Hannah was great! My cats are a little rambunctious and like to spend the day outside and are sometimes a bit difficult to find when it comes time to come home. Hannah traversed blocks and bushes to track these little guys down to make sure they spent the night safe and sound at home! She sent lots of pictures and updates. I would definitely hire her again!

Danielle C was an outstanding pet and house sitter! I could not recommend her more. She communicated with me throughout her stay, sent amazing photos and clearly loved being with my dogs. I can’t wait to have her back :-)

We booked Miranda to watch our two puppos for a long weekend! She was communicative and asked questions and shared pictures, also very responsive! When we had a flight delay she was able to arrange for our dogs to be watched for a couple more hours.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they’ve always been my favorite kind of company. I’m patient and keep things calm and low-key. I only watch one dog at a time, so you can rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own. Since I work remotely, your dog won’t be left alone much and will get attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow whatever routine helps your dog feel most comfortable. Happy to send you photos and updates throughout the day as well. I’m flexible with pickup and drop off times. I will be with your pup all day, and they’ll get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. If they’re a high energy dog, they’ll get long walks. If they’re a senior or low energy, I’ll take them on shorter walks or just let them sniff in the yard.

About: I have hands on experience with dog walking, house sitting, and cat sitting, and I’ve also had dogs of my own, giving me a strong understanding of daily care, routines, and pet behavior. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail oriented, making sure your pet stays on their routine and feels comfortable at home. I provide updates, follow instructions closely, and prioritize your pet’s safety and well being at all times. I’m currently a nursing student working part time, but I have a flexible schedule and make time for pet care. With summer break coming up, I’ll have significantly more availability and flexibility throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and house sitting. I can accommodate more daytime care during the summer. I’m reliable with scheduling and make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I have experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of proper introductions, routines, and supervision. I will always follow your pet’s routine closely. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, attentive, and make sure your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away.

About: My father raised and trained dogs so I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I have been personally caring for my own dogs as well as dogs of family and friends for the past seven years. I am medically trained for emergencies and can care for special needs and sick dogs. I will treat your pet with the love and kindness as I do my own. I can be available day and night, weekends and holidays even on short notice. I am hoping to make this a full-time position and will be available seven days a week 24 hours a day and can provide same-day service. I will follow all rules of the home in which I am sitting. I will never leave pets unattended. They will have my full attention and safety is my number one priority.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We cannot say enough wonderful things about Mike! From the moment we connected, Mike was professional, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Scout can be a bit anxious and requires extra attention, and Mike went above and beyond to make sure Scout felt comfortable, safe, and cared for. That meant the world to us. We received thoughtful updates and could tell Scout was in such good hands the entire time. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing our sweet pup was being so well cared for. Mike is reliable, attentive, and truly treats your pet like their own. We would absolutely recommend Mike to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Don’t hesitate—Mike is a gem!

About: I have been a pet owner my whole life and have cared for so many varieties of animals I feel I am equipped to handle a lot! I currently have a dog, a cat and a horse and I have been dog sitting for about 5 years. I've also taken care of cats, horses, fish and birds for people and am open to caring for all species! I am very conscientious and trustworthy and have many references- I love the dogs first and foremost and will take loving care of them and would treat them as you would yourself. I'm a member of City Bark and used to being surrounded by all breeds, sizes and temperaments! I'm meticulous and will care for your home as much as your beloved pet.

Cole did a great job pet sitting for our two pups. One is very high energy, which was no trouble for Cole. The other is diabetic and needs insulin. Cole didn't have previous injection experience but was willing to learn and up to the task. We came home to two happy and healthy dogs and would definitely use Cole again.
