“I can't speak highly enough of Christine! She was attentive, communicative, and overall just such an amazing sitter for our pets. She went above and beyond to make our pets feel at home, safe, and loved. We will also reach out to Christine to watch our babies and you should too!”
“Victoria was wonderful, as usual. She kept us up to date on Onyx while we were a way and sent us plenty of pictures. Onyx seemed very happy when we came home, and the house was in great shape too.”
“Matthew did an INCREDIBLE job house sitting for my boyfriend and I. He watched our dog and 3 cats (and a few house plants) while we were out of town for 6 days. We've tried so many options for pet care when we traveled in the past and always seemed to find we came back to stressed pets and a messy house. This trip was so different! The pets were relaxed and happy, the house was perfect and overall we just felt much more at ease knowing they had someone looking out for them. Highly recommend him and will definitely rebook next time we travel!”
“Yuliia is a wonderful sitter and we have booked her as a sitter several times for our dogs! She’s extremely attentive and sends tons of photos! Our dogs were well cared for during our absences!”
“Ana took great care of our home and high maintenance bulldog while we were away. She communicated daily and sent pictures frequently. I would highly recommend Ana! Thank you!😊”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Lizzie. She is kind considerate intelligent and more. She communicated with us often and sent pictures which were welcome. Our dog Riley is still looking around the house for her after us being gone for only three days. I sure hope she’s available the next time we go out of town.”
“Grateful for the care of our furry handful—he really can be a handful due to his dog aggression—and the excellent communication that Dwayne provided. I felt comfortable and confident leaving Pongo in Dwayne's care, which has not always been the case with other sitters. When we returned home, Pongo looked fat and happy. (He always looks fat.) And our house looked great.”
“Needed a last minute house sitter and reached out to Aniela and she was great. Walked, fed, and sent daily updates of the dogs with pictures. Will rebook in the future and would definitely recommend”
“Tiffany was great with my Gracie! It took her a few hours to remember her, as my dog is super weary of newcomers. By the end of her time with Gracie all was well. Will def book Tiffany again! And the house was super clean after :-)”
“Daniel took exceptional care of our two dogs. He was very communicative, kind, and accommodating. I felt at ease from the moment we dropped them off, and Daniel continued to make me feel so throughout their stay. I highly, highly recommend him!”
“Jenna was awesome - super communicative and left a nice note detailing her time with Harry. She sent pictures every day and kept our house super clean! Will be re-using her!”
“Jena does an amazing job! She sent me pictures daily of our dog and took amazing care of him! She also brought in all of our packages and left our house in perfect order! I will definitely be using her again!”
“Shanda is the best! Attention to detail, communication, cleanliness, all of it was great. She filled in on very late notice but came prepared and took care of everything. The boys loved her and she handled everything they threw at her. And she took great care of the house. We will definitely have her back next time we need a sitter.”
“Callie was awesome! We decided to take a weekend trip and left our 3 pups in Callie's care. She was very attentive and professional. She sent plenty of updates and kept us informed the entire time. The pups had a great time and we are very much looking forward to working with Callie in the future. I can't thank her enough!”
“Hannah did a great job taking care of our boys and keeping us updated. We felt comfortable with her in our home and felt confident she would treat our boys as her own. We won’t hesitate to have her stay with them again.”
