“2nd time with Bobby and it was just as great as the first! This is the first time we’ve been comfortable to use the same sitter more than once and will def be going back next time! Thanks again!!”


“Brian was an absolutely wonderful sitter for Charlie. Couldn't leave your pet in better hands. Easy to work with, great communicator; Book him if he's available!”


“Ashley did such an incredible job watching my dog, I wish I could give her more than five stars. She was so attentive to his needs and was sure to send me so many pictures of my little guy while I was gone. I already told her we’d be using her again, because I’ve been so whole-heartedly impressed with her. She woke up early and stayed up late to adjust to my crazy schedule while traveling. Thank you so much, Ashley.”


“Kanade and her husband were such amazing sitters for my 2.5 year old Pom mix, Marsha. They treated her like she was one of their own and were so communicative with me. I'll definitely asking Kanade to watch her again soon. Thank you again!”


“German was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Hazel, during her first stay with him. It's always a relief to know your pet is in caring and capable hands. German was incredibly patient and gentle, and it was clear from the photos he sent that Hazel felt completely at ease and happy. He truly treated her like part of his own family. I highly recommend German and will definitely be using his services again!”


“Eric and his wife are absolutely fantastic with my cat. They've taken the best care of him as well as helping him get over his fear of strangers. He always comes back well groomed and happy!”



“Madeline was a great sitter! She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures to keep me updated. I felt very comfortable having her watch Coco while I was away. Would definitely recommend and use her again in the future!”



“I loved my regular updates! Ace made new friends and girlfriends. Nicole and Sam made him feel right at home. Sometimes Ace is weird and needy when he comes home and this time he was happy and curled up on his bed because he was so tired from making new friends!”


“I couldn’t be happier with the care Charlotte provided for my dog, Xeus! She was incredibly attentive and thoughtful, sending photos and updates throughout the day that kept me completely at ease. It felt like Xeus was getting nonstop love and attention, and I never had to worry for a second. This was hands down the best experience I’ve ever had with a dog sitter — I highly recommend Charlotte to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring care for their animals. 🐾”


“Kristina was awesome! She sent daily updates and pictures which I really appreciated, took Mika on daily walks, and really made me feel like she gave her special attention and care! We look forward to using Kristina in the future!”


“Nicole is very professional and communicative and we are already booking her to board our dogs with again. We received updates at least once a day. It’s clear that she and her family provide a safe and happy space for our pups. Nicole has ample experience and will work with you from booking through pick up to make sure you and your pups are at ease.”

“I couldn’t be more thrilled with the incredible care my energetic and loving dog received from Gina over the five days I was away! From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in great hands. Gina was so attentive, kind, and patient, and it was clear she went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt right at home. My dog is full of energy, and I was nervous about how he'd do in a new environment, but Gina handled it all perfectly. She kept him entertained with plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles, and I could tell he felt safe and loved the entire time. She sent me regular updates and pictures, which really put my mind at ease. I am so grateful for Gina's warmth, and dedication to making sure my dog had a good time. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and well-exercised—he even seemed a little sad to leave! I highly recommend Gina to anyone in need of a fantastic sitter for their dog. I’ll definitely be booking again! Thank you for everything!”


“Teresa was fantastic with our dog, Stella! She provided attentive, reliable care and kept us updated with photos and messages, making us feel confident Stella was in great hands.”


“Chloe is a phenomenal dogsitter! The whole process was easy, and Chloe herself is a very kind and considerate person. I loved her updates and felt great knowing Gus was in the absolute best of hands during my business trip.”


“Jacob took great care of my Reyna while I was away. She came home happy and it was clear she had a great time! Jacob sent me frequent updates and gave me great advice for taking care of my dog. Will always go back to him when Reyna needs a place to stay!”


“Great at communicating with me while I was out of the country; it’s how I knew he was in caring hands. John and Parker were great with my dog and his anxiety, getting him comfortable and working to make him feel welcome.”


“Julia was incredible! She handled my nervous beagle with ease and sent the absolute BEST pictures. Seriously, she should start a dog portrait gig on the side! Her dachshund Millie managed to get my dog out of her shell as she doesn’t usually play with other pups. Would absolutely recommend Julia to anyone looking for a sitter!”


“Sable was in great hands for her four night stay. Rachel took great care of Sable, communicated regularly, sent us a bunch of pictures and was a delight to interact with. Highly recommended!!”


“Virginia was an amazing Rover for our 2 dogs, Cleo and Louis! They seemed incredibly comfortable and loved in their few days with her. Virginia sent us photos and made sure to keep us updated on how they were doing.”


“Amazing sitter - her place is set up for a dog's dream, she sends frequent great pictures, and really seemed to treat my dog fantastically! Look forward to using her again.”

K’Shelle took great care of my pup! She was easy to communicate with and kept me updated throughout my trip! My dog had a blast with her resident doggo and came home tired, happy and well cared for. I would absolutely use K’Shelle again and highly recommend her to others !

Siva was absolutely incredible with our Cheesecake! She was so kind with our pup, gave us lots of updates and pics while we were gone, and made sure he got lots of play time and outdoor walks. She is someone we can trust and will definitely be booking her on our next trip!

Riemke & Nathan were awesome! They were super attentive and anticipated all of Norman’s needs! They were consistent with updates and were SO great being flexible with my crazy schedule. Norman had an amazing time and came back so happy and content!! I would highly recommend them and we will absolutely be back :)

Jina was great!!! Cyclops is a bit of a character and she was very accommodating towards him. I received multiple updates every day, which I loved. My dog doesn't always do well with the transition to care during a vacation, but he really took to her. She was very responsive and I would definitely rebook.

Our two had another great stay with Nicole & Sam! They have become our go-to sitters any time we are out of town. Every time we show up at their house they can barely get the door open before Gizmo & Buffy run straight inside to find their friends! Buffy loves playing with Edgar so much. She comes home TIRED lol.

We had a sitter cancel last minute, and Mei was available to watch our dog Billie. Wow am I glad! Mei updated us constantly with pictures, and was very responsive to anything we needed. I could tell our dog was very comfortable with her, and all her needs were taken care of throughout the whole stay. We will definitely be reaching out to Mei again to watch our Billie!

Klaire was excellent with Birdie! She was very professional, taking notes on all of Birdie’s care instructions. regularly sent us pictures, which helped our separation anxiety! Klaire’s apartment is also very spacious, so we knew Birdie would be comfortable. She obviously went above and beyond taking care of Birdie’s needs.

German was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Hazel, during her first stay with him. It's always a relief to know your pet is in caring and capable hands. German was incredibly patient and gentle, and it was clear from the photos he sent that Hazel felt completely at ease and happy. He truly treated her like part of his own family. I highly recommend German and will definitely be using his services again!
