1. Jenevieve Y.
“Such a wonderful and competent sitter. Jen and her family are the most heartwarming people and they go out of their way to care for your baby. You will not find a better sitter where your baby is treated as one of the family when you have to be gone! Ever! How lucky are we to have people like Jenevieve in this world?! So grateful. She acted like we were gifting her by leaving our crazy cat that we have had for a month with her. Carrie is the happiest and best version of herself I have ever seen after Jen’s care!”
2. Madison P.
“Madison is the best!! She took such good care of my dog and always takes tons of pictures and videos. So thankful for her and her dogs to keep my own pup company for the weekend!”
3. Maggie G.
“After reading several stellar reviews, I decided to contact Maggie to schedule time for her to kitty-sit my cat, Pebbles. I wasn't quite sure of the time frame to reserve because I didn't know when exactly I would be returning home. Maggie assured me it would be no problem if I needed an extra day. I did, in fact, request an additional day because when I returned home, I was too tired to drive across town to pick up my cat. Maggie said it was fine which I really appreciated! Before I brought Pebbles to Maggie's, I informed her that I wasn't sure how well she would interact with other animals because there are no other pets in my home. Maggie said not to worry and that she has space to separate pets if needed. As anticipated, the next day, Maggie texted to inform me that Pebbles was a bit stressed and did not appreciate the other animals. She kept Pebbles away from the other pets to keep everyone safe and comfortable. Maggie was very good about texting updates and pictures of Pebbles throughout my trip. This was definately peace of mind for me. I have never used a pet sitter before. While on trips, I have either taken my pets to the vet, family, or friends have come to my house to care for them. I was very pleased with Maggie taking care of Pebbles and will definately use her again in the future! I highly recommend Maggie to take care of your pet(s)!”
4. Alice b.
“Alice is absolutely amazing ! As soon as we dropped Benji off, we felt like he was in the best hands! This was one of the first times we were away from him this long and Alice made us feel so at ease and reassured throughout the whole trip! I’ve found a permanent dog-sitter in Alice ! I highly recommend and appreciate you, Alice ! Thank you for everything !!”
5. Cory W.
“Cory is absolutely fantastic. He's highly communicative, wonderful to work with and flexible. I appreciated the welcoming home he provided and his care for my dog Bear.”
6. Robbie H.
“This family took such well care of our boys while away! The updates and photos were so great! There was an incident that occurred and we were given all the details, updates, and even offered support from them! Will definitely choose them again!”
7. Madison T.
“We loved Madison!! Our bloodbound Belle is the sweetest dog but with her size can be a handful..Madison was wonderful with her.....and her dog and our dog Belle became fast friends. I would definitely reccomend her!!!”
8. Jaden B.
“Jaden did a great job with our dogs. You can tell he is an animal lover! Both of my dogs came back content. He told me they were great, which always makes my heart smile. Thanks Jaden!”
9. Lisa S.
“They treated our Zoey like we do: with love and cuddles! Thank you for all the pictures and the follow up! She even got a free ball! Thanks!!!”
10. Mackenzie W.
“Super nice, great communication! Received pictures&/or videos every day. Coco really seemed to enjoy herself and came back happy and freshly bathed! Thank you!”
11. Kim S.
“Kim was great with our pup, Maggie. We felt so at ease with her having fun in a great environment while we were away. She clearly knows how to handle dogs of all kinds and her family takes great care. We will definitely use and recommend Kim again!!”
12. Priscilla R.
“I'M SO GLAD to have found Priscilla and her honey. They were so awesome I highly recommend. Priscilla did excellent with my dogs and one can be a little difficult. She is great with dogs. My dogs were comfortable right away. And I could see thru the pics and videos she would send they continued to feel right at home. Their house is beautiful and they took such good care of my babies. Will use them again.”
13. Justin Z.
“Justin was great! I left my 2 corgis with him for the week. Both my dogs have very different personalities and each one had their needs met. This meant Maple felt like she was at summer camp and played with his dog, chased toys, and had a blast. My shy boy, Milo got his own space where he felt safe made for him, and started warming up over the last few days. The best part was all the great photo updates daily. I 10/10 recommend Justin!”
14. Alexandra H.
“Alexandra made me feel very comfortable leaving Homie with her for a week. Her house is perfectly set up for dogs and she has a massive backyard. She washed Homie’s bedding before we picked him up and his food bowls too. She provided photos every day and really kept us reassured that he was well taken care of.”
15. Samantha P.
“Amazing!! Samantha took great care of my dog and was always interested in learning more ways she could show him love while boarding him! Even though my dog tends to be shy and have a hard time warming up around new people, he LOVED spending time with her and her dogs. Every picture and video she sent was filled with lots of tail wags and smiles. Definitely would book with her 100 more times.”
16. Paige O.
“Paige is a wonderful care taker for my pets. She treats them as her own and as I would want them treated. She is kind and respectful to me, my family and our home while at the same time being a fun and loving caretaker for our dogs. Paige is extremely responsible and has always made the safety of our pets a priority when caring for them. Our dogs are always very excited to see her and exhausted when they get back from a fun afternoon of adventure with her! Paige is excellent at meeting a dog where his or her needs are. With our younger dog she is sure to provide fun and excitement for her and give her time to run around and explore and with our older dog, Paige provides a lot of cuddles and love and mild exercise. Paige is an excellent caretaker and my family and I have enjoyed bringing her into our lives to brighten the days of our dogs while we are away at work.”

“Jessica was very flexible and easy to get ahold of. Pups had a great time playing in her backyard. Would have Jessica watch our dogs again. Thank you Jessica!”
18. Angela W.
“Had a lot of fun with Angie during the stay on Thanksgiving!”
19. Maricela V.
“Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!”
20. Crystal E.
“We had a great experience working with Crystal! She was very responsive leading up the stay. She also provided updates throughout our dog Rosie’s stay and the update shortly after we dropped Rosie off made us feel much more comfortable! Her family (cat included!) were very accommodating!”
