“Laurie was great with my dogs and cat for the weekend. She sent many pictures that I loved seeing while away from my fur babies. On time and very respectful of my house. I came home to no messes and happy pets”
“Chelsea was an absolutely wonderful sitter to our dog and three cats! Our dog is anxious and reactive and from our meet and greet to the actual day of sitting, Chelsea respected his space, followed all of our instructions, and went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. She also was great with our cats that all warmed up to her so quickly. We are so grateful to Chelsea for the updates she gave us, as we were actually able to enjoy our weekend knowing our pets were in good hands. Will definitely be hiring Chelsea in the future and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Natalie was great! Toby was happy and relaxed when we came home. Every day we got photos and notes - clearly they liked each other. All good! I will definitely post ask for Natalie whenever we go away.”
About: Hello!! My name is Briana, but I go by Bri :). I’ve been caring for animals most of my life. I”ve had guinea pigs, hamsters, cats, dogs, and fish. I have my own cat for over 5 years and have regularly helped friends and family with their pets while they are on vacation. Whether that’s walking them, feeding them, playtime or cuddles. I’m all about giving your fur babies a comfortable and loving space as well as giving you a peace of mind! :) I currently work a full time job Monday-Friday. I get off around 4:30-5 each day (depends) and I’m pretty much free on most weekends :) I prefer not to care in my home since I still live with my parents. However, in your home, I would make sure your pet gets the love and care they need and deserve! I will make sure they stay hydrated, fed, loved for, play with them, even take them on walks or cuddle and watch a movie! :)
About: Im a great pet sitter, im caring, reliable, attentive, patient, experienced with animals, communicates well with owners, I follow instructions, ensure, safety, and provide love and companionship. Pet care fits into my routine through daily visits, feeding, playtime, walks, and check-ins. I always prioritize consistency, ensuring each pet feels loved and safe. In a clients’ home, I follow their pet’s routine—feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and lots of affection. I keep their space clean and comfortable.
“Micah was awesome! He got along great with our Ruby and Lily. He asked all the right questions. When we were away and he wasn’t sure of something, he asked. He was a trooper with our Ruby who is afraid of bad weather and he handled it awesomely. He picked up after himself and left the house in great condition. Highly recommend!”
“McKayla did wonderful with my chows! She was attentive with all 3 and careful to keep the two females apart since they do not get along. She kept them on their feeding schedule and on their potty schedule and won Simba over immediately! I will definitely reach out to McKayla in the future when I need a sitter! Highly recommended!”
About: While I’ve never had the chance to own a pet of my own, I’ve always loved animals and have been deeply involved in helping care for them. I’ve helped raise and care for two cats and three dogs within my close network of friends and family by taking part in everything from feeding, walking, training to playtime and building trust. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to read animal behavior, respond with patience and calm energy, and understand the daily needs and routines that keep pets happy and healthy. I may not have had my “own” pet yet, but I’ve shown up for animals like they were my own and I am looking forward to caring for animals while I'm exploring new opportunities in my career. I'm currently available full-time in the DMV area [Mon-Sun] between the hours of 0500 & 1800. I'm willing to travel to build a customer base. Caring for animals comes natural for me. I have a keen sense of awareness and can anticipate and meet the needs of animals just through observing their breathing, posture, and reactions to environmental stimuli. I always travel with water, treats, and blankets to account for changes in weather or in case of emergency.
“This was the first time hiring Melisha for a multiple day/night stay, and we’re checking the calendar to figure out when to hire her next. Updates and pictures provided regularly. The 2 dogs and cat couldn’t have been in more capable hands. Even with a bit of a ruckus with the 2 huskies hanging up on the poor cat, Melisha was calm, cool and collected. I can’t come up with more words of praise for all that she did in the care of our 3 pets. She’s going to be tired of seeing our name pop up in her notifications. :)”
“Abby did a phenomenal job house sitting and making sure our furry companions were happy and healthy. She was very communicative and sent pictures & a video. I appreciate the help and attentiveness. I recommend Abby and will rebook as needed if her schedule allows.”

“We booked Jenna to do a house sitting for our pets and I couldn't be happier with the care Jenna provided for all my pets- and for us. Jenna was professional, reliable, and clearly comfortable with animals. She kept me updated with daily messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind I needed while I was away. My pets were happy, fed, and received plenty of potty breaks and attention. I highly recommend Jenna to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I will definitely book with Jenna again when I am in need!”

About: I have had all kinds of animals, including cats, hamsters Bunnies, and dogs. My dog Meera has glaucoma. This means I have given her eyedrops three times a day since she was one.

I’m currently available any time after 3:30 on weekdays and anytime on the weekend but I am looking to be a lot more flexible Monday-Friday in the near future. Right now I have one cat and dog. My dog needs medicine in her eyes three times a day and is sensitive to most people. My cat is an indoor only cat but is able to go out in our closed in patio when the weather permits. They eat at the same time twice a day, half a can of wet food for each.

Jeremy F.
“As Jeremy's neighbor, I've seen firsthand how much he cares for animals. He's always been the first to offer help when someone's pet gets loose or needs a little extra attention. I remember one time when my cat, Oliver, got stuck in a bush, and Jeremy didn't hesitate to rescue him. He's incredibly patient and gentle, and animals seem to gravitate towards him. I often see him playing with his own dog, and it's clear that he understands their needs and knows how to make them happy. Knowing that Jeremy is looking after your pets would give you complete peace of mind. He's not just a pet sitter; he's a true animal lover.”
Linda M.
“We had a wonderful experience with Linda as our pet sitter for our three fur babies! We’ve relied on her for both drop-in visits and staying overnight, and she’s consistently been trustworthy, punctual, and friendly, with very reasonable pricing. Linda treated our dogs like her own, which gave us such peace of mind. She also shared her extensive experience caring for a wide range of animals, including large and small dogs, cats, birds, fish, and more. She’s also helped us bring in the mail and bring our trash cans to the curb while we were away. We wholeheartedly recommend her without hesitation! Thanks for all that you do for us, Linda! :-) <3 Ryan, Noelle, Ryder, Noki, and Poe”
