“Brenda was a wonderful sitter for Penny! She was responsive, detail orientated, sent the best pictures, and I could tell she really cared about Pennys wellbeing! Would highly recommend.”

“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”

“Kevin and his partner took great care of our dog, Ozzy. We got nice pics everyday, so we could see how he was doing. They took Ozzy on walks, and the communication was excellent. The whole process was smooth and easy. I highly recommend Kevin.”

“My 2 year old Springer Spaniel Boxer mix, Edie, had a wonderful time with Jana and her family! When I normally leave Edie at her doggy daycare to travel, she barely eats and seems anxious when I come to pick her up. Not the case this time! Edie ate all the food I had packed for her along with all the treats! She loved running around and puppy style wrestling with Hazel! Jana gave me updates twice a day with pictures and videos of the ladies playing. I truly do believe that Edie had a dog vacay with Hazel and Jana!”

“Erin and Kevin are so good with my big, eager-to-please GSP dog. They send amazing pics and Pip is always so happy to run up the stairs to greet them when we drop her off. Thanks Erin and Kevin!”

“Melissa and Allan were great hosts and truly cared for our two high energy dogs. They took them for several walks a day and kept up constantly updated on our dog’s stay while we were away. 10/10”

“Devan was great! Checked in with us regularly to let us know how Blaze was doing and settling in. I could tell that Blaze was well cared for and had a great time with Devan and his partner! Will definitely use him again!”

“Einstein have been going to Matt's for almost 10 years so obviously we love Matt! We recently just adopted a second dog who is a 7 months old puppy and we took her to Matt for the first time. He was so awesome and patient with her even though she's not potty trained and is still learning her social skills. When we first dropped her off, she was very timid but about an hour in we got a video from Matt. She was having a blast! All of our dogs loves Matt and we trust him completely with our fur babies!”

“My quirky pup, Poppy, had a wonderful time staying with Mimi over the weekend. Mimi was very communicative and provided lots of updates, pics, and videos. Poppy is leash reactive and not the most social dog, but Mimi is very experienced with nervous or anxious dogs and quickly brought Poppy out of her shell. Poppy is already looking forward to her next stay!”

“Theresa Ann took such good care of our pup and was very communicative with updates and photos while we were away. Lucy came home with the biggest smile on her face, and she can’t wait to hang out with Theresa Ann again!”

“This is our third time with Rachael, and our dog gets so excited when she realizes where we are when I drop her off. Rachael is so communicative and puts us at ease with pictures videos and updates. We are so grateful we found her!”


“Greg was a phenomenal sitter to my best friend! He sent daily updates, pictures, and clearly devoted a lot of 1 on 1 time with my dog throughout his stay. He was quick to communicate and my dog fell in love with him immediately. I would highly recommend Greg and will absolutely request him in the future without hesitation.”

“Catherine was fantastic! She asked a lot of questions to make sure she had all the info she needed and even walked with me and Molly around the block as a meet and greet before. Molly had a fantastic time at the Seattle center and being out and about!”

“Millie and Poppy had the best time with Micaela! She took them to the beach, played in the garden, and even got to play with kids from the neighborhood. She was super communicative and shared many videos and photos along the way, giving me total peace of mind they were in great hands while I was away! Would absolutely rebook!”

“I’ve booked them several times for two dogs. I could tell my fur babies get a lot of love and affection in their home (e.g., cuddling on the sofa together). They are highly responsive, friendly, stay connected with photos, and accommodating. I’m so glad l have a reliable sitter close to me. I can always count on them if they are available.”

“Maria went above and beyond in every possible way to care for our dog, Biscuit. She did a thorough meet and greet and read through all of my lengthy instructions for him to ensure she understood his quirks and felt confident going into his stay. She sent thorough updates with photos throughout his stay, and he honestly looked so calm, happy and at peace with her. Her love for dogs and attention to detail make her the perfect pet sitter. We will certainly be booking with Maria again!”

“Smokey seemed to enjoy his stay with Maria and Kalyan! In all the pictures he was smiling and the even brushed him for us (big job on a standard doodle)! Thank you for loving on our boy!”


“Yet another awesome experience with Ponyo. She’s super responsive, sends frequent updates and photos, and takes great care of our old dog. I love having her nearby! She’s so flexible with our dog’s needs as he ages.”

“Thuy and her family were absolutely wonderful with our 8-week-old kitten, Nova. From the start they treated Nova like part of their family — gentle, attentive, and full of affection. We received consistent, thoughtful updates while traveling, which put us completely at ease during our first time leaving Nova with anyone. Thuy showed genuine love and care, and we trust her and her boys fully. Thank you for the outstanding support and kindness — we will definitely book with Thuy again. Highly recommend Thuy and her family for you and your pet family. Thank you so much again.”

“Jessica was the perfect pup sitter for our little Carl! We received frequent updates and beautiful photos each day. Communication was quick, clear and timely, and pickup and drop off was super easy. We were so happy knowing Carl was having such a relaxing and enjoyable time with Jessica and we would highly recommend!”

This was Nali’s third time staying with Tomas and she looked like she had the best time with Huck and Karma. I love all the photos and updates. It always feels nice knowing your furbaby is in good hands when you leave town. She looked happy and comfy during her stay. Thank you!

Eileen was amazing with our little Charlie! This was our first time leaving her to travel since we lost her big brother last year, so we were anxious to leave her. Turns out we had nothing to worry about! She ate regularly thanks to Eileen taking time to make her comfortable and hand-feed her, and we received tonssss of photos and videos so we could see how well she was doing. By the end of our trip, we were a little worried she wouldn’t want to come home with how spoiled she was at Eileen’s house! 😂 1000/10 recommend, we will definitely be rebooking for our next trip!

Our older dog can be anxious when she's outside of her routine, but Jennie's calm demeanor helped her to feel comfortable. Jennie's home is also very relaxing and the neighborhood is perfect for walks throughout the day. We look forward to booking Jennie's services again soon!

Micaela was a wonderful sitter for our beloved Frenchie! Her daily updates and photos showed a very happy puppy enjoying walks and play, and her home was clean and very welcoming. I really appreciated her flexibility with a later pick up time due to a delayed flight. I would definitely recommend Micaela, and would be happy having Hugo stay with her again. Thanks!

Elvis had a great time with Matt over a long holiday weekend trip - I got plenty of photos and videos of him hanging out with other pups and getting as many rubs as possible. Thanks for taking such great care of Elvis while I was away and for the updates - it was a relief to know he was having a blast!

Nora is my go to Rover sitter! She is so good with Clover and I have complete peace of mind when she is sitting for me. She consistently sends updates with pictures and is a great communicator. Clover is genuinely and authentically happy and excited when I drop her off with Nora.
