“Nicole just doesn’t hug, snuggle and care for our furry ones, she watches the house and is attentive to all facets of our home and property. Izzy already misses her! BooBoo nonplused😀”
“We had the pleasure of having Renee take care of our dog, Rufus, while we were away in Europe for 12 days, and we couldn't be more thrilled with her care! From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease knowing she would take care of Rufus like he was her own. Throughout the 12 days, Renee kept us updated with photos and messages, so we always knew Rufus was happy and well-loved. She gave him plenty of cuddles and attention, which we could tell made him feel at home and content in our absence. Not only did Renee provide amazing care for Rufus, but she also went above and beyond in tidying up our house and even took care of our plants—something we truly appreciated! It’s the little things that make a big difference, and she certainly took care of everything with kindness and attention to detail. We highly recommend Renee to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful dog sitter. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our furry friend!”
“Ariel was wonderful from beginning at Meet & Greet to our return. Great communication, fantastic pictures. Lexi, Luna, Leia & Theta are healthy & happy - and our home is very clean! Our quick trip out of town was seamless & worry free. Highly recommend!”
“Gabrielle was great! They inspires confidence immediately with their warm and courteous demeanor. Betty took to Gabrielle immediately. Gabrielle was a great communicator who kept us well updated. I would be lucky to have Gabrielle come back again!”
“Mya house sat for us over the holidays and was the perfect caretaker of the house and the 2 dogs. She sent lots of photos, communicated promptly and left the house in great condition. Our mini-Dachshund is a bit of a handful, but she did great with her. And, our suspicious older Corgi even warmed up to her. Thank you, Mya!”
“Caroline is the best! This was our first time having Caroline stay with our pets while we were traveling, and she made us feel like they were in such good hands from the start. We have a reactive dog, so finding a sitter we trust is super important for us. Caroline was so patient with our dog, and she took the time to learn her triggers and comfort her when she was anxious. She followed our instructions closely and was very attentive. We got tons of updates and photos during our trip, which we loved. We will definitely have Caroline take care of our girls again!”
“Daniel was great! Short notice availability. He was very accommodating with some minor last minute requests, and also when our relatives had to drop by a few times. Consistently sent (VERY adorable!) photos with a brief note/comment every day while we were on vacation. Was good about being communicative and responding to any questions as needed. House was left pretty clean when we came back. Highly recommend!!”
“Julia took wonderful care of my energetic cat while I was away. I could tell Clover had lots of playtime and attention and was happy and calm when I returned. Julia was super responsive throughout and provided lots of photos. Would definitely book her again!”
“Vanessa was amazing! She took great care of our little guy. She made sure he was comfortable and safe at all times. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Christina was amazing! She was attentive and helpful from the very first contact. She was sweet with my dogs, sent photos, and took perfect care of them. We hope to count on her care again in the future. Thank you, Christina!”
“Gus took to Jennifer immediately upon meeting her! She has been a phenomenal walker and overnight sitter. She is a great communicator, takes excellent pictures, and treats Gus like her own. Gus is an older pup and has some medical issues. He requires medication twice a day and needs to be carried up and downstairs. Jennifer has done an amazing job taking all of his needs into consideration and he is clearly so happy everytime he spends time with her. I highly recommend Jennifer and would give more than 5 stars if I could.”
“Addie was amazing watching my kitties! She was very communicative including lots of pictures and videos which I loved! Also very responsive and easy to plan with. The cats were well taken care of and loved and even my plants got some love too!”
“Pam did a great job staying at my house with my 4-yr-old miniature poodle while I was away. I could tell when I got back that he had a really fun time with her, and he had been super well cared for. She sent lots of adorable photos, too. I would definitely hire her again!”
“Shereen was outstanding! She was sitting for our high-energy pup and elderly cat in our home for the weekend. She is incredibly compassionate, smart, and responsible. We received numerous updates which made us so happy that our pets were having such a good time! They were in great hands, and our house was, too. Having her stay in our house and take care of them allowed us to relax when we were across the country - truly a gift. Highly recommend Shereen!”
“Zoe was amazing with my dog, Sadie! She kept me updated throughout the day, and sent me pictures of Sadie and her having a great time together. It’s always difficult leaving your pet, but I was happy to know that she was in great hands. I will definitely be using Zoe’s services again in the future!”
“She exceeded my expectations. She was very careful and affectionate with my cat, and throughout the time, I received videos and photos in which the kitty looked very comfortable and happy. It is clear that she loves animals and knows exactly how to take care of them and make them feel comfortable and safe. She is very organized and responsible. In my case, she took care of my pet for eight consecutive days, and when I arrived, everything was perfect. I highly recommend her 100%.”
“We had Kylee stay at our house to take care of our two puppies on the weekend. She is very conscientious in her duties and responded to an issue by asking the on call vet for advice. We were extremely happy with her care.”
“Aly did an overnight with our pup and was great. She is a fabulous communicator and is very responsible. Our dog was having tummy problems when we left him so we had to change up some of his food and she jumped right in and helped make things super easy!”
