1. Devon E.
“Devon was awesome! She updated us regularly with texts and pictures and left our house spotless upon returning. Our dogs were very happy when we got home, we will definitely be rebooking.”
2. Ginny R.
“Ginny was an amazing sitter for my cranky elderly Dachshund! She even got her to take her meds without spitting out the pill and eating only the pill pocket :). We look forward to having her sit for Edie again.”
3. Mary B.
“Mary did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs and apartment while we were out of town! She was very communicative and stayed on top of the details. Our two dogs clearly bonded with her. We are planning to book with her again for our next trip!”
4. 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.”
5. Andrew T.
“Andrew was a fantastic sitter while we were away! He took amazing care of our 17 yr old husky. Was extremely accommodating and responsive. Would absolutely recommend and book again.”
6. Tam N.
“Tam is the BEST! This is our second time using Tam when we’ve traveled out of state. My elderly chihuahua has a tooth issue and I was worried about leaving her but Tam was so attentive and truly put my worries at ease. She gives lots of detailed updates, sends pictures and asks a lot of questions which shows she cares. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter for my babies! Thank you, Tam!”
7. Paul R.
“Paul did a great job caring for my dog and communicating while I was out of town. Having a large dog finding proper care has always been a concern, but with Paul there was no reason to worry! He provided regular updates, was responsive at all times of the booking, and took great care of my dog. 10/10!”
8. Sabrina S.
“Sabrina was very kind and patient with Aelin. I will book her once we’re ready to try babysitting at our place again. Would recommend Sabrina to others :)”
9. Stacy B.
“Stacy did amazing with our dog Ellie! We would 100% hire her again. She really went above and beyond.”
10. Matthijs D.
“Matt took great care of my cats and my place. He sent me lots of pictures too! Highly recommend!”
11. Miliana N.
“Miliana is our go-to sitter for our pup. Another excellent experience! It’s great coming home to a safe, happy, well cared for pet after a trip.”
12. Kelcee G.
“Highly recommend! We can’t thank Kelcee enough for her compassion and patience with our 2 year old German Shepherd. We were out of the state and Kelcee was home with our dog when the fire alarms broke and went off continuously. This caused severe anxiety and some aggression with our dog which Kelcee handled with communication and understanding. She even dealt with the fire department when they came to address the alarms. We felt comfort and reassurance knowing Kelcee was there and we will definitely be using her care in the future.”
13. Shane D.
“Shane watched our elderly English Bulldog for two weeks and was great. He was very responsive and made sure our dog had everything she needed. I would highly recommend Shane if you’re looking for someone to watch you dog.”
14. Ava K.
“Ava provided Smokey the care she needed. Ava also cleaned the apartment before she left which was greatly appreciated. Thank you for watching Smokey last minute.”
15. Sunisa T.
“Sunny took amazing care of Tater while we were out of town! Sent lots of pictures (amazing ones!) and checked in with us often. Sunny even left us a framed picture of Tater. She is fantastic!”

“Victoria had immediate chemistry with our pup and is very communicative!”
17. Leah C.
“Leah was great with Coco during house sitting. She sent regular updates, made sure that Coco has his usual sleep- wake and eating schedule. I would definitely recommend using her services for your pet. Thanks Leah!!”
18. Sydney D.
“Loved having Sydney over to watch my pup on a house-sitting visit overnight! We met beforehand on a meet & greet to show her around & get my pup comfy with her. It was very easy to communicate with Sydney — she is respectful, responds timely, and overall is a nice sitter & person! I felt comfortable with her in my home and with my pup in her care. 🥰 Highly recommend Sydney to others.”
19. Caleigh I.
“Caleigh was great watching Barkley while we were away! She provided thorough updates, pictures, and provided our pup with lots of love and care. Thank you Caleigh!”
20. Andrew C.
“Before using Andrew, we had a few different pet sitters that we really weren't thrilled about. Andrew was a welcomed change from those and will be our first choice the next time we need a sitter. He was great with our dog and cat, gave us frequent updates, and was very responsive. We know our pup got plenty of exercise and company while we were gone.”
