“I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.”

14. Jonathan C.
“Jonathan just spent the weekend with our dog, Bogart. We came home to a tidy house and a very happy pup. We got frequent updates with many great pictures and plan to use Jonathan again when we go on an extended trip this Fall. Bogart is a very big dog and has never been left with anyone except family. Jonathan has a very calm and relaxed vibe and Bogart seemed immediately comfortable with him at their first meeting and was very excited when he returned for the weekend. It’s very nice to have found someone we are comfortable with to take care of our dog and our home.”
15. Jordan C.
“Jordan was so phenomenal with our two girls! One of them is very shy and weary of new people. In a few days time, Jordan had won her over with patience and care. Jordan is respectful, attentive, communicative, and very professional. Would highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs. Thank you for everything, Jordan :)”
16. Brian W.
“Brian was great as a sitter for my pups and my home! I have two pups - one who can struggle with reactivity and another who can be stubborn in her houndy ways - and they were very comfortable with him from their first meeting on! They have never had anyone care for them in the house overnight that they did not already know, so I was nervous, but he did well assessing and responding to their vibes and needs and was excellent in his communication with me. I highly recommend Brian for your dog-walking or house-sitting needs!”

“Rose was fantastic, we couldn’t ask for a better pet sitting experience. All of our pets adored her and seemed more than happy in her care. She sent lovely updates/photos of them and wasn’t afraid to reach out with questions. It was the most worry-free pet sitting experience and we look forward to travelling again knowing our pets will be safe and loved in her care.”
