“Alayza is a dog whisperer! She’s amazing, kind and patient. My dog has big stranger danger and fear aggression when meeting someone new and it seems he warmed up to her pretty quickly. By the second day he was cuddling with her and letting her pet him! I highly recommend Alayza!”

“Russell was great. He took wonderful care of my dog at my apartment for a long weekend. He was very communicative and easy to work with. I would recommend Russell!”

“Eric helped me out on short notice when my original pet sitting plans fell through. He was very helpful and responsive and did a great job caring for my cat and dog!”
“Nicole and Kieran were absolutely wonderful! They were incredibly patient with my anxious barky dog and made sure she felt comfortable. They provided updates and photos every day and took great care of my pets and home. I would rebook them any time!”
“Amazing! Kai took such great care of my dog; gave him a ton of attention and took him out to meet his family which was very sweet. Rio seemed to have a blast with him, I will absolutely be using Kai again in the future. Thank you!”

“Jayme was a good house sitter and took good care of our dog and cat. Jayme updated us daily with texts and pictures, and answered questions promptly. When we returned our pets were happy and our home was just as we left it. If we need a house sitter/pet sitter again, we will reach out to Jayme!”

“Michael was wonderful to work with! He was really responsive and took great care of my foster dog. It's clear he's a dog lover and my pup was in excellent hands in his care! I'd definitely reach out to Michael for future dog sitting needs.”

“Emma was very flexible and helpful when she extended the visit when my travels got delayed due to weather. I appreciated her flexibility and communication so much!”

“Kymberlee was great! It was our first time leaving Bella for this long and we were nervous. She provided regular updates, sent pictures, and kept Bella company the whole time we were gone. And the place was cleaner when we got back then when we left it! Will absolutely be calling Kymberlee in the future!!”
“Mark was amazing with our dog, going above and beyond with him when we were out of town. We have a high energy dog and mark took him on several long walks. He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!”

“Really went above and beyond in caring for my dog with special needs - GREAT communication and updates and I came home to a perfectly happy pup! Thank you so much!!!”

“We recently had the pleasure of having Stephanie house sit for me while I was away for a 6 day work trip/vacation. As a Doberman owner, finding someone who understands and connects with my dog, Ruger, is paramount. Stephanie exceeded all expectations and was truly exceptional in every way. From our initial meeting, it was clear that Stephanie had a genuine love for dogs and an understanding of the specific needs and personalities of Dobermans. They were incredibly attentive to Ruger, taking the time to learn about his routine, his likes and dislikes, and even his quirky habits. Stephanie’s approach was both professional and personal, which made me feel confident in their ability to care for Ruger in my absence. During my trip, Stephanie provided frequent updates with photos and videos, showing Ruger playing, going on walks, and even learning to have more focused and calm walks! It was evident that Ruger was not just being cared for but was also enjoying a lovely time. Stephanie also managed the house impeccably, ensuring everything was clean and in order upon my return. What set Stephanie apart was their ability to bond with Ruger. Dobermans can be selective, yet Ruger clearly respected with Stephanie, showing a level of trust and affection that he reserves for few people. This bond was the ultimate reassurance for me that Ruger was in the best hands. Stephanie is not just a house sitter; they are a compassionate and skilled individual with a deep understanding of dogs (and other animals). I wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced sitter, especially for those with Dobermans or similar breeds. Stephanie has become my go-to person for pet and house sitting, and I am truly grateful for the peace of mind and care they provided. Ruger is even more well behaved than before and we are looking forward to having Stephanie over again!”

“Katelyn was so great with our senior dog! She was patient with her special needs and gave so many updates. Aside from taking great care of our dog, she left our apartment so clean and tidy! We would definitely have her back any time we’re out of town!”

“Virginia was absolutely amazing with my stubborn-but-sweet old lady pitbull. So amazing, in fact, that I handed Virginia a dog that was hopped up on anti-anxiety with an upset stomach, and received in return a happy, chunky, well-rested pup. Clearly, Virginia’s patience and kindness won over even the grumpiest of dogs, and for that, I am very grateful. Thank you, Virginia!”

“Flor was such a wonderful sitter for my foster pup Betty and my house! She was incredibly communicative, worked to understand my dog's specific needs, and took really thoughtful care of my home. I would absolutely work with Flor again in the future!”


“We hired Karima to pet sit/house sit while we went away for a few days. It was our first time leaving our two dogs at home because traveling and leaving them at someone else’s house causes them stress in their older age, and we are so happy we found Karima! She followed their schedule perfectly and administered medication to our older guy. She provided videos and updates which put us at ease. She also left the house spotless and the dogs were happily exhausted by the time we got home. We will be hiring her again in the future!”

At this point, I’m not even sure how many times Jane has housesat for us! She is always reliable and conscientious and takes great care of our high-energy cat and our home. This time, she went above and beyond by coordinating key pickup with a housesitter who took over for the last few days of our trip (bc neither were available for the full trip), and by being home to accept a delivery of a bike for our kid. Thanks, Jane!
I'm so glad I booked Grace last minute for overnight house and cat sitting. My cat can be very shy and anxious when we're gone, to the point of not eating. Grace offered to do a meet and greet and kitty warmed up to her quicker than anyone else he's met, even rubbing up against her. She's one of those rare people that animals trust and love right away. During our trip, Grace sent us frequent updates with photos and videos, and confirmed he was having medicine each day. It was clear that he felt very comfortable and confident around her! She also made sure to inform us of packages received and any other house-related updates. She was extremely respectful of our home and went above and beyond cleaning after herself, which was very appreciated after traveling. When you leave your pet alone with someone new, it can be nerve wracking. I can reassure anyone in need of a sitter that Grace will treat your baby like her own.

Hannah did a fantastic job watching Ivy! She provided several updates throughout the day and took Ivy on lots of adventures! I know Ivy was very well taken care of and she left our apartment spotless! 10/10 would recommend and will definitely have her watch Ivy again!

Arianna was incredible with Dax! Not only did she take great care of my little guy, but she was also extremely respectful of my space. Arianna is very friendly, kind, and professional - she’s clearly a seasoned caretaker. I hope to stay in touch and book with her again in the near future.

All the stars for Taylor! Communication was excellent, she was a very courteous house guest, and most importantly, she was phenomenal with my two pups. In particular, I have one shy but very sweet JRT, and Taylor handled his quirks beautifully (he was demanding pets in record time). My other dog, a hound, is sweet but full of mischief, and Taylor likewise was really great about his big dopey antics. We loved getting to have Taylor take care of our boys, our boys really loved Taylor (and their new friend Gizmo!!) and we are excited to use her services again next time we travel!

Zaida took care of our senior dog and teenager cat overnight for a few weeks. We appreciated her flexibility- first with a mistake on my part for booking one day less than needed, and then when our return flight delayed 10+ hrs she agreed to stay an extra night. She also administered medications and sent us regular updates on our guys. I’m not sure if she regularly does cats, but our cat still seems to look for her whenever the front door opens! Zaida is a superstar sitter! 💫

Gena has been the best sitter for our dog, Nellie. We have loved having her stay in our home and take care of Nellie while we’ve traveled, and Nellie absolutely adores her. We are moving and will be sad to lose such reliable and kind care for our dog.

Mark was great with our two corgis and our cat while we were away - we got daily updates, photos and videos of their adventures and they were happy and tired when we got home. Our house was pristine when we got home - so happy to have found someone we can leave our little ones with when they can’t come with us!

Jayne watched our two dogs for three nights while we were out of town. One of our dogs is anxious and takes some time to warm up to new people but Jayne didn’t bat an eye during the meet and greet. It’s clear she has experience handling a wide variety of temperaments and Winnie warmed up to her quickly. We came home to two very happy dogs and a clean house. Grateful to have found a trustworthy person who seems to enjoy connecting with a variety of doggy personalities.

We have just recently moved to CT, and I will be honest I was nervous about finding a new pet sitter for our mini Aussie. I immediately zeroed in on Carol’s profile, and we scheduled a call. A calmness came over me after our informative conversation. We booked her right away for August. Then we scheduled a quick get away this past weekend. Carol was wonderful. She handled Maverick’s reactive behavior upon meeting him with a caring approach. They became fast friends. Carol kept me updated throughout our time away. She provided pictures, told me what activities she was doing to keep him mentally stimulated, how he was eating, etc. We are so fortunate to have found Carol. I highly recommend her, but secretly would love to keep her for ourselves :) We will also be rebooking her for October.
