“Deanna is wonderful. I was nervous to leave my two cats, but as soon as I met Deanna my worry was gone. She's clearly done this before and cares about our animals. We received pictures and videos everyday and the cats seemed quite happy when we got back. Deanna took really good care of my babies and I am grateful for that. Also our apartment has a very difficult door/entrance and she was very patient and willing to figure it out. Deanna rules.”

“Thank you so much! I really appreciate the thoroughness and the kindness and the prompt visits! I will definitely be requesting you again when I have to go out of town!”


“Lindsey took excellent care of my cats, who are especially needy! She spent a lot of time with them and clearly gave them lots of love while I was away. Thank you Lindsey!”

About: Foster dog mom and dog sitter. Recently lost my beagle and miss pup time. I treat my friend’s dogs like my own and they actually encouraged me to start a profile. I like walking and don’t mind slow sniffers. I’m aware of squirrels and cats in my neighborhood and avoid them when necessary. I work full time but have availability evenings and weekends. Looking forward to long walks, tails wagging while sniffing and again meeting daily step goals. I have a small backyard and shotgun house which I own. I can crate if necessary but if your fur baby is trustworthy, I’m happy to let him or her free range guard my house during the day. The window facing the street is typically pretty entertaining. I got rid of my dog camera when Maggie passed away but may set an iPad up, again. Meet n Greets prior to a stay is a must, my foster dog is dog-shy at first but loves people.
“Ellen was so attentive and loving to my girl while I was away. Spent time giving her love and attention as well as taking care of her feeding / walking needs. She was super attentive and gave lots of picture updates too. Would definitely book again.”


About: I've cared for dogs and cats my whole life, providing loving and reliable care. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they're safe, happy, and with full bellies. I have three cats of my own so I know how to manage different personalities and needs. I am currently working part time, so I have lots of free time to spare to take care of pets. My schedule is very flexible and I can be available to take care of any pet needs within only a few hours notice. I have pets of my own so I understand how reassuring it is to have a trustworthy person looking after them during a busy work week. In my own home, I ensure that each of my pets live a healthy and fulfilling life. They have regular nutritious meals along with plenty of exercise. I also tune into each of my pets unique personality and ensure they each get individual attention to make them feel loved. My pets are a part of my family and are treated as such. I offer dog walking, dog and cat sitting, feeding, and potty breaks. I do not offer boarding in my personal home or training.
About: Hello! My first job was at a veterinary clinic. Since then I have been the go to pet sitter for my friends and family. I have done everything from overnights, extended stays, and drop ins. I have even cared for up to dogs at one time. I take pride in making sure your furry pals are well taken care of while you are away. I have 3 days off a week. The rest of the week I have mornings and afternoons free. I cant think of a better way to spend my days off. I like to have a conversation with the owners. They get to tell me what the needs of their pet is. I do my best to ensure that their pets receive a high level of care. The goal is to make everyone happy.
“Ebony is awesome! So grateful she was able to care for our boy while we're away. Ebony was flexible and able to accommodate our last minute request and changes in our travel. I will definitely book Ebony again.”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats and have always loved caring for them. I regularly walk and watch pets for friends and family. I currently have one sweet cat of my own and treat every pet like they’re part of the family! Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine since I work from home with a flexible schedule. Walks are a great midday break, and my evenings and weekends are usually open, making it easy to provide reliable, consistent care throughout the week. When caring for pets in my home or others, I prioritize their safety, comfort and routine, I treat every pet with love, patience, and reliable attention – just like they’re my own. You can trust that your pet is in caring, capable hands at all times.
“Sarah was great!! This was the second time she watched our pets (1 dog, 2 cats and a fish). She checked in on them multiple times a day, sent us updates, and followed the detailed notes we left her. We felt like they were in such great hands that we could actually enjoy our trip without worrying about if they were getting the care we needed. We'll definitely book Sarah next time we travel!”

“E is super attentive, responsive, respectful and overall a great with my dog! E sent thorough updates and pics to me while I was away and made me feel reassured Oreo was taken care of. I would definitely recommend and book for further outings. Thanks so much!!”

“Great job, Cody! We felt perfectly at ease leaving our precious "girls" with you! Thank you for your attention to detail and attentiveness, they were extremely well cared for.”

About: As a rising first-year veterinary student at Cornell University, I've spent years volunteering in animal care settings, including veterinary hospitals, doggy daycares, training facilities, and animal shelters. These experiences have given me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities, while teaching me how to recognize and accommodate their individual needs. I also have two Standard Poodles that I've raised from puppies. They couldn't be more different—one is calm and gentle, while the other is energetic and always ready for adventure! Caring for dogs with such different temperaments has made me comfortable adapting to each pet's unique personality and routine. I've trained both of my dogs myself using positive reinforcement, so if you'd like, I'm happy to reinforce basic obedience or practice a few simple tricks during visits. I also groom them myself during school breaks, giving me experience with routine coat care and handling. I'm patient, attentive, and detail-oriented, and I'll tailor my care to whatever makes your pet happiest—whether that's a long walk, an active play session, exploring outside, or a quiet afternoon of companionship. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. As a first-year veterinary student, my schedule allows me to provide pet care through morning visits, lunchtime drop-ins, evening visits, and overnight stays. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet while you’re away, making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I am happy to come to your home and follow your lead to create the best experience for your pet! I can follow normal routines to keep them at ease, or create new adventures to use up their extra energy.
“Danielle watched our dog Finley while we were away on spring break. We both felt immediately comfortable with her on our first visit. He was very well cared for. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”

“RILEY, Was a great with Mindy. Throughout the whole experience she stayed in contact. Riley showed her 5 star experience with photos of Mindy and I would definitely use her again.”

“We can't say enough good things about Nycole. Our diabetic, kidney-compromised, 15 year old cat, Wylean, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, has been on a feeding tube since early November with a whole litany of medications. Nycole, a skilled and longterm vet tech, was able to give truly incredible, exhaustive care to Wylean for days, both during this latest stay to see my parents (my dad was and still is in the hospital for a broken hip) and during Christmas (to see my mother-in-law in hospice). Her three times a day updates were like something a seasoned vet would make, and Wylean was markedly better when we returned than when we left. She has gained the better part of a pound over the last month, and I credit Nycole for at least part of that. We will always be grateful. If we could leave one hundred stars, we would. A combination of empathy, high skill, talent, and an obvious, deep love for animals makes Nycole the best. Anyone hiring her is lucky, and we only hope we can hire her again for future trips. Thank you thank you thank you, Nycole!”
About: Hi! I’ve spent the last 11 years as a Paramedic and, while I love helping people…I love helping animals too! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for caring for pets of all kinds. Ever since I was a child, animals have been a central part of my life. My family often took in dogs and cats in need, and I even bottle-fed orphaned puppies and kittens many times, helping them grow strong and healthy. Those early experiences shaped my calm, patient, and nurturing approach to animal care. Being a Paramedic has taught me how to remain calm under pressure. Also, that no one person is the same and will respond the same. Every person is unique. I believe animals are the exact same way! I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood—especially while their family is away. Whether your pet(s) are energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or somewhere in between, I take the time to understand their unique personality and adjust my care to meet their needs. From walks and playtime to quiet companionship and cuddles, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and highly communicative. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, so I always prioritize reliability, punctuality, and clear updates. I’m happy to send photos/videos, and messages so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. We can even FaceTime! Although I’m currently unable to have pets of my own where I live, that has only deepened my appreciation for every opportunity I get to spend time with animals. Caring for pets is something I truly love, and I treat every one as if they were my own. I would be honored to care for your pet and provide the same love, attention, and respect I would want for my own. 🐶😽 What I Offer: - Dog & cat walking (structured or relaxed walks based on your pet’s needs) - Drop-in visits for feeding, playtime, and companionship - Pet sitting with attentive, in-home care - Care for dogs & cats of all temperaments 💛 My Care Style: - Patient and gentle approach for all personalities - Focus on safety, comfort, and routine - Calm presence for anxious or shy pets - Active engagement for energetic pets - Always respectful of your home and instructions 📸 Communication Promise You’ll always receive: - Regular photo updates - Clear check-ins after visits - Fast responses to messages - Honest communication about your pet’s well-being 🌟 Why Pet Parents Choose Me: I don’t just “watch” pets—I genuinely care for them.

Delaney is truly the best. This is the second time she watched Gwen and I feel like she cares for her like her own! She’s always taking many pictures and leaving great updates. She went above and beyond, is super flexible, and I will continue to use her whenever I am out of town. Thank you so much!!

Daphne went above and beyond caring for my 2 rabbits. She left incredibly detailed notes that were not only informative, but entertaining and fun to read! She sent so many photos too! On top of that, she even did other things such as helping my downstairs neighbor that was locked out of my building, carrying my heavy water bottles in that were delivered, and trying to fix my Internet. She truly has a deep understanding of animal behavior and really loves them. Thank you so much! Will definitely be booking again.

We had a wonderful experience with Cristina! She was communicative, thorough, and took amazing care of our cat, who requires multiple eye drop medications each day. We appreciated the updates and felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Cortney for any drop-in needs! She checked in on our kitten while we were out of town over three days, and did a wonderful job keeping us updated, sharing pictures, etc. She is a great communicator, trustworthy, and very thoughtful in her messages. We will use her again in the future!

Sarah was great!! This was the second time she watched our pets (1 dog, 2 cats and a fish). She checked in on them multiple times a day, sent us updates, and followed the detailed notes we left her. We felt like they were in such great hands that we could actually enjoy our trip without worrying about if they were getting the care we needed. We'll definitely book Sarah next time we travel!

Sydney went above and beyond with my girls she is absolutely amazing and an all around beautiful person as well. I didn’t worry once about my girls while I was out of town for the first time ever and she went out of her way to do things that weren’t even required of her. I cannot thank her enough and am I am so lucky I found her !!! BOOK HER ASAP!!!!
