Krista was so fantastic! My dog Dean can sometimes have separation anxiety but he was immediately calmed by Krista and it was clear from the photos she sent that he was comfortable and happy throughout his stay. Krista was incredibly warm and communicative, and treated Dean like he was her own (such as allowing him to cuddle in the bed!). I definitely plan to reach out to Krista anytime I need a dogsitter in Portland.

I have a very anxious dog and it’s been difficult to find a sitter who gets along with him but Marna has been a total lifesaver. She has been very professional, accommodating, and just delightful to work with, and I highly recommend her.

Michaela was great with Barley for an evening so my wife and I could go to a festival. Even in the relatively short time, she sent multiple photos and videos of Barley clearly having a great time with Michaela, her partner, and her dog Gus. I would recommend her to anyone in Portland!

Jake was amazing with my dog, Ridge! From the very start he was friendly and easy to communicate with, and he kept me updated the whole time with plenty of photos. Ridge looked so happy and well-cared for in every picture, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. Jake was professional, reliable, and clearly loves spending time with dogs. I’d absolutely book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

Lindsay did such a great job with our pug, Chloe. She sent photos, played with her, took her for long walks. When we picked Chloe up - she was perfectly calm and clearly felt comfortable and lived with Lindsay.

Kelly was wonderful with our dog Jimmy! She took him to the lake, and he had an absolute blast playing there. She kept us updated throughout the weekend, sending us updates with pictures and videos. He probably didn’t want to come home! We’ll definitely book Kelly again.
