An amazing dog sitter and person! She watched our 3 dogs for the weekend while we went on a trip. The dogs had a great time! She didn’t have to text us for any questions past what we had discussed, She also put our sheets from the bedroom in the washer so we didn’t even have to do that when we got home. Great communicator and so nice! Shannon is on the top of our list next time we need a dog walker or dog watcher.

Makayla was such a great sitter and house guest. She was incredibly prompt any time we were communicating and was great about sharing images of our little ones with us each day. She even put our worries to rest on our first day of travels. We really appreciated her sincere care for our pets. We returned home to everything clean and in order. We even got compliments on her from our building staff. Highly recommend her services and we are anxious to hire her again!

Melanie was amazing with our shy pup! He wasn't feeling too great the first time she watched him, but she was flexible and communicative. I really appreciated her taking such good care of him.

Rachelle was the greatest taking care of my dog Waldo while I was traveling for work! Super easy to communicate with, sent a bunch of pictures throughout the day and also administered his medication, as he is a senior pet. I felt very assured he was in good hands.

Moses was excellent with our dogs, one of which is a senior and requires some special attention. He was very communicative at the time of booking and throughout the reservation, making sure to send photos of the pups and their activities regularly. Highly recommend and will definitely use his services again!

Yazmine was so loving, kind, and attentive to my dog and her specific needs. I just picked my 4 year old American Eskimo up last night after a week’s stay with Yazmine. I have never picked her up from any other boarding experience so happy and totally herself. 10/10 would recommend Yazmine to anyone wanting above and beyond personalized care for their pet.

10/10 recommend. I had a week-long work trip turn into a month, and had to find a cat sitter last minute. Ida and Travis jumped in without even meeting in-person (which is never my preference but I was really in a bind!). Their price point is super manageable for long term care (thank goodness). They were SO communicative and helpful - even though I was a 4 hours time difference away - they took such good care of my guy and even ran my roomba from time to time so I didn’t come back to a full fur palace. Trustworthy and reliable, I definitely hope to use them in the future. Best experience with pet sitting I’ve ever had!

Amy Beth was absolutely fantastic from meeting my cats before hand and sending updates and pictures during her stay! My cats loved her including my usually very shy kitty who needs a pill everyday. I came home to my place just as I left it and three very happy cats.

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!

Claire took wonderful care of our retired racing greyhound and treated our home with respect. Our dog was a little sick before we had to leave and Claire made sure Winny got her medicine and back to being herself. Claire was prompt, reliable and sent us the cutest pictures of our dog while we were away. Will definitely be asking Claire to dogsit again!

Patricia was an excellent and thoughtfil sitter for our two kittens! We had her house sit for the weekend with our two special needs kittens - she came by beforehand to meet them, asked all of the right questions, and then took excellent care of Caper and Olive. We wouldn't hesitate to have her take care of our cats again!
