1. eliza d.

“Great communicator and it was clear upon our return home that she had done a great job with our two dogs—neither of them a piece of cake! Eliza is like hiring piece of mind while you’re away. Will definitely ask her again!”


2. Stacey L.

“Stacey is absolutely the best - she took such good care of our dog!! We were nervous about leaving for a few days, but as it turned out we had no reason to be - she cared for him as if he were her own. We feel very fortunate to have found her.”


3. Neil R.

“Neil watched over our 2 pups on super last minute notice. So appreciative of that and he provided excellent care. He sent us updated pictures and videos and even took our pups on a nearby hike.. Neil is so kind and warm hearted. Got to meet him in advance and he welcomed us back home before he ended his sit. Our home was in great shape upon our arrival. Will be keeping in touch with Neil for future sits.”


4. Matilda B.

“It was wonderful to work with Matilda. We have fairly new adopted dogs who are still settling in (and struggle with any disruptions to their routine). Matilda was super patient and we are super grateful…”


5. Megan K.

“Megan was a great house sitter! Communicative, attentive and loving to our fur babies. We’re planning to book her again and would recommend her for anyone needing house sitting services.”


6. Maya N.

“Maya was amazing with our pups. We were in town with our 2 dogs. They are both used to being with us and get anxious when they are not. Maya is very knowledgeable and sweet and knew exactly how to handle them. She played a lot with our very active GSP. She is also very respectful and sends lots of pictures and updates. We booked her twice during our visit and will definitely book her again when we come back.”


7. Victoria M.

“Victoria is amazing! She was super flexible and willing to stay for longer when my flight got delayed! She gave Miles awesome walks and attention and kept me Posted on how he was doing, with pics!!”


8. Elizabeth B.

“Elizabeth was great! She came to the house to meet the animals before we left for vacation to make sure we felt comfortable. She’s a great communicator and we got multiple pictures updates everyday we were away!”


9. Jennifer L.

“Wow - Jennifer was amazing. I had a family emergency and had to find someone to stay with my two high maintenance, challenging dogs at the last minute. I hadn't left my dogs overnight for over a year, so I was really worried about leaving them. Jennifer was highly rated and responsive, and immediately after booking, she arranged a meet-and-greet. My dogs loved her right away, and I felt really comfortable leaving her in charge. While I was gone, she sent many pictures and updates, which allowed me to focus on my family as opposed to worrying about my dogs. When I returned home, they were happy and the house was perfect. I cannot say enough positive things about Jennifer...she's WONDERFUL!!!”


10. Lauren R.

“Lauren is a great pet sitter. She gives our dog so much attention and plenty of walks when we are away. She communicates well and is very considerate.”


11. Levon B.

“Levon is amazing! My boy Melvin is very skittish and inclined to be fearful of new men, but Levon put him at ease right away, and Melvin was licking his face and trying to climb on him within minutes of our first meeting! I’m blown away by how Levon immediately knew exactly how to handle and communicate with Melvin—my guy is definitely a tough case with major anxiety and leash reactivity (which means 62 lbs jerking at your arm when our passing-trigger protocol fails to keep him calm), and Levon is literally the one and only person I feel comfortable handing the leash to as of right now. I was finally able to take a three-day trip without Melvin over Thanksgiving because of Levon—I hadn’t been able to do that since adopting him because he’s such a handful and has some special needs—and I was actually able to enjoy myself without worrying about Melvin! For him it was just a great visit with his buddy who took him for awesome outings to walk and hike, and quality time at the house where he received lots of love and attention. Melvin and I are so grateful to have Levon as our go-to now for when I want to schedule trips, and also as someone who can bring him out on adventures for extra exercise and stimulation!”


12. Charlie S.

“Very last minute sitting with Charlie! Pup was very happy to hangout for a few hours and relax while at a wedding at Junebug! Highly recommend in the Asheville area!”


13. Susanna N.


“Susanna was very friendly, dependable and I was extremely comfortable leaving my pets in her care. She also gave me some good ideas and options to help with eating habits. My pets really seemed at ease and happy after my return from vacation :)”


14. Isabella M.

“Isabella has a great connection with my cats. They get close to her since the day they met her. She is very professional, responsable and communicative. I highly recommend her.”


15. Daniele M.

“Danielle was awesome with my furry family!!! She cared and loved them, maintained their routine, and kept the house very tidy! I also received pictures and updates - communication was great! We can't wait for her to come sit again and highly recommend!”


16. Hannah "Miles" V.

“Miles is an amazing and reliable dog and housesitter. She was in touch with pictures and updates, and left everything in order and clean, with a nice note! We couldn't ask for more!”


17. Suzanne T.

“Suzanne stayed in my house for about a week, and took full charge of our two big old shepherd mixes. If I had to think of one little thing that I would have, had Suzanne do differently, I wouldn’t be able to. She was self-sufficient, communicative, dedicated to the well-being and fun of both dogs, observant, and incredibly confident in her quiet unintrusive way. She has moved an hour north of the Asheville area, but if I could clone her, I absolutely would.”


18. Mairead H.

“Mairead did such a great job sitting for our two dogs. She spent a lot of time with them, took them on long walks, and was really sweet and caring when one got sick. One of our dogs is a rescue and has some aggressive tendencies but Mairead took care to understand his triggers and was comfortable dealing with those. I would definitely recommend her to care for your pets!”


19. Haley S.


“We felt so comfortable leaving our pup with Haley for the weekend. She is thoughtful and communicative; we definitely hope to have Haley stay with Cooper again in the future!”


20. Sara O.

“It's so great to be able to leave my pups and know that they're going to be in good hands while I'm gone! Sara shone at text communication and I felt secure with her in my house. Thanks Sara!”
