Prabha took great care of our Andy— she was attentive to his needs, played with him, and asked all the right questions to ensure he would be safe while also having fun. Prabha also walked Andy well, and we appreciate her follow ups while away. We with Andy look forward to having her care for him again soon. ?

Gilberto was wonderful! He took such good care of Chadwick and the house. He was also very understanding when we had to change the dates of our trip bc of Covid. He listened to all of Chadwick’s care instructions and asked us if he had any questions. We checked in regularly, but also were able to relax knowing that Gilberto was taking great care of our boy. He’s very kind, and we look forward to working with him again!

Meave came and house sat for our dog Bentley over the weekend, who has separation anxiety. She took such great care of Bentley, was accommodating to his needs, and sent the best photo updates throughout the stay. Would absolutely request her in the future!

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!

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.

Caitlin was wonderful. Shamus is a sweet but special needs dog and she was great with him. She also took good care of my place and sent great photos and videos to keep me updated. We would definitely use her the next time I need someone.

About: For dog walks, I can’t do long term reoccurring walks, the longest I can do is a week! For house sitting, the longest I can stay is up to 5 days! I grew up with 3 dogs and 2 cats. Animals are my passion! I’ve have over 300 services completed on wag so I have experience with lots of breeds! Pets services is currently my only job and i’m pretty much available the whole time, so I have plenty of time to hang with your fur baby and meet their needs! I currently live in an apartment with a fenced in yard area, so if you need to book a boarding service, I would gladly except!

This was a rushed trip on my part to deal with a family situation. Latisha couldn’t have been nicer to eliminate some stress for me. She had no problems taking on house sitting and changing our normal schedule a little bit. My dog has been around here quite a bit now, so I know he was less sad to see me leave. Just like when she walks Smokey during the week, she kept me updated on what was going on. I definitely did not have to worry about Smokey while I was away.

I've seen firsthand Jessie's dedication and love for her two cats, Artie and Moo. She's very attentive to their varying needs, which involves some juggling since Artie is an older Siamese and Moo is a younger, active former stray cat. She makes sure both are comfortable and get the attention they need. Jessie is a great caregiver because she truly loves her feline family members.

Betul did a great job taking care of my dog, a 13 year old Chihuahua/Terrier mix. She shared photos and details of what they did on their walks and how my dog was generally adjusting to being in a new space. When I picked up my dog, I could tell he was very comfortable with her. You can tell she genuinely loves does and wants to make sure they are happy and comfortable. Absolutely recommend.

Mitch is wonderful with my two dogs, who are very different to each other. He is patient and understanding with my old, grumpy dog and plays with my high energy puppy. He is also great about providing updates on how the dogs do when he visits.
