“Ashly was absolutely amazing with my two dogs! They can definitely be a handful at times, but she followed all of my instructions very thoroughly, from their specific feeding schedule to the way they go potty in the yard and even how to clean up afterward. I really appreciated how thorough, nice, and attentive she was, and it showed. I came home to happy pups and a spotless house! She also kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. This was the longest amount of time I left the dogs. I’m so grateful for the care she gave my dogs and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and loving sitter.”
“Maia was kind enough to come to a meet and greet visit days before the sitting job. I enjoyed our time chatting and getting to know a bit about her. I felt really good about leaving Sully with her. During the actual sitting job, she had planned many activities to help keep my high energy puppy busy. We know that they went for walks, played ball and much more as he was tired out! And that was a good thing! Looking forward to a repeat visit. Thanks Maia for taking such good care of Sully.”
“Jessica stayed with our dog Sadie while we were away for a week. She was great! We got lots of pictures of Sadie and knew she was in good hands while we were away, and we came home to a happy pup!”
“Marti did a great job staying with my girls for a few days! I had lots of updates and pictures and my ladies just loved Marti! Great communication and an excellent experience.”
“Jackie took care of Lucy for the weekend and did a great job. She was kind, respectful and you could tell she loved caring for others pets. I would highly recommend and would book with her again in the future.”
“Haley was so great and we will definitely book her again. She was super responsive, sent us updates and photos, and left the house in perfect condition. We definitely trust her with our pup!”
“Could not be happier with Marideth's house-sitting! She took great care of both my mother's and my own cats while we were away. She also went the extra mile to make sure our trash was out and snow shoveled when the snow came! 10/10 would book her again!”
“We entrusted our beloved furry friend to Rave’s care for six nights while we were away on our summer vacation—and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Rave was incredibly easy to communicate with and kept us updated every day with thoughtful messages and adorable photos of our pup. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our buddy was not only well looked after but genuinely happy and comfortable. We truly appreciate the care and attention Rave provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“Ciara was amazing as always! She stayed over with our GSD for the weekend and she gave us constant updates and pictures throughout the entire stay! I would trust her with my babies any day!”
“Haley did amazing with our baby, kept us up to date with how things were and when she got there and when she left..very responsive and dependable. Will definitely be using her again :)”
“Amy was great! So chill and easy going. Our German Shepherd and Shihtzu have occasional squabbles and it was so great knowing they were safety under Amy’s care. She stayed the night with them— didn’t mind them hogging her space or all the shep hair and she left our house like she wasn’t even staying here. Thank you, Amy!”
“Carolyn so kindly came and watched Charlie on very short notice. She is so knowledgeable about dogs and so kind when she speaks to him, I knew he was in good hands. She sent a lot of updates and photos. I will absolutely ask her to care for him in the future. I can’t say enough good things about her.”
“Nicole was an amazing dog sitter! She worked from home so she could stay with my anxious pup. Communication was excellent - timely responses and I got pictures every day. She even left a little postcard of pictures she took of my dog for me when I get home! So cute! I felt comfortable with her at my house, which she left as tidy as she found it. Anyone would be lucky to have her watch their pets.”
“I can’t say enough about how wonderful Beste was with my little dog Harry. He is elderly, blind and hard of hearing. He doesn’t like many people but he loved Beste. He is on medications and is a finicky eater. He took his meds from Beste and he ate well. He is sometimes incontinent but during her 3 day stay he only had one accident. She sent me many pics and videos and I was able to enjoy my long weekend away without having to worry about Harry. I highly recommend Beste, she is the best.”
“Ray did an amazing job with my two older frenchies - they were incredibly well cared for while I was away. This was my first time using Ray and Rover, and I will absolutely use Ray again. Perfect care for the dogs and very trustworthy at your home.”
“We couldn’t have been any happier with Kayla staying with our 3 dogs. She stayed for 8 days in our home. We traveled for Christmas and Kayla kept in touch daily and sent pictures. She left a detailed report of the adventure and any important information we needed to know upon returning home. She texted when she arrived and when she departed. We will definitely be booking Kayla again for our next trip.”

Jackie continues to be awesome. One of my pups got sick and she took him to the vet and then cared for him. She reported vet findings clearly and what meds he needed administered so I could easily take over when I got home. The other two pups were fine and she also gave them the love and care they needed. We can always tell when the dogs have been well cared for because while they’re very happy to see us, they don’t seem at all stressed. Just switching people who care about them.
I am beyond grateful for the incredible care Hillary provided to my two rescue dogs, Astrid and Rocco. These pups aren’t the easiest to look after—they come with a full set of challenges and sensitivities—but she handled everything with patience, compassion, and attention to detail. From the thorough pre-visit questions to the daily updates (complete with thoughtful notes and adorable photos), it was clear that Astrid and Rocco were in the best hands. Hillary went above and beyond to make sure both dogs felt safe and comfortable. I came home to two happy, relaxed dogs. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter who truly understands and respects the unique needs of rescue animals!
Natalie was phenomenal with my dog, Lina over a 5 day house-sitting booking. She took the time to ask questions, and was attentive when learning about Lina's quirks and her daily routine. She'd always send multiple updates a day, pictures on walks and at meal times. My apartment was just as I left it when I returned. Would absolutely recommend her, she'll treat your dog like they're her own, and is super respectful when house sitting. Will definitely book again!
Kayla was reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond to leave our apartment in great shape! We were able to enjoy our travel without worrying about the care of our little cat - receiving daily pictures and confirmation of arrivals and departures. Kayla made the process super easy/simple, giving us so much peace of mind. :)
Once again, a great experience with Judith. She is timely, experienced and tends to all the needs of my dog, Earl. When I return home he is relaxed and the home is in the exact same condition when I left. Judith is the only overnight sitter who I trust. I don’t even check in while away.
Haley was wonderful! She was a respectful house guest. She gave us updates and sent photos of our dogs through out her stay. She was very thorough in her questions getting to know our dogs and their routine. She was overall great to work with. We will definitely be using her in the future!
Ann made herself to care for Enzo on very short notice. Even so, she stopped by to meet him ahead of time. She kept in regular communication with us. Despite being stung by a bee on the paw (which Ann made us aware of immediately), Enzo was in excellent spirits when we arrived home. He obviously was well loved in our absence.
I can’t say enough about how wonderful Beste was with my little dog Harry. He is elderly, blind and hard of hearing. He doesn’t like many people but he loved Beste. He is on medications and is a finicky eater. He took his meds from Beste and he ate well. He is sometimes incontinent but during her 3 day stay he only had one accident. She sent me many pics and videos and I was able to enjoy my long weekend away without having to worry about Harry. I highly recommend Beste, she is the best.
Nicholas was a fantastic sitter! When we did the meet and greet, he spent ample time with us as we went over both Bear (GSD) and Spyro's (Bearded Dragon) daily routine. While staying at our house, he was able to administer oral medication to Spyro and food/hang out with Bear (who definitely has separation anxiety issues). He was even able to walk Bear even though he is dog reactive! We got photos while we were gone as well, which was nice. I highly recommend Nicholas!
