21. Carolina & Isaac H.

“She was great made sure my doggo was okay and took lots of pictures !”


22. Hanee G.

“Hanee is always very communicative and understanding in the needs of my senior cat. I appreciate her care and the messages she sends me while I’m away. I will also be hopeful she’d accept my request for care in the future and will highly recommend her to anyone needing care for their pets.”


23. Tyler G.

“Thank you for looking after my dogs so well! We appreciated the meet & greet, and the detailed report! Definitely will call you again!”


24. Rita C.

“I have a 14, almost 15 year old, reactive Jack Russell that I never leave with anyone. It took a lot for me to trust but Rita came through beyond my expectations. She was amazing with my girl and took really good care of her. And what strengthens my trust in Rita is she instinctively knows how to handle a reactive dog. She kept my girl safe and not only met her needs that I outlined, but also gave her lots of love and affection. It gave me a lot of comfort and reassurance seeing updates via video and pics. So grateful for Rita. Now I have someone I can turn to which will give me some freedom back in my life. Thank you, Rita!”


25. Wenxiu & Rick Z.
“Wenxiu is one of the kindest and most loving people I have ever met. Her deep affection for her dog, Lychee, is always evident. She treats walking Lychee as a joyful routine, taking her out three times a day—each walk lasting at least 30 minutes, and always makes sure Lychee doesn’t accidentally eat anything harmful. On weekends, she often takes Lychee hiking, and they have the best time together exploring nature. Whether it’s a backpacking trip, a camping adventure, or just a day out, Lychee is always by Wenxiu’s side. Her dedication and gentle care truly show the depth of her love.”


26. Wenge & Changhe H.

“Wenge & Changhe are fantastic pet sitters! Wenge‘s service is as wonderful as her beauty. The response time is incredibly quick, making the entire booking process effortless and stress-free. They were always available to answer my questions and provided updates without me even having to ask. It truly gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands!”


27. Abigail C.


“Abigail was a LIFESAVER. She was polite and on time and took amazing care of my cats. She went above and beyond on her last day when she noticed an emergency in my kitchen. She handled it perfectly and I was SO thankful for her care and and attention to detail”


28. Andres C.
“I honestly can't say enough good things about Andres! I’m so incredibly grateful for the care he gave my dog, Willow. Willow is a pretty anxious pup, and it’s always been a challenge finding someone he feels comfortable with. But Andres connected with him right away and it was such a relief. He didn’t just take care of the basics (which he did perfectly); he went above and beyond. Andres worked with Willow on his leash manners and helped him feel more confident during walks. I could tell he was so patient and understanding with him, which made a huge difference. I felt completely at peace knowing Willow was in such good hands. It's rare to find someone who genuinely “gets” your dog the way Andres does. I can’t recommend him enough—if you’re on the fence, just book him. You won’t regret it! ❤️”


29. Judy D.

“She was great. Showed up early, got along swimmingly with Luna, did a wonderful job. Highly recommended. Well use her services again.”


30. Emily J.

“Emily is wonderful! She is communicative and so kind. I am always so appreciative when she is available to come see my dog, and would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Emily!”


31. Emily W.

“Emily is very friendly, and our dog loved her. She's very considerate of our dogs needs. Sometimes Bella likes to go on long walks, but when it's too hot, she prefers shorter walks. Emily realized that Bella wanted a shorter walk the 2nd time she took her out, and came back with her. Bella had done what she needed to do and didn't want to go any further. Emily offered to take her out again, but I explained to her that Bella makes her choice if it's too hot, she won't go on extended walks. She was very good with Bella.”


32. Madison R.
“Madie is quite a wonderful person. She is thoughtful caring and patient. She is incredible with dogs. Whether they are young and high energy or older and need more assistance, she supports their needs. I have known Madie for a long time and seen her incredible skills with dogs of all kinds. I would highly recommend her.”


33. Kat P.
“Kat caught a medical issue in our cat that saved his life. She has such a calming affect on our pets. She’s wonderful with animals.”


34. Radu S.
“Radu has been an incredible sitter for my dog, Guy. Over the past year, he’s spent multiple weeks with him and has also taken him on countless walks and play dates. From the very first stay, it was clear that Radu has a natural connection with dogs. Guy warmed up to him instantly, which isn’t always the case! Every time Guy stays with Radu, I know he’s not only being well cared for but also genuinely loved and engaged. Radu keeps me updated with regular messages and photos, which I appreciate. It’s always easy to see how happy and relaxed Guy is in his care. Whether it's a quick walk or a longer stay, Radu is dependable, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about what he does. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can completely trust with my dog. Guy absolutely adores him, and I couldn’t ask for a better sitter or dog buddy. Highly, highly recommend!”


35. Cierra B.
“Cierra is the best dog sitter you could possibly wish for. Her passion for animals is shown very clearly in the level of training her own dog displays. I am confident and don't have to think twice when my dog Maya is with her. Maya always comes back exhausted and more well mannered than when I left her so you know they are actually being active when Cierra has them and not like those walkers that just get to the park, snap a pic, and leave. She will spend hours entertaining my pup. I will always be leaving my pup with Cierra without question she's my one and only!”


36. Letong S.
“Letong is super responsive and responsible! I have a grumpy cat who always wants to be alone. Letong has a lot of patience, she takes care of the cat very well but also gives her a lot of space!! I definitely will choose Letong again if I travel in summer! She is friendly, you will not regret your choice!”


37. Hannah B.
“I've hired Hannah multiple times to look after my cats and she has never failed to provide exceptional service. Reliable, responsive, and most importantly: our cats love her. I highly recommend hiring Hannah for any extended pet sitting services. A+!!”

39. Caitlan B.

“Caitlan did a wonderful job looking after our kitties! She followed the written instructions I left, cleaned up excess litter and a hairball (bless her lol), kept the cats well fed and watered, and most importantly well loved! She took great pictures and left detailed notes daily. I would definitely book Caitlan again!!”
