Madeline has stayed with Harley multiple times now, and she’s been incredibly attentive to his needs, communicative about how he’s doing, and flexible. She’s an awesome sitter that I’m glad Harley and I can rely on!

Melina is fantastic! She stayed with my 2 pups, Rudy and Rondo, for 4 days while I was on a business trip. I received multiple pictures and updates that put me at ease during my travels. I am an anxious traveler and I was very comfortable knowing she was taking such good care of my sweet dogs. I highly recommend her for walks, overnight stays and pet care overall. Thank you for everything. ❤️??

Wow, what to say about Grace? Nothing but good things! My partner and I went on a 9 day trip to Europe and, before we went, I was extremely nervous. Like most people, our 2 dogs (and 1 cat) have a very particular schedule and I was so worried that no one would be able to take care of them the way WE did. I’m so happy to say that Grace immediately put those fears to rest. At my request, she sent twice daily updates, along with photos, showing her adherence to the pets’ routines. We still retained our dog walker and he had nothing to report but positive things about Grace and her care of the animals. We even had a friend stop by (did I mention how nervous I was???) and she had nothing but good things to say about Grace. Grace took all of my instructions and nerves with aplomb, and, dare I say it, grace. We’re so happy with her services and hope she will sit for us again soon!

Wow, where do I start? Jana is such a great sitter, super communicative and anticipates my cats and my needs before I even ask them. She really sees my cats unique personalities, and I can tell from the photos she shared that they really trust her. She got my shyer cat who typically hides for days to sit with her on the very first day! She left my house sparkling clean. I trust Jana completely.

Jill was fantastic! We got updates every day with photos, activity updates and cute comments. I our dog got plenty of exercise and was taken to all kinds of places. She also paid lots of attention to our shy cat. When we came home, our house was immaculate and our dog almost didn’t want to leave her side! ( he finally figured out who pays for his treats?) We would hire Jill again without hesitation!!!

Lauren and Justin were so great watching my Lucky boy! They kept me updated everyday and sent me the cutest photos while I was away and even left me some cute polaroids of Lucky when I returned home! I returned to a very clean house which made my long journey home so much better! I will definitely have them watch Lucky again because I know he loved them and felt super comfortable with his new friends!

Jason was so amazing! My two Weimaraners adored him. At the initial meet and greet I was so impressed by him and immediately felt comfortable with him watching my girls and my home. He took good care of my home while I was away and even left the house tidier than when I left it. He sent me several pics of my girls daily and kept me updated on how they were doing. I will definitely be having Jason watch my girls again.

Maia has always been good with animals, whether her her own or someone else's. She is active enough to keep up with excitable dogs and relaxed enough to manage nervous cats (like my own). If you're looking for someone to watch over your pet, Maia is a good, reliable option.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!, You truly went above and beyond, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Your genuine love and understanding of dogs were evident from the moment I met you. Ziggy instantly warmed up to you, and I could tell he felt safe and loved under your care. The regular updates and adorable photos you shared during his stay brought a smile to my face and reassured me that he was having a fantastic time with you. Ziggy was being a picky eater when I was away and Ethan had excellent recommendations for food toppers and picked them up from the pet store for me! Your friendly and relaxed approach made Ziggy feel right at home, and I could see the bond you formed with him. Thank you so much for treating Ziggy like family and providing him with such a wonderful experience. I give Ethan my highest recommendation to anyone in need of a caring and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you again <3
