“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.”

“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!”

Anyone would be lucky to have her watch their pets.”

“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!”
“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.”
“Emily was amazing ! Took great care of my two dogs. Send pictures daily. Highly recommend .”
“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.”

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 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!
Elisabeth took great care of our pups over the weekend! Consistent with photos and updates. Will definitely rebook! Our dogs loved her

Nothing but good things to stay for another stay with Marideth! Totally communicative & thoughtful from start to finish! Can’t wait to have her back 🩷
Carolyn was so kind to our old fella and our very nervous younger fella- she is an incredibly sweet soul! She was communicative and reliable, put us right at ease.
Jackie was wonderful with Luna ( my willful Pom) and Mei ( cat). Jackie accommodated neighbors and friends coming by to water outside and bringing their dogs for a visit . Would certainly recommend!
Natalie did a great job. I appreciate her help and she is always sending pictures and updates . Thank you Natalie
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.
Gabby was the best house sitter for my two dogs when I was away for work. She provides consistent and clear communication and cared for both of my dogs and my home like they were her own. I highly recommend her!
Judith can be counted on to never cancel, be awesome, and deal with “unexpected issues” that pop up with doggos.
Jessica was absolutely wonderful. She house sat for me and my two pups and cat. They loved her, she took great care of my place, and she sent me photo updates while I was gone. We can’t wait to book her again next time! Thanks, Jessica!
Jaddua is an absolutely outstanding pet sitter. We always have great peace of mind when we know Ace is with Jaddua. Would highly recommend him to care for your beloved pets!
She was wonderful!.Maddie took great care of our fur babies while.we were out of town! Highly recommend her and will hire her again!
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.
Beatrice was an absolute lifesaver! She stayed with our pup at our home and gave him the best care. Our dog was comfortable and happy. The house felt safe knowing someone trustworthy was looking after everything. Highly recommend for in-home pet sitting.
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!
Madison took such amazing care of Oliver during a long shift. She let him snuggle her and gave lots of love. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and communication. Definitely recommend! I’m sure Ollie is looking forward to next visit.
Hillary was a fantastic sitter for our rowdy and quirky Jack Russell, which means she would do great with any pet. After four days away from our pup, plants, and house, we found everything in perfect happy order. I would definitely book Hillary again and recommend her services!
