“Mila was great! She put our minds at ease by sending regular pics and updates. She walked our furbabies each day and was careful about our specific feeding and med routine.

We would definitely recommend Mila and will hopefully be able to have her watch our home and kiddos in the future!”

“Taya was a great dog, kitty and house sitter! She sent us photos of the dogs, with her, and even one of Princess on her lap- Princess who takes her time warming up to anyone! The house was so neat and tidy when we got back- she is easy to communicate with, very good with our little critter family! We will hire her again for sure! It was so good to know our dogs and cats were safe and happy in their own home.”

“Jasmyne has been taking care of my pets, dogs and cats, for several years. She not only cares for them, eight in total, but also my houseplants and my garden.

13. Aurora S.
About: I've been living and taking care of different kinds of animals for more than 10 years. I have learned from my parents and my sister. I am currently looking for a new job and I though this would be a great opportunity to try make some money to help me find a better lifetime opportunity. I have a huge fence yard. We have a sliding door. We keep everything that is not safe up and out of the animals mouth.


14. Justin D.
About: I’m a great dog sitter because I genuinely love animals and understand their needs. I provide a safe and comfortable environment for dogs, ensuring they feel at home while their owners are away. My experience allows me to handle different breeds and temperaments, and I always prioritize their well-being. I enjoy taking them for walks, playing their favorite games, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. With me, pet owners can rest assured their furry friends are in caring and capable hands! I work full time but I have 2 dogs of my own and we go on weekly trips to the dog park to ensure they’re getting plenty of excercise. Whatever routine you guys have the dog on a daily basis I will ensure that theirs is no disruption in their schedule. That way when you come back there is no stress.

She was very caring with our pups and took excellent care of them. She was excellent with communication! Highly recommend! We will use her again for sure ! Thank you Jamie!”


17. Heather P.

“Heather was truly outstanding! The care and effort she put into my furbabies was completely phenomenal. She has excellent communication, keeps a timely schedule, and is compassionate and patient. I'll be calling on her every time I'm away from home. I couldn't possibly give her enough commendation or praise. I'm so thankful that she was here for my critters while I was away. She is amazing!”
