“Jaynee was a great cat sitter! She looked after my cat Penny for a few days and sent super adorable updates everyday. I was happy to see how comfortable my cat was staying with her! She was also very communicative and flexible with everything and made the whole process very easy for me. Will definitely be booking with her again next time. :)”
2. Licco & Serhiy L.
“Licco was absolutely great at communicating with me to make sure drop off went smoothly. Serhiy was awesome in taking care of Bentley and sent lots of pictures. Bentley looked like he was super comfortable and I felt worryfree with them taking care of him. This was a great match and I appreciate how accommodating Licco and Serhiy were upon late notice! I would book again!”

“Rachel did a great job taking care of Sky! She sent me photos to show how Sky was doing and kept us informed of her well-being. We would definitely book her again next time we are in need of a pet sitter :)”
5. Yvette V.
“Book with Yvette!! This is our first puppy, our first time leaving him overnight, and he has a fractured limb in a cast, so we were very nervous to say the least. I read Yvette’s bio and her reviews, which are so accurate! An added plus is she lives close by us but I’d make the drive from anywhere knowing how well she cares for pets like they are her own. Our puppy needs to take it easy while his fracture heals and Yvette totally understood that. She immediately sent us texts, pictures and videos right after drop off assuring us he was doing well. Throughout the day to night and into the next day she provided many updates as well and we appreciated that so much! It is very obvious Yvette loves being a pet caregiver and is so dedicated to making sure your pet is having a good time and well taken care of. We are so glad we found her. Thank you Yvette!”
6. Annie C.
“I can’t express how grateful I am for the amazing care Annie provided for Ginger. From the moment I dropped her off, it was clear that Ginger was in the best hands. Annie treated her like one of their own, going above and beyond to make her feel at home. She sent me incredibly detailed updates three times a day, each filled with tons of photos and videos that really showed how happy and comfortable Ginger was. It was such a relief to see her smiling, playing, and cuddling like she was part of their family. The best part was how Ginger became fast friends with their dog, Juni. The two were inseparable, constantly engaging in playful wrestling matches and tugging sessions—it was like Ginger had found her perfect playmate! Annie made sure both dogs got plenty of exercise and fun together, and even shared moments of them napping side by side after all that playtime. It’s clear that Annie and Conan genuinely care about the pets they look after, not just meeting their needs but showering them with attention, affection, and love. Ginger received the same level of care and comfort she gets at home, and I couldn’t have asked for more. If you want someone who treats your dog like family and keeps you in the loop every step of the way, Annie is the best choice. Ginger and I are so thankful!”
7. DESIREE V.
“Our boxer, Ozzy, loves Desiree! From the moment we met, I knew Ozzy was in excellent hands. She has a natural way with animals and made my dog feel right at home. Ozzy back happy, well-exercised, and clearly loved. Desiree updated me with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter, look no further! She’s like family to me!”
8. Vy N.
“Vy is amazing and definitely recommended. She took care my girl for two weeks and I can enjoy my trip without any worry.

Thank you so much for well care of Haru and definitely will come back for next boarding.”

11. Ziwen P.
“My family and I are so thankful to have Zee pet sit Figgy. She was so attentive to his needs and we can tell that she genuinely loves caring for dogs. We appreciated her great communication skills giving us daily updates: pictures, and videos during his away time from us. I hope other folks in need of care for their dog(s) would be lucky enough to have Zee. We will definitely re-book with Zee again!”
12. Yang Y.
“Definitely recommend! My dog cooper loved staying with him. He takes cooper on many walks, plays with him and sends me so many photos/videos. Yang is just a caring and loving host. There’s nothing more satisfying when I’m on a business trip while seeing cooper so happy with the boarding family.”

“This is our first time using the app, and we had a few last minute changes. We saw previous reviews and decided to try Leah. Not only was she flexible and worked with us, but she was very kind and took great care of our little guy. The following day something else came up and once again she flexed to assist us. Thank you so much for helping us out and allowing us time to flex our plans in this vacation!”
20. Rosita S.
“Dubs really enjoyed his stay with Rosita! I can tell he was super comfortable from all the pictures and updates she consistently shared with us. Dubs is a senior and special needs pup and Rosita made sure all the information we provided and advised was well taken. She accepted our request on short notice for 4th of July with our biggest concerns for fireworks. Rosita made sure Dubs was comfy and safe when he was anxious. We highly recommend Rosita!”
