“I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.”

“Cathryn was an excellent sitter for our two dogs. She took very good care of them -- meals, treats and dog walking. There was plenty of snuggle time, too. She left an immaculate house. We will definitely ask Cathryn to sit for us again. Fortunate to have her! Thanks Cathryn!”

“I am almost afraid to leave a review for fear that I will not be able to book Robyn and Steve in the future. They were fantastic! I felt very comfortable having them stay in the house sitting my 2 dogs. They provided updates and posted concerns that may have come up with fireworks. Even my dogs were completely good with them. Usually they don't eat when we are gone but they were fine with Robyn and Steve. Can't recommend them enough! Truly are great with animals and as a bonus, the house was clean upon our return after 2 weeks. Your babies will be in great hands if you use them!!!!!”

“Nick and Melissa are excellent sitters! They watched our dog and cat while we were gone for the holidays. They provided regular updates and pictures, great communication, and are fair on pricing. I highly recommend and we will use them again! 😊”

“Cindy was amazing with our pup! I was nervous leaving him with a new person as I have never done so before and she completely eliminated my worries. She sent regular updates on how he was doing with pictures. It helped that she was able to stay at our place too so he could be home where he is most comfortable. Will definitely book her again for future needs and recommend!! 🩵”

“Scott took great care of D-Lo and Millie Mae during a long vaca out of the country, including treating a hot spot for one of them and keeping the house in great condition as well. He’s super attentive and punctual, and the dogs love his stays.”

“Maverick was great! He was everything we needed in a puppy sitter. He was communicative and polite and the house was in great shape when we returned. 10/10 would use again!!!”

“Teresa was absolutely fabulous!! From the first meeting our two dogs and our senior cat adored her and were completely at ease. It made our trip away so much more fun because we didn't worry about our fur kids. Teresa sent us pictures several times a day and kept me updated on me dosages. She also noticed strange behavior from our cat that will warrant a vet visit so I'm very thankful for that! Teresa even cleaned up and washed the sheets and remade the bed! We will definitely book Teresa next time we need a sitter and I hope she'll be available!!! Don't hesitate to contact her for your pet sitting, she is outstanding!”
“Jeweliana and Riley were amazing. We got updates, thoughtful questions and check ins on arrival time back home to ensure the pets were not left alone for too long. They took great care of our house and I felt so much peace of mind having them at my home while I was away.”

About: I have watched animals of all kinds since I was a child including squirrels, ducks, cats, dogs, fish, turtles, and hamsters. I have been a dog owner of a variety of breeds since I was born. I love going on walks with my pup, and lots of snuggles! As a dog mom myself the pets health and wellbeing are my number one priority! I am a preschool teacher who works Monday through Thursdays from 9 to 1-2:30. I’m an early riser so I’m up early taking care of my dogs and cats before I go into work. The first thing I do when I get home is take my dog on a long walk. The rest of the evening I usually spend at home with my loved ones unless I’ve have other plans! The well-being safety and health of my pets are always my number one priority. I don’t have kids of my own yet, so I treat them like they’re mine. Both my pup and my kittens get two healthy portions of meals a day, daily attention, and lots of exercise.

“Fantastic temperament! My female poodle was not used to a housesitter and decided to spend the first day and a half barking and Johana handled it well. Would HIGHLY recommend her!”

“This is the second time I've used Hannah for a full week House and Dog sit, and would gladly call on her again. This trip even had a slight issue: (groomer cut dog right before our trip) and Hannah had to deal with my Winn licking the wound, and a small bloody cut. Hannah communicated the issue well and patched him up fine. She also leaves the house exactly as she enters it, leaving it as clean, if not cleaner, than it was left to her. I highly recommend for any service. I've also had one of my neighbors call on her and they were just as happy.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young and currently in school to become a professional dog trainer. I currently own a large dog myself but I have had every size dog and multiple breeds I currently have a full time job mon through Fri but I am able to check in through out the day and weekends are always available. A lot of stimulant, playing, walking, maybe some new tricks! No dog just wants to be bored all day so I make sure they’re entertained throughout my time with them
“Kristie looked after out pit-mix and cat for a weekend and was fantastic. She was gracious and asked great questions during our initial meet and greet. She gave us updates and pics throughout the weekend. She was such a calm presence for our animals while we were away. Our home was clean and looked great, when we returned. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Kristie!”

“Where to even start? If you were thinking of booking Scarlett do so right now because she is the BEST thing to ever happen to us when it comes to someone caring for our babies when we’re gone. She’s so accommodating, empathetic, caring and sweet. She treats not just the animals but the owners like family as well. I don’t think there are enough letters in the alphabet for me to string together the perfect words to describe her. We have found our go-to person for any trips we do on and are so grateful for her. She has become not only our pet sitter but our friend as well and our fur babies love her. Best Rover sitter ever!”

“Katie is always awesome! She is very communicative and always updates us! Bullet loves her! Bullet has a few accidents when he is out of routine but Katie takes great care of him and the house! Bullet loves her and gets excited when we tell him Katie is coming to visit with him!”

“Morgan was great with our two senior dogs. She was very attentive and had no trouble giving meds (including eye drops). She sent lots of photos and updates. It’s really hard when you move to a new place to find someone to care for your pets and we are thankful to have found her!”

“Evan was excellent with our Maximus. He communicated well and spent the whole day with our pup a few days after Maximus was neutered and provided great care. Would highly recommend him!”

“Lauren is an exceptional sitter. She really understood the different needs of our dogs and was conscientious in every way. She was also very communicative and took great care of our home. We look forward to booking her again!”

Maverick was amazing with our two Shibas. He was super responsive, respectful of our property, and great with the boys. Our fur babies can be quirky and he followed all of our instructions. The boys were happy and healthy when we got home. I think he really treated them well and we will absolutely book with him if the need ever arises again!

Bayli was absolutely amazing watching our two dogs over the weekend! She was incredibly communicative and responsive the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She sent tons of pictures and updates, and it was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. She also took great care of our home and kept everything clean and in order, which we really appreciated coming back home to. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches and goes above and beyond to make sure both the pets and owners feel comfortable. We would 100% trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring dog sitter!

This was the second time Jess stayed over to watch our pup, and once again she was great. She was punctual, communicated promptly throughout, and confirmed details earlier in the week since the stay had been planned for about a month. She left our home exactly as she found it and sent photos that clearly showed our baby was happy and well cared for. Thanks again, Jess!
