“Madeline has stayed with Harley multiple times now, and she’s been incredibly attentive to his needs, communicative about how he’s doing, and flexible. She’s an awesome sitter that I’m glad Harley and I can rely on!”
2. Devyn M.
“Devyn took care of our dog overnight and took excellent care of her. She diligently reviewed the care instructions in advance and was very communicative. We are new dog parents and it was our first time leaving our dog and Devyn was extremely understanding and accommodating. She left our house in good order. Would highly recommend her services and we hope to use her again!”
3. Anais D.
“Anais took excellent care of Rumple, made sure she had all the particulars and asked thoughtful questions to be prepared to care for our guy. She even dealt with an embarrassing lock out situation that was completely my fault with patience and grace. I eagerly recommend her services and will definitely request her again next time Rumple needs company. Your pet is in great hands with Anais.”
4. Elisa E.
“Elisa took such good care of Luna and Yoshi! She kept me updated during my trip every single day and I came home to happy fur babies and a CLEAN and orderly home. Thank you Elisa for peace of mind in knowing my doggos were in great hands.”
5. Ariena J.
“Ariena took great care of our pup while we were away. She sent lots of photos to help with my “mom guilt” so I knew that he was being well cared for. She stayed at our place and she left it well cared for! I will definitely be using her again for our future pet sitting needs!”
6. Hannah T.
“Hannah was FANTASTIC! She took care of our 2 large dogs all day. Really helped us out last minute. Our dogs loved her. She sent us photos all day and updates. They looked so relaxed and cuddled up with her all day. She fed them on time and followed all directions we gave her. We had some people coming to the house and she made sure the dogs stayed out of the way. We felt so an ease with her at our home and knew our boys were safe. We recommend her highly!”
7. Dea O.
“Dea was awesomewe! Great communication, she sent plenty of photos and videos, and I feel completely confident with my doggie in her care. The best!”
8. Lucero B.
“Lucero did an excellent job caring for our one year old puppy. We had never left him overnight with anyone and Lucero followed our detailed instructions, gave us a daily summary with photos and showed our puppy a great time. We were able to enjoy our vacation because of the attentive care and clear communication provided by Lucero. I highly recommend Lucero and look forward to having her care for our puppy again.”
9. Eva E.
“Eva did a great job on short notice. She took care of my cat and was flexible. My cat seemed to be happy with the experience adjusted to her well. I trusted her in a nice apartment with expensive objects around and I believe you can do the same. I think that she has a bright future ahead of her and I would recommend her for visiting or staying the night with your pet. Id use her services again when Im on a trip.”
10. Rebecca C.
“Rebecca has so far sat for both of my dogs twice, and I can confidently say she did a wonderful job. I have a 4-year-old dog and an 8-week-old puppy, and she came in really open minded to them both being at such different stages in life and not being used to many other people. She's really patient and was willing to help me out during an overnight work shift, which I really appreciate. I felt at ease knowing Rebecca was going to be there which allowed me to not stress over the pups while at work which is a wonderful feeling. I really trust her, and I look forward to working with her again in the future!”
11. Diana L.
“Diana helped us out last minute by watching Ralphie a few days before Christmas. She communicated regularly with us throughout the stay and brought walking outfits for Ralphie. We’re very grateful to her!”
12. Violet T.
“Violet was exceptional with our dog. He struggles with separation anxiety and took to her quickly! She sent so many photos and updates I never had to wonder how he was doing.”
13. Stephanie Q.
“Stephanie sent regular updates and was very easy to maintain contact with. When I came home from my long weekend away, both of my babies (Charlie Barker, 10yo pibble mix; Angrboda, 2yo longhair housecat) were very comfortable and happy. Stephanie stayed over while I was away, and left the house tidy for when I got back. I really appreciated the care she gave my pets, and I loved working with her!”
14. Ian P.
“Ian walks my dog on a daily basis while I'm at work and you can hear the neighbors dogs barking like they want to go to, I think it’s really 😊 . Ian has been very reliable and has never missed a day. Ian quickly bonded with my dog and has provided excellent care. Ian is very caring and conscientious.”
15. Fabiola M.
“Fabiola did a great job house sitting and caring for my babies. She sent me pics and videos while I was away Which I greatly appreciate. I could see that they were happy and well taken care of. I also appreciate returning to a clean home after a long trip. I will absolutely call on Fabiola again in the future.”
16. Giselle A.
“Giselle did a great job house sitting for our dog over the weekend. Our dog seemed minimally stressed (we just moved and it’s hard for him to be in a new environment), she sent great updates, and left the house clean. Will definitely use her again!”
17. Monica E.
“Monica is an absolute gem! From the moment I met her, I knew my fur babies were in safe and loving hands. She truly goes above and beyond to make pets feel comfortable and at home. Monica is not only reliable and trustworthy but also has an amazing way of connecting with animals. My dogs, who can be hyperactive, loved her immediately. Monica sent regular updates and adorable pictures, which really put my mind at ease. It’s clear she loves what she does, and it shows in the care and attention she gives. I highly recommend Monica to any pet parent looking for someone special to take care of their furry friend!”
18. Meril D.
“I am honored to write a review! Meril is the ONLY boarder that we use when we are out of town. Our dog gets lots of outdoor, run, and exploration time. Meril is punctual, communicative and caring. We highly recommend her!”
19. Jesika & Jyhikeen G.
“Jesika & Jyhikeen have stayed with our two cats for multiple week-long sits, and each time we return to a clean house and happy cats. They are flexible, friendly, and considerate — we're always happy to have them back!”
20. Niobe N.
“Niobe has house sat for me many times. I have a puppy who is high maintenance and needs a lot of attention. Niobe always makes an effort to play with my puppy and give her lots of TLC! I would 100% recommend her!”
