Cora was an excellent sitter that got Ozzy and Dee out for many walks. They loved her and she was attentive and an extremely good communicator which put our minds at ease. Definitely will look to book again and highly recommend to all pet owners!

Ixchel stepped in at the last minute to watch our dog, Rue. Rue can be shy and anxious around new people, and Ixchel knew exactly how to approach her. She provided regular updates and we felt relieved knowing Rue was in good hands. Would recommend her services!

Belinda was an amazing sitter for our Ralphie! I knew from her initial responsiveness and kindness and her superlative reviews on Rover that Ralphie would be in great hands. Belinda really does check all the boxes. She is a wonderful communicator, sharing updates at a perfect frequency. I appreciated all the photos and videos capturing great interactions between her and Ralphie. In addition, Belinda left the house spotless, laundered the towels that she used, and washed Ralph's plates before leaving. It was an easy, pleasant, and stress-free experience that I hope to be able to repeat in the near future. Thank you sincerely, Bel!

Shamiso gave lots of great updates throughout the weekend she was house/dog sitting for us and had a great manner with our dog; I felt comfortable leaving our puppy with her because our she was at ease upon meeting with Shamiso. I also appreciated that she asked detailed questions in advance about caring for Coco/staying at our house.

Keaton was a fantastic house/dog-sitter, taking care of our elderly dog and three cats. Keaton quickly made friends with everyone and updated us twice a day with medication info, walk notes, and photos. We felt relaxed and comfortable knowing our pets (and home) were in good hands. Thank you, Keaton!

Holland got our pup out and about and kept us up to date two to three times a day. We loved the photos she shared. We will absolutely be booking Holland again, thank you!

About: I have had pets my whole life (many cats and a dog—as well as a few reptiles) and have experience looking after both cats and dogs. I currently have one cat named Hildegard (I can spend way too long talking about her) and grew up having four cats in the house! I do not currently have a dog and I would love to spend time taking care of yours! I have flexible availability and will always check in/update the owner as much as they would like. I am a grad student, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I do research and go to libraries during the day when they're open, but aside from that my schedule is pretty open. If there is an issue with scheduling I'm usually able to move things around to make it work and happy to work with you to figure out the best plan for you and your pet(s)! I always check in with the owner if anything comes up and will make sure to send you updates as much as you'd like. I have experience caring for animals and always try my best to read their body language to make sure they're happy and feel safe.

About: Experienced with pets of all walks: puppies needing training (I can keep up your methods or try new ones) to elderly pups with medication schedules. Currently, my availability varies during the day, during the week. Planning in advance is super helpful but I can sometimes meet spontaneous needs, especially in close proximity. Reach out to confirm exact availability. I follow all instructions left by the pet owner and take care to set any alarms for reminders I might need. I care for all pets as though they are my own and give them the care I would want someone to give to my pets.

Meghan was fantastic! I got daily, if not twice daily, reports with photos and I came home to happy pets and a very clean house. I feel so much better about traveling knowing she enjoyed hanging out with my boys (she even blew bubbles for the “baby” (puppy-safe, of course) and they liked her. 10/10 would call Asian and recommend.

Khariss was incredible, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was available for a last-minute dog watch, and from the start, communication was clear, timely, and thoughtful, which gave me real peace of mind. She genuinely cares about making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. My dog can be a little particular, but Khariss handled everything with patience and attention to detail. She kept me updated with photos and messages, so I never felt the need to check in. When I got back, my dog was relaxed, happy, and clearly well taken care of, which says everything. I would trust Khariss again without hesitation and highly recommend her.

We returned to a happy home. Pongo and the house looked great. We appreciate Pond's care of both. The person who previously stayed with (dog-reactive) Pongo moved away, and finding someone new was stressful, but Pongo took to Pond immediately, and Pond's communication and demeaner made us much less anxious about our trip. I hope to book with them again.

Ryon was amazing with our kitties! We cannot recommend Ryon enough. Going out of town is always stressful with 4 kitties at home, but Ryon eased our anxiety by sending daily photos and detailed updates, which was truly appreciated. Ryon clearly spent quality time playing with and comforting our pets. We returned home to four happy, healthy and relaxed animals. Professional, punctual, and a true animal lover, thank you Ryon!
