“Courtney took great care of Forrest and it was so comforting knowing he was in good hands while we were gone. She gave him all his treats and walks and kept him in his routine while staying at our house, which we really appreciated!”
2. Alicia A.
“Ali was incredible, my pup has some quirks when he’s out on walks so I was nervous about having someone else take care of him but I knew he was in safe and competent hands with Ali! I’m new to the city so I was also nervous about having someone I didn’t know watch him for the weekend but as soon as I met her I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her hands. She was kind to me and Gronk and gave him the love & attention he would get with me!! I will absolutely call her next time I’m out of town??”
3. J T.
“J did an amazing time taking care of our animals. They went above and beyond our expectations. We would hire them again to take care of our animals and our home without hesitation. We got lots of pictures and video and description of what our pets were up to. We had complete peace of mind knowing J was caring for our babies. From the initial contact to the last day of care, we have zero complaints!”
4. Jessica B.
“Jessica is amazing. My previous sitter canceled within 30 minutes, and Jessica showed up 10 minutes after we booked her. She sent so many pictures of both my dogs daily and made sure they got a long walk and lots of play. Jessica is super reliable and perfect for puppies! Will definitely be coming back to her every time I need a sitter.”
5. Jackmar S.
“Jackmar was a wonderful dog/house sitter for us. We had a quick meet and greet to introduce her to the animals and she came with a notebook full of handwritten questions and columns for answers for each of our animals. Wow. We appreciated her thoroughness and thoughtfulness. We’d definitely recommend her to friends and hope to book her again in the future. Thanks, Jackmar!”
6. Christine C.
“Christine was wonderful! This was our first time booking her services, and I would highly recommend her. From our first meet and greet, it was clear she had a lot of experience caring for animals. She was easy to talk to, had good communication during our time away, and went out of her way to care for our dog, Jovi (who can be a bit of a handful and hard to walk sometimes!). She even went out of her way to take him to his favorite park/trail one of the evenings. The coolest thing was finding out she had cared for Jovi when he was a puppy before we adopted him (we’ve had him since he was 1 year old). His previous owner had also contacted Christine for dog sitting, and she was able to look back through her pictures and find young puppy photos of our Jovi! It was totally meant to be! 😆 I highly recommend Christine for all of your animal care needs!”
7. Emma C.
“Emma was incredibly kind and responsive during her caregiving of Huitl! She always checked-in promptly and was very respectful and attentive to Huitlacoche’s needs. She also kept our apartment tidy and well looked after during the sit! We’ll be booking again for future pug care needs.”
8. Brooke B.
“Brooke was fantastic. The dogs loved her most importantly but she was attentive, gave lots of updates and even did some extra little things we were not expecting. We would definitely use her services again in the future.”
9. Brandy B.
“Brandy was great with our 2 dogs. We were gone for 2 weeks and had 2 different sitters. I was worried about the transition due to only having 1 guest room & the changing of sheets but they worked it out 😁! Also had someone picking things up that kept getting pushed out; & our fridge went out 🤪. Brandy was not only great w/our pups but handled all the craziness so my worry went away 😊. Brandy communicated w/me throughout her time w/the dogs.”
10. Sarah J.
“Sarah is amazing. I could tell as soon as I met her that Toasty was going to have a great experience. Sarah had so much love for him. My Toasty is an anxious boy and Sarah made him feel so calm. He warmed up to her very fast. While I was gone, Sarah sent pics and made me feel confident that my Toast was being cared for and loved. I highly recommend Sarah to care for your pets :)”
11. Barbara C.
“Barbara truly cares about the dogs and the house under her care! We came home to some happy pups and a house just as clean as we had left it. Barbara clearly spends lots of time engaging, playing, and spoiling the dogs. So glad we found her!!!!”
12. Courtney N.
“Courtney was amazing watching my 2 pups while I was gone for a weekend! She was excellent as far as providing updates with pictures and they looked very happy through her entire stay with them. Came home to a clean house and happy dogs, I will absolutely be booking Courtney again.”
13. Taeler K.
“Taeler was fantastic - I can’t recommend enough! She took amazing care of my pup Lobo, who is a sweet but also shy rescue. She was very attentive and gave Lobo plenty of love while I was gone!”
14. Matt D.
“Matt is a full blown dog person and an excellent/knowledgeable dog sitter!. I have been boarding my dog with Matt for the past year and everything has exceeded expectations. Matt is patient and kind and loves dogs. He taught my rather vacuous (but extra-ordinary in every other way :) big ol' dog to use a doggie door. This was no small feat! Cant recommend Matt enough.”
15. Lyana A.
“Lyana helped me out last minute. She let me ask 1 million questions and made me feel safe about leaving my dogs for the first time. While I was gone, she sent me lots of updates and photos, and really went above and beyond while watching my pets. I’m really grateful for her help.”
16. Jena G.
“Jena was excellent with my 2 bassets! The best part of working with Jena was how communicative she was. She sent pictures throughout the stay, and was very comfortable asking questions and keeping me updated on the boys. She really made me and my husband feel at ease with her at our home with the boys. Jena even went above and beyond, checking in to make sure we got home ok and that everyone was good! She has a kind spirit, and the dogs really took to her. Definitely will book again!”
17. Amber B.
“Amber was awesome while watching my dogs! I felt at ease knowing they were in such good hands while I was out of town. She followed their schedule and care instructions perfectly and took them on lots of walks. Would love to have Amber watch them again for my upcoming trips 😊”
18. Anahy V.
“Anahy stayed with our dogs for the first time over the weekend! During our meet and greet, both of the dogs took to her so quickly - even our dog who is usually very anxious and unsure of strangers was walking close for pets. She really went above and beyond! She gave the dogs a nice brush, sent lots of photos, and even took the trash out before she left. It was so nice getting out for a weekend and knowing someone we trusted was home taking care of our little besties. We can’t wait to book with her again! <3”
19. Colleen N.
“Colleen was absolutely incredible with my two dogs. She checked in daily and sent the best photos. Honestly they looked like they were having a blast. She was also very attentive in my space. I felt confident my babes were in great hands the entire time. I highly recommend her!”
20. Kate L.
“I cannot have asked for someone better to have watched and cared for my doggie!! So grateful for the updates and photos. She was so responsive and helpful!!! Highly recommend and can’t wait to have Frankie cared for by her in the future!”
