“Carla is an experienced pet caretaker and we were happy to have her watching our cat and dog while we took vacation. Her communication was fabulous and she went above & beyond keeping our household ticking. We’ll definitely ask her to help out again!”

“Sarah was exceptional. Sending us daily reports on our pups and making sure they had excellent care. Also, house sitting for us alleviated stress for us being away. The pups were very good with her. She won them all over.”


“Nate did a great job watching our pup for the weekend. Crockett had a great time, we had good communication with Nate, and received updates when expected. I highly recommend him!”


“Marissa took great care of our senior dog for the weekend! She was super communicative even before the stay began, and sent us great pics of our guy to keep us updated. She also checked on our chickens and made sure they were all ok, super helpful since they are in different areas and life stages at the moment. Overall Marissa was responsible, kind, and friendly- a great combination for pet sitting! We would welcome Marissa to care for our pets again in the future!”


“Allison did a wonderful job sitting for my older dog. She sent lots of check-ins and photos and was incredibly accommodating. We will be using her again!”


“Liseli is one of the nicest people I have met. My dog Jessey absolutely loved her from the moment she stepped in the door. She’s a fabulous communicator and incredibly neat. Perfect dogsitting experience! Thanks, Liseli!”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young, but just started pet sitting a couple years ago and have worked in the veterinarian field for 5 yrs now. You can also find me helping out in the kennel some days. I currently work full time at a veterinary clinic, usually 4 days a wk. I do work 10 hour days, but always make it a point to go back for a potty break at lunch when housesitting. I have a large, unfenced yard. I do have a tie out or can walk on leash. There are 2 cats in house, that are used to dogs being around. There is also a rabbit, but he is caged.

“Amanda is kind, responsive, professional, and really helped us out with our dog, Pete, over the holidays. The house was immaculate when we returned and I could tell that Pete had had a great few days with Amanda! She also sent daily photos (great photographer!) and gave helpful updates. We'd love to have Amanda come stay here again.”


“Emilia was fabulous. Any household would be lucky to have her. The perfect house/pet sitter!”


“Taylor is sweet and has cared for our cats twice. She is great with communication and keeping us updated, we definitely will have her stay with our kitties again!”


About: I have had dogs and cats since I was a child. I also have experience with a variety of large and small livestock and bearded dragons including one that has special needs. Will gladly look after a variety of pets. I currently work from home so I have a flexible schedule to provide what your pets need while you are away. I am available on weekdays and weekends. I prefer to look after your pets in your home as I feel they are happiest in their familiar environment. I have one mature cat that can be a bit anti social.

“Jason was fantastic. He helped me in a pinch and was prompt, communicative and generally happy to spend time with Chloe (my dog). Received photos and updates. Very good experience, will certainly book again. Thank you Jason!”


About: I am available and have a very flexible schedule. I have raised my own dog for many years and love to tend to others as well. Responsibility, reliability and trustworthiness are guaranteed along with ensured fun and care. I care for my own dog with daily walks, and basic care such as feeding and playful fun. I have been doing this for most of my life because of my pets and would love to do it for others. For my pet, I put him in a harness and on a leash when going on walks and going potty. In a different house that’s more secluded with more landscape, I allow him to roam freely with cautious eyes. For my clients, it depends on what they prefer whether it’s keeping them on a harness or allowing them to roam freely as well.

About: I've had two dogs my whole life and I've been expected to feed them since I was 10. My family has trusted me to take care of their pets while they were away and for a little, over a year, I've been taking care of a neighbor's elder greyhound, including walking, feeding, letting it out, and picking up after it. I'm currently a sophomore at my college which is in Aurora, NY, which means I'm strictly able to do dog walking and house sitting during the summer months or breaks from school when I'm visiting my parents in Maine. During the summer, I'd prefer to walk in the morning before it gets hot, but I can walk in the afternoon if that works better for people. I'm able to do dog walking and house sitting, but I can't have other animals at my house because my dogs tend me reactive toward other animals and people, especially other dogs that are on their property. I'm very willing to walk dogs, big or small, near a client's home or at a place nearby. I'm willing to drive if the dog has a typical walking route. I'm very flexible, especially if it makes the dog more comfortable. I've also walked and grown up around Berenese Mountain Dogs, so I know how to handle every dog breed, since I've grown up with dogs as small as Boston Terriers and as big as Great Danes and St. Bernards.

“Wendy was amazing and took care of all my fur babies for the weekend. She truly cares about all animals and is fantastic. Thank you again, Wendy, for the last minute booking!”

Very capable on keeping environment clean and safe for any pet.

“Caroline did an amazing and thorough job with our fur baby! We had last minute travel plans come up and she was still able to accommodate our crazy schedule. She took multiple walks with Zeke and was great at communicating and sending pictures. Zeke is a pretty anxious dog, but he was comfortable with her right away, as were we! She asked questions that showed she genuinely was interested in making sure he was comfortable. We will definitely be booking Caroline again and would highly recommend her!”


“Atlas is the best dog sitter we’ve found on this app - probably that we’ve found ever. We cannot recommend her more highly. She went above and beyond for our dogs and was quickly our reactive dog’s favorite person. We’ll be booking with Atlas for all our future travel and dog sitting needs.”


“Anna was fantastic with our dog and cat while we were away. She kept us in the loop on activities they were doing, walks they went on and sent plenty of photos. Highly recommended!!! Will book again.”

Tonya P.
“To whom it may concern, I am written a letter of recommendation for Tonya Patten as a pet sitter. I have know Tonya for 30+ years and her care for animals has always been beyond exceptional. Wether large animals or the smallest of creatures she always goes the extra mile to make sure they have what they need. I have seen her nurse sick animals back to health, bring a reptile back to good health and care for aging dogs and cats with the care, love and respect that they all deserve. You could not find a better representative for your service. She has helped me with my dog and gave her all the love that I do.”

She treats all pets as if they're her own, and creates a strong connection with them. These reasons are why I personally recommend Falisity as a dog sitter!”
