“Cece was just perfect. We had a last minute invitation and I called her on the day we had to leave and she jumped right in and saved the day. Cece called me as she was getting ready for work and assured me not to worry that she would be happy to doggie sit for us. We left early that morning and Cece came to our house on her lunch break to meet Frida. We had a wonderful weekend knowing that our pet was well taken care of. I look forward to meeting Cece the next time we go out of town, hopefully soon!”
“Madalys was a great house-sitter for our 2 dogs for the day while we were out. Although she was a bit late - hadn't told us she would be using bus/Uber to get here - she and her 1 yr old daughter had a wonderful time playing with the dogs and keeping them engaged. She is a very sweet gal and we would use her again.”
About: I've babysat for my aunts and grandparents dogs over the years. I love animals so much and hope to have plenty of them in the future! So I'm looking to get as much experience with all breeds as possible! I'm currently unemployed which means I'll have tons of availability and free-time to give your pets the best care possible! I also have a rotating sleep schedule so I'm usually available for all different times I take care of pets by keeping a close eye on them and consistently checking in on what they might need. With 3 pets of my own I'm used to constantly checking water, scheduled feedings, and making sure they get plenty of exercise
“We have now used Kim three times to take care of our Labrador retriever Finnegan , but this was was the first time we were away for a week - the other times were just weekend stays. We needn't have worried as Finnegan had a great week with Kim. She sent us numerous pictures of him playing with his toys, going on walks and lounging in the pool. He had a wonderful time and we came home to a happy dog. We definitely plan to call on Kim whenever we go away and in fact have already booked her for later in the year.”
“WOW! Brandi was the BEST fit for my fur baby, Chaka. Brandi is an excellent caregiver, kind, patient, she followed our routine, took extra time and care to make sure that my anxious puppy was comfortable and got plenty of exercise, cuddles and playtime. I have never had a dog sitter take better care of my dog. Typically when I hire a sitter, they take her outside on a quick walk and just bring her back inside, but Brandi went above and beyond! She spent the entire day keeping her company and updated me with photos and videos of their adventures together around the house and at the park. I was blown away by her care and expertise. As far as Chaka and I are concerned, Brandi is family now and I am absolutely booking her again.”
“Kate was absolutely amazing with my puppy! She sent lots of photos and updates and made sure my little Sharon was loved and exercised while I was away on a work trip. She made sure everything went very smoothly!”
About: I have a huge passion for dogs and know the struggle of work/life/pup balance.

I am self employed so I have a flexible schedule throughout the day, I also have the ability to work from home when needed incase I believe in positive reinforcement and also care.

“Devora was fantastic!!”
About: Hi! My name is Keira, and I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds my entire life. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Health and Behavior and currently work as an animal caretaker at my local nature center. I have hands-on experience with everything from daily pet care to administering medications when needed. Whether you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, or just someone who genuinely loves animals—I’m here to help. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I have my own pets as well including a dog, cats, bird, chickens, gerbil, etc. I have some experience in grooming and training if you would like any extra services let me know! I currently work part time at my local nature center 9am-2pm, 4 out of 7 days a week. Not long hours so I am able to walk dogs earlier and right after work. Or come back after work to pet sit if needed. At an owners house I would ask the pet parent what they think would be best but at my own house I have a big backyard to play with any dogs in my care (leashed or off leash). Any food provided will be fed by instruction and if medicine is needed to be given I can assist with that as well. Always fresh water nearby for any fur baby in my care.
About: Hi! My name is Rachel and I am a lifelong animal lover. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or walk time, I treat every pet like my own. I am ready to keep your pets happy while you're away! I am a teacher in graduate school looking for part-time work this Summer. I am free for the Summer aside from two vacations. June 18-June 23 and July 19-26. During the school year, I would be happy to stay in your residence to take care of cats while going to work. My school year starts September 2. I always strive to care for my clients pets as if they were still taking care of them. I am happy to keep up with specific schedules and routines to help animals feel comfortable while their owner is gone.
“Molly is very kind and considerate to all of our pets needs. She followed all instructions and went above and beyond while house sitting to make sure we came home to happy dogs and a clean home. Can easily trust her to make sure our dogs are cared for while we're away.”
“Rocelyn is great! She took care of our four large dogs over the weekend and was extremely communicative. Our pack has specific needs, rules and boundaries that we wanted someone to keep up with and Rocelyn followed our instructions and handled them extremely well. She was also extremely respectful of our home and kept everything tidy which was lovely to come home to!”
“Tatiana looked after our dog Delilah whilst we were in England for a week. She did a truly wonderful job- taking great care of Delilah and of our house and kept in touch with the loveliest photos and videos. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
“Meghan did a great job taking care of our dog Izzie in our home for a week! She is thoughtful and responsible and we plan to have her watch Izzie again this summer!”
“Charlotte was absolutely wonderful with my dog Lily. She really helped me when I was in a pinch and was super responsive and kind. Would definitely leave Lily with her again!”
“Great communication. Ginger sent a lot of cute pictures of Jasper during her overnight stay. Took him on multiple walks. Everything went smoothly. Would use her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 11. Neighbors and family friends have relied on me to watch, feed, and play with their pets. My first job was as a Recreation Assistant at a nursing home, and it helped me realize that one of my main passions is caring for others, whether that’s seniors or furry friends! I’m currently working part time, so I have ample time to watch and play with your pets! My flexible schedule and ability to commute allows me to be available for last minute bookings. I treat my clients’ space and animals with the same respect as I would my own. I closely follow owner’s specific care instructions, such as feeding schedules, walk/play times, and medication if needed. I always want to ensure every pet feels comfortable and safe under my care. I also make sure to keep your home clean and tidy before it’s time for me to go—wiping paws after walks if needed and cleaning up after meals. I send regular updates/photos to pet parents to make you feel at ease. A pet parent’s absence can be stressful, so my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they can be as stress-free as possible while you are away.
“Kim took excellent care of our 3 boys for the week! Communication is especially strong - always quick to respond! The boys hope she’ll come back to see them again!”
“We are so thankful we found Valeria to stay with our precious Chancey shortly after we moved to our house. She was clear, organized, stuck to our usual schedule and sent frequent detailed updates with photos 😍. It is clear that she is very experienced with dogs and training. Thank you so much Valeria!”

Stephanie is an amazing dog sitter that is always flexible and helpful. She takes care of our babies like they are her own.
Maria was absolutely wonderful with my cat! She took the time to understand kitties personality and routines, sent regular updates with photos, and made sure she felt comfortable and cared for while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty and a spotless space. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and kind sitter!
Lauren was great with mocha. She understood Mocha's temperament and very quickly gained the trust of our anxious little one. She sent us updates through the day, which was reassuring.
Clare was a wonderful sitter for Gypsy! She sent updates and photos which was thoughtful and great. We will be back!
