Ming did a great job looking after our cat and house. This is her second stay and both times she left the house and plants in great shape. It was nice to have the litter and garbage changed and washed sheets on the bed when we got home (thanks!) Our cat got play time, outside time and cuddles and was very content when we came home. Thanks, Ming!

Sonya is absolutely FANTASTIC. Our first time using a professional dog sitter and we could not have been more pleased. Super impressed by everything. She is kind, patient, attentive, and an absolute animal lover through and through. She sent pictures daily with updates on our pups well being and how he was doing adjusting to someone new. She even swapped our bed sheets over for when we returned home so we didn’t have to. Absolutely wonderful woman. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Sonya, we will be back to hopefully book her in the future to watch our Finnigan! Thank you so much Sonya for loving our boy while we slipped out of town!

Kandall is absolutely amazing! We cannot emphasize enough how trustworthy she is. Kendall was professional, responsive, reliable and our pup just loved her (maybe even a bit more than us lol). Her attention to detail, daily updates and respect she showed to our home while staying her was so appreciated. She truly did everything she could to spoil our pampered pooch. It allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing our home, pup and guinea pigs were well cared for.

Taija went above and beyond to care for our pets while my partner and I unexpectedly had to leave town on short notice. It was so relieving to know that our pets and home were taken care of while we were away and allowed us to fully be there for our family. Taija was great with communication, making sure all expectations were clear, and she sent many cute photos of our fur babies! Would recommend to anyone looking for a house sitter.

Ramesh and Lauren watched my pup for a few days at my place on fairly short notice. It was easy to book and work with them as they were really easy to communicate with. My pup comes with quite a few quirks and they were able to figure out how to work with him to make sure his needs were being met. As the week went along I could see that he was getting more comfortable with them which was great to see.

Miri is a genuine and kind person. Our dog, an incredible judge of character, was warm to her right away. She asked great questions to get to know our pup and her needs and immediately began working with her and gaining trust. 10/10 would recommend.

I'm so glad I reached out to Finn to take care of my cat! They were absolutely amazing and I couldn't recommend them enough. What set them apart was how thoughtful and considerate they were of my cat right from the start. As an anxious cat mom, I felt completely at ease while Finn was watching my cat. They followed my instructions perfectly-it was like they were my clone! Communication was always quick and easy, and I really appreciated receiving updates and adorable photos of my cat. On top of all of that, my home was exactly the way I left it when I returned, and my cat looked happy, healthy-maybe even better than when I left! I'll definitely be reaching out again on my next trip.

Shannon took great care of our dog Stormy when we were out of town. She stayed at our place, sent us pictures of their walks and regular updates, and made sure Stormy was fed and well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Shannon if you’re looking for someone to take care of your pet.

I am beyond thrilled with the care that Diana has provided for my dog. They are incredibly attentive, reliable, and genuinely passionate about their work. My dog Firulais absolutely adores her, which speaks about their warm and caring nature. From the moment I met Diana, I knew my dog was in excellent hands. They go above and beyond, ensuring that every need is met, whether it's a walk, feeding, or just spending quality time with my furry friend. I appreciate their flexibility and willingness to accommodate my schedule, always with a smile. What truly sets Diana apart is their attention to detail and the personal connection they build with my dog. I receive regular updates, including photos and videos, which always bring a smile to my face. It's clear that they treat my dog like their own, providing not just care, but genuine affection. I couldn't ask for a better caregiver for my dog. Diana is a true professional, and I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.

Jenny looked after our cat over Christmas. She is calm, professional and really understands cats and their quirks. We appreciated her flexibility when we had to extend our absence by a day. We had complete peace of mind while away, and it’s nice to come home to a happy cat.

I've known Sarina for years, and her bond with animals is truly special. Whenever she cared for my pets, they were overjoyed the moment they heard her voice, tails wagging and eyes gleaming with excitement. Their genuine affection for her made it easy for me to feel confident and at ease whenever I left them in her care. Sarina's warm personality and attentive nature make her a fantastic choice for any pet parent seeking trustworthy care.

Ella P is a dog whisperer. She has loved dogs since she was a toddler and never have I seen her scared of you. After years of begging for a dog and writing letters to her parents explaining why she would be a good dog owner, she finally got one in 2020. She loves her dog, she walks for hours with her dog, she takes her dog to the off leash parks, she trains her dog, she is, as she said she would be, a reliable, loving, responsible dog owner. She would be a fantastic dog sitter/walker/ caregiver for your dog too.

Maddy is one of of the most responsible pet caregivers we've used. She's looked after our 2 dogs, 2 cats, lizard, turtle, and chickens. She was amazing with our reactive dog who generally took a long time to warm up to people and definitely didn't do well with other dogs. She even kept on top of the various meds required by the dogs. We'll be using her again when she's back in town.
