Bradley was the perfect pet sitter. He was communicative and responsive and treated my home with respect. He sent frequent updates and pictures of my cat. He even helped out when the cat went missing unexpectedly, offering to look for him and lending a cat carrier. I will be using Bradley again for sure and I recommend you use him for your pet needs too!

Merissa is a wonderful sitter and we are extremely happy with the care she provides! We have a few senior animals with special food and medical needs, and she made sure to follow all our instructions and kept us updated throughout her stay. She makes sure all of the animals are well-exercised and stimulated. We already have our next sit booked with her and highly recommend her as a responsible and thoughtful sitter.

Abigail was so amazing I’m almost hesitant to leave a great review because I don’t want to share her with anyone else! We have been looking for a while for a Pet Sitter we love and trust. We definitely found that with Abigail! Hoping she continues to be our Pet Sitter for the foreseeable future. She was absolutely amazing with the animals.

Jessica was a wonderful dog/house sitter for my 3 yr old Boxer Lucy. She truly allowed me to relax and not worry while I was on a long trip away from Lucy. She also took great care of my house, including watering my plants along with other tasks that were a great help while I was away. Thank you for your great care!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and caring for pets has always been part of my routine. I have more than 6 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of different ages and sizes. I currently have one dog and two cats, so I understand daily care, routines, behavior and I learned how train my dog by my own so we can do hikes together. I’m patient, responsible, and I always follow the owner’s instructions to keep pets safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m a student with morning classes, so I have a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available on week days before 8am or 4pm and most weekends too I’m free. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I have experience caring for animals since childhood and I currently have one dog and two cats at home. I treat every pet like part of the family. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep the environment clean and safe, and make sure pets have regular feeding times, walks, and attention. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities.

Jenna & Aidan must have done an excellent job taking care of my cat as she didn't yell at me for hours upon my return home!! She was as happy as could be. J&A were very responsive, and timely. I appreciated their willingness to meet up a head of time to see the lay of the land. I would use them again in a heart beat.

About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and I have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds. I have a deep respect for all animals, including those that are shy or have special needs, and I'm committed to giving every animal the care they deserve. I'm available on most weekends and holidays. During the week I work full time, but occasionally I do have weekdays available, as well as most Fridays in June and July. I can also do late afternoon or evening drop ins during the week - even if I have the day blocked off I can often still do an evening visit, feel free to message me and ask. When introducing myself I allow the animal to approach me first, I take things slow if they're shy or nervous. I'm familiar with dog and cat body language so I can recognize signs of stress. When walking dogs I'm always aware of my surroundings and will adjust the route if I need to.

Ayva took wonderful care of our dog, Bondi, for four days while staying at our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Ayva was responsible, kind, and genuinely caring toward Bondi. It was clear that she loves animals and treats them with patience and affection. Bondi was happy, well-exercised, and calm when we returned, which says everything about the quality of care he received. Ayva followed all our instructions carefully, kept the home neat and tidy, and regularly updated us, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We felt completely comfortable leaving both our home and our beloved dog in Ayva’s care. She is trustworthy, reliable, and thoughtful,exactly the kind of person you hope to find when you need someone to look after your pet. We would highly recommend Ayva to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet-sitter and would happily ask her to help again in the future. 🐶💛

We had Bradley housesit for us and our dog and cat were so well taken care of. Both Tove and Buddy were completely content when we got home as if we never even left. Tove was given plenty of attention and walks. Bradley is able to handle Tove who has leash reactivity and can be a handful. Buddy also was at ease and seemed loved the extra attention. Overall a really wonderful experience and we hope to have Bradley sit for us again.

Eydid did an amazing job house sitting and pet setting my elderly cat Simone for nearly 3 weeks, while I was on honeymoon. He routinely sent pictures and videos and even spent the night a few times to give Simone night time cuddles, which she loves so much. She was in the best spirits I’ve seen my cat after being gone for so long I am recommending him (and Valeria) to all of my friends

Yesenia was amazing with Blurry and River. She took great care of their physical needs as well as their emotional needs by petting and playing with them throughout the day. Yesenia also did a fantastic job keeping me updated on any issues as well as sending me regular pictures and even videos of Blurry and River during her time caring for them. She followed all directions for my fur babies and was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Yesenia to care for anyone's pets.

On a holiday weekend, at the last minute, Lynne jumped into the frail. Showed up without a Meet-n-Greet, and the dogs loved her. Like children with a new babysitter—they were on their best behavior. So all went smoothly and we were allowed to relax and do what we needed to.

Alex was an incredible sitter! He stayed with our dogs for a few days while we were out of town. He took great care of them, going above and beyond by bringing additional feeding tools and toys he thought would work well for them (thank you for introducing Oslo to a slow feeder!). He was very attentive to their needs, sent photos often, and provided frequent updates via text. Thank you so much Alex! We can't recommend him highly enough!
