Savannah is SO RELIABLE!! While I try to be respectful as possible and give her plenty of notice, I had a bit of an emergency and asked her the night before if she could take care of my dog and room mates cats and she totally came through for me. She's truly a blessing and such a good sitter. I want to leave her good reviews because she does such a great job but I also want to keep her all to myself (laughing out loud lolol) because she's such a gem! Also in addition to the thank you card and pictures, she also made the fur babies Christmas ornaments!!! Love her <3

Nyah was absolutely wonderful with our baby. She stayed in our home and left everything in impeccable condition. She was communicative and very accommodating when our travel back home was delayed by the airline. She spent extra time with Zuri so that we didn't have to worry about her as we were trying to figure out how to get home sooner. I would recommend her to anyone in need of someone kind, considerate and great with animals. Will definitely book with Nyah again.

There are dog sitters who need extra cash and dog lovers who sit because they need more dogs in their life. Elise is an absolute dog lover. A situation came up where we had a chat about pricing and her response was, "It's not only about the money for me." This spoke VOLUMES and it made me want to hire her over and over again. As my Arabella is like a child to me, knowing she is being loved just as if I were there means the world to me. I highly recommend Elise's services for your Pup!

Kattie was incredible! We had a last minute family emergency and she came to help. My dogs have absolutely loved her. I have several special needs dogs with meds needed. She was comfortable and great with administering them. We got daily pictures which helped out our minds at ease. If you need a great person that goes above and beyond for your pups this is your lady. Thanks again Kattie.

Emily sat for me while I was on shift overnight and I think she did a great job! One of my kiddos needs help walking and she followed directions on how to help him when he needed it and stayed on contact with me throughout the visit. She even came back for a lunch time visit just to check on my babies which I really appreciated.

Cayla house sat for me while I was away for the weekend. My dog is really anxious and generally scared of people, but she handled him perfectly and he was in a good mood when I returned. She is trustworthy and I would recommend her for anyone that needs their pets watched after.

Alex is one of the most caring and responsible pet owners there is. I’ve seen the way he cared for his dog before his unfortunate passing, and it is the same way anyone would want their pet to be loved. I have two cats myself and Alex has taken great care of them when I’ve been out of town. He did much more than what was asked of him and spent quality time giving them love and affection. There is no one I’d rather have take care of my pets than him.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Tina for many years, and her deep love for animals has always been a defining part of who she is. Growing up in a home filled with pets—both dogs and cats—she developed a special bond with animals early on. Now, she and her husband share their home with two incredible dogs, a German Shepherd and a Husky. Tina’s compassion, patience, and genuine care for her pets are truly heartwarming. She is an exceptional pet owner and advocate for animal care.
