanliness that I hope house sitters would treat mine. I can follow whatever rules you normally have with your pet and will do everything to maintain their schedule and sense of normalcy.

“Josh was wonderful! Kept our active border collies busy and well exercised and kept us updated with photos and messages. Will definitely call Josh again in the future!”
