1. Amanda T.
“Amanda is amazing as always, keeping our pups safe and cared for as well as providing plenty of pupdates. She was also gracious and flexible, helping to care for our animals under short notice after our travel plans got derailed by flight cancelations.”
2. Kayla N.
“Kayla spent the weekend at our home with our 3 golden retrievers and did an amazing job. She sent many pics/updates throughout the weekend. Our dogs were very happy and loved (she even took them out for pup cups!). Highly recommend her and will be booking again in the future :)”
3. MacKenzie H.
“MacKenzie is so thoughtful and responsive! My two dogs took to her quickly in our initial meeting and they seemed so happy and cared for. We would definitely recommend her and book her again!”
4. Kelsey L.
“When moving to a new area it can be difficult to find someone trust worthy of watching your pets. When Kelsey came over to meet my dogs she saw them and immediately had an ear to ear smile. I could tell right away they were going to be in good hands. I was so right - she even brought them toys that she had hand made! Normally my dogs are pretty stressed when I return home after someone else watches them, however I could tell they had a good time with her and we’re very mellow. -Thanks again Kelsey!”
5. Gabriella R.
“We have had Gabriella twice this month watching our sweet dog and house sitting while away. She did an amazing job! Our Sadie was well taken care of giving us peace while away knowing she was in good hands. We can’t wait to have her back the next time!”
6. Meredith D.
“Meredith is was amazing! She took a job last minute when we had a late cancellation with a different sitter and was great with communicating everything. My pets loved her and were well taken care of.”
7. Ashleigh J.
“We were very impressed with Ashleigh’s care for our two dogs. Our energetic sheepadoodle requires a lot of playtime, and Ashleigh dedicated nearly all her free moments to playing fetch with him. She also managed our house, watering the plants and handling the mail. Thanks to her, our vacation was fantastic. We’ll certainly reach out to her for our future trips.”
8. Jordan S.
“Jordan was a great pet sitter! She left the house cleaner than she found it and my dog and 2 cats absolutely loved her. She was super communicative and easy to work with. Thanks Jordan!”
9. Dave C.
“I would highly recommend Dave C. He instantly connected with my rescue Dalton who suffers from separation anxiety. I could tell right away that Dave was a gentle soul who loves animals. When I got home Dalton was giving Dave lots of attention instead of me like he normally would. Dalton was happy & that made me happy. I’ll definitely be hiring him again.”
10. Mia R.
“Mia has watched my 110lb yellow lab multiple times while I have been out of town. My dog isn’t much of a people person and takes awhile to warm up to people but he immediately trusted her to walk him. She has done a great job keeping him on task while walking and is very trustworthy!”
11. Brooke J.
“Brooke was an excellent dog sitter. She sent us updates and pics every day, took great care of our doggos, and our house. We will definitely work with her again!”
12. Aleksandr L.
“Alek is a responsible and amazing dog lover since he was a child. I do know he grew up with a variety of dogs including various goldens, spaniels, and even a rare basenji. He shows love for all dogs from small to large. He also has a fondness for cats! I would have no hesitation in entrusting him to anyone's beloved four-legged family member. He is to be trusted.”
13. Payton L.
“Payton did an amazing job with our two dogs! She was reliable and communicative. We came home to a clean house and happy pups. We will definitely book her again!”
14. Lucas B.
“Lucas has dog and cat sat for me several times and every time has been professional and attentive to the needs of my dog and cat.”
15. Carly P.
“Carly was absolutely great! Our dog got to stay comfortable in her own home and get all the snuggles and love and adventures with Carly. She was a very good communicator and was very good about updating with pictures, which is what we all want! We will definitely use her when we go out of town again.”
16. Lexie H.
“Lexie is an incredibly responsible and friendly person whom I have known for many years. I have paid her many times to watch our 8 year old poodle Roxy while being away on vacation and I can't recommend her enough! She always showed up at the times that we expected her too, and she regularly took Roxy on long walks around the neighborhood and let her out for bathroom breaks on a consistent schedule. Roxy absolutely loves Lexie and I have never had a problem trusting her! I cannot recommend her enough.”
17. Michelle M.
“Michelle is one of the best sitters we’ve had. She sent many updates, photos, played with all 4 pets, and even left the lights on for when we returned home. Would recommend to anyone, really happy and appreciative of her level of care. Very thoughtful and took excellent care of our babies.”
18. Hannah L.
“Hannah is fantastic! She took such great care of our dog, and sent a bunch of photo updates while we were away. I definitely recommend her for any pet sitting needs! 😊🐶”
19. Gianna M.
“Thank you Gianna for taking such good care of all my boys! All four were relaxed, happy and obviously well cared for when we returned. Would definitely book again.”
20. Chay H.
“We were lucky enough to book Chay for drop ins and then tack on a last minute trip having her house sit. She was friendly and comfortable with our pets and we loved receiving pictures of them every day!”
