Rosa was simply the best to work with. She provided constant updates and photos and gave us the best of care. I was going thru a loss in my family and Rosa gave me peace of mind knowing Shaka was being well taken care of. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend and would book again.

Paige was able to watch our pup last minute when he got a mild case of Kennel Cough and we had a trip planned. She gave us updates, administered meds, and gave Finn lots of snuggles. We are SO thankful for her, and 10000% would recommended her to anyone!

Allison is great! From the moment that I reached out to her to stay with Toby, she has been so professional and sweet. Toby warmed up to Allison pretty quickly and I could tell he was happy and well taken care of. I love that Allison sent me so many pictures of Toby while I was on my trip because I did miss him a lot! Toby and I would be happy to have Allison stay over again!

Sarah was an excellent dog and house sitter. We left for 10 days and felt completely comfortable and at ease with Sarah being with our two dogs. She provided regular updates, gave them snuggles, played with them and was great watering our plants while we were away to keep the house nice. Our dogs love her so it was a match made in heaven!

Mara is incredible! She was a fantastic sitter for my pup, bringing him on adventures and taking great care of him! She was so patient with my nervous boy, which end in him giving her all of the snuggles. Mara kept me updated with photos and end of the day updates that made me feel so comfortable even though I was so far away. I will definitely utilize Mara’s services again, and I strongly recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter :)

Sarah was able to fill in at the last moment when we had a sitter cancellation. Initial request, explanatory texts, and meeting our new pups all transpired within a couple of days. She was sensitive to our new dog’s uncertainties as they experienced a pet sitter for the first time at two months since their adoption. Sarah rose to the few challenges that came up while keeping us well informed with texts, photos and videos. And the dogs, even the skittish one, soon accepted her as one of their own.

This was the best sitting experience I could have asked for. Kristin is our primary and regular sitter, we do daily drop ins for Harley during the week and Harley adores her time with Kristin. It was a no brainer to ask her to in-house sit for Harley while I’m away for work. Kristin provides updates on Harley’s day with the best photos (seriously a dog photographer). She kept to Harley’s busy schedule, and even the neighbors have raved about how amazing Kristin is with Harley when they see her. All around amazing experience and I would absolutely do it all over again. I felt so comfortable and I know my puppy girl is in GREAT hands. Kristin leads with care and it shows in the way my puppy feels so happy and comfortable with her.

Crystal is absolutely fantastic! She recently took care of our home, dog, and cat, and we couldn’t be more impressed with her professionalism, reliability, and genuine care. Our dog, who can be a bit shy with new people, has buddied up to her. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind while I was away. Not only did she ensure our animals were happy, healthy, but she also went above and beyond to keep my house spotless and organized. It was such a relief to come home to a clean space and happy fur babies. Crystal is trustworthy, kind, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can depend on!

Meagan is truly the best dog sitter I could ask for. She’s my go-to sitter, and I trust her completely with both my dog and my home. Whenever I’m out of town and she’s staying at my place, I have total peace of mind knowing everything is handled. She’s incredibly responsible, communicative, and so loving with my dog—it’s obvious how much she genuinely cares. Being able to travel without any stress or worry is such a gift, and that’s entirely because of Meagan. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and amazing with pets, I genuinely cannot recommend her enough.

She sent tons of updates and pictures throughout our trip, which honestly made such a difference and let us fully relax knowing everyone was happy and cared for.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life, and I still light up every time I meet a new friend! At home, I share my apartment with my very vocal black cat, Pinot, and an equally vocal senior Aussie/Border Collie named Eve. Both animals love making new friends! I have a flexible schedule and can easily accommodate your pet’s needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, medication times, or just extra snuggles and play. My place or yours, I keep tails wagging and whiskers twitching. I follow routines, respect house rules, and make sure everyone gets love, play, and full bowls.

Crystal is incredible. I was worried about leaving our puppy at home while we went on vacation, but from the very start, Crystal put my mind at ease by sending me regular updates. By the time we got back, she had even taught him to sit, stay, shake, and lay down! Our dog LOVES hanging out with Crystal, and we love knowing he's in such excellent hands - I can't recommend her highly enough.

Tina was absolutely wonderful, and we're so grateful she took such great care of Bella while we were away. This was our first time leaving Bella, so we were definitely a little nervous, but Tina immediately put our minds at ease. She sent updates and photos throughout the stay, which meant so much to us. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a house that was absolutely spotless. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would happily book Tina again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring house and pet sitter!

Aleksandra is absolutely incredible. She is the dog whisperer. I am a passionate Pet Mom and my pets are my universe. Leaving them for 5 days with a stranger would typically terrify me, but this was the best trip I have ever taken because I knew my pets were safe with Aleksandra. I have never had a better experience with a pet sitter. She trained my 17 week-old puppy to have better manners than when I left, and I feel like I came home to a different dog!!! Additionally, my pets have significant health issues (frenchie with IVDD, for one) and she willingly accommodated all of their special needs without a second thought. Moreso, she left my home cleaner than how I left it. I came home to a spotless house with some calming music on the TV for the pets!!! She sent tons of pictures and updates multiple times per day and not once did I feel worried or anxious about the wellbeing of my beloved pets or my home. I am blown away by this experience, and she will forever be my first stop when I need a pet sitter. THANK YOU, ALEKSANDRA!!!!!!

Marci truly went above and beyond, while caring for our dog. She kept me super updated and sent lots of photos & videos. She brought Sadie everywhere with her and really kept us in the loop which put me so at ease. At one point she took her to brunch with a dog bed and got her special food. She dealt with my anxiety kindly. She even did our laundry and dishes which was over the top nice. Highly recommend! We’ll for sure be using her again!

Highly Recommend Allison! Allison took care of three dogs for us during a recent trip, including my sister's senior dog, who has significant separation anxiety and requires daily medication. From start to finish, she was attentive, communicative, and completely trustworthy. On the first day of our trip, one of the dogs (Dexter) got sick and had multiple accidents in the house. Allison handled it calmly and responsibly, managing his care and medication needs without ever making us feel like we needed to cut our trip short. She sent us daily updates with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When we got home, the house was spotless and all three dogs were happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It takes real skill and experience to juggle multiple dogs, including one with anxiety, medication needs, and an unexpected illness, and Allison managed it all with patience and professionalism. We fully trust Allison with our dogs and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, experienced, and caring pet sitter. She was a true life saver for me.

Halle puppy sat for us 2 days in a row. She’s amazing! What we appreciated: She’s very responsive, was always on time or early, and made sure she was clear about instructions and details. Jinx is 6mo old and has some training but is still very much a work in progress. Halle has been patient and kind and we will definitely book her again as needs arise.

Kelly was wonderful and we are so grateful we found her. She was quick to respond and available last minute, which we really appreciated. This was our first time leaving our dog, so it was incredibly stressful for us. Kelly did an amazing job taking care of our girl and helping us feel more comfortable while we were away. My husband and I both work from home, so our dog is used to having us around most of the day and is not used to being alone for long periods. Kelly made sure to adapt to our dog’s schedule, routine, and needs. She sent us pictures and videos, which really helped reassure us that our dog was doing well. Kelly was flexible, attentive, and very caring toward both our dog’s needs and our concerns as anxious pet parents. Seeing how well our dog did with her gave us so much peace of mind. We are very glad we found Kelly and would definitely ask her to take care of our girl again in the future.
