2. Ginny R.
“Peace of mind with Ginny taking care of my Pilaf. Ginny sent lots of pictures and he looked very relaxed. Thanks again!!”
3. Emma L.
“Emma did a wonderful job caring for my dogs at my house. My dogs clearly loved her and she was very responsive and responsible. Will absolutely use her as a sitter again.”
4. Amy A.
“Amy was absolutely amazing. She stayed with my two dogs for a week in my home. My dogs are wary of strangers and can be a bit finicky as a result (extra chatty, Velcro-dog syndrome at times), and Amy took it all in stride. She was a good communicator that provided regular updates, and my dogs were very obviously happy with her being there. Will absolutely book Amy again!”
5. Devin C.
“Devin was great! I came back to a very happy and healthy puppy. They were very communicative, easy to work with and provided lots of updates while watching my dog. I would not hesitate to hire Devin again.”
6. Maddy H.
“Maddy did a great job sitting my cat when I went on vacation for 9 days. She sent daily updates and pictures while I was traveling and left the apartment very clean. She watered my plants and took in my mail, and it was a very positive experience, so I would recommend her.”
7. Eryn-Ashlei B.
“We loved Eryn as a dog and house sitter and will most certainly reach out to her again. She was a great communicator from start to finish. Our dog, a young, energetic and playful girl, loved Eryn too. She was clearly having a great time during the week that they spent together. Eryn sent photos and kept us up to date each day that we were out of town. She is capable, friendly and very responsible. A truly wonderful sitter!”
8. Anthony E.
“Tony did a great job with our pup, was a clear communicator, and left our place clean at the end of his visit - we'd be very happy to have him come back!”
9. Aubrey E.
“Aubrey was great! She saved me when I needed someone last minute. My dog was super happy and got plenty of exercise, and the apartment was left better than I found it. Will use again!”
10. Rachael B.
“We had Rachael house sit and stay with our dog for a weekend while my husband and I were out of town. Rachael took great care of Pepper and our house was in great shape when we got home! Will definitely book the next time we need a sitter. Thanks Rachael!”
11. Zoë F.
“Zoë was wonderful looking after my dog Georgia for the day. Georgia can have some anxiety around new people but Zoë was great and Georgia warmed to her quickly. After a short meet and greet earlier in the week, Georgia was excited to see Zoë when she arrived for the stay.”
12. Paige S.
“Paige was amazing! She met us at our hotel in Bethesda and stayed with our puppy for over 7 hours so that we could attend a wedding nearby. She sent photos throughout that time to let us know how he was doing and took him on multiple walks. Our little pupper had a great time!”
13. Charles C.
“I first had Charlie watch my 2 cats and dog when he was 12. He has a real way with animals, he was always rescuing hurt animals and took good care of all the pets he's had over the years, he's had a lizard for 10 years I believe. Charlie is my nephew and he's going to school for animal science in the spring, I trust him with my pets and I think he'd be up to any challenge or needs your pets have.”
14. Brigida L.
“Brigida housesat and watched our two mini dachshunds for a long weekend. She sent pictures and updates, and our dogs were happy and well cared for! Brigida is impressive - clearly responsible and we were extremely confident that our dogs were in great hands from our meeting. Highly recommended!”
15. Stephanie C.
“It was wonderful to have Stephanie watch our pets. I could tell from our meet and greet that she would be great with them and she was. She provided updates and daily photos and we could relax on our trip knowing she was there.”
16. Matisse N.
“Reliable and trustworthy. I'm so happy I found Matisse on here. She was a lifesaver when I needed someone to stop in and take my dog out. I knew I could always count on her and she really took the stress out of a stressful situation.”
17. Isabel C.
“Isabel was great! Not at all fussed about taking care of our 4 month old puppy who had just arrived to his offseason home and was “confused”. Isabel was on time, kind and dependable.”
18. Mia O.
“Mia is a fantastic pet sitter! She is responsible, caring, and has a genuine love for animals. My pets absolutely adore her, and I always feel at ease knowing they are in her hands. Mia goes above and beyond to ensure that pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”
19. Bronte F.
“Bronte was a fantastic dog sitter! She was extremely kind and I could tell how much she loved dogs. I received tons of pictures and updates of my pup while she watched him which I appreciated. I would 100% recommend Bronte as a dog sitter and will look into using her services again :)”
20. Julia B.
“Julia was great! she agreed to a meet-up before the sitting so she could meet my pups. She communicated questions in a timely way and was sure she knew the care routines for Cobb and Tara. She sent updates throughout her visit. The pups were clearly comfortable with her and were happy when we got home. We were able to enjoy a carefree day off! We would highly recommend Julia!”
