“We are beyond happy with how Amy took care of our three boisterous canines. The minute she walked in for our meet-and-greet she sat down in the kitchen and had them all competing for her lap. If you can get Amy to take care of your pups, GET HER (she did live-in housesitting for us). She sent daily updates and photos. If there was any situation where she was not sure of our needs, she dashed of a quick text for clarification. Amy also understands that you're sometimes beat when you return home, and she pulled all of her linens for us. The house and kitchen were nice and tidy, and we were greeted with smiling faces and wagging tails. We were so happy that we immediately booked her for a trip we had coming up in six weeks.”
“First time having Maya sit for me and I will definitely be calling on her again. One of my dogs had an episode and she was quick to let me know what was going on. She even made the phone call to the vet to tell them what happened to see if he needed to be brought in. The situation was stressful for me being out of the country, but I felt so much better with her there keeping an eye on my boy.”
“Mozali was an amazing sitter! I loved the updates she sent everyday and she was a great communicator before and during the house sitting. She was willing to help out with other things as well, which I really appreciated. Luther loved having her with him. I will book with her again!”
“This is our 2nd time having Macie watch our dogs. She did great both times! Sends pics and is active the with our pups/keeps them entertained. Always shows up and is reliable.”

“This was my first time having a sitter for my dog. I was stressed but Nita was amazing! She always communicated and made me comfortable with her staying with Boston. If you are hesitant just know she is going to treat your pet like they are her own. I cannot thank her enough!”
“Jada was exceptional with our fur baby!!! She kept us up to date everyday and also FaceTime us daily so we could see our sweet boy Doobie. We will definitely book her again!!!”
“Amber is great! Our dog needs someone who wants to play and be active. She also helped us with a few other things we needed. We will be using her to dog sit again.”
“We had a great experience with Chanel! She was quick to respond, and took great care of our fur baby and house while we were away. We appreciated all of the pictures and videos she sent. She went above and beyond and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Avery is amazing, she was there promplty when we needed her, everyday she was very communicative keeping me updated on Bruno’s day. She was hands down one of the best dog sitters we had. I look forward to working with Avery again real soon. 10/10 Would recommend”

“Rex did an amazing job watching our home and pups. Our pups don't get along so it's tough for us to find someone willing to take on that responsibility. She made sure our dogs were safe and had plenty of attention. Our house was also taken care and clean. We highly recommend Rex and will be contacting her for future trips.”
“Corrina and Lucy bonded quickly which is amazing because being a rescue, she is always “on guard”. We felt very comfortable leaving our home and our fur baby in Corinna’s care! We will be requesting her services again!”
