“Skyler was a great pet sitter and house guest! She watched my two cats for a week. She shared a lot of updates and pictures the whole time. My cats were very happy and unbothered when I came home. I’ll definitely use Skyler again for future trips!”

“We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Lea. From the moment she stepped into our home, we knew our dogs were in caring and capable hands. Our energetic puppy and sweet older dog both instantly took to her, and it was clear they felt safe, loved, and genuinely happy in her care. Lea didn’t just meet our expectations — she far exceeded them. Her communication was thoughtful and consistent, keeping us updated with messages and photos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, we came home to a house that was even cleaner than we left it, which speaks volumes about her attention to detail and respect for our space. She stepped in during a last-minute situation and handled everything with such calm, kindness, and professionalism. It’s rare to find someone so trustworthy and compassionate, and we are beyond grateful. I truly couldn’t recommend a better person to care for both your pets and your home.”

Our husky is a bit difficult and definitely gets upset when we leave him, but Aarti made friends with him and even managed to brush him! We would not hesitate to book her again!”

“My dogs and I loved having Lauren stay with them. She is observant and trustworthy. I can tell how they connect with her that they felt at home with her. My 2 large dogs are high energy and talkative. They have been difficult to manage for friends and family in the past. Lauren was able to communicate with them and set firm boundaries. I really appreciated having her stay, spend time with them, and know they were safe and loved with her.”

“Hoss is amazing!!! They were available on unreasonably short notice when the original sitter I had booked randomly disappeared. Our dogs were obsessed with Hoss from the first moment, and I have no doubt our precious ones felt safe and cared for the entire time. On top of looking after two finicky pups (one is elderly and requires medication, one is shy and stubborn, and they are both bratty), they took great care of our home and made sure to send us updates, even going out of their way to hand feed our little girl her kibbles when she went on hunger strike because of our absence. Hoss is attentive and understanding, a true animal lover. And to top it all off they have a great personality, radiating kindness and fun energy. We would be lucky to have them sit for us again. 10/10 highly recommend.”

“Brigit was excellent. Went out of her way to come meet my dogs first before the in house sitting. She was on time and took great care of my boys. I came home to a clean house and happy dogs. One of my dogs had just dislocated his shoulder too and and I felt even more comfortable knowing with her experience and current schooling my boy would be in good hands and she would know what to do if an emergency came up.”

She gave her plenty of attention and activity and left the house in perfect condition. We feel so relieved to have found Sheri!

“Stasia was the best. I’ve been trying to find someone to look after my girl Luna while I was away for a few months now & no one has been as great as she has with my Luna! She was great with communication, sending pictures & video updates to show me Luna was happy & safe. I felt at ease having her in my home & watching Luna, I really couldn’t have asked for better. If you need someone reliable & who will ease your worries about leaving your pets and home, Stasia is who you’re looking for!”

About: I go by Seven, I was born on a farm, I’ve worked with animals of the farm variety and of course, cats, dogs, and many more sense I was young. Volunteered at animal shelter, vets office, and farm animal facilities. I’m currently a UNM student so all my babies are at home but I plan to have my ESA Rosy join me soon, so I don’t see animals often outside of meeting fellow students pets. I have spent most of my years growing up with and around animals and have a lot of love and experience with them! I have classes m/w/f from 10am-3/1pm but other than that I’m free for any kind of help! I make sure to ask what rules or regulations have to be followed for both pet, home, and routine. I never wanna stress a pet out or an owner so I love to send photos and updates the whole time I’m there as well as make sure everyone is comfortable and happy with the job and care I give.

We were lucky she was on break from school and work so she could be with them most of the time. You'd be lucky to have her care for your pets.”

Hossanna took great care of our dog and cat! She sent photos and checked in with us. She stayed overnight with them and we felt so much better knowing she was looking after them and they weren’t lonely. She gave medications to our dog, and must’ve done a great job because he is happy and healthy upon our return! Even our cat who is usually shy, made friends with Hossanna.

Regina did a fantastic job taking care of my babies. I received daily updates with pictures of the cats. She was on top of everthing that needed to be done. One of my cats need medication 3 times a day. Regina didn't miss a beat. She adminstered the pill with no problem. She did have a difficulty on one occasion. I told here if she misses one medication the world would not end. It meant a lot to me that she let me know. Overall Regina did an amazing job. I would absolutely provide a good review should someone show interest in having Regina pet sit.

Roxanne is incredible! I’ve found my go-to sitter for future trips. As a first-time housesitting client, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but she exceeded every expectation, caring for my home and giving my two pups endless love and attention. Her photo updates throughout the weekend were such a thoughtful touch and truly put me at ease. I came home to a spotless house and two happy, relaxed dogs, the best feeling any pet owner could ask for. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust completely. I’ll absolutely be booking with Roxanne again! 🐾

Jade was a fantastic sitter for my two dogs. She followed my dogs medication requirements and all of the directions that I left her.
