1. Casey & James M.
“Casey is a great dog sitter and I would highly recommend her! She is a reliable, trustworthy and responsible sitter. She has watched my Pomeranian on multiple occasions. He has separation anxiety so I will not leave him with many people, but I always trust he is in good hands when I leave him with Casey. She is an animal lover and great with dogs, both big and small!”

“April has a big heart and cares deeply for all animals. She is an excellent dog mom and is well versed in caretaking. With experience tending to senior dogs, puppies, and full-grown pups, she has a versatile skillset. Administering medication, feeding - including special diets, being attentive to their needs, playing with them, walking them, and keeping good company, she does it all! I would recommend her to anyone who puts their dog's needs and affection above all.”

“I have known Erika for 8 years and have always known her to be caring, loving and kind to all animals! She has been wonderful to her own dogs and cats - she takes them on amazing adventures like camps, hikes, walks and playtime. She knows their individual needs and is able to cater to them. I have brought my pets to her before and she has treated them like their own. I think she would be a wonderful and responsible caregiver to all fur babies. They will come home feeling so loved and having had a blast!”

9. Madelyn B.
“I am happy to recommend Maddy Bonikowsky for a dog walker/sitter job. She is someone who has always had an incredible passion for animals, especially dogs. Her genuine love and understanding of dogs shine through in most things she does. She not only knows a great deal about dog behavior and care, but she also takes the time to connect and ask questions about each dog she encounters. What stands out the most about Maddy is her kind heart. She’s incredibly patient and compassionate, ensuring that every dog in her care feels safe, loved, and comfortable. On top of that, she’s extremely active which makes her the perfect match for keeping up with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I have no doubt that Maddy would excel in this role, and any pet under her care would be lucky to have such a dedicated, knowledgeable, and caring individual looking out for them.”


10. Roberta L.
“Roberta is a fabulous pet sitter and pet owner, her sidekick Harley is a Gem and adapted well with my dogs. I have 3 dogs whom which 2 of them are Giant breed dogs. I had zero concerns about leaving Roberta to care for them knowing her priority was their comfort and safety while we were away. Roberta asked for full instructions on their care and asked all the right questions!! Kindly, Alita”
