“Brianna is the best! She cared for our four dogs and the house for a week. Not only did she provide excellent care with pictures and updates every day, she also helped diagnose and treat a UTI in our Maris. She medicated Maris who is now fine. The proof of her excellent is how calm our girls were when we got home. I’d say they hardly missed us with Brianna there. We recommend her highly!”
“Gabi house sat for me for 6 days/ 5 nights and took care of my dog and cat. During the entirety of her stay she was very communicative, very attentive to the animals, and comforting to me (since I get nervous when leaving the girls!). Prior to leaving I cleaned my home to be ready for her to stay and when I got home the house was just as clean, if not cleaner. I really highly recommend Gabi as your new sitter! TLDR; Gabi is great, hire her.”
“Aury was wonderful, beyond my expectations! She was responsible, trustworthy, and sent pictures every day! My cat warmed up to her, immediately! I would highly recommend Aury for your pet are needs!”
“Anna was so great with my dogs! She communicated so well which helped us enjoy our vacation away from our dogs. They were taken care of so well with multiple walks, treats and attention!”
“Grace was great. Kept in touch with me during our time away and all was well when we returned. Our pup Pepper was in good hands! We will plan to use Grace in the future!”
“Austin took good care of our girls while we were gone. Both require daily medication, one is older and has a hard time getting around, and the other wants constant attention. So a lot of handle in dog sitting, and he did a good job. While they were excited to see us, they were more their normal selves right away, meaning they were clearly well cared for while we were gone.”
About: I worked at Petco while in college. I have been around animals my whole life. I have experience other cat and dog sitting. I currently have two cats of my own and love them dearly. I will treat and care for your pets just like my Own! I am also a teacher and am very responsible and respectful of your home. I am currently on summer break so I have a lot of time for you and your pets! During the school year I am available nights, weekends, and holiday breaks. I prefer to be at your home, as I am currently living with my parents and my two cats. I want to respect their space. I am very clean, organized, and respectful of others spaces.
“Yuliia was terrific with our very quirky, anxious rescue dog and with our sweet, easy dog. She was patient with the anxious guy and didn't give up on becoming his friend. We'd definitely recommend her!”
“Erica was great! She communicated with us regularly and make us assured our 2 dogs were taken care of. There were tornados while we were gone and our dogs were very nervous. She made sure to cuddle them and make sure they felt comfortable. Erica was also very clean and our house was just as we left. We would absolutely hire Erica again.”
About: I have owned dogs sense I was I’d say 6, once I turned 10 I started offering family and friends to watch their animals, which included feeding, playing with, walking, bathing, grooming. I am currently not working, I am currently enrolled in online classes to become a horse trainer, so I am open pretty much always sense all my classes are set paced I don’t offer in home services but I do have a dog of my own you can request that I bring him over to play, he is house trained, but is afraid of big dogs so small dog owners only! I worked for a dog day care company so I have a wide variety of experience with dogs all ages and sizes, as well as basic training in dog first aid.
“Ana was so attentive to our dog Willow’s needs. She was great with communication and gave her some love & great walks! Would definitely recommend Ana as the caretaker for your dog or pet!”
“Amy was absolutely amazing with our 90 lb bulldog, Beast! From the moment we met her, we knew he was in great hands. She was attentive, caring, and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. We loved the updates and pictures she sent, and it was clear that Beast adored her. It’s not easy finding someone who can handle a big, strong pup, but Amy did it effortlessly. We’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—from playful pups and cuddly cats to curious mice and calming fish. Growing up with a variety of pets taught me not just how to care for them, but how to understand their individual needs and personalities. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding routines, giving medication, or just offering love and companionship, I take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care. Alongside my experience with animals, I’m also a responsible and trustworthy house sitter. I treat every home with the same respect and care as I would my own—keeping things clean, secure, and running smoothly while you’re away. Your pets and your home are in safe, caring hands. I regularly care for the pets and homes of close family members on a weekly or biweekly basis—and whenever they need an extra hand. Whether it’s daily feeding, walking, playtime, litter box cleaning, or just keeping pets company while their humans are away, I’m their go-to helper. My schedule is flexible, and I’m always happy to step in and make sure pets feel loved and homes stay well cared for. When you trust me with your pets and home, I bring the same level of care, attention, and responsibility that I give to my own family. Whether it’s sticking to feeding routines, giving medication, or just providing love and companionship, I treat every pet with patience and kindness. I also take pride in keeping your home clean, secure, and well-maintained—just as I do for the homes of my close family members. You can relax knowing everything is in caring, capable hands.
About: Caring for dogs is not a job for me, it's a passion. I have had dogs my whole life and absolutely love being around them! Growing up, I trained all of my family labradors in agility. I had the whole yard set up with an agility set my parents let me buy and put in the yard. I also had my own local dog walking and sitting business when I was young and I miss that everyday -- so here I am! I am very attentive to dogs needs and love seeing that tail wag whether it be from just enjoying the outside air, feeding them, or playing a fun game of tug o war! I love getting to know your dog and their personality, what makes them happy, and how I can help them thrive when their family is not home. I have two friendly yellow Labradors at home with me. They are my bestfriends! My home is great for pets because I live with people who love animals just as much as I do. I live on the river so it is perfect if your pup loves the water! I work a full time job morning shift but I am fully open Saturdays and Sundays. Throughout the week, I am available in the afternoons/early evenings/nights for walks and other services. I am pretty flexible with appointments and scheduling. I always want to make sure your hound is comfortable and has what they need at all times whether it be food, bathroom breaks, fresh air, or some attention! I have experience in dog training and insight into their body language and behavior. I am a very patient person and just want your hound to have a good time and enjoy their time with me. I am always asking for tips and requests from owners to best suit their dogs needs.
About: I have a really deep love for dogs, especially senior pups. I’m naturally gentle, patient, and attentive, which I think older dogs really respond to. I take the time to understand each dog’s unique needs and personality—whether they’re shy, slow-moving, or just need a little extra comfort. I truly care for every dog like they’re my own, and I find real joy in creating a calm, safe space where they can feel at ease. Caring for pets fits really naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy it—it doesn’t feel like a chore to me. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, check-ins, feeding, and cuddles throughout the day. I’m used to structuring my day around a pet’s needs, whether that’s slow morning strolls for older pups, medication routines, or just being a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to adjust to whatever makes your pet feel safe and cared for. I always treat a client’s home with the same respect I’d want someone to have in mine—clean, quiet, and mindful. When I’m in their space, I try to keep things as calm and familiar as possible for the pet. I stick closely to their usual routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, medications, or just how they like to relax. I move slowly, especially with older or anxious dogs, and I pay close attention to their comfort. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, cared for, and never alone.
“Would highly recommend Andrea. She stayed overnight at my apartment with my 2 cats for 12 days. She gave them wet food twice a day with medicine and wasn't bothered when they woke her up at 5:30am. Would definitely use again!”

Erica was very dependable and helpful. She took good care of our 2 furbabies! My dogs loved her. She kept us updated which was really nice and alleviated my anxiety being away from them. I have never met a sitter as efficient and skilled as she is with what she does. I am impressed and will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts for taking very good care of our babies.
Sarah looked after our two cats for a week while we were away and housesat for us, so our animals wouldn't be too lonely while we were gone. One of our felines must be medicated twice a day at very specific times to avoid medical complications. Not only is Sarah confident and comfortable giving our cat his meds, she is prompt and careful when administering his twice daily pills. Knowing that made us very comfortable while we were away. In addition, Sarah's communication style was straightforward and thoughtful. She asked excellent questions and follow-up questions. And when there was an unexpected situation at our house while we were away, she handled it professionally and alerted us to what was happening. I'd highly recommend Sarah to manage petsitting and housesitting.
Julia took amazing care of our home, 2 dogs and 2 cats. We felt so at ease knowing she was there and received regular updates on how things were going as well as photos. I especially appreciate Julia’s approach with our shy rescue pup and our very vocal senior rescue 😅, a balancing act to be sure.
Yovana is reliable, punctual, kind caring. She is very good with cats. She sent me pictures and kept me posted.Boudreaux and Lemieux enjoyed hanging out with her for a weekend. They were well cared for. She fed them and played with them. Yovana is great with communication. She is responsible just all around fantastic! I would definitely use her again! ❤️
