1. Emma Z.
“Emma was communicative throughout her stay with my cat, and she sent lots of pictures and updates so I knew he was getting all the love and attention he needed! Thanks so much Emma!”
2. Sabrina S.
“Sabrina was very communicative, flexible, and okay with my cat’s specific needs. The apartment was clean when I got back and my cat seemed well cared for. Would definitely book her again!”
3. Ginny R.
“Peace of mind with Ginny taking care of my Pilaf. Ginny sent lots of pictures and he looked very relaxed. Thanks again!!”
4. Sevtap D.
“Sevtap is the perfect dog-sitter. Our two pugs are shy with new people and VERY attached to us. When we arrived home after Sevtap’s stay with them, they tried to prevent her from leaving! That’s about as gold-star a review as a dog owner can hope for. It is so wonderful to come home to really happy dogs. Plus the house is immaculate — looks better than we left it! Amazing dog sitter. Just amazing.”
5. Emma L.
“Emma was great! She was very communicative (and quick to respond) and followed all my instructions. I can tell my pup had a great time with her and i will definitely add her into my rotation of sitters”
6. Stephanie N.
“Stephanie is one of my dog's favorite people. When she visits, he climbs up on the cushions of where ever she's sitting and goes to sleep wrapped around her neck, something he only does with me. It is hard to get him to leave me to go for a walk, but he willingly goes with Stephanie. He knows he is in good hands with her.”
7. Junior V.
“Growing up, I’ve always had several dogs at home and would take care of them myself, but being an adult now and working in the film industry, I don’t have as much time anymore. When I’m away, I trust Junior to take care of Mike, a hyperactive Dalmatian that never seems to enjoy resting. We’ve been friends for a few years now and I entirely trust him.”
8. Amy A.
“Amy was absolutely amazing. She stayed with my two dogs for a week in my home. My dogs are wary of strangers and can be a bit finicky as a result (extra chatty, Velcro-dog syndrome at times), and Amy took it all in stride. She was a good communicator that provided regular updates, and my dogs were very obviously happy with her being there. Will absolutely book Amy again!”
9. Paul R.
“Paul did a great job caring for my dog and communicating while I was out of town. Having a large dog finding proper care has always been a concern, but with Paul there was no reason to worry! He provided regular updates, was responsive at all times of the booking, and took great care of my dog. 10/10!”
10. Zoë F.
“Zoë was wonderful looking after my dog Georgia for the day. Georgia can have some anxiety around new people but Zoë was great and Georgia warmed to her quickly. After a short meet and greet earlier in the week, Georgia was excited to see Zoë when she arrived for the stay.”
11. Andey D.
“Andey was a such a great house sitter for Beanie! She was so caring and patient for our 13 week old puppy which can be a very demanding schedule at times. We very much appreciate her openness to just going with the flow for the weekend and helping to continue with the puppy training (and then some!). We will definitely keep Andey on our short list for the future.”
12. Megan P.
“We had a great experience with Megan dog sitting in our home. She came over for a meet and greet before the stay and navigated a logistically complicated situation where we had to split the stay between two sitters. Our pup Brodie took to Megan right away. She was able to administer medication to Brodie and sent us wonderful updates all weekend. She even went above and beyond to wash and fold our bedsheets! We’d love to have Megan back to watch Brodie.”
13. Hana C.
“Hana was awesome with a last minute request to watch Nova! She was prompt and communicative with timing and sent pictures and updates! I could tell nova was in great hands and look forward to booking with her again”
14. Lauren B.
“Lauren was great with our girl Burty! She stayed with her for a weekend while we were away and took such good care of her. Lauren sent us lots of updates with pictures and videos. We would definitely use her again!”
15. Josh H.
“Josh was quick to respond, easy going, flexible to our changing schedule, super nice, and kindly sent us photos as updates. Great sitter, would recommend.”
16. Emily E.
“Emily was INCREDIBLE with my dog Mabel while I was gone for a weekend for a wedding. She stayed in my home, took such good care of my dog and my house, was so prompt with updates & pics, and then went above and beyond and left me a super detailed note about their time together & how much she loved her!! Truly haven’t had a dog sitter make me feel so comfortable leaving my girl with someone (crazy dog mom, hi!). Will 10/10 rebook Emily ◡̈”
17. Kathryn H.
“Kathryn did a great job house sitting and taking care of my dog Parsley. She sent me plenty of messages with photos. Parsley really liked her and her dog Tony. There were lots of walks and trips to the dogpark. I would definitely recommend Kathryn to others.”
18. Meaghan L.
“Meaghan has watched my puppy, Buck a few times now while I travel and she is great! Very reliable, responsible and considerate! I feel super comfortable leaving my guy with her and highly recommend booking with her!”
19. Shane D.
“Shane watched our elderly English Bulldog for two weeks and was great. He was very responsive and made sure our dog had everything she needed. I would highly recommend Shane if you’re looking for someone to watch you dog.”
20. Chloe G.
“Chloe is amazing! She literally treats my dog as if he were her own. She is conscientious, dependable, and she cares so much for animals. I always feel good knowing she is taking care of my dog.”
