Simone was great! She was right on time, did all the little things we asked of her, and most importantly, played a lot with our very energetic pup! She also provided lots of fun pics and videos.

Shannon was an amazing choice for a puppy visit! She kindly took care of my high energy 10 week old puppy for 30 min when I had to go to the office. She was very responsive and followed all instructions. Wrigley was lucky to have her help!

Sid was very attentive, responsive, and caring while looking after our cat. He provided regular updates, including photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear that he genuinely cared about our cat’s well-being by taking the time to ensure he met her particular needs when she displayed some sadness about us being away. We highly recommend Sid to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Will definitely be book again!

Chelsea is a great option when it comes to trusting your pets with someone. She is a great caregiver all around and loves to be around animals. I have trusted her with my dogs and cats through the many years that I’ve known her. She is also great with any other pets you may have like birds, fish, reptiles, or other small animals. She has experience with all of these pets from her time working at a family owned pet store.

Brian was very quick in replying and helpful in taking care of Orion. He even helped cleaning up a messy situation. Based off his photos, Orion had a great time playing in the grass with him! I definitely recommend Brian for your pet.

When it comes to pets, Christine (Christy) is as responsible, thoughtful, loving, and selfless as they come! She gave her late dog, Teddy, a safe, healthy, and love-filled life for over a decade. She goes out of her way to show kindness to others' pets and is intuitive about what pets (and their owners) may need. With her balance of energetic activity (read: loves dog walks!) and appreciation for down time (read: snuggling on the couch with a furry friend), Christy's versatility makes her a great caretaker and companion for pets with all personalities and needs. Christy is also one of the most responsible people I know; with exceptional time management skills, she follows through on every obligation and makes others (and their pets) a priority. I would trust Christy with my own dog any day!

Allie was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our Beebee for over a week while we were out of town. She was punctual, thoughtful, gave medicine, sent pictures and updates, and followed our long list of requests with no problem at all. We are so grateful for her and will absolutely book with her again!
