Caroline is an outstanding sitter—professional, reliable and kind. She took careful care of our Max and showered him with affection. We received timely photos and video — evidence of what we saw when they met: Max loved Caroline. We absolutely will work with Caroline again!

Loved having Miguel over to dog-sit Missy. Very clear and prompt communication, punctual, frequent updates during the day, and a genuine interest in understanding Missy's routine and keeping her on it as if we were home ourselves. Open and friendly, it was easy to trust him at our home. Missy is not yet accustomed to being alone, and Miguel was very understanding when we explained. He even came prepared with food for the day so that he wouldn't have to leave her to step out! Would definitely book with Miguel again!

Kenine did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs in our home, one being a dramatic, senior husky who occasionally needs extra care. She communicated well and regularly about walks, bathroom times, and was able to give medication as needed. We were able to adjust our husky’s food based on Kenine’s communication and ordered more to be delivered. She also left the apartment in great condition and we are very happy with the experience overall.

This was our first time having Razan watch our cat, and she was fantastic! She is proactive, considerate, and highly communicative. I especially appreciated that she took the time to meet our cat beforehand to learn how to administer his asthma inhaler. While we were away, she was attentive to all his needs and sent daily photos and updates. We returned to a clean and tidy apartment. Thank you so much, Razan!

Mia and Peanut were in the best hands! DP is reliable, attentive, and truly pays attention to every detail when caring for them. He even makes sure they get their supplements without missing a beat. It’s clear he goes the extra mile, and my babies adore him. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind he gives!

Maria was an absolute lifesaver. She stepped in on very short notice to care for my dog, Rizzo, and handled everything flawlessly. She was comfortable administering his insulin, kept me updated throughout the morning, and sent pictures so I knew he was doing well. On top of that, she safely transported him to his next destination without any issues. It gave me huge peace of mind knowing Rizzo was in such capable and attentive hands. Maria was reliable, communicative, and clearly very experienced with dogs who have medical needs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.

Mint was a great sitter. He is extremely communicative and attentive. My dog is a senior Shiba and quite stubborn, Mint was able to manage everything fine despite this is the first time. His past day care experience definitely was helpful dealing with different types of dog personalities and situations. I will definitely be booking with Mint in the future.

This was our first time using Rover (or anyone but family to watch our dog) and it was for a last minute vacation. May fit in a meet and greet days before we were leaving and Boots took to her right away. While we were gone May kept us updated both via text and with adorable photos/videos of our pup, which put us at ease. She also took great care of our house.

I am so happy with Colin. And so is my cat Lucy. I was gone for eight days and I came back to a happy cat, a clean apartment and everything else was fine. It made my vacation, worry and stress free. I will use him again. He also sent me pictures almost every day. Thank you so much.

Pedro is amazing. We have two senior golden retrievers who are not as mobile, and Pedro did a great job taking care of them as well as our apartment! He was extremely communicative, took many photos and videos, followed our instructions on how to take care of our senior dogs, checked in with us often. Would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a responsible person to help caring for their dogs!!

May is terrific! I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. She is dependable, responsible, attentive, and incredibly caring, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. We especially appreciated the regular updates, photos, and thoughtful communication, which allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. It was obvious that our dog, Dante, received plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and individualized May is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter. We would gladly use her services again and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for outstanding care for their pets.

Danny was wonderful! He stayed at our place for 3 nights and watched two of my elderly (12-13 yo) little 9 lbs dogs. He was extremely professional and responsible - prompt with replies, followed up politely when I failed to respond in a timely fashion, and left the house in very good order. I highly recommend Danny and would absolutely seek him out again.

Anita took excellent care of my shy, skittish rescue dog. She made her feel safe, and they became friends. Anita was very concerned about her welfare, and very communicative with me. She sent messages, photos, and videos, and she asked questions when she was unsure. She was also considerate in her care for my apartment. I will ask her to dog sit again when I go away in the future.

Saifa is incredibly communicative and detail oriented. I have two reactive 1 year old dogs and they liked her immediately, which is rare for them. She carefully followed all instructions including separating their food and their walks to ensure they didn’t pull too much, and she sent photos every hour! I highly recommend her, she’s great with animals, reliable, and takes great care to do a wonderful job.

Robin was awesome! My Rummy takes a minute to come out of her shell, but she was in great hands for a week. Robin easily won her over and the communication was 10/10 – I received daily updates with photos and if there were any concerns, they were flagged. I’d recommend Robin for any feline sitting!
