1. Victoria B.
“Great experience with Victoria and Maïka seemed happy. It was easy to communicate with her so I felt confortable leaving Maïka with her during my vacations.”
2. Ryan M.
“Working with Ryan was wonderful! Super responsive, lots of great picture updates, and my dog loved it! Will absolutely use him again! Cannot recommend enough!”
3. Millie B.
“Millie was fantastic! Very responsive and sent constant updates on Alfie, I would absolutely recommend and would rebook!”
4. Saniya S.
“I couldn't recommend Saniya more as an amazing, responsible pet caregiver. I don't trust many people with my fur-baby, and Saniya is just as loving with him as I am (which I didn't think was possible!) She is reliable and responsive and always ensures that pets in her care are happy, safe, and comfortable.”
5. Colin F.
“Colin was a fantastic sitter for our Aussie for a week while we were on vacation. He provided daily updates about our pup's day with plenty of photos and was extremely willing to tailor his care for her around the routine she keeps at home with us. His two dogs are extremely sweet, gentle, and welcoming for new dogs to join their pack; it made me happy to know our pup was so thoughtfully cared for while we were gone!”
6. Tien-Tien L.
“Tien-Tien was amazing with our dog, Bia! We received a lot of pictures and videos of Bia having a blast! Bia loved her dog Qmo and they became instant best friends. Tien-Tien kept us updated and really helped us feel like our dog was in good hands. I highly recommend Tien-Tien and we would love to have her sit our dog again!”
7. Donna B.
“Donna puts incredible love and kindness into her dog-care and I'm so thankful to have found her. Her and her other dogs are such welcoming hosts, and while I was away got to smile and laugh several times a day when Donna sent photos and videos and updates to make sure I always felt in the loop. I wholeheartedly recommend Donna and know I'll be seaking her out again in the future!”
8. Phi T.
“11/10 would recommend!!! Judy had an amazing time during her stay! She has lotsss of energy, and she got taken to the dog park (more than one dog park even) a ton and went on plenty of walks. She also is attention-needy and she got plenty of attention AND her behavior improved so much after staying with Phi too. Some of the behavioral improvements include: learning new tricks I was unable to teach her, no more growling at other dogs while toy sharing, and no more jumping on people / listening more when someone says "no" or "down". I'm very happy that she had such a great stay, and I'm so thankful for the behavioral improvements. I definitely will recommend Phi to anyone looking for a sitter going forward!”
9. Michelle S.
“Harry had the best time with Michelle! She sent tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how he was doing (he made himself right at home). He got plenty of walks and was fed and tired when we picked him up.”
10. Matias D.
“Matias was so great watching my beagle Casey! She had a great time running and playing in the field by his house, and Matias kept me updated daily with her status! I could tell she was even sad to leave and can’t wait to use Matias again!”
11. Sarah S.
“Sarah is wonderful! She was lovely, responsible, and fabulous with our pup who stayed with her for a whole week, and she was perfect in her communication with me. Our dog can sometimes be a little difficult on leash, and she managed him beautifully. She really helped me feel comfortable while away, in not needing to worry at all about my dog. She was also incredibly flexible as it was better for me to drop him off a day earlier than initially planned. I fully and completely recommend Sarah (though I don't really want to because I know she'll become hard to book!).”
12. Jo R.
“Jo did an excellent job of watching Mac Daddy. I received multiple updates each day during the stay, most of which include sitters. I will definitely be keeping Jo in mind for when I have to go out of town in the future.”
13. Christie & Daniel W.
“Christie and Daniel were tremendous hosts. Kai was clearly very happy and comfortable with them and their pup Baobao. They sent us pictures of him every day, which was wonderful. I would wholeheartedly recommend them if you want your puppy to be well taken care of when you have to be away.”
14. Lydia A.
“Lydia was a great sitter. She provided a very detailed daily update and many wonderful photos of the adventures Simsim had with her. She made me feel confident that Simsim was in good hands and enjoying his time with her.”
15. Kayla C.
“Kayla was great! Frieda had so much fun with her dog Summer and Kayla was extremely communicative - photos every day of the walks and hang-out times. Also, Kayla was SO accommodating when my flight got delayed and Frieda had to spend an extra night. Thank you so much Kayla!”
16. Louisa R.
“Louisa is amazing! She made herself available for the last-minute reservation and the same-day dropoff. She was sending photos of Bruno, and I could tell she took great care of him, and he had fun, too. I highly recommend her!!!”
17. Sifan Z.
“Alice was great with my cat, Maia. Although she takes a while to acclimate to new surroundings, she seemed to get comfortable very quickly. Alongside this, Alice's roommate has a cat who lives in the space as well, but she made sure to keep Maia separated as to not cause any fighting. Maia was overall very happy and well taken care of for 10 days while boarding with Alice in her apartment. I received pictures and videos every day so that I wouldn't miss my baby too much. One very nice thing was that when I went to pick Maia up, Alice brought her downstairs for me along with all her materials thoroughly cleaned and packaged up. I highly recommend Alice to take care of any cat!”
18. Ilya V.
“Ilya was responsive, gave detailed daily updates, and sent pictures throughout the stay. He took Lia on multiple walks a day, and I think she really enjoyed her time there. I also appreciated that Ilya was super accommodating with a last minute change in my pick up time.”
19. Ethan M.
“Ethan was extremely communicative and my dog had an absolute blast staying with him! He sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the day and was flexible when I had a change of schedule (watched her 5 hours longer than originally planned). When I picked my dog up, she was exhausted and clearly already loved Ethan. I would highly recommend using Ethan for your dog as well!”
20. Julia R.
“Most incredible cat sitters. They took such good present care of Gouda, he was so happy and calm. They sent so many updates and videos and I was so comfortable that he was doing well. Thank you!”
