Christina did such an amazing job watching my cats, what a blessing! My cats immediately trusted her from the start. She provided so many updates and great photos! The cats received so much attention from Christina and I could tell they had a blast. I appreciate the great care from Christina and will absolutely book in the future!

Zilalai is a 5-star pet sitter! She took excellent care of my cats and my home. I appreciate that she read the instructions and kept the pets on their usual schedule. Zilalai was also very reliable. She went above and beyond by handling a blizzard and an unexpected plumbing issue with ease. She also left the house tidy. I am hoping Zilalai can come back to cat sit again during my next trip. With Zilalai on the job, I can truly relax and know the pets and house are in good hands. Thank you, Zilalai! 😻

Julia W. was great with our exuberant goldendoodle, Jake. She clearly loves animals, and has excellent experience with dog care and training. Jake was busy each day with multiple walks, playtime, and then some nice down time. Julia communicated well, sent us pictures, was very responsive. We knew that our dog was in great hands. Thank you so much!

Anastasia is great! She is communicative, trustworthy, and even brought in a package for me. We could see through photos that Mocha loved Anastasia’s company and we knew she was being really well taken care of while we were away.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I was blessed to have grown up with a Golden Retriever, Hugo, and a Shih Tzu, Lilla. Both of those dogs were my best friends and I made so many memories with them. My love for animals allows me to offer personalized, attentive care with a focus on safety, companionship, and fun. I have experience working with small and medium dogs and am very reliable/communicative. Before each appointment, I always make sure to check in with each owner to find out more information about what the dog's specific routine and schedule is like. I am also very compassionate about animals and treat each client like they are my own pet. Lastly, I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate any last minute changes. I am very fortunate to work remotely full time so my schedule is very flexible. I have plenty of time during the day to go on walks and give the pups all of the love and attention they deserve. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood that is surrounded by parks and green space. I also live on the third floor of a three family home that has an outdoor yard. Your dog will be very safe and well taken care of in my home.

Stacy was superb! We had a last minute need due to our flight getting cancelled and Stacy was very communicative and flexible during a moment of a lot of stress. My pups were very well taken care of and I got lots of pictures. My house was well taken care of as well. Would definitely book her again in the future.

Kelly was easily the best sitter I could have hoped for (any other anxious pet parents out there?). She was excellent with proactively communicating prior commitments, and kept in regular contact throughout the Meet & Greet process and duration of housesitting. Before the start of booking, she had already read through our care instructions and was detailed and generous with the photo and video updates. I've never seen our two (admittedly undersocialized) cats adapt to another person so well; anyone would be lucky to have Kelly as their sitter :). Thank you again, Kelly!!

Traci has great energy and will do everything in her power to make sure your pet is safe, comfortable and well taken care of. She is an exceptionally responsible, quick-learning sitter, and an excellent communicator. Plus, she seriously makes the best shortbread cookies I have EVER tasted. We will not hesitate to book her again!

About: Hello! I love animals so so very much and would never let harm befall them. I get "They're never this good around strangers!" a lot as well. I'm especially good with easily spooked pets I make and sell crystals and jewelry, so my schedule is flexible and I'm available during most "normal working hours" I'll have lots of time for your pets We have a fairly spacious apartment with a backyard for hosting, and if I'm petsitting at your house I'll follow your instructions to the letter

Maddie provided a safe loving environment for my little dog, Lucia! She also went beyond just taking care of her by sending me daily updates & photos- which made me very happy since this was the longest I'd ever been away from her. Maddie also helped out with moving cars due to some ongoing street work requiring them to be moved while I was away. Highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs!

After a long 10 vacation with some twists and turns, Traci was always communicative, accommodating and highly professional, not to mention just a lovely person. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. During our trip, our dog unexpectedly became sick with vomiting and diarrhea, and she remained calm, composed and compassionate, including middle-of-the-night potty breaks and keeping us informed throughout. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and tremendous peace of mind. We would absolutely trust her again and recommend her without hesitation.

Alex took great care of our Goldendoodle puppy, Charlie! He was very attentive to her schedule, our house training efforts, etc. It was also clear that he really loves dogs and shows them great affection. And he’s a great communicator — very responsive when we were trying to schedule this housesitting and also during the visit by sending pictures & videos.

Kurt took excellent care of my girl Scout while I was away for work. He was accommodating of my last-minute booking request, wonderfully communicative before and during the sitting, and gave Scout lots of love during the sitting. Kurt thoughtfully set-up a stroll with us in advance to meet and get acquainted with Scout and asked great questions to ensure she'd be comfortable while I was away. He also mindfully asked about and honored my communication and check-in preferences to ensure I didn't worry about Scout while juggling some busy days. I could tell Scout had a great time with Kurt given how relaxed and happy she was upon pick-up and a little sad to say goodbye to her new friend! I highly recommend Kurt to anyone looking for a dog sitter and will definitely be using his services again on my next trip away!
